Most Wanted Badboy

St. Louis Hospital

Carson, Nevada

"Doctor Jacob, there is a guest who wants to meet!" Maria said as she opened the door to Jacob office room.

Jacob took off his glasses with a sigh. It seemed he needed to rest for a while. Page after page of documents and photos of the bodies he examined today made him shudder.

"Okay, ask him to wait in the lobby!"

"Okay, Doctor!"

After tidying up the work documents on the table, Jacob took off his white coat and stepped out of his study into the hospital lobby. To be honest, he could already guess who was coming, he could smell a body scent that was very familiar to him.

Even though he has been aware for years that he is not human, he still feels strange and uncomfortable about his situation. Having special abilities such as a very sharp sense of smell makes it seem like you have blessings and bad luck at the same time.

"Damian?"

"Oh hi, Jake. How are you?" Damian immediately stretched out his hand to shake.

"As you can see, I'm pretty good."

"You look stressed. Is the pressure of working as a forensic doctor making you lose?"

"There have been many strange cases recently and I was asked by the police to form a special team to examine the condition of several bodies found dead mysteriously in forests and national parks."

"I saw the news this morning. A man's body was found dismembered in a national park area. Has the man's body been taken to this hospital?"

"Yes, the body was brought this morning. But unfortunately the condition of the body is too bad so it is quite difficult to identify."

"I'm looking for someone who went missing about five days ago in Las Vegas."

"Really? Is it one of your colleagues?"

"No, I don't know that person either. But his friend asked me to look for him. I have his photo." Damian took a photo which he kept in his bag. Photo of a man who was declared missing after being taken away by members of America's most dangerous mafia group, Supernova.

Jacob studied the photo carefully, a flash of memory about the body of the man he had examined this morning appeared in his head. He couldn't confirm that this man had anything to do with the nameless body that was taken to the hospital this morning. However, if you look at the facial structure, there are similarities between the two.

"How could this person be missing?"

"I'm working on a big case, Jake. Mr. Herman appointed me directly to handle this problem. I was asked to find information about a mafia group called Supernova which is led by a man named Levi. Apart from that, he also works as a jockey and owner of The Royalty, one of the largest casinos in Las Vegas."

"I know, you must be suspecting something, right?"

"When was the last time you heard from Aiden?"

"Aiden?"

"Yes, do you still contact him often?"

"I think it's been six months since I heard from him. My daughter also keeps asking about his whereabouts."

"Kelly still thinks that Aiden is a prince on a white horse?"

"I don't know, I think Aiden has a very strong attraction, and my four year old daughter is already crazy about him."

"Do you think it's strange if I suspect that Levi the god of gambling is Aiden?"

"What?"

"Jake, I know this sounds mean. I don't want to accuse him either. But from the statements of people who have seen him, everything shows Aiden's characteristics. Especially the tattoo on his wrist."

"Aiden also has that tattoo,"

"Yes, he once said that he got the tattoo on his 17th birthday. But rather than a tattoo, I saw it as a birthmark."

"As far as I remember, he didn't have that birthmark when we were little. So I'm sure it's really a tattoo."

"Do you know what it says?"

"It seems to be an ancient letter with a certain symbol. I didn't know an FBI agent would investigate that far?"

"No, I just think this is very strange. Alright, I think we should discuss something else. Have you gotten a reunion invitation from our high school?"

"Yeah, I got it and Henry, he asked me to come."

"He really likes being the center of attention."

"I think he's just trying to improve the relationship between the four of us."

"Including Aiden?"

"Maybe-"

"He invited him too,"

"Yes, I was a little surprised when he said he also wanted Aiden to come. Whatever it is, I'm sure it's because Henry has always had very sharp intuition. Maybe there will be a surprise if we all gather at that event."

"What about Ruby?"

"Ruby?"

"I've been dreaming about her lately."

"Don't tell me this is part of your dream coming true again, Damian?"

"I'm not saying that, but I'm also not saying that it won't happen. I saw her coming and she looked very different from the Ruby we used to know. She had long black hair, was wearing a dress and she looked very beautiful."

"If that happens, what? If she really comes, that's why Henry wants the four of us to attend the event too."

"I don't know, if that's a sign of the future. I'll be looking forward to her return."

"I think you are very suitable to be a fortune teller."

"Maybe I can change professions if I'm not successful enough with my current career. I think Henry will call me soon."

The cell phone rings...

Damian and Jacob were shocked when they heard the sound of the phone ringing from behind Damian's jacket pocket. They stared at each other for a moment as if impressed by what was happening. And sure enough, Henry called him.

"What's up, Henry?"

"Are you in Henderson?"

"Yeah, I'm in Henderson. What happen?"

"You with Jake?"

Hearing his name, Jacob immediately looked at Damian, who seemed to be showing him a code.

"Yeah, you want to talk to him?"

"No, I just want to remind you two to come to the high school reunion next week. I don't want to hear any reasons you have for refusing to attend."

"I've talked to Jake about it, you don't need to worry, Mr Director."

"Are you mocking me, Damian?"

"I don't think a little teasing will hurt you."

"What about that bastard? Did you tell him to attend?"

"Didn't you say that you would invite him?"

"Damn it, I feel so disgusted when he thinks that I miss him so much. He must think this is a joke. If I meet him, I will definitely retaliate for his blow that time."

"So, what were you really thinking that forced us to come to that event? Did you have a special feeling?"

"No, I don't want to guess. But I have a feeling that Ruby will come back."

"Ruby? Are you sure? We haven't even heard anything from her for 10 years."

"This time I'm sure she will come back. If my beliefs and premonitions are wrong, you don't need to trust me anymore forever."
