'''Under the Skin''' is a [[Cases|case]] featured in ''[[Criminal Case]]'', appearing as the seventy-third case of the game. It is the seventeenth case of [[Pacific Bay]] and the final one to take place in the [[:Category:Inner City|Inner City]] district.
   
 
==Plot==
 
==Plot==
Previously on ''Criminal Case'', [[Andrea Marquez|Chief Marquez]] informed the player that even with the end of [[Inner Chaos]], the Russo-Chinese feud was still in progress and required a search for the stolen organs of [[Ling Zhang]], [[Radovan Radich]], and [[Angus O'Brian]], and ordered [[Frank Knight]] to accompany the player in keeping the Chinese Festival in Inner City secure. Unfortunately, the festival was cut short when the team found Russian community leader [[Nikolai Kamarov]] partially skinned and tied to chains on a parade float, suspecting fears of the Russian community retaliating in violence in response to Nikolai's death.
+
[[Andrea Marquez|Andrea]] told [[Frank Knight|Frank]] and the player to patrol the Chinese Festival and watch for any Russian attack. There, they found the body of [[Nikolai Kamarov]], partially skinned and tied to a parade float.
   
  +
During the investigation, [[Eduardo Ramirez|Ramirez]] stumbled on the operating room where Nikolai was killed and spotted [[Heartless|the]] [[Eastern Promises|missing]] [[Spineless|organs]]. The team concluded that Nikolai's murder and the organ-stealing scheme were linked. Later, [[Sue Xiong]] disappeared and [[Mark McKenzie]] was revealed to be the organs stealer. [[Russell Crane|Russell]] deduced that Sue was actually in danger of also being partially skinned, and the team found her in the operating room. Despite the events, the team found enough evidence to arrest businessman [[Rupert Snow]] for the murder.
In the middle of the investigation, [[Mark McKenzie]] was arrested for his involvement in the missing organs as Mark obeyed the killer's orders to remove the organs and give them to the killer in clandestine terms, which suggested that an organ thief was on the loose. Chief Marquez had to rush to the headquarters of the Chinese community in search of [[Sue Xiong]], who was kidnapped by the killer. While the killer was successful in skinning Nikolai to death, Sue was fortunate to thwart her death before the killer did the same thing to her—she was also kind enough to hand the [[Murder Weapons|murder weapon]] to the team. In Inner City's unexpected turn of events, the killer turned out to be a businessman named [[Rupert Snow]].
 
   
Rupert was the illegitimate son of Nikolai and Sue, but was abandoned by the two community leaders when he was one year of age because both were too weak to stand up to societal pressure from their respective communities, so to show his power, he hired Mark to gather organs from various Inner City citizens for him. Frank couldn't believe Rupert's reasons for the murder, but Rupert was more than willing to reveal his sick plans before [[Edward Dante|Judge Dante]].
+
After denying involvement, Rupert admitted to the crime. He was the illegitimate son of Nikolai and Sue, who had abandoned him when the feud started to fight each other. Feeling abandoned, he was determined to end the feud by uniting all the communities in his body. He hired Mark to get [[Ling Zhang]]'s heart, [[Radovan Radich|Radovan]]'s lungs and [[Angus O'Brian|Angus]]' spine and transplant them on him. To finish his master plan, he needed halves of his parents' skins. He partially skinned Nikolai with a scalpel but was unable to skin Sue, who helped the police catch him. [[Judge Dante]] sentenced him to life in jail.
   
  +
Post-trial, Frank and the player interrogated Mark about the location of the missing organs. Mark pointed them to the operating room, where they found the organs. [[Roxie Sparks|Roxie]] confirmed they were the missing organs and handled them to reputable hospitals. Afterwards, the team confiscated the money Rupert had given Mark for the organs.
In court, Rupert told Judge Dante he had to rely on countless foster families wondering who his parents were since he was a toddler. Rupert had to make his fortune as a businessman before embarking on his sick quest to find Nikolai and Sue, but felt betrayed when he discovered that he was the son of the leaders of two rival communities as the Russo-Chinese feud didn't fly out of Rupert's fingers. Money was the only motive the community leaders had for the Russo-Chinese feud and, as such, Rupert believed he was the chosen one to end the Russo-Chinese feud, and admitted he hired Mark to collect the heart of Ling (full of life and hope), the lungs of Radovan (to breathe the cleansed air of Inner City), and the spine of Angus (the backbone of society) to unite all races together in a bloodbath. Rupert decided thus he needed to skin Nikolai and Sue to death to remind Inner City the embodiment of peace between ethnicities, and although Rupert succeeded in skinning Nikolai alive, he blamed the player for his failure to do the same thing to Sue. This sickened Judge Dante like never before, and the court decided [[:File:Criminal Case Pacific Bay Case 73 (Case 17) - Arrest Killer|a lifetime jail sentence]] for Nikolai's murder, his involvement in the organ-stealing scheme, and the attempted murder of Sue Xiong was appropriate for Rupert. Frank admitted that the case was somewhat too much for him as he believed the case was crazed to no end.
 
   
  +
After the team helped [[Yann Toussaint|Yann]] find his son [[James Toussaint|James]], Andrea said that [[Sergei Yablokov]] and Sue were going to attend to Nikolai's funeral and work together to end the feud. She then transferred the player to [[Jazz Town]], which had been struck by a hurricane.
Following Rupert's incarceration, the team managed to find the missing organs in Rupert's hideout (the same place where Sue was rescued) in which [[Roxie Sparks|Roxie]] verified they matched the organs stolen from Ling, Radovan, and Angus during [[Heartless|three]] [[Eastern Promises|previous]] [[Spineless|murders]] and given they were preserved well, allowing her to transfer them to reputable hospitals in the event other citizens might need organ transplants in the future. [[Jessica Toussaint]] saw the player in person for the first time as she needed the team's help locating her other child, [[James Toussaint|James]], in which the player found him becoming a new friend of [[Andrew Kamarov]], who's currently under the care of [[Sergei Yablokov]] following Nikolai's horrendous death. Sergei felt he would not be a good foster parent to Andrew as he wanted to call a permanent truce to end the Russo-Chinese feud, so he pleaded with the team to take care of Andrew until further notice.
 
   
  +
==Summary==
With the Russo-Chinese feud put to an end (thanks to Sergei and Sue attending Nikolai's funeral to show signs of a working truce), Inner City could finally reunite all ethnicities in a non-violent fashion, in which Chief Marquez announced the next district the player would be working at was in [[Yann Toussaint]]'s hometown, [[:Category:Jazz Town|Jazz Town]].

Under the Skin is a case featured in Criminal Case, appearing as the seventy-third case of the game. It is the seventeenth case of Pacific Bay and the final one to take place in the Inner City district.

Plot

Andrea told Frank and the player to patrol the Chinese Festival and watch for any Russian attack. There, they found the body of Nikolai Kamarov, partially skinned and tied to a parade float.

During the investigation, Ramirez stumbled on the operating room where Nikolai was killed and spotted the missing organs. The team concluded that Nikolai's murder and the organ-stealing scheme were linked. Later, Sue Xiong disappeared and Mark McKenzie was revealed to be the organs stealer. Russell deduced that Sue was actually in danger of also being partially skinned, and the team found her in the operating room. Despite the events, the team found enough evidence to arrest businessman Rupert Snow for the murder.

After denying involvement, Rupert admitted to the crime. He was the illegitimate son of Nikolai and Sue, who had abandoned him when the feud started to fight each other. Feeling abandoned, he was determined to end the feud by uniting all the communities in his body. He hired Mark to get Ling Zhang's heart, Radovan's lungs and Angus' spine and transplant them on him. To finish his master plan, he needed halves of his parents' skins. He partially skinned Nikolai with a scalpel but was unable to skin Sue, who helped the police catch him. Judge Dante sentenced him to life in jail.

Post-trial, Frank and the player interrogated Mark about the location of the missing organs. Mark pointed them to the operating room, where they found the organs. Roxie confirmed they were the missing organs and handled them to reputable hospitals. Afterwards, the team confiscated the money Rupert had given Mark for the organs.

After the team helped Yann find his son James, Andrea said that Sergei Yablokov and Sue were going to attend to Nikolai's funeral and work together to end the feud. She then transferred the player to Jazz Town, which had been struck by a hurricane.
