Liz was working at her office, when the phone rang.
“Sheriff Forbes” she zei short when she answered.
“Sheriff Forbes, hi” Stefan replied. “I was wondering how it’s going with the murder on Gabe Lindy”
“I’m sorry, Stefan. I can’t give away such information” Liz answered.
“I’m going to take a wild guess and say the corpse is missing” Stefan zei amused. A few seconden of complete silence followed. Stefan had asked Katherine to compel the sheriff to forget he knocked her down and took the body.
“What do u know about that?” Liz eventually asked.
“Doesn’t matter” Stefan avoided the question. “But I think I might be able to help you. I think u should take a look inside Rachel Lindy’s house”
“Stefan, if u know something, u have to tell me” Liz zei strict.
“I just did” Stefan replied, even meer amused. “You’re going to have to trust me on this, Liz. I promise u won’t be disappointed”
Ten minuten later Liz stood in front of Rachel’s house. Since no one answered the door when she rang, she tried the door and successfully opened it.
“Mrs. Lindy?” she called. There was no reply. She walked through the hallway into the kitchen. There was no one.
Sheriff Forbes, having quite some experience in the matter, looked for the basement, switched the light on when she found it and went downstairs.
She found the corpse near the window. She conjured her phone and dialed a number.

Title: To Helen [Poem of Youth]
Author: Edgar Allan Poe [More Titles door Poe]
HELEN, thy beauty is to me
Like those Nicean barks of yore,
That gently, o'er a perfumed sea,
The weary way-worn wanderer bore
To his own native shore.
On desperate seas long wont to roam,
Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face,
Thy Naiad airs have brought me home
To the glory that was Greece,
And the grandeur that was Rome.
Lo ! in yon brilliant window-niche
How statue-like I me thee stand,
The agate lamp within thy hand!
Ah, Psyche, from the regions which
Are Holy-land !
-THE END-
