The Worst of Good Guys

They're on both sides of the law...

**The Worst of Good Guys** is the 23rd case in The Origins and the 3rd case to occur in the Southeast Region.

## Plot

After Imogen was able to track down cop Lester Bartlett so we could interrogate him about his connections to the summoners. Max and the player prepared themselves and entered the station where they found Lester dead with a bullet wound in his head. Suddenly, the duo was approached by Brendon Jordan, another cop who accused them of murdering Lester and said he’d take control of the investigation Max snapped at Brendon saying due to his connections to the victim and his presence at the scene. Two other people were added to the suspect list first was a British Duchess named Sophia who agreed to talk to the team it was discovered that Sophia was sent to the U.S. by her country to negotiate their trades with Remington Dunn After he was incarcerated for the murder of Jacob Lynch, she decided to stay and explore the U.S.A. but denied knowing the victim. We also met paranormal writer Shauna Shaunthal who was caught sneaking into the station, trying to find inspiration for her latest novel, which she left there. The team's coroner, Maria then concluded the autopsy when she confirmed Lester was shot with a revolver in the head and he died pretty quickly however there were traces of Eye Drops on the body which weren’t the victim’s meaning they belong to the killer: After going back to the scene to recap Max and the player heard a noise coming from the reception. Deciding to check a noise from the reception out they discovered Security Guard Aiden Rossi who was guarding the station and accidentally knocked down some boxes. The investigation continued leading Max and the player to suspect a photographer they’d previously met named Artie Choke who had taken pictures of the victim as well as Aiden himself. Later on, they interrogated Brendon again after finding out Lester thought black people were criminals and that they shouldn’t be police officers and Sophia after it was revealed the victim gave her a parking ticket and he didn’t know who she was. Having another look around the reception Brendon caught up with the player saying it’s time to confess. Max and the player pointed out their innocence and told Brendon they have more power as agents and Brendon will be put in custody if he interrupts again. They later interrogated Aiden after finding out that Lester didn’t feel like he was skilled enough to guard the station, Artie because the victim gave him multiple DUI’s although he did nothing wrong, and Shauna after the victim arrested her for snooping around the station and brutally assaulted her for an explanation.

## Killer and Motives.

The killer turned out to be Artie.

When first confronted with the accusations Artie denied them saying he was appalled that they’d think he was a murderer although eventually he sighed and explained that he indeed killed Lester Bartlett explaining that he is a member of the CDRA and those were his orders. He explained that the agency caught some intel that the summoners intended on taking Lester wherever they went because he had good knowledge of crime which would be beneficial for them. Artie explained the CDRA couldn’t allow this to happen or it would surely be a very strong advantage which he wasn’t sure they could overcome so the agency ordered that he kill Lester. After consulting with Artie’s boss, Olivia Burnwood, we agreed to let him go.

## Down South (3/5)

Later on, we got a phone call from Adeline Mann who asked to meet with us. During this meeting, Adeline admitted she used to be a JUSTICE member and was sent into the Russian agency to spy for the CIA. Adaline told us she wants to bring down JUSTICE in honor of good friend Jordan Patterson she explained she didn’t have much info but she is aware the summoners tend to hold their VIP Club meetings in Charleston, South Carolina Knowing this is a huge opportunity to find info. Hence, the team decided to attend the meeting in Charleston.
