​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.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYx1IezKLC
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQ6LYekIHF
“Then who had something to do with it, Amy?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4tjebFe9R
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNm51TYSWT
“If I knew I would have told you.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXBtBU3Jxo
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo5IItux0c
“So…You are saying you knew nothing about this murder?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AmA662a45
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSoXry09pH
“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.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6rYIcFzAL
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGkctBC3US
“If anything, you were trying to knock the poisoned drink out of her hands. How did you know?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RC44Fj9uW
I was horrified. How could I admit…1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXPOGEhSfW
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0B1j4qz6v
“I didn’t…” I blurted out. “It was an accident.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrfQlBcCim
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOpHzckw04
“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.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eFVUqX1Lv
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACdh8mZpKP
“He’s lying.”  I said. “He and I are not in the best of terms.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZVAbSzZlJ
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrkOUnm04k
“And why is that?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssd1um4nhy
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aErNnMzDn
“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…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimCWQrCOl7
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz6zu3iySY
“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.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrlu1hwMYE
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDYMOgIXaL
“Nancy wouldn’t kill anyone…And…We…I mean she doesn’t want to be my friend anymore.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVvQPZgYzN
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLtXU3QmIN
The Inspector raised an eyebrow. “Hasn’t forgiven you for seeing through him, huh?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFB9Q8YWIf
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMx5AM3kch
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?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWLorQxAGt
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoavZYfsMa0
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?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1M4DScVkf
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVVYbVDSp9
“It was an accident.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8lyDe5aOp
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4d1OhCwbI
“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…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf11NAyqkYD
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjv8EwfUW2
“I am speaking the truth…I don’t know. I honestly don’t know anything about the murder.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbf67f8Pqz4
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8pJLnd9aj
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…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFoDj6UTf8
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiUYcgt2YF
​“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.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFqZxsohNi
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eP1pzOLVt
The Inspector didn’t back away but leaned closer and said. “Unless you start telling the truth…I will happily do just that.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhuhbYV40C
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg38qZjPrf
“What if I give you a certain truth the manager of this school wants to hide?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7TvD0DHBZ
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoQe2htDjQ
This time the Inspector backed off. He glanced at me for a while and said. “What is this so called truth?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9tR69g4cf
“There was an incident in this school 2 weeks ago. Jolly…She was in the centre of it all.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RoOo2suoc
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRy8AnkiMbg
“Interesting…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDSvdJygB3

“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…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4t2JEVV7F
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5mY9NSfQP
“Jolly…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0okpnyXEhk
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdT6SDwvKDH
“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…“1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7tSenCLhZ
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzajwphxqwQ
“People believed her?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW28bp99XsX
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQitGN11l9
“Jolly has a reputation of being the good girl. Except some of us…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTTpEeNG25
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQdVDmxnqo
“How does your manager factor into this story?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7agMv4hbX
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu22WpkJf1j
“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.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlqM8VQRXK
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe5gBwyUgx
“And why would he do such a thing?”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y2S9oBC9A
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7y8Fl4XaP
​“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…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAI2OwaKA2
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0nyODJ1jP
“The Incident in the Physics lab happens.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeSCAGYyC7
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mEZgYOh5Y
“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…”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV6fZJIZTI
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEiue5bcdc
“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.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNCaXA96Dh
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwdX0zcG5j
“Michel Sir said he’d expel anyone who tells you this story.”1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY6z5lIAfA
1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Vbl8lASbY
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.1061Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAJi0u5stV
