Code 810 - Running to Stay Alive
Chapter Twenty-one
The elevator that brought detective Keiko down never stopped at all on every floor that passed until finally the elevator reached the ground floor where the coffee shop where detective Egan waited for detective Keiko since.
The elevator door was opened by itself, a different atmosphere was present on this floor because unlike on other floors in this building which tended to be much quieter, the ground floor where there were lobbies, it said, several guard posts from various police divisions and integrated with the office canteen, several places to eat and a shop that sells all the needs of the police and detectives who served in the Winter hill area office actually looks so crowded and very busy.
As soon as detective Keiko stepped out of the elevator, a group of people who were going to go upstairs immediately infiltrated the elevator and replaced him a second later the elevator door was closed.
Detective Keiko immediately walked through the lobby of the building and several rows of restaurants by selling various types of preparations from several typical areas until finally detective Keiko got to the place that was indeed since at first he will go to, a coffee shop where his partner, detective Egan is waiting for his presence.
Once inside the coffee shop, the sense of smell of detective Keiko was immediately spoiled by the smell of coffee that made his brain cells feel so pampered and immediately relaxed until unknowingly detective Keiko arched a the smile on her pretty face that for a few days she has not noticed, lack of care, even just facial soap and sunscreen that is not missed by detective Keiko.
A wave of hands from someone sitting at a table near the big window of the coffee shop turned the eyes of detective Keiko after he had been trying for some time to find the whereabouts of detective Egan. It turns out that's where detective Egan sat for about an hour and a half after he contacted the legal affairs division and asked his partner there to contact the lawyer who was given a mobile number by the suspect as well as a trusted one by suspect.
After finding where the position of Egan's detective existence, detective Keiko stepped closer to the table and it turns out that on the table there are already two coffee cups with different processing methods, one hot and one cold. On the table was already a plate of brown waffles and a plate of cheesee cake that was so tempting to detective Keiko, making the nerves in her tongue produce excess saliva.
“Finally until Kei. Sit down, you must be very tired right,” detective Egan's orders once his partner who has been warming up he has been waiting since last finally has now stood right in front of him.
Hearing the orders of his partner, detective Keiko was immediately sitting in a chair facing directly with detective Egan who was now smiling sweetly but it looks very clear if the smile was very contrived.
“It's for me isn't it, gan?“ detective Keiko asked as she pointed to a glass of iced latte coffee and cheese cake that was served so nicely on the table and was on the side where she was sitting.
“Iya, I have already pesenin lo your favorite food and drinks, so you do not need to bother pesen again and can immediately enjoy the food and drinks that you almost always order every time you come here, so you do not need to bother pesen again and can immediately enjoy the food and drinks that you almost always order every time,” Reply detective Egan full of pride aimed at himself.
“Thank you very much ya gan. You know if I need more sugar intake to restore my mood which is again collapsed today,” detective Keiko said while drinking his iced coffee latte.
Likewise with detective Egan who really enjoys chocolate waffles that have been his favorite since he was a child, and today it feels like he can re-enjoy the taste of chocolate waffles that are almost the same as the chocolate waffles he ate for the first time when he was very small.
The two detectives from the Winter Hill regional office were sitting in chairs facing each other with an attack-sized table between them but they were not talking to each other. They seemed to have been swept away in a sense that indeed these few days they had accidentally forgotten.
The afternoon sun was so warm through the window beside the two detectives who were sitting and enjoying the atmosphere and comfort through the food and drinks they enjoyed, and of course it makes the happiness of both of them feel more complete and without them realizing their smiles are developed perfectly painted on each other's faces.
Cheese cake in front of detective Keiko is now completely exhausted as well as his latte ice coffee which is only ice cubes left. In the presence of detective Keiko, detective Egan is still busy spending the brown waffle that is only left for one more bite and just disappears in the mouth of detective Egan in a matter of seconds.
“Surprisingly, why this brown waffle suddenly tastes so much better today, is this coffee shop replacing the person who made his chocolate waffle!?“ muttered detective Egan as if in disbelief with the taste that had just spoiled his tongue.
“Maybe because some days we are too busy with the case we are dealing with, so whenever we have the opportunity to eat our favorite food in a hurry so we can hardly feel the true taste of these foods,” detective Keiko expressed her opinion.
“Can also because it is yes,” reply detective Egan pretend to think about the possibility of that one.
Then the two detectives decided to sit for a few more minutes there to enjoy the atmosphere of the moment, when finally the sky began to darken.
They feel the need to recharge their energy and mental before finally having to go back to face the suspect in this case while waiting for the latest news from Aris who is now trying to find out the background of the suspect in the case this is the case they're holding in the interrogation room.
The ringing of a cell phone in the pocket of detective Keiko's blazer makes her shy away from her brief daydream and she quickly picks up and checks on her phone that hasn't stopped ringing.
“With detective Keiko here,” is an opening line that detective Keiko uses every time she answers a phone call.
