The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

After they got home, Erick left immediately for work but before leaving he made sure that his number was saved in the newly bought cellphone of Elle.

He wanted to check on her from time to time. He would know if she was fine. And if there would be an emergency, she could used it to contact him or the police.

He also made a mental note to improve the security of the house by putting CCTVs and alarms so that he could monitor the people who walked around the area.

He never knew what if one day the people who are looking for her could trace her location. That's why as a precautionary measures he decided to heightened the security system at home.

A few minutes past 1:00 when he arrived at the office. His team noticed his bright and cheerful mood when he entered the office. They greeted him.

Rose whispered to April, "I think you are worried for nothing. I think Chief Lee is doing fine and he doesn't seem to have a problem."

April frown and nodded in agreement "I agree, he does not look like a stressed person just like what Bryan claimed to be."

"I can't explain but he seemed to be inspired. He has a vibrant vibe. Did something good happen this morning?" Rose was puzzled.

Their conversation was interrupted when Allen called for them. "Team Alpha, Captain Jason told us to come at the conference room right now. We will be having our meeting." he told them. Everyone went to the conference room.

"I will give you ten minutes to reorganize everything that you have gather regarding this case especially information related to Catseye then we will report it one by one." Jason said to them.

Everyone responded "Noted Captain!"

Everyone were focused with their assignments when Bryan approached Erick "What did you do? I thought you will just be a little late but you actually missed half day."

"Sergeant are you done with your work? Captain asks us to prepare our reports? Go there and do it!" Erick just gave him a smirk and shoved him off. Bryan had no choice but comply and he stopped pestering Erick.

"What an Ungrateful person! If you just knew what I had gone through this morning with the girls and what I did to cover for you... you wouldn't dare to push me off like this. Hmmp. Just you wait Erick Lee. I am the one who will interrogate you later."

Ten minutes passed and they were about to start the meeting when an unexpected visitor arrived.

Selena Arison personally visited their headquarter to ask them about the progress of their investigation. Selena entered the conference hall together with Jane. Her posture and elegance stood out and all eyes were on her.

"Miss Arison what brings you here?" It was Erick who greeted her since the other people were still starstruck when she arrived.

Selena greeted Erick with her sweetest smile and said "Just call me Selena. Sorry for intruding and coming here without asking for your permission. But I just wanted to know the progress regarding my father's case." Noticing the silence of everyone Selena apologized.

Erick nodded "You came at the right time. We were about to discuss it. Please come and join us." He signaled her to sit in one of the vacant seat. After a while others recovered from their shocks caused by the unexpected arrival of gorgeous lady in front of them. Her family was known in the business world and loved by many people because of their charity works however unfortunate thing happened. The head of the family was murdered.

"Welcome to our headquarter Miss Selena. By the way, I am Captain Jason Smith, the head of Special Task Force Eagle and these are the members of my team, Jane our the programmer, Carl our profiler Marie and Allen our agents on field." Jason introduced to her the entire members of Special Task Force Eagle. Selena smiled politely with them as sign of her acknowledgement.

This time Erick introduced his team. " This is April our profiler, you already met her before when we visited the mansion to investigate the crime scene." Selena nodded and she glanced at April exchanged smile with her "Yes, I remember her."

Erick continued to introduce the rest of his team. " This is Rose our programmer, this is Bryan and June our field investigators. They are the members of Team Alpha Cinco."

"It's nice meeting you all. Thank you for your handwork. I know you are all doing your best in order to catch the murderer of my father." Selena said to them, sadness appeared on her eyes upon mentioning her father's death.

"Team Alpha Cinco was originally assigned with your father's case but since Catseye was involved in this, Special Task Force Eagle joined together with Team Alpha Cinco. Our task force main objective is to catch the assassin Catseye." Jason explained to her. "I think it is appropriate if Erick will the one who will share with you the progress of your father's case since this is their focus." Jason added and he turned to Erick.

"Miss Selena, actually we are planning to visit you since we would like to ask you a few questions. A few days ago we got some clue and based on the information gathered from our witnesses even though we have not gathered any substantial evidence that will confirm Catseye's Identity we have narrowed down our suspects into two persons. They were the most suspicious people during the banquet, first is the bodyguard who accompanied Jorge and second is the waitress who spilled drinks into your father's suite causing him to leave the hall." He said spontaneously.

Selena frown as she remembered the commotion happened that night. "Yes, I could remember. Everything was going smoothly that night but a commotion happened because of that clumsy waitress." Selena gasped as realization came to her. "How could she?! My father treated her well that night. He didn't even punish her." angered resurfaced to her beautiful face.

"These are the photographic sketches of those two." Bryan gave her the sketches. She examined it.

Erick continued "We also found out that Peter went missing two days before your Birthday and he appeared that night together with that bodyguard. We investigated it but no one from Peter's side knows this person and they confirmed that Peter Blake do not have bodyguard who look like that man. We also investigated the waitress who was a new hired and we traced her." He paused to observe Selena's reaction. He knew it was hard for her losing her beloved father. Selena was silent and she looked at him in the eyes intently telling him that she was okay and she wanted him to continue.

"We went to her house but what we didn't expect that time we would met another person with the same name of the waitress. Upon investigating further we found out that someone used her identity, used her name and pretended to be her to apply as waitress to easily enter the mansion and avoid suspicion."

"We assumed that either one of them is Catseye and the other one is the accomplice. They are working together. This is the end of our lead." After Erick finished speaking, no one inside the conference room dared to make any noise. They could feel the gloomy atmosphere inside as they glanced at Selena. Selena's shapely brows furrowed into a knot as she gripped the sketches before her. Her beautiful face could not hide the rage in her heart. She wanted Catseye to pay for her father's death.
