The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective
Chapter 12 - 12: Wise Man
At the gym... CatsEye and Phantom were having their sparring session. 2 hours had passed and the two of them were panting and sweating a lot. Charles was watching them on the side.
"You improved a lot. You move very fast. I couldn't defeat you now." Phantom praised her.
"So accept it, you are just an old geezer now. Sign of aging Master." Elle smiled at him mockingly.
"Haha Ok...let's have a rest. I want to talk to you about something.", Phantom stared at her seriously.
"The Skull Gang will surely hunt you down. Don't underestimate their power. Killing Jorge Arison couldn't weaken them. His eldest son James Arison will become their leader now." He warned her.
"She is not afraid of anything.No worries master". Charles butted in. "By the way Master, Jorge Arison was a brave man. He was not afraid of Elle. He was so calm that time even though he was about to die. And did I tell you about the absurd negotiation between him and Elle?"
Phantom patted Charles' shoulder "Yeah, you already said it so many times. You are really a talkative one. I am proud of you for staying alive while being with CatsEye. Remember she really hates noisy people."
"Haha It only means I am a capable one. She needed me. Without me she could not transact with the clients. No transaction, no money. We just gained 50 billion in just 3 Days!" Charles said proudly
Elle gave him a sharp glare. Charles shivered and he shut his mouth immediately. Phantom laughed at them.
"Jorge Arison has a cancer. It is already in Stage 4. His family didn't know about it. It was a secret between him and his doctor." Phantom said to them. Elle and Charles were stunned upon hearing it. As realization came to them, a laughter errupted in the gym. It was Elle.
"He was indeed a very wise man." Elle shooked her head. '
"That's explain why he is not afraid of Elle. He is already dying. But....wait master...you said it was a secret and no one knows about it except him and his doctor. How come you know about it?" Charles asked him curiously. Elle also glanced at him waiting for his answer.
"One week before you murdered him, he contacted me. He informed me that he has a cancer and he tried to hire me to kill himself. He was a proud man. He doesn't want people to pity him. He doesn't want his family to worry about him. And he doesn't want to appear weak to his competitors. For him it was an embarrassment so he preferred to die rather than to be embarass in front of his opponents."
"Haha Dark Knight really couldn't win against him. He was always two steps ahead of them. It seemed like Dark Knight fulfilled his wish. Why you didn't kill him?" Elle couldn't help but laugh.
"I refused his offer. I said I already retired. Since Dark Knight instigated this murder. They will surely experience the Skull Gang's wrath." Phantom smirked at the thought of this "two powerful organization in the underground world will fight for the power. Killing Jorge meants it is the start of the war."
"The two of you should be careful. You are already involved here. They will catch you and make you confess who is behind the assassination and the war will begin." Phantom warned them.
"They can try....but I will make sure they will be the one to sufffer. I could just eliminate them one by one." Elle said with excitement.
"Ok. I wouldn't stay long. I will go abroad today. If you need something just call me."
"Master can I tag along with you?". Charles said with a puppy eye.
"No, you should stay here with Elle. You must assist her." Phantom gave him a serious look. Charles had no choice but to stay so he just nodded . Phantom bade them a goodbye and he left.

At Arison's Residence....
April and Erick were sitting on a couch. They were done checking the crime scene. They were now waiting for Selena Arison to arrive. She and her mother was busy in preparing his father's wake while her elder brother was busy managing their company.
June and Bryan were already interviewing some guards and helpers about what they saw or have observed during the incident. But unfortunately, they got nothing.
"CatsEye really worked meticulously. He never left any clue at all, no fingerprints. It is really difficult to know his true identity and until now Eagle does not have a lead.", April said as she read the information they have gathered in the crime scene and the reports of police officer kim.
"You are right. We didn't even know if catseye is a girl or a boy. Rose also reported to me that she couldn't find someone and anything suspicious in the CCTV footage." Erick was studying the card which the Assassin left near the body of his victim.
"Inspector Lee, what do you think CatsEye' gender, a boy or a girl?"
They were in deep thought when Selena arrived. "Sorry officers if I keep you waiting." Selena said apologetically. Her sweet voice echoed in the living room causing the two people to look towards her direction.
What catches Selena's attention is the handsome man sitting there. She was captivated by his manly beauty. She walked over in front of them. April and Erick stood up.
"I am Selena Arison, the youngest daughter of Jorge." she introduced herself while she extended her hands to Erick for a shakehands.
Erick gladly received her hand. "I am Detective Inspector Erick Lee, My team is the one who will handle your Father's case and lead the investigation."
"I am agent April Dominguez."
"Thank you for being here. I hope you can give justice for my father's unjust death." a mixture of sadness and hatred could be seen in Selena's beautiful eyes.
"We will do our best Miss Arison." Erick assured her.
Selena stared at him intently "Thank you Detective Lee."
"You improved a lot. You move very fast. I couldn't defeat you now." Phantom praised her.
"So accept it, you are just an old geezer now. Sign of aging Master." Elle smiled at him mockingly.
