Chapter 114
2020 is rapidly turning into a year no one wants to remember. I hope you are safe and well, wherever you are. Let’s treat our fellow humans with respect and kindness (anyone remembers ‘Try a Little Kindness’ by Glen Campbell?), and a big ‘thank you’ as always to those who work so hard to keep us safe.
Bo Jinyan thinks back to the beginnings of the ‘Masked Killer’ (and reminds us all of Fu Ziyu, sob) as he and Jian Yao relook their assumptions on the Masked Killer’s identity and modus operandi. They draw some new conclusions and ponder a key question. Just who is this Masked Killer?
SPOILER NOTICE! The PD team will be running a competition soon with bonus chapters as prizes. You might want to think through all that is revealed about the 5 luohans and BJY’s musings on the Masked Killer/ police officer in these few chapters to get a head start on the competition ?

The evening breeze blew gently. In the twilight, Bo Jinyan’s face had become hazy. Jian Yao looked into his eyes and her heart jumped silently. However, when he spoke his voice was as low and as firm as before.
“Once, the FBI ascertained the identity of a person suspected to be the masked killer. His name was Jam, 26 years old, blonde, blue eyes, born and raised in America. He had started to commit crimes due to his wife’s death in a medical incident, which caused him to have a deep hatred for medical personnel. The masked killer was dubbed so because he always wore a mask when killing people. His commonly used murder tool was an axe, which corresponded with Jam’s having grown up on a farm . . .”
Jian Yao thought back to several years ago. At that time, she had also read the information on the masked killer.
That was quite a number of years ago.
The masked killer had kidnapped quite a few hostages at the same time and had imprisoned them in a deserted house by the sea. The hostages were all family members of medical personnel, and among them was Fu Ziyu’s childhood sweetheart and fiance, Han Yumeng.
