"Wish I could tell you something kid..." Collin paused, took a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket, took one out, placed it on his mouth, lit it and looked up at the sky as he took a big puff of smoke and blew it out. Collin had a problem with alcohol and tobacco. He was a chain smoker, consuming more than 4 packs a day. His doctor already warned him a lot of times to quit it or get some serious health problems but Collin couldn't find it in himself to stop. He then continued his sentence "... but I don't know much about ice. The cops would bring samples to the lab, see what they could find out. The results would be sent to us by tommorow or so. We already tried getting prints off the ice but it keeps melting faster than we can scan them. Hopefully the samples could tell us something about this maniac.." 

He looked at the ice more thoroughly, letting his thoughts flow in his head. 
"It's a hot and humid day today, a very hot and humid day. A lot of vapor in the air. That's where he must have gotten his source of water. Either that or he uses he's own body's water, which would dehydrate him a lot. In any which case, this guy must be staying somewhere with lots of water." He unconsciously told Simon as he pondered on the idea. He's attention was then caught by Oliver who was dancing in the snow, or so Collin thought. 

"Follow me." Collin told Simon as he approached Oliver. 
"Something wrong?" He asked. Oliver kept pointing at the alleyway he came from. "Spit it out!" Collin yelled in frustration.
