WE WERE all seated in the same positions as earlier, scattered around the room with notes and papers spread out in front of us. The tension in the air was palpable as we exchanged glances, each of us deep in thought, trying to piece together the puzzle of the campus heist.
"How is the investigation going?" Professor Collins asked, sitting in the middle chair and typing on his laptop.
"As of now, the only clue we've found in the library is fresh dirt near the window. It appears to be from a shoe, but we suspect it's a red herring," Yoda reported, his voice betraying no hint of emotion.
"A red herring?" Professor Collins raised an eyebrow.
"Yoda nodded. "Yes, sir. The dirt doesn't match the type of soil in the library's surroundings, and the shoe print is too generic. It's as if someone deliberately left it behind to mislead us."
"That's all we've got to go on, because it looks like someone tampered with the CCTV footage and there's nothing suspicious in the library logs." I added.
"What about Zeke's team?"
"We've searched tirelessly for leads, even in the other departments, but to no avail," He explained, "Based on my analysis, it's clear that this heist was orchestrated by a team, not just one person. They've been meticulous in their approach, leaving no traces and tampering with the CCTV footage in every department."
"Tama si Zeke," si Detective Apollo naman ang nagsalita. "The heist is orchestrated by a team, with one mastermind who has an overview of all the CCTV cameras and other departments,"
"It's clear that this was a well-coordinated operation. The thief had insider knowledge and access to different areas of the building." Pagdagdag ni William.
Hindi ko na alam paano ako gagalaw, lahat sila ay nakakapagbigay ng mga views nila tungkol sa crime scene habang ako ay naguguluhan dito. Malinis ang pagkagawa ng krimen, walang iniwan na butas ang mga magnanakaw maliban nalang kung sa kanila galing 'yong natuklasan namin na sa library.
"We've exhausted all conventional investigative techniques," I said, leaning back in my chair with a sigh. "We need to think outside the box if we're going to crack this case."
"There's no such thing as perfect crime," wika ni Professor Collins, tumayo siya sa kanyang upuan at ipinatong ang kanyang dalawang kamay sa lamesa. "Hindi lang natin nakikita ang dapat nating makita, malay mo 'andyan lang pala sa harapan niyo ang clue."
"I'm gonna go and investigate the other departments." Professor Collins stopped Yoda just as he was about to stand up, causing him to quickly sit back down.
