American Comics: When the Police Comes to Knock on the Door

Richard told Angela what happened. The two of them stood on the top of the building and looked down blankly. This thing was really weird. A breeze blew by, and Angela couldn't help but feel chills on her spine.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Angela noticed that Richard was holding something in his clenched hand.

Richard spread his hands and showed them to Angela. The cross, a big cross, is usually used by clergy.

Things are strange, but the case still needs to be investigated. The two returned to the police station to retrieve Nick Young's detailed information to see if they could find anything from it.

"He is a sophomore at Columbia University and has been absent from classes for more than a week." Angela put down the phone.

"Chinese, born in Austin, Texas, both parents are dead. He has never been registered with the DMV, and has no arrest record. He has not even been a plaintiff. This kid is very clean. Can I get his cell phone data? "Richard looked away from the computer screen and looked at Angela.

Angela shrugged and said: "His aunt said he doesn't use a mobile phone, and none of the major operators have accounts in his name. I have contacted the technical department to see if I can find anything. This kid is like a ghost."

At this time, the technical department staff came over and handed the cross to Angela.

"We took fingerprints from the cross but found no match, but when we were cleaning the cross we found a line of writing on it."

Angela took the cross and the words on it.

"Father Frank Xavier, so-so, ordained in 197."

"Wait." Richard suddenly thought of something.

"What's wrong"

Richard felt that they seemed to have overlooked something, the cross, and the priest. Suddenly Richard remembered what Missy said: "It's not a priest, but a person wearing priest's clothes." Why did Missy ask this? Looking at the cross in Angela's hand, Richard felt he had caught the tail of the clue.

Richard said: "We have always regarded him as a murderer who attacks people randomly with a knife, but what if it is not random? What if he just cuts the wrong priest?"

"The deceased was not a priest."

"Yeah, but on Halloween night, he was."

Angela suddenly realized. Yes, the priest was dressed as the deceased on Halloween night.

Angela put the cross away and said to Richard: "It seems we have to go back to the crime scene to take a look."

The two came to the church community elder's home near the crime scene.

"If you want to find a priest, you must know that priests have a certain degree of mobility during All Saints' Day and Halloween. Guest priests will come to help."

"Fortunately, we know the name of this priest." Angela took out the cross and continued: "Father Frank Xavier, so-and-so, was appointed in 197."

Father Miranda was stunned for a moment, took a step forward and looked at the cross in confusion, and wanted to reach out and take it back.

"Where did you get this?"

Angela avoided the priest's outstretched hand and said to the priest: "I got it from the suspect. This is evidence and cannot be handed over to you."

"No Frank Xavier, no priest named Frank Xavier."

"Father Francis Fran, please think carefully." Angela then asked. Both Richard and Angela could see the change in the priest's expression. There must be something in it.

"We did have Father Fran Ainsworth. But he has moved on."

"How long have you been walking?"

"I'll have to check the parish schedule."

Richard and Angela looked at each other. Richard stepped forward and said, "With all due respect, Father, I'm starting to think there's something wrong here."

"With all due respect, officer, what you are looking for is the attacker, and I don't know where the attacker is, so can you please stop wasting everyone's time?"

"Well, maybe Father Ainsworth knows."

"Then you go ask him. I don't know where he was sent."

"Yeah, of course you don't know." Li
