The Goddess of Don Pablo
Chapter 4: The Handsome Uniform


The District Police Department of the Global Drug Handling Special Unit was busy as usual. Ray, in his police uniform, is struggling with a pile of files on his desk. Today her boss appointed her to take care of a big case. The biggest drug smuggling case. This case has been investigated for quite a long time. But his side is in a deadlock. They can only catch small dealers who are only sentenced to a few years in prison. Though his side is very confident this case involves the network of the world's largest international drug dealer. Moreover, some of the previous team people who handled the case, had to experience various things, which Ray himself said may have something to do with the case.


That afternoon, Ray was still struggling at his desk. He is busy with his imagination and analysis built into his own mind. Until not aware of the presence of Richard, his superiors at that time.


"I shouldn't have seen anyone in this room at lunchtime, but I was wrong.." He muttered as he walked closer to Ray. Ray was a little surprised at his daydream. He looked slightly towards the owner of the voice. Without even looking, Ray knew it was Richard's voice. But the reflexes of his body could not be resisted.


"Hmm.I was thinking..Could it be Simon's car accident or Jessie's sudden death from a heart attack.Are actually what it has to do with this case ?" ray said while lifting a file.


"How could you have guessed that ?" ask Richard to come back to him. He sat on one of the empty desks in the room. Dealing with Ray.


"Hmm.I just saw the crash file of Simon and his family..He was in an accident when he wanted to have a long vacation with his family. The alleged accident was due to poorly functioning brakes and slippery car tyres making it slip and he was plunged into the abyss at the time. Didn't you suspect it was a premeditated murder scenario ? How could a Simon act recklessly without checking the condition of his car that he wanted to use for a long journey that had to go through hills and mountains ? Should he have prepared it very well ?He is not traveling for his own sake..I suspect this has something to do with the case he's handling" Ray replied in a confident tone.


"Hmm..well, maybe you have a point.but maybe it was an accident because of Simon's negligence. He thinks everything is fine...Didn't the investigation team find any oddities leading up there ?" richard answered back to him. Ray, who heard the answer, was dissatisfied with what his boss said.


"Then what about Jessie ? He died of a heart attack while returning home on night patrol and was eating at a Chinese restaurant where he used to hang out? You know, Jessie's the most concerned person in health. He diligently gym and keep his diet ?He barely even ate red meat.and he was so young to have a heart attack ?" Let Ray go back to his boss.


" And..the other one, take the afternoon first when it is your resting hour.it is right for your stomach and body.." said Richard back while pointing his index finger at Ray and smiling knot.


Ray was still silent and sat in his chair. He was very dissatisfied with his boss' answer. Like looking at Ray's analysis as a trivial thing. Ray was silent for a moment before he finally decided to get out of the room and follow Richard's advice.


There is a small pantry, not just a small cupboard containing cutlery and a dispenser that provides hot and cold water. He opened the cupboard.Take a cup and sesachet instant coffee. Ray was used to put sachetan coffee in the closet as a booster when he had to work late at night at the office. Black coffee with creamer is quite tempting sense of smell. The distinctive aroma of coffee when meeting hot water seeped instantaneously in the narrow pantry room He sipped coffee in the cup. The tiredness he felt due to the various thoughts raging within his head instantly disappeared slowly. The aroma of coffee and the taste of coffee is like being able to drown all his thoughts.


Ray did not realize, a woman who was sitting in one corner of his office desk noticed her who was out of the room to the pantry. The woman knew very well Ray's habits in recent weeks.He always saw the man almost never leave the room when lunchtime arrived. When all the police were busy planning where they were going with what they were going to have for lunch, Ray was the only one who never left the room. Only occasionally did he go out into the pantry and sip coffee.


Darling the black haired sweet girl passed over the shoulder a few inches away, never the slightest bit reprimanded by Ray. Ray was unaware of his existence. The girl was the only woman ever to be in the corner of her desk when lunchtime came. He who always sat at his desk opened the food he brought from home.That is the only one who always saw what happened every day in the police room that is not too wide.
