​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.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJgp9wTN3a
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFdSTACbOw
“Then who had something to do with it, Amy?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgiXwL2BlS
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtazijDzgbo
“If I knew I would have told you.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrkxk2GSoo
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy1ywFfxqU
“So…You are saying you knew nothing about this murder?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZxD98mzf1
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYiwSSd2GL
“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.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEwTKg9pjP
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKD0d21JvIr
“If anything, you were trying to knock the poisoned drink out of her hands. How did you know?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVavqbQkfh
I was horrified. How could I admit…1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9AHaHrde9
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDRa97vHi8
“I didn’t…” I blurted out. “It was an accident.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVmRVVRgyn
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdhUb5CIns
“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.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkyCcps8SE
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJ31TyUmc3
“He’s lying.”  I said. “He and I are not in the best of terms.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZWIiQYIBE
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYqG3DSFgZ
“And why is that?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJYZ7TXnIJ
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tEPMEFAps
“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…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqTympOaPP
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi734y0q0v
“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.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkuQgfwIzZ
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMk20muUJbW
“Nancy wouldn’t kill anyone…And…We…I mean she doesn’t want to be my friend anymore.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuS08Id9c0G
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwB89pifGUI
The Inspector raised an eyebrow. “Hasn’t forgiven you for seeing through him, huh?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbME4Swl6PW
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTy5zCCmTh
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?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrrUa5AuiN
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzuK2IBWFA
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?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72iQCoeRJ9
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TggheFWf1
“It was an accident.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4V1AJdOXvi
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IUFW8XC2I
“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…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwWPqeEU1x
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4VUgoLkGl
“I am speaking the truth…I don’t know. I honestly don’t know anything about the murder.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21LkbtDIXM
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUw9zK2mKtq
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…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTvwcQwO7c
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO6x9AvUli
​“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.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOb6neK5uW
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwunuAyxKZ
The Inspector didn’t back away but leaned closer and said. “Unless you start telling the truth…I will happily do just that.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGkC0eqArM
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfZ5HWFFjX
“What if I give you a certain truth the manager of this school wants to hide?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfldVXAfvBe
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj9MTOVrJq
This time the Inspector backed off. He glanced at me for a while and said. “What is this so called truth?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNmsjviUk7
“There was an incident in this school 2 weeks ago. Jolly…She was in the centre of it all.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZnY29gRLa
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8a4rePUw8
“Interesting…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSmmPu0TZS

“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…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmEbNR3B8s
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Mp2r2uL4Q
“Jolly…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZXMC83GIL
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGlYxKz4Sk
“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…“1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVvNhNZluz
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3YLCsZLdo
“People believed her?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BmfhuWIu3

“Jolly has a reputation of being the good girl. Except some of us…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxl2Oz4ay3
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYMONa27ez
“How does your manager factor into this story?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhuD8AyMz2
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jHfZUWEpO
“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.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ35T535sJ5
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdSjaQeAPa
“And why would he do such a thing?”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjRO7SOZFY
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaphceXBhJ
​“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…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd79EpPQRaU
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFr7sjUUR52
“The Incident in the Physics lab happens.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyB9No5Awwp
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I7D4aVzqg
“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…”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ383q0gCZQt
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rP1gHzmp1
“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.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhuwVTy7yM
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVUUSKyNuS
“Michel Sir said he’d expel anyone who tells you this story.”1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklh3Qi0iLC
1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEwqFVDwdb
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.1026Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72te4PVyfX
