MADDIESON

CHAPTER 4: INNOCENT

-Maddiesons POV.-

A heavy atmosphere while all eyes are looking at me.

Maddieson, are you still there? Meghan brings me back to my reality.

Uhmm, Yes? I spoke. I think I irritates the one whos asking me just now. Its just that I cant follow them. Just a minute ago I was staring at the door, then they came in, and the moment they closed the door this man in front of me wearing glasses directly ask me or should I say accusing me of some murder that I didnt even know.

Well, to ask you twice, the school president was asking if you killed the girl from the library? said by the guy standing behind Meghan. I raised my eyebrows.

Oh, Im sorry. I thought hes accusing me. Maybe I heard it wrong. And to answer you sir, I did not kill that girl, I was at the library looking for a good book to read. I am alone and my acquaintance left me. I just notice that the side wing of the library is dark so maybe someone turn off the light. I tried to find the switch but unluckily I fell on the floor then the light just opened a- and.and I cant say a word further than that. I just cant forget the eye of that girl.

No need to continue Maddy. Evo said.

Just to be clear, we are not accusing you Ms. Maddison. We are just asking questions, but it seems like you have already formulated your answer. It doesn't sound like a lie to me. The president said. Is he testing me? Do I look like I liar?

Youre asking me so Im answering you. Its up to you whether you believe it or not. You can check the CCTV on the library if you want I said.

We cant the girl with lollipop said.

What do you mean? Meghan asked.

I mean, I already did, but the thing is, all the CCTV from the library has been turned down. You might forget this, but the principal said it last week that the system will going to be updated, and it has been three days and a last day for the upgraded system the girl with lollipop explained.

Have you tried asking the other students whos present at the scene? I asked.

No, not yet Evo said.

Anyway, how about you tell this to the police? They can come here for investigation. I dont think this matter can be solved by just a mere student. Who would know, another person might die again anytime if that killer was in the campus I said which I think I shouldnt have.

Youre still new here Ms. Maddison and you still dont know how this school works. Calling a police would be the worst plan ever the president said.

I was about to ask what he is talking about when someones phone rang.. It was Evos phone.

Hes at the office. He wants to talk to us, better if go now. Evo said. And after that they all leave.

After that conversation I am back again with my own world. Staring at the door hoping to see good news but Im ended up thinking about the thing he has said a while ago.

What does he mean by calling a police would be the worst plan ever?

Upgraded system? For real? I spoke. I dont know maybe it was just part of my imagination but why do I feel like its part of a plan? It cannot be just a coincidence right? Its a timing.

The murderer might plan all of this from the start. But the thing is, there is only one entrance and exit at the library. so how did the body ended up at the library without anyone noticing it? How did the murderer manage to put the body inside without being seen?

It is impossible to kill the victim inside the library because anyone might hear the scream of the girl. I am sure the murderer did that to the girl outside the library.
