The sound of the telephone ringing echoed in the quiet department.
Ring...Ring... it rang exactly two times before Zhao picked it up and
slowly placed it against his ear and whispered "hello". He kept
listening closely and with a sigh he placed the receiver back on the phone and
looked at the whole team with an intense gaze and then uttered there has been a
murder on ostin street.
The team quickly arrived at the scene. A huge number of reporters and
civilian were standing around the crime scene. The police had already wrapped
caution tape around the area. As Zhao tried to enter the scene he was stopped
by a a police man. The policeman rudely asked Zhao "And where do you think
your going?". Zhao mockingly said "To the crime scene where else".
The policeman was definitely pissed he was just about to say something but he
was interrupted by his superior. "Oh Chief Zhao your already here please
come".
The police man jaw dropped to his feet. While walking past him the hold team
couldn't help but laugh at his reaction.
Zhao asked the cop "what are the details of this case?". 'The
murder is not just any murder as the surveillance cameras clearly recorded the
murder happening but no one can be seen even miles away". This statement
might be a shock to others but the S.C.I.U didn't even looked even the
slightest bit surprised. Well why should they be surprised it was their daily
routine to receive such cases. Ron quickly went near the body and examined it.
The body was brutally slashed and what it appeared like claw mark on
it chest. The eye sockets were empty, several bones broken and the hair pulled
from the head.
Mirai came close to the body just then she
smelled a certain odor from the body it was not a decaying smell but something
else. Suddenly her head starting feeling heavy and she became pale. Clarissa
was the first one to notice this and she suddenly said "Chief quick look
at Mirai. It looks like she is about to faint." With this remark every
ones attention diverted towards Mirai. Where as Mirai was in a daze than
suddenly Zhao shook her saying hey idiot are you okay. Mirai finally came to
her senses. In Zhaos mind he thought can she not stand the look of the corpse.
Mirai than explained that there was smell coming from the body and it felt
oddly familiar to her but she cant tell where she had smelled such odor.
Everyone became quite for a second. Even though unidentified creatures do exist
and even the attack is probably there doing but no normal human can pick up
their scent.
In the whole S.C.I.U Zhao is only one who can do so as he is a
direct descendent of the "Qrins". Yet the girl standing in front of
him just told him that she could smell this scent.......
