Serial killer
1854 Words
The sun was as hot as usual. A light breeze makes this the perfect day to relax.
A gentle breeze brushed against my face.
Ah... the peace, I can feel it.
"You really enjoy moments like this, don't you?" Mrs. Daiva asked.
Well ... Actually, not so peaceful because she was still beside me, while Devdan went home first, he said he had some business.
We were also still in the royal palace, wandering around for a while in the palace gardens while breathing fresh air.
If you look again, this park is very wide. Round shape, very tall bushes even taller than the human body, cut and arranged in a pattern-making it looks like a maze.
Is this really a maze?
I have to clear my head because lately a lot of troublesome things have happened. One of them and the worst is today.
"I live for times like this," I answered Mrs. Daiva's question while taking a deep breath.
"Live for moments like this? Then, what will you do if a moment like this is taken from you?"
"I will immediately destroy the person who did it and immediately reclaim my days of peace." Unknowingly my face hardened.
"Oh? If a country did it?"
"I don't care, I'll still destroy it."
"Why do you get so sentimental just for such a reason?"
"Just? Don't underestimate the purpose of my life." I glared at her.
She flinched a little.
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry. But I think you're a very opinionated person."
"Of course."
"By the way, what a shame, huh? You don't even know the other 10, but they've all died, except for Devdan."
"You mean the fake 'The Ten Rulers' at school?" I asked, walking around the palace garden fountain.
"You could say that... however, it looks like you'll be meeting them soon, not as friends, but as superiors and subordinates." She said, mocking me.
"Don't say stupid things, you're pissing me off." I reminded her.
She was right, still 16 years old and had subordinates, an accomplishment to be proud of.
Not bad, but troublesome. Especially if I also still have a boss.
"Want to go back?" Finally, he took me home.
"Yes."
"Want to get in my car again?" A sarcastic question escaped her mouth.
"No thanks, it would be faster when I am alone," I replied quickly.
He smiled wryly.
"Then don't die on the way," I replied to his sarcastic line with mine, then immediately teleported home.
I want to take a quick shower and then sleep, I'm tired.
[Next day, Sunday]
"Last night, Saturday morning, at 1:37 a.m., there was a m*********r in the Central Electronic building, the headquarters of the largest electronics company in our country.
The reported fatalities so far are 98 people, they all died horribly.
The victim's body was mutilated so that every part of her body was difficult to find….”
The voice of the news anchor on the television sounded horrifying.
I, who was having breakfast with Alicia, couldn't help but hear what the television station had to say today.
"98? That's a lot!!" Alicia couldn't contain her surprise.
She looked very scared because it was not a small amount, moreover the perpetrator must be very skilled.
Sadistic and heartless.
"It's been getting crazier lately...." I say it because it's not the first time.
Previously there was also news about mass killings with 10 fatalities.
If it was the same person who did this, why did the victims increase drastically?
What is the purpose?
I put my spoon on the plate which was still full of food. Hearing news like this made me not have the appetite to continue eating breakfast.
Suddenly my phone vibrated.
I reached for my phone, looked at the screen, and found the name of an annoying girl plastered on it.
daiva.
I immediately picked it up.
"What is wrong?" I asked.
"Have you seen the news?" Her voice sounded serious.
"You mean the m*********r? I've seen it, what does this have to do with calling?"
"King Avanindra is calling for you."
"What for?"
"Looks like he wants you to work on this case."
Oi, oi… Do I also have to take care of things like this?
But the task of the royal troops is indeed something like this...
"Are you serious? Just me?"
"Yes, but you will only accompany a Vice Admiral. I think he wants to give you your first experience as a royal trooper."
Hmm?
"You're not coming?"
"No, I will only accompany you in the palace to meet the king before you work."
"I see... well, see you at the palace." I hung up the phone, feeling a little sick.
"What's wrong, Sis? You look troubled." Alicia turned out to be secretly watching me.
"It's okay, I'll be out in a bit."
"That's so . . . do you have a business or something?"
"That is how it is."
After finishing breakfast quickly, I took the black jacket hanging by the door and put it on.
"Bye."
"Be careful!"
Small bubbles began to envelop my body.
Plop
Then I disappeared along with the bursting of the bubble.
[In the palace]
I appeared right in the middle of the royal hall.
The king sat on his throne with two people kneeling before him.
Mrs. Daiva and someone I don't know.
"Ah... Aray, welcome! What a fantastic way of appearing." King Avanindra greets.
I knelt and greeted.
"Good morning, Your Majesty, nice to meet you."
"Hahaha ... you can see from your face that you don't like this sudden call, you know!"
I looked down, not responding.
"I called you to do some work... you know the m******e, right?"
"Yes, I know."
"I want you to investigate and then catch the culprit, as well as dig up as much information as possible. You will be accompanied by Admiral Abner."
I caught sight of black-haired, sunglasses with a very serious face and a stiff look out of the corner of my eye.
"Very well, Your Majesty."
"And the three of you don't have to kneel every time you see me, it makes me look like a boring person." He laughed.
I glanced at Mrs. Daiva, she nodded, then the three of us stood up.
"Then, help him!" King Avanindra ordered Abner.
"Very well, Your Majesty." The man answered firmly.
The type of person who always follows the rules. That was my first impression of him.
When King Avanindra had left the royal hall, Abner spoke to me.
"You! I heard you're only 16 years old, I wonder what a kid like you can do. If you can't help, don't get in the way!" he shouted at me, spit out his drool, then left me.
Another annoying person appears.
I wonder why people always look down on people they just meet.
"Never mind, in this kingdom, there are indeed many like him." Mrs. Daiva held my shoulder, calming me down.
"I don't really care, I'm sure he'll get his bad luck."
"Well... I'm sure you'll be fine. I think this m*********r has something to do with the attacks from the North, so you should get as much information as possible from the culprit."
"That is easy." My reply was short.
Without much more to say, I immediately teleported to the crime scene, Central Electronic.
I appeared right in front of the CE building.
This building is very tall, with complete facilities that pamper its employees, it's no wonder that many works here.
But because of what happened last night, this building is like a haunted house.
No one.
I walked into the lobby of the CE building, looked around, checking things out.
I think I should start from here.
"Tracking."
Thin air escapes from my body, moving separately, scattering throughout the interior of this building, even to areas that cannot be reached by humans.
With those airs, I can see, feel and find what I want to look for.
I felt the air of the murder that happened last night, the fear of the victims, their screams when they were tortured and toyed with by the perpetrator.
“Please….” Their screams rang clear in my ears.
I can feel the pleasure, the joy of the perpetrator when he kills the victims.
Unfortunately, all I feel right now is what the victims felt last night.
I can't help them.
Normally I don't care, but for some reason, I felt annoyed this time.
The air had worked well, moving back to me.
With my searchability, the murder scene and the location of the body whose whereabouts were unknown were found in a very short time.
"You! How did you get here first? Even though I was already riding my motorbike faster than usual." Abner ran into the lobby of the building and immediately shouted.
I turned to hear the ramblings of a talkative i***t.
"Don't say much, I don't want to hear your snarling, just do what you want to do." Look at me cynically.
"Huh... I don't care if you come earlier than me, at least you haven't done anything either."
"It's up to you, me first."
"Where are you going? Don't act like you know this place."
Truly a person full of envy and envy.
"Search." Suddenly he used his ability.
The air felt very light, the objects around me began to glow, emitting mysterious energy.
But that only happened for a moment.
"I found it, where the victims haven't been found."
Oh? In just a second?
Turns out he wasn't too bad.
He immediately ran past me. Since the elevator couldn't be used, he spun around, running up the stairs.
He did such a troublesome thing with great zeal.
But sorry, I wouldn't do that kind of thing.
When he arrived at the crime scene, I was already there, staring at the dismembered bodies of corpses.
It's really sad.
"How—" His words were stifled by the sight of the bodies of the corpses drowned by the sea of blood.
"These are the bodies of the victims who haven't been found yet. Since it's in a room that is completely invisible to ordinary people, you opened the door using force, right?" I asked.
"Yes, because this room is not visible from the outside. The perpetrator used an antidote, so I used a reversal to neutralize the magic. Looking at the door, it is certain that the culprit is someone who also has the ability." He concluded.
"Indeed, and with this, I know where the culprit is hiding." I smile.
"Ha? How did you do that? Where did you come from anyway? You're suddenly here." Abner looked confused.
"You're asking too many questions. Shut up and follow me. Ah... You won't be able to follow me, so I'll tell you the location."
"Don't underestimate me. What can a brat like you do?"
I didn't care about his ramblings.
"The location is the basement."
"The dungeon? Don't joke, there's no such place in this building!"
"Noisy."
Then I teleported leaving him alone in the b****y room.
