Selina Shen 09:11 P.M Café

-What's up with the gloomy face?

-Nothing. Just thinking about how..on the second thought, nothing.

-Are you worried about me Shen?

-Not particularly...but yeah, you sure you are not just fired? I mean you cannot possibly be spending this much time outside of the force.

-You're right...this lifestyle is getting into me, badly.

-...

-Don't worry, I will see that your cut is delivered.

-Oh? And what will that be?

-...I wonder.

-(Sighs)...remember that girl..who was killed a few days ago?

-I do. One clean shot through head?

-Anything else?

-...I heard she was a student at..the local college. It was about seven pm when the murder took place. She was getting back to her house, maybe...that's all.

-...

-You saw her body right after Shen. Where're you getting at?

-Our mansion dude's kid.

-No; you gotta be kidding me!

-I do my homework unlike you Selina.

-Okay, okay. But..

-Yes, it does look connected. If you dig it I bet it'll give us something on his suicide.

-Well if the residents were to be the one behind this guy's death, we can narrow it down to the girl too.

-Yes. That's what I think. But..

-You faced the shooter, I know. Question is why go with the the trouble anyway..Shen?

-...I don't have any idea too. He could've just killed me right after he saw me. Why put up a chase..

-..To intimidate you. Although, looks unsettling for a guy with such finesse.

-Hmm.

-...Shen?

-(Stares)...

-It can't be random Shen.

-Even if some hitman knew me and coincidentally it turns out that he's my guy, I cannot help you out here.

-To track him down, that is.

-...

-Let's go.

-...

-Hmm.

-Say it.

-Yeah whatever.

-Hey?? What's up with that?

-Nothing.

-What nothing!? Is this about..

-Can I go to sleep already?? You see today was the day of heavy lifting at my part time job; so I am tired if you can't tell!

-You would've felt a bit better if you could just be leave this trashy att.i.tude out at work.

-I would have to be back here anyway with you, so why bother?

-Hey! If you've something to say, say it! Don't be an edgy a.s.s.

-I don't want to hear that from a middle aged woman driven by only fumes and uncertainty.

-Are you still feeling like getting shot every now and then like you used to back when your life was still hanging from rope? I thought we were getting better.

-Very bold thinking. Good night.
