Then Dalton's focus turned to Delainy as he approached her saying," Ok Delainy, if you love solving crimes as much as I do, you'll love it here. Over there, the table with the flowers on it is Corey's table, amazing guy. He is known as The Lead Detective here because of his quick thinking. And even though, he seems like a tough guy he's a real big softy" ,passing by Corey's empty table and desk.
" That's strange. Normally he'll be here before me. Anyway, this table here is Viviane's. Her table is this neat because she have OCD in regards to symmetry and order, which despite her continuous comments of why she hate having OCD, I always admired her for it. That and her ability to think without her thoughts straying which is probably not related in any way." Dalton explained looking at her table which is as neat as ever before walking and plopping down on the chair by his presumed table. Unlike Viviane's perfectly neat table, Dalton's table was quite untidy; more untidy than most. There was no food or drinks by his table though, it was mostly paperwork, a few figurines dog related figurines and framed pictures propped at the corners; two with dogs and one with a woman smiling brightly.
" Although, there are a lot of other amazing people in this station, I would like to skip to our desks. This one I'm at is mine and yours is right there" Dalton said pointing at the table close to his, with a badge resting in the middle.
" I have a random question I want to ask you" Delainy announced.
" Shoot"
"I'm sorry if it may seem rude but do you have Adhd?" Delainy inquired.
" Based on your answer to this question it might. Why do you ask?" Dalton revealed.
" Well because you desk is very untidy and due to the amount of dog related items I believe you have a fixation with dogs" Delainy explained.
" Yes I do but I could have also just been a very messy person who loves dogs. If you had found more hints to narrow it down you would've been more comfortable to ask that question." Dalton suggested
" I'm sorry" Delainy apologized.
" No, no, I didn't say it was rude. Honestly I don't mind. This was just a little test. Take this as your first lesson. Gather as much information you can before coming to a conclusion. But you still did good" Dalton explained.
" I will. Thank you" Delainy responded.
Just then, Delainy noticed a few people sneaking up behind Dalton and hinting Delainy pretend they're not there which she did but Dalton had noticed when she looked behind him and spun his chair slightly to see Corey and Viviane and a few others from the station.
" Morning and how are you back so soon Dalton? Did Mr. Dailey tell you to come back to work?" Viviane asked Dalton concerned for his health.
" No Viviane, it's quite the opposite actually" Dalton revealed but before he can explain further, a police officer radioed that a detective was needed at Mehar, Sodton drive, house 6 for a homicide committed
