"So, what do we know so far?" I asked.

"Well, we know for a fact that it's an inside job," Garry replied.

"We think," I corrected him.

"So, let's say that it's an inside job," he said, "If it is, who are the suspects?"

"There are only two suspects--Anton and Sebastian," I told him.

He frowned, "What do we do now then?" he asked.

I took a deep breath, "Don't call me crazy, but I think we should spy on both of them."

"What? Are you saying we are going to violate their privacy?" he cried.

"I know it's bad but, we have no choice," I explained.

"You know, sometimes it's okay to do the bad things for the right reasons, but you have to remember the consequences."

"You in or out?"

"In!"

I was startled, "Wait, what? Then, what was the purpose of your speech?"

He laughed, "I just want you to think that I'm a genius. Plus I always wanted to be a detective."

"I thought you wanted to be an astronaut?" I asked.

"Part-time," he grinned.

Typical Garry.

"So, what are we going to do next?" he asked.

"Follow them," I told him, "Here is my plan. Each of us will follow each suspect. We will record what we see. Then, we meet. "

"What about Sebastian? Where is he?"

"He just arrived," I looked out the window.

"So, when do we start?"

"Tomorrow. We will discuss the plan again tonight. For now, let's have some rest."

"And eat!"

''And eat," I laughed.
