Roy was outside of his house, mowing the grass. Thunder sounded from above, and the rain started to come down fiercely. Roy powered down the mower and walked inside. His Dog, Cooper, came up to him with a tennis ball in his mouth. "Not now, boy. I have some work to do," Roy said. Cooper whined and walked down the hallway into Roy's bedroom. Roy walked into his office and sat at his desk. He turned on his computer and clicked on the files icon. He opened the file titled "Third Infantry". He reminisced about all of the good and bad times they had before the bomb. He was about to go to his work application when his phone rang.
Roy picked up the phone. "Hello?" "Hello. This is The King's Detective Agency," The voice from the phone said. "De-Detective agency? What do you need?" "We would like to talk to you in person. Please come down at once," Roy was puzzled at this. Why would a detective agency want to talk to him? Roy spoke up before he ended the call. "Wh-What's the address?" "Sorry, just come down at once. Bye." "Wait! What's the-" The call ended. "Address..." Roy set his phone down and looked up the King's Detective Agency on Froogle. "14941, Forlorn Street. Got it." Roy shut his laptop and put his coat on. He gave Cooper a treat and left.
