The Unknown Service

The Unknown Aura

***Chapter 12: The Unknown Aura***

I've been out of the lecture hall with Ashanti, Alli and Jake, and it was hectic like I thought it would be, and I still feel the aura, it's like it's haunting me today, walking to the gate with Alli, since our family will hold a welcome back dinner for them. His parents were here last week, but some emergency happened back in Japan so they have to come back, so we will hold the dinner today. As we were walking at the parking lot, I can feel a familiar aura, I look back and saw a car ready to drive, I just ignored it and sit in the shotgun. "Hey, it's been a long time since I visited your little studio, mind?" He asked and I nod. "It's full of little manga deco or some things," I said and smiled as I put my bag down. "Then off we go." He then drive to the gate and turned left.

"Hey, I think that black car's following us," He said glancing at the rear mirror and back at the road. I look at the rear wing mirror and through the rear mirror, I saw the driver who seems to have a really familiar face. "Want me to change the route?" He asked, and I shook my head. "No need, they're our neighbours," I disagreed and look through the rear mirror again and back at the book that Jake gave for our bet, 'The A.B.C Murders' it is quite a splendid book, investigated by the one and only Hercule Poirot.

"Are you two still in the bet?" He asked, and I nodded. "I'm broke, and I wanted this 'Lethal White' book since it's always out of stocks lately," I answered. "We're here," He said and pulled the car shift, we went out and saw the car earlier and saw the guys were walking inside, but I saw Oajun and Faydon waving at me, Allistair waved back and I just waved a little, but, I felt the aura again, the odd aura. "You good?" Allistair asked as his hand on my back, and I nodded. He puts his arm around me as we walked inside our house.

"Good afternoon, Sia and Allistair," I heard the maid and greeted back. "Young master Caius? Is he back?" I asked, and she nodded. "Young lady, the young master wants you in his room," The maid said and I nodded. "Is it fine for you to tag along, Alli?" I asked, and he nodded.

We climbed upstairs as we have our bags on our shoulders, walking inside Caius' room. We saw him with his finger on his temple, sitting in his swivel chair in front of his desk. Something serious is coming up. "Caius-chan? Dō shita no? (What's going on?)" I asked. "Chihiro, something serious came up," He said. We sat on his sofa facing him, he locked eyes with me and I knew something was up. "We have an employee, he killed himself, but I'm not convinced it is a suicide, he left a mother f*****g note," He said that got my interest. "Mind looking at the picture and the note?" I asked.

"I have the note here, and the pictures," He said and look for something in his drawer. "Here." He gave me the things I asked and saw the guy, I think in his thirties, brunette hair has a gunshot in his right temple, and has a g*n on his right hand, right temple and right hand, something's wrong. "He's one of our chemist in our lab, and he had this letter." Caius gave me a paper, and it has numbers in it.

***28-27-57-16***

"In the scene, is there some witness?" I asked, and he nodded. "Yeah, Anna, Coree, Chris and Nicolas," He answered. "Honestly, when I saw the picture, I knew it was a murder," I said, and he sighed. "I knew it," He said. "Even a rookie detective will know it's a murder if he just observe a little more," I said.

"How d'you say it's a murder?" Alli asked. "Easy, the mug, lamp, pen and his nightstand, it tells the owner is left-handed, but, the g*n was on his right hand, I can tell if he shot it, it can misplaced," I explained. "And I think I know who the killer is," I said. "Who?"

--------------------------------------------------------------

"So, Alli, how's the university?" Asked mom. "Mom, its splendid thanks to Zosia," He said and smiled. "He'd some problems with the locations and the schedule, but it's pretty good," I said. "So, plans for your anniversary?" Uncle asked and my parents nodded. "We plan for a garden party, since it's our twenty-fifth, we want it special not grande," My mom said and smiled. "Like our twenty-fifth last year, it's special, we just travelled to Korea." Allistair facial expression turned to annoyed. "And left me in Japan where there is a huge concert happening," He said and I just chuckled. "Akio, Ivy, twenty-fifth should be special, after that spend time with each other." My parents nodded and smiled.

"We plan on holiday after Zosia's debut," Dad said, and their eyes turned to me, I just smiled at them awkwardly. "What's your plan, Sia? Your eighteen roses?" Asked Auntie. "Mama, it doesn't matter as long as things go smoothly," I answered and she smiled.

--------------------------------------------------------------

"Here," I gave the books. "In chapter thirty-eight, who Robin presumed was responsible for the removal of the large number of Perspex frame from the wall?" He asked. "Kinvara," I answered and sat down on the floor in front of him as my bag beside me. "What's the colour of the helium balloons in shape of number eighteen danced over the crowd's head?" He asked again. "Bright blue," I answered again.

"What did Strike saw that had been removed in the field?" He asked again. "The injured horse," I answered.

"Chapter forty-five, who said, 'I'll give you plenty of warning if I think I'm actually going into labour,'?"

"Charlotte,"

"Who said 'She attacked Papa by a hammer' in Chapter thirty-two?"

"Izzy,"

"Last, who's the killer?"

"Raphael,"

"Great job, Sia," He said and ruffled my hair. "Next, the A.B.C Murders." He opened a random page and find some things. "Who're the victims?" He asked. "Alice Asher, Betty Bernard, and Sir Carmichael Clarke," I answered.

"Good, Crome is an...?"

"Inspector,"

"In chapter eight, various cars noticed in the vicinity of...?"

"Bexhill and Cooden,"

"Where does Poirot lives?"

"In Whitehorse mansion,"

"Who's the first person Poirot suspected?"

"Mr Asher, Alice Asher's husband,"

"Good, What's wrong with Lady Hermione and who is she?"

"She has cancer, and she is the wife of Sir Carmichael,"

"What happened on twenty-first Friday in chapter one?"

"Whacking great robbery takes place near Andover,"

"Final, who's the killer?"

"Easy, younger brother of Carmichael, Sir Franklin Clarke, I suspected him since,"

"Great job, Sia, how d'you do that?" He asked as he ruffled my hair again. "I'm not a dog and you know that, easy, multitasking, I read the 'A.B.C. Murders' while listening to 'Lethal White' that's how," I answered and he ruffled my hair again. "I'm not a dog," I repeated. "Cause you're a little kitten," He said and patted my head. "And I'm your bunny," I heard Win said and sat down beside me. "MY bunny," I heard Bright and put his arms around Win.

"Never thought flirting in front of a single lady here," I said while looking at them annoyed. "Eh, flirting in front of a little innocent kid, it is not a single lady," Bright corrected that made me roll my eyes. "By the way, what are you two doing?" Win asked as Bright sat beside him. "Our bet," I answered.

"Zosia should finish this two books in a day," Jake explained. "Did she?" Bright asked, and Jake nodded. "'The A.B.C. Murders' has two-hundred-fifty-six pages, first edition, hardback, as for the 'Lethal White', six-hundred-fifty-six pages." He looked at me and smiled and gave the book to the two guys to take a look. "'Lethal White' has one-hundred-ninety-six-thousand words, while 'The A.B.C. Murders' has fifty-two-thousand-two-hundred-fifty words, so, in a day, I read nine-hundred-twelve pages and two-hundred-forty-eight-thousand and two-hundred fifty words," I added.

"In a day?!" Win exaggeratedly asked, and we nodded. "As the prize for the winner," Jake said, and he stood up and I kneeled jokingly. "The prize since Zosia won. Since I'm happy today and in a good mood, I'll add two, two, two dollars," He said that made my smile dropped. "Just joking, I'll add two-thousand, that'll be seven-thousand." He opened his wallet and fished seven-thousand dollars. He put it in my hands, which is in the level with my forehead. "And the 'Lethal White' book, congratulations," He said as he put the book also in my hands and I stood up shaking his hand.

"Peace?" He asked. "Peace," I replied. "Stop playing you little kids!" Yelled Win that got attention of the other members as we sat down. "We're in peace," I said, and hold up the dollar if it was real or not. "Stop it! It's definitely real since I would not put fake money in my wallet," Jake said and pushed my hand down. Chills. I felt the chills again, the aura, the aura I felt since two days ago, I know it is undoubtedly the same aura, and it is within reach. "Hey, you good?" Asked Win, and I nod correspondingly. "You look pale." He put his hand on my forehead to check if I was okay. The aura, I think it feels stronger. "Excuse me, I need to go to the ladies' room." I walked away as they looked at me worriedly.

Splashing some cold water in my face, panting. The aura was back, and it feels stronger than the last time. Drying my face and my hands, I walked out of the room and got back to the club. "Great timing, the picking is almost starting," Win said as I sat beside him.

"So, since we have three bands here, the 690 Space, Sunset City and The Unknown Service, since we have three, as I the former president and Bright here the present, we discussed about having another band," Hexter announced while the crowd clapped.

"The name of the band is... drumroll please." Quian played the drum as we wait for the announcement. "Cupcake Balloon!" Our smiles dropped as we heard his corny band names again. "Here he comes again, having a corny band name," Philip said as the Live on their channel still recording. "If you don't want it, suggest," He said, and I raised my hand. "How 'bout Midnight Blues or Lunar Flower?" I suggested and Bright suddenly holds the mic. "Midnight Blues, I like that! Midnight Blues it is," He said and gave back the mic to Hexter.

"So, here are the members we discussed and wanted to be in a band." Hexter pulled out a piece of paper, same as Bright. "First, the drummer, he is in third year, let's see, a guy, and he is under me for three years until now, from BS Biology, drum roll please..." Here is the drum again, while the others, is anticipating. "Maddox," I whispered. "Maddox!"

"How d'you know?" Asked Jake. "Did you forget I have the same observation skills as Sherlock and as clever as Poirot? Other than Ismael, Maddox is a third year under Hexter's guidance, but I heard 'biology' and the first name in my mind is 'Maddox'" I answered. "Oh, right, even if you always observe like that and I know your talent, I'm still in shock," He said. "He's been pretty well playing these days," I said.

"Next, the bassist, he's in second year in English language and literature, under Earn's guidance for a year, and he's been the best since, drumroll please." They played again on the drum. "Redmond," I whispered again and Jake looked at me. "Redmond,"

"Bet ten dollars if you're wrong," He challenged me and put a ten-dollar bill on the floor in front of us and I put too. "Hey, are you two always betting?" Asked Win beside me as I was still focusing on the stage. "Seems like it," I answered.

"The next one, the keyboardist, he's in second year, but under Win's supervision, from science communication," The drum again. "Magnus," I whispered. "Wrong," He whispered back. "Magnus!" I quickly get the twenty dollars on the floor. "Dang it," He cussed.

"Next, the electric guitarist, third year, under Kairan's guide for just six months, from IT." I heard the drums again. "It's Gordon," I whispered. "No," He whispered back.

"Yes."

"No."

We keep repeating those words until the announcement came. "Gordon!" I again quickly get my twenty dollars bill. "Come up as we welcome the last member," Bright said and they soon walked on the little stage.

"The next one, she is the only she here, our vocalist, and also guitarist, under my guide for past few weeks, a first-year medical student, I don't know if it is the first time, but I found passion and potential in her for music, it's her first love, even though she's a freshman, I swear she's better than me or Win," Bright announced and I heard the drum again but no one came into my mind... who? You can count the ladies here since it's full of guys, especially from guitar. Chloe, but she's fifth year, or Violet, but she's graduating. No one came to my mind. "Chloe," I whispered without thinking. "Wrong," He whispered back.

"Zosia!" Ga?! (Me?!) Wait... means I lost? I saw Jake getting the money and wave it in front of me. I can't believe it?! I don't know it was me! "Sia, come up here," Hexter commanded, and I followed. "Are you two betting again?" Asked Bright. "Seems like it," I answered. "I almost slay it if I know myself better,"

"Slay it next time," Bright said and patted my back. "So, let's welcome our new band! Midnight Blues!" The other members clapped their hands as we stood there. Walking down the little stage and walk straight to Win and Jake. "Congratulations! You're in a band now!" Jake said and hugged me by my side. Chills. Again, the aura. "Hey! Distance!" Shouted Bright that made Jake let go. The Aura. It weakens.

"Hey, Win!" He greeted his lover, and his lover smiled. He's so f*****g cute! "s**t! Bright, are you okay?!" Win suddenly walks straight to Bright who's bleeding. "Hey, Sia, the heck?! You're also bleeding?!" Jake said as he put tissue in my nose. "Sorry, Win's too cute to resist," I said. The aura. I feel it again.

"She's right, you're pretty cute to resist," Bright said. "Oh, right Sia, can you spare time between one to three in the afternoon tomorrow?" He asked. "I don't have after lunch classes, but until three-thirty, I have a practice in volleyball," I answered, and he nodded. "I need to go now," I said and left with Jake.

"Hey, Sia, mind asking, why're you so weird inside, like you have chills?" Asked Jake. "I felt a pretty powerful aura, and it is odd, I dunno why, but it feels uncomfortable," I answered walking. "Hey, Sia, mind borrowing you?" Alli suddenly goes in front of me. His sight then turned to Jake. "Only you,"

"What's going on?" I asked. "The case Caius asked you to investigate, it's in the police now," He said that made me shocked. "What?!" I shouted at the car where we are in. "Let's go, fast!" I then ringed Jake, who is probably waiting for me.

"Hello, Jake, can you not wait for me? We'll hangout tomorrow, is it fine? Something came up,"

"No, it's fine, it's an emergency, take your time,"

"Thank you, bye,"

"Hang out?" He asked, and I nodded. "The one who won will treat for snacks," I answered. "He can't go out of the school without disguise since some crazy fans are following him sometime," I added. "And it seems that the girls have been busy lately, might be some presentation is due next three days," Alli said as he drives to the highway.

"Caius!" I cried as I saw my brother inside the station. "Is this the girl you're talking about?" A guy asked. He's in his coat, and it is not thick, he's out before Caius' here and just landed here, and I can tell he's a rookie. "Now, shall we sit down?" He asked, and we all sat down at the couch.

"Mind telling me why're you telling its murder that it is obviously suicide?" The guy asked. "Detective Tobias Crooke," He introduced. "Zosia Yamamoto, mind ask for a table, lamp, paper, ballpen, a table like a nightstand, mug and a g*n," I asked. "Please make the g*n unloaded."

"And I can tell that you're a rookie, sir Crooke, been here for months?" I started a conversation. "How did you know?" He asked. "Your I.D. seems new, and you look pretty young," I answered and he smiled. "You seem neat at observing than I thought, ms Yamamoto," He said and, alas, the things I asked are here inside the small room were in.

I moved the couch a bit and put the little table beside it. Like in the picture, I put everything there, and it looks like I set the room exactly like in the photo. "Can I have a chalk, please?" I asked, and they gave me one. I draw how the man was lying in the picture, the temple where the g*n was shot and put the unloaded g*n in the hand like in the photo.

"And last, where he left his suicide note," I said and put the note where the paper is exactly the same in the photo. "Now, sir Crooke, can you confirm that it is exactly like the photo?" I asked, and he nodded. The other police officers were in the door and the others were like in the glass. It's being crowded here.

"So, you just missed the important things, please look at this," I said and hold a cup, I sat down in the sofa beside the little table. "Did you notice something?" I asked, and he shook his head. "How bout the table there, and the little corpse I made?" I asked again, and he shook his head.

"You're dumber than I thought, Mr Crooke," I said as I stood up. "Excuse me?!" He cried. "Even a rookie detective can notice that it is a murder, not a suicide," I said and stood up beside him and took out my pen. "The nightstand, mug, lamp and pen, but I just noticed something earlier, something is missing, can you guess that, Detective Crooke?" I ask. "Sorry, I can't,"

"It's a little down heartening, Mr Crooke, I thought you will ace this when I gave you a hint," I said. "Then, let me show you the answer, and, Mr Crooke, don't be dispirited if you didn't solve this, every detective makes mistakes too, you'll solve this when you observe a little more," I added.

"The nightstand," I sat down at the sofa again beside the nightstand. "Notice, it's in my left." I then stood up and sat on the chair in front of the table. "The lamp, mug, pencil and the paper, it's all in the left and I just noticed, it has supposed to have an ashtray here," I said. "How can you say that?" He asked. "I just saw in his trash bin a case of cigarette and some used cigar there, and I use a magnifier glass and saw a bit of ash beside the lamp, the victim seems smoking," I answered.

"In conclusion, the victim is a left-handed person, but why is the g*n in his right hand? I suppose if he shot the g*n in with his right, it can miss, and make a cosmic accident," I concluded. "And ms Yamamoto, who do you know the murderer?" He asked, and I nodded. "The hint is in this paper, he is a chemist and it is very obvious who he is." I stood up and showed them the paper.

"And he is...?" Crooke asked. "I won't tell you since it won't be fun if I tell you and arrest him right after," I said. "What should we do?" Alli asked. "An entertaining magic show," I answered. "Can I ask a favour?" I asked, and he nodded. "Can I have the copy of the CCTV in the parking lot from seven-thirty till eight-forty in the evening?" I asked again. "I don't know what you are planning ms Yamamoto, but I think I can trust you," Crooke said and walked away.

"Nice investigating, Sia," Alli said, and I smiled. "Caius, is your mind in peace now?" I asked worriedly, it's rumbling in his mind often that made him not sleeping well. "Sia, thanks to you I can sleep well," He said, and I smiled. "Yamamoto, here it is," Crooke said and gave me a drive. "Thanks, now call the witnesses and tell them you will have an interrogation," I ordered, and he nodded walking out again.

I watch the video, and like the suspect I had in mind. I'm correct, I knew it was him. "Excuse me, Caius, can I ask you?" I asked, and he nodded. "Is the victim a social butterfly?" I asked. "Yeah, I assure he is, he's in top of the chart and was the employee of the month for three months straight," He answered. "And who's the second?" I asked, as he sat down beside me. "Nicolas, he is his right hand, they're close and I can tell they're best of friends," He answered again. A friendship, betrayal, what a cliche story we have here.

"I've called them and they're on the way," Crooke announced while walking to us. "What do you have now?" He asked. "A cliche friendship and betrayal story, fair enough to ask some questions," I answered him. "Can you tell me who the killer is?" He asked. "I can't, because I know that you'll glare at him or even some things, he can feel that we know that he killed his friend," I answered.

"Hey, Crooke! They're here," A police announced the suspects' arrival. "I'll be waiting in the interrogation room, please let Anna in first," I said and walked with an officer to the interrogation. "Um, hello?" I heard someone, and I turned my vision to her from the paper. "Hi, please take a sit," I said and offered the chair.

"Is there something happened on Timon's death?" She asked, and I shook my head. "No, I'm just going to ask some questions to confirm some things, mind if I?" I asked, and she nodded. "What's your relationship with Timon?" I asked again. "I was his girlfriend but broke up and I've been friends with him since then," She answered.

"I would like to ask if Nicolas and Timon are in grand terms?"

"They're, Timon's not hanging out with us since the time when he had the work and barely bond with us,"

"How 'bout the others?"

"We're all fine, but I can sense something from Nicolas, I think they have trouble in their work,"

"Can you tell me what happened?"

"We were out in the car, Nicolas called that he is on his way, we waited for him for a couple of minutes but we stopped cause it tired us waiting for him, we then went inside Timon's since we were gonna drink in his condo, when we were almost in his condo when suddenly Nicolas was there with Chris, we were shocked then he said, "I was running here since I'm almost late." Nicolas  was punctual like the old days. We ringed his bell a couple of times but he ain't answering, since I'm his ex, I know the code, but it was wrong, then Nicolas said he know since he go there sometimes when they'll discuss for work, and it was correct, then we go in his room and saw- and saw he was dead, I don't know what's wrong that made him kill himself,"

She sobbed and sobbed. I stood up and decided to stop, I walked her to the door and called Coree. "Hey," She greeted and I offer her a chair, she sat down in front of me while asking some questions about Chris. "He's in good terms with Timon, they look fine in my opinion," She answered. "That's all thank you and please call Chris," I asked and she walked out.

"Hello, sit down, please," I greeted, and he sits down. Like the others, I asked him but now about Anna. "They're together for three years, I don't know why they broke up," He answered. "But, let me tell you, I think Timon had an affair with someone while he was dating Anna, but I think they're fine," He added. "Thank you, please call Nicolas, please," I asked, and he went away.

"Hi." I heard a guy in the door, I turned to him from my phone and smiled. "Please sit down," I offered, and he sits down. "Mind asking you some questions?" I asked, and he nodded. "What happened before you witness the scene?" I asked again.

"I was at work and Coree called, she asked where I was and they're in Timon's condo, I answered I'm almost there and hastened to my car, when I parked I quickly go to the elevator and luckily I saw them and quickly ran to Chris," He answered. He's great at lying. I smiled at him and stood up. "Thank you, that's all please wait outside," I said and sat down.

"Is everything in the plan works now?" I asked Alli on the phone. "Yes, it is now smoothly great," He answered and I hang up. "Hello," I greeted them outside, and they did too. "Can you guys follow me?" I asked them and go to the room where the brief scene I made.

"Is this the exactly what you saw?" I asked and saw Anna crying, nodding and Coree comforting her while Chris and Nicolas nods. "What if I tell you that one of you is an impostor, well, how 'bout we play 'Among Us'," I recommended that they looked at me confused.

"As I said, one of you is the impostor, I think, this game's familiar with you all since it's pretty popular, and among us, is the impostor," I said and they looked at each other. "Who is the impostor?" I walked in circles in them as Chris suddenly beamed: "I think Anna's the impostor, they broke up and suspects him cheating on her, she then planned on threatening Timon and that's why he killed himself-"

"I WOULD NEVER EVER DO THAT!" Shouted Anna that made them flinched. "I would never ever do that even he and Coree had an affair! All the time! I love Timon even after he cheated on me with Coree, I would never do that to the love of my life!"

"How 'bout Coree, she's planning revenge after having an affair," Nicolas said. "THE f**k! I WOULD NEVER EVER DO THAT TO TIMON! I HAD LOVED HIM EVEN THOUGH I KNEW HE HAD A RELATIONSHIP AND MADE ME HIS MISTRESS!" Shouted Coree. "How 'bout Chris, huh? They were not on good terms after he knew he and Anna had s*x while he was waiting for their second anniversary. She was not there and I, I was the only one who comforted him,"

"Nicolas, he's angry at Timon after he took his place, what now, you plan on revenge?!" Asked Anna who is now fuming. "I WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO THE GUY WHO I LOVE AS MY BROTHER FOR NINE f*****g YEARS! NINE f*****g YEARS!" He yelled.

The Pandora's Box is now open, the secrets' now revealed, and the tea is boiling hot and tasty.

"Now, who's the impostor?" I asked while stopping, and Anna pointed at Nicolas, Nicolas pointing at Coree, Coree pointing at Chris and Chris pointing at Anna. "Want me to reveal?" I asked, and they all nodded.

"This is not a suicide, it's a murder," I said as Anna was sobbing hard so as Coree. "The impostor is you," I announced while pointing my pen at Nicolas. "What?! How can I?" He asked.

"Simple, let me tell you a story of the two best friends, months from now, Timon's working as a chemist with Nicolas, suddenly, Timon's the employee of the month, from sacrificing some time to hang out with you all and his blood, sweat and tears, Nicolas let it go since he thought that was luck since he is always on the top, but, he was in the month's employee for five consecutive months, Nicolas can't hold it back, so, he did some trouble and let Timon cover him up, but, before that, he wrote this, 28-27-57-16, then the thought of this code were from the atom number, 28, Nickel, Ni as the symbol, 27, Cobalt, Co, 57, Lanthanum, La, and 16, Sulfur, S, he made this codes to give this so they will make the person pay, Ni-Co-La-S, Nicolas. But, I was not so sure and needs some confirmation, Nicolas, aren't you said you were from work and running? But why are you wearing casual clothes? Changing is not an excuse when you said you quickly go to your car and ran on the elevator. Then I saw the CCTV footage, I saw this from seven-thirty-four, you said you were running late but you're the first one arrived, and you're wearing a formal clothes, you're from work here, and suddenly on seven-fifty-nine, you were now outside but blood on your polo and pants, and then at eight-twenty-one, I saw them and they waited for a couple of minutes, but and they went away, and a couple of minutes, I saw you went out of the restroom and now on casual clothes, I then confirmed that it was Nicolas, but I am still not contented, and I ask you all about their relationship to confirm why he did it, but, it was beyond my expectation what happened here,"

"Then, if you tell that I was the one who killed him, how did I murder him?" He asked. "I have some theories I had in mind, but this is the only one worked while we were walking here. Anna said you're punctual and rarely late except something happened, so you arrived an hour and a half earlier, then you go to his condo and saw him writing this code, and after a while, you noticed that the code was about you, so you asked him why, when you knew about how troublesome you are, you were fuming, while he was smoking, you shot him in his right temple, and soon, you realise what you did, you put the g*n in his right hand without thinking he's left-handed, and threw the ashtray away and the cigar, cause it has blood, you cleaned the bloodstains in the scene, then walked out to change," I answered and he grin nodding.

"I think no secrets will never reveal after all," He said as he was cuffed. "But, please, Chris, Anna, take care of the baby, Chris, you're the one Timon trusts for their baby, and Coree, find the right person and don't make everything quick, and last, visit me sometimes, we can hang out for a while, while I'm here," He asked while a drop of tear fell down in his eye. "Coree, take care of my son there with the person you will love,"

Coree sobbed with Anna as Chris comforted the two. "Is this... The magic trick you mentioned earlier?" Crooke asked. "Yes it was, but it's beyond my expectation," I answered. "Why?" I asked, and he looked at me, his eyes shining like the stars.

"Please don't look at me like that, Mr Crooke," I said and blocked my vision from him. "You're so amazing, can I call you anytime I need help?" He asked. "Can you sign my coat? And my hat? Even this pen?"

"No, I can't," I said, and I heard people clapping their hands. I looked near the door and saw police officers and others clapping their hands. "And please, don't let this out in public or I will never ever help you again, Mr Crooke," I said and received a message from our group chat.

'Hey! Dinner! My! Treat!'

'Where?'

'Ravista's Place near campus'

'On my way.|'

And send, I then look at Caius and Alli and nod at them. "Mr Crooke, this is my number if you need any help, but if not, don't expect that I'll reply or answer, got it?" I asked, and he nodded as the paper I gave him in his hands. "Thank you for today, Ms Yamamoto," He said and I nod.

"Sai, we should go now, thank you," He said as we walked away the room. "How d'you do that?" Asked Caius beside me. "Need to observe, execute and pile the important things," I answered. "Please faster, drop me in the University please," I asked and off we go.

"Jake! Finally you're here, shall we go now?" I asked as I saw Jake panting in front of me. "Luckily, it was my last class for today, and hand me some water," He said and I did what he asked. "So what happened?" He asked.

"Confirming a shitty suicide that it is actually a murder," I answered and looked at him, he's wearing a cap and mask since might be someone will see him and we need to run away. "How?" He asked again. "The victim's lefthanded, but the g*n was in his right hand," I answered while showing him how it happened. "And I did an interesting magic trick, but happened was beyond my expectations,"

"What happened?" He asked again. "The Pandora's box was opened," I answered, and he looked at me confused. "What I mean was, they now revealed the secrets of their group, it was beyond what I expected," I explained. "You're amazingly insane," He compliments. "Thank you, and here we are, Ravista's Place," I said as we walked in and walked inside the room Hexter reserved.

"Sia!" I heard someone calling my name, I looked who he is, and it was Bright, running ready to  embrace me, I quickly backed away resulting he's hugging Jake. I quickly took a photo before they repel. "Bright," I heard Win who is now beside me, I showed him the photo and he snickered.

"What's funny?" He asked. "Nothing," Win answered. "Sit down now, the orders' almost here," Hexter said, and I sit beside Win and Jake on the table near Hexter's. The foods' arrived and there're so many, steak, fried chicken, and many other foods. "Here's for you, ice tea," Bright said, smirking while holding the glass with ice tea. "Can you put it inside a glass beer mug?" I asked and a worker get my ice tea and came back with the glass beer mug with ice tea inside. "Thank you,"

"Poor Sia, not able to drink beer, just ice tea," Bright said smirking again, Jake patted my back while Win glared at Bright. "We are here today, to celebrate another band who'll join us, the Midnight Blues! Next month, they will debut as a group while performing in the event where the clubs will show their talent for three days." The members clapped their hands and lifted their mugs. "For Midnight Blues!"

Then, suddenly, through the aura, I felt it again; I looked where the aura went and I saw the band shooting eyes at me; I stared at them in horror. "Hey, you good?" my conciousness went back and nod at him. "I'm good," I answered and glance at them and they're good but looking at me every five seconds.
