10 Myself as a Psychotic Killer

I have to be careful around this Lieutenant, I can tell just by looking at him, he's not a fool to be easily swayed by money or power, you know the righteous kind.

Finally! Some challenges in life.

Must be a luck day for me.

"Alright, Ford, we are actually here regarding one of our recent case. You may have heard about it. A girl was found dead in her apartment yesterday evening. It was all over the news this morning." He said.

"Oh I'm sorry to hear. And no I haven't heard about it, pardon me but I'm not big on homicide news, I just stick to the business side of the press, you can imagine why." I'm not really lying I haven't seen the news yet since I was busy from morning and to be honest I wasn't really expecting them to find her this soon.

Of course doesn't make any difference though. I already knew they'd be coming to me sooner or later. I planned it that way.

"Well anyway, as I told you, a girl was found dead in her house last evening, however according to the coroner's office she's been dead since the night before last, instead of when she was actually found. That's where you come into the story Ford. " he was eyeing me; it was pretty clear he was watching my reactions very close to see how I would react to hearing my involvement in the case.

Now comes the actual game. If I act nervous it'll be obvious that I'm somehow involved in this murder, which wouldn't be entirely wrong to assume; however that's what I don't want them to think. And if I act a little too stoic of the matter and behave like I have no interest than that would hint towards that I may be trying too hard to not let anything slip so they wouldn't suspect me which would only pike their interest towards me which again I don't want because although I know this is what I brought on me myself, that's only because I wanted to add some spice in life, live a little danger, fly a little close to the sun, however it doesn't mean getting myself burnt to a fucking crisp into it or give myself ulcers.

"I come into the story of her murder too?" I asked with a little surprise. I guess that's the way to go, not too nervous not to stoic, just enough curiosity to maintain a normal, healthy human behavior and not that of a murdering psychopath.

Of course not that I consider myself as a psychopathic killer cause I'm not a killer, I don't murder people for trivial purposes, I simply take their insignificant lives because I can, I have been given the power and ability to do so and there's nothing more beautiful than taking back a life simply for no reason when it was given for no purpose either.

"Is she someone I know? If she's one of my employees Lt. then I'm sorry to say I may not be able to be of help as much. See, I have thousands of employees around the globe, I can't really know them all you know" I said with a hint of disappointment in my voice.

"She wasn't directly in your employment, Mr. Zoldyck, however she was involved with someone you are in business with." I rose my eyebrows at his statement for him to keep going, I knew that wasn't it.
