I've been working as an Archivist and also have to write a written report about everything that we've done to solve this case. While I also have to help working in the field. It's tiring of course, but still, duty still a duty. I heard that there'll be a new Archivist to help me with organizing the files. If I haven't forgotten Their name is Eclair Vin. They would also provide an audio recording of all of the Archive files.

So hi, there then… Eclair Vin.

Alright, let's continue. Recently, the police found a naked dead body, believed to be a male, in the middle of the forest, first found by some teenagers who were trying to find a place to camp. Thanks to our research team, who keeps an eye out for any information. The body, if I can describe it, is rather in a disturbing condition, although this isn't my first time seeing something like this. In the first photo, I saw the victim's eyes covered with white fabric, red blood oozing and penetrating the thin white fabric. Its chest is wide open, revealing the lungs and the exposed rib cage. There was a missing organ in a wide open and bloody chest, the heart. It was missing a heart. And when I take a look at the second picture, when the police open the fabric, the victim's eyes are removed revealing a bloody eye socket.

But he wasn't Jonathan Taylor. But I believe that this case is tightly connected because of the missing eyes and strange disappearance before being found dead. Although I wasn't quite sure.

The autopsy report has suggested that the body has been dead for several days, and some of the internal organs are also starting to decompose, with a smell that is similar to rotten cabbage.

In the span of a few days, similar cases were being reported. Police investigation led to a belief that this was a serial murderer case. Four bodies were being reported, and also the one that was first reported, so in total, five bodies were found dead naked with their eyes and hearts taken out. After doing some digging into every single victim we found something that might be useful. James Dean was found dead in Plank Gate, Sheffield, UK. His body was found lying on the road covered by mud and dirt because of the rain earlier. He's found by some locals, presumably an old fellow.

We did some research into his personal life, turns out. He is also a devoted churchgoer like Jonathan Taylor. He often goes to Bradbury Street Church and meets Dolores Cannon. This struck me with joy, but yet, the mystery hasn't been unveiled. Until this record was written we haven't found Jonathan Taylor, that is, if he is still alive…

James Dean lives in Main St, Grenoside, Sheffield. 19-minute drive to Bradbury St. The police searched his house; he was living alone, and the inside house was a total wreck. Like someone had been robbing the place, but nothing valuable was missing. His neighbor stated that they never saw him at all, they even thought that the house was empty and no one had lived there. Some don't even know him. But a teenager stated that one day on a rainy day she saw a man looking down through the window from his second stories house, he just stood there with his eyes wide open and then the man disappeared into the shadow, the teenager described it as something is pulling him by the waist but he wasn't quite sure what she saw because the heavy rain blocked the window with droplets and condensation it's appeared that he was breathing heavily, although she wasn't quite sure.

I'll be honest this gave me a chill down my spine when I read it. What can possibly be happening to him? Of course, he was dead now, but what does that mean? Why did he suddenly disappear?

We went for his medical records but couldn't find anything from when he isolated himself, but according to his medical history, we found that he had been suffering from Dementia and Depression. However, I tried to take a closer look and noticed that his blood pressure was always low. I'm not a doctor or anything, but it could be because he hasn't been eating properly or it could also be caused by side effects of his antidepressant medicine. The description of his sudden disappearance might be caused by hypotension. He didn't disappear but was more likely to faint and fall back giving an illusion that he is disappearing. This led to another puzzle: why did he go to Plank Gate? Until this report is written we haven't gotten an answer.

The police had been searching his house and found a room full of red scribbles all over the wall and floor. It says: "They saw me." and "They are coming for me." The phrase is written over and over again. Who is that? And why did they come for him? At this stage, I'm sure that this case is connected with Jonathan Taylor. With the evidence that the same ominous message is written and how every message is connected with sight and pleading to be saved. It's like something is constantly watching their every move.

The police also check the CCTV footage and there it is, James Dean, walking alone at night. He walked at 1:35 AM in a white shirt and shorts. But something strange, he doesn't walk like a normal person, like a baby who learns how to walk. And then his figure went out of camera range. At this point, this case truly gave me a headache, I almost gave up, but I should try harder to solve this. Besides, the organization had tried their best so I should have done the same.

The information that the police had collected is finally useful. But not useful enough to solve the case yet. The organization is planning to do some surveying and investigation of James Dean's house. This report will continue rather late because of how many things need to be packed into only 3-5 (sometimes more) A4 pages of paper. On top of that, they insist on me giving my own personality into this, so yeah, now that I think about it, this is kinda fun.

Now I'm gonna take a break and just wait for more information unless they want me to join them in the field again…
