Case 8.1.7: The Game Has Changed

1

I need to figure out who killed Paul Volkov using all of what I know about the Volkovs, the Triad, and information from Interpol.

 

You need to find answers to all these questions. Things became very confusing very quickly, time to get things under control, Alex Morgan.

Putting a hit on a master assassin is a very risky idea... it must have been extremely necessary.

So whoever killed Nikita's brother, Paul, probably has a lot of resources...

Criminals in Venezuela could have wanted him dead... but why did men from Hong Kong come to Venezuela the day he died?

They had reason to believe his brother ordered the hit... but Interpol doesn't know these brothers like I do... they were too close. They'd never kill each other.

The phone call from Paul Volkov to Hong Kong is suspicious, and they think the Volkovs could have had a falling out at this point.

Interpol found that locals feared and respected Paul Volkov. He was considered a fair but tough man in the eyes of most street criminals.

They are currently active in Hong Kong trying to find answers, but they are having trouble locating Nikita Volkov, who I know is Xinshen.

It seems like a stretch for them to reach all the way to Venezuela to kill someone who may or may not be hurting them...

They have some territory in Columbia, but I don't see anything here that suggests they are in Venezuela.

Was Paul Volkov working with the Sun Yee On? Maybe this could be a reason for the Triad to kill him?

Did Paul likely leave his brother and go to Venezuela? Nikita must have returned home to Hong Kong, but I don't know about Paul.

This explains how they had the resources to immediately vanish after the asylum encounter, they had the Triad.

It must have just been a Triad mission, a small piece of the puzzle... What about Entropy, there are so many unanswered questions.

They could have tried to craft the poison in Hong Kong... so what was special about London? Maybe London is where they needed to use the poison...

Unless he was working against the Triad, it's hard to see why they would want to kill him.

This is a key component, this highlights the Sun Yee On or the Triad as the organization that killed Paul Volkov.

The phone call three days before his death was probably to engage with the Triad, seeing that his brother is an incense master in the Triad.

1. Who wanted Paul Volkov dead?

Correct Answers

1. Who wanted Paul Volkov dead?

  • Ri Zhou

Ri Zhou... he seems like the most likely candidate... I can use this information wisely versus Nikita.

The game has changed... apparently, the Triad might be crumbling from the inside.

 

Connecting the Dots...

I suspect it was Ri Zhou, he is probably the one with enough resources to kill such a high-profile powerful assassin. It seemed like Ri Zhou backstabbed Paul Volkov. Paul was probably working with the Triad, this is why he and his brother were in London. But why did Ri Zhou betray Paul?
