Chapter 106 - The Body that Disappeared
Chapter 106: The Body that Disappeared
That night, as the incident continued to escalate, police around the world also released their statements on Twitter, reminding citizens not to go out alone at night.
It was the same in New York. After the announcement, many netizens reacted.
“If the murderer dares to come, the Death Inquisitor will immediately catch him!”
“I didn’t think that New York would actually become a safe city because of the Death Inquisitor. I really don’t know what the police think!”
“Will the New York police dare to announce how much the crime rate in New York has decreased after the Death Inquisitor’s live broadcast?”
“Of course they won’t dare! If their achievements after so many years are not as good as the Death Inquisitor’s, how embarrassing would that be!”
“What’s there to be afraid of? Haven’t they embarrassed themselves enough?”
“Please ask the Death Inquisitor to come to Los Angeles. There are scums here who must be eliminated as soon as possible!”
“Hey, are you from Los Angeles? Me too! The Inquisitor hasn’t broadcasted live for a few days. We need him! Inquisitor, please come to Los Angeles!”
“Me too. I wish for the Death Inquisitor to come to Los Angeles! My gift has been prepared!”
Meanwhile, in the office of the New York Police Department’s Zero Major Crimes Unit...
Judy read the comments one by one. She laughed and said, “Our police department’s Twitter account is almost becoming the Death Inquisitor’s exclusive Twitter account. The people of California have all come to leave messages. Do you think the Death Inquisitor knows about this by now? Will he make a move like he did last time?”
Monica tidied up the hair on her forehead and said, “Although this incident happened in Los Angeles, it has shocked the entire United States. The impact of the incident has completely surpassed the incident of the bun incident. The Death Inquisitor will definitely know about it, but it is hard to say whether he will make a move. After all, he is in New York, unless he is no longer here.”
Ross thought for a moment and said, “If he really broadcasted it live, then he would probably leave New York. The plane, the train, the highway—those might be clues.”
“Leader, how much traffic does New York have in a day? This is simply an impossible mission.” Bowman shook his head.
“I’m just saying there’s nothing much. Everyone, go back and rest,” Ross said as he walked into the room next door. This was a room that displayed all kinds of game props used by the Death Inquisitor.
The Zero Major Crimes Unit had been moved to the warehouse in the north of the police station. The scene that the Death Inquisitor had once broadcasted was converted into an office. At this time, Ross proposed to use this method to remind himself.
Although the Los Angeles gut-cutting case had attracted the public’s attention, at this time, crimes had not stopped. They were still spreading.
Just like in New York, there had been two cases of missing women falling from buildings in the past few days. One of them happened around 9 PM. Someone witnessed the scene and saw someone fall from a building. There was a pool of blood at the scene, but the police did not find the body. There were also witnesses to the other case, but the body disappeared after the fall. There was no clue at the moment, which made Patrick, who was in charge of the case, very anxious and distressed.
“Why don’t we take the case to Ross? That guy is smart. Maybe he can provide us with some clues,” said his colleague Donald.
Patrick shook his head and said, “Forget it. Now that the Zero Major Crimes Squad has moved to the warehouse, they are focusing on investigating about the Death Inquisitor. Let’s not give them any trouble. How about this—you accompany me to the scene again. I don’t believe that the body flew away by itself.”
Then, a police car left the police station and entered the night.
At this time, in an ordinary residential building, a young man was holding a DSLR camera and taking photos.
Ka ka ka!
His face revealed a very excited and strange smile.
“Too beautiful. Too perfect. This moment is the most beautiful moment in your life!”
The man smiled sinisterly. In front of him was a modified vertical refrigerator. Inside the refrigerator stood two women with pale skin. One of them had lost half of her head and one of her eyeballs was missing. The other man had a broken neck and his head was tilted to one side. There were many broken bones all over his body. The white bones were exposed, making him look very eerie.
Ka ka ka!
The man changed another angle and continued to take pictures.
Looking at the frozen pictures, the man’s mood became better and better.
After taking close to a hundred pictures in a row, the man closed the refrigerator. His face was full of reluctance. Then, he sat on the sofa, sipping his coffee and flipping through the pictures he had just taken.
At this moment, an email notification popped up on the computer.
The man glanced at it. The title of the email caught his eye. It was a death notice!
He had only glanced at it unintentionally, but it turned into a nightmare for him.
The man’s body trembled crazily.
Clang!
A sound was heard, and the DSLR camera in his hand fell to the ground.
A death notice!
‘The Death Judge has his eyes on me?’
Then, the man’s hand trembled as he opened the email.
—
Death Notice!

Crime: murder
Executor: Death Judge

“Death Judge! It’s really the Death Judge!”
Cold sweat drenched Garcia’s back. He knew very well that this was not a prank, because even the police had yet to figure out how the body disappeared. They would not know that it was him who killed the person, and the death notice clearly stated that the crime was murder. Obviously, the other party knew that he had killed the person. Only the Death Judge had the ability to do so.
“F*ck! Why are you targeting me? Why are you going to judge me?!” Garcia roared. Thinking about the previous death live broadcasts, he could not help but tremble.
“What should I do? Should I call the police? Should I call the police?”
This thought suddenly appeared in Garcia’s mind, but his eyes quickly fell on the refrigerator. He shook his head. Moreover, in the previous live broadcast, weren’t the two people who were brought to the police station also dead?
No! I can’t call the police. If I call the police, I will die!
‘That’s right! Leave this place, leave this city... Today is May 11. I still have one more day. It is enough for me to escape this city!’
Garcia immediately packed his things. He took the money, ATM card, and the DSLR camera. Before he left, he opened the refrigerator to take a look at the two corpses. Cold air floated in the air. At this moment, his anxious and fearful heart suddenly calmed down.
“So beautiful!”
