They got there but had to observe where the CCTV were located.They tried inspecting the whole area, and luckily the CCTV cameras were found all around.They proceeded to the security office since that would be the best place to watch the camera footage recorded by the CCTV cameras. They were given the permission to enter, and after identifying themselves and elaborating on the reason for coming,they were given the permission to watch it on the screen.Alex and Precilia sat down and started watching it, looking at it from the first CCTV footage and trying hard to identify any strange person who entered the area whether in a car or even a scooter.Checking the videos,they didn't find anything suspicious from them,it was more like a wasted effort trying hard to look for a stain they were sure the killer would have taken care of."

They didn't make an attempt to watch it there,they decided to take it to the station and handle it there, since it was already late.Before leaving,Alex made sure he satisfied his curiosity soul by asking the question that was troubling him. The reply the man gave him even increased the mystery surrounding the case.He learnt that the man Richard who happened to be the former prosecutor General of Raws, was always acting suspicious.

The Serial Killer: A headache for the police CHAPTER ONE: The First Murder
" The Commissioner ordered us to go to Fenard right away as someone sent a letter that there's going to be a murder today." Ken said to James, who's busy flipping through a file concerning a rape case that happened in Raws recently." What!!Who sent the letter to the commissioner?" James asked with concern." I have no idea as regards the person who sent it. We've been told to act fast as the letter sounded like a warning letter." Then let us be on our way. We should not lose the slight opportunity of apprehending the criminal especially since the commissioner is interested in the case." James said,while trying to pick the necessary things needed for the operation. The journey to Fernard was not smooth as expected preventing the vehicle from accelerating as it should be. The road's irregularities slowed them down, frustrating Ken.There was nothing that could be done rather than moving like a snail just like the attitude of the car." If I knew this road has some irregularities as it

" What is wrong with you people?" The police chief roared at them immediately they got to his office." We're sorry sir,we tried our best to handle the situation,"Ken said sadly. They expected that already especially knowing that the police chief was expecting a promotion and won't want anything to stain that. He is someone who is wary of things that could jeopardize his opportunity not to even add the fact that the commissioner was interested in the case." You tried your best and the result you could bring was announcing the death of the victim. You got there hours before the crime was committed which means the killer waited for you people to settle down before striking," the police chief added." You, James what got over you in the first place. You of all people know the effect of this on my promotion. How could you miss that?" He asked." I'm sorry Sir,we actually tried our best but it was unfortunate that we missed it. We will try and apprehend the person as soon as possible," J
The Serial Killer: A headache for the police CHEAP THREE: A Mystery

For weeks,Alex and Ken have been visiting companies and even stores to at least get a hint but they were all claiming they have never heard of the poison before that Alex even concluded that maybe the poison was not from this planet.Even though they have not recorded a new case similar to that but they were to solve this case since it was the order from the commissioner of police that even made it worse. The police commissioner having interest in cases like this was like a ticking bomb ready to explode any moment."Any report on the Ivin poison yet?" James asked, as they sat down at their meeting venue to discuss the case as they have been doing for weeks." There's no news fo
The Serial Killer: A headache for the police CHAPTER FOUR: The Second Murder
A lot of people were at the crime scene,when they got there. The killer made sure the victim was killed in an open place filled with a lot of people.On getting to the victim's dead body,the right arm had been lop off just like it was done for the first victim and the person showed sign of knife wounds at multiple areas of the body before bleeding to death.The nearest police station were already at the scene since they're closer to the place and from the look of things the killer had been able to instill fear in the people with just two victims." Sir, I think it's the same person that did it," Ken said while James simply nodded in affirmation. This killing was starting to bother him and he fear that the worse might happen if they're not careful with the case." Call the forensic unit to come and carry the corpse to do the necessary investigation on it as soon as possible!" James ordered,and left the scene." Now can you see the reason why you need to solve the case as fast as possib
The Serial Killer: A headache for the police CHAPTER FIVE: The Discovery

Investigation has continued and they were optimistic about the results in order to achieve their goal of apprehending the criminal." Sir,we got some information regarding the Ivin poison we were trying to figure out," Ken started immediately they commenced the meeting which include the new members of the crowd who were sent by the police commissioner to assist them in handling the case." Really, that's good news. Now share it with us what you were able to gather.""Were you able to obtain germane information about the poison?" He asked." Not really, but we got some facts about the poison. There's a businessman who for now is the only one selling it. The secon
The Serial Killer: A headache for the police CHAPTER SIX: Another Bombshell
Just as James wished,they were able to obtain something they could use to identify the killer during the investigation. They discovered a collection of glass that they believed belonged to the killer but in order not to jump into conclusion,they sent it to the Forensic unit for critical analysis and identification of the owner. Fortunately for the police,the forensic unit conveyed positive news to them. It didn't belong to the victim,so they concluded that it belongs to the killer. Even though it was not really a lead to the killer but the fact that they found something that belonged to the killer was a joy on it's own that they were progressing. " With the way it's going, there's a possibility that there's going to be another murder soon and there's no lead to that. The only way we can nab the serial killer is the time he's trying to kill someone on the scene with the way I'm looking at it," James started his speech." The first murder was in Fernard,then followed by the one i

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT: Nightmare
The moment exude that of darkness,making a scary impact on the surrounding. Everywhere wore the silent look while scary and frightening sounds dominated the air. Then suddenly a man in black clothes with a matching black boots appeared.With the darkness the area displayed,that helped as it hid his face,he continued walking with a mischievous smile and after reaching where he was heading to,he opened the door......He opened the door and seeing what he loves seeing, entered the room and did as usual......." No........." He screamed jumping from the bed sweating profusely, with his eyes emitting fear and anxiety." What happened?" The other voice asked entering the room,the scream made him jerk up from the bed instantly, knowing where it is coming from.He could not speak but was shaking badly,he opened his drawer and immediately brought out a drug which he consumed with water. It was then he started calming his nerves,but he was still shaking a little." You had a nightmare again" Th

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN: Determined
" Sir, I have missed you," Alex said, hugging James who gave a quick smile, before taking on a straight face back." Don't break my neck," James said jokingly, it's no longer news that Alex is his right hand man because of the circumstances.James took some days off after that incidence, nobody was able to reach him since he deliberately switched off his phone.Alex couldn't even relay the police chief's order, and didn't want to go to his house to give him the opportunity to rest very well. He had not been sleeping just because of the case, while he encouraged them to go home and rest,that was not the case for James.The zest in his eyes was enough for them to know he was fully back,what they've all been waiting for.After he settled down in his office,Alex then went to meet him to pass the order of the police chief who had been requesting his presence in his office for days now.After giving him the details and how the police chief lost the opportunity of being promoted, James prepa

CHAPTER THIRTY SIX: Missed opportunity
"Sir, we can't stay here all day," Alex said to James who sat down glued to the floor." It has happened,we really tried our best," Mark said.James didn't even bulge from where he sat down. He never expected that this was going to happen, when he thought he had everything planned out.The corpse is in front of him waiting for the forensic to come and do their job. It was embarrassing to leave the town, knowing they failed to protect the town even as the killer hinted them beforehand.He made mockery of the entire police by sending it to TV stations, and now that he successfully executed that,they were in trouble.The whole Raws watched that, definitely what he wanted and unfortunately they missed the opportunity to apprehend him.The previous night was still unbelievable........The loud cry made them all rushed inside leaving two of them to watch the killer, forgetting the gravity of that, but the loud cry was persistent.They went inside and got the shock they were not expecting, c

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE: Almost
The killer entered the house in haste, considering what he encountered outside. He saw the whole family all together in a room, holding their hands together in fear. He heard their silent sobbing, and easily tracked where it was coming from. They knew something was not right when they heard the gunshot in their vicinity, and it dawned on them,that their house was where the killer was planning on visiting.The killer moved closer and dragged the man of the house Richard away from them. He's the person needed and not the whole family as the family thought." Please don't hurt our father," one of the children pleaded with tears." Your father also did more than that in the past," he said, and brought out his knife. There was limited time left to escape, but he was determined to do as prepared and also ridicule the police who he believes will be in trouble,if they fail to protect the person he is trying to kill, considering the person's status in Raws.He raised his knife up to pass his

CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR: Trap
" Ohhh... I should have thought of that earlier,he won't have planned to shoot himself in the leg," James commented." What are we going to do Sir?" Ken asked." If we can't track his address,then we should set a trap for him," James said." What kind of trap are we going to set that he will fall into?" Ken asked,they all think highly of the killer." Who is familiar with Vensi amongst you?" James asked." I'm familiar with the town Vensi," Angelina replied." Good,how many route is there to Vensi?" He asked her." Two routes can take us to Vensi Sir," she replied." We are all aware that the killer is planning another strike this night,that means all the time we have now is valuable."" Alex send a message to all the TV stations,that they all should promote the statement that " The police is not ready to believe such lie and won't fall for it," !!" James instructed." Do you mean the killer is not going to strike but a ploy?" Alex asked." Don't ask me questions, just do as I say!!"

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE: Tension
" To what do I owe this visit?" Anthony asked smiling sheepishly.James didn't give a response, but sat down as if he didn't hear the taunting remark. He decided to interrogate him for the last time before he is transferred and charged to court.This he made sure the police chief was not aware, since he might want to witness the interrogation.That day,if not that he was able to say a convincing statement, probably he would have been caught by the police chief who insisted that the face cap on his head was very familiar.It was a mistake on his side, as he didn't remove the face cap after using it to play a trick on the police chief at the restaurant. It was funny though how the police chief forgot easily where he saw the cap, but that was an advantage he utilised judiciously.He told the police chief that there are numerous face cap with the exact design and the one on his head was one of them. That way,he avoided the questioning eyes of the police chief who then dismissed him." I

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO: Confused
They entered the room chosen, and sat down with the bottle of wine placed on the table. That was useless to them since they didn't come there for that." Sir, how are we going to confirm whether the police chief is in the next room and plant the device there,when they will be leaving soon?" Alex asked,that sounded impossible and risky to achieve." We will just have to try out luck. The room the woman made use of" they" for will be the room we need to confirm if the police chief is in before planning the next thing. Do you have a face cap with you?" James asked, while Alex nodded oblivious of the usage." I will use this to protect my face from being exposed, after which I will barge into the room staggering like a drunkard. After confirming, I will quickly leave before they stand to check but after which I will have pinned the recording device," James analysed, with Alex stunned beyond words.Just as planned, James put on the face cap and proceeded towards the police chief's room. He
