Bounty Reward

Éditeur: Efydatia

"Wild beast ate people! The people-eating beast is back! The frequent incidents have the public complaining that the police isn’t doing its job!"

...

Most of the front page consisted of that big, bold title, but what had really caught Kieran’s attention and made him pick up the newspaper again was the content under the title.

"Sidney’s body was found eaten in Royaljer!"

"Poor Courtney’s head and upper body were found on the Andalier Garden lawn!"

"Another tragedy! Paul’s arm was found in the Beth Hayes Fountain! The police states that Paul might still be alive!"

Those three sentences had been underlined with a black pen.

If the newspaper hadn’t suddenly unfolded when it fell down, the clues might have slipped Kieran’s sharp eyes while his attention had been captured by the folding lines of the newspaper.

"Why would Leonard underline these sentences? Did he really discover something about the beast?" Kieran looked at the lines doubtfully.
