After that, Officer Frank starts shifting their subject slowly and gradually, until he begins to talk about Victor. It’s just his way to not attract some suspicion from Judy about his real motive in questioning her.

  

At the beginning, Judy only follows him. But then, she starts getting the impression that this officer is more concerned about Victor, more than about Diego’s death.

  

But Judy tries to play along, and answers their questions as much as she knows without any bad assumptions about their motives.

  

“Well, the first time I met Victor was when he visited the pizza shop only as a customer. But then, after a few visits, he suddenly engaged me in conversation, asking about a part-time job in Mr. Benigno’s pizza shop,” explains Judy.

  

Officer Frank changes his sitting position, as he feels that he has managed to lure Judy into that topic swiftly. &

    Before the dark, Victor and Judeo reach their hideout. Judeo gets out of the car first, and heads directly to a spot under one unused ladder where there is one tiny hidden camera. He pushes a button and starts talking. “Junior, We arrive. Is Mike there?” he asks. [No, He has been out since this morning, and hasn’t coming back] Knowing that Judeo must have already asked Junior to turn off all the security systems to get into their hideout, Victor just gets upstairs ahead of him. He seems a bit hasty to meet Mike. Judeo catches up to him and informs that Mike is not there at the moment. “Where is he?” he asks. “He is still trying to investigate the people who burned your house. And Douglas is back to stalking that pharmacy guy. There’s only Vincenzo watching for that Junkie now.” “Stop

    But they are a bit unsure whether that fat dude with his cute chubby face was lying. That man just really looks like an ignorant friendly kid when talking to them. However, from the history chat they had, Shirley told Diego to meet her in her office. And Diego received that message two days before he was found dead, which means Shirley should be still in the town at that time. This is how they put Shirley as the prime suspect in this case. Because there is a chance that Diego met her a day before he was found dead. Joshua takes his partner away for a while, intending to discuss something away from that baby face security guard. “What do you think?” he asks. “Whether he just knew nothing and answered something he didn’t know, or he deliberately gave us false testimony. Why don’t we just get inside first?” Aaron suggests. But Joshua looks so reluctant to enter that nightclub. He even begins to hate Frank who ordered him and Aaron to visit Limbo’s Paradise. “Why don't we come back

    Remi is just silent, seeming to hide something. He glances at Mike, looking so suspicious and curious about Mike’s identity who has noticed his oddity for being too scared. “Or perhaps, I shouldn’t take you back to your home,” Mike continues. “Huh? Why?” But Remi is startled again, noticing that Mike is still pointing his gun as he keeps driving the car. “Ah, um, what do you want from me?” he asks. “It’s not about what I want from you. It’s about who you are trying to avoid? Since you left that nightclub, you’ve been looking like someone being haunted by a ghost,” replies Mike. Remi looks confused. But he begins to suspect that Mike might have been following him so far, and has already realized his worry and the reason behind it. He does really look like someone who becomes a target by some people at the moment. It’s not clear who he is trying to avoid. But it’s clear that it’s already inside his head since he left Limbo’s Paradise “I can’t believe there’s a scaredy-cat like yo

    But Judy is not giving him an immediate answer. He sees Judy glances for a while behind him, seeming to make sure that there’s no one else there.“Do you know what happened to Diego?” asks Judy.“I just found out recently, only after I paid a visit to his house. Weirdly, no one in the club talks about him at all, despite the fact that Diego had been working there for more than three years. Whether they don’t know or they just don’t care,” replies Remi.“I’m not asking you whether you know Diego has died or not. I’m here to ask you about how he died? Why, and who killed him?” asks Judy with a cold tone.Remi’s facial expression changes slightly. This is the first time she finds Judy talking in that manner. A coward like him even feels a bit intimidated by her. Rather than having a friendly guest, he feels l

    Mike takes his leave, and Chappy just stands there with a dumb face. He still doesn’t understand why that matters is so serious, that he has to be dead simply because he knows about it. He turns his face to Vincenzo, but Vincenzo just stares down at him coldly. Right before Mike reaches the exit door, he suddenly stops and then turns back. He seems like he almost missed something important from Chappy’s story. “Did you mention your sister before?” he asks. “Wut?” mumbles Chappy. He doesn’t give Mike an immediate answer. He is afraid that Mike would also target his sister, only because his sister recognized Charles William. “Who is this sister of yours?” Mike asks again by pointing the gun back at Chappy. “No! You can kill me. But I will never tell you about her,” replies Chappy composedly. Mike cocks the gun, a

But he got the chance to hear what Officer Frank told Judy at the door before they left that apartment.Both of those officers never paid much attention to that one camera near the door of Judy’s apartment room, at the corner of the corridor. They just thought that the camera was installed by the apartment security, which should be so normal.They just never expected that it was installed by these watchers, and that it also captured the surroundings sounds too. And Mike had heard what Officer Frank told Judy this afternoon.In fact, that’s why Mike acted fast, making his m

Let me take you home,” replies Victor before he grabs Judy’s hand.But Judy pulls her hand immediately. Victor turns back, and seems confused to find Judy looking so alert to him.“I’m not a kid.

But he still looks so composed and solemn.They have been so close for five years, and this is the very first time Judy talks about respecting her space to him

    “So, we are going to live here now?” asks Judy, just as she gets out of the car right in front of a humble two-story house. “All of us? Together?” Victor averts his attention to Judy, and immediately, Judy changes her facial expression to her childish one. “Ah, never mind! Come Emma, we need to secure the best room for us.” Emma is still looking so unsure whether to stay living together with them. But Judy insists on taking her. Victor just lets Chappy take all his stuff inside. He just leaves, heading to one shop right next to his new house. There are several people doing some renovation for that shop. And the first thing that catches his interest is the two guys who are now installing a banner with colorful lamps, mentioning La Marca. “So you're really going to revive La Marca, huh?” Victor turns behind, and sees Jimmy coming to him. Yes, this one shop is exactly the same spot where La Marca started, and it is right across the street, in front of Jimmy’s office. “Are you inte

    So, Victor stays there for a while, waiting for Lucas to come. Meanwhile, Fazio and Gambino are looking confused by him. “So, you have footage of all his vaccine projects all this time, yet you let him scheme all these bad things on you?” asks Fazio. Victor turns his face to Vincenzo with a stupid look for a moment before giving a reply. “Um, I don’t clearly remember about this footage before. After listening to that old man’s story, only then did I think about it.” “Well, he was just a naive kid that time. He didn’t have the heart to do bad things on others,” says Vincenzo. “Heey!” Victor voices his objection. “No, it’s not about naivety,” Chappy interferes. “I know my bro is a good man. You see, I once tried to rob him, yet he treated me like a brother now.” Gambino just shakes his head with a silly face. “It’s good you want to do something good for others. But you need to understand, you can’t be too good to anyone. Especially in this kind of thing.” “I know!” replies Victor

    On the other hand, the one who hired Lt. Schneider to kill Victor as a fugitive is now having a restless night. Not because he is worried, but simply because he is confused, who killed that fat cop.He is none other than Elijah Miller, the lawyer that Lucas hires, who also has a grudge on Victor.“Could it be that man? No way!”He thinks this might be Lucas’ doing. But he never told Lucas who the police he hired for that scheme. Can’t get enough of his thoughts, he just leaves his house and visits Lucas in the middle of the night.And to add more salt to his bitterness, he finds Lucas seeming to have a peaceful night. That man opens the door for him with sleepy eyes.“What? Can’t you just come later in the morning?”“Damn! Was it really you?” asks Elijah.“What is this?” asks Lucas with a confused face.Elijah pushes the door, and then checks on the situation inside just to make sure there’s no one else beside them. He then asks Lucas to follow him to his car.“Haven't you heard the n

    Jimmy immediately whispers to Victor that they don’t need to do anything to defend Emma’s testimonies. Because Emma already finishes her role in clarifying about his memory loss. “Don’t mind them. They are just trying to create a ruckus. It’s clear they have nothing to use against us.” Meanwhile, the judge also tells Elijah to stop bringing that issue, because he sees almost no correlation between that matter with the current case. “Maybe she does this to redeem her past mistake, or maybe not,” says the judge. “Whatever her intention is, all you need to do is to focus on the evidence she brings, and the credibility in her story. Is there anything else you want to ask the witness?” “No, Your Honor!” replies Elijah. Soon after this, the judge adjourned the trial for a while. He asks both Jimmy and Elijah to come to his office. The judge delivers his sermons, advising Jimmy and Elijah not to send the trial into obscurity in order to avoid unnecessary public attention. But sadly, th

    After all, he has made an agreement with Frank for this one, and he doesn’t want to screw Frank’s scenario in attacking Adam. Besides that, Jimmy himself already prepared his own arguments to protect Victor from all the accusations.When it is time for him to bring his witness, he asks Vincenzo first, as someone who was hired as Victor’s bodyguard and accompanied Victor to Canada.“I believe it was the same day they found Atkinson’s body. My boss was invited to attend the funeral of his ex-wife. It was shocking news for him. So, without thinking much about that message, we headed to Canada the same day.”“And there was this cab driver, welcoming us by telling us he was sent by the Mayor of the Town of the Blue Mountains, the father of my boss’ ex-wife.”He tells everything about how this mischievous cab driver left them in the nowhere, and how some people came to kill Victor. But of course, Vincenzo didn’t tell the part when he killed them all by himself.“We got separated, so I told

    The next two days, Emma receives a package from her sister in Canada. It’s the document about Victor’s medical condition including the CT scan report of his head. At the same time, Mandy also receives a package from Eusebio, containing Victor’s phone that is already busted after he fell to the river. But of course, Jimmy is confident he can still fix the phone, and secures the odd message that Victor received from Emma’s phone number. “How did you get this?” asks Jimmy. “Someone sent it to me from Canada,” replies Mandy. “Who? He must know that I might need this to defend Victor’s case. Who sent it to you?” Before this, Jimmy already learned about some people talking about Eusebio coming back to Indiana. In the end, he only learned that the one being talked about was actually Victor. “Mandy! Are you hiding something from me? Did Eusebio meet with Victor in Canada?” Mandy nods twice with an uninterested face. “He was the one who helped him. He already called me right when he foun

    Even Frank isn’t getting a peaceful night either. There are so many things that don't click with his beautiful mind. He has learned quite far about the background behind that serial murder case. He knows that Victor has something to do with this, and has already had a theory that this led to the death of Atkinson. “So, Adam got Victor and this Johann guy at the same time. Does that mean all your theories are true?” asks Morgan. Frank doesn’t answer him. He just sits there with a flat face, while busy rubbing his ring finger which no longer has any ring on it. His mind keeps working on the narration to conclude all the theory and deduction that he has made so far. “But this man, Cooper! He said he came to Lucas to warn him about this serial killer,” he says. “But Lucas said that it was Cooper who tried to kill him in the toilet,” argues David. “That’s the problem,” Frank refutes. “We have an eyewitness that this man, Cooper, had a fight with someone wearing Arabian outfits in the

    He hits Victor again, while he is still pinned down on the ground. That hit only looks like a joking tap, as if he is agitating Victor to release his rage. And indeed, it’s effective to make Victor even more infuriated and mad. But then, just as Victor raises his left hand intending to continue his assault, someone just shoots him with a gun. Fortunately, it only hit his left shoulder from behind. But because of this shot, he is no longer in a mount position pinning Johann down. Weirdly, that shot only makes Johann infuriated. He gets up, and shows how annoyed he is with the one man who just shot Victor. “Yoou!!!” He grumbles with a low voice, before shouting out his anger. “You’ve screwed everything! That’s his moment, how dare you screw it!!!” Still within his madness, Johann recklessly rushes toward that man who is still holding his gun. And then… “Bang! Bang!!” Two shots in the chest put Johann down. That man approaches Victor who is now trying to get back up by holding his

    Weirdly, for whatever reason, Johann didn’t kill Lucas. Cooper finds Lucas still breathing albeit no longer conscious. He immediately takes out a phone, and informs Victor and Vincenzo about that situation. However, as he just intends to leave that restroom, one security guard and two cops appear. Yes, there are already several cops around this building, because Lucas had shared to the police about the possibility of Victor would attack him. There are also Officer Frank and a few of his team among them in the outside. As those two cops notice Lucas’s condition in the restroom, they immediately put Cooper down on the floor. They then cuff Cooper’s hand behind his back. Of course, Cooper tries to break free, looking so impatient to not let his target away. “You stupid! You got the wrong person. He is out there, a man with an Arabian outfit!” “Silence! Whatever you want to say, you can explain it later in the office. You have the right to call an attorney. If you are unable to do so,
