The Illicitor's Code #1

126: Scandal and The Results

When Dim-Dim woke up late the next day, he found over 100 notifications on his phone. Instinctively, he opened Damian's message first.

Damian: OH MY GOSH, I watched the news. Are you okay, Dim-Dim? That girl's ex is really insane.

Then Dim-Dim realized there was an unnatural noise outside. Rising from bed, he found many reporters in the yard.

Dim-Dim quickly replied to Damian's message: I'm okay. Just a few scratches. Don't worry about me. I'll be back in Safe City this afternoon.

He then read Velicia's messages, who had called him twenty times that morning.

Velicia: Dim-Dim, please answer my calls.

Velicia: There's a mission this morning. I canceled it and asked Mouse to swap missions.

Velicia: Come on! You have to pick up my call. I see a lot of blood stains at the crime scene being broadcasted on TV!

How could last night's events make it to the news? Was it that big of a commotion?

Then he opened his laptop, waiting for it to load today's news page, while reading Justin's message.
