CC fanmade case

Jones never thought he would see this day.

(Flashback)

"Mom's in a bad mood again."

"I know."

June and Sheng stayed in their room while their mother was screaming downstairs.

"THAT RAT! THAT FUCKING LITTLE RAT, I TOLD THAT DAMN KID TO CATCH THAT RAT! THAT GOOD FOR NOTHING LITTLE SHIT CAN'T EVEN DO ONE SIMPLE TASK!" And so on about June not being able to catch a rat.

"... Was the rat in the cubby again?"

"Yep. They're hard to not miss in there." June sighed as he took a pack of gum, put one in his mouth and handed another to Sheng. "Don't be like mom when you grow up."

"... June?"

"What's up."

"Are you... really gonna leave? To be be a soldier? Just like you said when you and mom were fighting?"

"..."

"That's okay." Sheng crossed his legs and chewed on the gum. "Mom's pretty scary."

"... Yeah. But I'm the big bad wolf. And I'm gonna gobble you up for being the silliest kid." And he imitated a wolf by ticking his brother's neck which made him giggle.

But the laughter soon died as did the smiles did as well. "I miss Carlos."

June looked sadly at Sheng that he also missed their older brother. "... Me too."

"June, even if.... you leave, will we always be brothers?"

June looked at Sheng with ease and worry. "Of course we will." He gave Sheng an embrace that kindly accepted safety and love. "No matter life or death."

(End Flashback)

GPD was chilling in the break area.

Grace and Ramirez sat next to eachother as the table curved. Next to Ramirez was Nathan who had Kailin stuck between him and Alex. She didn't seem to mind it as she and Alex were talking about the new Tech movie. Next to Alex was Jones then finally June.

(So if you're confused: Grace👉Ramirez👉Nathan👉Kailin👉Alex👉Jones👉June) lol

"Imagine hating the best chicken here. Could be me." Grace picked up a chicken made out of cardboard.

Nathan sighed. "This made the cafeteria lunch back in school look delicious."

Ramirez picked up a sandwich that was made from his wife. "Damn, I feel sorry for y'all."

"NO ALEX, IT'S FUCKING BROCCOLI AND BEEF!"

"NO, IT'S BEEF AND BROCCOLI!"

Jones started to looked like Alex and Kailin's conversation was getting out of hand. "What's going on, you two."

"KAILIN SAYS IT'S BROCCOLI AND BEEF BUT I SAY BEEF AND BROCCOLI! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THAT!"

"NO IT'S NO?!?!?!? LMAO?!?!?"

(Now this was based on a real conversation I had 💀)

Jones looked with confusion and recieved the same look from June who spoke up. "Why does it matter? You can just come to terms that it's whatever."

Kailin couldn't let this slide though. "Look, bastard, we can take this later, OUTSIDE or ask Google."

Alex couldn't help but agree with the terms. "Alright, go, go for it!"

June couldn't help but look with shame. "What the hell, you two."

Suddenly, a speaker awoke. "If I may have Inspector Jones, Tech Stanford and Captain Shiloh in my office please! I repeat, I would like to have Inspector Jones, Tech Stanford and Captain Shiloh in the chief's office. Please and thank." The speaker hung up.

"Well, there goes the rest of our break."

"Well, this might be a murder."

"Well, we're fucking taking this fight later, Alex."

The called trio made it to Chief King's office.

"Gentlemen and Kailin. I'm afraid there's been a murder back at the park. A starved person in fact which is disturbing."

"Alright Chief, we'll head on-"

"Wait a second, June. I know this is gonna sound uncommon, but I'm gonna need you to head home for the day."

"What, wha... am I fired?!"

"No! No. No. Nobody's gonna get fired. You're not fired or in trouble. I just... need you to head home for the day. I'd rather Inspector Jones and Tech Stanford on this case. And no, I don't wanna argue about this, June."

June felt... unsteady and left with a saddened face. He closed the door behind him and inched his ear onto it.

"Chief, what's going on? June would usually go with me! He's my partner!"

"I know I've been new here for like... 5 cases, but aren't they always together????"

"I KNOW. I.... his brother. His brother, Sheng Shiloh, was found dead at the park. And until you two break it to him, he cannot know."

June lets himself off the door. He started to walk out of the building.

"No. No, no, no, no, Sheng, no. No. No, no no no no no no no no no, no no no, NO, NO NO NONONONONONONONONONONONO...."

June felt... numb. He felt... adrenaline. He felt like... he needed to get to the park before thay do.

A d with that thought, he ran out as Jones and Kailin left the chief's office.

"How are we gonna tell him? He's gonna have a breakdown about this..."

"We don't know, but we gotta get to the park."

June didn't know that he had it in him to run this far to the park where it had a quiet area.

"NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO"

He made it past the benches and the streets. But it seemed like Jones andd Kailin with some more officers came before him.

"NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO"

June started to lose his breath, but he didn't care. He wanted to see if it was someone else. If it wasn't his brother. It's can't be.

Jones noticed him from a distance.

"June?! GET OUT OF HERE, IT'S NOT WORTH IT!"

NONONONONONONONO

"GET OUT OF MY WAY!!"

NONONO

"JUNE, PLEASE!" Jones held onto June like he was a robot trying to break free from wires.

"LET GO OF ME! SHENG! SHENG! SHENG!" June started to sob as he called out for his brother.

Paramedics passed by them with a body on a mat that was being carried to Nathan back in GPD.

No.

June remembered those braids. And the soft teeth. And the tight curls.

It really was his brother.

June screamed in agony and despair as he then sobbed onto Jones's chest.

"June... I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry, I never wanted you to find out like this."

June looked up with anger- no. WAR in his eyes.

"I'M GONNA KILL THEM! I SWEAR TO GOD, I'M GONNA KILL WHO DID THIS TO HIM!"

Jones looked with a terrified look on his face. He never wanted to see June like this. "No, June, you don't want that!"

"SHUT UP, FUCK OFF! DON'T TELL ME WHAT- what I want, I want my little brother back!" He once again cried into Jones's chest. Loud, muffled sobs were coming out.

"Kailin, I'm gonna bring June home. Can you find anything that's might help us with the case?"

"Sure. Just tell him to take a break back home."

"Jones... Jones please, find who did this... please..." June grabbed onto Jones's shirt with despair in his face. "...please..."

Jones took June by the hand and took him to the car. "I promise."

After bringing June back home, Jones raced back to Kailin. "Find anything?"

"I found his bag here. Went through his stuff and found a phone and an ID. It shows he worked at a carwash."

"Then we should send the phone to Alex and see if he finds anything. Meanwhile, let's go to the carwa-"

"Hello, is there something going on here?"

Jones and Kailin turned around to find a lady with a white shirt, blue sweats and blonde hair with orange eyes. "I'm supposed to meet my boyfriend here."

Kailin showed the same sass the lady was giving. "Yeah, well, this is a crime scene now, lady."

"A crime scene? Just my damn luck. Have you seen a certain... Sheng Shiloh? I'm supposed to be meeting him here."

Jones and Kailin looked at each other than looked back at the suspect. "What's your name?"

"Anquezze Robert. Hold on, I know you..." she points to Jones. "You're one of the greatest cops in Grimsborough! Where's your partner? My boyfriend's related to him!"

Jones looked in shame. "Unfortunately, Captain Shiloh cannot be in this case. His brother, who also was your boyfriend, was unfortunately left here to die."

"Oh! That's tragic!"

"We're sorry for your loss, ma'am. We know that this is tragic."

"Well, not really. I'm a little shocked, but I'm not that saddened."

Kailin and Jones looked in suprise. Kailin spoke. "Lady, your boyfriend just died?! How could you not care?!"

"Well..." Anquezze spoke with a softer, yet annoyed voice. "He and I have been having arguments lately about our relationship. He's been noticing that I've been reading playboys. I've been noticing he's been more focused on work and honestly, he told me to come here at this time a few days ago. And... this is a turn of events."

Kailin looked up to Jones as he came with a conclusions. "Well, we might need to talk to you again, so hang tight, Miss Robert."

Kailin and Jones separated as Jones went to the carwash and Kailin went over to Alex back at GPD.

Kailin and Alex examined the phone in their database.

Alex turns over to Kailin. "So this is actually the victim's phone! Now be warned, suggestive stuff coming in."

"Ew."

"I know. And I saw a photo of the night the victim was left to die! The photo was shown our killer. Sadly, there's no face, but the killer tried to break in and typed the wrong password and a photo was taken! And the photo was.... a playboy."

"So our killer owns a playboy. Pervert."

Jones was at the carwash and looked around. He noticed how there was a shirt with blood on it. It seems white.

"Guess I'll just send this to Grace..."

As he was about to leave, he heard a voice call out to him.

"Ay, bro! You dropped your key!"

Jones turned around and saw his car keys onto the floor. How did he not notice. Or heard. What the fuck. This is why Chief King bullys him. For fuck's sake, they were car keys that can make a lot of noise. We need to bully him about this now. (/j, ily Jones 😭😭😭)

As he picked it up, he looked up to the voice. There was a man with a black mohawk and amber eyes with a white tank top and some jeans. "Howdy! I'm Jack Blaziken. I'm the owner of the carwash."

"Oh, lovely. Have you seen a certain Sheng Shiloh around here?"

"Lousy ass? Eh, he's a good dude, just always late. Speaking of which, he hasn't come by for a few days! The audacity!"

"Well, his reason to not come is because he was left to die. We found him tonight."

"Oh."

"When's the last time you saw him, Jack?"

"When it was like 2 or 3 days ago. Been reading my playboys all afternoon yesterday because of how boring it was getting without the champ. Guess, I might as well find some more workers..." and with that, Jack went back to his little office.

Kailin and Jones reunite to share information as they waited for Grace and Nathan.

"Man, this case is... getting wild and it's only starting."

Jones was looking a little sad. "I just really hope that June's gonna be okay."

"Y'mean the little freak finally having it? What a party."

Jones and Kailin groaned of the familiar voice behind them. At least they understand June's frustration. "What do you want, Frincley."

"Just a howdy to my teammates! Well, to at least two of em."

"We're not your teammates, asshole. And leave June's name out of your mouth if you're just gonna talk shit."

"Well, whatever. That damn (homophobic slur) is just being a baby cuz his bro died."

Jones immediately stood up the same time Grace had walked out the room. "The fuck did you just say?" Kailin rushed over in front of Jones. "No, no! Jones, he's not worth it!"

Grace coughed up for attention to her. "If I may, everyone."

Jones, annoyed, looked at Frincley and walked into Grace's lab.

"Yeah that's right, boy. All bark, no bite."

Kailin lost it. "Y'know, just because you're a sad wash up doesn't mean you get to have shit your way, Frincley. You're pretty much useful as a fucking nail who can only do damage, so why not find something else to take your anger out on instead of being a useless stiff man who just sits around all day."

"Grrrr! You're only new here and you still got sass. I like it. Feel free to scratch me kitty." And with that, he let a purring sound to mock Kailin.

Grace took off her heel and slammed Frincley in the face with it. Frincley fell on the ground.

"Now, people." Grace put her heel back on and lead Jones and Kailin toward her lab.

"Is he always like that?! Why not fire him or something?!"

"He has a tight contract with the mayor, I'll explain later. What's up Grace?"

"So I managed to look on the shirt you gave me and can confirm that this is the victim's blood. I can't say how that got there, so you'll have to wait for Nathan to answer. But what I can say is that he was not wearing a white shirt!"

"So that means..."

"Yep! This is your killer's shirt!"

"Sweet. Thanks, Grace. You're a whole girlboss."

"Aw, thank you, Kailin. I can say the same for you."

Both people soon walked into Nathan's lab. Nathan was there with a disgusted face.

Jones whispered to Kailin. "If even Nathan looks sick, you know it's that bad." Then he turned to Nathan. "Everything okay?"

Nathan looked to the partners. "This... this is fucked up. I found an open head wound which shows that the victim was knocked out. But that's not all, embrace yourselves." He stood up. "The killer went and tied him up in the cloth and rope w/ knots, and he was hung and left upside down, not for hours, but for days. He died by... starvation and dizziness. But mostly starvation. Starvation is your murder weapon. But then I noticed that there was wine on him. I ran blood tests and he doesn't drink."

"Now we know our killer drinks wine and we got the... well... cause of death. You guys would usually find murder weapons which is rare in here." Kailin wrote this down.

Jones and Kailin were stuck back Jones's office.

"So our killer drinks wine, has a white shirt and... reads sex magazines."

"Jack seems bummed about the murder while Anquezze doesn't really give a shit." Jones thought hard. He ended up with a conclusion that... he didn't want to end up with. "Maybe I'm getting a little too into this, but June never really talks to us about his past and never talks about his family."

"And? They're related, so we outta help June a little!"

"We are... but... June had a whole breakdown which you saw. And he has to know maybe something about Sheng as his brother."

Kailin looked with concern. "You don't mean..."

Jones returned with the same look, only a little sadness. "Yes. I am suggesting it." He crossed his fingers and pressed them to his lips.

"Junely Shiloh may have to be a suspect in this case."
