Next day, after hearing about the new case, SCI team instantly came to investigate. A man was found dead in a high school.

No one was allowed to leave or enter the school premise. Thank god that it was not an working day, only some office and supporting facilities were open that day for institutional works. Teacher were talking about themselves when SCI entered. It was a grand corridor, only two or three rooms on the side and the rest was a vacant white space, and in that spotless ground there lay a gruesome dead body, blood splattered. The renowned scientist Ji Sung Ho.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao led the team towards the corpse. Gongsun immediately started to work and others started to gather informations.
Things were still awkward between Yutang and Zhan Zhao as they stood apart from each other, trying to focus on the case in hand. The usual normal chitter chatter was nowhere to be seen.

Yutang could not do anything. He felt an invisible wall between them that was dividing them apart. If he takes one step, then Zhan Zhao is taking two steps back somehow. Yutang could not reach Zhan Zhao no matter how hard he tries. But Yutang did not have tor heart to press him about it.

But it was mostly Yutang who was having hard time to concentrate. Zhan Zhao was already looking carefully at the body and occasionally asking questions to Gongsun.

Yutang tore his gaze from Zhan Zhao and tried to look at the surrounding. He was scolding himself continuously for not being professional.

Zhan Zhao looked nothing concerned, his only priority is the case in hand. At least it seemed so.

Ji Sung Ho, a very known scientist was coming to this school to give a lecture on genetics and attend the science programme. It was even published in the newspaper. The scientists came a day before to talk with the teachers so that he can adapt the next day more amiably but was found dead right when he was about to leave.

Yutang thought for a moment. It's again a scientist killing case and not to mention that Zhao Jue just escaped the prison a few days ago. Is it him again?

The case looked like a suicide this time also. He used a gun and the bullet hole appeared at the right side of the forehead. Point blank.

Gongsun couched down to further investigate and after a few minutes he seemed in doubt.

Zhan Zhao soon caught up with what Gongsun was thinking and he asked him, "Do you also think that it is not so natural? "

Yutang was looking at the surroundings and when he heard them talking he came to them curious, "What do you mean? "

"Do you mean the fact that Mr. Jung Si Ho was actually a left handed person but he used his right hand to kill himself? " A very unfamiliar voice spoke. Even though it was in a form of question, the voice beared no hesitation in the statement.

Yutang turned to the person who spoke and spotted a very gentle person, who looked like he was indeed born to be a teacher. He wore a glass with a thick frame and even his manner of walking of speaking was polite and full of smile. He typically gave off the vibe of being someone who would think twice before killing a mosquito.

He was the same as Yutang and Zhan Zhao, arguably two or three years older. He had a face which was a little more handsome than the average, but the big glasses gave him some scholastic shade.

He came out of the teacher's group and smiled at the SCI team.
Zhan Zhao frowned, "That's kinda right. But who are you? "

"Ah, sorry it was rude of me that not only I spoke out of my turn also did not even introduce myself properly. My name is Da Feng. " Saying that he bowed a little and added, "I am a P.E teacher. "
