Arabella And Beauty System
The False Beard Matter

When school time comes, Arabella, Angel, Vino, Rachel and Feny immediately go in search of a taxi to go to their destination police station.

When we reached the front yard of the main New York police station, one by one get off the taxi, then walk towards the entrance fence.

Arabella actually asked permission first with Mr. Steve. So that's why when they approached the gatekeeper, the officer immediately opened the gate for them.

When they managed to enter the gate, they all fell silent for a moment to see that there were already two large tall men standing in the front area of the entrance of the police station.

There was Mr. Steve who was still wearing police uniform, while on his left was Nael who was wearing a thick black jacket, black hat, sunglasses, and thick beard. Of course, the clothes and beard that Nael wears is only fake, just to cover his face and his original body shape.

"Excuse me sir, we're students from Columbia University, we got an assignment to do an interview with a police officer or a detective. Are we allowed to interview one of the detectives here for Mr Vano's death?", Angel asked Mr. Steve with a slight bow as a sign of respect.

"Yes, allowed. I still remember you too. You guys who came here yesterday, right?", asked Mr. Steve.

"Yes, right sir. Thank you for your permission" Angel said with a small smile. Then Angel's gaze shifted to the figure of the thick-bearded man standing to the left of Mr. Steve.

"Oh yeah, by the way, are you a detective, sir?", asked Angel.

"Oh.he's not a detective, he's a psychologist" Mr. Steve replied.

Angel, Vino, Rachel and Feny nodded. Arabella also nodded even though she knew what Mr. Steve said was not true.

"Oh, then, we're interviewing you, sir. You're a cop here, aren't you?", asked Angel.

"Yes, right. Yes, you guys just interview me, no problem" said Mr. Steve.

Angel immediately pulled out a small digital camera from her bag, then gave it to Vino.

"You did record it" Angel said. After Vino took the digital camera, Arabella, Feny, and Rachel immediately took the right position so that they can all also enter the camera.

When Arabella, Feny, and Rachel were about to take up a position near Mr. Steve, Nael immediately left his position earlier. But when I just passed Mr. Steve..

The fake beard is down!

Arabella immediately covered her own mouth so as not to shout in surprise. Yes, sometimes Arabella is such a surprise.

Fortunately, when her fake beard fell, Nael lowered his head and grabbed the beard without exposing his face. After picking up her fake beard, Nael put it on again and walked away past them all leisurely.

"Why does the man wear a fake beard, sir?", Angel boldly asked Mr. Steve.

"Oh, let it be his business. Maybe he had a full pimple on his chin so he covered it with a fake beard" replied Mr. Steve.

Arabella immediately held back her laughter. He was even astonished to see Mr. Steve who said those words casually without laughing a single bit, instead his face looked solemn.

Angel then codes Vino to turn on the camera. They also immediately conducted interviews.

"Thank you for the time for the interview, sir", Angel said after they all finished the interview.

"The same" replied Mr. Steve.

Angel then turned his head towards Arabella, Vino and the others.

"Okay, let's go home" said Angel. Vino and the others nodded, then walked out of the police station gate.

When Arabella had just stepped out of the gate, her cell phone rang.

Drt. drt..

He immediately picked up his phone and put it close to his ear.

"Hello?"

"Arabella! Where have you been?! I've been looking for you!"

There was a sound snapping from across the street, making Arabella immediately round her eyes. He immediately remembered something.

"Pardon me, Mr. Andrew. There was a group assignment, so I left without informing you"

"Well, where are you now?" asked Andrew.

"The main police station" replied Arabella rather fearfully. There was no reply from Andrew for a few seconds.

"Are you working in a group or are you going to meet the detective guy?" asked Andrew.

"No, sir, no. I was working in a group for an interview here", replied Arabella trying to convince the man.

"All right, wait there. I'll pick you up "

The phone is then switched off.

Arabella sighed.
