chapter 3
THE PORTABLE LAB

Driving down the deserted roads Bob felt exposed. Even though he was driving a vehicle that the us army used he was still scared. As he rounded a corner he passed Moe's auto spares. Moe was stacking tires that had been rolled across the road, he waved at bob as he passed by and Bob waved back. When he rolled into a police station park he was surprised to see all the lights on even though it was 11 O clock at night.

When he walked through the door he was greeted by people carrying papers and dragging criminals up the stairs to the cells. Bob walked down the left corridor, turned right then left again and at the end of the corridor was a door

When he sat down he pulled a large box out of one of the draws on his left.

This was the portable lab. Inside it contained: A microscope, two test tubes and a spoon. Bob didn't know if this would help him or not but it looked pretty professional so he decided to give it a go anyway.

9 hours later and bob couldn't be seen doing any work. He was sleeping in his office chair with his hat over his face because of that early start. Suddenly there was a bang on the door and Beth rushed in." They've found the thief! It's Marty Potter, he's in a warehouse on the west side of town with a green kenworth with the Porsche in the back. They need you now."

"OK I'm on it" Bob said as he pushed past Beth and outside to his truck ready for the chase...
