Tuesday: Drew and Holmes' Investigation

Start from the beginning
                                        

"What?" she said

"Give my boy a good time" he said and smiled even more "you know he just doesn't show it but I think he got a crush on you" he added, winked and left, she blushed.

Richard was waiting for her in his black Polo vivo with tinted brown windows. He opened the door for her and as soon as she got in, he handed her a bullet proof vest

"It's better to be safe than sorry ey" he exclaimed and they were off

"What are you onto" she asked curious

"If there is something, I have noticed is every man wears a certain type of shoe and even If they have ten pairs"

"It's usually the same shoe" said Sanchez catching on

"Exactly, so I am going to revisit some of the crime scenes and see what I'll find" he said

"There are sandstorms in west ridge you won't find anything there" she said

"Yes, that is why I said some, I go to the freshest" he replied

"But he covered up his tracks at the motel"

"Not all of them, I believe he must have been at the motel earlier that day that is why when he was able to kill them all they were caught off guard" he explained "so if he was there earlier he must have met Carlton and made him feel at ease around him so that when he comes back there would not be any cause for alarm" he "if you look closely all his victims seem to be off guard when he kills them meaning that he first gains their trust then kills them" he concluded

"Yeah you are right on that one ,he first lures his prey and moves in for the big kill ,except for the west ridge murder" she replied

"Not everything goes according to plan" he said and she nodded in agreement

In about four hours they arrived at the motel and it was already sundown. Richard had made some stops here and there

"If I had known you had other personal stops, I'd have told you to pick me up when you were done" she said in an annoyed manner as Richard parked the car across the road from the motel

"That was not going to happen unless you owned a company that made petrol" he said mockingly

"HA HA very funny let's get going" she said and they got out of the car

"Woah woah Nancy Drew safety first wear the vest" he stopped her before she crossed the road

"Arrrrggggg okay" she gave in and took it from the car and began struggling to put it on

"Need any help?" Richard offered

"No, I can do it on my own" she refused.

After two minutes of struggle she sighed and asked for a helping hand. They crossed the road to the motel parking lot which was covered in ash.

"This guy literally covers up his tracks so well" she commented looking at what remained of the once beautiful exotic motel "so, Sherlock Holmes where do we start" she added teasingly

"In there" he said pointing at the woods.

They walked across the lot to the woods. The sun had fully set now and it was dark, dark enough for the light to work without any form of obstruction which might produce biased results. Richard signaled the doctor to turn it on and the search began. Richard was the one who led the way. In his mind he was seeing himself as the killer, he took note of the direction in which the bullet that shot Carlton came from and that's the area they searched. There were a lot of shoeprints since the police had searched everywhere.
