As you all city folks know, there are many things to see in the bustling city in the night time, and Japan? Well, this part of the country called 'Kabukicho' has more, let's say, 'interesting' things to offer.
Decorated what looks like a café, tall and compact buildings as if taking more space would be blasphemy, girls taking selfies right on the center of the road or some girls in bikini advertising from the top of the buildings, damn who does that? Even guys jumping down from tall buildings.
And me? Well, I am Detective on vacation and Japan is my current stop. Oh and by the way, I'm not the kind who solve mysteries, murder cases, find lost people, find people hidden in darkness.
Nah, I am unique, anyone can do the above homework I mentioned. I don't. So don't get confused alright?
I am the kind who gives the homework. Murder? Serial Killing? Creating these so called mysterious murder cases? You name it, I'll do it, no promises on the last one though.
And the guy you jumped just now? That's not me! I just want to have some peace of mind! I'm on a vacation for god's sake.
I just wanted to take a break from my room and get some free air, well maybe indulge in my hobbies a little here and there. But seeing suicide? Isn't old fashioned now a days? Isn't that, what the kids worship again? Truck guy! Yes! That, isn't that's what in trend now?
*BAM*
'...'
Well, now that it comes to this, let's just return back. Way to spoil the mood.
*Ring*Ring*
'...'
*Sigh*
"Hello?"
"Detective Sir! There's an urgent situation. A man jumped from a building in the Red-Light District, your assistance is needed as per the request of Chief. The suspect might still in the area so be careful." said the voice in earnest and cut the line.
"They hung up on me."
And there goes my holiday, just like that. Looks like I have no choice. Duty calls I guess. Did I mentioned you that I was being followed?
"Greetings Detective Colin. It has been a while since we last met." said a stranger in white coat.
"And who might you be?" I inquired.
"It's me, Glenn McCoy. You forgot didn't you." he said in a matter of fact tone.
"Yup, sorry about that. Same location?" To be honest I didn't want to meet him. This guy is surrounded by lot of mysteries, unsolved cases, and is suspected to have at least 10 murders. How is still roaming around is still a mystery, or more like he had solid alibi every single time, for every single one of them.
Nodding his head, we started moving in the same direction. We weren't far from the location and I'm not much of a-
*Bang*
W-Wait what? I've been shot? Why? Who?
"Apologies Colin, it had to be done." said Glenn while holding a gun pointing towards me, It's all but clear he is responsible for shooting me.
"B-But why?" I asked, still not sure why he killed me. What could be the reason?
"Why? Because someone hired me that's all." said Glenn, in cold voice.
I took a deep breath and asked the final question on me, "W-Who?"
He eyes turned cold, but their was a hint of something in in it, a hint of....amusement?
"Who knows? Maybe a family member of one your victims?"
"This is amusing to y-you, isn't....it?" I asked, i was losing blood but I have to know who.
"Of course it is. Do you want to know the who?"
I nodded with the last of my strength.
"Not telling." This bastard, he is laughing at the dying person! T-That's-
"That's....not.....f-fair.....don't you-"
*Bang*
"Shh, don't tell." said Glenn, but their was no one to listen to. Well, at least no one alive.
[Ding! Processing....Congrats host, you have completed your task. You have killed all of your targets. Total count: 104. You are now eligible for the criteria. Instant Death in 3....2....1]
Just as the count down finished, Glenn, the person behind the death of detective Colin, died. Cause of death, Heart failure. This situation, although varied in time, happened in just a few more places.
