A/N: The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown. - H.P. Lovecraft
Everyone couldn't believe what Shinozaki-kun had just said to them.
Kuro: (So the person who killed Mei was a female teacher...Then that would mean...)
Hinata: Why? How?
Yamada: Who...?
Tokime: I-I can't tell you...
Nora-san gave him a nauseous look.
Nora: Why not? Are...you being threaten not to tell who the person is?
Hinata: That would be possible...He wouldn't just tell us right away unless the murderer would threaten his life into submission.
Tokime didn't say anything...all he did was nod...
"He had it rough...But he was a coward to not do anything for her..."
Kuro:...Shinozaki-kun...Please...you can tell us...the person who murdered her isn't here...
Tokime:...No...She's still here... She's still alive...T-That woman isn't an ordinary woman...s-she's dangerous...
She's a murderer...
Nora: But...Can you answered us why she killed Mei...?
Tokime: I-I don't know...I-I think it was something about envy...
Nora: Envy...? As in jealousy...?
Yamada: Whoa whoa whoa! All this happened because someone was jealous of Mei?
"Jealousy become hatred which leads to murder..."
Hinata: People can do cruel things to one another. Some actions are flaw prior to the event of some usage. Especially if it's unnecessary.
Both Nora and Kuro agreed on that. Life is cruel. Even to those who don't deserve it like Mei and so many others.
Nora: From my travels into the subconscious of the human minds m Envy can be based as a two-person situation whereas jealousy is a three-person situation. It is also a reaction to lacking something. Jealousy is a reaction to the threat of losing something (usually someone).
Kuro:....(She's right...That would means that when you are feeling jealous, you are often feeling envious as well.)
Yamada: So all this time, Like I said before...I get someone may have been jealous of Mei...but what was the reason for them to kill her...to me it seems petty....
Hinata: So if it wasn't a student that could've done this...But...it was a teacher? Why?
"Because she's a BITCH"
Kuro: (How do you know that...? What are you not telling me...?)
Tokime:....I...have no idea... That's all I can tell you...
Kuro: That's alright...Nora-san...We should be going now...We need to find the last body parts of Mei to appease her.
Nora: Good luck. And please...try not to die.
Kuro:.... It's not a promise...but we'll try.
After the teens left Nora-san in the library. An lingering thought had never left Kuro's mind...
If a teacher had killed Mei...
Was it also possible she could've been responsible for the rumors surrounding the girl as well...?
"Yes...But more secrets will be found out...This school is more than it meets the eye"
Kuro:....(Ya know... whoever you are. I really...REALLY...Don't like you...What are you plotting...?)
"I sense DEATH approaching..."
Kuro:.....
Kuro did not like the sound of that...
