After these few rounds of killing, he had become more mature, and his various abilities had increased rapidly.
For example, at this moment, he replayed the entire process and realized the mistake he had made in the past.
In the first two cases, he had left the Dreamland Puppet at the scene and did not retrieve it in time.
This was a huge flaw!
But at that time, he was still a rookie and it was inevitable that he would make some mistakes.
But now, he would not easily leave any traces.
Therefore, he immediately decided to retrieve the Dreamland Puppet beside Davis as soon as possible!
Predictably, Hughes was becoming terrifying at an extremely fast speed.
He was truly becoming an executioner walking in the darkness!
Punishing crimes, sentencing people to death!
…
In less than one month’s time, murder cases happened one after another in Gotham City!
Moreover, the people involved were all important figures!
Jerry Mac, Ada!
And now, there was Rodriguez and Davis!
Especially the Rodriguez family! Wow, the whole family was dead.
The entire Gotham City went crazy. Countless media were vying to report this matter.
A huge amount of public opinion flooded in!
Under such circumstances, the Gotham City Chief felt terrible. He was about to go crazy.
Ever since he took charge of the office, he had never been so troubled.
He now seriously suspected that there was something wrong with the police department’s feng shui.
Otherwise, how could they have encountered such a terrible thing?
Just as he was sighing, Alice pushed the door open and entered.
Upon seeing her, the Chief hurriedly asked, “How is it? How is the investigation going? What exactly is going on?”
“Well…”
Upon hearing the inquiry, Alice did not report in a swift and decisive manner as usual.
Instead, after a moment of silence, she opened her mouth and said with a strange expression, “The investigation is clear. It was an accident!”
“What?”
“Another accident?”
The Chief cried out in surprise.
He looked at Alice in disbelief and asked, “What the hell is going on? Why are there always such accidents recently?”
“Yes, the evidence at the scene is very sufficient. Basically, we can reconstruct the scene at that time.”
Alice said, “And we also verified this through the surveillance cameras. There is nothing that can be questioned. The thing is, Davis killed his father, Rodriguez, with his own hands, and then drove away in a hurry. In the end, he died in a traffic accident on the way!”
“Davis killed Rodriguez? His son killed him?”
The Chief was even more perplexed.
“Yes, that’s the situation.” Alice said with a sigh, “Who would have thought that such a tragedy would happen in a family with such a high social status? It seems that the competition among these rich people is really terrifying. In the face of huge benefits, the so-called father-son relationship is actually worthless. The darkness of human nature… It’s saddening.”
Hearing this, the Chief nodded with a wry smile. “Yes. Sometimes, wealth is not a good thing.”
Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and asked again, “By the way, didn’t you report to me two days ago that the previous two cases had something in common? You said the victims had an exquisite puppet by their side. What about this time? Did you find anything?”
“No,”
Alice shook her head, “Actually, when I found out that Davis died in an accident, the first thing that came to my mind was that strange puppet. I immediately started searching, but I didn’t find anything. Whether it was Davis’ residence, his car, or other places, I searched them all. There was nothing unusual. It seems that this was really an accident!”
“I see.” The Chief nodded, then looked at Alice with a serious face, and said, “By the way, I haven’t told you yet. Ever since I got the clue about the puppet you reported, I suddenly thought of a scary place. After a simple investigation, I really found something!”
“What?”
Alice’s eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly asked, “Chief, where is it? What did you find?”
“The dark net!”
The Chief’s face was solemn as he slowly spat out two words.
It was as if these two words were as heavy as a thousand tons to say it out.
“The dark net?”
Alice was puzzled and asked, “What is this place?”
“It’s a website. A gathering place for assassins, a place specially for them to accept missions.”
“What?” Alice was shocked. “How is this possible? Why is there such a place? Why didn’t the police destroy it?”
Hearing that, the Chief could not help but smile bitterly. “It’s not that we didn’t want to take it down, it’s that we couldn’t!”
“In fact, we’ve investigated this website many times before, trying to find who’s the person behind it. But unfortunately, we couldn’t find anything at all. Even blocking its IP address was useless. It will come back again with another new website. It couldn’t be destroyed at all.”
“Since that’s the case, after a long time, we could only let it develop. As long as it doesn’t affect the lives of ordinary people, doesn’t affect social order, and doesn’t bother us, we can’t actually control it,”
“Not only that, but there’s also another point. Our government used this website to do some top-secret things.”
“There’s actually such a place! I never knew about it!” Alice’s red lips parted slightly, her face full of surprise.
In her opinion, no matter what kind of dark place it was in this world, it could not escape the pursuit of the police in the end.
Although there were still criminals, they were like rats crossing the street, fleeing in panic.
But she did not expect that there was such a dignified criminal organization operating in broad daylight, and it had lasted for such a long time without collapsing.
This was simply unbelievable!
This piece of information took Alice a long time to digest before she came back to her senses.
Since the government could not do anything about the dark net, she decided to let it go.
At this moment, she finally remembered what the Chief had said and immediately asked, “Chief, you said that you found something on the dark net just now. What is it?”
“As it turns out, your guess is correct. The deaths of Jerry Mac and Ada were not an accident!”
The Chief looked at Alice with appreciation, then said, “I found it on the dark net. Someone once issued a mission to kill Jerry Mac and Ada, and someone has already accepted it. Most importantly, the mission has been completed,”
“It means that an assassin really killed the two of them and made it look like an accident!”
As he spoke, the Chief paused for a moment before he continued, “And the assassin who completed the mission is called the Puppeteer!”
