[IT’S NO MORE A SECRET]
Sunday,1st April 2018
It’s been a month since my mini birthday party and the day that I got
the new case. But I couldn’t find anything, the case was so perfect. No sign,
no fingerprint, no evident. Now my hates to the bastard grew more and more. I
had no clue what to do. The culprit was so cleaver and amateur.
The file had not much information. What I knew about the culprit from
the file was the culprit is a man. It’s impossible for woman to knock down a
man, most of the victims are men.
Also, Robert who was the forensic expert that was assigned with the case
told me that the culprit was a left-handed. Based on the post-mortem, some of
the victims had a left-handed grip effect on their throat. Plus, the slice on
their bodies were from right to left.
Normally if you are the right-handed, you will slice from left to right.
So that’s the strong evidence that the murder is a left-handed. The last clue
from the case that I knew was the mini white card that had a capital letter ‘C’
in calligraphy. That’s all what I had from the case.
I had asked Juliet to look at the roadside CCTV if we could get
something from there. I put down the file and took the plastic bag that had the
mini white card in it. I looked carefully to the card. I had no idea what on
earth the meaning of the card. I exhaled. I really hate it when I can’t solve
something.
Knock…knock…
“Come in.” I said while putting the plastic bag on the table and leaned
my back at the chair.
“Hey, are you okay? Do I interrupt you?” Leo walked in and sat in my
bed. I twisted my chair to face him.
“Yeah I’m okay. And you are not disturbing me.” I said while closing my
eyes.
“What’s wrong? Just tell me maybe I can help?” I put down my hand, but
my eyes were still closed.
“Actually I can’t tell you anything since it is one of the rules. Ermmm…
But maybe you can help me yea?” I opened my eyes. Then I twisted my chair to
face the table. Leo walked to me.
“What do you think about this?” I pointed to the card. He took the
plastic bag and examined it.
“Maybe it refers to a name or something? It’s like a short name or maybe
a sign name? Like me, I love to use LK that refer to my name Leonardo Knight.
The C maybe refer to his name and the background refer to his family name like,
White maybe. That’s my opinion.” Leo said putting back the card on the table. I
looked at him in shocked.
“OMG. Why do I never think something like that? Why am I so stupid? You
are so genius, Leo!” I jumped from my chair and hugged him.
“Well, as you know I’m always clever, handsome, smart, rich…” I covered
his mouth with my hand.
“That’s enough. I just say you’re clever, don’t exaggerate. You know
what, just forget what I had said to you.” I sat on my chair. “Anyway, why do you
come up here?” I said while cleaning up my table.
“Actually, I came here to bid a good bye.”
“What? Why so sudden? Do you really wanna go now, this late? It’s almost
12 you know? Why don’t you wait until tomorrow morning?” I asked in disbelieve.
I stopped what I was doing and turned to him.
“Yes, we will go tonight. It’s because Tom got an important call just
now. So we had no choice.” He said while looking at me. I couldn’t help but
hugged him tightly. He hugged me back.
“I hope we will meet again. Soon. Very soon.”
Then we went to down stair. I saw mom, aunty and Alice talked at the couch
while dad and Uncle Tom were talking outside. After a few minutes, I saw their
car rolled down the road. I felt gloomy and just I hope we will meet again.
