Boyz Chase: The Mystery of Saranjana City
02. New Email
Today was a very boring Friday. All the lessons have also ended considering that the Final Semester Assessment has also been completed this past week. So, they were released and most were empty hours.
Eric was walking alone somewhere, but he was definitely circling the corridors of class X, XI, and XI to use up all his energy. He was a little bored because he had to be left alone by his 2 best friends and also his twin brother.
Jevan and Arashya today have basketball practice for next month's game. They want to be the best, so before the game they have been training from far away. Meanwhile, Narendra is busy struggling with some colorful liquid in the school laboratory. Usually he conducts individual experiments with some of the science he can and reads.
“Gue wonder, why are all the others busy today? Am I the only one who has no other activities?” he muttered as he started entering the corridor of class X as he started his journey from the corridor of class XI.
During the journey only silence existed. Eric smiled back at the people who greeted him several times. Suddenly the phone in his pocket rang, indicating that there were several incoming messages. Eric immediately grabbed his phone and checked the message.
“It turns out there are 3 incoming e-mails. Isn't that too much?” ask him to yourself. He who was still standing finally approached on a long bench in front of the school health clinic which was located in the corridor of class X.
Jemari nimbly opened and read the e-mail earlier. Eric frowned in surprise when he found strange messages that the sender was also unclear.
“What is this continuation of terror?” he muttered while showing his slanted smile.
Good day, Eric Devandra.
It's good to be able to call you again…
I know you're bored today, right?
That's the message Eric received. After a few minutes, Eric smiled happily.
“Do you even know that I'm bored?” he said while laughing.
The phone rings again.
My guess is correct. Therefore, enjoy the surprise that I will send you. I hope you're surprised by it.
“I think he's really watching me this time.” —in Eric.
His eyes skimmed every inch of the place nearby to see if anyone was watching him or how. However, his efforts did not bear fruit because along the corridor there was nothing suspicious for him.
“Well. I'll wait for the surprise. I want to see what you can do to relieve my boredom,” said Eric slowly and then walked back around the corridor of class X.
There's nothing that interested Eric there. Except, when he suddenly saw a young man running in panic from the end of the corridor. He realized that the running young man was his classmate, Harris Abraham.
Eric then sped up to Harris. He looks scared. “Lu why, Ris? Why are you running around in class X corridor rich gini?” asked Eric curiously.
Harris looked at Eric expectantly. He gripped the second on Eric's shoulder tightly. “Ric! I swear I am so scared of this.” he said with a breath of gasp.
“Lu scared what? Try to slow down, blahin. Take your breath first, it's calm then you can tell me.”
Harris nodded slowly and began to regulate his breathing. “Ric! You must not believe that I found a dead body in the backyard of the school.” Harris replied.
“Corpse? You sure what you saw was a corpse? Not the one who fainted or something?” eric asked, squinting his eyes.
Harris shook his head, “ngga, Ric! I'm sure it's a dead body because there's blood all around!” yells.
Eric becomes astonished, “kronologinya? Couldn't you just suddenly find a dead body there?” ask Eric.
“Gue doesn't know for sure either, Ric. Just by chance I passed to the backyard because I wanted to go to the school warehouse just like Felix.”
“Ngapain both of you to the school warehouse?”
“So Mr. Vernon's teacher told me to take Felix to get a soccer ball for practice. In addition to basketball matches, our school will also want to play football,” explained Harris.
Eric nodded in understanding then realized something was lacking. “So you said the two were the same Felix. Keep now Felix where?” tanyakanya.
Harris recalled his friend, “Felix is a blood phobia. I'm sure after we see that he'll be vomiting. That's why he ran, he probably went to the toilet!” harris exclaimed then left Eric who was still in his place to catch up with Felix.
After some time, he finally ran a small run to go up to the 2nd floor precisely to the school laboratory to look for Narendra.
Arriving there, without warning Eric just entered the laboratory and surprised Narendra.
“Ric! You are in the habit of entering the room ga permission or excuse me first!” narendra grumbled that his eyes had stumbled by the microscope because Eric immediately patted his shoulder slowly.
The scolded one only laughed with a sinless face. “Na, I want to ask for sterile gloves dong,” pinta Eric while extending his hand in front of Narendra.
Narendra astonishment, “make what sterile gloves? You're not gonna be weird, are you?” tanyanya.
“Ck, yes, Na. I just want to check the bodies in the backyard.” Eric clucked then immediately grabbed the glove Narendra was holding.
Narendra glared in disbelief at what he heard. “Lu seriously, Ric? Any bodies in the backyard?”
“Seriously, Harris was with Felix. Coincidentally I was breathing with Harris and he told me,” reply Eric while wearing gloves.
“How do they go?”
“Ya ga how. Now I want to check the body. Harris went to the toilet and found out he was blood-phobic. He vomited, ” replied Eric who then passed leaving the laboratory followed by Narendra behind him.
“Lu know, Na? It's a surprise for me to know.” Eric said on the sidelines of their trip to the backyard.
“You mean surprise?” Narendra tilted his head in confusion.
“Iya, I just got a new e-mail. Said the sender he wanted to give me a surprise.” After saying so, the two turned to go down the stairs next door as the fastest way to the backyard.
“So the corpse in the backyard that we will check is the work of him?” ask Narendra again.
Eric smiled faintly, “there are two possibilities, yes and no. Because maybe he did it with his own hands, or he could have an accomplice that he asked for this practice,” replied Eric who increasingly accelerated his steps.
They are now in the back yard of the school. And, sure enough, there they found a corpse lying stiff with blood all over its clothes. There was no one there, only the body was lying. The location is also somewhat closed because it is blocked by bushes.
Narendra and Eric pulled the corpse's leg out of the bush and they were able to freely check the state of the corpse.
“What do you think, Na?” eric asked to release his hand on the body of the man's corpse.
“Well. This is Brother Brian son XII MIPA-3.” Narendra noticed the face of the corpse, half of which had been covered in blood due to serious injuries to the head.
Eric began crouched down to check the details of the body allegedly named Brian Jefferson. He checked the face, then the clothes, and so on which allowed him to get information about the incident.
“Hm, his blood has begun to thicken and brownish. More or less the victim died an hour ago.” Eric touched the victim's blood that had coagulated it.
“Your estimate for what murder weapon, Ric?” narendra looked from afar. He didn't squat with Eric.
“He died of a wound to the head. I think if this corpse is autopsied, it will be discovered if the skull is cracked. He's been hit so many times and I'm sure that Brian's brother isn't standing still. He had time to fight the killer, therefore his condition looks a rich mess gini. Out of annoyance, finally the killer firmly hit his head several times and leaked,” explained Eric who then stood up from his crouching position.
“What blunt weapon can the killer wear? Especially this in the school area, Ric.”
“We think it is now. What do you think, Na? What weapons can he get around here? Remember, it's a blunt object, it's definitely bigger than a knife and he's going to have a hard time taking it away. So, that weapon must still be around here.” Eric said that made Narendra immediately circulate his view.
His eyes focused on a block of wood lying near the door of the warehouse. “Gue thinks the weapon could be the wooden beam, Ric,” said Narendra who approached to retrieve it.
“Try check!” eric's orders were directly carried out by Narendra.
He looked at the wooden block seriously. “For blood spotting there isn't, Ric. Only, if you smell this block of wood there is a fishy smell of blood,” said Narendra who thrust it back to Eric.
Eric nodded, “lu's right, Na. Now you can call your dad for this. This case must be dealt with immediately, because it could be a serial murder,” told him.
Narendra immediately contacted his father regarding this matter so that Kak Brian's body can be buried properly.
