......the setting sun presented a most enchanting scene yet it was saddening, the golden rays of the sinking sun hitting the coastal buildings turned the air sorrowful and heavy, he was ready to leave for his work on one of such sad evening, his name was Collin Pringle, he was part of the Scotland yard murder squad, he was kept for his good work but now he stayed out of violence and aggressive active duties, he was given less horrifying easy tasks because he was soon retiring, he felt empathy watching tge fishermen returning homeward at the end of the day and he would speak to himself , constable Pringle now it's time for you too to retire, this Scotland yard job never allowed you to think about yourself, just a few more weeks time before you will be a free man with lots of spare time, you can fulfill all your dreams then
He left for his job engrossed in his own world of imagination, he was on the patrolling duty, he was allotted a specific area the Northampton square, when he was still two blocks away from the Northampton square a girl suddenly appeared before him from the close by red brick building with dark glass windows
Constable, thank God you arrived she addressed him , she explained she had sent for him, she had sent a boy to call him but the boy wasn't anywhere around
Pringle hadn't seen any boy around and spoke it truthfully, perhaps he had gone away on a different route
The girl in distress was quite young he thought just twenty, she was ordinary looking, she had buck teeth not letting her lips close properly, her eyes seemed vacant and as if she had seen a ghost
