Chapter 26: Unsolved Case: Felicia

"I don't think this is a good idea, lily", I ignored Louie as I tied my shoes. It's already dark and the night is deep, I hoist my bag and looked at Louie, "I got this, just distract the police. Open the map"

Louie opened the map and turn the flashlight on. "This is where the files being stored and you'll distract the police. I'll try to get the file of Felicia", Louie is staring at the map, hesitated.

"Louie, you'll be fine. I got this" I said as I pat his back and smile. I fished my phone out of the pocket. It's already 11 in the evening, I wore my mask and went to the police station.

"Yes, police officer. I don't remember such details." I heard Louie, speaking in my earpiece. He is now distracting the police officer, I'm outside of the police station and looked at the map where the files were stored. I looked up and pulled my rope out of the bag. The rope with a hook in it so that it can grab something up there and I can hoist myself up. I throw the rope in the air and tried to pull it if it grabbed something so that I can hoist myself up. As I reach the top, I look inside. It's dark but a little lights of the alarm was seen.

"When it runs away..." I can still hear Louie distracting the police. I didn't know Louie had such skill. I wear my gloves and pulled my circular glass cutter. I put the suction into the glass and measure the diameter so that I can fit it inside the hole. I slowly move the glass cutter and made a circle. I dropped my rope inside and tie it to the nearest object that it can be held. I slowly went inside and pulled out a powder out of my pocket.

Laser Alarms. The red laser alarms appear as the powder spreads into the room. Okay, how should I get to find the storage that has Felicia's name on it. I took a deep breath and made a quiet jump.

I hover my flashlight to the names that start with F. With this laser, all I need to do is dodge it. I remember how I used to join aerobics in my previous school, I took a deep breath and do somersaults. I looked at the storage boxes that starts with a letter F.

Felicia. Felicia... not here. I looked to the other storage boxes where the solved case files was stored. I did somersaults again to dodge the laser alarms.

Felicia... Felicia…

I noticed a folder with a name of her, I grabbed it and looked inside its contents. A picture of Felicia before she ends her life was clipped on the side of the folder, just like what I saw on that newspaper. She is beautiful. But why would the police said it was solved? I took my phone out and took a picture of the contents and put the file back on the storage room when a sudden ringtone interrupted me, it's my phone. Shit. The sound of my phone's ringtone filled the room, "What was that...?"

I overheard the question from my earpiece. Judging from the sound, it is from the police officer. "Maybe, it's your imagination, police officer. Look, I really-"

Louie was cut off by his sentence. My eyes widened in panic, I have to get out of here. "Louie, abort!" I said as I quickly did another somersaults but I was detected by the laser that cause another alarm. "Someone was on the Police Record Room" I overheard. I quickly grabbed my rope and climb myself up. Shit.

"Honey, where are you?! It's already this late. Where are you?!"

Mom's voicemail on my phone, I quickly untied the rope and pull it, put in inside my bag. I jumped and caused me to unbalance in the ground. I quickly got up and press my earpiece.

"Louie" "Yeah?' he asked.

"I got the files now. Because of the police, go home. "

"Wait, where are you?" Louie asked in a quiet way.

"Nevermind that. I'll see you at school" I said as I ran and went home.
