The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 62: PLOTTING
Unlike the three police team who took about five minutes to arrive at the scene after the emergency call was put out and this only being because they were already on patrol, the forensics mobile team needed more time to prep themselves and their kits for the job first before they hit the road and since there really wasn’t an emergency life or death situation this time, they weren’t in a hurry to drive here.It took them about fifteen minutes from the precinct that Officers Sully, Lucy and all the other officers belonged to for them to get here and once they arrived, they parked alongside the police cars, close to the crowd of onlookers and only two of the forensics officers going into the cinema, finally making their appearance in front of everyone who had been waiting for them in the rest room.“Before we go on with the testing we should at least get you two patched up first. We don’t want you passing out on us” said the female forensics officer, wearing a blue denim gown, having the
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 63: SWITCHED
Because it was only Jason that needed to be tested, once the test was over it was now okay for all the others to go into his stall to be with him and Officer Wilson used this opportunity to talk to him or more like the boy used this opportunity of privacy between all of them to get something off his chest. “I hope you know what you’re doing Wilson, my brother wouldn’t take it lightly if you end up failing to get me out of this” Jason threatened but… “Listen here you little piece of shit, just because I take requests from your brother and help him out sometimes while in turn he gives me tips so I’ll make bursts and gain recognition in the police force doesn’t mean that you get to talk to me anyway you want! I can still hand you your own ass if you decide to act too smart for your own good in front of me and your brother would understand that it was a necessary lesson that had to be taught to you, got it or do I need to make sure you did?!” Officer Wilson gave his own counter threat, g
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 64: WHAT SAYS THE RESULT
He stuffed them back into the bag, grinning then went outside to give the samples to the male forensics officer there and because it was a black van with the mobile lab being at the back, Officer Wilson had to knock to get the attention of the man inside "Here you go!" He said, passing the bag to the forensics officer the moment he came to the driver seat door window and rolled it down to talk to Officer WilsonThe forensics officer looked confused, this was the bag that he knew the samples would come in because that's what they always use but he wasn't expecting that it would be brought by someone else and not his partner "The female had to close up an open injury so I said I would help her get it to you, so, stop thinking about it too much and get the result of those things done. I'll be waiting" Officer Wilson said after he had seen the skeptical look the man inside the van had and once he finished he waved him farewell and started to go back into the cinema to wait with the othe
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 65: SULLY PUNCHES WILSON
"What's the meaning of this Wilson!? I thought you assured me that you could handle this problem and that I'll come out clear, as is your job. What a serious disappointment for an officer you are and everything might have even been better if you hadn't com—" Jason who had placed his hand on Officer Wilson's shoulder started to scold him and because the other officers were busy, all gathered around Officer Sully to all look at the results while the female forensics officer was preparing herself to leave, none of them noticed the suspicious casualness between Jason and Officer Wilson Under no situation is it normal for a regular person to hold on to an Officer like Jason is now. However, even though the way they were standing next to each other and Jason think I he could speak to Officer Wilson like this might look like casualness to others, in truth that was far from the case because… "Who do you think you're talking to like that you foolish brat!?" With an enraged look in his eyes O
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 66: JASON ARRESTED
Since they had gotten the one they were looking for, even though Todd and Corner had supported Jason in the lie, the fact that they were still kids in the eyes of the officers was what saved them, plus, when Officer Lucy asked them they confessed that Jason threatened them so they were just allowed to be and told to go home"What are you guys going to do with him?" Todd asked Officer Lucy while the watched Jason getting cuffed "Well, because of how serious his offense is and how many there are, first being in possession of an illegal firearm then for being underaged while doing so, coercing you guys to help and then lying to officers and obstructing justice I would say he stands the chance of actually going to prison instead of a detention center since he's a minor" Off over Lucy said"But his birthday is this week and he'll be eighteen, a legal adult by then so will it still be the same?" Corner who was close by asked "In that case I don't know how the judge would rule it, we will
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 67: ANTHONY’S PLAN
A couple of minutes earlier, just after the samples for the gun residue test were taken, the female forensics officer was making sure that everything about them was in order so that handing it over to her partner would be easy, whereas, Officer Wilson and the rest were in Jason's stall, plotting on how they were going to switch the labelsUnbeknownst to everyone else, Anthony already knew what those guys were up to so while on his own, in his stall and seating on the closed lid of the water closet, he tried to come up with his very own strategy that would be enough to outmaneuver them. They had the numbers and trust of the others because of Officer Wilson on their side while he had almost nothing.Everything was stacked against him and even if he opens up about Officer Wilson's plan to switch the labels to everyone then it'll end up being his word, the words of a suspect who one of the samples belong to, and an officer of the law who's automatically trusted by the others. Also, there
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 68: HOW ANTHONY’S POWER WORKS
At his current level, even though he's able to read people's thoughts, it would be hard pressed to term Anthony's ability as TELEPATHY and that's only because of how his power actually works or I should say the limitations of his ability.Unlike telepathy where the bearer can access and serf through the thoughts of the target and as a result fish out whatever information they're looking for almost effortlessly, Anthony's is more complicated and to an extent limited. First of all he sees the thoughts visually with a screen that pops above the target's head, also he can only see surface level thoughts which are all floating around thereHe cannot go straight, surfing into the mind of the target and get the information he's looking for, but since he can see surface level thoughts he trained himself in other areas to make the target bring the exact thought he's looking for come to the focus for him. So, whenever he wants to know something about someone without first having a direct though
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 69: TEN SECONDS
He needed to get the female forensics officer closer to them over there so that they wouldn't have to actually come into the restroom to carry out their own part of the plan. This is because they would be seen by Officer Sully and the other officers that came here with him and even though they were also busy looking out the window and down at the crowd of onlookers, surely they would still notice if someone new walks into the restroom.So, Anthony took the initiative and got closer to her but not getting so much into her personal space as that might break how enthralled she was in their conversation while leading her backwards until she got closer to the door and to Tina and Jerry who were there, waiting for the right moment to strike."You really think this will work?" Jerry who was concerned, hands prepared to gently pull the bag from the female forensics officer's hand asked Tina who was the one Anthony was communicating with using hand gestures."He said that you and her partner b
