A thrilled scream disrupted the peaceful night of Franchetti.
Louise, an old lady called the police and claimed that her daughter, Laura, had been killed.
“Hey James, guess what?”
“What?”
“Chicken butt,” Sam joked humorously. James stared at Sam, pitying him.
“How did you pass the exam and become an investigator with that nonexistent intelligence of yours?” James asked sarcastically. Before Sam could protest, their boss, Josh, walked into the room and made an emergency announcement.
“Yesterday night, we received a case. The department chair picked you guys to lead the case. Best of luck to the both of you. Here’s the information,” Josh said as he handed them a folder, “Get going!” Without another word needed, they quickly scanned through the …show more content…
I’ll definitely show you what I’ve got in my brain for this case.” Sam told James.
“Relax, someone died. You shouldn’t make a joke out of this.”
“I’m not!”
“Yes you are. If I wasn’t driving the car right now, I would definitely give you a lecture.” The two investigators started their argument and before they knew it, they’ve arrived at the crime scene.
They quickly parked their van and rushed into the crime scene- a small three-story house. Inside the house, everything was structured and tidy. Even the atmosphere gave off a calm, rosy fragrance. It was impossible believe that a murder occurred here.

“This is so easy.” Sam celebrated. “Don’t be so cocky Sam. I feel like that something is slightly off. What can Marcus’s motive be?” James suggested as the door creaked. Josh walked into the room and announced the latest news,

“What,” Sam and James both questioned on the same time.
“He couldn’t have been the murderer, by the fact that the real murderer had also killed him. But if he isn’t the culprit, then who is?” James asked as he and Sam both stared at each other in incredulously.
For this narrative entry, I attempt to write it in third person point of view. I figured it’ll be easier to write a mystery story if the narrative knew what everyone is thinking. For this story, I used detective duo. Sam is intended to be funny and goofy so I can make James appeal to be more mature to the readers. Afterward in the story, the case will turn into a lock room trope since Marcus, who they expected to be the killer is dead. The two detectives will go back to that house and they will find more evidences which eventually lead to the real murderer. By the way, Louise is the
