My name is Louis Vincent and my Old retiring partner is Roger Kane and my current job is to keep him occupied which I can tell you is not a problem at. all. Rather I wonder if we get even get to the surprise party we planned for him.

Roger is 70 years old and is extremely hardheaded which is good when he’s on the job he’ll keep cracking that nut of a case until it’s cracked. That’s why I’m keeping him occupied with several mysteries to be solved such as his missing book, the case of the missing belt buckle, the case of the missing door knob, and other such things but he solves those way too easily and is increasingly getting closer to solving the surprise party we have for him.

So now on the present time where he is solving two mysteries at the same time (I know right what is he even)

OK so the frosting that’s missing from this donut is because they ran out of frosting and they ran out of frosting because of budget cuts and they’re having budget cuts because the frosting place where they get the frosting is having an awful time getting the materials and because there having an awful time getting the materials the big man on top won’t pay them top dollar for the frosting materials. Roger said with a satisfied look like he didn’t just raddled off that whole thing “so young buck what’s next.”

“You still haven’t solved that other… “I get cut off

Yeah the Barbecue place Henry said that’s hard getting the meat here from the other state onward honestly it’s a simple as that Roger said again rattles off another mystery.

“Well I guess that’s it when I go back to the station and end your last day with a drink” I said hoping he wouldn’t take it

“Maybe after this one detour Henry said that there’s A meat place at this address to pick up the meat and drop it off here “ Roger said readying himself to get back to the car.

Sure thing Old man

It’s partner to you Young buck

We got in the car and drove to where the address was I said “hopefully this detour won’t be too long”

The place was probably not a meat packing place for sure it was a lot more of a Old flea market mall place and there was no light from the windows whatsoever. Then a thought dawn on me that “son of a rat Henry is in on this too?”

Roger walking faster than me open the door and let himself in seeing those dark he said hello loud into the echo with some breathing sounds in the background strangely (but expected)

The lights turn on with a big banner everybody of a round 300 people screamed “Surprise!!!!”

Rogers face smiled widely as he said “I knew it I didn’t know how they put this together but I knew there was a surprise waiting for me somewhere”

“Looks like this is a mystery we both solved eh?” I said looking on the spectacle of his amazement

To cut a long story short Roger enjoyed the party and at the end of it he gave his badge and gave away all his books to me at the end of it all we shook hands and went off to his retirement which he calls me still to this day wondering if I read such and such book lately and that if you read this you’ll be an excellent detective like he was I read the book but I’m not telling him that can’t give him too much of an ego can I?

Well as the new head detective I ought to find a new partner pretty soon.
