King Vons Autopsy Photos の小説・ストーリー

Ava I stood beside Chris, both of us leaning over Dedrick’s lifeless body in the morgue. The harsh fluorescent lights cast an eerie glow over his pale skin, making him look even more ghostly than he already was. The sterile smell of disinfectant mixed with the underlying scent of death, making my stomach churn. “From what I’ve gathered from the autopsy,” the medical examiner said, glancing at his clipboard, “he took a lethal dose of moonbite powder in pill form.”

He’s right. Vanessa is our home.Our heart. The center of our clan. Our love. It isn’t until much later that I finally reply to Alpha Dirk. He sends me a series of surveillance photos from Wolfe Island with the date of the attack. They all show Gafton talking to a pair of guards, one of whom is that dick Jack that tried to drown Vanessa . The photos are clearly from a video camera, but Alpha Dirk cleaned up the imagery to make them clearer. I show Kev and Jordan , who both snort.

He knew how tired she was, and he didn't want anything to disturb her precious sleep. "Are you alright, bro? "Daxon asked in a small voice. "Hmm... I'm fine. "Vance replied. Daxon chatted with Vance for some time and then left together. It was pretty late, so john and mark also left. Now only Ron, Kavin was remaining. "How is Noah? Is he seriously injured? "Vance enquired. "Yes... "Ron nodded. "He was seriously injured, but now he is out of danger. "

A gray van is parked haphazardly in the ambulance lane, its side door sliding open with a rusted groan. Two men—nomads I don't know—jump out. Their clothes are dark, soaked. They reach into the back. They pull a body out. It’s Markos. He is limp. His head lolls back, his good eye staring up at the fluorescent lights without seeing them. His chest... I cover my mouth. His chest is a ruin. Two dark, ragged holes punch through his tactical vest, right over the lung. Blood is everywhere—soaking his jeans, dripping onto the white linoleum floor as they carry him in.

Inside were the raw, unredacted records of the Moretti succession. Medical history charts. The true, unedited chemical analysis from the private clinic. And the laboratory photographs. There was Carlo Moretti. Dead in his bed at the estate, his skin a pallid, translucent gray, his fingernails displaying the telltale dark lines of heavy metal toxicity. The independent forensic autopsy report was stapled to the rear cardboard backer. The conclusion was written in cold, clinical print: Systemic cardiac failure induced by chronic, long-term arsenic exposure. The evidence was absolute. There was no room left for strategic doubt. My mother had executed my father. And Vincent had held the door open

She was staring at something with wide eyes. “Oh my Goodness! Isn't it Jasver Rossi!” I followed her gaze and I looked over the TV hanging over the bar. “He's been killed. And his body was found in a hotel room. He was stabbed twenty-one times and his head was hit with a hammer multiple times. His knees were stabbed by rods. And his every rib shattered. His face was bruised so badly that it became hard to recognize him.” Winona read aloud the caption flashing on the TV.

"You think this was planned? Five years ago, someone was already setting this up?" "I think Orion has been playing a very long game. And we're only now starting to see the full board." Don pulls up another file. "I have the autopsy report here. Want me to put it on screen?" "Yes." The document appears. Clinical. Cold. Full of medical terminology that makes my stomach turn. But I force myself to read it. "Subject: Male, approximately 28 years old. Height: 6'1". Weight: 180 pounds. Cause of death: Multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and abdomen."

ZAVERIO’S POV I growled from my position, covering my head with my arm from the glass flying everywhere. I unlocked the car door facing away from the chaos and stumbled out, sitting with my back to the tire. The shooting stopped and I chanced a look at the driver’s seat, cursing under my breath when I saw Von slumped over the steering wheel. He was bleeding profusely from his head. The two men who I had seen hanging around were the ones opening heavy attack on us. There were reloading their guns, which gave me ample time to drag Von across the seat so he was lying down.

I braced myself for something, anything but not what I saw. The guy was sitting without a shirt. Eating oranges. The same dude who'd gone almost fatal from a shot to the shoulder. His skin was already re-knitting itself where I'd stitched him up. Steady respiration. Barely in the sling. What the hell? I was even shocked but I attempted to keep my face neutral, but Vincenzo saw it all. I stepped closer. Read his vital signs. Cycled out the dressing. Clean, precise stitches. No indications of infection. Th8e flesh re-knitting itself too quickly.

The room went so quiet you could hear the hum of the cooling fans. Another screen beeped… a new notification. This was a messy, handheld video taken by a scout on the street. It showed a Black Tide car spun out on the road. The driver was slumped over the wheel. There was a specific, clean cut across his throat… a surgical strike that left a very specific "signature." It was the calling card of a man who knew exactly where the arteries were. Marrow’s signature. Silas stared at the image of his dead soldier. Then, he did something no one expected.
