The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

"Eh! No way! That's impossible! If Catseye is really responsible for this incident, then how come they are still alive? They shouldn't be in the hospital right now; instead, they should be in the morgue." Bryan overreacted as he couldn't believe it.

Allen also nodded in agreement as he believed Bryan had a point. Even Allen was not convinced that Catseye would keep those two alive as she always made sure to kill her target. On the other hand, Officer Kim was rubbing his chin as he mulled over Bryan's statement.

"Hmm, I agree. However, those two are really certain about their statement. Furthermore, do you know what is more shocking? If we assumed that it was Catseye then base on their statements alone we can conclude, that she was not working alone at that time." Officer Kim shared with Bryan and Allen that made those two became more puzzled.

"What do you mean, Officer Kim? What did they tell you?" Bryan asked him quizically. 

"They were blindfolded so they did not see the face of those culprits who kidnapped them. But they heard their voices, voices of a woman and a man. And according to them, they hired men. Those men were the ones who s.e.x.u.a.lly assaulted and abused them in that house." Officer Kim continued to feed them information.

"That's not how Catseye work, letting other men torture her prey. She even surrendered them to the police. Oh, what's happening in the world? Is Catseye's mind also changing because of Climate Change?" Bryan cracked some jokes as he could not still believe it.

Allen sighed deeply in frustration. Things were getting more complicated. Catseye's case was really a big mystery for them, a very complicated puzzle to solve. She was becoming more unpredictable nowadays.

"Both Carlo and Diego heard that the culprits mentioned to them that they were the ones who killed Jefferson Gong. When I asked them about the possible motive why those people did that to them, they said they have no idea at all. But it seems like they are hiding something and they refused to talk." Officer Kim frowned as he remembered his interrogation with them.

Carlo Vello and Diego de Dios refused to tell them the true motive of why they were captured and tortured by those people. For the reason that, all the members of the gang before had sworn not to talk about what happened sixteen years ago. No one should know that they were responsible for killing the former head of Phoenix Special Task Force, Agent Cedrick Falcon, and his family.

Both of them would be imprisoned not because of their past crime but because of their current crimes. So they both knew from the beginning that they should not mention that incident 16 years ago to the police and just buried the past. And now, they were wondering if they should warn the other gang members who were involved in that crime.

Their experience with them was really frightening to the extent that they wished those men just killed them directly instead of torturing them further. They almost had a mental breakdown as several men toyed them and harassed them s.e.x.u.a.lly. The fear was already imprinted in their mind. They remembered what happened 16 years ago when they mercilessly ravished the girl named Marites. They knew it was their punishment for that crime.

"If we think about it, the only thing that we can relate this incident to Catseye is the mentioning of Jefferson Gong's death. Catseye did not leave any evidence like her death card." Allen said after analyzing all the details that Officer Kim gave to them.

"Well, probably Catseye did not leave her death card since She Did Not Kill Those Two Men," Bryan emphasized his last seven words.

Allen was taken aback after hearing it while Officer Kim chuckled because of Bryan's remarks. Allen scratched the back of his head. Sometimes Bryan was just being simple-minded but his simple comment made sense.

"Oh, there is one more thing. In Jefferson Gong's case, Catseye gave us pieces of evidence regarding his illegal activities, same with Vello and De Dios, those people revealed to the police authorities as well as the media the illegal activities done by the two of them." Allen shared his thoughts with them.

"Eh… so it is possible that the anonymous tips I received before regarding Vello's spa prostitution and women trafficking case came from Catseye? Oh men, how come Catseye knew my cellphone number? Did she really investigate me? She never forget our confrontation! She… she holds a grudge against me since I called her ugly before!" Bryan's eyes widened because of that realization. He was in a panic. 

Allen and Officer Kim exchanged glances with one another as they gave Bryan a weird look. Soon after, peals of laughter erupted as both Officer Kim and Allen could not hold their laughter.

"Hey, why are you laughing? Nothing is funny. Catseye knew my f*cking personal cellphone number! How is that possible? I am really sure she conducted a thorough investigation of me." Bryan exclaimed with his frightened expression.

"Hey Men, you are just overthinking. Catseye is not that shallow. If she really holds a grudge against you then you shouldn't be standing in front of us, you should have been buried six feet below the ground a long time ago." Allen also used Bryan's reasoning a while ago to calm him down.

"That's true. I agree with agent Allen." Officer Kim let out a soft chuckle as he patted Bryan's shoulder to assure him. Bryan heaved a sigh of relief after that.

"But let's not disregard these assumptions. It might be true. Catseye is acting differently nowadays. Maybe she was doing this to confuse us more. And guess what, she succeeded. I am becoming more confused because of her actions." Allen said to them seriously.

"Is she changing for good? Her action nowadays is not that brutal compared to before. Plus, she is targeting bad people." Bryan blurted out.

The three men fell into silence for several minutes, consumed by their own thoughts. Racking their brain of the possible ideas to connect the dots, but to their disappointment, they could not think well.

"Urgh! I don't want to think anymore. This is just giving me a headache. Since Chief Lee will be coming back to work tomorrow, I will leave the thinking to him. Besides, he is more intelligent than me. Hahaha. Why should I tire myself from thinking too much if Chief Lee could do this for me? Am I right?" Bryan said to them cheerfully.

Allen just shook his head helplessly while looking at Bryan who was laughing hard as if he had won a jackpot.

"Anyway, if you want to interrogate Diego and Carlo and talk to them personally, I can arrange it for you." Officer Kim offered them a hand.

"Thank you, Officer Kim. We will appreciate it if you will do that." Allen said as he thanked him in advance.

"No need to mention it. I am also doing my job. Besides, it is our duty to help each other in order to solve the cases. I know you will do the same." Officer Kim said to them.

The three of them soon left the precinct as they headed to the hospital where Carlo Vello and Diego de Dios were confined.
