Code 810: Corpse On The Hill
Chapter 36. Submitting evidence (again)



Detectives Egan and Keiko accidentally run into forensic expert Birdella in the cafeteria of the building where they work when the two detectives plan to buy their lunch today after they return home from the village under the foothills of the scene of the crime in a search mission to find the corpse on the hill.


They were forced to postpone their lunch because they could not find a food stall that opened in the village today.


Since the discovery of the corpse on the hill, the village has become increasingly quiet. Stores that usually provide food for tourists who come to climb the hill close because it has since then the hill is closed, especially for tourists with the aim of protecting the crime scene until the case was solved.


“Birdella! we even met here it turns out,” said detective Keiko patted Birdella on the shoulder.


“What's the matter?“ birdella asked excitedly as she sipped the Americano Ice she had just bought in the building's cafeteria.


“We bring this for you dong,” replied detective Egan while showing off the bag of evidence containing a cup and half cigarettes that some of the others have burned out, as well as the other half, the things he brought from the coffee shop in the village.


“Wah, what else is this?“ birdella asked in a carefree tone as she touched the pouch.


“This gift I brought from our investigation today,” replied detective Egan jovially.


Detective Keiko said, “We postpone our lunch. Now mending us to where Birdella first aja.“


“You can eat first. Nothing, I can wait until you finish eating kok.“


“Udahlah. Go straight to the work room del aja,” said detective Egan impatiently.


“Or you guys just buy your lunch here, we continue to eat together in my workspace while we discuss our case. This I bought spagethi also to eat in my room.“


Then Birdella whispered, “Spagethi here is very good, you know, the food is cemented Ice Americano, beehhh.“.


Detective Keiko quickly said, “Ngga do it! We just went straight to the work room lo del.“


Detective Egan chuckled softly at the frantic expression of the fellow.


The three coworkers walked together to Birdella's workspace on the eighth floor of the building. Although not only Birdella who works on the special floor of the lab, but everyone on the eighth floor was familiar and very respectful to Birdella because she was recognized for her good performance. even on that floor, Birdella has many students and juniors in this forensic field.


After greeting almost everyone who was on the floor, Birdella and the two detectives finally arrived at the workspace owned by Birdella.


“You found these things on that hill?“ birdella asked after briefly observing the contents in the bag that detective Egan placed on the workbench owned by Birdella.


“Ngga. Not there we found these items,” Detective Keiko replied.


“Lantas where did you find them?“ birdella asked again still observing the object from a distance away.


“In the only coffee shop in the village at the foot of the hill,” now detective Egan answered.


“Then what does this have to do with our case this time?“


Detective Egan sits in the front seat of Birdella's desk and begins to tell stories, “Lo remember not the same people we once told came to the scene of the crime after being fitted to the police line the other day?“


“Iya. I want to, why?“


“Then?“


“Because some people there turned out to suspect Ardana too, then finally we decided to talk to him who was sitting alone in the corner of the coffee shop while smoking and stabbing a cup of coffee.“


“Almost we get the name of the culprit, when suddenly Ardana fell to the floor,” continued detective Keiko told me.


“Kok? How could he fall?“


“According to the testimony of some people there, Ardana has an allergy to alcohol,” replied detective Keiko.


“We ask you to find out if he really fainted because of his allergy to alcohol,” detective Egan said.


“Are you guys going to open the Ardana case too?“ Birdella curious.


“It could be, if Ardana also died,” detective Egan said half-jokingly.


“Perhaps in those two things or in one of them, we can find something that leads us to Tania's killer,” detective Keiko said expectantly.


“Why do you think so?“ ask Birdella.


“Because the biggest possibility that did this to Ardana, he wants Ardana not to mention his name,” replied detective Egan in a heavy and serious tone.


“How about the thing we brought yesterday?“ ask detective Keiko.


“Still in the cleaning stage by one of my juniors. Today should have been finished and I will continue the examination,” replied Birdella confidently.


“Don't take too long ya del. You also want Tania cepet-cepet handed back to her family so that she can be buried properly,” detective Egan trying to remind.


“Iya. I will collect every data I have and I hand it to you as soon as possible, once all the results have come out,” reply Birdella steady.


“Okay then. I'm the same Keiko wants to go down for lunch. We have not been able to eat at all,”, said detective Egan memelas.


“Lunch is here. I buy a lot of food, actually, will not run out if I eat alone,” Birdella offers while opening one by one the food boxes that she bought in the office cafeteria on the ground floor of the building.


“Where's Kei?“ detective Egan asked with a small smile, sneered.


“NO! thank you very much, but today I no longer want to eat spagethi,” retorted detective Keiko quickly tried to avoid the offer of eating his best friend.


“Lo what do you want to eat Kei? Let me ask my junior to buy in the cafeteria.“


“Ya has Kei. We'll just be here,” detective Egan does not stop mocking his partner.


“Say you want to treat me gan. You must be trying to avoid that promise, right?! Don't be gan.“


Detective Keiko's eyes are rounded towards detective Egan, as if he's scolding his partner who deliberately set him up in a situation he doesn't like, eating in Birdella's room next to the bodies in the refrigerator is a situation that makes her hair stand up and her appetite disappear altogether.
