Liz was working at her office, when the phone rang.
“Sheriff Forbes” she said short when she answered.
“Sheriff Forbes, hi” Stefan replied. “I was wondering how it’s going with the murder on Gabe Lindy”
“I’m sorry, Stefan. I can’t give away such information” Liz answered.
“I’m going to take a wild guess and say the corpse is missing” Stefan said amused. A few seconds of complete silence followed. Stefan had asked Katherine to compel the sheriff to forget he knocked her down and took the body.
“What do you know about that?” Liz eventually asked.
“Doesn’t matter” Stefan avoided the question. “But I think I might be able to help you. I think you should take a look inside Rachel Lindy’s house”
“Stefan, if you know something, you have to tell me” Liz said strict.
“I just did” Stefan replied, even more amused. “You’re going to have to trust me on this, Liz. I promise you won’t be disappointed”
Ten minutes later Liz stood in front of Rachel’s house. Since no one answered the door when she rang, she tried the door and successfully opened it.
“Mrs. Lindy?” she called. There was no reply. She walked through the hallway into the kitchen. There was no one.
Sheriff Forbes, having quite some experience in the matter, looked for the basement, switched the light on when she found it and went downstairs.
She found the corpse near the window. She conjured her phone and dialed a number.

“Can I come in? This talks so…weird, you know. And if Veronica sees us…” Stefan said warning.
“I’m not afraid of Veronica” Rachel said in such way it sounded like she meant the opposite.
Katherine was dragging Gabe’s corpse to the backside of Rachel’s house. She couldn’t get inside the house, so she opened the window to the basement and pushed Gabe’s body inside. She held his shoulders and let him down carefully. When she thought it was safe she let go. The corpse fell on the basement floor, mute for a human ear, but as Katherine heard the thump, she figured Rachel would’ve too.
“Damn it” she mouthed. She stood and looked around. Rachel was nowhere to be seen and from what Katherine could hear, she was still listening philosophized to Stefan. If Rachel had heard anything, she sure didn’t suspect anything.
