Sean was currently in the commander-in-chief's office, looking over the details of the recent serial murders.

Two weeks ago, one or a gang of killers appeared to have Infiltrated Dorodo. The sheriff's department called them

Killer X.

Killer X could be a single person or a group of people committing crimes after entering Dorodo. There had been a

total of 11 murders In just two weeks.

11 Dorodo residents had been killed. All the victims had no connection to each other, which meant they had nothing

in common. In other words, Killer X chose their targets randomly.

It made it extremely difficult to solve the case.

The murder scene that Sean, Ronald, and Lillian witnessed in the alley near the cinema was the fourth.

The first three murders did not attract the attention of the sheriff's department, but because Sean discovered the

fourth, the sheriff's department finally noticed it and linked it to the first three murders. There had been seven

more cases after that.

The mysterious Killer X had not been caught so far. The sheriff's department did not even have any clues about

them.

"This would be easier if it was in Dragon Kingdom."

Sean was overwhelmed with emotion.

The City-State Union was no match for Dragon Kingdom, and Dorodo was no match for the Dragon Kingdom's

mainland cities. Although Dorodo was financially doing pretty well, it was a far cry from Dragon Kingdom's mainland

cities.

For example, road surveillance and CCTVs.

If it had been in Dragon Kingdom, the killer would surely have been caught after blatantly killing 11 people in a row

in just two weeks. However, they were in Dorodo. The flaws of its security made it impossible for them to have a

lead on the killer.

"Commander, the mayor-Quentin just called and asked the city defense army to back up the sheriff's department,"

Zander said from the side.

"Get back to him that we at the city defense army will do everything we can to support the sheriff's department. We

won't go easy on Killer X," Sean said solemnly.

Whatever the reason or purpose of Killer X committing crimes in Dorodo, it had caused panic in Dorodo.

The name Killer X had been in the newspapers and even on television news these days. Dorodo's residents were

afraid to go out at night. They even tried not to go out during the day.

It seriously affected Dorodo and disrupted its social order!

Therefore, even though the matter was under the sheriff's department'sjurisdiction, the city defense army had to

step in. Besides, Quentin had reached out for help.

"Yes, I'll deploy five battalions to guard Dorodo's every entrance and exit. There's no way we'll let Killer X get away

unharmed," Zander said and went out to execute the order.

Sean did not stay in the army camp. He prepared to go out to have a look. Maybe he would get lucky and meet

Killer X.

***

Downtown Dorodo.

Standing in front of the fountain, Sean looked around and quickly realized that the downtown area was much more

isolated than it used to be.

He meant fewer people were on the road when he described it as isolated.

Downtown Dorodo used to have many pedestrians, whether day or night. Only in the late hours of the night did

pedestrians disappear. Therefore, Dorodo's downtown area had always been bustling. Even though it was daytime,

there were few people on the road. Hence, it felt desolate.

Killer X really took a toll on Dorodo.
