Being a police detective is not that easy, you got to have patients, confident, courage,

commitment, trusting your instinct, teamwork and above all you need to follow what your
heart might say because not all cases are what you think it is.

Det. Jo Lumacay: do we have a suspect?

Det. Jo Lumacay: Morning Red!

Det. Red Durias: People, places, loved ones and enemies alike, all gone, lost forever. Even
one distant memory of me. We can only imagine what her final thoughts were. Fear, anger
well never know. Everything is forgotten in death.

Det. Red Durias: Morning Jo!


Det. Jo Lumacay: so hows your weekend with Angel Locsin? LOL
Det. Red Durias: Nah! Nothing special, I dump her ;).
Det. Jo Lumacay: why? She seems kind a hot. -)
Det. Red Durias: well you got that right, but I am not looking for a girl just because of her big
boobs and hot body, I want to have a loving girl, who will take care of me and love me for the
rest of my life.
Det. Jo Lumacay: thats suck.
Det. Red Durias: hey why are we speaking English?
Det. Jo Lumacay: well chiefs order and he have surveillance all over the precinct so if we
speak our native language, we will be going back to school to learn English.
Det. Red Durias: Hate this place!
Officer 1: Detectives we have a body.
Det. Jo Lumacay: where?
Officer 1: Sta. Filomena, DMCCF
Det. Red Durias: all right, time to work.
We are told that those who ignore the past are doomed to repeat it. While those who dwell
in the past would love nothing more than to repeat it, over and over again. But memories, like
photographs, have a way of fading with time. But some memories are so powerful that they
never fade. Memories which become more powerful every time we remember them. Thus
making our present lives seem a little more faded. But lets not think about that now.
Det. Jo Lumacay: do you have ID the victim sergeant?
Sgt. Yntig: yes, we have a male dead body. Victims name is Condoriano A. Nazareno, 23
years old. Graduate of BSCRIM here in DMC top of his class, Rank 3 at Licensure Board
examination for criminology, got his Masters degree at UP and somehow decided to teach
here, where he graduated, his the school criminology department dean.

Sgt. Yntig: nope!

Sgt. Yntig: wow! Nice thats very nice.


M.E: on the scene the victims died of a heart attack. Traces of vomit, no hemorrhage, or
bruising.
Det. Red Durias: did you ask from his colleague?
Sgt. Yntig: apparently, nope. :0
Det. Red Durias: hey its just me or is that guy have and erection?
Det. Jo Lumacay: yeah, your right!
Sgt. Yntig: well I dont think he died from that since I never heard person died from an
erection.
Det. Red Durias: sergeant what evidence do we have?
Sgt. Yntig: well, we got no murder weapon, the guy didnt die from any kind of attack, but
base on what we seen on the room, the guy are straggling for something, we also found a
glass of water and food on his desk and we found a grain of rice on his mouth, its looks like
the victim was eating right after he died. And also a lots of fingerprint. Maybe the M.E is right,
this guy died from a heart attack.
Det. Red Durias: yeah but we need to prove it. Check his medical history if he has a heart
problem. oh and sergeant make sure to scan those print, one of them may be our suspect.
Sgt. Yntig: alright!
Det. Jo Lumacay: who was the first person who saw the victim?
Sgt. Yntig: ah his name is Jecky Cortes. ;).
Det. Red Durias: Jecky? What kind of name is that?
Sgt. Yntig: well he is the vice dean.
Det. Jo Lumacay: ok then, lets go talk to him.

Det. Red Durias: WeW! ;0, Time of death?

Det. Red Durias: Hi there Jecky, (smirking while asking to Jecky) Im Detective Durias this is
Detective Lumacay; we would like to ask a few question about the victim.

Sgt. Yntig: well base on the discovery of the body, about 12:45pm, forensic proved it.

Jecky Cortes: is there something funny detective?

Det. Red Durias: no its not that I just remember something.

Det. Jo Lumacay: Red; the M.E assistant said to come back tomorrow for the autopsy result.

Det. Jo Lumacay: do know if the victim has any enemy? Does he get into a fight or
something that might threaten his life?

Det. Red Durias: inform the chief.

Jecky Cortes: no. Condoriano is a good man, everybody loved him.

Det. Jo Lumacay: sir the M.E office said that there will be no result until tomorrow.

Det. Red Durias: Tell us about the victim?

Chief Jake Cortex: Hmmp. ok, but I want result tomorrow.

Jecky Cortes: Weve been together as an officemate for about 3 years now, his a good guy,
like I said everybody loved him, he has no enemy in our knowledge, dough we dont socialize
outside work but here at the office we hangout if it is break time, Condoriano is a likeable guy.

Det. Jo Lumacay: roger that!

Det. Red Durias: tell us how you found the victim.?

Det. Red Durias: Then we could go home then?

Jecky Cortes: well it was after lunch, I went back to the office and go straight to my desk, I
was alone and no one is there and all of the sudden I heard a strange noise coming from
Condorianos office its like something feel into the floor. I shouted out to him asking what
happened but I didnt get any answer, and so I decided to his office and I found him lying on
the floor, I grab his head and put it on my leg and shaking him, trying to wake him up but I
couldnt saw/feel him breathing, I check up his pulse and there is no pulse and so I shouted
for help, someone saw me and call for help, a few minutes the school nurse comes rushing in
but she said it was too late that his dead that why we call you guys.

Det. Jo Lumacay: yeah probably!

Det. Red Durias: very well! But I need you to come with Sgt. Yntig at the precinct to file an
official statement. Oh and sergeant make sure not to let the entire faculty member go home
without their statement.
Sgt. Yntig: Roger that.
The entire faculty member was not allowed to leave the premises for one of them may be
the responsible for the death of Condoriano.
Det. Red Durias: Jo what do you think happened here?
Det. Jo Lumacay: well I dont know!
Chief Jake Cortex: detectives! Head over to the M.Es office, get someone signed of the
cause of death of the victim ASAP.
DETECTIVES: yes sir!
Det. Red Durias: lets Jo!
Det. Jo Lumacay: ok but should we take a break? Its 3:30pm.
Det. Red Durias: ok, let grab a bite!

Det. Jo Lumacay: got it!

Det. Jo Lumacay: Red! I talk to the chief.

Det. Red Durias: see you tomorrow Jo!


Det. Jo Lumacay: yeah.
.There are things for all of us that even all the time in the world wouldn't be able to
erase,
Det. Red Durias: good morning sergeant!
Sgt. Yntig: morning you two!
Det. Jo Lumacay: Did the autopsy result released?
Sgt. Yntig: yeah, came out this morning. And hey I pull out the victims medical history and
guess what.
Det. Jo Lumacay: he had a heart problem.
Sgt. Yntig: yes. The guy has a heart problem since birth.
Det. Red Durias: no wonder he didnt join the PNP?
Sgt. Yntig: we better talk to the doc, in order for him to elaborate it even further.
Det. Red Durias: lead the way Sergeant.
Det. Jo Lumacay: hey you should apply for a detective.
Sgt. Yntig: you think I will qualify?
Det. Jo Lumacay: why not, try it and I will help in the best I can.

Its not that we want to keep things from others. Usually, were keeping them from
ourselves. What we trying to hide about ourselves in life is reveled in death, our fears, our
insecurity, but most of all; our secrets.

Doc. Noey Siarot: meaning he had a rapid blood flow in his vain that trigger his heart attack,
you see, in order to have an erection, your body will have to supply blood into the penis
during sexual stimulation.

M.E assistant: hey doc, the detectives are here, they called two times to ask for the cause of
death of the victim.

Doc. Noey Siarot: judging from the nature of how the body was found, the victim in on his
office eating lunch, if you are going to take a sexual stimulant supplement, he should be at in
room, motel, or a location appropriate in engaging sexual intercourse with someone.

Doc. Noey Siarot: Hello detectives, you see over the years, you could say that Ive become
a student of death. Not out of some macabre obsession, but purely for research.

Det. Jo Lumacay: so you saying that someone make the victim took that supplement?

Sgt. Yntig: oh come on doc, spare us the logic!


Doc. Noey Siarot: very well then.
Det. Red Durias: do you have the cause of death yet?
Doc. Noey Siarot: just about to begin, and your very welcome to join us.
M.E assistant: could I get you guys a cup of coffee?
Det. Jo Lumacay: no, thank you, just need to get the result. Can we please move on?
Doc. Noey Siarot: well, well if this man had live any longer, he most certainly would have
died of a heart attack.

Doc. Noey Siarot: yes, but we need the toxicology report to put my theory into reality.
Det. Red Durias: very well then.
Det. Red Durias: this could be more effective if we knew exactly what to look for.
Sgt. Yntig: the M.E said the victim also been poisoned but the cause of death is heart
attack, the unnatural one.
Det. Red Durias: with that kind of directive, should have something in no time.
You can learn a lot from a body. How a life was lived. What was their pain. Suffering. Life
experiences. Even if they were loved. But what a body cant tell you is why and for those left
behind that seems to be the only question that matters.

Det. Red Durias: so youre saying he didnt die from a heart attack?
Doc. Noey Siarot: no, I mean yes, but look at this. Foaming on the lungs, pulmonary edema,
I believe this man was poisoned.
Sgt. Yntig: wait, what? That, thats your official diagnosis?
Doc. Noey Siarot: yes and no. its my assumption but I need the toxicology report to
confirm. It could take up to three weeks.
Doc. Noey Siarot: but I got a pretty good track of record if youd like to get started on your
investigation.

Sgt. Yntig: sorry guys but this could take days, not to mention even weeks. Why dont you
two ladies go home! Ill call you if I get anything.
Det. Jo Lumacay: nah, Ill be fine.
Det. Red Durias: Ill stick around.
Sgt. Yntig: hey red, havent you notice?
Det. Red Durias: notice what?

M.E assistant: its crazy actually. Sometimes he doesnt need to open them up to tell how
they die. Its like they speak to him, its kind of awesome, and kind of creepy.

Sgt. Yntig: I never seen Jo laughs, not once ever since he join the force.

Det. Jo Lumacay: do you realize the gravity of what youre saying?

Det. Red Durias: yeah, come to think of it, weve been partners for like 4 years now and Ive
never seen him laugh. Only Ive seen him smile a little but way too serious.

Doc. Noey Siarot: i realize that you have a murder. The victim had a history of heart problem
and yet, look at gentile organ, as you can see the victim had a erection the moment he died.
Judging from this the victim suffer from oorhagia at the same time, poisoned.
Sgt. Yntig: meaning?

Det. Jo Lumacay: come on guys.


Sgt. Yntig: You don't have a sense of humor.

Det. Jo Lumacay: I do... I have a wonderful sense of humor. If you say something funny, I'll
laugh."
Sgt. Yntig: All right, I'm going to tell you the best joke in the world. We'll see if you laugh.
Det. Jo Lumacay: Please. I love jokes."
Det. Red Durias: come on sergeant show him what you got. Yow guys listen to this,
sergeant Yntig will try to make Det. Jo Lumacay laugh.

Sgt. Yntig: "So, anyway, she says, "Yes, I'll do it.". So he goes in there, gives it to her."
Det. Jo Lumacay: "He gives her what?"
Sgt. Yntig: "The high, hard one! She loves it. She goes, "You know what? If you do that
again, I'll give you your duck back." It's like getting laid twice for free."
.{Everyone laughing}.

Officer 1: weasel..

Det. Jo Lumacay:
intercourse?."

Officer 2: go sergeant.

Sgt. Yntig: "Yes. Yes."

Chief Jake Cortex: what are you guys doing?

Det. Jo Lumacay: "Very good."

Det. Red Durias: the sergeants trying to make Jo laugh.

Sgt. Yntig: "He used the duck as payment, and now he's being paid back the duck. He goes,
"Oh my God, this is the greatest birthday ever." He does it again. Now he's walking home,
right? Walking..."

Chief Jake Cortex: is that so? How about the case the two of you are assigned to?
Det. Red Durias: ah, were waiting for the toxicology report, the M.E said that the victim
might have been murdered.
Chief Jake Cortex: {put a smirk on his face}

Sgt. Yntig: All right. Little boy, on his 13th birthday. It's time to get laid."
Det. Jo Lumacay: "Already feels inappropriate."
Sgt. Yntig: "So he goes to the lady at the whorehouse, he goes, "Miss, look, I know usually
you want money, but I don't have any money and it's my birthday. Do you think I could have
sex with you for this duck?"
Det. Jo Lumacay: "Was he a farmer?"

"So...I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. The duck is payment for sexual

Det. Jo Lumacay: "So she was satisfied with duck. With a duck as currency..."
Sgt. Yntig: "Yes."
Det. Jo Lumacay: "...to her. Great. Good."
Sgt. Yntig: "So he's walking home, now he can't wait to get home to tell his father. Right?
He's walking down the street with the duck, and all of a sudden, voom, truck comes by and
runs over his duck."
Det. Jo Lumacay: "Kills the duck?"
Sgt. Yntig: "Killed the duck."
Det. Jo Lumacay: "So the duck is now dead."

Sgt. Yntig: "No."

Sgt. Yntig: "The duck is dead. The kid starts crying, truck driver stops, he's all upset, he
didn't mean..."

Det. Jo Lumacay: "That's probably a Health Code violation, bringing a duck into a place of
prostitution."

Det. Jo Lumacay: Of course he's crying! He's a 13-year-old boy who's just had sex, twice,
and he watched his beloved duck die."

{Det. Red Durias: oh this gonna be good}

Sgt. Yntig: "Will you shut up and let me tell the story?"

Sgt. Yntig: "They weren't gonna have sex with the duck."

Det. Jo Lumacay: "So far, I don't know how this is ever going to be funny."

Det. Jo Lumacay: "No, I just mean Health Code violation to have the duck brought into a
facility like that."

Sgt. Yntig: "The guy feels so bad about killing the duck, he gives him two dollars."
Det. Jo Lumacay: "And the kid's happy with the two bucks?"

Sgt. Yntig: "He's ecstatic! He got laid twice, and now he's got two dollars on top of it."
Det. Jo Lumacay: "Seems like a duck would be worth a lot more than two dollars."
Sgt. Yntig: "This was a while back. So he goes home, his dad goes, "What happened?
What happened? Tell me! Tell me!" He goes, "Dad, I got a fuck for the duck, I got a duck for
the fuck, and I got two bucks for a fucked-up duck!""
Det. Jo Lumacay: "So, it's like a limerick."
Sgt. Yntig: "You didn't think that was funny?"
Det. Jo Lumacay: I thought it was entertaining at the end, sure, the way all the words were
put together, but in terms of content? No."
..all laughing together..
Det. Red Durias: ahahahahaha!

Doc. Noey Siarot: a Sildenafil citrate it is chemical compound found in a medication used
to treat erectile dysfunction and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Viagra for example. It acts
by inhibiting cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), an enzyme that promotes
degradation of cGMP, which regulates blood flow in the penis.
Doc. Noey Siarot: thats why we saw the victim had an erection, apparently it is not
advisable to those who have a heart problem coz there heart will not bare the rush blood flow
in our body, that the main reason why our patient suffer a heart attack.
Sgt. Yntig: why would he take a Viagra?
Det. Red Durias: maybe his preparing to get laid.
Sgt. Yntig: at his office?
Det. Jo Lumacay: well guy, well never know.

Sgt. Yntig: his heart is build with stones men, clearly no sense of humor.

Doc. Noey Siarot: exactly, you see, our victim are not preparing for anything, judging from
the nature of how he died, he fell from his desk while eating his lunch, thats not the way you
will take a Viagra.

Det. Jo Lumacay: correction, I do have a wonderful sense of humor. Its just your story is
not kinda funny, it was entertaining dough.

Det. Jo Lumacay: our victim will ever take that kind of medicine I suspect. For he know he
had a heart problem.

Det. Red Durias: now easy sergeant.

Det. Jo Lumacay: your right doc.

Chief Jake Cortex: detectives, the M.E called, looks like the toxicology report just got in

M.E Assistant: we also found a Sildenafil citrate on our victims food along with 4hydroxycoumarin or 4-hydroxythiacoumarin and indandione.

Sgt. Yntig: already? Thought it will take up to 3 weeks to get it chief.


Chief Jake Cortex: looks like they finish it early.
Det. Jo Lumacay: ok chief.
Det. Red Durias: Ill call the M.E office, telling that we are inbound.
Sgt. Yntig: yeah right!

Det. Red Durias: what are those?


Doc. Noey Siarot: it is the main ingredients on rodentecide. A rat poison, mainly use for
killing rats but it can also poison human in a large amount, but you will not died so quickly, the
cause of death of the victim are heart failure or cardiac failure due to present of Sildenafil
citrate, well known as Viagra, and someone intended to kill our victim using this.
Det. Red Durias: and whoever did it, he or she succeeded.

M.Es Office
M.E Assistant: they are here doc.

Det. Jo Lumacay: we need to go back to DMC, find out about that food.

Doc. Noey Siarot: ah, gentlemen glad you could come.

Sgt. Yntig: damn I almost forgot. That we recover 6 sets of fingerprint on the food container,
one is from out victim and the others iare unclear. We dont have any record about the other.

Sgt. Yntig: what do we got doc?

Det. Red Durias: why are you telling us just now? You should have told us earlier.

Doc. Noey Siarot: well, we found a chemical compound called Sildenafil citrate.

Sgt. Yntig: my mistake.

Det. Red Durias: silden what?

Det. Jo Lumacay: we need to go back to DMC, find out about that food also the fingerprint.

Det. Red Durias: yeah right, everyone who has their print on that food container is a suspect.

Det. Jo Lumacay: yes I did.

youve done, we may be able to talk to the judge to lessen your sentence.
Jecky Cortes: that man deserves to die.
Det. Jo Lumacay: why?

years value our privacy. Weve made our mistakes and survived them. Its not that we want to
keep these secrets from others. Usually, were keeping them from ourselves.
Chief Jake Cortex: good job detectives.
Det. Red Durias: thank you sir.
Chief Jake Cortex: keep it up.
Det. Jo Lumacay: we sill sir.
Det. Red Durias: so what you do you think Jo?
Det. Jo Lumacay: What kills you is not what causes your heart to stop beating; its what
prevents you from living.
Det. Red Durias: A reminder: We are all charged with 2 things: Living with our mistakes,
and endeavoring to learn from them, right serge?

Jecky Cortes: it was 5 months ago when he accidentally discover, and filming me having an
affair with one of my student, male student.

Sgt. Yntig: For the dead, all is forgotten. But all is not lost because they're remembered by
us. Some we think of fondly, others less so. A few are remembered by many, and some by
only a few.

Det. Jo Lumacay: wait, im sorry, with what?

Det. Red Durias: thats nice, where did you get that?

Jecky Cortes: Im gay, okay?

Sgt. Yntig: Ive been watching forever in Fox TV..

Det. Jo Lumacay: ohh. ;)

Det. Red Durias: oh okay.

Jecky Cortes: then he approaches me and demanding me money monthly, he was


blackmailing me. Then last week, day after he died, he demanded 500,000, of course i dont
have that kind of money even if I do have the money, thats not right, then he threaten me to
put it on the internet and show it to the president of the school, I have enough, so I killed him,
for blackmailing me.

Det. Jo Lumacay: got to go guy, need to get some rest, Im so, so tired right now.

Det. Red Durias: you should have told the police and file a complaint.

It has been said that a man is not dead while his name is still spoken. That we are only truly
gone when weve disappeared from the memories of those who loved us. Meaning, a great
artist never dies as long as his book are read, his painting admired, as long as our songs are
sung we may each of us live forever.

Jecky Cortes: then what? Im still be expose.


Det. Red Durias: well, youll never know, Mr. Cortes, still you are charged with murder.
Jecky Cortes: I know, but I dont regret it.
Det. Red Durias: very well then.
.Perhaps privacy is a thing of the past. In the future, everything about us will be available
with the touch of a button. Whos fallen in love, whos gotten sick, whos having an affair.
Maybe its a good thing, a future without secrets. Of course, those of us with a few more

Det. Red Durias: ok Jo, see you tomorrow.


Sgt. Yntig: yeah see you detective.

..The End..
