The Professor's DEATH

HEXAGON WITH A DOT

KAORIE/ZERO WAN

Breaktime came and I went to the cafeteria. I bought my snacks and roam my eyes at everyone. Some of them are busy eating their foods, while others are busy talking to each other and few of them are busy on their phones.

A single table caught my attention. No one's using that so I made my way to that table and sat comfortably on the single chair. I then eat my food alone.

After eating, I grab my phone and starts writing the next part of my story.

"Thank you for that wonderful night, love." My professor said then kissed me on my lips for a few seconds.

Last night was amazing. We became one, me and my hot professor. I never regret what happened between us. In fact, it was the best thing that had happened to my life.

I looked at the man who is now peacefully sleeping beside me.

"Thank you for making me a woman completely." I murmured before I fell into my deep slumber.

I saw it on my peripheral vision a woman in her thirties who walked towards Mrs. Adelaide, the owner of the school's cafeteria.

Moments later, the bell rang. It's time for my next subject. I stand up from my seat and so the other students. Yet suddenly,

"Ugh!" BLAAAGG!

I got freeze to where I am standing.

"Ahhh!!!" The students ran out from the cafeteria. They all seemed shock and scared at what happened.

I turned my back around and to my horror, I saw the woman earlier, lying on the ground with an arrow pierced right on her chest, to where her heart was located. Her blood scattered on the ground.

"Can somebody call an ambulance?" I asked almost shouting.

"Move!"

"Give a way." I commanded

"Ms. Naomi!" Someone called. It was a woman in her mid-40s. She was about to go to the woman she called Naomi, when I suddenly uttered "Don't!"

Her eyes was seeking for an answer but instead of answering her, I was the one who go near the victim. I checked her pulse but I can feel nothing.

"Miss, Can you hear me?" No response

"Blink your eyes twice if you can hear me." I again said but still no response.

While checking her vital signs, I lift my head up as I declare the most horrible words.

"She's dead." Everyone gasped. Who wouldn't? Seconds has only passed but the victim was already lifeless.

"You." I pointed out the woman. "Go to the President's office and report this incident." I said.

"You." Pointing my finger at a freshmen student. "Call the police." The girl then hurriedly open up her phone and obey what I've said.

"And you." Calling Mrs. Adelaide. "Give me an extra gloves." The woman rushed inside and came back holding a gloves. She handed it to me and I put it on my hands.

Grabbing my pen and a paper, I started writing. "What is her name?" I asked "Naomi Pertiz."

I continued asking for some basic information of the victim and wrote it into a piece of paper.

I then examined the dead body of a woman without ruining any other possible evidences.

My eyes darted on the arrow and a red piece of cloth was tied into it. Before anyone finds out, I got it and slid it inside my blouse. This will be for now. With my clear eyesight, I spotted something carved into the arrow. It's a hexagon with a red dot on the middle of it. I was about to touch it when I heard a familiar voice coming from behind.

"Who gave you the permission to touch that, lady?" As I turned around, I saw two gentlemen standing few steps away from me.

I forced a smile revealing my braces. "Oh, hi Prof." He just ignored me and say, "Go back to your classroom." I nodded and start walking.

Before I leave, I handed Dash the paper containing different basic informations.

I turned my back at them and started walking away from the crime scene.

A few moments after, I heard the sound of the police cars and then it stopped.

Few meters away, I can see Dash handled the paper I gave to him to the police-in-charge.

"I'm sorry for taking something away." I muttered as I blew out a deep sigh.

The room was a big mess. Students are terrified after the incident that they have witnessed.

An hour after, a voice from the broadcasting studio echoed on the entire education department.

"All classes are suspended due to the crime happened. The police secured the whole area and they already made sure that your way into your respective houses are all safe from any harm. Please be advise to wait for your parents to fetch you in this school for your own safety. Thank you!" With that, the students hurriedly went out of the room.

I was left alone in the room. Before I leave, I texted Dash to come at the agency and wait for me in my office.

I drove my car away from Morim Institute. I made my way to my condo unit and parked my car into my little parking lot.

As soon as I went inside, I changed myself back as Kaorie. Using my other car, I drove off towards the agency.

"Hey." Dash said with an annoying smile plastered on his annoying face.

"Here." He handed me something.

"What's this?" I asked curiosly

"Food. Eat first before we talk. I know you're hungry." He then sat on my sofa.

"So generous of you, Mr. Darker." I teased

He just smiled and I ate the food in silence. After eating, we discussed something related to what happened earlier.

"Here." I handed him the piece of red cloth. As he opened it, we were both surprised by the written word on it.

"WELCOME –" I read it out loud.

"It's welcome 'Dash'." He corrected me. I thought, it's a cutted statement.

"Do you mean, he know you?" I asked using my serious tone

"Yes, we can say that." He answered

"Do you know about the symbol that was carved on the arrow?" I asked again

"Nah, don't have any idea 'bout it." It's a complete stranger for the both of us.

A man in his three piece suit came inside my office.

"Good morning, Mr. Wits." We both greeted him.

"Haven't I told you to not meddle with the police works, Detective Kaorie?" He looked like a mad man.

"I'm sorry it won't happen again." I shook my head as I said those words.

"You just put yourself in public. I told you to lie low and work on a completely different task that I gave you." He seems problematic. I just didn't utter a single word.

"Now what?" He asked

"Have you know a thing about a hexagon with a dot?" Dash asked and he raised his brows. We tried seeking for his answer but we just wasted our time looking at him who seems not interested on what our saying.

"Let the police close the case." Mr. Wits said and leave the room.

"So, what now?" I asked facing Dash.

"We'll work on this matter, don't worry." He said as he patted my head.

"Stop it Calderon. I am not a pet." I told him out of annoyance.

"It's Professor X for you, Ms. Wan. Nice outfit, by the way." 'What a two-faced moron.' I mumbled as I throw death glares at him.

"Damn You, Calderon!"
