She laughed, "I don’t think so! You are so lively and energetic. You will be a perfect match! Karl's so dull and he would need you!"
"Hmm. | think so. Ha-ha." Juanita laughed heartlessly, "Don't worry, I'll chase him down!"
"You will, right?!" Joyce patted Juanita, "I'll go back to work first, | have to catch up with the design in the next two days."
"Hmm. You get busy, I'll get you coffee, cappuccino or mocha?"
"It's all good. Thanks." Joyce smiled back.
Second Precinct.
Karl was sitting in front of his desk, looking through the documents, when his phone suddenly gave a "ding."

When he saw the text message, he could almost imagine the tone of Juanita's petulant playfulness. He gave a low laugh
unconsciously. This was the first the had ever met such a girl, both difficult and interesting.
Sergeant Allen happened to have something to report, and he walked up to Karl and saw that Karl was actually smiling.
He hurriedly stretched his neck and curiously pushed over to take a look at the message.
"Captain, | actually saw you smile. I've never seen you smile before. What's so good, letsee it too?"
Karl jerked back to his senses and subconsciously raised his hand to touch the corner of his lips.
Did he just smile? How was it possible? Could it be that he was laughing unconsciously?
He hurriedly closed the phone and said with a straight face, "Get down to your own business!"
"Captain, | have arranged a few of my men near the train station, and Thomas, the man you've askedto keep an eye on lately,
was spotted near the station yesterday." Sergeant Allen said.
"What!" Karl's eyes flinched and he jerked to his feet, "Thomas is back in Khebury? Why didn't you tellearlier?"
"They just toldthat too. And | report it immediately." Sergeant Allen scratched his head, "Captain, this person has not
committed any crime, and it is not a major case, why do we need to waste so much effort to keep an eye on him?"
"Perhaps, he will be an important breakthrough. You remember, all movements about Thomas. Only report toalone. Now, you
go getall the surveillance near the train station, as well as all the hotel registration records, and their surveillance. The sooner
the better, Thomas suddenly appears in the vicinity of the train station, | think he will not stay long. We must hurry up!"
Karl instructed carefully.
"Understood." Sergeant Allen replied.
Karl picked up his phone and hurriedly sent a message back to Juanita, "I'm working late and can't get away."

Whirling around, he tossed the phone on the table.
He suspected that there were their men in the police station, and he must make sure no one else could know about Thomas'
appearance. He did not want to alert the murderer, but it would be time-consuming and laborious for Allen alone to check the
surveillance, so he must work with him.
Soon, Allen got everything back.
Karl opened one of his dedicated offices and together the two of them went through the documents one by one.
The train station was monitored all around with numerous cameras and there were a huge amount of people going in and out
every day.
The amount of work involved was thus enormous.
Tflew by unnoticed.
Darkness fell and gloom enveloped the surroundings.
Suddenly, Karl's sharp eyes lit up as he caught a glimpse of a black figure in a hotel near the train station.
