Jack, who had been working all night, didn’t wake up until late that night.
There were several more news notifications on his phone.
One of them was about the homeless man again.
But this time, it wasn’t declared as torture—it was stated to have been murder!
—
“The body of a homeless man whose blood has been drained has appeared in the hotel. Multiple organs have been lost!”
—
Jack casually clicked on the news. There were also a few graphic photos.
Even though the photos were blurred, Jack could still smell the blood and feel the miserable state of the homeless man’s death from the photos.
He flipped through a few photos.
“Huh?”
Jack frowned. He noticed that there was a scar on the part of the homeless man’s body, and it was very similar to the scar on the body of the homeless man who was reported to have been abused by the homeless man just the previous day.
He looked at the news release again.
—
“Loss of Multiple Organs.”
—
The homeless man that no one paid attention to.
His body’s blood was drained.
There were many needle marks.
There were many small but deep wounds on the body.
The wounds were neat.
There were penetrating wounds.
“Penetrating wounds?” Jack said in a low voice.
He recalled the woman’s red high heels in the incident of the homeless man’s abuse. Was it a coincidence? Could it be more than that?
Jack’s gaze gradually turned cold, with a hint of excitement in it.
A day later, the New York police’s investigation wasn’t making any significant progress. There was no case of a missing homeless man reported in the entire New York City, and no one would care about the disappearance of a homeless man. Some experts speculated that the homeless man could not stand his miserable life and decided to commit suicide in a hotel. However, this speculation was immediately attacked crazily. No one could stand the idea of a homeless man pulling out all his organs and draining his own blood. The investigation fell into a fog.
At this time, on the side of Task Force Zero, all the members put down all their honor and pride and started over. From zero, they were ready to fight the Death Inquisitor to the end.
After two days, all the content and news about the Death Inquisitor, the live broadcast of the death, and so on were all deleted from the Internet. Some people would post about it one minute, and the next minute, they would be deleted.
Under the joint attack of Task Force Zero and the higher-ups, the news about the Death Inquisitor began to fade from online platforms.
However, this could not stop people’s enthusiasm. Although there was no news about the Death Inquisitor on the public platform, the Death Inquisitor was still the most discussed topic in private group chats.
“Do you think the Death Inquisitor will take action on the case of the homeless man’s corpse?” Judy asked casually while eating her doughnut.
Monica was also interested. She analyzed for a while and said, “He is a very confident criminal with a tendency to invade. Based on my understanding of his personality, he will intervene in such an extremely brutal case! However, he must know who the murderer is!”
Ross nodded and said, “With the intelligence of the Death Inquisitor, perhaps he has already taken the lead in the police station that is investigating this case. Maybe? No. That’s for sure! He must have already known who the murderer is! Unfortunately, we are not in charge of this case. Otherwise, we can compete again this time!”
Anthony said, “If the Death Inquisitor makes a move, this case will be under our control.”
“If we wait for him to make a move, we will probably have to watch the live broadcast here,” Bowman added.
Ross nodded and sighed. “Although that’s what we said, we can’t lose confidence. Even if the Death Judge is difficult to deal with, we have to find a way to catch him.”
The police station was abuzz with the police force’s discussions.
Meanwhile, in front of the computer in a dark house, the screen was emitting a weak light that reflected the woman in front of it.
Her slender long legs were wearing black silk, which was very seductive. The woman had a cigarette between her slender fingers. She placed her beautiful legs on the table and kept shaking them.
“Gardner, do you have a target tonight?”
“What’s wrong? Do you need money so badly?”
The woman fiddled with the red high heels on her feet and said resentfully, “Am I doing this for money? My high heels aren’t even bright anymore.”
“The police are too strict these days. You know that. Just bear with it. If you can’t, just find a homeless person. Nobody cares about them anyway.”
“Will it be the same? Just kicking them a few feet is not enough. If I don’t see too much blood, it’s not exciting! Gardner, you’re the best. Can’t you do something about it? Besides, I did it so covertly. I didn’t leave any evidence behind, and they’re just a bunch of useless cops trying to catch me.”
“The police are all useless, but isn’t there a Death Inquisitor? It’s better to be more careful these days!”
“Gardner, just tell me if you have one. Can’t you think of a way?”
“Why? Are you still angry?”
“How would I dare to be angry with you, Gardner? If you want to play with me, I can play with you. My high heels aren’t bright anymore, but I have to kneel down and beg you.”
The man laughed and said, “You little slut. Tomorrow. Wait until we find a suitable target.”
The woman smiled and said, “Okay then. I’ll wait for your news. When the time comes, you can play with whatever you want.”
The woman hung up the phone and heard a click. It sounded like the door was ringing.
“Who is it?”
The woman put her long legs down from the table and stared at the door. She frowned and coldly said, “Huh? Why is the light in the bathroom on? Didn’t I turn it off? Do I remember correctly?”
The woman got up and walked over. She pushed open the closed door of the bathroom. A familiar smell stimulated her nerves.
It was the faint smell of blood!
“Blood?” she muttered.
The woman was a little excited by the smell of blood.
But the next second, the excitement in her heart turned into fear.
The toilet was filled with red blood, and there was a black card floating on it. The words on the card were written in blood.

“How is this possible? The police can’t even find me! How did you find me!!
She stood there in shock. “It’s over! It’s over! What day is it today!”
When Adalind suddenly remembered that it was April 25, her heart suddenly contracted, and she felt a fear that she had never felt before. She widened her eyes in fear. The moment she turned her head, she suddenly saw her own reflection in the mirror. Her pale face was shocking. Her eyes had completely lost focus. They looked like two big holes, just like that of an evil ghost.
“Ah!” Adalind screamed, turned around, and pushed the door open. She wanted to run out of the house like crazy.
But just as she was about to escape from her house, her neck felt like it was being pricked by needles. She felt a slight pain, and then she lost consciousness.
Bzzt bzzt bzzt.
On the online live broadcast platform, a live broadcast room filled with snow suddenly appeared.
“Hello, everyone. I am your host, the Death Judge. Welcome to today’s live broadcast of the execution.”
