Inspector : Have you found anything?
Assistant : No Sir, have rummaged through everything, nothing that could indicate the motive.
Inspector : Keep looking, we have to frame a report by evening.
Assistant : Its all games everywhere, stack of games - on cupboards, shelves, under bed - there're everywhere.
Inspector : Hmm...
Assistant : It seems our criminal loved playing games, he has a collection out here.
Inspector : These are not simple games, they are the biggest proof infact.
Assistant : What proof, Sir?
Inspector : Look through those games, each has name of the child he has murdered and stolen 'the game' from. That's the motive!
Assistant : Oh!?
A trophy hunter! Grisly
