SNAKES STILL MENACE!
Reports are still pouring in of people wearing "snake masks" being sighted, with a couple muggings and robberies following the "Snake Riot."  One was even reported menacing a local church!  The FBI is now claiming that those apprehended were just afflicted by cancer growths, and any resemblance to snakes is a combination of hysteria, and hallucinations from sewer gas.  The damage done to the Asian markets were from explosions of said gas as well according to Agent Made!  Sewer worker Jackie Saadson says there's no gas there, they check!  Dear readers, we know these are really mutated sub-humans from beneath the city! Report any sightings and call the police immediately, these snake-men are dangerous and may even be contagious.

ALIENS REAL!
Several people that were held hostage in the "Snake Riots" claimed they had a young boy's voice talk in their head offering words of comfort and solstice.  Was this a guardian angel, or really the voice of a telepath at the scene?  No, it's an alien!  One man described a menacing presence looming over him with large eyes, invading his mind, but he heard the real voice talking in pictures of an alien world with strange colors, unimaginable alien animals, and the joy of inflicting pain on him.  Guard your mind readers!  Parapsychologist Sheldon Mandrake suggests reciting a well known psalm or song such as "Row Your Boat" to protect yourself from mental invasion.

HOMELESS ABDUCTED!
Local homeless advocates have reported an entire encampment on the strip median disappeared overnight.  Locals reported seeing weird lights at night around the area.  This picture was captured (just a burry mess of rainbow colors on the road)  Is it more aliens?  Snake people?  The necromancer "Tremor" from the future that attacked my very own self at the Rally to remove the Mayor?  Devil-women? or more "Sewer Gas?"  Report any information you have to The Mystery Times!

This snake business was getting out of hand. Considering what he should do, Manmirror remembered "begin by seizing something which your opponent holds dear; then he will be amenable to your will."
Sun Tzu coming through again! But what would his 'opponent" hold 'dear'? Maybe the answers to that could be found in Dr. Cobra's lab. Now if he could only find the lab, he could take a look, there. Well, someone would know something. He would just have to ask around.

After a frustrating day with no leads undercover Manmirror takes a walk through the park to clear his head and sits with a chess hustler friend Chester.  He's smarter than most and knows how to keep a secret maybe he'll have some insights, it'll cost him a buck to be trounced though.

After listening and beating Manmirror Chester says "Hey, you know, I saw that broadcast on the Chaze bank robbery.  The reporter said the snake guys fled down a manhole near there, I'd think that'd be a good place to start.  Criminals usually start near home, that was their first appearance I think."

Max sighed. He knew Chester was right. Darien had mentioned the snake-men retreating into the sewer and there were several eye-witness accounts of the snake-people exiting the sewer. He just didn't like the sewer. All the poor alligators that had to be repressed when you're walking through. Plus, if you're not careful you hear things from people's bathrooms. No one wants what they say in the toilet to be public. Well, if he was going to do it, he would find the entrance that was nearest to the most recent attacks.
