Detective Garrett Dwight went back to Filipe's store to see if he could get some more information... He actually didn't get any the previous day, except that Filipe's brother Mauricio, explained what happened that night. The men didn't know, but Garrett found some blood stains on the bath tub, and some strands of hair around. Forensics haven't identified the person yet, but he knew this was a huge case. The men weren't thorough enough.
Garrett: good morning Mr Filipe.
Filipe: ahhh Mr detective ?
Garrett: Garrett
Filipe: Mr Garrett?
Garrett:... just Garrett but nevermind... so_

Autumn over the comms,
Autumn: boss we've got nothing?I'm starting to get car sick
Garrett: you have somewhere else you'd rather be?
Autumn: I'm supposed to be on a date?
Garrett: uhh well you'd just have to reschedule.
Autumn: easy for you to say?
Garrett: just stay a little longer for the love of God.
Autumn: oookay fine?... um... um hold on hold on! I think we've got something!
There it was a grey minivan, parked just beside the apartment, the head lights were killed and there was no street lamp around, so it was dark.
Only the light from Filipe's store gave some shed of light.
Inside the van,
Varak: I don't see anyone around.
Banner: let's do a quick sweep of the apartment, we have to be very thorough, find anything they haven't.
Salvador: why isn't there a crime scene tape... feels like this a trap.
Venice: I mean they don't know us, they don't know what happened, Felipe could have just scene us moving something into a van, for all they know it could be a sculpture, flower...
Salvador: yeah a flower wrapped in a grey blanket, soaked in blood... seems normal to me.
Venice: ...
Banner: let's just get over with this quickly.
They stepped out of the van
Autumn: Greg get shots quickly!
Autumn: is that... Varak Bargatze... ? Salvador... Venice... Banner St Claire... ?oh my f*****g God!
over the comms
Autumn: boss you wouldn't believe this!
The men went into the apartment
Banner: look around guys, find whatever you can.
Salvador: is it just me or, does anybody feel like they're being watched.
Venice: is that... blood... that's blood! oh my God that's blood!
Varak: ?
Venice: both of you were supposed to clean this s**t! what the f**k!
Salvador: this just keeps getting better! ?I'm losing my f*****g mind! ?
Banner:... f**k?
Varak: we are so f****d, they probably identified her by now.
Salvador felt like all the strength and energy had been drained from him, just within some seconds. He leaned on the window, and there it was... a Ford mustang, and from life experiences and movies he knew the sort of people that used that kind of car, cops, detectives. They were being watched!
Salvador: guys! ?I think we've got company!
Varak: (rushing to the window) that's a cop car, a detective's car! oh my God! they are onto us!
Banner: everybody out!
Venice: no s**t!
They rushed into the car and drove off. While they were in the car , scared , worried and troubled.
Banner: we have to leave.
Salvador: to where?
Banner: Seychelles, Victoria.
Venice: what about our families?
Banner: Business... Business trip.
Varak: oh typical.
Banner: oh you've got anything better?
Varak: ...
Banner: didn't think so. When you get home, have your pilots get your PJs ready, we leave 8AM. understood?
Venice:....
