Daegu that afternoon was so gray. Hundreds
people scatter in the field of a Daegu's largest elite school
it is called the DIS abbreviation. The sound of crying, despairing, unexpected, and
all the expressions of the unrepresented blend one with hundreds of lifeless bodies
it's in every corner of the school. Despite hugs, shocks,
even the desperate mockery thrown from those people would not
waking the bodies back up, the sobs are getting worse. Arrivals
ambulance, police cars, to the military with sirens, and lights
that penetrated the speck of rain that afternoon made the atmosphere even more slicing of heart.
“How are conditions in all corners
school?” ask Mark Tuan, the captain of the detective division who led the investigation in
TKPA. Mark is from the Seoul police department, but has just returned
assigned to lead the investigation of cases that have been designated as cases
national.
“There is no life, Brother. All
killed.” replied Jung Jeffrey, CSI team captain (Crime
Scene Investigation).
Mark sighed, calming
his mind. Just last night he managed to sleep eight hours, due to a stint
last finished. Now, he must return to the field for that case
bigger and mysterious in this biggest school in Daegu city.
“Sister, Lee Taeyong forensic expert
already in place” reports Kim Dean, Seoul police junior detective with a breath
gasps.
“Good. Dean, Jeffrey, go
if TKP with others.” command Mark then walk half run
towards the main gate, where Lee Taeyong was waiting for him.

19.30 KST
Investigative team, CSI, and experts
forensics has gathered at Daegu police force as a makeshift headquarters. Ambiance
very crowded, hundreds of people came to report the death of the members
his family. The cries of those people were so loud and heartbreaking, making
the atmosphere of the night in winter was getting cold and sad.
“Good Night. We'll get started soon
emergency meeting tonight. Starting from Chairman Jung, what clues were found
at TKP?” mark straightforward.
“We have done an investigation
for 6 hours and found no trace of the perpetrator. But we took some
photo of the corpse, and it looks like we can make a clue.”
Jeffrey then directed
the pointer is on a projector screen and displays photos of dozens of bodies in the room
classrooms, kitchens, toilets, teacher rooms, to canteens. Jeffrey gave a circle
red on the facial expression, gesture, and motion system of the corpse.
“We see here, the victim's expression
indicating an expression before dying like in pain, his eyes opened,
his hands clenched, legs folded, mouth wide open. There are no signs
hardness due to blows, sharp objects, blunt objects, and the like.”
“What found sharp objects or
weapons there?” ask Taeyong
“It is impossible if the victims
killed with a sharp object or the like, too many in number, too many,
also not found a drop of blood there.” explained Mark. Everyone seems to
think.
“Ah wait, how about the recording
CCTV?” this time Dean asked.
“Collapsed partially, and no
showing the time and initial recording of the victims falling.” Answer Jeffrey
half frustrated.
“Doctor Lee, have your side already
performing autopsy?”
“Sedang. We did an autopsy
randomized to the victim in each different location in the school. Hope for us
getting an initial picture of the case occurs based on the time of death
victim”
“When will the autopsy result be released?”
“At the earliest three days later,
around 10:00 AM.”
“From a biomedical point of view, and
forensic psychology, what is your hypothesis?”
“This possibility is caused by a toxin
which attacks the central nervous system, based on
the condition of the corpse, plus the incident so quickly.” replied Taeyong, making
everyone focused on him with a sharp and serious look.
“If this is due to toxins, toxins
what is it like and given through what?” ask Jeffrey
“For the type of toxin we will
waiting for autopsy results. It is possible that this toxin is given through food.
Recalling this incident occurred in the three hours after lunch.” Taeyong
convictionfully.
“It’s
makes sense. Dean, please find information on the schedule of activities and regulations
the school, especially whether they are required to have lunch at school with
same meal, same time.” Quick Mark command
“Good, Brother. Maybe tomorrow morning ak—”
“Now! Not hard to find
such information.” cut Mark with his stern look and tone.
“Ah, Okay.” Dean replied, He has
hapal the work style of his impatient senior. He immediately opened
mobile phones and typing some keywords in online search engines.
The meeting ended, because
the key evidence expected to come from the results of the new autopsy will come out three
later days. Before returning, they must attend a brief press release
it will be led by Daegu County police chief Song Mino
“We are so sorry
deeply for the incident that befell your family. Till the time
this, we have not been able to draw conclusions regarding the perpetrator or possible motives
from this incident.” said Mino opened the press release. The police office page
the story of the journalists and the families of the victims was so quiet in the night wind
which is getting colder. Mark and the team behind him were also present while installing
flat expression and fatigue.
“However some hints are
leading there we have collected. We hope you all can wait
this legal process takes place, and is given fortitude over these events.” tones
his speech now seemed a little cold trembling implying a sense of sadness,
frustrated, angry, and staring at the victim's family who had been there this afternoon
crying in front of the police station.
“Such information that I can
convey. I hope you can all relax your mind, get back to where you belong
each one, and rest. Good night.”
The press release is over.
The mass crowd slowly began to decrease although it remained crowded. Seemed all over
the police disbanded, as did Mark and Dean. They
who always come home together, to the same apartment, in the same car.
There was no conversation between the two during the trip from the office yard
to the car park, before Dean stopped his tracks.
“Kak, that school has meal hours
scheduled noon, at school, and have a partnership with a food supply company.”
