[h3] Ferd Smith [/h3]

	Ferd was a bit taken aback by the sudden shift in tone as Dirk introduced himself. A cop, of course! It made sense they might be keeping an eye on the place. Ferd was certain that if the case was still open at all that the cops had no idea where to even begin looking for culprits. He squinted at Dirk. Actually now that he thought about it, why on earth was this case still open. Ferd knew that a case like this was doomed to be filed under "unsolved", most police stations closed these sort of cases shortly after opening them. They we're usually considered a waste of time.

	Ferd flinched at the mention of breaking and entering. Please no jail, please no jail. Yes! Haha he was going to let it slide! Ferd inwardly pumped his fists in the air.
He listened to everything Dirk said, peering at the badge when it was produced. Satisfied Ferd extended a hand, "Pleasure to meet you Officer Garther. Apologies for walking in unannounced, and well," Ferd scratched his head in embarrassment, "for the hostile greeting just not." He bobbed his head to the side, pulling one side of his mouth into a thin but apologetic smile, "What with, well you know." Ferd jerked his head at Jeremy's house. "Like I said, we're a tad on edge at the moment."
