Chapter 7: Arrested?
I walk to John's apartment and there he was standing near the gate. John was more like my best friend that my brother. He was extremely protective, soft-hearted. He wanted me to live with him at his apartment but my parents forced me to live with them.
Anyways he gave me a warm, tight hug. "How long it has been since we last met!" he said. We head up to his flat and I show him the documents on the Pendrive and the pictures that I took via my phone. He takes all of the things and goes to inform the cops.
"I'll handle everything," he said, "You can have fun in the prom" he told with a smile.
"Oh okay" "Thank You So Much Brother" I said and went back home.
As soon as I arrived at my house my mom questioned "Why did you plan to meet your brother all of a sudden?"
"Just Prom Stuff" I responded and go to my room
"I informed the cops and they will be investigating the house!" my brother texted. "Uh Thank God!" I replied and John replies "By the way, who are you going to the prom with?" "I don't know yet!"
It was evening time I was eating snacks and the cops enter our house and arrest my parents for "Drug Dealing" My brother returned home too. "Wasn't that fast?" I responded "Nah! This one was for drug dealing right? They are investigating for Will Craig's murder and we'll know that soon"
"Will you stay here then?' I asked.
"Yeah from tomorrow, I have some work today" he responded
"Yayy" I said.
It was night time, daily my mom used to cook dinner but now I had to prepare it by myself and I didn't know what to cook so I just prepare Mac & Cheese. Eating it I text Alyssa to come to my house at 7 am tomorrow and meanwhile, my brother calls me and tells me that the cops want to question me, they found out the murderer as well.
Jeff calls me and "Heyy I wanna speak to you about something," he said "Actually can I call you later I am on the way to speak to the cops" I responded "Yeah sure" he said. I go to the police station. A lady cop said "You don't have to worry about anything we just called you here to ask few questions" she said. Later, after that questions session she said "We have found out the suspects but it is someone you know so if you will be able to hear?" "Sure, no problem I can," I said thinking what could be more worst than my parents dealing drugs.
"We need to confirm it. I'll inform you in two hours and the murderer will be arrested" she said. Jeff was calling me again "Hey! What did the cops say?" he asked "Uh nothing much just asked me questions like how did you get through the house and all" "Oh that's it so no tension. Hehe" he said "Actually there's more, she said they found suspects and they are testing out and they'll know the murderer in two hours" I replied
"That's more good why are you sad about this?" he said "yeah, but she said the murderer is someone I know" "What?" he told
"Yeah" I responded.
"Well don't worry! Nothing can be more worse than your parents being drug dealers" Jeff said. That's exactly what I said earlier! "Hello? Are you there?" he asked "Yes I am, I was just wondering who it can be," I said.
"Anyways, I returned back to my house so maybe I'll call you later?" I continued. "Sure" he responded. I cut the call and enter the house, I was tired so I went to sleep but when I was trying to sleep the words of the cop was popping in my mind. Meanwhile Jeff and Al's POV-
"Ooh was that Ellie?" asked Al
"Yes it was" Jeff answered
"Isn't she talking to you more than to me?" Al asked
"So what? Be happy bro" replied Jeff
"Well, did you ask her from prom?" Al asked
"Not yet but surely tomorrow morning when we go to her house," Jeff said.
"Okay!" Al said
Soon I fell asleep, my phone rang two times but it was on the study table and guessing that it is Jeff and Alyssa I ignore it. After two hours I got up and it was an unknown number. I tried to call back and no one answered it. The house bell rang, I rush down the stairs and peep through the hole on the door. Oh! It was my brother but it was midnight. He came inside and he was sweaty like he ran all the way I ask him for water and he asked me "Did the cops call you to inform you about the murderer?"
"Well no, actually I was asleep and I got two missed calls from an unknown number! Why? Do you know who it is?" I said
"Yes, I do I got a call some time ago" he replied
"Oh! Who is it?" I asked
My phone starts ringing, my brother gulps. I pick up the phone and it was the lady cop. So the unknown number was the cop's. I lift the call "Ellie?" she asked 'Yes I am"
"We got the confirmation about the murder of Will Craig, a very famous reporter who handles every case of this town. While he was writing the article about the shipment of drugs from Bridgewald to another town, two of the dealers from the the list killed Will."
"Oh! and who exactly?" I asked
She responds ........ "What are you sure?"
