Chapter 3

There were a lot of policemen all over Sydney now, most of course in the middle of the city, they also found out that here the most casualties had been killed. They walked around helplessly, not knowing how to go about looking for a criminal. They stopped people in the street and searched them in the hope of finding a gun with which they shot the victims. The searches only resulted in the arrest of many people with drugs, but that was not the point. However, Nathan did not use these searches, as a large proportion of the people arrested by the police for drug possession belonged to dealerships working for him. So he urged Ethan and Kate to rush the search a little. They had already found the starting point, now they were talking to young guys hanging around the city at night. They gave them a phone number and told them to call them if someone tried to attack them or if they saw someone else being attacked. They promised a big reward for helping to catch the killer. This method proved to be more effective than the police, as after less than a week, the killer was captured by Kate and Ethan, and the police initially did not even know about it and continued their own search.

Nathan and three town boys in their twenties made an appointment for the evening meeting outside the block. They bought a case of beer, as always for such meetings, and sat on a bench near the playground. They drank, talked loudly, laughed. The party was successful. At two in the morning, when they were drunk, Nath staggered past the block. He began to sing when suddenly he felt something cold and hard against his temple.

Give me the money and the phone of the dung, or I'll kill like a dog, - a man in a hood hissed in his ear, who crept up to him unnoticed. At first, the boy did not think that it might be the murderer that was so loud lately.

"**** off," he growled at the attacker and began to prepare for the fight, but noticed that he had a gun to his head.

-Stay still or you'll be after you.

Nath had to keep cool if he wanted to live. Suddenly, the attacker hit Nathan on the head and escorted him to the car and the tires screeched away.

Next day

"Something happened to Nathan, he is nowhere to be found." Until we find out what's happening to him, I'm taking the reins, ”Sister Natha said.

Did he have a hard time with anyone? Someone might have taken it away? Or maybe he just drank too much at the meeting yesterday and is still sleeping? Although it's not his style ...

Yeah, you drove him from the meeting yesterday. You saw him last, 'said Math to the shofer.

Shofer was slightly worried, thought no one knew that he was driving his boss away from the meeting yesterday.

Well, yes ... I took him home and left him there ... Then I did not see him - The driver tried to speak confidently, but it did not quite work out.

So you don't know what might have happened to him? Ethan asked.

I have no idea - said the driver - leave me alone. Instead of fucking you better go looking for him. Ride!

The friends broke up, but they were a little surprised by Shofer's behavior. Math decided to inform Jackson (Nathan's cousin) about the incident. Even though he was told that he could only call this number in truly exceptional circumstances, he dialed it and said:

"Hi Jackson, sorry to bother you, but something strange has happened." Nathan, he's gone somewhere. We had an appointment with him and he didn't come, Shofer Bain came instead and told us that he was taking his place now. It seemed a bit strange to me, because he was taking him home last night, and when we asked him about it, it was kind of… strange. As if embarrassed. I just wanted to warn you and ask what we should do, listen to Bain until Nathan is found, or can he make someone else his deputy?

Jackson thought for a moment, then replied:

"For now, listen to him, but keep me informed of his movements." And tomorrow I will meet him and find out what's going on.

"Okay," said Math, then ended the call.

Jackson was also a bit concerned about the situation, especially as he knew Bain's character and knew he was capable of anything. He thought to himself that although he was a good killer, it might be a mistake to hire him. If only he didn't get into trouble.
