New Partner, Li Chen!

He wanted to get someone's help because deep inside, he already knew that he was totally a a newbie and have no intelligence to fight someone like those Dragons' Edge Group. Moriarty was known to be the arch nemesis of Holmes so this was the fight he never knew existed.

Then, his phone vibrated and the game sent a notification about the item he got when he done past cases. The new partner ticket. It says that:

[A possible partner is nearby. Your choice will affect whether you will be able to have him or her in your side or waste the opportunity. This is the name of the possible partner, Li Chen.]

What the hell? She will be my partner. For pete's sake, I don't want her because she is a woman because I don't want my friend to be in danger. I won't be selfish even if I need help, what if the Dragons' Edge was able to kill her.

I need to take the risk though, ahhh, it's hard to choose. Okay, just ask her if she wants to have a case and be a detective and accept her choice.

I let out a sigh and went to Li Chen"s room but she wasn't there. I saw her at the computer desk with headphone on her well, head.

I took the courage to face her, "Li Chen, we need to talk," she took out the headphones and looked at me.

"What about exactly?" she was now serious and the atmosphere was turning kinda heavy.

"I have a proposal to make, I want you to become my partner, please?" She looked at me at the eye for a long time before talking.

"Yeah but for one condition, try me in a case first, if we solve it, I join officially." I was excited I couldn't think straight literally.

I went to my room and looked at my phones list of missions.

[Easy level case: a group of criminal mastermind was able to wreak havoc in a street, they were still small but they have illegal drugs, guns and stuff.]

[Hard level case: An arsonist was on the loose and reports of burning houses was sent.]

[Extreme level case: A mafia was terrorizing a town and now, they will be having a transaction of illegal drugs will happen in a certain area.]

I thought about it picked the hard one, it was the only mission easy for me but I am not sure for Li Chen. I mean she was a newbie.

I talked to Li Chen again, "Li Chen, we will work a case together and you will be able to train that brain of yours. A case of an arsonist on loose."

"Wait, I heard that before, he was called the burner but I don't know more." I remembered something later on.

I took out my phone and saw the notification about the case.

[He already burned 12 houses. His original name was Xi Meng and he was convicted as arsonist again. He had a dark past and his burning pattern was every house in a street. He is now in street, Qui Vei.]

In our street, seriously.

"Tomorrow at six, get ready because we will hit the police station." she stood up and packed her things and slept.

She is really serious about this job. I better get my ass ready for the big day tomorrow.

--------------

It was five when I woke up, I already prepared myself so I can be early. After that, I made the last touch of what I need to bring.

I went to Li Chen's room to see if she was ready, and she is...

She is really serious on what she is doing and that determination is what I really admire from her.

"Are you ready, Li Chen?" she went out towards me and nodded.

"Okay, let's go!" We both go outside the apartment and looked around first at our street. Gosh, a house was burnt by the side of the apartment.

We need to know who is this arsonist before our only home be destroyed.

"Li Chen, do you know what does that means?" I pointed the house nearby that was burned.

"Yes, ours is next!" we need to rush to the police station to get more information we can get.

I hate to lose my only home with my friend and neither lose a partner and case.

"We need to hurry up before night or else, many people us included will be affected." We ran towards the police station.

Our first case together started but the atmosphere is quite dire and not for joking dudes.

But is it quite a coincidence for me to pick the arsonist case or I just pick it up.

I just talked to myself that to be calm breath and do not think about the future cause every time I do it, it some times freaks me out.

"Hey, are you okay?" Li Chen looked at me confused, I do seem kinda weird though.

"Yeah, I am fine by the way are we near yet." she shooked her head and looked at the road.

"Okay, let's go continue our journey." She ran before me though.

First mission starts now...
