It was a dark and stormy night and Jorge was driving to investigate a house theft. As he was puling up to the house, Jorge saw a for sale billboard in front of the house. "Thats odd. Why would someone steal from a house that is being sold?"
ReplyDeleteJorge got out of his car almost forgetting to lock his door, because he saw a body bag and police tape around the drive way. So, Jorge thought, not only was there a theft but there was a murder.
"Grate," he said out loud.
"Hey you, " said one of the cops by the scene, "move along! This is a crime scene!"
"I know, I was called to investigate a theft at this house."
"Well, now your investigating a murder too, " the cop said. "...Oh and by the way I'm Cole"
"My name's Jorge." They both shook hands and walked over to the body. "So did you find any residue on the body?"
"What kind of residue?"
"Like gun powder, or poison?"
"No but there was a hole in her chest. But it's to big to be a bullet hole and it's not a knife hole because it's to wide."
"Ok but what the devil got stolen?"
"A yellow Diamond!"
ReplyDelete"A yellow Diamond?!"
"Yes, its rare. There are only three in existence."
"So who got murdered?"
"The owner of the Diamond! Duh."
"Ok, I will check out the mansion."
"You want to buy it?"
"No! I want to look at the Crime scene!"
"Ok, go on in."
Jorge walked into the mansion. "Lets see what happend. Whats this? A gun closet?... and the latch is broken?" Jorge searched the closet. "No bullets? It must be for show. I better keep looking."
Jorge walked up the stairs. "I wonder whats in the bedroom?"
Jorge walked to the bedroom. "The door is locked? Wait was there a bayonet in the closet? Oh yeah, there was I better go get it." Jorge walked down stairs and grabs the bayonet. "This will do."
Jorge approched the lock. "I hope this works." Jorge broke the knife of the bayonet and tried to pick the lock. Luckly, he succeeded and opened the door, "There is a body in here too? I better go tell the Police Chief."
"Hey Chief, someone else got murdered."
"Who?"
"I think its the owner's boyfriend."
"Why is the owners boyfriend here," asked Jorge.
ReplyDeletePolice Chief Cole scratched his head, "It look likes he was shot."
"So, wheres the bullet? Hold on a sec, there's a police car in the driveway?" He squinted at the new comers. "Wait! It's C.S.I. Miami. What are they doing here?"
"I don't know. Go ask them," replied the Chief.
"Fine, I will." Jorge walked out the door and confronted the C.S.I. detective. "What are you doing here?"
"Well what are you doing here? This is my investagation now."
"Whaaaaa-the?! I am the best investagator in PonyTrot Castle!"
"Well, I am the best detecteve in Miami." retorted the detective.
"Wait, there is a second car pulling into the driveway. Who are they?" asked the C.S.I. Miami detective.
"Thats a dude from criminal minds!" exclaimed Jorge. "Ugh, I'm going inside." Jorge walked inside.
Jorge looked around. "Wait, there's a hole in the wall." He called out the door, "Hey, chef. Come take a look."
"What? Oh, there's a hole in the wall."
"No dah." retorted Jorge. His eyes wandered around the room while the Chief directed his team to collect samples. "Whoa, that suit of armor! Look, its arm is blown off and look the amrmor is a little charred."
