Chapter Three: The Investigation
Background: The police force no longer existed in this society. Regional managers control and maintain areas that used to be made of counties. Private organizations were tasked with handling crime. The government paid a few while most people had to pay fees to them similarly to insurance.

When Victor arrived at the scene he immediately called for back up. This was the crime of the century. Bodies and bullet shells were everywhere and for some reason no guns were present. The scene did not make any sense to Victor. The victims had been obviously shot to death. Only five minutes later the Elusive Gruesome Organized Crime Unit or E.G.O.C.U. (The unit was mostly just called the E.G.O. instead) arrived and began taking control of the crime scene. Victor began to look for Yuri who was in charge of the E.G.O.. He spotted him down the road talking with some of the regions? managers. Yuri looked around the managers and dashed on over to Victor. ?Have you learned anything yet?? he asked. ?There are no guns anywhere, but I do have a possible clue. Victor guided Yuri to where he thought a clue could be. The two arrived in front of a house with its windows shot out. It was the only house completely torn up by gunfire. ?What might have happened in here?? asked Yuri while moving to the door. Victor went ahead and walked inside the house only to stop short upon a strong scent. ?This is definitely the smell of a corpse, but where is it??. Victor swiftly moved up the stairs to find the origin of the smell. He reached the top of the stairs and peered into an open room. On the floor lay a body riddled with bullet wounds. He was about to leave the room when he noticed a business card in the man's jacket. Before going to check it he left the room and called for Yuri to come upstairs. The investigators crouched over the body and pulled out the card. They were both shocked at what they found. The body belonged to a Mr. Koga from the most secretive private organization known as Detectives. ?We need to contact the Detectives agency right away!? exclaimed Victor. Yuri, however, thought it would be best to avoid the rival agency until E.G.O. could claim credit on solving this mystery. Little did they know that a battle ensued over the Detective agency compound. ?I think we should keep searching for more clues. I am going to grab some fresh air?. Upon getting outside Victor hid behind a fence and took out his phone. He was not a big official at E.G.O. and did not really care about claiming credit or getting money. That is why he made the decision to contact the Detectives agency and solve this crime. The phone dialed and rang, and rang, and rang. There was no response and the call was dropped. Something about the situation struck him as being very odd.
