1044 Words
Hannah and Hansel went to see their captain at the hospital after handing over the bullet casings that Hannah found at the scene.
When Hannah and Hansel came, someone had just come out of their captain's room, Hannah knew that person was a member of the police too, so Hannah and Hansel also respected that person and went into their captain's room after that person left.
"How are you, Captain?" asked Hansel as he walked closer to Philip.
"I am better. Did you guys just finish looking at the scene?” Philip asked the two of them back.
"Yes, Hannah and I checked the place," Hansel replied.
"Did you guys find something there?" Philip hopes this time for his men to find something to help with their investigation and uncover who shot him.
"Hannah found a bullet in there." Hansel glanced at Hannah briefly, before turning his attention back to his captain.
Hannah just listened and was lazy to join in the conversation, Hansel would explain everything in detail to Philip anyway. Hannah's job there was only to accompany Hansel and present herself in front of her captain, nothing more.
“How did you find the bullet, Hannha?” Philip turned his head towards Hannah and hurriedly asked the girl.
When she was asked like now, only then did Hannah open her lips to speak in response to her captain's question, "I saw an indentation in the wall post in the middle of the scene, I researched it and found the bullet on the floor near the table and chair," said Hannah explaining how she found it. the bullet to Philip.
Philip was silent and pensive in his contemplation, seeing that his captain was silent, Hansel did not dare to interrupt and just stood quietly near Philip's bed.
Hannah, who was quite curious about what the captain was doing in the restaurant they went to, ventured to ask Philip a question.
“What exactly happened there, Captain? Did that person suddenly attack you? Or any advance warning?” Hannah opened her lips to voice her curious question.
Hansel turned to Hannah and was shocked to see the girl, not expecting her to dare to ask their captain like that. However, Hansel remained silent and did not stop Hannah because he was curious about what really happened.
Philip smiled wryly at Hannah's question, “I realized that back then I was very careless, I was ambushed there. And got hit by two bullets in my right shoulder as well as stomach.”
"Did you see who shot you, Captain?" Hannah asked again, increasingly curious about the continuation of the story of the shooting of her captain.
"I only saw them a little, they were wearing masks and also covered their bodies with all black clothes, so I didn't see their faces," replied Philip explaining how he had experienced earlier.
“It will be difficult to know who they are then,” said Hansel from next to Philip.
“Do you have anyone suspicious or do you suspect?” Hannah didn't stop there, she asked Philip again.
Hansel cleared his throat and glanced at Hannah sharply, warning the girl not to ask Philip too many questions, they might get angry for asking too many questions like that of a superior.
“Ah, I'm sorry, Captain." Hannah lowered her head and realized she was getting too carried away and kept asking her captain.
Philip didn't really pay attention to Hannah's apology, instead he pondered over who might have been the person he had offended and had been the mastermind behind his shooting.
“I think the mafia is quite suspicious. Considering their current movement is very active in the underworld,” said Philip with a blank look who was still wondering who he might have offended.
Instantly, Philip remembered that he had made trouble with one of the most terrible underworld mafias.
After hearing Philip's words, Hannah's heart couldn't help but thump in anxiety, she suddenly thought of Thomas and hoped that the man had nothing to do with this shooting of her captain.
The three of them fell into deep contemplation with different thoughts, a silence enveloped them.
. . .
Finally, after seeing the clock that it was time for them to return to work, Hansel and Hannah said goodbye and left Philip at the hospital.
Luckily there were several other members who were already standing guard in front of Philip's room to guard him. Hannah and Hansel no longer had to worry about their captain's condition.
On their way to the headquarters, Hannah tried to ask Hansel who was seriously driving the car, "Hansel, do you think that the mafia is the mastermind behind this shooting?"
Hansel sighed sadly when he heard Hannah's words, “Even if this shooting wasn't done by them, I would still suspect them. You know I really hate the mafia," Hansel replied, tightening his grip on the steering wheel.
Seeing that, Hannah turned her gaze away from Hansel and preferred to look out the window, "You're right, I seem to have asked you wrong," Hannah muttered quietly.
. . .
Thomas had already devised a plan to kill the person who turned out to be the team captain from Hannah. He planned to eliminate the man at midnight, after making sure Hannah was asleep, he would go to complete his target.
"How dare that little bastard show his nose in front of me, I'll make sure he's gone!" Thomas hissed impatiently to kill anyone who dared to interfere with his plans.
At that moment, his cell phone rang and displayed Hector's name on it, without waiting for long Thomas immediately picked up the call.
"How is it? Have you prepared it for me?” Thomas asked straight to the point at Hector on the other side.
"I've prepared it, sir. We'll just have to go and eliminate that guy," Hector replied reporting to Thomas.
“Good! Before that I want to ask you something," said Thomas wanting to ask Hector, because something was bothering him a lot.
"What is it, sir?"
"Was the shooting carried out by one of our guy?" Thomas asked, quite curious about this fact, because he did not give the order to harm the detective.
