Amelia couldn't shake off the feeling that she had stumbled into something sinister. The message on the wall echoed in her mind, hinting at a darkness that lurked beneath Veron's surface.

Determined to uncover the truth, Amelia began to dig into Veron's past, scouring the town for any information she could find. She talked to locals, pored over old records, and even snuck into the local police station to access their files.

And then, she found it - a mention of a decade-old case, a string of brutal murders that had left the town reeling. The killer had never been caught, but the description of the suspect sent a chill down Amelia's spine: tall, blonde hair, piercing blue eyes.

Veron's eyes.

Amelia's mind reeled as she tried to process the information. Could it be true? Was Veron a cold-blooded killer?

As she delved deeper into the case files, Amelia discovered a cryptic note that made her blood run cold: "The devil's in the shadows, waiting to claim him."

The same message she had seen in the warehouse.

Suddenly, the pieces fell into place. Veron wasn't just a suspect - he was the key to unlocking a dark conspiracy that went far beyond a simple murder case.
