Section 6 (UNEDITED)

The terrible murder that happened after a long while has again attracted people’s attention. Again, Alvin Jones’ name popped out, but police denied the allegations based on the difference between murder and torture.

Besides, Mrs Zegens, who died, didn’t get along very well with her neighbours; sometimes all she did was interacting with her son and because of her eccentric and capricious personality, her neighbours disliked her. When the children’s ball goes into her garden, she would jump out with angry faces and try to hit them one by one. It seemed true that outsiders were not welcomed by her.

“-We are continuing the investigation. You won’t be able to go home for a while.”

Tim gave a quick account to the pale man. The man came to the police station readily responded to the interrogation but was in a state of panic a little due to severe trauma. He stammered and knew that his mother was not of a very good character, but he broke down in tears, saying that she didn’t deserve this. Tim calmed the man with a little awkwardness and approached Jude, who was leaning on the side of the police station with a sleepy face.

“What do you think?”

“-Yes-? What.”

“Jude, wake up. The case, the case.”

“Oh, yeah, the case. I guess the murderer hated this lady terribly.”

“That’s for sure. How much do you hate someone just to do this?”

“This person must’ve been arguing a lot, or have heard a lot of abusive language from her. It’s not just a few times. We need to find the relationship centred on those circumstances.”

“A verbal argument? Why?”

“Hand in the mouth.”

“What?”- As he frowned slightly at his eyebrows, Jude closed his eyes and shook his head a few times as if he was trying to chase away the sleepiness, pointing to the table where the on-site photos were placed.

“The hand from the upper body was stuck in the mouth of the severed head on the table, and I found out later that there was something like food waste on the cross-section of the cut neck.”

“So?”

“That’s telling her to shut up.”

It was quite perverted. With the gaze of asking “why?” Tim nodded a little dubiously.

It was something that could be thought of quickly, but it wasn’t easy to adapt to these terrible and incomprehensible situations. Did the murderer do this just because wanting to keep the other person’s mouth shut? Feeling uncomfortable, Tim asked while Jude searches his pocket, “Ah-I want some mint candy, mint candy.”

“In the future… will there be another murder?”

“Huh? I don’t know. If he’s a violent person, this could be a trigger to keep killing. If the murderer just hated her, it could have ended this way. But given that he’s done something this cruel at first, I think it’s more likely to happen in the future. Well, we’ve just got to do our investigation quickly and catch the criminal.”

“Oh…”

He wondered if his nerves were delicate. As he watched Jude yawning and peeling the mint candy, Tim asked this small question to himself. Originally, he was always such a carefree guy, but he thought it was amazing to see him maintain his poker face even when such a bizarre murder case happened.

“Let’s get some rest, and start the search again.”

“Yeah. Well, we’re not the only ones working, so… I’m going to sleep, I’m dying.”

“Yes. I’ll wake you up in three hours.”

Next Chap 》 Section 1 (UNEDITED) Psychopath. Most serial killers fall under this category, and most of them carry out bizarre crimes for sexual pleasure or satisfaction. Because they cannot empathize with other people’s feelings, they inflict terrible pain upon others, but they don't feel any sympathy or compassion for that. They in fact enjoy it and even feel positive emotions in the act itself. What distinguishes them from ordinary criminals is that they have nothing rationally abnormal, and their problems are limited to ethical things. It can also be considered as a ‘morally-disabled-person’, and psychopath does not equate to low intelligence, rather, they have average or sub-intelligence. In reality, a serial killer with great intelligence, such as Hannibal Lecter, rarely exists. Typical psychopaths include Jack the Ripper of England and Ted Bundy of the United States, who liked to describe their crimes in detail with a sparse moral sense. But one thi

Prev Chap Next Chap Section 22.1 (UNEDITED) The static, hazy fluorescent light flickered once again. On this rainy night, the lights are likely to go out, accompanied by the sound of the wind outside the window, and the pleasant experience of a serial killer in the ear. If it’s a TV program, he would enjoy it with a glass of draft beer. With a small grumble, Jude leaned over the sofa and stretched his legs. The sound of rain blocked by the window hit the ear noisily. “Why?” [That would be better said later. Or the tension will lessen.] “Oh, you should be the movie director. So, what did you film at the beginning, director?” [The point here is, they weren’t closely related. Well, considering the grandfather’s big fortune, it wouldn’t have been too much. They were a little bit awkward since they don’t see each other much, and they were good at picking things up along the way. On the surface, they weren’t that bad, they were just polite people.

Prev Chap Next Book Epilogue (UNEDITED)   The weather was warm enough to be a little hot. Now the old woman, with light-grey strands began to mix in her hair, stopped her hands as she was pruning the garden and straightened her back for a while. Perhaps because of her age, her body, which used to be unaffected even after spending hours in the garden, was creaking strangely these days. After a few pats on the waist, she suddenly looked back on the quiet side of the road. It’s the suburb of Chicago and a man was walking carelessly on the road with few people coming and going. Dark blond hair and green eyes, he had only one small backpack on his shoulder. The old woman tilted her head. It was very rare for an outsider to enter this town. Glancing around and looking all over the place, he soon found the old woman and shouted and asked. "Well, which way do I have to go to get out of this

Prev Chap Next Chap Section 23.1 (UNEDITED) "......Jude." "Huh?" "Don't you have anything to cook at home?" "Yes, I don't." "......do you live on beer?" The first time he set foot in Jude’s old apartment; it was the scene before his eyes that made Tim’s brain exploded before he could feel any appreciation. The clothes that were thrown away here and there, the fluorescent lights that flickered like the morgue lights, and most of all, the unbearable thing was the table with the beer cans lying here and there and on the cabinet. Whether or not he noticed that Tim’s face was slightly stiffened, Jude answered, throwing the house key roughly onto the table. "No, I eat peanuts, too." ".....let's go grocery shopping tomorrow when we come back." "No, Tim. Two men get misunderstood when they go grocery shopping." Giggling, Jude flopped down on the sofa. Avoiding clothes an

Prev Chap Next Chap Section 23.2 (UNEDITED) "Ah, no I'm not working. Stop it, my friend's here. He’s a cop? What, you want him to catch you? Yes, do this next time. No, that doesn't mean I’m going to pick up. Are you crazy? Do you want me to keep talking to someone else on the phone? Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm hanging up." He put down the receiver, and Jude flopped down next to Tim. After a moment of hesitation, Tim hemmed and hawed then opened his mouth. "Who is it?" "Oh, you know the guy whom I got the phone call from in front of Jeffrey before. He says he’s being chased for debt, but he keeps asking this poor policeman for help." "………. since when did you know each other?" Instead of answering, Jude stared at Tim with his green eyes unwittingly. At the sight, a fever rose as if the back of his head was burning. Trying to quell the heat, Tim picked up the beer can with little content left. He licke

Prev Chap Next Chap Section 24.1 (UNEDITED) The hinges of the rusty door made an irritating sound. Being used to it, Jude kicked the door half-heartedly and closed it. A pale fluorescent light, like a dead fish eye, lit the room slightly. An envelope containing some food recipe was thrown carelessly over the sofa, and the blond detective settled on the sofa. After watching a baseball game with Jude yesterday, Tim, who slept comfortably in the squalid house, did not say he would come to Jude's house today seeing that things had been resolved. Jude was told to eat properly and was given a paper with a simple recipe when it was printed. And seeing Jeffrey come back and say, "Did you have something to say?" Tim seemed to have somehow found his backbone inside him. Recalling what he said to Tim last night, Jude looked down for a moment. Memories before ten years old. First scene. A girl caught by a robber. Alvin Jones. It was Alvin Jones after
