TRAP BY ILLUSION √ (EDITING)

02

LOUD MURMURS could be heard all over the places. The noise of chains, and guns that were being place on a metal table was very disturbing too. The officers were very busy discussing about the cases that they'll be handling for the whole month as their asigned task.

"Tsk, masyado naman yata tayong pinapahirapan nito?" Officer Dale stretched his arms and sip his coffee.

Napatitig naman sa kan'ya ang kasama niyang si Officer Scott, "Masyadong delikado ang trabaho na 'to, hindi lang basta-basta ang kriminal na hahanapin natin. This is giving me headache,"

Sabay na lamang silang napa iling at napatitig sa white board na nasa harapan nila, base sa mga ekspresyon nila ay hindi talaga sila natutuwa.

"I think we should take a rest? Ilang weeks na rin tayong nag aasikaso sa case na 'to," Mr Dale said,

"You have a point, but I think we need to resolve this first. Nababahala pa rin ako, six officers were dead because of this murder case. Ayoko pa mamatay pero mas ayoko rin naman na pabayaan nalang 'to." Mr Scott answered. They glanced at the board and slowly shook their heads as disappointment began to be shown on their faces.

The clues that were pinned on the white board weren't enough for them to solve everything. Officer Scott---the guy with a red brown hair throw the memo pad on the floor as frustration began to shows up on his body.

"Pota!"

He gritted his teeth and glared to the young lady who is handing a mug of tea, while blankly staring on the polaroids which was pinned on the white board.

"Uh, bata. Maaari mo bang sagutan itong mga tanong?" pag tanong ni Mr Dale habang nag lalakad papalapit sa dereksyon ng babae, may hawak siyang papel at inilapag niya ito sa mesa.

Kanina pa sila nag papakiramdaman, the lady has been acting blankly since she arrived. The officers got chills over their spines when they first saw her earlier. They thought that maybe she was into a traumatic incident, palagi nalang kasi itong naka yuko at tahimik lamang na naka-upo sa silya. By just mere looking on her face---she's so innocent to be a criminal. Hindi nila alam kung paano ito napag bintangan na mamamatay tao.

Well, let me tell you a story my child..

Six years ago, there was this unsolve case done by an anonymous killer. Thirteen guys were found dead every week, one more thing that makes it more mysterious are the way how the killer ended their lives. The killer obviously left a signs to the victims body, the body was dressed with a black tuxedo and underneath was a red polo shirt. It was paired with a black slacks and black shoes. The body was chained and the victims arms and feet were nailed. The victims really looked like a doll with its bloody dresses.

Ayon sa naganap na investigation, walang finger prints na nahanap sa damit na suot ng mga biktima o kahit sa ano mang gamit na andoon mismo sa crime scene.

One thing which caught their attention were the patterns left on the victims left wrists and neck, it was drawn using a sharp metal and its wound were too deep that it could kill the person instantly because of blood loss.

The case were left as a big mystery until now. Ginagawa rin naman ng mga authorities ang kaya nila but it's just that the killer is very difficult to pursuit, alam nilang masyado na itong sanay sa ginagawa at mukhang pinag planuhan na talaga ang mga bawat galaw niya.

Based on the same crime scene na na-investigate nila sa loob ng anim na taon ay may napapansin silang kaka-iba. May pagka pareho ang pag patay pero may mga parte na deretso lamang ang pag kaka-target nito sa biktima-unlike sa mga naunang pinatay ay kadalasan hindi nasuotan ng magagarang damit at ang iba pa ay halos hindi na makilala ang mukha dahil sa pa-iba ibang paraan ng pag patay niya. They're puzzled by how the killer playfully throws some tricks on them, they are very certain that the culprit was on his 30's or 40's, hindi naman kasi kapani-paniwala kung bata ang pumapatay-it's just so very mysterious and interesting, the culprit was indeed so creative.
