Chapter 4: The chase and the fight on the roof an unexpected truth

PREVIOUSLY

The assassin left as soon as he saw that they were all together taking care of Mr. Calahan.

"Shina take care of Mr. Calahan I'm going to chase him" Nico said to which Shina only nodded so that then this one left by the part of the stairs to go through the roof.

The chase for the world's greatest detective Nicolas Schneider begins.

CURRENTLY

Nico climbed up to the roof and watched as the killer jumped to the top of another building and began to chase him.

The killer threw knives at him which Nico dodged but he was getting farther and farther away from the killer who jumped to another rooftop to avoid chasing him.

"I think I lost him" Said the assassin, but suddenly he heard a glass shatter, but before he could look he received a lunge from Nico making them both fall further down.

"You really are crazy Nico" Said the assassin barely getting up.

"Maybe, but at least I don't kill people" Says Nico as he also struggles to his feet.

"Well you're right about that" Says the assassin as he pulls out his knife to attack Nico.

The assassin jumped towards Nico who dodged the knife he was going to give him, but when he turned around the assassin threw him to the ground, but Nico quickly turned him around being on top of the assassin making him throw the knife.

Nico started to hit him, but the assassin quickly got away from him and ran for his knife and then jumped up and ran to the top of the roof.

Nico quickly got up and started chasing him again and it was dangerous to do so since they were too high up, but thanks to the training his uncle taught him.

WITH SHINA

Shina was still waiting to see what Nahir would tell her since Nico deactivated his communicator and his sister couldn't talk to him.

"Shina I know where Nico is" Nahir says making Shina forget about Mr. Calahan and get in her car to listen to her.

"He's in a building chasing the assassin, but I just saw on one of the cameras a girl with a sniper aiming at a building where they will arrive" Nahir says while sending the images to Shina on her cell phone.

"That means Nico is their target and the idiot won't notice" Shina says as she starts her car.

"I see you already know what you will do take this is the address and the floor where the girl is, but Shina tell me will you be able to fight with that dress" Nahir says after passing the address to Shina.

"Don't worry Nahir leave it to me" Says Shina with a confident tone making Nahir just smile.

"Well I'll tell you the shortest route and good luck Lieutenant" Nahir says with a smile.

BACK TO NICO

Nico continues chasing the assassin who tries to leave him behind throwing knives that he dodges without problems, but what made it more difficult for the two was jumping from roof to roof as well as dodging the different things that are in each one.

At one point Nico jumped to the ledge of the building they both jumped to, but when the assassin thought he was going to get rid of Nico since they were going to jump to another building.

But when he jumped he saw out of the corner of his eye how Nico jumped towards him intercepting him in the air and making them both crash against a window.

"Fuck that really hurt" says Nico as he struggles to get up from the pain he felt.

But when Nico got up he received a punch from the assassin who was without a mask, but Nico couldn't see him as he hit him again and then sent him to the outside of the roof of the building.

"You know one thing Nico you are different from your father, even though you can die you are not afraid of that and that is something admirable" Says the assassin as he approaches Nico letting him see his face.

"I always knew it was you medical examiner Robert William" Nico says as he rejoins, but without any surprised face.

"How long have you known" Robert asks as he walks over to Nico.

"Since at least four years ago when you told the media that everyone was working hard to find clues on the corpses, but when they got too close you deleted everyone's information to keep hiding" Nico replies staring at Robert who was shocked.

"Wow you really are someone amazing I can see why Shina loves and appreciates you so much" Robert says with a mocking tone as he stops standing a few feet away from Nico.

"Even so Robert I know you didn't kill my father, it was actually another letter killer who is still on the loose all you do is impersonate him" Nico says when right behind him a police helicopter appears.

"You had already warned the boss beforehand apparently but of course after all the boss is your uncle, but don't think I'll let you capture me, just like that Nicolas Schneider" Says Robert as he pulls out his knife again.

"I know that perfectly well so let's get it over with" said Nico taking off the top part of his suit and leaving it with a black equipment.

The fight against Robert William will start with our protagonist against someone who is much more experienced in combat we will see.
