BLOOD (Part 3)
I won't lie but this case is now very complicated. I know the killer but not the way to catch him. A single wrong step could result in my death. I believe...

“What are you thinking?”, Paul interrupted me.
“It's not something you can understand.”
“Don't dare to call me dumb.”
“I am sorry. So since we have got the autopsy report let's head back to police station”, I said.

When we were in car, I was drinking pomegranate juice and thinking. I believe the killer have some similar lust for red blood as I have for red pomegranates.

When we about to reach I saw a Catholic priest entering the station. It could be seen by anyone that he was angry. When we entered, I saw a cop saying, “Please calm down Pater (German word for Father) Nowak.”

“The situations have become so terrifying that it is impossible stay calm now. I immediately want to see the person who seen that vampire”, Pater Nowak said in anger.
I lift my hand and said, “It's was me, Pater Nowak.”

“Was it you? You doesn't seem like German.”
“Yes Pater, I am not a German.”
“Then stop invoking that beast.”
“What do you mean Pater?”
“Now don't be like that. More you will make him angry by this 'investigation', more children of Jesus will die. You doesn't understand the value of life.”

He was making me confused. What does he want to do by this. Is he the..? No, it can't be. I thought and said, “Pater, my investigation is surely making him angry. But if I stopped this, I am sure murders aren't going to stop.And in the matter of law and crime, I don't believe a respected priest should come. Otherwise it may become problem for you.”

I was sure with this words he will leave. Pater Nowak moved a bit, wiped his lips and put hands over pocket - signs of nervousness. He then said, “It's a warning dear. The more you will do this more will die. You must stop this because you are no less than that sinner.” After saying this he turned to go back. And I said, “Thank you and I am sorry for your loss.”

He just furiously gave me a glance but didn't said anything after that. And then this Paul murmured, “Hey you know right you shouldn't talk to a priest like that.”
“Of course I know but that's what came to my mind to send him away from this.”

“And what did you mean by ‘sorry for your loss’?”, Paul asked.
“Pater Nowak have recently lossed his mother.”
“Wait, how do you know that?”
I said, “One could easily tell by his voice and sentence, that he was sad. Also I can see tears wiping mark around his eyes. A priest can get such sad only by death of someone. And to tell it was his mother, I got glance of picture of old woman, in his pocket ,which is quote uncommon to carry in priesthood. Now it's sure it could be no else other than his mother.”

“I don't want to hear anything. The way you talked wasn't nice”, Paul said by making his voice heavy.
“I know. Other than that I need any police information we have about Pater Nowak”, I said to a cop standing near.

I read, ‘Pater Georg Nowak’, and then said, “I didn't expected this much reports have been against him.”
Inspector Walter, who gave me this, said, “Well I am also quite surprised by this much. But I was sure there are few cases against him. He have supported people in social abolishing few people. And also involved in years ago riot.”
I putted hands over chin and said, “I see, well thank you Inspector Walter. I will be checking these.”

While reading and drinking pomegranate juice, I didn't even realised that it was already night. Inspector Walter said, “Are you still not done Steve?”
“Almost done”, I replied.

Then suddenly my phone rang, interrupting me, I picked it and answered, “Hello?”
My started heartbeats suddenly became fast, there was no answer for a while. I asked, “Hello can you hear me.” Still nothing. Inspector Walter was seeing me with confusion.

I was about to cut the call but then the most interesting thing happen. A cold and calm voice said, “Hello Steve”, and laugh was what I heard next.
