Chapter 21 - Jack's new crush

Heading towards the nearest detective bar, Jack felt a little uncomfortable with the presence of so many detectives near the bar area.

"Hello!! It's me Jack and i came ask for permission to interview some people."

Said Jack in an uncharacteristic way, trying to sound funny but achieving the opposite.

"Ahahaha Jack why you trying to act like a new costumer come here."

"Oh?! Mr. Anderson why are you here?"

Said with a terrefied and surprised face. I would do the same if I were in the presence of a man whose nickname was berserker.

"I've been waiting for you. I have great news to tell you. Come, follow me."

"Right."

Following Anderson from behind, Jack stealthy looked at the wall that was that man's back. The aura that his back transmitted was dangerous even from afar.

"Uuuuuuff, i'm glad he's my boss and not my enemy"

Jack thought.

Arriving at Anderson's office, Jack suddenly saw long brown hair like well-nourished cork oaks. The fragrance of that woman's perfume emanated through the room, leaving Jack fascinated, and the beauty completely dominated him.

"Jack?! Jack wake up! Earth calls Jack!!"

"AH! SORRY MR. ANDERSON I WAS LOST IN MY MIND."

"There's no need to apologize, I know you're shaken by Everton's death, we all are. Now let me introduce you to your new partner who will be accompanying you. Please introduce yourself."

"Hello, my name is Stella and I am 23 years old. Recently, Mr. Anderson was looking for someone to work with you, Mr. Jack, so I applied."

"The pleasure is all mine miss. Stella, as you may already know, I'm Jack and I'm 25 years old, and I'm looking forward to starting work with you."

Said Jack with a beautiful smile and red cheeks.

"So, when do you plan to start working? I want to show you what i am capable of."

"Ah! I remembered, Mr. Anderson, I came to ask to interview people who witnessed the most recent crime. Some things happened at home that I can't explain, but I believe I need to interview these people to continue my investigation."

"The most recent crime... ah?! That isn't the crime no one is able to solve since months, that there were thousands of deaths and almost all the detectives gave up trying to solve it?"

Said Stella confused.

"That's why most people were rejected, only you Stella have the skills to work with Jack on this case, he has been working on it for quite some time and is the only one who has produced results."

"I promise I'll do my best to contribute to this investigation, Jack! Please let me go with you to interview these people to better understand your thoughts."

Said Stella as she got close to Jack, almost touching him.

"AH Yes, yes, yes you can go with me but i need Mr. Anderson permission first."

Jack said, blushing at the situation.

"Yes, of course, you can interview whoever you want, Jack. After seeing this, I can't deny it."

Then Stella grabbed Jack's arm and ran out of the room towards the city.
