For the next two hours, the whole team is inside the conference room as Sue goes through the two cases shown on the projector screen.....

"First victim, Sally O'Dillar. Accountant Manager of Starlight Tech. She's been working there for three and a half years already. Age 25. Female. Currently living at Hillview street 35 A-75 with her parents.... " She briefed as Susan gave out the papers of the victims details.

"She was found by a group of young campers last week at Evergreen Forest, at the very back where there is a clear open space for people to sit down there and rest or have a bonfire when they are on a camping trip" she explained again the further details.

Then a hand rises up.

"Yes. Rachel?" She asks the young police lady who raises her hand.

Uhm.... why does the killer want to leave her body there? Isn't that obvious for people to find out?" The girl asked.

"Yes. It is... Either is he leave it there on purpose or he is really dumb" She answered. Her last few words earned John and Eric to giggle slightly....

Giving the two a grim expression she continued with her talk.

"When we found her, she didn't have any belongings with her. Nor her wallet or any sort of car key. It is assumed that she is being killed somewhere, before the killer dumps her body at the crime scene which actually also took us sometime to get her identity and to officially start processing the whole case." She finished.

On a cue, Susan took over and explained more on the autopsy side.

"Based on the autopsy report and the injuries she has on her body. She is most likely dragged there. As her clothes are thorn and there is dried blood on her back. Then got stabbed on the ribcage. Which left a very deep wound on it.... on the other hand we believe she's not just simply killed by the murderer but beaten up badly by the other party too. You can see the wounds on her body".... she briefs while flashing the pictures on the screen.

Based on what they saw on the projector screen the victim's upper body has blue-black bruises and some wounds are horribly bad as they could see a number of bruises in dried blood. Mostly on her back, arms and legs....

"Gosh. This person is such an asshole" Eric said.

"More like a devil monster" John said after him.

"I could curse him with a thousand sus words. Mother-fucker, son of the bitch" Rachel said after them.

"Excuse me ladies and gentlemen" Sue said, eyeing the three of them opposite her.

"Sorry Mdm '' The three said in unison together. Which earned another round of giggled laughing, now on the entire team. Even Susan who is at the front even let out a small giggle.

"Next! Who's turn!" Susan called out. As this briefing has a few parts so around a small number of them take a part to brief on their respective findings of the cases.

Suddenly a weird sound came across the room. Making everybody look around for the source of the sound.

~Grrrrrruuuuuaaaaaallllll~ 

"Anybody want to grab lunch? Ahm.... My stomach is making funny noises...." Rachel said, as she rubbed her stomach.

.......

"Ok. Let's go take a break. My brain needs to breathe too after this whole two hours of brainstorming" Sue spoke up, with her head leaning on one of her hands tell-tale signs that she is draining out her energy....

With this the whole team grin and get out of the small office in no time to take some fresh air and to clear their brains for the moment....
