"According to police reports after a thorough investigation and with the testimonies of all eyewitnesses on the night of the gruesome murder dubbed 'Jack the Ripper Junior', this was what probably happened on that fateful night.

"Outside Charlottesville that evening, about fifty kilometres off the west coast of the Jamesville, two brothers were planning on a robbery. The brothers were Phil and Carl, the former thirty-three and the latter, thirty-nine.

"Phil, who was the elder one amongst the two, wore a worn-out blue shirt and baggy trousers. He also had a hat that covered his eyes as well, especially when his head was lowered. He wore worn-out dirty shoes, which were a little small for him, and showed his two big toes outside his shoes. was roughly one hundred and sixty centimetres tall, and had dirty blond hair that was almost black with dirt. He had green eyes, they were the only beautiful things about him. Two of his upper teeth were gone, and the rest were brown. He had a cigarette in his mouth, one in his hand, and the pack in his pocket.

"Phil took a long drag of his cigarette whilst looking at his younger brother who was a head taller than him. Carl wore worn-out trousers and an equally rugged hoodie. He was more handsome than his brother. Maybe if he had been born on the other side of the city, he would have been a charismatic young master..."

"That is bull shit I'm putting this fucking tv off right now!-" Ryan shouted.

"There's no bullshit here just shut up let's watch-" my sister, Jane, also yelled.

"Shut the fuck u-!"

"Both of you, shut up!" Mrs Rebecca yelled.

"...Their city is Jamesville, which was the biggest city among the seven cities which surrounded Charllottesville in a perfect circle. On a map, they form a heptagonal circle with straight lines from each city to Charllottesville. This cluster of cities was called The Heptagon Cities. These lines were rivers that flowed from a lake in Charllottesville outward to each city. The lake is a Groundwater Drainage Lake, its source is underground. The lake took up one-fourth of Charllottesville, and the forests areas took one-half.

"Jamesville had a big university named Jamesville City University and two high schools. Jamesville was fairly richer than any other city in the Hexagon Cities.

"Although Jamesville's economy was higher than the rest of the eight cities, its poverty rate was also higher than the other cities. The rich people were as much as the poor people, if not less.

"The city was divided into two; half of it was a very filthy slum and the other half was shiny and bustling with expensive cars and pot-bellied men and caked
-with-makeup-faced women.
Because of this, the crime rate in the slums was very high whilst almost nonexistent in the urban area of the city.

"The city's police bureau was directly on the border of the two parts of the city. The main road was right in front of the police bureau, and facing the police bureau on the other side of the road was the slums.

"Because of this, many of the rule-breakers did not dare to commit their crimes in the urban area. Only the daring, do-or-die ones crossed to the rich parts of the city."

Or the ignorant and foolish ones.

These two brothers were part of the second group of criminals I was sure; the ignorant and foolish ones.

"Police cars were patrolling every part of the city, many in the urban areas and less in the slums. The rich part of Jamesville was always tight in security. The big men and women had their bodyguards, CCTV cameras both in plain sight and hidden, locks that required passwords, voice and face locks, and other sophisticated objects. This made stealing in this territory very hard".
