Hello, I'm Detective Rodge Smith. Right now, I'm fighting from a mob boss.

I run from the place I was hiding and start shooting. I hide behind a wall when he start shooting back.

Geez, looks likes I've to retreat. I already loss so much blood. But after coming so far, even if I want to, I can't hold back.

When the shooting stop, I peek through wall to analyze my situation, only to find the worst.

Yeah, you're probably thinking death of any person I love. No, there is no one I can call they're related to me. But unfortunately, there is one.

My dumbass apprentice is in the middle of the battlefield. I would be died if he die. What could be the worst they can do? I'll be kick out.

They just push all the responsibility on me, with that shitty excuse of "you're his mentor, you should be protecting him".

Wow. Am I a babysitter?

They're about to shoot. Ignoring all the pain, I start running towards him.

They're about to shoot, things are about trigger up. I hate these situations. I just push him out of his death's grasp, letting myself fall too.

Don't get wrong idea. I don't wanna die or something.

I dodge those bullets by an inch. I swear, if we doesn't stuck here I'll  personally murder him, right now.

We're fighting a losing battle. We've t-

My vision started to blur, probably because of blood lose. I tried to pull myself up but my body is giving up.

I heard him calling my name, trying to get my senses back. But no use. I'm dying here.

I heard him smirk. As he said, "After so many years, I finally accomplish my mission to kill ya, Detective Smith. Gotta say, it's fun to work with ya. But we can't help the thing we long for, do we?"

Traitor.

He kick on the back of my head, making me bleed more. My white locks are stained in blood so do my whole body.

I try to collect myself up, only to get kicked down. I heard the voice of setting gun.

I suddenly get all of my energy together and kick the gun out of his hands. After that my body finally give up and I blacked out.

That's when I heard shooting. And the person fell down besides me.

Normal POV:

After 1 year of being imprisoned, Detective Rodge Smith still can't believe that they accused him for his apprentice's murder.

He can't help but try to forget these things. They didn't hang him to death since they were literally being stupid. Their points were nonsensical.

Why? Because he's the only one who left beside dead body.

But what now? Arguing with idiot is like putting a pearl in front of a pig.

He cannot handle detective work anymore, since he start getting old.

No that old, he's in his early 40s. Some people mistaken his age from his hair color. And some people mistake his age by his looks. How stupid anyone can be?

He sighed.

It's time to start a new life. To get away from all this crap. Without murders. Without weapons.

Next Day:

After rejected by so many job's interview, he finally get a job. But unfortunately, he get a job of teacher. Seriously? Does anyone ever expect detective playing as a teacher?

Probably not. Maybe yes.

What he can do now? He have to live with it, even if he don't wanna. And it's still a better choice over going back to his old life.

Now, the new life of his begins!
