Chapter 3 - Plan of Hoodwinking

"Sir we just received a message saying the killer wants to get caught ", said Leiro being happy." Why would the killer want to get caught himself?", said Rolith itching his eyebrows."

"Are you trying to say it's a distraction sir?"." It might be let's see what happens", said Rolith crossing both of his hands."The killer gave us a location for sur​ren​der​ing sir"."Ok, let's go and see what awaits for us, said Rolith being absorbed in deep thoughts.

At the destined time of surrendering the police force was waiting for the killer to surrender.The location was inside a building in the parking lot.A black Lamborghini drove inside and parked in front of the police vehicles.The headlights of the Lamborghini was on and the door opened.A man with a mask was in sight.The man was walking towards the police officials holding his hands high.

Upon receiving the order the officer went closer to the man pointing his gun at him.After coming closer the officer handcuffed the man and took him captive on a special police force vehicle.Everybody was happy that the killer was arrested.

Before taking the man to his locker his mask was taken off and a detective was assigned to interrogate him.The detective came outside of the room after an hour and reported that the man admitted that he committed the murders.

Rolith was not quite in agreement with the detective, he went inside to interrogate the man taking permission.

"It's a rough world isn't it?", asked Rolith sitting on the chair."Yes,it is but harder than killing someone"." Do you smoke?", asked Rolith as he took out a cigar from his pocket."No, I don't", said the man looking elsewhere."Well that's bad,I was hoping to have a heart to heart with you while smoking", said Rolith with disappointment.

"I already testified that I killed both of those men, what else is there to discuss", asked the man.Rolith took out his profile and saw every detail about the man." Your name is Ash, you were brought up in a small house for orphans then where did all this money come from?", asked Rolith as he was staring intensely.

"I guess I worked super hard", said Ash." What kind of work did exactly do which was super hard?", asked Rolith looking at Ash eye to eye."Why you wanna be rich like me?", asked Ash smirking."To be clear I know that you're not the real killer"."Why do you think that?", asked Ash staring without winking.

"It's quite a lucid fact because the killer smokes a high-quality cigarette and I found it on the dustbin of the road where the murder took place", said Rolith with a deep voice."I'm impressed that you found out that the killers a smoker but why do you think I'll tell you about the killer?", asked Ash loudly.

"Because I know the killer told you to tell anyone all about him who can figure certain aspects of him"." I'm starting to like you more Mr. Rolith", said Ash as he looked at the nameplate.

Times up!!

"Looks like you're gonna have to wait a bit longer to know about the murderer Mr. Rolith"."Oh don't worry it won't take long", said Rolith as he was stepping outside the room.

" What did he say sir?"."Nothing in particular but I can tell you one thing the real killer is still on the hunt"."What are going to do now?"." Let's check on the details again".

Rolith and Leiro were checking the details but nothing came up."Are you going to interrogate him again sir?"."Of course, he is not the killer we are looking for", said Rolith staring at the papers in his hands.

Everybody in the office left but Rolith was still on his desk carefully going through all the details of the murders.

The next day, Rolith went to talk with Ash once more."Oh, your back Mr. Rolith"."Yup, I'm back and it's about time you started to spill the beans"."That's no fun if I tell you,I thought you were smart enough to figure it out"."I'm sorry that I couldn't meet your expectations but I found some solid clues".

"I'm going to tell you but nothing should get out of this room cause a lot of your coworkers are sold out by my friend aka the killer your searching for"." Why are they going to kill you if they find out?", asked Rolith with a slightly confused look."No, they will kill you and close your case as nothing happened"."Are higher-ups also involved?"."There's no doubt about it".

"But why are you willing to tell me?"." I want you to save him"."Is someone after his life?"."No, he's after someone and I want you to stop him from doing that"."Ok, provide me with every bit of details and I'll do my utmost to stop him".

"It all started when I received a paper when we were taken to an amusement park by the members of the orphanage, I was riding on the rollercoaster and suddenly a piece of paper flew and it got stuck on my face"." Was there glue on the paper?"."No, I don't remember if there was glue or not"."Ok, carry on".

"After the rollercoaster ride ended I took the paper off my face and read it, there was something written about a game show where you can win 10 billion dollars hold by WIC company".

" Do you know the full meaning?"."Yup, it's "Wife Investment Company"." What kind of a name is that?".

"Well, money is like a man's wife, no matter how much you hate it or love it, it always helps you as long as you have it"." What kind of games did you play?"."It was life and death games which were seen by different rich people of the world".

"The networks of the company are deep-rooted and many people are working under the company to uphold the game to the worldwide investors".

Times up!!

"Aaaah! Not again."

"I guess till next time".

"Did you get any clue or lead from Ash sir?."

"No, not yet but I'm hoping to get it sooner or later".

Rolith kept the details of the game hidden from Leiro to prevent endangering his life.
