Officially, private investigator Bobby Nicholson always works incognito and secretly collects information, his methods remain a mystery to everyone. He communicates with everyone and plans his actions almost completely remotely, and rarely appears live.
The eccentric showman “Lucky Shadow” is known for trying to interfere in the affairs of criminal gangs to make money. He regularly threatens and blackmails criminals that if they don’t pay him, he will disrupt their deals and destroy their business. The main method of the showman’s work is to suddenly appear at meetings and events organized by criminal gangs in the city of New Night Haven, and sabotage them. The “Lucky Shadow” has a huge wardrobe and has a huge number of costumes and uniforms with which he disguises himself and attacks criminals at meetings and events. He got his nickname because he is extremely mysterious and very lucky. He is called the “Lucky Shadow” because he always appears out of nowhere and manages to get away unscathed, and also because he successfully manages to create the impression that he is present in several places at the same time and that in many places there are his people ready to act. In the opinion of most ordinary people, he’s just an eccentric weirdo. For them, the “Lucky Shadow” is an inventive buffoon who performs dizzying tricks for no particular purpose, and who always gets away with it, and disappears unharmed. Everyone is convinced that he is a big fan of thrills. Everything happens suddenly and it’s not entirely clear what he’s trying to achieve. He has a special stamp that he puts everywhere he has been so that people know that he has been there. The stamp has his logo and a link to his web page, where clips of his crazy performances are posted. After seeing the seal, people whisper and watch the video for a long time. The character, for the most part, appears suddenly in random places, but it is possible that he plans his appearances and attacks in advance. Everyone knows that the “Lucky Shadow” can appear unexpectedly, for a certain reason or without it, in any places and during any events. Everyone has seen and knows his emblem well, which consists of two images: in the foreground a colored image of a man with a top hat rushing forward with his arms raised and outstretched, and in the background a silhouette of a man in a calm straight pose with his arms down. The silhouette in the background is visible just behind the body of the jumping man in the foreground. The head of the calm silhouette in the background is located just between the outstretched arms of the colorful character in the foreground, and his legs and part of his torso are visible between the spaced legs of the jumping man. The man in the foreground is dressed in a stylish suit and made up in addition to a spectacular appearance, and the man in the background is a mysterious silhouette. The emblem of the “Lucky Shadow” is sewn to all his costumes and is depicted on his seal, which he leaves wherever he goes and wherever he rampages. One of those who is convinced that the “Lucky Shadow” is neither a madman nor a random person is undercover agent Geordie Norris, who too often stumbles upon interesting episodes involving the “Lucky Shadow”. Based on the information gathered, Geordie Norris is sure that the “Lucky Shadow” is an intelligent person with high goals, but he himself cannot understand why the showman does this and what exactly he is fighting for. Agent Norris undertakes the difficult task of finding out who is really hiding behind the famous nicknames “Lucky Shadow” and “Night Hazard”, and the latter is undoubtedly a dangerous criminal and criminal authority. It is known that “Lucky Shadow” and “Night Hazard” are blood enemies who hate each other to the core.
Crime in New Night Haven is quite high, especially at night when all the criminals and gangs are active. Most of them operate during the day, when they are actively preparing for the night. Among the criminals there are so-called “Day Brigades”, which operate and prepare all the details during the day, and “Night Brigades”, which operate in the evening and at night. The “Night Brigades” are more powerful and influential than all the others, because most of the important actions take place at night, and they bear the greatest responsibility and bear the heaviest burden of all. Some of New Night Haven’s most powerful and well-organized criminal gangs are under the command of a mysterious man nicknamed “Night Hazard”. This nickname is due to the fact that this man constantly plans and directs secret operations and dangerous covert actions, including surprise attacks on his opponents. He never appears in public and organizes secret meetings only with extremely limited access and with extreme security measures, communicates with others mostly remotely and with the help of his assistants and mysterious friends. Almost no one knows what this man really looks like, and few people have seen him in person. But everyone has heard of him, and there are legends in the city about his power. The nickname also comes from the fact that this person is an excellent strategist and likes to covertly observe the general situation and secretly track all the details, as well as check everything and everyone. “Night Hazard” constantly plans and performs unique and unusual secret actions, moves, attacks and multi-moves, as well as complex combinations of actions, moves, attacks and multi-moves. “Night Hazard” uses a large number of strategies, tactics and tricks, and also has significant tools for observation and action. He often participates in dangerous criminal schemes and weaves dangerous intrigues, seeking to establish control over the criminal world of New Night Haven. He is the author of most of the tricks, tactics and strategies he uses. “Night Hazard” has connections and acquaintances in the city administration, which provide him with political cover and complicate the investigation against him. For example, the longtime chairman of the New Night Haven Municipal Council is a businesswoman named Barbara Johnson, who is actually the right-hand of “Night Hazard” She is extremely arrogant and malicious, secretly creating intrigues, problems and stumbling blocks for anyone who could threaten the interests of “Night Hazard” and the people around him. Barbara hates everyone who dares to stand in their way, including all the investigating police officers, secret agents and private detectives who try to unravel their schemes and explore the connections in every single case in which they are involved or may be involved. One of the people who can threaten the interests of the “Night Brigades” and “Night Hazard” is the inconspicuous private detective Bobby Nicholson, who is hired by many key players in New Night Haven and who knows too much. That’s why Bobby Nicholson almost never appears live or communicates live. Each of his live performances puts his life in serious danger. Another problem for “Night Hazard” and “Night Brigades” is the eccentric showman Tommy Loreno, nicknamed “Lucky Shadow”, who constantly interferes in the affairs of criminals in order to make a profit. The “Lucky Shadow” is an extremely extravagant character with unusual views on life. Most people think he’s crazy, others think he works for one of the criminal gangs, others think he’s the leader of a criminal gang because he’s pretty greedy and always demands a lot of money from his opponents. The “Lucky Shadow” always appears suddenly and unexpectedly and at the most inopportune moment for its competitors and is able to fail their every deal and their every event. The “Lucky Shadow” blackmails criminals with a lot of money so that he does not interfere in their affairs and does not interfere with their business. Barbara Johnson, the right-hand of “Night Hazard”, considers “Lucky Shadow” a serious problem and often speaks about him in a negative light in front of other iconic figures of New Night Haven, calling him an immoral buffoon and a madman who poses a danger to people and the moral foundations of society and promises to deal with him and put an end to his performances. Who will win this heated battle? And will there be winners and losers?
