May 13, 9:12 A.M. Prosecutor's Offices
Detective Gumshoe looked on, spotting several policemen hovering around the west side of the building. He approached the area, and one of the men handed him a note.
One of the policemen said, "Detective, I'm glad you decided to check this out. This is not an ordinary occurrence."
Another man handed him a note. "Detective, he was found dead at the scene. We inspected his wallet, and found that his identity was Anderson Fielding."
Gumshoe yelled, "Pal, the 9-1-1 Center received a call from him." He navigated Gumshoe to the body.
"He was struck by a single bullet and close to point blank range. He died instantly from the impact." The body was inside a car, and the front left window was passenger seat was covered with blood and bits of brain matter. The passenger side window was cracked, but not shattered.
Gumshoe took out a notepad and took notes on what he saw.
"Hmm... it seems that the victim was shot in the head through the window. The shot was probably delivered by an assault rifle, because the wound is rather large. The bullet fatally damaged the vital structures of his brain. To me, it is obvious that this is a homicide."
The police officer who had acknowledged him earlier said, "It's just sad that the Mad Bomber would resort to murder to silence any witness to his acts."
Gumshoe looked at his feet, and spotted a message written in blood on the pavement. He gathered the other officers and he read the message.
It read: IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT AMTRAK IS STILL STANDING. IF I HAVE CAUSED ANYONE GREAT SORROW, THEN I AM SORRY; BUT UNTIL THOSE THIEVES ARE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE, I WILL CONTINUE TO PLACE BOMB UNITS. -F. P.
Gumshoe screamed, "F. P.! That was what the Mad Bomber puts at the end of all of his messages! Our Mad Bomber isn't a disgruntled worker! He is simply mimicking the Mad Bomber's style!"
All of the officers realized it too.
Gumshoe noted, "You know that he wants 'justice' served? Amtrak did nothing wrong here! He is just attacking the whole city of Los Angeles due to some reason. This guy is no socialist... he's not a Communist sympathizer... he's just some terrorist bent on destruction!"
The officer mumbled amongst themselves, speculating on who the Mad Bomber might be.
May 13, 9:23 A.M. Wright and Co. Law Offices
Phoenix and Maya sat in the lobby of the office, drinking some sort of tea that Maya had produced minutes earlier.
The attorney exclaimed, "This tea is excellent! What did you exactly place in this?"
She sighed, "Well, I made black tea and added some honey to it."
Phoenix laughed, "Of course! How did I not realize that? It was the addition of a common sweetener!"
That instant, both of them heard a paper boy throwing newspapers around the block that the law office was on. He screamed, "EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT! PROSECUTOR ANDERSON FIELDING WAS MURDERED BY THE MAD BOMBER! EXTRA!"
Maya facepalmed herself for the third time in 4 days.
Phoenix yelled, "Dammit! If only the police would figure out who that guy is!"
While he ranted on, Maya slipped out the door in time to catch the paper boy as he was delivering the papers. He looked Maya in the eyes, and his face lit up in excitement.
He yelled, "Can it be? Am I really handing the newspaper to... Maya Fey?!"
She said, "You're correct! You are indeed handing the newspaper to Maya Fey."
The paper boy was around 8 years old, and almost looked like he was related to Pearl. He exploded with excitement.
"Yes! I will now be able to tell all of my friends that I delivered the paper to you!"
He handed Maya the paper and leaped away in absolute happiness. She walked back in, only to find that Phoenix wasn't there. Shortly after entering, she heard a flushing sound.
"Niiiick... are you cleaning the toilet... again?!"
Phoenix gasped, "N-No..."
Maya groaned, "Nick! I know that you were scrubbing the toilet! Now let's read that newspaper!"
Phoenix exited the bathroom, and picked up the paper.
The paper read:
The Los Angeles Times: EXTRA
MAD BOMBER VIOLENTLY MURDERS PROSECUTOR IN PARKING LOT
A person, believed to be the Mad Bomber, has now committed his first homicide. Anderson Fielding, a criminal prosecutor, was shot and killed by a single bullet while calling 9-1-1 in his car to alert the authorities of a bomb that was being placed near the Prosecutor's Offices.
It is not known for sure wether or not the Mad Bomber killed Mr. Fielding, but because their was a note left at the scene, as with the Amtrak Station bombing, it is believed that the bomb was made by, and being planted by, the Mad Bomber.
