it was me, Daddy?
-Don’t you know? I’ve got
eyes in the back of my head.
-No, you don’t.
-What’s with the scary mask
you got on?
-It’s an oni.
I heard they’re scary demons
from Japan.
-He got that as a gift
from a friend.
It was a souvenir from a trip.
Your face is an absolute mess.
-Oni are big baddies.
And they're mean.
-They might show up thinking
you’re one of them
if you keep on wearing
that crazy mask.
-They’re really scary.
Can you beat them all up for me?
-Well, they sure look like
they’re big baddies to me.
Come on.
You think I can take them?
-No.
-Don’t worry.
Everything will be fine,
because Mommy is gonna
take them out for you.
-Can you really?
-Yes, really.
-Okay, then, I guess Daddy’s
going to keep working on
the motorcycle
so we can run away when Mommy
gets in over her head.
Want to help me?
-Yeah!
-No, I don’t want you getting
your clothes dirty again.
-Oh!
Come on. And make sure you’re
home in time for dinner, honey.
And hurry up!

-Now, for our next story, the
suspect in the brutal murder
that happened in El Balkeen
on the 10th is still at large.
The victim’s body
was lacerated multiple times
with what appears to be
a very sharp object.
Investigators say the injuries
would suggest
there were at least
five perpetrators involved.
Many are speculating
the murder was carried out
by a criminal organization.
However, the victim
had no discernable
-Do you think it could be?
-Maybe it’s the oni.
The oni could do that.
[ Grunting ]
-Okay, it’s time for bed, son.
-But I’m not sleepy.
-No buts.
-I hate it when you
make that face, Daddy.
-Even your mom is saying
that it’s past your bedtime.
-[ Grunting ]
I love every face
that Mommy makes.
-You better behave,
or you won’t be getting
a birthday present.
-Aw!

-What’s wrong?
-It’s that news from earlier.
You know, the way he was killed.
-Oh, Mari.
-Not to mention the victim.
They have zero insight
into his personal life,
even after interviewing a bunch
of people he worked with.
-That’s not out
of the ordinary these days.
Everything’s fine. No one’s
going to find us out here.
-Are you sure?
What about the Reaper?
-Don’t worry about the Reaper.
Besides, this definitely
wasn’t his work.
You know
he always worked alone.
Please just relax. It’s smooth
sailing for us from here on out.

[ Siren wailing ]
-Another horrific murder
has occurred,
this time in a quiet
residential area of St. Mark’s.
This killing has
the same characteristics
as the ones that took place
in High Park,
in Oleana,
and the murder in Zamilan
on the seventh of this month.
Authorities are currently
saying
that we may have
a serial killer on our hands.
While a large-scale
investigation is now under way,
things don’t look too hopeful,
as there are still no clues
or connections
that have been established
between the victims.
