"Hey!" Lily called as she ran over to Spencer, Emily, Aria and Hanna who were gathered outside the school "What's going on?"

"Spencer hasn't shown her sister the mask yet," Hanna said, glaring at Spencer

"What why?" Lily asked "That's the only lead we have,"

"It might not be," Spencer said "All the mask does is place her there,"

"Yeah but we don't know why or when she was there," Lily said

"And apart from that, my dad's home because Family Services called my parents," Emily added "Someone saw my mum and I fight and now I have to lie about taking my mums pills and why I needed them,"

"It'll blow over," Lily shrugged

"That might but my mum being involved in Wilden's case won't," Hanna said "My dad told Caleb his gun is missing and he thinks my mum took it so if Wilden was shot with the same type of gun then I don't know how to even ask her about it,"

"God our lives are twisted," Lily shook her head

What the five girls didn't notice was two police officers sitting in a car across the road watching them closely "Those are the ones you told me about?" A female officer was asking her partner, staring at the five girls 

"That's them." Holbrook nodded

"If I dressed like that when I was in high school, my dad woulda had a stroke." She said 

"I coulda gotten used to it." Holbrook said and looked out the window, pointing at Lily "I don't mind seeing her in a short top," 

"Don't make me sorry I picked you for this. We're not here to get cozy." 

"I know." Holbrook grinned "We're here to solve a couple of homicides the locals keep tripping over." 

"And find out what it is about those five pretty girls that attracts so many corpses."

The school bell rang so the five girls walked inside for the day and after school Lily decided to go along to Ashley's office with Hanna since she too was worried about how this Wilden case was going along

Plus also they were still trying to figure out why Ashley hadn't told anyone that she had actually been in Rosewood the night Wilden had been killed

When they got into her office it was empty so Hanna immediately went for the calendar book on her mother's desk, rifling through to find the date Wilden had died but before they could find it they heard  footsteps coming so they stepped away from the desk and suddenly Ashley, Detective Holbrook and a female detective walked in from the corridor that led to the safety deposit boxes

"Oh. Hello, Hanna, Lily." Holbrook said 

"Officer Holbrook." Hanna nodded and Ashley looked at her daughter in surprise that they knew him already "We met him at Wilden's funeral."

"This is my partner, Lieutenant Tanner." Holbrook said, gesturing to the female officer next to him 

"Hanna Marin."

"Lily Jackson." The girls introduced themselves 

Hello, Hanna, Lily." Tanner nodded politely

"Hello." Hanna said and Lily just nodded in reply

"Hanna, I'll call you." Ashley said, desperate to get the girls away from the officers 

"Oh, that's all right, they can stay." Holbrook said, his eyes on Lily again who just rolled her eyes "This isn't gonna take long." 

"Whose box is that?" Hanna asked, gesturing to the box they had brought into the office 

"Darren Wilden's." Holbrook said and they opened it, pulling out stacks of money
