Ryan *whispers to Wallace while searching*: This guy is nuts. He should let more cops come here and assist them, not letting us search.
Wallace: He trusts us.
Ryan: Enough to work us like dogs?
Wallace: You got issues? Grow up, man.
Ryan: You’re always the same, Wallace. Always trying to point out my weaknesses like in high school! *smiles slyly*
Cyndi: Hey, I found something!
Everyone gathers around to see what Cyndi found. There on the area near the lake is a shiny bracelet. They kneel down to look at it.
Wallace: It’s Alyssa’s.
Kenneth reaches into his jacket pocket to get a pair of gloves. He puts it on before reaching for the bracelet. He inspects it carefully before reaching into his other pocket to get a plastic bag and put the bracelet inside. Before he puts it in all the way, Wallace yells out, “Wait!”. Kenneth stops and looks at Wallace.
Wallace: There are some scratches on the inside.
The others look at him.
Wallace: It wasn’t there before.
Kenneth looks at the inside again and finds the scratches.
Wallace: It looks like she’s trying to leave us a message.
Kenneth: It looks like a J here. *pointing at what looks like the beginning of a word*
Ryan: Jocelyn?
Wallace: Don’t jump to conclusions.
Ryan: Who else could it be?
Kenneth: I think it said Jade.
The others look again.
Wallace: It does look like it.
Brad: Hey!
Ryan: What?
Brad: How come Justin and Lenny didn’t see this? They were here before us. They spent like half an hour inspecting this area.
George: You mean they might have missed it on purpose or planted it themselves?
Brad: They could have. Even if Lenny had miss it, Justin’s really sharp. Remember that time we did the needle case? If Justin hadn’t found the needle, we wouldn’t have linked it to Mr. Tong.
George: Yea. I remember.
Kenneth: They live around here?
Brad *scratches his head*: I’m not sure. But they possibly could have mention they have some friends here. Or was it relatives?
George: It would seem too much of a giveaway though, right?
Ryan: Let’s go back and ask them then!
Brad: We’re not crazy.
George: They would put their guard up even more.
Kenneth: How about we just go back there like nothing happened and see how they react first.
Wallace: Sounds good. Don’t want to give anything away.
The group walks back to where Justin and Lenny are, guarding the four masked people that were captured and handcuffed before. Justin and Lenny walk up to greet the group.
Lenny: Did you find anything?
Brad: No. I can’t believe it. These people did a good job of copying the other group.
Justin: Maybe it isn’t a copy-cat job after all?
Brad: But Kenneth said it’s a copy-cat job.
Justin: I’m just covering all bases.
Kenneth: Let’s not argue anymore. We need to get out of this place since the sun’s setting soon. It’s going to be quite messy staying here longer.
Wallace: What about Vincent and Alyssa?
Kenneth: I’ll send a team out here to take over for us. They’ll have night equipments to search. We’ll go back to the station to take in statements first and then go on from there.
Wallace: Ok. I guess that’ll do for now.
They all agree.
Kenneth: Wallace, you and your two friends can ride with me to the station while the other four are taking the other suspects. Leave your car here. I want the night crew to inspect it too.
Wallace, Cyndi, and Ryan follow Kenneth while Brad, George, Justin, and Lenny go to their cars. Before they could get in, Kenneth turns around.
Kenneth: Oh, Brad, you go with Justin while George go with Lenny. Justin and Lenny had been working hard searching the area. I don’t want them to get even more exhausted, so Brad and George should drive.
Brad & George: Yes, sir!
Kenneth turns back to the scene ahead of him and walks toward his car again. The others follow again.
Ryan: Can I sit in front with you, sir?
Kenneth: You can sit anywhere you wish. And call me Kenneth or Ken. I don’t like formalities.
They all get in the car. Kenneth waits for Brad and George to pull out before doing so. He wants to have a good view of the other cars.
Kenneth: I should have called Joey earlier so she could come here. It would have been better if she and some other guys switch over. If anything happens on the way, we’ll lost contact with all leads.
Ryan: We still have the bracelet.
Kenneth & Wallace: It’s not much.
Both guys smile before Kenneth goes on again.
Kenneth: Are you a cop yourself?
Wallace: No. I’m an investment advisor.
Kenneth: Too bad you’re not a cop.
Ryan: I always wanted to be one. *smiling*
Kenneth & Wallace: You don’t have the potential.
Ryan: Are you two twins?
Wallace: I’m serious. You can’t even think like a cop in the first place. How can you be one?
Ryan *shrugs*: I could try. Those areas could be developed later.
Wallace smiles, not wanting to say anything to Ryan anymore. Kenneth stays silent also, only watching the cars ahead for strange movements.
They arrive at the police station safely after half an hour.
