The man carefully slipped his hand inside the victim's pockets to check for any helpful content. The pockets were almost empty.

"Did you checked his pockets?", asked the man.

"Not yet. I have not touched anything and informed the authorities about it", replied the policeman.








While checking the contents, he found a card. It was a driver license.

"Well, its not a robbery then either. Please do not ask me 'how' again!", added the man.

The policeman gave him a blank stare.

"Uhhh, will robber leave an identification card of the victim on the crime scene and make the work for police easy?", sighed the man, "Besides, the card would have been in his wallet but its still in the pocket. This means that he wasn't carrying any wallet or cell phone during this outing."








"His name is John Anderson. The contact number is also given and the residence is not far from here", he pulled out the card and read the fields.








He called up the residence number printed on the license. A woman picked up the phone. "Good afternoon madam! May I talk to Mr. Anderson?", he asked.

"Mr. Anderson is not at home at the moment. I'll give him your message once he returns", she replied.

"Is this Mrs. Anderson?", he asked.

"Yes", the lady replied, "this is Mrs. Anderson speaking."

"Oh, where is he gone to?", he inquired.

Lady responded, "I just returned home from market. He had already left when I came back so I have no idea."

"Thank you Mrs. Anderson! Have a nice day!", the man hung up the phone.

He ordered the policeman, "Call the same residence number again and inform Mrs. Anderson about her husband's death."

"What? Why didn't you tell her in the first call?", policeman asked astonishingly.

The man commanded again, "Do it! Also, tell her to come and confirm."

The policeman called her again and broke the sad news of her loss to her.

''No way!'', cried Mrs. Anderson.

''Please come and confirm'', requested the policeman.

She wept and hung up.

"What did she say?", the man asked.

"She is coming", answered the policeman, "Should not take her long as her home is nearby."

"What else did she say?", the man asked again.

The policeman answered again, "Nothing else."







After 10 minutes, Mrs. Anderson came. She saw the body and immediately recognized it. "Yes this is my husband", she cried.
