Epic 66Finally, kyrian went to pick Timi up after the incident. He just couldn't hold back his joy, he had missed Timi recklessly.“Welcome home bro, hope you are all sound now?”. Kyrian said sounding a bit excited.Timi stepped out of the airport terminal with a wide grin on his face. "Thanks, Kyrian. I'm feeling better than ever," he replied, giving Kyrian a solid punch on the arm as they made their way to the car. "I've missed you, man. So much has happened since I've been away.

He wiped the bar with a grimy towel, his eyes never leaving the photo. "But he hasn't been here in a while. What do you want with him?"Kyrian flashed his badge.

"Disappeared, huh?"Let's just say that if he disappeared, it's no surprise." The bartender leaned in, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "Heard rumours that he's involved with some pretty dangerous people. Word is, he crossed the wrong guy and had to skip town."Jasmine exchanged a look with Kyrian. "Dangerous people, huh? Like who? What sort of 'wrong guy' are we talking about here?"The bartender shrugged, his expression impassive. "Can't say."All I know is, this place isn't somewhere you want

Epic 70"If they didn't want John alive," Kyrian continued, his pacing quickening, "then it means that whatever he knew was so damaging that they couldn't risk him talking. Maybe they realized that he was getting ready to talk. Or maybe they just didn't trust him anymore."Timi tilted his head, considering this theory. "So you're saying we need to figure out what John knew, but we also need to find out who wanted him dead."Jasmine crossed her arms, her face determined. "Right. "Let's work backwards," Jasmine said, leaning forward in her chair. "We know that John was meeting with someone named Victor. If Victor is connected to this mystery, he must have known what John was planning. Maybe he's the one who decided John had to go."Timi tapped a button on his keyboard, bringing up a screen of data. "If we're right about Victor, then we need to find him. His disappearance could be the key to understanding what happened to John."Kyrian nodded. "And don't forget about the tie knot."The t
