Shoot!! I watched my wall clock and it's already 8:55 am, I'm gonna late for my class. I hurriedly took a shower, dress myself and rushed off to school.
Pagdating ko sa room nakahinga ako ng maluwag ng wala pa ang professor namin but I notice some of the students are gathered around the faculty office and I can spot a familiar figure joining the crowd. Zed! Dali dali akong pumunta doon at nakisingit sa mga tao.

"Hey Zed, what's happening here???"

I asked Zed as I cleaned my glasses..

"See for yourself Geov!!"

Lumingon ako sa tinuro nya at nakita ko ang nakabigting katawan ng professor namin dito sa faculty room.

"Did you call Inspector Zed???"

"Yes they are on their way, on the meantime, why don't we do pre investigation and preserved the crime scene!!"

"No need to tell me that Zed!!"

Hindi mo na namin ginalaw ang biktima. Chineck namin ang katawan nya while wearing gloves. Wala naman kaming nakitang bruises. Pero impossible naman kasing suicide to.

"Do you think it's a suicide Geov???"

"I don't know!!"

We continue to look around for evidence but we didn't found anything except for a piece of paper on the floor. Kinuha ko yun at binasa ang nilalaman nun.

"I want to end my life now
Do not cry infront of me somehow
Not to do things that arent woth it
Commit in everything with heart in it
Suicide is the only answer
I myself is a big sinner
Have you forgotten what you promise?
Been in a while now and you didn't see the sun rise
Murdered your own pain when I'm gone so you'll leave happily when I smile that you face turns on."

I smirked as I found out the hidden message in the poem, and this proves that there is a foul play. I need to find more evidence.

"So a dead professor huh??!!"

Lumingon kami at nakita namin si Inspector Gordon. Nagbatian kami at nagpatuloy sa pag iimbestiga.

"So the victim is Mr. Arnulfo Tuazon. 33 years old a professor in the college of law in this university. Working in the university for 5 years and last seen today 7am!"

"What's the estimated time of death???"

"Ahm 1 hour from now so around exactly at 8am!"

I continue to search for evidences. Lumabas muna ako sa faculty office at pumunta sa janitor's room. I looked around at nakakita ako ng lubid. Nilapitan ko ito at nakita ko na putol ito. Someone cut this rope at kung di ako nagkakamali ito yung kalahati ng lubid na ginamit pang bitay sa biktima. Hmpx, nagpatuloy pa ako sa paghahanap hanggang sa naisipan kung bumalik na sa crime scene kasi wala na naman akong nakitang iba pang ebidensya.

"Oh Geov nandito na ang mga suspects!"

"Good, Zed ikaw na mag iinterview sa kanila!!"

"Okay, so ikaw ano pangalan mo? Relasyon sa biktima at kailan mo sya huling nakita!"

"Ako si Johnny Quintos. Professor din ako sa college of law at magkaibigan kami ni Arnulfo. Huli ko syang nakita kaninang 6:50 am. Kinausap ko sya tungkol sa plano nilang bakasyon kasama ang girlfriend nya. Nabanggit kasi nya sa akin yun noong isang araw!!"
