Bosco arrived at the station still wearing his dad’s clothes. Kenneth, Bernice and Linda hadn’t arrived yet; he sat down in his chair and looked at some files. Charmaine walked out of her room and saw Bosco’s back.
“Sorry sir, but your not suppose to be here.”
Bosco turned around, “Morning madam.”
Charmaine closely at Bosco still not recognising who he is under the grandpa hat, “Who are you?”
Kenneth, Bernice and Linda walked into the headquarters, “Who’s the old man?” Kenneth asked.
Bosco takes his hat off, “It’s me.”
The room in filled with silence as they all stare at Bosco, “What are you wearing?” Linda asks breaking the silence.
“I don’t see anything wrong with what I’m wearing,” Bosco looks down at his clothes.
“You look like a fool,” Charmaine says.
“You look like so old,” Bernice added.
“Really?” Bosco said happily knowing everyone thought he was old, “Anyways, madam I was looking through the files that Linda gave me and the overseas account is a company registered under Ada Choi’s name. I checked up further on this company of hers and it’s an investment company branching off the Grand Jewel’s.”
“But why would Ada Choi’s investment company transfer large amount of money into Kenny’s account?” Linda asked.
Charmaine took the file from Bosco and had a look at it, “It says here that Kenny manages this company on behalf of Ada Choi.”
“Do you think Ada Choi was involved with the robbery and the murder? If she was why would she do that?” Bernice asked.
Charmaine tapped her pen on her head and thought, “Kenneth I want you to check with the insurance company and see if Ada Choi made a claim after the robbery. Bernice and Linda check the Grand Jewel’s companies history I want you to gather as much information as possible.”
Bosco raised his hand, “What do I do madam?”
Charmaine looked at his clothes, “you can get changed out of your old man clothes.”
Steven who had just finished bailing out one of his clients had stopped at the door and listened in to the orders Charmaine gave. He walked out of the station and called Ada, “Ms. Choi they’re going to check your company history and the insurance company.”
Ada spoke over the phone, “How is your progress with Raymond Lam.”
“I’m working on it, I just need a bit more time and soon he will out of the picture,” Steven assured Ada.
“Good, remember this is your last chance.”
It was now 1:32pm, Charmaine stayed in her office whilst everyone else went out to eat. She looked at the time and called Raymond, the phone rang for a while but no one picked up. She dialled again, but again no one answered the phone. She rang the firm but Rain told her that Raymond didn’t come in today. Charmaine could feel something wasn’t right; she grabbed her bag and left the station.

*Alexander Building, Floor 38 Apartment A, 1:51pm*
Charmaine stood in front of Raymond’s door and rang the doorbell several times but no one answered. She started banging on the door, “Why isn’t he answering?”
Charmaine ran back to her apartment and took out her toolbox. She took out a bunch of tools then ran back to Raymond’s apartment and started unscrewing his door down. She finally took the door down and ran inside and straight to Raymond’s bedroom. At the same time Raymond came out of the bathroom and saw his door being taken down.
“What’ going on? Where’s my door?” he ran to the front door.
Charmaine heard Raymond’s voice and ran out into the living room.
“What are you doing? And did you tear my door down?” Raymond asked with a very hoarse sick voice.
“Yes I tore your door down, just wanted to see if you are ok?” Charmaine said now feeling so stupid for tearing his door down.
Raymond picked his door up off the ground and out it against the wall, he walked back into his room. Charmaine watched him and had the feeling he was angry.
He walked back out of his room, “Here,” and handed her a key.
“What’s this for?” she asked.
Raymond took both of her hands and held them tightly, “Next time just use this key to come in so you don’t have to tear down my door.”
Charmaine actually never expected Raymond to give her a key, “Are you sure you want to give this to me?”
“Why wouldn’t I give it to you? Why are you scared?” Raymond said with a cheeky grin on his face.
Charmaine gave him a tough look, “Why would I be scared? You should be the one who is scared.”
“Why would I be scared? I’m the one who gave you a key.”
“Because it means that you trust me coming into your house without your permission.”
Raymond laughed a little, “you came in my house without my consent today and you also ripped my door down, I’d rather you do it with a key.” Raymond took Charmaine’s key chain that was hanging on her belt and attached the key on it, “There, now you can’t take it off.”

*Outside Kowloon Police Station, 2:15pm*
Myolie had been waiting outside for Bosco to return for almost thirty minutes. Bosco who was still wearing his grandpa arrived at the station with Kenneth, Bernice and Linda staying at least three meters away from him.
“Hey! Myolie what are you doing here?” Bosco said approaching Myolie.
Myolie looked carefully under the grandpa hat, “Bosco?”
Bosco spun around a little, “What do you think?”
“Why are you wearing that?”
“I’m changing my style to be older,” Bosco said very proudly of his new look.
Myolie frowned a little, “Bosco take my advice, I don’t think your new style is that great. You look so old.”
“Are you kidding me? I love my new style, it’s totally me…”
“Bosco just take my advice into consideration,” Myolie said.
“I will think about it then.”

*Alexander Building, Lobby 6:50pm*
Ron and Bernice strolled into the lobby holding a bag containing the new Chinese Chess set, “Do you want to come over for dinner tonight?” Ron asked taking the bag from Bernice.
Bernice held onto Ron’s other hand stopped at the elevator, “Aren’t you having the cooking battle with Bosco today?”
“I think I should cook something for my sister, I don’t think she’s had a decent meal for a long time plus I feel bad for leaving her to eat dinner alone every night. Did she leave the same time as you today?” Ron asked pressing the button.
“Nope.”
Ron pushed his glasses up and looked over at the front door and saw an old looking man walking towards them, “Hey Bernice that old man looks so familiar, have we seen him somewhere?”
Bernice turned around and looked, “I cannot believe he is wearing that.”
“Who’s wearing what?” Ron squinted his eyes and looked carefully, “Is that Bosco? What is he wearing?”
“Hey guys,” Bosco lifted his hat off and greeted them.
Ron and Bernice turned away from Bosco embarrassed from just looking at him. The elevator door opened and Ron and Bernice stepped inside, Bosco was about to follow in but saw Jessica walking into the lobby.
“I’ll go up later,” he told the both of them.
Jessica saw Bosco still wearing, “Still wearing that?”
“Sure am, do you like it?”
Jessica started laughing, “Bosco you look old enough to be my grandfather, and seriously your old clothes were fine.”
Bosco took a quick glance in his reflection from the elevator, “I can’t look like her grandfather,” he mumbled to himself.

*Alexander Building, Floor 38 Apartment B 6:55pm*
“Dinners ready!” Charmaine shouted out to Raymond from the kitchen. Ever since Ron started having his little cooking battles with Bosco he was never around, Charmaine and Raymond thought it was the best time to have dinner together without begin spotted. Also since the both of them can’t cook they decided to take this time to learn in the process.
Raymond ran into the kitchen and helped Charmaine carry out the two dishes she cooked. “What is this?” he said looking half burnt food.
Charmaine walked out of the kitchen carrying two bowls of rice, “I have no idea, I found the recipe from one of Ron’s cook book. It doesn’t look that great right?”
“It looks and smells great! I want to have this for the rest of my life,” Raymond said trying not to be sarcastic.
Charmaine stopped and listened to key rattling noises, “Can you hear that?”
“Hear what?” Raymond digging into the half burnt food.
Charmaine listened intently, her eyes widened, “Oh no, Ron’s home!”
