Mysterists Behind The Books Vol. 2

The Money's Almost Gone!

November 12, 2015

Hi, readers! It's me again, Martin, updating Volume 2 of the Mysterists Behind The Books! This is all about the second day of investigation of CASE # 1.

Java and I, together with a friend, looked at the crime scene of the first case - the plastic bottle. Yesterday, it was almost fifty pesos (the currency of the Philippines) but now it's almost gone at thirteen pesos! Who is the suspect? Who?! Who?! Who?!

Again, we asked our fellow classmates about the case. Another two acted weird as we asked them: Nicos and Dainiel. Dainiel is part of the group "Mysterists Jr. Inc." (a group of classmates we train to become a mysterist) so we were so shocked to see him act weird. He looks at us when we whisper about updates for possible suspects and he doesn't talk to us when we ask. Nicos always shouts when we ask him. He shouts: "Are you doubting me because I look like an addict?"

Then, Mickaella came and helped us in cracking the case. She searched for clues near the crime scene and saw a green ballpen cap, which belongs to a ballpen owned by our youngest classmate, Vince. We do not doubt him 'cause he's "too young" to steal. Again, we haven't figured out the suspect.

One of our classmates, Rhaeyven, told us that students from other classrooms enter our classroom without permission, in short, trespassing. Is the suspect our classmate or from another classroom? And what is his/her purpose in stealing the money?

Then, the bell rang and the flag ceremony started. After almost eight hours, it's dismissal time. A few hours ago, we planned to hide inside the classroom to search for clues at the afternoon. But, I remembered that I have a "quiz bee" tomorrow and I shall study for it. (That's why Java, who wrote the lyrics of our song, included the line: There is a clever, smart guy... and that's me!) So, we went down the stairs and waited for my school service to arrive.

Then, I saw Angelo (the weird-acting guy yesterday) walking to the school gate. I asked him: "Where did you go?" He said: "There." I asked him again: "Where is there?" He answered: "There." His moves were awkward, because he can't look straight into my eyes and he sways freely, just as he's not comfortable.

When will this case end? That's all for now and please continue to vote for the best title. Thanks for reading Part 2!

From your dear mysterist,
Martin
