The town was sleeping in their blankets with a cold breeze filling up the air outside for this was the month of December. Stars were the only blanket for dogs in the town and the homeless men who shivered in the chills of December. A cop called Spencer blake was still awake and strolling in the town looking out for goons and burglars. Spencer was tired and longed for a nap in the lonely night while he was walking all alone. Spencer decided to go back to his office and take a nap finally when something heavy fell off from the sky. A drop of blood spilled over Spencer's cheek when he looked down to see a dead body in front of him and got him chills. These chills were not from December, and Spencer looked above to see a piece of paper falling down. Spencer's eyes grew bigger and the city woke up to gossip about this sudden death. It was a young girl whose one eye was taken out, toes were missing, nostrils filled with thumbs scratches on the face and one breast was bleeding. The very image of the girl's condition freaked out the whole town giving them all chills.
JJ Warren and his team gathered up to analyze this new murder. "The same pattern, this is Gunther Fisk again, who was the witness?" asked Warren. "It was me, sir, Spencer Blake, I was on my duty near the Hempton building and she fell off from above," said Spencer, "Hempton building? was the window open?" JJ Warren said with a higher depth in his voice, "I did not notice that sir," Spencer said quietly. "Call the cops, we need to investigate this one, Hempton building belongs to Boris Travis, and he is the next prey of the killer!" ordered Warren with a loud voice and the whole staff around him hasted. Boris Travis who was alone in his house saw the head cop rushing towards him, "Sir! JJ Warren wants to meet you, you are in trouble," said the cop. Warren and Spencer hurried towards the Hempton building and found the building empty. "This is big enough to kill someone and throw them out of the window, let's go up and search for an open window, or maybe closed if the killer was smart enough to close it without you noticing it," said Warren and Spencer felt ashamed for missing out on the window. But what else could he do, he was freaked out at the moment. Both the boys went upstairs and checked every single room of the building when JJ finally found a room with an open window. "Bingo! here's one room with an open window and no blood strains, our killer is a smart guy, which I had already concluded yesterday!" said Warren with a smile on his face, "Sir! I found something!" shouted Spencer when Warren started running towards him.
It was a room filled with bloodstains all over the floor and walls. There was a plier covered up with blood dropped on the floor and there were toes cut out on the floor. On the wall, there was a warning,
Don't play with me, my shadow will eat you like her, JJ Warren
"He knows me," JJ murmured and was anxious to find his name on the wall. For a few seconds, JJ Warren starred at the warning on the wall with a shivered soul. "When I saw the dead body, I also got a piece of paper with it," said Spencer, "You are an idiot Spencer! why didn't you show it to me earlier!" shouted Warren snatching the paper from Spencer's hands. The message on the paper read,
I am coming for you all.
yours truly,
Gunter Fisk
"Let's go, we are done here," said Warren. Warren never felt so challenged in his entire life before while he was walking down the road to his office. Entering his office he found Boris Travis safe and sitting on a chair surrounded by two cops for his protection, "Hey, did you find him? am I still in trouble," said Boris in a tense tone, "Calm down, you are safe till the time you are with me, the girl was murdered in your building, who had the access to enter it at late night?" Warren asked, "We don't work there anymore, it was just one guard who was always on duty till the new owners take over," said Boris, "But there was no guard present there when I was on my duty," said Spencer. "Maybe he killed him too!" said JJ Warren with a smirk.
"Sir! the guard near the Hempton building was found dead but his dead body doesn't hold any patterns like the other dead bodies," said one of the cops who were in the Hempton building for an investigation. "Uh, we already figured it out, thanks," said JJ Warren with a smile, "But why is there no pattern in his dead body, wasn't he killed by Gunther Fisk?" asked Boris. "I think our killer was the one to kill this guard too. But he didn't show any pattern because he wants us to think or know that there are more people in his team or he can do normal crimes too breaking the pattern. He is playing with us, he knows me and thus he is throwing hints which I can figure out, and he can have some fun," said JJ Warren, "But why would he do that?" asked Boris. JJ Warren replied, "Because he is crazy and just wants to play," said Warren in a confident tone, "And till the time he is not caught let's assume he is Gunther Fisk, although it's his fake name, people need a name to be famous so let it be," Warren continued.
"Will he come back to kill me? I am scared can I have your protection?" asked Boris in a really tense tone, "No, he won't bother you next time," Warren continued, "He loves playing, so he loves challenges and saving you, I challenged his ego, so he will spare you for now, but never say never, he might return, but you are safe according to me," "According to you? I can't risk my life on an assumption, I need cops around me," said Boris in a firm voice, "Alright! you'll have these two cops for you, but they will leave your company any time I need their help for my investigation, do we have a deal?" said Warren. "Alright, I'll go for this one," said Boris. "And Spencer! you will stay with me all the time during this mission, I don't want a risk, you were there and never saw any clues, either you are stupid or you are Fisk," said Warren followed by a laugh.
Boris and Spencer got scared for a moment but Warren looked out of the window towards the mother bird feeding her children.
