## Plot

The team arrived in Montpellier after receiving threat from a anonymous person. They had came here to stop the beheadings. The Chief send the player and Emmeline to meet Mathis Defour, a young detective hired by the police department, to find out more about the person behind all this. The duo arrived at the place, where they were supposed to meet, however the duo found Mathis murdered. The chief called the duo and informed them, that Montpellier has the largest number of beheadings so far in France. The duo suspected Roselyn Couture for the murder, as she was the last person to call him before his murder. Roselyn told the duo, that Mathis was her cousin, and they were supposed to meet later on. Beat Cop Alexandra Leventis informed the duo that a certain Sylvain Lemaire wants to talk to them. Sylvain revealed himself to be victim's best friend, he told the duo that Mathis was receiving beheading threats from an anonymous person, which caused him to fall into anxiety and depression. The autopsy revealed out that Mathis was poisoned. The duo interrogated traveller Anthony De Bruyn for the murder. He told the duo, that during his time in Montpellier, the victim had helped him visit around Montpellier, and even let him stay at his home. There was a news circulating on TV, that there were twenty–four beheadings carried out in just one hour in different French cities, and this made it an international news, which caused tensions between France and worldwide countries.

Mid–investigation, it was informed that peace has been made between Asian people and French government, and Asian people would no longer be discriminated, which resulted in the cessation of riots, that were being carried out for two weeks. The team suspected Mallory Travers, the victim's girlfriend for the murder, she told the duo that they had a innocuous relationship, and loved each other a lot. The duo found out that Roslyn had threatened the victim, and when the team interrogated her, she revealed herself to be part of the incidents happening in France, and she threatened the team that they won't be able to stop them from ceasing peace between European countries. The duo took her to custody. The duo lastly suspected Constantin Allard for the murder, who was in Montpellier, he told the duo that he was their for his football practice, and he was introduced to Mathis, by his manager. The chief was devastated on the death of Mathis, because they would never know more about the person behind all this scheme.

Mid-investigation, the duo found out the hideout, and investigated it, the duo found Mathis' phone there and there was a message, which said "Babe, I am ashamed of myself, please don't leave me". The message was sent to Mallory, the duo interrogated Mallory, she eventually told the duo that her relationship with Mathis, was really understanding, until one day she found out that Mathis was sexually abused as a child, she told that she stood up in his support and never wanted to break up with him, but her family forced her to dissolve there relationship, and she then broke up with him. After interrogating Mallory, the chief informed the duo, that Silas Becker, the weapons expert was kidnapped. The team had enough evidence to incriminate the victim's best friend Sylvain Lemaire for the murder. Upon admitting, Sylvain broke down into tears, and confessed that he loved Mathis like a brother, he told that one day he had received a threat from " Les décapitations" that they were aware that Mathis was spying on them, Sylvain added that he ignored the threat, and next day his whole family was kidnapped and held hostage. He was devastated, he told the duo that the leader of "Les décapitations" had already decapitated his father and he abused him verbally, which caused him to fall into depression and anxiety, the leader had forced him to kill Mathis, and had threatened him that if he won't kill him, they will kill his mother. For saving his family, he killed Mathis.

Judge Catalina sentenced him to 20 years in prison. In the AI, the chief assigned the duo to find Silas, he also assigned lab chief Liesbeth Anderiesen to interrogated Roselyn to find out more about the organisation, but before we could ask anything, she had already escaped. The duo investigated the hideout of the organisation to find Silas, however he wasn't there, according to the news, tensions were arisen between France and Germany, due to all this beheadings in France, which was sign of French Revolution, the duo further investigated the crime scene to determine, where Silas is, and eventually it was confirmed that "Les décapitations" will held decapitation in Marseille, and it is probably the place, where Silas is taken.
