"Detective Thomas Reilly is on the scene!" Everyone's heads turned hearing the news.

They all saw the special Detective Reilly they had all heard about, he stood there taking the last inhale of his cigar before throwing it on the ground and stamping on it with his black shoes to put it out. He wore the brown long coat that you would see in the general detective cartoons a while back, an unshaved face and a unsatisfied look on.

He never spoke a word while he walked over to the crime scene, lifting up the tape and bending slightly to go under it and into the house. No one spoke a word either when they saw him examining the scene himself, they just watched, amazed at the sight of him being here.

"...What?" He asked confused as to what was going on.

"L-i-g-h-t..." He said again but slowly and then stuck out his hand.

The police officer quickly searched his pockets for a light and when he found one he took it out quickly. He noticed the detective had placed another cigar in his mouth, ...

"She deserved it!" He shouted at the Detective but he ignored it.

The Detective took the lighter from the officer as payment and lit another cigar.Without saying a word he walked out of the shop and down the street.
