The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective
Chapter 17 - 17: Found a Lead
The meeting continued in the conference room of XXX Crime Investigation Office.
"Are the results of autopsy of Peter Blake and Jorge Arison out?", Erick asked.
" Just like what the doctor said who examined Jorge Arison, he was poisoned. It was Batrachotixin also known as BTX. It is an extremely powerful neurotoxin. It is a steroidal akaloid produced by poison dart frogs, an endangered species native to Latin America. Just 0.2 grams are enough to kill a human. The toxin causes arrhythmias and ventricular fibrillation in heart muscles, resulting in a cardiovascular arrest and causes death within a minute.", Rose read the autopsy report submitted to her.
"On the other hand, Peter Blake obviously died because of the deep incised injury on his front neck caused by the dagger or in short cause of death was cut throat. I also got nothing suspicious with the CCTV footage." Rose added. Everyone sighed.
"As usual for the professional killer, Catseye left no marks and finger prints in the crime scene." April commented.
"How is your interview with the guests and people present that night? Have you find suspicious person." Jason followed up question.
"Nothing unusual. They were all saying that it was a lively banquet. Everyone was having fun. The security are very tights around the vicinity. They also wondered how the culprit was able to get inside the mansion. They are all shocked when they found out what happened that night." June shared to them the result of their investigation.
"I was wondering, if everyone are enjoying the party, why is it Jorge went to his room with Peter Blake? Are they having a business conversation? Why do it in the room?" Carl shared his thoughts.
" Oh right! I remember, some guest had mentioned that some little commotion happened. A waitress had tripped her ankle and accidentally poured down lady's drinks on Jorge suites making him leave and went upstairs to change his suites." Bryan said.
"Selena said to us also that her father told her in the phone that he got an upset stomach and was doing some business when she asked him why he is taking so long and didn't come down immediately after changing his suites. Maybe the business he was talking to is with Peter Blake. She said Jorge and Peter were friends," April commented as she connected her information to Bryan's statement.
"Oops... one of the guards said that the person they didn't check upon entering the mansion were Peter Blake and his bodyguard because they were already familiar with Peter." June added.
"Wait! There is something suspicious about that. Have you interview the waitress who spilled the wine in Jorge's suites? How about the bodyguard of Peter who came together with him, have you met him also?" Erick said immediately as he realized something was off with the information.
June and Bryan stared with one another then shook their head. " We haven't interviewed all of them yet especially those two." June was the one who answered. The conference room was enveloped with silence. Everyone was having a deep thought.
Suddenly Erick spoke again,"That's it. We found the clue! We have a lead now. Good job guys! We must meet this two persons and interrogate them." The mood in the conference room changed and became livelier upon hearing this. Finally, after so many days of being blind, they finally got some progress. It seemed like they were finally able to connect some dots and solving the puzzle little by little.
After a while, Bryan's phone rang. He excused himself to answer the call. Five minutes passed and Bryan came back to the conference room. He was rushing in and seemed like he got something important to tell them. Everyone focus their attention to Bryan who just came back in and look at him curiously.
"Chief new information just came in from Officer Kim! According to his assistant Peter was missing for two days. They were searching for him after he disappeared one night in his Club. They were surprised when they heard the news that Peter attended the Birthday Banquet of Selena Arison and was killed in the Mansion together with Jorge Arison." Bryan informed them. Everyone were stupefied upon hearing this.

Meanwhile another group were also talking about catching Catseye.
Black Shadow, James Arison and his right hand man were having conversation at the Skull Gang main headquarter.
"Boss we searched everywhere, including the areas near our warehouse but she was nowhere to be found." James'right hand man named Spike reported to them.
"I was impressed. How could she escape that far with those injuries. When she fled, there were just three possibilities I could come up with last night. First, with those injuries you might be able to catch her, second, if she was able to avoid you from catching her for hiding perfectly she might be dead right now because of severe blood loss and lastly if you could not catch her or could not seen her dead body therefore someone helped her." Black Shadow commented. "Since the first two statements did not happen then it must be the third one." he added.
"Gather our men and dispatch them. Tell them to search and find the nearest hospitals in the area and find out if there is a woman who was hospitalized with gun shot and stab wound last night. Report to me as soon as possible when you find her." James ordered to Spike.
"Copy boss." Spike left quickly to do the task.
"Do you think she will go to the hospital? What if she contacted her accomplice to save her?" Black Shadow asked him
"Just like you said, I think there were two possibilities, either her accomplice save her or a stranger save her and brought her to the nearest hospital. Remember, she was badly injured as you said. There's no hurt in trying to search in the hospitals. It wouldn't happen if you just did your job well in capturing her. She was already in your grasp but still she was able to slip away. Tsk Tsk Tsk." James said to him mockingly.
Black Shadow chuckled and smiled sheepishly "Haha! Sorry... Yeah I admit it was my fault. I was just a man mesmerized by a beauty in front of me. How could I not be distracted? I was really shocked. If I catch her again, I will make sure not to lose her again. If you would allow me, I want to tame that devil."
"What does she look like? Are you sure that what you have seen is a woman?" James frown with his reaction and asked him curiously.
"Yes she is definitely a woman, a beautiful but a dangerous one." Black Shadow smirked as he remember her face with those enchanting cold dark eyes.
"Are the results of autopsy of Peter Blake and Jorge Arison out?", Erick asked.
