A murder case
On the night of the 25th of March, Mr Green was found dead in his study. His body was discovered at 11 pm by Miss Scarlet. The police were called to the crime scene. According to Inspector Lestrade, Mr Green was shot. Indeed, the gun was spotted in a bush under the window. Unfortunately, no fingerprints were detected on it. The window was smashed and glass shards were scattered all over the carpet. Three suspects were questioned by Sherlock Holmes. They were seen in the house the night of the murder. They all had a motive.

Hi, guys, so, my name is Elizabeth and I'm a customer care manager with eCare, and I've been working for Coke for twelve years now. I'm responsible for the customer care team here in Japan. On a regular day, I join a lot of meetings, I take care of ongoing projects and I'm responsible for some financial analyses. Well, I also help my team with personal development. As for our goals, our consumer is the most important person in the world, and our objective is to give them the best experience possible.
Flat coke? Terrible, and we're going to fix this.
No fizz? We got your back.
Unusual taste? Don't worry! Help is on the way.
[pause]
And we also care a lot for the brand, yeah, we REALLY want to protect it and avoid ANY kind of crisis.
[pause]
Yeah, I believe that's all. Thank you so much.
