PROLOGUE
I looked at the small, 3d portrayal of the city Ambhibianax. The city was built at the edge of a lush forest and is truly a technological metropolis. Hundreds of ethnic restaurants, diners and food carts offer a plethora of culinary choices and those who feel hungry for something else can enjoy musical activities, sightseeing, concerts or one of the many other recreational venues.
But that is not what makes it prone to reporters or politicians but instead it's the murders. The best part of it is that everyone knows who is responsible for these, none other than Mr. Whyte.
When the police can't do anything then why will the locals feel safe?
"K, you gotta see this." I looked back to see zeita, my hacker.
"What is this time, another body or did Whyte do something again?"
"They caught Oliver," she said, showing me the video footage of the police station.
I looked at the footage and scoffed. "He will be out before you know it, he may have fooled everyone but not me and see that girl. I want a background check on her."
"Fooled, what do you mean? And why the girl, maybe she was just at the wrong place at the wrong time."
"Shut up and do as I tell you. I don't pay you to ask questions."
I just glared at her and left the abandoned building. I heard a vibration from my phone indicating I got a text.
I opened my phone and saw that it's just another lead they want me to follow.
I started to follow this lead. On my way, I removed my wig and put on a blonde wig along with the glasses, removed my jacket and threw it in the nearest dumpster.
As soon as I reached the murder site, I started my recorder and started speaking, "There has been another killing on the streets of the Ambhibianax today. At around 1:15 pm a middle-aged man was shot dead presumably by a long-range gun. Experts are still trying to figure out what type of gun was used and by whom. Police say it could be one of the several killers that remain in the city targeting any unlucky victim that they happen to choose"
I saw detective Estrove there, but I knew that I wouldn't get any answers from her, so I went to another officer.
"Officer, what do you think about this situation? Because of these constant killings people no longer feel safe even in their homes."
The officer turned to look at me and said, "This is an ongoing investigation so no comment, as for the other thing the people of Ambhibianax have nothing to fear. We all are working extremely hard. Miss- "
