David's pov
It was days since my last murder...which was Preston. I framed it as suicide by strangling him and making it seem like he hung himself. I wonder if they can figure out it was actually murder.

Max's pov
I'm really getting tired of this. Preston is dead. It's obviously not suicide...right? No. But maybe? Oh this sucks! I keep getting ahead of myself and start assuming stupid things! But I'm sure this isn't suicide. That would be too easy.
"What do you think Neil?" I ask.
"I don't know...I don't like this."
"Guys we need to stay focused!" Nikki said while shaking us.
"Stop!" I push her away.
"Max you need to relax! So what if there is a creepy murderer going around killing people! That doesn't mean you can be a grump!"
I immediately start getting more panicked.
"Nikki what the fuck?!" Neil shouted. "Like that would help anyone in this situation!"
"But-"
"Guys stop arguing." I say while pushing them both away from each other. "If we argue we will never figure it out!"
"I doubt we'll be able to find the murderer before we get kill-"
"I swear if you finish that sentence I'll kill you myself Neil." Nikki said.
"But it's true!"
"STOP IT!"
"Yeah Neil!"
"NO! BOTH OF YOU!" I shout. "You need to stop fucking arguing!"
They both go silent.
"You're right max." Neil said while turning to Nikki. "Sorry Nikki..."
"It's ok Neil! It is a bit stressful to deal with a murderer! But we can do it!"
I nod while smiling.
"Now back to the business at hand! Suicide! Did Preston do it or not? I say not but I could be wrong." I say
"I mean...he was first to find Gwens body." Neil mentioned.
"True."
"Maybe he was strangled! Because I see some rope burns that the noose doesn't line up with!" Nikki said.
"Nikki you're a genius!" Neil shouted.
That makes sense! I knew Preston wouldn't do that! I see Ered and Nerris walk up to us.
"Did you guys like figure it out? You're like the camp detectives! Which is super cool." Ered said while winking and doing finger guns. Nikki smiled and ran to Ered.
"Thanks Ered! And we did! Preston was strangled!"
"Oh that's horrible!" Said Nerris. "I hope you find out who it is!"
"Same Nerris. Same." I say. I doubt it's them too. They don't have motives.
"Do you guys have any ideas who it could be?" Neil asked. They both shrugged. That sucks but we are getting closer to figuring out the truth.

Hopefully...
