Chapter : 42 | LITTLE MISTAKE |

Jebi is sitting in a chair, and in a closer look, Jebi appears totally majestic, sitting in the chair like a king.

Jebi is thinking about an incident that happened sometime earlier when Jebi caught a Yakuza and tortured him to extract information.

In the incident:

A person is tied and sitting on a chair in a very dark room.

Jebi approaches him, but the other person is totally terrified because of Jebi. The person is fixated on something in Jebi's hand, specifically the scissors.

(Jebi) - "Yakuza, you better spit out everything you know! I have a bad name because of the tortures I do!"

The person hesitates before saying, "Don't you dare to mess with our king!"

(Jebi) - "King, huh? Why do you think he's a king?"

The person replies, "He is one of the kings in this world. You don't know anything about him. His power and influence span more than one continent! I understand you are a king yourself. You have quite a terrifying aura, but you are a king without a kingdom, without influence, without power."

(Jebi) - "You are mistaken. It's not like I am a king without a kingdom. No matter where I am, the place I go is my kingdom!"

In the present:

Jebi is thinking to himself, "Even though I said that, there's not so much important info that he has! The thing is, I can't kill him now. He's a big fish, one of the important figures of the Yakuza! The only two important pieces of information I have from him are that his influence is bigger than one continent, and the second thing is that there are some other powerful figures who are a threat to Vincenzo. Since that Yakuza, Kei Nishikori, called Vincenzo one of the kings!"

A officer comes to Jebi and says, "Sir, Miss Emu told me to give you this list of suspects!"

(Jebi) - "There's no need for me to look at it. We need to investigate every doctor whom we suspect."

The officer said, "But she said you need to look at it."

(Jebi) - "Fine, give me that file."

After taking a look, Jebi finds something odd. There is one guy who is a psychologist still on the list!

Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author.

(Jebi) - "You may go now. I will ask Emu regarding this file."

Jebi directly called Emu. After talking, Jebi said, "That's odd."

Actually, Emu told Jebi that the psychologist in the list is called Robert. He is a genius young psychologist. But recently, he isn’t going to work. His patients said that he is also acting very weird. All of this started when the first victim of the Grim Reaper appeared! Although at first, he went to work, but when the Grim Reaper started killing aggressively, he also stopped going to work. There must be a connection.

Jebi said "That's odd" because it looks like he is in the spotlight!

Jebi again called Emu and said, "Girl, about Robert, it's worth checking on him."

3 hours later:

Robert is in the FBI office. He is caught by Emu's team.

Robert told everything about his second personality.

Robert said that everything, like he even installed a smart door lock on his door in order to seal himself. But because of his second personality, he is now a proven killer. He admitted everything.

Everyone in the FBI is now celebrating because they finally caught the Grim Reaper!

(Jebi) - "Oy Emu, remember you made a bet about if I catch-"

(Emu) - "Yeah, yeah, I remember. Here's your 100 bucks! Really, you're gonna take money from a girl?"

(Jebi) - "I treat girls and men equally. After all, you guys wanted equality, right?"

(Emu) - "Yeah, yeah, whatever. You won. But I am happy the killer is caught now!"

(Jebi) - "Hey Emu, what happens to his property now? I mean his house, he has no family, right?"

(Emu) - "Well, his house is now under FBI surveillance. Although we didn’t put any guards there, instead we locked the doors! Why do you ask?"

(Jebi) - "Just curiosity. By the way, I will be going now! Can you place this diary on my desk?"

(Emu) - "Yeah, I can. What's in that diary?"

(Jebi) - "In this diary? After I joined the FBI, I wrote down every day's routine and usually the important things I have to do. By the way, isn't Robert staying in the FBI office today?"

(Emu) - "Yes, but why-"

Someone called Emu.

(Emu) - "Got to go."

(Jebi) - "Yes, I have to go too!"

...

30 minutes later:

Robert is in the cell. Everyone is celebrating a little party at the office.

Suddenly, a man in a black suit hiding his face came to him.

That man said, "Hey, my dear Robert. I have come to see you!"

(Robert) - "Who are you?"

That man replied, "You can't even tell who I am? Huh! I am the person who wants to help you. Well, you see, I am one of your old patients. I want to help you since you helped me! I will open this door and give you a gun. You will be free after that. You want to be free, right?"

(Robert) - "No! If I get free again, I will again kill people!"

The unknown man said, "It's easy. Go live where there are no people, live in the mountainside! Problem solved. Here is the key and gun. I will leave now. Live well, my friend. Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you the most important thing! Before you leave, write a note that 'you are innocent and you are going to prove it'. This way they will think you are still in the city!"

...

10 minutes later:

Every officer in the FBI office is now in a hurry. Robert escaped. Someone helped him to escape. All the security cameras were off when he escaped!

(Emu) - "Hey, someone call Jebi! And announce it to the media whoever can give us his location, we will give that person money! Announce it!"

Emu thought to herself, "He will be nearby. Not too much time has passed after his escape! We can catch him! Definitely!"

Emu is in the car now! A FBI officer calls Emu! Emu receives the call. On the other side of the call, the officer said, "The Grim Reaper left a note. It says he is innocent and he will prove it!"

Emu thought to herself, "So this is it! Huh, anyway, by this statement, it seems he won't leave the town, since he wants to prove his innocence! Either he can lie too! We can't take the risk!"

(Emu) - "Hey, can someone get a hold of Jebi? Call him!"

A lady officer called Jebi.

Jebi receives the call. That lady officer explained everything to Jebi.

After listening to everything, Jebi said to that officer, "Give your phone to Emu."

Jebi said to Emu, "Release the information about Robert's claims. He says he is innocent and he wants to prove his innocence."

(Emu) - "Okay! Where are you?"

Jebi cuts the phone!
