​It seemed an eternity after the Inspector last spoke. But the clock on the wall told me it had only been 5 minutes. The ugly smile was still pasted on his face. He was waiting…Waiting for me to say something unfortunate.795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX9OYAuorm
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwWfelpOx4
“Then who had something to do with it, Amy?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct4AipaXFT
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuIQwuJo3g
“If I knew I would have told you.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6Njwmf1Qi
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFvP6Yx3YZ
“So…You are saying you knew nothing about this murder?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBFZarILLB
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4bdcOPFtR
“Yes…” The moment the word left my mouth, the Inspector’s face lit up. His eyes danced with excitement as he talked in length about me hanging around backstage.795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkx5541bXH
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElm8eXZ3pt
“If anything, you were trying to knock the poisoned drink out of her hands. How did you know?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg0zleV7lm
I was horrified. How could I admit…795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHdZCLlO2D
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInVbCmsBcq
“I didn’t…” I blurted out. “It was an accident.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgZv36zZlx
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXWgYDs1SG
“Lawrence has already given his statement. He clearly says it was a deliberately done. I may not believe his wild claims but I have no reason to believe he’s lying about the facts.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYQowQCB46
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeuVlYeDoH
“He’s lying.”  I said. “He and I are not in the best of terms.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1fV7yWm18
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBcI0u8njA
“And why is that?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqs1tIAzyq
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQjXvqA5A1
“Nancy…She and Lawrence were…I didn’t like him. I tried to talk Nancy out of it but she wouldn’t listen.  Then after her accident…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiyRLNoZB4
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrgr7GoAf8
“His affections transferred from your friend to Jolly.” The Inspector finished. The implication of what I said hit me almost at once. I had handed him a sword to strike Nancy.795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3wCD8CUx2
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVF0rjJaI2
“Nancy wouldn’t kill anyone…And…We…I mean she doesn’t want to be my friend anymore.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXz1pRF52oh
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJRXVPTmIU
The Inspector raised an eyebrow. “Hasn’t forgiven you for seeing through him, huh?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv85gWCmeFE
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4jmzDNfPW
I nodded. “I know Nancy. She may have a hot temper but she would never ever resort to murder. Besides…Sir…Would anyone really murder over high school stuff?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqcGet9Tv1
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0I00vPprn
The Inspector laughed. The first non-malicious laughter I heard from him. “Girl…” He said. “I have seen murder and manslaughter happen for smaller reasons than high school drama.” Then in a more serious tone he added. “The best case scenario for you is that you somehow found out about the murder and was trying to stop it. But why didn’t you tell anyone instead of trying to clumsily knock the drink from her hand?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VL2r2ZuCv
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm8qPZMMmc
“It was an accident.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5e3GbKuBo
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpqHpxoxli
“The worst case scenario is that you aided one or both of your friends to commit murder…Either way…If you don’t start speaking the truth…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYnSI92xDY
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjh2Cvdrem
“I am speaking the truth…I don’t know. I honestly don’t know anything about the murder.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8X1YJiuyzm
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcCU0K5w3G
The Inspector stood up and walked round the desk towards me. “I am only glad to put you away for the worst case scenario.” He whispered threateningly. “Just give me a reason…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzyhtQEz2T
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCyoxDCokw
​“I didn’t do it. “ I said.  My heart was pounding rapidly inside my chest.  Coherent thoughts evaded my brain. “If you want to arrest me because you have a grudge against Dad…fine. Do it.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fdYsPCQiA
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjckh3wOPK9
The Inspector didn’t back away but leaned closer and said. “Unless you start telling the truth…I will happily do just that.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyABWUZTaQG
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCuFGhSH4u
“What if I give you a certain truth the manager of this school wants to hide?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHiBpaT4v5
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cuCpq1PZ8
This time the Inspector backed off. He glanced at me for a while and said. “What is this so called truth?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvkqqCQ90Z
“There was an incident in this school 2 weeks ago. Jolly…She was in the centre of it all.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDAYEvpLSM
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWjDxqKQS7
“Interesting…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxr21TQG2Fb
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILYuvcNj1U
“Our Physics Master, Roy Sir, and Mathematics Teacher, Linda Madam, were locked inside the Physics lab during lunch break. The one who locked them in was…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zcK0eynkz
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iwEzDsozo
“Jolly…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCXo937JKR
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7xAnD5lKQ
“Yes, Sir. The Physics lab is on the topmost floor, isolated from the rest of the school.  Jolly…she…The things she accused them of in front of the whole school was downright disgusting….She was lying...but…“795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgHvqjd8bw
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmZnBJyD5C
“People believed her?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z8WqzFQaO
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRuDFvYwua
“Jolly has a reputation of being the good girl. Except some of us…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF7irAvD92
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl09qx6ED55
“How does your manager factor into this story?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJwpwyJuNy
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK9vTDECu8
“He put her up to it. There is a reason Jolly got picked for scholarship and won nearly all the prizes for the youth festival. Also…Her father is the manager’s dear friend.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaZMvAiXU4
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34Qam77yz6
“And why would he do such a thing?”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1uClPDfK4
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXWD2AWTTd
​“Linda Madam…” I said slowly. “He…She told her brother, Benjamin Sir, about how he was stalking her and harassing her. There was a huge fight in the school office and…almost 3 days later…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0cRLJJcWt
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIq8fQkVEq
“The Incident in the Physics lab happens.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq5Ael0K8H
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCSGuP17AH
“After that…Jo from the shop came and attacked Roy Sir, claiming to be Linda Madam’s lover.” I saw the Inspector frown but he did not interrupt me. “Then we heard that Roy Sir’s wife left him and…”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsOKNScT4r
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAULIA8UOZo
“Looks like the girl had plenty of people around her who would willingly cut her throat.” He mumbled, darkly. Then, looking at me, he said. “Girl…You have been more than helpful to me today.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo2XOWpXbW
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnakeY8pSDA
“Michel Sir said he’d expel anyone who tells you this story.”795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQySdpN7bfr
795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7LSte09Wv
The Inspector’s expression darkened. “I wouldn’t worry too much about that if I were you.” He said. There was a hint of a smile on his face.795Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40xZRI4Ncp
