“FOUND anything?” Inspector Isaac asked the team, to which he was responded with a shake of their heads. The inspector looked at the deceased body of the former chief-of-police placed inside the car.The car with a dead body was found under the crossing highway bridge that is surrounded by tall corn plant. An uncommon, uncemented and secluded area with a river not afar from the coast. While the eerie and silence of this place causes the absence of the surveillance camera around here.Isaac’s eyes intently examined the stabbed area of the deceased, which now happened to be one of the most brutal crimes that he had encountered for ten years in this field. “What a psychopath…” he murmured at the sight of the head barely attached to the neck upon hanging on one side. His head slowly shook. He got up on his feet and continued searching the place to look for leads.Surprisingly, though, his search led him to nowhere as nothing unusual can be observed in this area. He only found a few belong

“WHAT DO you mean?” his voice lowered, and the woman had his entire attention with the words she had said.Another crime in this area, huh? He thought.“Someone… A man in a suit… He stabbed the driver of that white car…” the woman replied trembling out of fear, unable to speak straight. Her eyes were unstable, while her hands were clasped together. She is still trying to recover from the shock.Illinois frowned upon hearing her. He leaned forward and spoke. “A man in a suit?” he repeated with a hint of skepticism.“Y-Yes!”Illinois earnestly closed his eyes for a moment. “Did that man wear an eye mask?” Illinois asked, but the woman just slowly shook her head.“I… I didn’t see his face…” trembling, she answered.“Where is that car, then?”The woman in a bob-cut hair turned around and had her index finger pointed to another dark alley which is before the lightened passageway next to this dark alley where they are currently in. It is almost impossible to see that place as the darkness c

AN UNPRECEDENTED circumstance arose, ending up the two remaining cops to leave the station and go to the place said by a witness which is apparently near to the bank where Illinois’ card was used. Kyle left the monitor open and went together with Kean.While the latter was pressing hard the engine, Kyle is making a call for the inspector to bring the news. “Alright, we’re going to head there right away.” The inspector replied hurriedly.It was at their advantage to get there easily, however, since they didn’t mean to go there firsthand, they haven’t prepared a tool like flashlight to illuminate the crime scene. The scene is way too dark and empty without the street lights.“Crap.” Inspector Isaac uttered as he was dawned by the tool at the station. The bump light of the car lit the white car before them. They immediately went out while wearing latex gloves, and intentionally left the bump light on.Just a meter away beside the white car, an old bulky man was sight shivering in cold wi

IT DIDN’T take long for Illinois to recover from the surprise, as he abruptly jumped forward to catch that woman. But her reflexes were astounding as she avoided the hand and then sprinted away from him.“STOP RIGHT THERE!” he shouted between his breath and had his long brawny legs chase after her. His tone up voice caught the attention of some, turning their heads to him as he ran toward that woman. Fortunately, he’s covered with all black clothes including his face, none of those people can recognize him in public.The woman in a bob-cut hair, wearing a baggy jeans and turtle neck, casted a glance behind her. But her eyes widened in astonishment as she saw Illinois just a few meters away from her.“Right, he’s a detective—” she groaned between her pants as she seemingly was out of breath. But she didn’t stop there and turned to one alleyway in hopes to find somewhere she can hide.As the clouds moved across the sun, the passage has become low in contrast and the surroundings became
