De La Hoya
Valt scanned through the small piece of paper. Shu had gone missing today and Free had broke out of the cell. This paper was the only thing they found out from the crime scene.
There were names in it. Names of people Free killed to be direct. Valt recognised all of them to be shown in the news captioned to be killed by the serial killer. Valt and Rantaro looked at the first set of names. Rantaro had told Valt that the criminal's name was Free, nothing else, intriguing the said policeman.
"Here the are. Rantaro said and wrote down the first names of the first four victims.
Deon
Esther
Lila
Aria
"D.E.L.A." Valt read the first letters, then the second, then the third and fourth. He realised none of them made any sense, so he wrote down 'DELA' on another paper. He he was about to move to the second bunch of names when he remembered the orphan boy without the last name. So that means, Valt thought, The last names would have a clue too. He wrote down the last names on the same paper, separating the first names and the last names with a line on the middle of the paper.
Hills
Odin
Yellow
Adams
"HOYA..?" The name ringed a bell for Valt, but he couldn't figure out what. But he knew that was the code, so he wrote 'HOYA' in the same paper he wrote 'DELA'. He went to the next bunch of first names.
Tim
Henry
Evan
Oli
Daniel
Orange
Ronnie
Ella
Valt's eyes widened reading the first letters, "T-T-Theodore..?" He looked at Rantaro, who looked away. Rantaro and Wakiya were the only ones in the police station who knew about the De La Hoyas apart from Theodore, and the former head had supressed the two from telling anyone about the truth of them. And that's why, Valt didn't know about it. He arranged the last names too.
Goose
Lavender
All
Simpson
Shawn
Dimple
Imp
Elizabeth
"Glass die." Valt read, "So that means...Theodore Glass die..?" He proceeded on the next first names.
Peter
Alma
Rad
Eva
Noel
Tessa
Seth
And there was that orphan. Seth. Valt read the code, Parents. What did that mean? He went for the last names.
Koi
Ivan
Lobster
Lin
Edwards
Don
Killed, the word brought chills to Valt's spine. He hated it with all his heart, as his own favourite uncle was killed by Free. Peter Koi. He can't believe he caught the criminal who killed his favourite blood relative, but also escaped from his hands. He proceeded with the next first names.
Savio
Uriel
Ila
Clara
Ivan
Demi
Eve
Valt chocked on his morning coffee, "SUICIDE!?"
Rantaro jumped due to the sudden outburst, "Valt..?"
Valt calmed himself and went for the last names.
Ben
Eth
Canada
Autumn
Unique
Sen
Ellie
"Because..." Valt muttered. He wrote it down with all of the other codes and continued searching in the next set of first names, which he noticed to have three people without last names.
Ten
Ollie
Okie
Kyle
Tom
Hat
Eagle
Mary
Fauna
Once
Ria
"Took...Them...For..? Huh?" Valt questioned. Rantaro pursed his lips and looked away. Valt didn't fail to notice it, but didn't say anything.
Neo
Oberon
Raul
Els
Astronaut
Seal
Oni
Neptune
"No reason." Valt read. Rantaro gulped again as Wakiya entered and looked at the code, "Head..?"
Valt turned to look at him, "Huh?"
Wakiya cleared his throat, "There was a murder, and the mark next to the body confirms it was by Free." He said solemnly. Valt asked for the victim's name and Wakiya said they weren't sure.
"There were a lot of stabs and cuts on the person's body and face. The only thing we discovered that it was a man twice your own age."
Valt nodded and went back to the code. The sooner they crack this, the better.
Isa
Wendy
Icy
Lia
Levi
Another orphaned boy. But Valt managed to get the code correctly, "I will." He confirmed. He went through the last names.
Kaylie
Igloo
Liz
Luna
Theodore Glass
Valt's eyes widened to bloodshot as he realised the cunning killer's plan. Valt never beat him, he got caught on purpose to finish his code. Valt read the code they got.
"Theodore Glass Die. Parents killed. Suicide because took them for no reason. I will kill Theodore Glass."
Valt's heart sank and he looked at Rantaro. Something told him that he was missing something. Suddenly he gasped and went through the drawers looking for a certain file. Finally he found it, and his stomach dropped with an ugly thud.
Jeremy De La Hoya
Age: 31
Relationship(s): Siesta De La Hoya (Wife)
Free De La Hoya (Son)
Crime: Murder of Spanish Trillionaire James Santiago, his wife and twin daughters.
Execution date: November 13th 2012
(Later found out as not guilty)
"The police...That's what he hates." Valt muttered, then something came to him.
'DELA' + 'HOYA' = De La Hoya.
()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()
Wakiya stormed towards the head officer's room in hurry. He just got the worst news any police could get.
"VALT!" He yelled storming in the room. Valt and Rantaro gave a start as both of them looked at the blonde, "W-Wakiya..?"
Valt looked already shaken, but this wasn't the time to stare at his condition, "Valt, we found out who was killed and also a note written by Free on the victim's fist." Valt sat straighter on his seat, "Who was it?"
Wakiya took a deep breath, "I-It was...It was Norman Tarver."
Valt's eyes turned into the size of saucers. Norman was one of the finest policemen in the squad. Valt didn't get time to recover from the shock as a piece of paper was shoved on his face by Wakiya.
'I killed him, I'll never kill my albino beauty b4ecause he's no longer by your side. Just like I killed this one, I'll come for each and every one of you, and you'll be my last dessert to feast on, Aoi Valt.'
Finally! This chapter was a bit short, but I'll live. I've got my exams tomorrow and I still haven't got my book. And to make matters worse, I'm having stomach issues today. I'm thinking of studying trough the laptop tomorrow as my sister doesn't have her online class and I have another good friend (Not the one who doesn't give a shit 'bout me) who send me the notes of the exam tomorrow so that I can study. I hope things will work out for this exam, it is one if my hardest subjects and even if I have studied it once, I'm not so sure I'll do well without revising.
Stay safe and happy, and don't let other's control your life.
Fin.
