I was really lazy to move and open my eyes, but just to see whose cell phone continues to vibrate impatiently on the nightstand. The sound of his noisy vibrations in the middle of the night's silence managed to disturb my deep sleep with my wife, Monica.
"Your phone, Lucius," Monica said raspingly as she patted my back, as if asking me to pick up my phone immediately or turn off my phone as soon as possible and go back to sleep.
My cellphone? Did ya? How foolish I was, forgetting to turn it off before going to sleep, my mind was upset.
I held out my hand from under the blanket, reaching for the phone that was on the nightstand next to me. As soon as my phone reached, I immediately opened my eyes to read the name of the person who dared to call me and interrupted my break.
Shit, it was Andrew, my assistant at the prosecutor's office, who called me in the middle of the night. Really not polite. Didn't I tell him not to bother me tonight, because I really need a break. I haven't slept in two days because of overtime. Has he forgotten? Watch out for you, Andrew! my mind's upset.
"Andrew called, honey. Looks like it's important. Forgive him, it's been disturbing your sleep. Go back to sleep. I'll take this call outside," I said softly as Monica's frowning bothered.
Monica pulled my right hand that was holding the phone closer to her face. His round eyes immediately watched my phone screen which showed a large photo of Andrew. He smiled at me because he knew I wasn't lying to him.
"Don't call her for long. Tomorrow there is still a conference that you must attend, "monica advised while tightening the blanket to make it warmer and more comfortable.
I nodded, immediately got out of bed, walked towards the door of the room, opened it slowly without a sound so that Monica would not be disturbed and quickly walked out of the bedroom.
I swiped the green button on my phone as soon as my foot stepped into the workspace next to my room.
"Good night, Mr. Lucius. Forgive me for calling at night" Andrew said politely.
"Awas you, if not the important thing you want to convey," I replied angrily as I pressed my workroom light switch. Instantly my work space became bright and I stepped towards the soft sofa in the middle of my work space to sit down.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lucius. I don't mean to bother you. However, just now Doctor Jenny from the forensics department called, informing her that a young woman's body had just been found. His body was burning almost 70%. His face was unrecognizable, extremely terrifying. He urged me to immediately inform my father about this. Oh yes, he also sent me some photos and told me to say clearly to my father that the green diamond ring had been found," Andrew said quickly worried I was getting angry.
"Green diamond ring? Was the corpse of the young lady wearing a green diamond ring?" I was shocked to jump from the soft sofa.
"It seems so, sir," replied Andrew briefly.
"Quick send me a photo of the green diamond ring!" command spontaneous.
"I sent it through whatsapp, sir. Complete with photos of the body" said Andrew, holding back a laugh.
I immediately pressed the green icon on my phone screen, searched Andrew's name and clicked on the photos that Andrew sent.
Within seconds, the photos were downloaded. I smiled when I saw the pictures. It's worth Andrew to hold a laugh while talking earlier because the photos sent are very laughable. The female forensic doctor who had a sweet face was acting very silly, she said, he is selfie in various styles next to a disgusting corpse and next to a blistered ring finger wearing a green diamond ring.
I immediately enlarged the photo of the ring and watched it closely.
Oh my God, this ring really belongs to Edith, the woman I've been looking for all this time. Was the corpse of the young lady Edith? I hope it wasn't. The man will be crushed if the woman's corpse is really Edith, I murmured softly and sadly.
"Sorry, Sir. I didn't hear my father's words" said Andrew a little confused.
"Forget it, I just muttered to myself. Does Doctor Jenny have any other messages?" my many.
"Hm... Doctor Jenny also apologized for not contacting the father directly, because he did not want a misunderstanding between the father and the father's wife. Maybe he had heard rumors that blew, the father's wife had an excessive attitude of jealousy, and he was afraid that the father's wife would be angry like when there were policewomen who called the father of the night, night after night, a few months ago" Andrew said, holding back a laugh.
"You're a real bitch, Andrew. Meet me in Doctor Jenny's room in half an hour. We have to investigate this case as soon as possible" I said firmly.
"Ouch, Sir. It's almost morning. Can't it be postponed tomorrow afternoon after the trial is over?" andrew asked expectantly so that there would be no need to go out at dawn.
"No, it has to be right now. This is very important!" I replied that I did not want to delay any longer.
"Aren't you looking at enough of Doctor Jenny's photos? Do I have to see the body in person, sir?" ask Andrew to explain.
"alright, Sir. I'll be sliding there soon" said Andrew sadly.
"Good boy" I said, hanging up the phone call.
I immediately searched Doctor Jenny's name on my cell phone contact and called her.
"Good morning, Lucius. It turns out that Andrew has delivered my message well," said Doctor Jenny happy.
"Morning, Doctor. Thank you so much for all the photos. I'll be right to your office, Doc. Please don't go home doctor first. Wait for me to come, Doc. Now I will send some data by email, please analyze, whether the body found it has similarities with the data I sent," I said quickly.
"All right, I'm waiting for you to come" Jenny teased.
"Thank you very much, Doc. Sorry to bother the doctor," I said politely.
"No need to worry, Lucius. I'm glad I can help you" said Doctor Jenny.
I immediately disconnected the phone call and then stepped up to my desk, opened my laptop and sent me some facial photos, birthmark photos, photos and description of the position of the mole, xontgent bones, panoramic photos of teeth, and a photo of my teeth, edith's fingerprints and health records were emailed to Doctor Jenny.
After that I immediately replaced my sleeping pajamas with shirts and trousers stored in my workroom closet. I forgot to take a silver box out of my desk drawer, put it in my pocket before going to the Forensics Agency.

When I got to Doctor Jenny's room, I saw Andrew was already inside. He was wearing a mask and gloves. Her fingers covered with gloves tightly smother the mask area of her mouth, as if trying to refrain from vomiting while beside the corpse on the silver color table at the end of the corpse autopsy room.
"Andrew, did you find anything important?" I suddenly patted Andrew on the back.
The startled Andrew immediately staggered unbalancedly forward, almost crashing into the corpse that was in front of him, if I did not swiftly pull his arm.
"Be careful, Andrew. You don't want to hug her, do you?" ask Doctor Jenny with a naughty smile.
Andrew nodded quickly.
"Have the data I sent been received?" I asked Doctor Jenny.
"Thank you very much, Lucius. The data is very complete. I will process it immediately and let you know that the results have come out" said Dr. Jenny satisfied.
I immediately reached into my pants pocket and took out the silver color box, then thrust it at Doctor Jenny.
"What's that?" asked Andrew curiously.
"Pieces of nails and hair belong to someone who is needed for a DNA test" explains Dr. Jenny.
"someone? Who?" asked Andrew curiously.
"You know what you are, Andrew. Less you know better" I said firmly.
"What am I here for, if I am not needed?" andrew asked annoyed.
"To help me investigate this case," I replied with a cruel look wanting to torture Andrew.
"Alright, Lucius. Don't be so mean to Andrew. Come here, look at this! The tattoo of a partially burned symbol, I just found it, so I'll send you the picture after this. Maybe you can start an investigation of where this tattoo was made" said Doctor Jenny, pointing at the waist of the young woman's corpse.
Lucius immediately approached the autopsy table, leaning over his body to observe the tattoo symbol, as did Andrew.
"Honey and Bee Tattoo?" ask Dr. Jenny Lucius.
"Finally, exactly" said Doctor Jenny, glad to hear Lucius's 100% correct guess.
"We haven't been there for a long time, it's been great to see Jason, the owner of the place once again" Andrew said.
"Don't mess around anymore, we're not going there to ask for a free tattoo, but to investigate the case," I snapped a little loudly.
Andrew smiled happily successfully making me angry once again.
