THE SILENT CONSULTATIONS of August and Brightt’wardsthe faceted tips of the start of their investigation echoed like a canyon reverberating their thoughts back at them. “Four perfect alibis, one memory-loss, and the mayor of the...us.” Bright was recappingthe two-hour interview with the potential suspects. He stood leaned at the doorway to listen if a commotion rises outside. “All present evidences lead towards an external suspect but my gut tells me that’s not the case.” To August, the death seemed so specifically crafted that there’s only a small chance of her dying to a third-party.

Ennio Morricone played hisItalian epic spaghetti Western film of a work to arrogate the saloon scene of Albert’s double door push. Although this instance, all three of the titles synthesized into the one man behind the counter who gave him all his shots; the opportunity, the bullets and the poison.

Then, exactly after 4 minutes and 31 seconds, he switched themusicto the more upbeat one. Tchaikovsky’s Waltz of the Flowers seemed like an obvious choice, so he went with it. And with the amazing half a minute mark of a height elevation, he switched from

Firstly, the impromptu conversation with the ice cream lady didn’t go as smoothly as he’d expected.
