The door slammed shut on the three men. JB entered first and turned to his two friends and signaled them to make sure that no one was following them. The two nodded and looked outside before finally locking the door. The road leading to the storage is not covered by CCTV, even if the storage has no camera inside. So that's how the three of them are complacent. "How's it?" was JB's question. The two shook their heads. Elyano replied, "Safe and clean, no intruder." "Good, because this is extremely confidential. If we fail..." he looked around at Elyano and Brian who swallowed at the same time, "...we'll die." After talking, they began administering the drugs to the attendees. This drug is a product of Montevallo Corp., and what they are doing now is a test in order to become a permanent part of the company. Montevallo Corp. officials explained that the new drugs must be tested on a large number of people to ensure their effectiveness. This assured them that the drug was not dead
O N E W E E K A G O, B E F O R E T H E P A R T Y. P A S A Y, M A N I L A, 1300 S A N L U I S S T R E E T. In an alley in San Luis, a woman in black is walking quietly and with her head bowed. Medium height, wearing All-Star shoes and both hands are inside her pocket. It was past three-thirty in the morning, and only she and a few stray dogs and cats were on the road. The surroundings were quiet, all that could be heard was the rustling and movement of animals and the fast running of a few vehicles. When she reached the destination, she was aiming for, she stopped and then looked up. "JSB Apartment." Her deep voice was uplifting, accompanied by a horrible smile on her lips. She started walking into the building. She even peeked at the guard house and was greeted by a gaping guard who was fast asleep in the chair. He didn't even bother to turn off the open TV. She proceeded to enter the building. Even though she walked normally, no noise could be heard. No one was even in t
The woman was shocked at what she heard. That woman's voice was strange, very deep as if death had come from the depths of the earth. "W-What? For m-me? What do you mean?" the woman trembled in fear. She squinted her eyes, trying to gaze at this person's face but she failed. The room is too dim. Based on her height, she's not as tall as every guy. She also remembered how slender the hand that choked her earlier. Then it came into her; this person is a woman. A dangerous one. She might lose her life at any given moment due to her strong and creepy aura. 'B-But what is she doing here? 'H-How did she get in? Isn't it... JB sent her here?! But I promised not to speak! Why would they kill me?! Isn't what they did to me enough—their prostitution?!' Sadness, anger, and astonishment enveloped her mind. Until a tear dripped from the side of Maria Labintino's right eye. The mysterious woman, all of a sudden, chuckled. "Why would I work for someone when I can take care of myself? Killing
P R E S E N T T I M E. Mike stepped down to the end of the rooftop and then walked around there. His meticulousness was restored so he immediately frowned when he noticed the blood stains on the floor. He walked towards it. He sat down and touched the red liquid with his finger to make sure it was blood. His instincts did not disappoint him. 'This is not a suicide, but a murder. A game where the payoff lives and no one is left behind.' "Mike!" He looked away when he heard her name. Casya greeted him with a steady gasp as she stepped closer to him. He raised his eyebrows and then faced it. "Did you find another clue?" he asked in a baritone voice. Casya nodded quickly. "Yes. Derek called me; they retrieved the victim's phones despite what happened. Luckily, the damage it got wasn't severe," she said while nodding. "And... this time, the killer left a code, unlike our previous cases. They found codes for the murder. "Here, takes a look at this," Casya pulled out a piece of paper
S E R I O U S C R I M E T E A M O N E, O F F I C E, M A K A T I C I T Y. Tony was busy watching the CCTV footage he had asked for in the hotel control room. It was easier here in their office that he continued watching so as not to disturb the technicians in the control room. The headphones were slammed into both of his ears and it was as if his eyes were glued to the monitor. Every move of the video was fast but everything was still clear in Tony’s eyes. He's the eye of the group. That’s why Eagle Eye is his nickname. His sharp eyesight was one of the reasons why he became the facilitator of their group. His outward appearance likens him more to an unruly child than a legendary officer. His keen insight and quick wit made him more than capable of solving crimes. As usual, his hair is messy, he sits on his place in a slouch, and he never runs out of lollipops to eat. Nevertheless, he's the best hacker in their field. Just be careful not to be deceived by his sly exterior, for some
A pitch-black shadow passed by. It's not a human or a human shadow, they can't figure out what kind of creature it is. The only thing they knew was the fear it caused in their system.It even went right down the hallway, as if death were to be fetched that night.They both do not believe in any such phenomenon, so they are stunned when they see it with their own eyes.It was as if their hair stood on end. They saw anything like that only once during their time as police officers. A few minutes passed and the shadow finally disappeared, yet their mouths remained gaping.Suddenly, Andrei's serious expression returned immediately, "Have you verified the source of this video?" he asked."I did.""What did you get?"Tony sighed. “Nothing. Error. I can no longer track the sender's location. He is also smart, whoever this person is,” he said and grinned. "But what amazed me the most was the numbers that were posted here." He highlights the numbers sent in the email with the video.Andrei loo
Stunned, the three looked at each other, except for Mike before following the director towards his office. They went to the office with Derek whom they met on their way to the office. “What is he intending to tell us? It seems important because he calmed down immediately,” Andrei whispered while elbowing Derek to get his attention. Mike and Casya walk in front at the same time, while the three of them are in the back together.Black Dog is what they call Derek Paz. He is the most adept at finding evidence. He can tell instantly whether the person he is talking to is good or not. He is also very strict with the results of the cases, he will not release until the culprit is caught.Mike's nickname is Bear. If you look at him from a distance, you would think it would be easy to approach him, but behind his seemingly innocent appearance are razor-sharp nails. This is because you don't realize that he's just using you for his own purposes, he never chooses an opponent.Bunny, on the other
2:30 AM,C H I E F D I R E C T O R ’S O F F I C E.Mike's group had left, leaving Ameira alone in the office.Mike didn't prolong their conversation. His ears were closed to hear any explanation from their leader. He also knew that the Chief Director would not listen to his grievances.Despite her group's rejection of her, Ameira was complacent because she knew she didn't have anything else to worry about. The chief decided and nobody could break that."Don't mind them. No matter if they want you to or not, you are part of their team. Even though Mike is stubborn and reluctant to obey, I know he will choose the best part of their team. Additionally, he will surely enjoy your participation in the group when he sees your skill in solving crimes. Maybe you will be even closer." The chief laughed a little at the last thing. When he didn't receive a response from Ameira, he sighed and fixed his seat."I know you have nothing to do with the deaths of the victims. I'm sure of that because I
