F. 3
CBTThe following night. CBT Headquarters. Conference room.
Queenie: My job is done.*hand the file to Light*
Shengyi: Me too... Here you go.*hand another file to him*
Miss Cherry: This time even I can't interfere with this case. It's so maddening.
Light: Now that Arron's the prime suspect, everyone that is related to him cannot be involved...
Lynn: Does that means now CBT only have four people left to work on this case?
Light: You're right...
Everyone sighed.
Yingjie: Don't be so sad! Brace up!
Light: Is that a good thing that you're positive?
Shengyi: Well, the three of us should be going, bye...
Yingjie: See you!
Shengyi: Good luck.
Light: Hey, it's time to take statements...
--------------------------
In the hospital. Hebe's ward.
Jiro: How are you feeling now?
Hebe: Arron... He's really... 007... Isn't he?
Jiro: You finally used your brain!
Hebe: Why am I so stupid?! I should know that long ago...
Jiro: Don't get too agitated, you have a baby now.
Hebe: How's Arron?
Jiro: He's locked up now, his case hearing is scheduled at two weeks from now.
Hebe: Oh...*wanted to stand up*
Jiro: Hey what do you think you are doing?
Hebe: I'm going to look for him.
Jiro: You're not going to leave this place.
Hebe: Why?
Jiro: The doctor said that your baby might be unstable, you can't leave now.
Hebe: But...
Jiro: Hey no matter how much you hate him, don't take it out on the baby.
Hebe: I don't hate him...
Jiro: You don't hate him? You hurt him so much and you said you don't hate him?
Hebe: If I knew Arron is 007, I would never do things to hurt him.
Jiro: You know what?
Hebe: What?
Jiro: I planned to quit.
Hebe: You want to quit Black Dogs?
Jiro: Yeah, I have already decided... How about you? Do you want to quit with me?
Hebe: I can't just quit...
Jiro: Hey just because Boss is your biological father you must do whatever he says. Just disown him, man.
Hebe: But we are related by blood.
Jiro: But Selina's parents does treat you well, you just take it as you don't know Boss, you are not involved in Black Dogs, okay?
Hebe: Easier said than done.
Jiro: It's easy. You just walk to Boss and say I quit and slammed the door. Haha. I'm only joking. Don't take it seriously.
Hebe: Let's change the topic, can we?
Jiro: Fine... You know why Arron break up with you?
Hebe: I knew that he didn't really mean what he said. So what's the reason?
Jiro: I guessed you know that you almost got kidnapped, almost got hit by a flower pot and almost run over by a car right?
Hebe: I knew they weren't accidents, you were the one behind all that?
Jiro: At that time I really hated Arron so...
Hebe: You forced him to break up with me or you would harm me?
Jiro: God, can you don't be so clever? I'm not used to it. And, I didn't force him, we had a wager.
Hebe: Is it the basketball match?
Jiro: Can you don't... Argh!
Hebe: Okay, fine, you talk, I keep my mouth shut.
--------------------------------------------------
Police station. In a room.
Light: On the 10th of April, 9-10pm, where were you and what were you doing?
Arron: No comment.
Light: Arron, please cooperate.
Arron: I really have nothing to say.
Light: If you are not going to say anything, how are we supposed to clear your name?
Arron: I trust CBT can prove my innocence.
Light: How are we going to do that if you refuse to say anything?
Arron:*smiled* Just treat it that I'm testing you guys.
Light: I knew I can't persuade you... By the way, Hebe's in hospital.
Arron: What's wrong with her? Is she okay?
Light: Don't worry, both the mother and baby are fine.
Arron: That's great...
-----------------------
Jiro: By the way, have you thought of a name for your child?
Hebe: Arron likes to name him using four seasons.
Jiro: Four seasons? Cool, he planned to have four children and all four sit around one table to play poker.
Hebe: Don't teach my child the wrong things, okay?
Jiro: Fine. So, first child is Spring? Quite a nice name, then if it was me let me use the weather.
Hebe: Weather?
Jiro: Yeah, Sunny, Windy, Rainy, Snowy.
Hebe: How did you think of so weird names? I don't want my future nephews and nieces to be called that.
Jiro: Who says my child would be your nephew?
Hebe: I thought me and Arron were stupid, you are more stupid.
Jiro: That's it, I'm warning you. Why are both of you keep calling me stupid?
Hebe: Because you are.
Jiro: Hahaha, not funny.
Hebe: When are you confessing to Selina?
Jiro: This is even not funny.
Hebe: It's not a joke, I'm serious.
Jiro: Why you and Arron both like to match me and Sel up? We're only friends.
Hebe: Because both of us can tell that she likes you, and you like her too.
Jiro: We are only friends, what's wrong with that?
Hebe: Hey, a guy and girl that likes each other cannot only be friends.
Jiro: Okay, fine, I admit that I do like her, so?
-------------------------------------------------
Police station. In another room.
Yingjie: What's your relationship with Arron?
Prince: Don't ask the obvious.
Yingjie: Hey, just play along with me, I didn't get a chance to question people before. Now that CBT is shorthanded... HAHAHA!
Prince: Hey do you still want to take my statement?
Yingjie: Okay, fine! Prince is acting cool... So, do I write 'twin brother', 'long-lost brother', 'friends at first but realised they are brothers' or...
Prince: Just write 'brothers'.
Yingjie: Okay... Then how close you guys are... Hmmm, do I write 'extremely close', 'extremely good' or...
Prince: Just write ' very close', okay?
Yingjie: Okay... Next question... Do you believe that Arron would kill? Do I write 'strongly disagree', 'disagree', 'neutral'...
Prince: Stop! What do you think this is? A survey?!
Yingjie: Is that the wrong thing to do?
Prince: Of course! Now, you ask whatever questions and you write down whatever I say, okay?
Yingjie: Okay! So, when is the last time you seen Arron?
Prince: Yesterday... Our family usually eat dinner at 7pm sharp and yesterday was no exception.
Yingjie: After dinner?
------------------------
Another room.
Miss Fan: After dinner, I remembered about 8.15pm, he came to my room and asked me something.
Lynn: Why were you so sure of the timing?
Miss Fan: I was supposed to do my facial and he barged in, I'm still very angry, I tell you.
Lynn: How long did he stayed in your room?
Miss Fan: I give him some papers and he went back to his own room to look at them. It was less than 5 minutes.
Lynn: After that?
------------------
Another room.
Genie: I remembered he went out about 8.30pm.
Light: Why were you that sure?
Genie: I was jogging at the park near our house and I met him at the doorstep. When I came in, the television was playing the 8.30 show.
Light: 8.30... That's sufficient time for him to travel to the crime scene... How? We need to find a time abidi.
Genie: Did Third Brother say anything?
Light: He refused to say a word.
Genie: You might want to try letting Hebe talk to him.
Light: You are right...
-------------------------
Jiro: The one that caused the accident is me, if I didn't choose that day...
Hebe: Anyway, Genie can see now right? She's happily going out with Danson although they are not dating yet but I reckon they would be soon.
Jiro: That's a good thing... But me and Sel? Impossible.
Hebe: I used to think that I won't fall for Arron, look what happen? Anything can happen, okay?
Jiro: Yours is a special case of genius and idiot. Wait, you're not a idiot now.
Hebe: I wished I was still an idiot.
Jiro: You can be if you want.
Hebe: Wait, stop changing the topic, we're talking about you and Selina.
Jiro: See, some parts of you are still the stupid Hebe.
Hebe: Stop changing the topic.
Jiro: Spring's mom, I am so not used to the clever you, I'm getting out of here.
Hebe: Wait, about Arron...
Jiro: Don't worry, I will keep you updated.
Hebe: Thank you, Spring's godfather.
Selina has just arrived to visit Hebe.
Jiro: Argh! Why can't you get pregnant few years later? I'm too young for a father.
Hebe: Sorry, it's not my fault that someone make me pregnant.
Jiro: Hey, you mean it's my fault?
Hebe: Yes.
Selina:*Thinking*Jiro made Hebe pregnant?!
Hebe: If not for the wager, Arron won't break up with me, I won't get myself drunk, and...
Jiro: I regretted telling you about the wager.
Hebe: Too late to regret now.
Jiro: Spring's mom, can you revert to the old stupid you?
Hebe: I'll try.
Jiro: Whatever, bye.
Hebe: Bye, Spring's...
Jiro: Stop calling me that! ARGH!
Hebe started laughing.
Jiro walked out of the room and saw Selina.
Jiro: Hey... You didn't heard our conversation, did you?
Selina: What were you guys talking about that I couldn't hear?
Jiro: Nothing much. *Thinking*Thank God she didn't hear that I liked her...
Selina:*Thinking*Jiro... Does he likes Hebe? Isn't the father Arron? Why did...
Jiro: Sel? Sel!
Selina: What?
Jiro: What are you thinking?
Selina: Jiro...
Jiro: Yeah?
Selina: You and Hebe...
Jiro: Why?
Selina: Nothing...
Jiro: Sel, are you okay? What's wrong? Are you feeling sick?*touched her forehead*
Selina: *avoided his hand*I'm fine. *walked into Hebe's ward*
Jiro:*Thinking*Weird... Why am I over-reacting?
