Arabella And Beauty System

Visiting the Victim's Residence

"I'm. I've been in Detective, ma", replied Arabella slowly.

His mother closed her mouth in surprise.

"Why... Why don't you ask permission from mommy first, Arabella?"

Arabella was silent for a moment to answer him.

"Because I know you won't allow it" Arabella replied quietly.

His mother was silent for a moment while looking at Arabella seriously.

"You sure about that? Since when did you get in on the detective?"

"A month ago, ma"

"What's the reason you want to be a detective?"

Then there was silence again.

"Ng. because it wants to, ma. You know how I used to love reading books about detectives?"

"Yes, but you yourself often tell your mother that being a detective is troublesome and terrible. That's why mama was surprised why you arrived as a detective" replied her mother.

The woman sits herself on the bed.

"Mama's just afraid something bad happened to you. You know that, right? Being a detective is risky" said the woman in a soft tone.

Although Arabella's only job was to interview and search for traces of the killer in the cctv, but still Arabella often can not sleep thinking about it.

But he himself can not be separated from the detective just like that. He has entered into an agreement with the Queen System. After all, he had also fallen in love with his duty.

"I promise, ma, I'll be fine"

"Who can guarantee that?", asked the woman with a sad face.

"Arabella, you're an only child. If something bad happens to you, I won't be able to forgive myself" continued the woman who made Arabella stunned.

"I won't let you down, ma"

At 2pm, Arabella was preparing to go visit her cake shop. But he just came out of his room..

Drrt. drrt..

Nael called. He immediately picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Arabella, have you seen Edo's body?", asked Nael across the street.

"Yet. What's wrong?"

"I'd like to invite you to follow up on the beginning of the murder at his house, and also to find out how the autopsy process works"

"Np... An autopsy? It looks like it's gonna be terrible. I'm.."

"Not looking at the autopsy process. I mean, just so you can get to know a little bit about how it's an autopsy process" cut the guy down.

"Is that important to detectives like us?", asked Arabella.

"Of course"

Arabella thought for a moment.

"All right, I'm going"

After hanging up the phone, Arabella cancels to go to the cake shop. He finds a taxi to meet Nael at the main police station.

*

Arriving at the police station, Arabella was immediately met by several detectives he knew. Vilia, Chriss, and Nael. Also Mr. Steve and Mr. Hans.

"We brought Vilia and you so you could both find out what to check first in a house suspected to be the scene of murder" Nael said, giving Arabella the creeps.

"Alright", said Arabella trying to spirit, although in fact she was very trembling. He was afraid of being terrorized by the killer for trying to trace the case.

"Don't tremor, Arabella"

Arabella wave when she saw Vilia who arrived was already behind her.

"Ng. hehe, no really"

"Alright, everyone goes to the designated car. We will leave soon", said Mr. Steve who stood some distance away from them.

After that aba aba, everyone immediately entered their respective cars.

After a 5-minute drive through a small road, the two cars driven have reached the front yard of a tiny house.

"This is Edo's house?" asked Arabella.

"Yes", Nael answered while stopping his car.

Arabella and Vilia looked at each other after seeing the house.

The house looks empty. From the outside of his glass window, it looked so dark from inside.

Arabella and Vilia nodded. After the man slowly opened the car door, Arabella and Vilia also opened the car door. Then the two slowly followed Nael's footsteps.

Mr. Steve and Mr. Hans did the same. They held a gun and walked to settle the precipitate, looking to the right and left as if there was someone attacking. They also each carry a black shield as a protector.

"The door of his house is open" whispered Mr. Steve after they were all near the front door.

Mr. Steve gave the code so that no one would open the sound. Master steve pointed his shield forward, then with his right hand, he pushed the door quickly.

After checking in that no one was present, Nael, Mr. Hans, and the others immediately entered the house.

Arabella immediately felt a chill that made her body creep when entering the door.

"It's very dark", whispered Arabella to Vilia.

"That's because all the lights are off" Vilia replied

"Oh, yes, right, I just realized" Arabella said.

"We should just turn on the lights, to facilitate the investigation. It's very dark here" said Mr. Hans, who was taken in by Mr. Steve.

Mr. Hans immediately turned on the nearest light switch.

When the two lights were on, Arabella was surprised to see that there were many blood spots on the floor. The bloodstained was more precisely located about three meters behind the living room sofa.

Nael approached the blood patch. He noticed all the blood on it. It turns out that blood is also on the wall. On the wall, there is a red cut. Surely it's blood.

In addition, on the wall also tendered a mop. There were a lot of red on the white mop. Arabella thinks that the mop was the killer's former mopping the victim's blood a little.

After finishing noticing the blood spots, Nael turned to look at the tv room which was only a meter away from the blood spots earlier.

After checking there, Nael walked up to Arabella and Vilia who had been still in place.

"According to the two of you, what are the things in this room that might leave fingerprints?", asked Nael.

"Hm.. The handle of the mop?", asked Arabella.

"Glass there? I saw blood on the front glass of the sofa" Vilia continued.

"You two were right. I will check one by one" Nael said as he walked towards the mop that was tendered on the wall near the blood spot earlier.

Nael notices the mop from a distance first, as if looking for an oddity from it. He crouched down and furrowed his eyebrows when he found a small piece of paper tucked in the mop.

"There's a letter" said Arabella, who realized it.

Nael immediately took the letter. There, visible writing upright continuous, writing that has been very well known by Arabella.

I purposely left my fingerprints so stupid cops like you could find me. Where are my fingerprints! Now find me!

Arabella who read it took a sip of saliva because she was starting to get scared. The killer seems to know they don't stop looking. Arabella felt that the killer knew them all, including her.

"It seems that the victim was killed in this place, then moved to an empty room on the campus" Mr. Hans told Nael.

Arabella thought so. Because according to him, there is no way in Edo's house there is this much blood if not this is the blood of Edo who was killed.

"I think so too. Because what we saw when we got to that classroom, the bodies of the victims were already dried up. There are no blood spots there", continued Mr. Steve.

Nael nodded understandingly.

"Are there no knives or sharp objects left in this place sir?"

"Nothing"

After that, Nael stood up and put the letter in his pocket.

"So after checking the fingerprints, we'll go to the autopsy immediately?", asked Nael.

"It seems that's all we can do this time. Because there are no other traces left" replied Mr. Steve.

While Mr. Steve and Nael were talking, Arabella walked a small path to look around the television room.

The TV is not on. There were some traces of potato chips spilling on the floor and on the front desk of the sofa. Arabella finds a small box on the couch. A gift box.

Arabella frowned in wonder, then approached the box. There was a small paper on it. The writing is straight.

A little suprise for cops and stupid detectives like you

Arabella clenched her hand in anger at reading the text.

"Nael, there's a gift box here", call Arabella quietly.

The man approached the sofa. Mr. Steve and Mr. Hans also followed. When Nael opened the box, Arabella closed her eyes with her hands.

There's a cut of the day inside that town. There was also a lot of blood.

"It's crazy" said Vilia. The girl also still closed her eyes with her hands.

Arabella tried to open her eyes slowly, daring to look at the cut of the finger.

"There's another letter here" Nael said, then took a small letter tucked in the finger piece there. Nael took it casually, his face remained cold, not looking scared at all.

Arabella tried to look closely, and also saw the contents of the letter which was slightly affected by the blood spots.

The content is only a short writing, with continuous upright writing that they are very familiar with. But this time, the killer drew a smile emoji at the end of the sentence.

Quickly find me, before I find you :)
