Section 2 (UNEDITED)

“Oh, I give up. I can’t. That guy, he doesn’t want to say anything in the first place.”

“But he says he's only going to talk to you.”

White shirt and black suit pants. Looking at the tall, well-defined man with a weary look as he make coffee with a coffee pot in the corner of the prison, he soon asked his partner with a worried face.

“Did he threaten you or something? Like he’ll get his friends out there and get revenge.”

“Oh? No, he didn’t say that. Oh, I actually received a confession.”

“……What?”

Tim, who looked at Jude's green eyes for a moment, asked back in a dazed voice. Jude, who was tilting his coffee cup –“Oh, hot!”– answered dryly, blowing his coffee enthusiastically.

“He likes me. He says I'm similar to him.”

“He... Did he say that?”

“What, what’s with your face? You don’t think I would have accepted that confession, do you? Tim. You know I only have you.”

While touching his chin with a serious face, the short-haired cop giggled at his partner’s unbecoming charm. As he rubbed the dark blond hair messily, Tim opened his mouth in a slightly sorry tone.

“Well, the Chief told me not to talk nonsense. Even though we already sent dozens of counsellors in, they said he didn’t say a word and he was just sitting there without any expression. He keeps demanding at you to solve it somehow. The media pressure must be quite a burden to him.”

“You can leave it to me, but it won’t yield much. Honestly, I don’t think he’s going to say anything. There’s no reason to say that the more bodies we found, the more sentence he will get. Just by seeing what was in his basement would already be a death penalty. What's the rush in this situation?”

“Well, yes, but the bereaved families are going crazy. There are a lot of people he mentioned, but no bodies have been found.”

“Ah, this is the worst thing. I'm sick of seeing him keep smiling. And you know what he said to me at the end? I was about to leave, but he called me and said, “See you again.” Ah, Tim, please say this is a dream. I’m sick of talking to him four hours a day.”

“You’re still alive and well, though. Professional psychological counsellors say they get traumatized when they interview him for three or four hours. You lose weight because of stress. Well, that’s not too much.”

“What kind of trauma is that now? I’m fed up with his field photos. Am I the one who used to look into papers in the office and attend conferences? I know nothing but common sense about profiling, but how did I end up in this situation?”

“Hahaha, that's it for today anyway. Let’s get out of the back door.”

Laughing a little due to the Chief's words, “Doesn't matter how you do it, make sure you persuade Jude well and don’t complain anymore! Don’t let that lazy fellow get away with it!” – Tim patted Jude on his back and headed for the back door. It was to avoid reporters waiting in front of the main gate and Alvin’s enthusiastic fans – even though they witnessed it in person – and they were not able to understand this incomprehensible scene themselves. Holding a paper cup while murmuring, Jude simply walked along with Tim.

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 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 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. When they m

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
