A look of delight appeared on Zoe Sawyer's face as she pushed the door open. Before she could get a clear look inside, someone took hold of her left hand.
Surprised, she looked up to find Heath Hale standing beside her with a serious expression. Noticing her gaze, he said in a matter-of-fact tone, "If we watch together, we can spot anything unusual faster, remember more clues, and solve the case sooner.
Now, focus on the scene. Don't miss a single potential clue."
Hearing this, Zoe Sawyer instinctively looked away from him and focused on the scene before her.
When she saw Kai Thorne and Marcus Thompson come in through the door, she pushed aside the flicker of confusion that had just surfaced.
'He's right. Solving the case is what's most important right now.'
