(ENG) Chapter Three - Ghost Encounter

While at school, rumors circulated among the students that the teacher who had drowned was pushed by the suspect. In addition, also there is a rumors that says the teacher's vengeful spirit was seen wandering around the swimming pool.

That afternoon Singto was correcting the student test and feeling sleepy, so he decided to buy a cup of coffee in the cafeteria.

When he passed the corridor leading to the swimming pool, he seemed to see someone's shadow at the end of the hallway, though at this time the pool area was still closed by the police line.

Singto immediately swallowed hard and tried to think positively, that he was having hallucinating because of sleepy. But when he was about to leave that place, suddenly he heard the sound of pool water, as if someone had jumped into the pool.

He immediately wondered if anyone had accidentally fallen into the pool, his fear was replaced by worry, so he immediately dashed into the pool to check it without thinking.

Singto walked with wide pace towards the pool, for a second the rumors about the spirit that he heard made his heart rate increase as twice. However, he tried to gather up his gut, dragged his feet closer to the gate and stepped inside.

He walked carefully to the edge of the pool while keeping his distance from the police line.

Singto widened in shock and his heart as stopped when he saw that the surface of the pool looked wavy, as if something had just splashed in, but he did not see anything in the pool. The hair on his nape was standing up immediately, his eyes glanced across the corner of the pool area in pounding, while praying quietly that he won't see anything that wasn't real.

Suddenly someone tapped him on the shoulder and startled him from behind.

Singto turned his head and nearly punched the man's face, wherein Phana swiftly caught his fist and twisted his arm to his back.

Singto grimaced in pain and tried to free himself, he could see several policemen arrived and watching him from behind.

"What were you doing at the crime scene?" Phana asked in an interrogating tone before releasing him.

Singto immediately turned around and grabbed his wrist which hurt, then raised his face to look at the man with an annoyed expression.

"Why did you startled me from behind?!! I almost had a heart attack, I thought I saw a ghost!!!"

Phana tried to hold laughter and tried to ignore the joke.

"My team and I just arrived about five minutes ago and find you here..." said Phana. "What are you up to? Are you trying to get rid of the evidence by destroying the crime scene?" he accused.

"What are you saying?!!" exclaimed Singto in disbelief. "What would I do that?"

"I remember you promised the father of the suspect to help his daughter free from charges ..."

"I instead want to find clues to prove her innocence, because I believe she could not possibly committed the murder..."

"Even though you are right, but she saw the victim fall into the pool and did not try to save her, that just the same as murdered..." Phana emphasized.

Singto did not want to argue about that.

"Well, I-I'm sorry for what happened to the victim...but...what had happened can't be undone, even though Mai is imprisoned, the dead can't come back to life..."

"I don't agree with what you say, even though the dead can't come back to life but justice must be upheld and the guilty must be punished...I don't think I need to teach you this theory, right?"
