131 Justin's Anomaly

A fine evening was ruined by this vexing brawl, and it didn't escalate into a major case. The only officer who fired was Jimmy, and even those two shots were aimed at an empty lot with no casualties.

As for the injuries from the fight, they meant nothing to these hoodlums; they didn't even need to visit a hospital for X-rays or examinations.

For Jimmy, the biggest loss was an evening that had been near perfect.

Day after boring day, as mentioned before, it seemed like public safety had suddenly improved. The calls transferred from 911 were all simple support missions. Jimmy had complained several times but to no avail; it was as if staying at the police station and being a "salary thief" was a cardinal sin, and they were determined to keep him busy.

As the weather gradually warmed up, so did Jimmy's workload. Besides his regular shifts, he also had looming exams, and then there was the part-time job he had just started.
