It's already Friday morning and the investigation is still ongoing. Unfortunately, the police department still has no lead on where the show was held and, most importantly, no contestant's relative called or came to report them missing or to cooperate with the case.
Not only that, the internet also went wild since the second challenge is about to start. Everyone shared their theory about the 'Reality Show'; some of them thought that it was held on another planet, while some of them thought that it was just an animation made by a professional 3D animator. There is also a person who thought that 'The Reality Show' was pre-recorded and everyone in the show except for the one person was already dead, but of course everyone laughed at her theory and claimed that the commenter was just a nine-year-old kid with a wild imagination.
Detective Kathy, who is still at her office table, searches on the internet for information about the show, but most of the information that is shown is fake. She finally gives in as she takes a sip from her cup of coffee, takes a big stretch and yawns, then proceeds to continue searching on the internet. But this time, as she continued to scroll down the internet, she immediately saw someone made a reddit thread about the host of "The Reality Show" and some important information about him.
Guys, I know the name of the host. His name is Keith Patterson, and he is one of the richest criminals in the entire world. He was known for his manipulation of his victims by offering them money, but, of course, with one condition, which was that they must kill the specific person, and that specific person is the love of their life. Not a parent or relative, but their love partner in life. But most of them decided to commit suicide a few years after they received their money prize. Most of the victims are greedy or have financial problems. I know you guys are not going to believe me because he's wearing the black mask, but trust me, that's a fact. Now share this information until the police may notice this.
Detective Kathy googled the name of the host straight away after she read the thread. She slowly read the information that might help in the investigation.
Keith Patterson was known for manipulating victims by offering a huge amount of money. Most of his rewards are between a million and thirty million dollars, and in order to receive this huge money prize, the victims must kill their love partner, their husband or their boyfriend. Of course, most of the victims successfully completed their tasks, but unfortunately, after a couple of years, they decided to commit suicide with an 'omega' logo in their right hand, written with a black pen. Nobody knows the reason behind it since none of them decided not to write a suicide note. But most importantly, nobody knows how Keith Patterson managed to get that huge amount of money. He is still wanted in the world, but nobody knows where he is or when he will ever manipulate a victim again.
"Jeff!" She immediately yells to her best friend, who is currently sleeping at his office desk. "What the fuck, did you fall asleep in the middle of work again?"
"Huh?" Jeff suddenly wakes up and stretches his arm. "Sorry about that. What is it again?"
"I think I finally found the lead in this case." Kathy said so confidently. "And you're going to love it."
OOO
Do you think this is the host of the 'Reality Show'? Tell me, how did you manage to get that information? " The police chief asks Kathy and Jeff
Well, the way he manipulates his victims is almost the same way the host convinces them to join his little show. Not only that, the price of the show is thirty million dollars, which is the manipulator's highest price that he offers to his previous victim, except the victim must kill their love partner. Maybe we can finally solve the case. " Kathy carefully explains her theory. "We must not focus on the contestant first; we must find the host first in order to rescue the contestant." This is my theory, sir.
For some reason, the police chief burst out laughing for a couple of seconds. He takes a bite from his donut before he responds. "Ok, let me guess. You read that reddit thread that is currently trending throughout the internet and claimed it as yours. First of all, that reddit user must be an internet troll, plus how can you identify the host since he is wearing a black mask which covers his face? The only thing visible is his facial hair and his slim body. Tell me, Detective Kathy. How sure are you that the host of the show and the famous manipulator are the same person? " Kathy immediately fell silent as soon as she noticed that the police chief was right. No one can immediately know the host of the show unless you are the contestant or you have seen his face before.
"I umm, you are right, sir." I just saw it and I added some information about it. I thought that-"
That it might help in our investigation? You don't even have solid proof to show, and did you notice that the reddit user didn't even present decisive evidence that proves that the show host and the famous manipulator are the same person? Now if you have any real concrete evidence to prove your facts, bring it to me at once. Dismissed! "
Kathy and Jeff left the room and immediately went back to their office desk.
Kathy, are you one hundred percent sure about your 'theory' you are talking about?" Jeff suddenly asks her.
"I am one hundred percent sure, but because of that stupid mask, my facts seem to be impossible." Kathy responded.
"Maybe because you are one of the contestants." Kathy immediately looked at him as soon as he said it. I'm just kidding. I mean, If you are one of the contestants, you shouldn't be here. "
"Yeah yeah, whatever." Kathy said as she went back to her searching.
Today is the second challenge, and the contestants are already prepared for their next game. Nobody knows what they are going to play for this week, and most importantly, nobody knows who's going to die today. This time they are all in the huge mansion, which has been abandoned for a long time. Suddenly, the speaker made an irritating noise, then proceeded to make an announcement."For our next game, we are going to play hide and seek. All of you must hide for sixty seconds before the seeker starts to find one of you. "Good luck." Then the timer starts to count down.Everyone split up to find the best hiding spot. Humero immediately went to the dining area and hid inside the cabinet. Inside of it was a ton of cobwebs and expired detergents, which it had not used for so long. Max decided to stay in the living room and hide in the human-sized drawer. He was completely fit in the cabinet box as he pushed slowly in order to close the cabinet box.Ayat quickly ran up to the bathroom, but un
It’s already eight o’clock in the morning and the church was already full during the first mass and the Father started his preaching. Detective Kathy listened carefully as the priest preached. "Two innocent contestants!" The priest yelled at his mic. "They died because of the money. That money controls those contestants who are deeply in financial trouble. This is all the devil's work. He knows our weakness and he enjoys watching those remaining contestants die one by one. Now brothers and sisters, don’t let that money control you and your greediness. May those souls rest in peace. " Detective Kathy impressed the preach as they stood and recited the apostle’s creed. As the mass ended, Detective Kathy went to the priest and kissed his right hand, which in their tradition, was a way to show respect to the elders. The priest smiled as he put his right hand and whispered a prayer to her. As soon as she left, a bunch of journalists immediately ran onward to her and started asking her ques
"Fuck!" Jaxx yells in anger as he throws one of the chairs against the wall. Everybody was still in shock from the second challenge they played. "Two of us are already dead and we are still doing nothing to prevent it." Out of nowhere, he suddenly grabs Katherine's collar. "It's been a week. Did you manage to get help from the outside?" "I tried, but they refused to believe me." I tried my best to explain, but they kept saying that I'm lying. " Katherine responded, so Jaxx let her go and tried his best to calm down. There's an awkward silence in the living room until Jaxx finally speaks up again. "You know what, give me that phone and walkie-talkie, now!" Jaxx demands that Katherine quickly obey him. As soon as he receives the phone and walkie-talkie, he quickly calls the police department. Fortunately, someone answered the call. "Hello, Police Department." "Hello, we are currently in a holdup situation and two of us have already been killed by the hostager. Please track us down. T
Ever since the world discovered that one of the contestants was actually Detective Kathy's long lost twin sister, leaving a house has become one of her hardest things to do. Every time she leaves the house, there are a bunch of journalists waiting for her to get an interview. Luckily, her best friend, Jeff, was always there to give her a ride to the police department. But despite that, there are still journalists that manage to get inside of the Police Department just to get an interview with Detective Kathy. Especially if they've been thrown out of the Police Department, they manage to wait outside until Kathy and Jeff leave the Department, which causes the journalists to quickly run toward them, leaving them no choice but to run to Jeff’s car and drive away as quickly as they can. Until Chief Police decided to put on a live press conference where a bunch of journalists were finally able to ask anything about deadly show related events, including Detective Kathy’s lost twin sister, Ka
It's already eight o'clock in the evening and everyone is having supper. Nobody wants to talk to each other; no chit-chat, only eating. Tomorrow is the third challenge, and one of them is going to die. Nobody knows what the challenge is and who's going to die.Max once tried to talk to everyone, but he was too shy. He felt someone touch his left shoulder, so he looked to his left and it was Calvin."I noticed you wanted to say something. Go on, say something. " Calvin tried to convince him to say what was on his mind. Max took a deep breath before he stood up, causing everyone to stop what they were doing and look at him.I want to quit! I can't stand this! " He yelled as he took a few breaths. The dining room was silent, and everyone gave him the silent treatment."Max." Finally, someone speaks up, and it's Jaxx. "I have been trying to contact the police. Even Katherine attempted multiple times, but with no luck. Those stupid fucking police don't even want to listen to us. The justic
It's already two thirty in the morning and the presence of the streets is street lights together with very hard rain. Kathy silently walked down the sidewalk as she felt every raindrop hit her body as she thought deeply about the case. They did their best to find the lead of the show, but the result was always a dead end. She starts overworking just to solve the case, as she doesn't want to leave the case unsolved. She looked up as she noticed the raid drop stopped hitting her body and saw the black umbrella."You should sleep right now." She recognized that the voice belonged to Jeff, her partner."Same to you!" Kathy responded as she looked into his eyes. "What are you doing here?"Well, my wife and I had a heated argument, just like a married couple, and she decided to kick my ass out of my own house. She just got angry because I haven't spent my time with my family, even though I spend most of my nights taking care of my daughter, who has special needs. Anyway, what are you doing
"So nobody wants to admit it? I guess nobody will get thirty million dollars. "Kathy silently stood herself up as the host was about to shoot one of the contestants. She felt guilty about this. She was about to confess when one of the contestants yelled from the top of his lungs."It was me! I was the one who bought it! " It was Max Moyer.She wants to speak up. She wants to defend him and tell the host he's lying through his teeth, but her body refuses to do anything to defend him. The host slowly claps his hands as he laughs insanely. "Well, you know, bringing any digital communication is strictly prohibited. " You are now eliminated from this show." The host declared his defeat as he offered his hand for a shake. Max accepted his hand and slowly walked away. As soon as he took his tenth step, the host started violently shooting his body.Kathy watches Max's body getting shot multiple times as her tears slowly start to form and fall on her cheeks.He's dead. He was dead because of
It's been three weeks since the show was introduced to the world. Three contestants died at the same time, on the same day, at the same place. The sound of frustrated policemen and policewomen filled the police station as they tried to find the host of the show, but they always led them to a dead end. Not only that, Kathy was nowhere to be seen. The Police Chief slowly takes a sip of fancy as he looks at the picture of his only granddaughter, who looks exactly like one of the contestants. It's been a year since the last time he spoke to her. And ever since that day, he has neglected his youngest daughter."I don't want to get married yet!" He heard the voice of his granddaughter in his head. He could still feel her anger to this day. He remembers how she went to her room and didn't leave for a couple of days. Until one day, he decided to break into her room and saw nothing but an open window and a letter on her study table.As soon as he finished his third glass of wine, he decided to
