Dr. Jimenez, seemed amused by what he said. "Then?"Nico frowned, "Your next victim is Mrs. Bonnie Javier. When we looked at her files, her husband Mr. Javier was an important contributor of this company --- the DEATH. Since you are the senior consultant of the company, You and Mrs. Javier have probably met in recent months. Same method. You visited their house without her husband, were amused, and when Mrs. Javier was careful, you mixed amitriptyline pills into her drink. I'm guessing, you've crushed the pills into powder --- the easier it will dissolve. When Mrs. Javier took the chemical and it affected her, you committed your heinous crime and took her heart. You struck her head, then chopped it off. You buried her head in the San Andres mansion because you knew Mrs. Javier's lover Vincent Antonio was a gardener there. You even left the mansion's address at the crime scene. "When Dr. laughed. Jimenez, "And how did I do it, Nico? It's impossible for me to bury my head there in the
Crime of Passion Chapter 36
Dr. smiled sadly. Jimenez, and at that moment, it was as if Nico had once again met the kind and gentle senior consultant of the company. The Heartless Killer sighed, "I was having second thoughts whether you'd survive that attack or not. So I gave Neilson that letter ... If you die, you are not worthy to unravel my identity and make it this far. But if you survive, you'll be able to find that note and solve the riddle --- leading you to the truth --- before I kill you. At the very least, you'll know my identity before you die. It was a challenge, really. How fun it is to have two of Eastwood's greatest detectives wrapped around your fingers! "Nico nodded, "But we survived that night. Now, we know your identity, Cassio --- but I won't let you kill us, or escape justice. You said it yourself. You lead us to the Void because you want us to know the truth ... Alas! I have found the truth, Heartless Killer and I am sick of your fucking games. " From the pocket of his jacket, Nico pulled
Crime of Passion Epilogue
He slammed Nico's head on his desk, making the detective gasp for air. When Nico looked into Cassio's eyes, it was as if he was staring into the eyes of a demon. The intestines are merciless and obstructive. The man had cold and lifeless eyes, and that was enough to make a chill run down Nico's spin. Gradually, he felt fear of this creature.It choked him.Nico could barely breathe."Your passion will soon poison you, detective. You'll be like me too. You will fucking hate the people you protect, and I'll sell my soul to the devil to witness your downfall! HAHAHAHAHA!"Nico could hardly breathe with the intensity of the stranglehold on him. His body is losing oxygen and he can't fight back. He tried to struggle, but the Heartless Killer was just stronger.'I can't die!'The drawer of his desk was weak and trembling. He finally grabbed the object and thrusted it at Cassio Salvador's face. "TANGINA! ARGH!" Cassio cried out in pain at what Nico had done, blood dripping from his eyes. Nic

April 16, 2008Eastwood1:49 a.m."Things could've turned out differently, Gwen."The depth of a man's voice echoed in the quiet room. Its tone was eerie as he arranged the utensils on the table: a matchbox, a small jar, and their old butcher's knife. He gently put down the fuel bottle and faced the woman who had almost fainted at the events. His hands were tied and his skin was wet from a mixture of sweat and gasoline.The sickening stench of gasoline made her stomach churn. He had long since stopped struggling because he knew his wife was stronger.It's no use.He's a demon in human flesh. Anticipating his next move would mean death to her.The man frowned when he saw his beloved wife look away. He hurriedly kissed her forehead and wipped away her tears. "Shh. Don't be afraid, dear. This will all be over soon. You won't even feel the pain, b*tch!" An uplifting laugh escaped her mouth and buried the nails in the woman's scalp.Her screams were muffled by the cloth gagged into her mou

"I can see you're up to the challenge. I expect no less from our primary agent."Dr. stood up. Jimenez and smiled at the young man. Now Nico has placed the pictures on his desk, studying them carefully and seems to be deep in thought. He gave no sign of hearing the words of their senior consultant. Dr. just sighed. Jimenez. 'Once a case interests him, he seems to have lost his attention on this planet,' he thought."Expect a raise in salary once this is over."The young detective looked up, "Money has never been an issue for me, Doc. I do this out of passion.""Whatever you say. By the way, you still need to know.""Shoot.""It's not just DEATH that Eastwood Police asked for help. They also hired an agent from SHADOW."Nico's eyes narrowed. He had a different idea of it! "Damn it. Don't tell me --- ?!""Yes. Unfortunately, you'll be working with a partner in this case. Guess who?"The detective completely lost his mood and did not want to lean back in his leather chair. If there’s a

"Briannova Carlos."Nico repeated the name of the girl sitting opposite him. "I should've known that you're a girl." She sighed and watched the waiter as they laid their order on the table. It's only been a few minutes since they've met, and the young detective already concluded that she's trouble."Is there a problem if I'm a girl? I wasn't informed that you DEATH agents are judgmental."The young man frowned. "That's not what I meant, Nova."The woman stopped sipping tea and quickly turned to him. Her eyes narrowed. "What did you just call me?""Nova," Nico shrugged, "or would you like me to call you 'Brian', instead?" He's teasing here.Nova stopped talking and continued sipping tea. Nico reluctantly swirled the tea before gently removing it from himself. He doesn't like tea.When Nova lowered her cup, "Looks like you don't like tea.""Never did, never will."He just nodded and picked up a brief case. Nova looked around first to make sure no one could hear their conversation. Fortu
Crime of Passion Chapter 4
The moment Nico stepped out of the shop, he immediately saw the female detective standing to one side and talking to an old man. 'She still has time to be a good samaritan while working?' he frowned at the thought. He waited for the old man to get away before speaking."Their family has just moved and she's asking for directions. She's looking for the hospital where her son works." Nico was unaware of those words coming out of his mouth.Nova immediately shot him an incredulous look. "How did you know that? You could've been eavesdropping."Nico shrugged without emotion. He doesn't have time wasting his saliva on an amateur who can't appreciate the art of deduction. He reminded himself that he had to talk to the old HELP chief to remove this woman from the case. 'She's just a weight,' Nico thought.They were just walking quietly when he suddenly stopped. Nova immediately noticed this and turned to him, "What is it?""On the count of three, run behind that black Audi." At the same time

Miranda Perez's residence11:32 a.m."Covs borrowed money from me that day. I was just going to deliver it to him because I was on my way home from work when I noticed the door was open."Nova nodded and took down notes like a good detective would do. He would not waste his several years of training with the agency just to miss a few details in an important case like this. "Did you notice a suspicious person before you saw your cousin's body?"Miranda, the victim's cousin and the first to see the body, thought for a moment.Yes, Special Agent Briannova Carlos is pretty sure that she's handling things smoo ---"Are you recalling scenes from your memory? Or, perhaps, you are thinking of an excuse to lead us off the case?"Miranda's eyes widened when the young man next to Nova suddenly spoke. Nico leaned closer and narrowed his eyes at the girl, making the witness feel uneasy. Nova just landed on his forehead. 'What the heck is he doing?' He stopped his annoyance by taunting Eastwood's "
