Innocent
?Minutes after they found David Cooper's body, Nyla received a call. It was him, but what did he want to say? After all, he got what he wanted in the cruellest way possible. The body was exposed as if he wanted the world to see his work. He gained the attention he craved so dearly. But Nyla had one question remaining, which was soon going to be answered. That question was why David Cooper? What was a drug dealer's connection to a church?
As Nyla picked up the call, she was left in mear confusion. "How was it?" He said, "What do you want to say, bastard" Nyla replied. "Do you know how much fun I had while killing him?" He said as a smirk appeared on his face. "You must be thinking why I killed him, right?" He said, "I had been keeping an eye on him, but I saw something quite ironic that day. David walked into a church, he was repenting against his crimes. He even wanted to come clean and tell everything to the police. he disgusted me." He said. "If he was going to come clean, why did you kill him?" Nyla said, confused. A whole new plot was about to be discovered. "You see, I dislike people who don't play their part...so I just killed him," He said laughing, as the call disconnected. "What?" Nyla said, there was more to this psychopath that they didn't know yet.
"Nyla!" Bruce called out to her, "Did they find anything?" She asked. "Yes, it's not pleasant tho," Bruce replied as he showed Nyla hearing aids. It could only mean one thing. Nyla had a feeling that things were about to get more terrifying, and she had to catch him before that took place.
Nyla opened her phone and saw a text, she had to leave. "we'll take care of it, don't worry" Bruce said, as they continued with the investigation. While Nyla took a taxi to the location, it was a restaurant.
"Nyla, it has been a while" said the chief commissioner, "How have you been?" Nyla replied with a subtle smile. At the time when Nyla's parents were murdered, the chief commissioner took great care of Nyla, he was the one who caught the serial killer. "Are u stressed?" He asked, "This one's a tough one" she replied. "That's why I assigned you to this case," The commissioner said. "But you don't have much time, he has to be caught very soon. If you fail, we might have to give this case to another unit." The commissioner said. "Yes, I know," Nyla replied. "Your team has one less member. Right?" He asked, "Yes, ur right" Nyla replied. "Ah, I have someone I'd like you to meet." The commissioner said, "It's my son, I'm assigning him to your team as a member" the commissioner said.as he entered the room. Reaching his hand out, he said
"We meet again, Nyla"
Nyla stared in confusion, "Henry?"
