Chapter 12
♣︎
Chewing on her hamburger, Sue leaned closer to the screen for a better look....
"Who is he?" She asked.
"Prime-tine.... CEO'' Eric said. Looking at his ipad.
Prime... what? Sue squeaks, not knowing what he is talking about.
"Prime-tine food & beverage pte Ltd '' Eric repeated his words again, making it clearer this time.
"Ohh... That. I got it..... wait a sec! ISN'T THAT THE BIGGEST FOOD-HOLDER OF RIDGEMOUNT TOWN???" She asks rather loudly. Realizing who they are searching on...
"Gosh, Don't shout. We are inside a rather small place!" Ri-Huan shouted back.
"Then how do you expect me to react?" She asks glaringly at the newbie guy.
Goes along with the other two giggling at their reaction.
"Ok, source, what's about this guy?" She asks, now changing into a serious tone.
"Check it out"
Eric passes her the ipad, and she scrolls through it. After a few minutes she finally got her answer.
....??
"Is he Sally O'Dillar boyfriend?" Rising her eyebrow at Eric.
"What? Who's boyfriend?" John asked her.
Now the four of them are crowding around Eric's work-desk, looking at their new discovery.
"Joshua Martin, 26 years old....founder of Prime-tine F and B company.... Use to work at--"
"BUNG! WHAT DID YOU GUYS FIND!?"
Both ladies came to join them as they came into the room.
"Here is the information," Eric said. Showing them on the big screen of the computer.
"Omf, we got the same information too" Rachel chips in.
The rest nodded, in amusement.
"Since everybody has a new piece of information regarding these two cases... Let's have a chat. Should we?" Ri-Huan suggested to the group.

8:30pm, 8th North Street, 5th avenue -
Prime-Tine Chill & co Bar....
"Dudes, could we go for Chinese food the next time when we go out for dinner again?" Ri-Huan asks the group as they chew on their rather late western dinner again.
The group now is at the bar mentioned by Susan earlier. They all eat their dinner in silence, until Ri-huan mentions to the group about suggesting a change in their food choices. One is to fill up their stomach, and two is to find the guy on their current suspect list.
"I wanna go for Chinese today. However we are on a case buddy.... I swear, next time. When we finish solving this crazy case" Eric pat the younger guy.
"I think every type of food has its own unique taste. I also agree that we should widen our food choices like what Ri-huan said...." John chip in.
"Good suggestion. I can't remember the last time I ate Chinese food" Rachel added.
Eventually the conversation ended up with everybody discussing the topic of foods, which is good. It definitely takes their mind off the case for a while too.They talk until their drinks arrive.
"What is our motive here today?" Rachal asks.
"To see if we could meet Joshua Martin. However I odd our chances are slim..." Sue reminds the group once again about their motive here...
Just then a waiter stops by to collect their finished plates, and has just heard about their conversation....
"Are you guys finding Mister Martin?" He asked the group. Rising his eyebrow at them. As he cleared away their plates on the table....
The group gets into their plan, and John gives the waiter a tip for their meals. With the rest nodding in unison.
That is where they got a surprise response from the waiter himself....
"You are in luck buddy. He is just at the back of the kitchen helping out the stuff today, as our place is busier than usual. Today he is also teaching them how to make the new dish that is coming out in our menu next week" He responded.
TADA!
Everybody's eyes are now on that guy as they didn't expect their plan to go this smoothly.
"Ok. Sure. Thanks a lot. We will wait for him to come." Sue responded back. Giving the waiter a small smile...
As soon as he left the table, Sue announced to the group in a loud whisper only they could hear...
"Everybody know the drill for tonight right?" She asks to confirm.
"Yes, Mdm '' Eric responded, and the rest nodded in unison.
With that, everybody springs into action....
