326: FALLEN FRIEND

“Detective, come take a look!”

Jack Ryan hollered from down the hill. The day had now brightened, and the cops were carrying out their duty, which had been going on for the past few days.

They all gathered around, looking at the lifeless body. Blood covered the back of the head, and the eyes remained closed.

The detective, Lucas Grayson, walked from his car, his eyes fixed on the scene before him. The days–long search had finally come to an end.

Sitting on his heels, close to the lifeless body before him, he took a deep breath and

closed his eyes, mourning for this person.

It was Mason.

Lucas and Mason had been good friends, and hearing the news that Mason was missing, Lucas set out to search for him, doing everything he could just to find his

great comrade.

Now, he was seeing the body of his friend, who was no longer breathing and whose heart was beating no more. Tears rolled down Lucas‘ cheeks as he recalled his

wonderful times with Mason.

This was definitely not suicide; who could have killed him? Who could have been so heartless to end the life of this nice and wonderful young man?

Lucas rose to his feet, not taking his eyes off Mason one bit. His fists clenched

tightly as if he was about to strike someone with his anger.

“Sir Lucas, is everything okay?”

The question came from Hailey, a recruit who had been following him around. A beautiful young lady who recently turned nineteen is chasing her dream of being a

cop, just like her father,who made a great name in New Haven.

Lucas turned to her/not willing to say anything, but he would have to give her a response. “It’s… it’s okay.”
