The next morning, In the Morninstars house.
-Sasha, Kate, Leroy come on you guys hurry up, your dad is waiting for you.
-Yes mom, we're coming !
-So, how was work yesterday John ? asked Miss Morninstar .
-It definitely was an interesting day.
-How so ?
-Well, I've had the unpleasant occasion to meet a certain new person.
-Unpleasant ?
-Yes, he's definitely something.
-What do you mean ?
-You see...hey kids nice of you to finally join us.
-''Hi dad'' said each child.
-Hey little ones, Okay honey see you tonight, we'll finish our conversation then, kids eat your breakfast, kiss you mom goodbye and meet me in the car, don't be late !
After taking his children to school, Detective Morninstar went ahead and bought two coffees, one for the drive as he is living far from the police station, and one for the rest of his day with Cunningham .He bought them from his new favorite coffeeshop of the week, this time it's the Cesarius coffeeshop turn. You see Morninstar was a man who didn't like to have a fixed routine : Favorite coffeeshop, same road to use, same music to hear... he always liked to change things now and then to mix things up, make things more unpredictable as he said after all being a detective doesn't make you loved by all, retaliation was common where he worked at, so he took his precautions to protect himself and his family.
When he arrived at the police station, he saw Mr Cunningham waiting at the entrance, he was drinking a coffee and having a bagel with it. Morninstar parked his car and went to the man :
-''Morning, Mr Cunnigham. Is it still Mr Cunnigham ?'' Mocking him.
-''Good morning to you too detective Mornintsar. Is it still Detective Mroninstar ?'' rhetorically said the man.
-''How is your coffee ?'' with a smile on his face, that didn't happen often
-It's actually very tasteful, I bought from this nice little coffeeshop, I don't know if you ever heard of it, it's called the Cesarius'' Sipping his coffee, marking a short pause '' exquisite scenery there, you should give it a try someday.'' He sipped his coffee one more time , marking another pause ''You know what ? next time I'll bring you one.''
-''That's kind of you''. erasing the smile out of his face.
-Please, this coffee will make you never wanting to drink that abomination of coffee you have.
-Oh, you tell me. Are you going to put me up to speed on the case or maybe you would prefer to talk about coffee for the rest of the day?
-''Let's go upstairs, I'll join you in a few moments.'' Finishing his coffee.
-''Ok, you better make it quick'' Morninstar turned away a moment to lock his car, when he turned back Cunningham has disappeared, ''Unbelievable'', he entered the station and headed to his desk.
-Good morning boss.
-Good morning to you too Greg.
-''So boss, what do you think this case is all about. I mean Mr Cunningham a man that secretive why would this concern him . In my opinion boss it's just your typical serial killer. Where's Mr Cunnigham, he said he'll be here early in the morning, and yet he is nowhere to be found, that should tell us something about him.'' Greg stopped and proceeded : '' That actually may give me sometime to get coffee, I didn't have the occasion to drink one today.''
-''That's a good thing then that I stopped on my way her to get you a coffee Detective Cunigam'' said Mr Cunnigham who has just appeared from God knows where, having two cups in his hand.
-Oh, that's nice of you, you shouldn't have done this...
-You're right I shouldn't, and that's why I didn't, who do you think I am ? I had to take care of something on my way here DETECTIVE CUNIGAM'' in a funny tone.
-Ok, enough, let's talk business why don't you tell us more'' said Morninstar.
-We need somewhere more private than the middle of a station, we can't risk it.
-You have nothing to fear, Mr Cunnigham everyone in here is trustworthy.
Cunnigham headed towards a meeting room, not giving any attention to what Greg said, he invited both of Cunigam and Morninstar to join him alongside the chief, he then proceeded :
-The organ foxer, 6 victims over the course of 13 years, all with the same motto DEFINETLY NOT your typical serial killer '',he stopped for a moment looking straight ahead at Greg,'' for the past year I have been tasked and still I am to solve what seemed to be initially a crazy killer case , but what I discovered was a completely different story.
-''What was different'' said the chief cutting Cunningham.
Cunningham gave the chief a cold look, and proceeded :
-As I was saying, and 359 days ago to be precise my expertise was called on a 67 day cold case in Wichita city, as you may suspect : A body inside of a bin, with no organs, multiples holes on the body and an orange hair. Preliminary investigation suggested it may have been a gang related crime, to show what would happen if a member dares to betray the organization by becoming rat. The hypothesis was a good one, especially since few days earlier to the murder the notorious Haykza gang lost 14 million dollars worth of products due to a CI with whom the handler couldn't get hold off his location.
-''It wasn't related to a gang was it '',added Morninstar '.
-It wasn't, it got quickly scratched when the CI came to surface 2 days after , apparently he was simply paying his respects to a deceased family member.
-''Then ?'', said the chief interrupting Mr Cunningham.
-''The result of the lab is what happened. It showed a fox hair, granted not what we wished for. So I needed to dig into the matter and what I came across is'', He stopped brutally.
-''Came across what ! for Pete's sake Mr Cunnigham this isn't a suspense movie'', yelled the chief who have had enough of the frequent stops.
Cunningham couldn't care less, he left the room, ''What is he doing ?'', asked Greg, ''Give it a moment, be patient'' added Morninstar, drinking his coffee at this occasion . Immediately after, Cunningham returned and in his hand a bag, he put it on the table, it was secured with a fingerprint scanner on top of a secret code ,he unlocked it, opened it, took a stack of case files, and tossed them on the table.
-I came across 2 similar cases, two bodies found within a bin, no organs, multiple holes and a fox hair inside of them. DNA identified Bruce Lor, the first victim aged of 32 father of 2, body found in Oklahoma city. Megan Moon 27, single was the second victim, her body was found in Tulsa.
The third victim, the one I was called to assist on her case was a Jane doe .At the beginning, there was no apparent link between the three victims, none of them lived at the same place, nor met, all had different jobs, different background, different family situation . it took 2 days for me to get my hands on their casefiles and when I did the detective in charge of the Jane doe case alerted me that a similar one was found in Kansas city, I immediately headed there it was Thomas Gray 47 the fourth victim.
