SERIAL KILLER
CHAPTER 3
Charles Pov:
Two people were
murdered within
48 hours, this case is
getting
creepy.
“What’s wrong
Charles?.” Samuel
ask as he noticed
the look on my
face.
I sighed. “The
inspector just
called, they found a
body in
Ikorodu similar to the
case we are
investigating now, the
woman
was found dead on
the road and
her eyes were
plucked out, she
was shot on the
head.”
“Oh My God!!!.”
Samuel gasp in
shock.
“This case is getting
out of
hand.” Kate said.
“Guys we are going
to Lagos to
check this body.” I
said.
“Are we going to
abandon this
case we are on?.”
Samuel ask.
“Since it’s similar to
the case we
are working on we
should check it
out, maybe we can
get some
clues that might help
us and I
also need to know if
the person
killed is related to the
Adekoya’s.”
“Ok when do we
leave?.” Samuel
ask
“Right now.”
We finally got to
where Inspector
directed us in Ikorodu
and the
body was still lying
on the floor,
two of her eyes were
missing and
the blood has
already dry to the
side of her head.
There was lot of
crowds trying to
catch a glimpse of
the dead body.
Kate took some few
pictures of
the body, I collect her
blood
sample for test in the
lab.
Samuel pulled out a
handkerchief
from her purse,
something was
written in blood on
the
handkerchief.
“See if you can read
what’s
written on this
handkerchief.”
Samuel hand it over
to me.
I looked at it closely
and slowly
read our the word,
Rest In
Perfect Peace Rita
Adekoya.
The Adekoya’s are
haunted, if
this woman is related
to the
Adekoya which
means the Killer is
after the Adekoya’s.
“Our Serial killer is
after the
Adekoya’s, so now
we should
have the mindset that
we are
going to have to
protect the
Adekoya’s.”
Samuel nodded in
understanding.
“But most of them are
outside of
the country.”
“I think those ones
are safe,
listen I need to
interrogate Mr
Adekoya as soon as
we are
through with the
Autopsy.”
“Ok sure thing bro.”
The ambulance
arrived and
hoisted the body into
it, I
check.my wristwatch
which says
06:34, it was already
getting late,
the killer is around
here, moving
freely, searching for
his next
Victim, but until we
have a proof
we will be able to nail
him to a
spot.
I finally got to the
Autopsy and
we started
immediately.
Autopsy begins
“My premetarily test
state that
our victim died
between
12:23-12:47.”
“Felix how possible is
it that our
Serial killer is one?.” I
ask
thoughtfully.
“The gardener died
was killed
yesterday at 09:23
by the killer,
the same killer killed
Rita
Adekoya around
12:23, the killer
is sure doing a fast
job.”
“Hmmm, I think I know
who he’s
going for next.”
I said.
“Who do you think?.”
Felix ask
curiously.
” Somebody who
works in the
Adekoya’s residence,
he’s
following a pattern in
those he’s
killing…….and I want to
follow
that pattern.”
“Charles, it’s under
maybe if he’s
going to go for a
worker this
time, he’s a
psychopath and a
lunatic, he deprive
pleasure from
killing.”
I turn to Samuel. “Is
Mr Adekoya
already in the Police
HQ?.”
“He arrived there as
soon as I
told him and he was
crying
because the woman
that was
killed was his sister.”
“Ok please help me
get the list of
the Adekoya’s, both
the one
living abroad.”
I turn to Felix.
“Thanks alot bro I
will take my leave
now.
Autopsy ends
I got to the Police HQ
to
interrogate Mr
Adekoya, he was
already in the IR
(Interrogation
room).
” Good day
Mr.Adekoya, I know
this is pretty hard for
you but
please just get ahold
of yourself,
I’m assuring u dat we
will find this
hideous killer.”
He wiped away the
tears from his
eyes.
“Are you ready?.” I
asked.
“Yes.”
INTERROGATION
BEGINS
CHARLES: Where
were you around
12:32 pm when the
victim died?.
MR ADEKOYA: I was
at home
trying to get some
few things
because I will join my
family in
Lagos.
CHARLES:Do you
realize that your
family is being
haunted by this
Serial killer.
MR ADEKOYA: Yeah
CHARLES:Can you
tell me the
reason for this?
He’s probably after
something or
he’s planning revenge
on what
one of your relatives
did to him.
MR ADEKOYA:I
seriously don’t
know detective, I……I’m
stressed
out
CHARLES:ok you
have been
through a lot today,
you can go
but please if you
remember
anything that can be
useful in
this case,.let me know
MR ADEKOYA: Sure
detective
INTERROGATION
ENDS
Mr Adekoya is hiding
something
and I must find out, I
know how
to get my answer but
it’s quite
difficult.
I pull out my phone
and dial
Kate’s number.
“What do you find
during the
test?.”
“Nothing much, but
there is a
word on the
handkerchief you did
not read, it was
imprinted there:
Next- Sophia.
“Are you sure?.”
” 100% sure.”
“Then we have to
find this
Sophia, I will call you
later.”
I hung up and dial Mr
Adekoya’s
number.
“Hello sir please
where does
Sophia Adekoya
lives?.”
“She lives in
Manchester in
England.”
D--n it, it’s gonna
take long to
get to England, I need
to call the
forces in England to
protect her.
“Ok thank you.”
Just as I hung up my
phone
started ringing, it was
Inspector
calling, my heart
started racing
faster as I received
the call.
“Sorry to tell you this
Charles but
there was a call from
England,
Sophia was found
dead in her
bathroom, her eyes
plucked out
and……..”
“She was shot in the
head.” I
completed.
That instant I realise
the Serial
Killer is one step
ahead of
us…….one step ahead.

Charles Pov:
I sigh in exasperation.
Simon dead, Rita dead
and now Sophia is
gone.
This is the most
trilling case I have
ever investigated
since I join the FBI.
Most of the case I
have investigated
started badly but
ends on a smooth
runs, but with the
look of things this
case will be very
trivial and difficult.
My phone started and
I saw its was Samuel
calling.
“Hello Charles get a
biro and piece of
paper I’m about to
call out the
Adekoya’s, both the
ones living in
abroad.”
I quickly pull out a
biro and piece of
paper ready to jot
down.( U can join me
readers).
“Ok Sam I’m ready.”

“That’s all bro.” He
said.
The Adekoya’s are
much, and most of
them live abroad, we
need alert everyone
of them.
“Wow thanks alot bro,
this will help alot.”
“Oh I forgot to
include Mr Adekoya.”
“Never mind bro he’s
my key of getting the
serial killer.”
“You think he knows
something?.”
“Let’s say its a
maybe but we have
to investigate deeper
into this case.”
“Ok bro it’s already
late go home and
take a rest.” I
checked my watch
which says 09:02.
Geez I was Soo
engrossed in this
case I did not realize
it was already late.
I have house in
Badagry where my
wife and children
lives, they are going
to be happy to see
me.
“Ok bro thanks alot,
tomorrow we are
leaving for England,
Sophia Adekoya was
found dead in her
bathroom.”
“Ok bro goodnight, till
tomorrow then.”
I hung up and got up,
grab my car keys,
switch off the light in
my office and slip
out of the building.
I walk to where my
car was parked,
hooting of owls and
cries of bats filled
the eerie street
sending chill down my
spine, a black cat ran
down a dark alley.
But I did not notice
all this as my head
was processing two
questions.
WHO IS THIS SERIAL
KILLER
and
WHAT DOES HE
WANTS FROM THE
ADEKOYA’S.
I got in my car as I
turn the key in the
ignition, the car
roared back to life
as I drive through the
silent street.
“Daddy!!!!!!!!.” My two
kids jump at me as I
step in the compound
completely
exhausted.
“Wow, I have missed
my little princess and
Prince.”
Joe is Seven years
and really really
stubborn.
Hannah is three years
old, shy and timid.
I carry the both of
them In arms into the
house as they
giggled happily.
“Where’s your mum.” I
ask as soon as we
enter the sitting room.
“She’s in the kitchen
preparing dinner.” Joe
answered quickly.
“Ok you two go
continue what you
are doing let me see
your mom, I’m going
to read you two a
bedtime story.”
They jump happily, I
went to the kitchen
to see my wife,
Rachel James, stirring
a pot of stew on a
cooker, beads of
sweat form on her
temple.
I slowly slip behind
her, encircle my hand
around her waist
before planting a kiss
on her neck.
She jerk back in a
shock as she turn
around to see me
grinning at her.
“My God Charles, why
did you do that, you
scared me.”
I chuckled. “Just
missed you dear.” I
said and pull her
close to me before
kissing her
passionately, slidding
my tongue into her
mouth and wrapping
my hand around her
tiny waist.
She pushed me back.
“Charles don’t let the
stew I’m cooking to
get burnt.”
He laughed. “I missed
you my love.”
“I missed you more
dear.”
“Ok I should leave
you now, so you can
prepare dinner in
time.” I was already
walking out of the
kitchen when she
called me.
“When we are through
eating, we need to
talk.”
She said a worried
look on her face, our
discussion isn’t
gonna be good.
We finished eating
and I tucked the
children to bed
reading them a
bedtime story till they
both drift to sleep.
Now Rachel and I was
lying on the couch in
the sitting room, her
head was resting on
my chest as I wrap
my hand around her.
It has been quite a
while since I held her
like this and I missed
every moment.
“You said you want
to discuss something
with me, what’s that?.”
She raised her head
from my chest to
look at me and there
was a sad look on
her face.
“Charles you have to
drop this case.”
I took me a while to
register what she
meant. “You mean the
Adekoya’s case.”
“Yes, Charles the
serial killer you are
on the hunt for is
very dangerous and
killing is isn’t new to
him/her, if you keep
on going deep into
this matter he will
want to harm you.”
D--n it, why didn’t I
see this coming, my
wife and I has never
have this kinda
discussion before,
why now??.
“Rachel listen, just as
the serial killer is
trained, so am I and I
know the risk in this,
so I will also protect
myself.”
“What about us?.”
She ask and I froze.
“What do you mean?.”
I ask.
“If you can save
yourself from the
Serial killer what
about us?.”
“You think he’s going
to come for you…..for
the kids?.”
She didn’t reply to
this, she just avert
her gaze so I
wouldn’t see the
tears that are now
threatening to fall.
I turn her face back
to me and said in a
soft voice. “Rachel, I
will never let anything
or anybody not even
the Serial killer harm
you or the kids,
that’s a promise my
love.”
She hugged me and
we remain like that till
sleep took over.
“Your passport is
ready, we are leaving
as soon as possible.”
Samuel said as soon
as we step in the
Police HQ.
“Samuel I need to talk
to the Chief Security
inspector in England
please.”
“Ok bro.” He dialed
the number and hand
the phone over to
me.
At the third ring he
received the call.
“Hello this is Daniel
Brooks from the
England Security
Force, who am I
speaking with?.”
“Hello this is Charles
James, FBI Detective
Agent in Nigeria base,
please a crime was
committed in
Manchester
yesterday.”
“Yes exactly, we are
standing in front of
the apartment now,
we got a call that
similar bodies were
found in this state.”
“Yes and I’m the
Detective in charge
of the case, please
send a message to
the airports in
England, nobody
come in and nobody
go out from England,
there is a probability
that the killer is still
in England.” I
explained.
“Hmm, you are right Mr
James when are you
going to arrive in
England to
investigate the body.”
“Since it’s a Six
hours flight I will get
to England by 06:12,
that’s if the weather
is friendly.”
“Ok Mr James we are
expecting you.”
“Thanks Mr Brooks.”
I turn to Samuel and
said. “Let’s head to
England.”
We finally got to
Manchester in
England around 07:11
and we got to
Sophia’s apartment.
I met Mr Brooks and
other England
officers there.
“Nice meeting you Mr
Brooks.” I shook the
white man.
“And you too Mr
James, you should go
up there and
investigate the body.”
“Ok thanks Mr
Brooks.”
Samuel and I got in
Sophia apartment and
as soon as we got in
I noticed something,
the room was
scattered.
“I think Sophia got in
a fight with our killer.”
I said. “Let’s go see
the body.”
We got in Sophia’s
bathroom and saw
her corpse lying on
the floor.
The towel she was
tying around her
waist loose lightly
exposing her breast.
“Well let’s……….” I was
saying when I
stopped.
My face turn white
with fear as I read
what was written on
the white tiles wall, it
was written in red
paints
NEXT—— RACHEL
CHARLES……….my wife.
