Murder House

Chapter Four - Jordan

Jo and I put on the gloves we found in the kitchen and moved Ally and Sabrina into a furnace that we found in the attic that we recently found out about. I felt sorry for both Sabrina and Ally, but I hope that they're in a better place now.

Once we were done and went back to the main floor, everyone was cleaning up what happened the night before while some other people were getting rest, since murderers weren't allowed to kill at this time.

Kees was examining the picture Dan gave to him yesterday. Kees is really smart, so I am sure that he will figure that out. I hope the murderers never target him, because we need him, and I want to get out of this with him.

I walked over to Kees and asked, "Did you come up with any theories with what that picture might mean?"

"No, it just seems really odd," Kees replied, "and it's also hard to come up with a theory with just this strange picture alone."

"That's true, there're also boxes in the attic, I wonder what's in them. Jo and I weren't able to open them because it seems like they were sealed shut, though."

"Do you think this was never just a murder house? Because there are kids playing in front of the house in this photo, so that must mean that it was safe, right? Their parents would not let them play ball here. Also, those boxes you found in the attic might be a recent owner's boxes of things as well, or I could be wrong."

I thought about this for a second and said, "I think so. Should we just stick with that theory for right now?"

Kees nodded. I wonder how he was able to pick up information really quickly. I can never do that.

I then heard a scream. I was scared, but heavily confused. If this scream was because someone was murdered, that wouldn't even be possible. The mastermind clearly stated that murderers couldn't murder anyone before 12 AM and after 4 AM. It's only 12 PM, so if the murderer murdered someone right now, they would be eliminated.

Kees probably heard it too, because he ran over to where whoever screamed. I followed after.

There we saw Jordan, lying down dead on the floor of the pantry. This was very confusing now.. if Jordan was murdered, wouldn't someone else be killed, since they would be a murderer?

Even if they aren't a murderer, and they killed Jordan, they would still be eliminated. This doesn't make sense. How is this possible?

"One has died," the voice on speaker spoke, "Jordan was found dead in a closet! Time to investigate! The voting is in an hour."

"How the hell did this happen?" John asked. I believe that he noticed the same thing I did a while ago.

"This is impossible," Kai said, "if she's dead, another person should be dead too if they murdered her."

"Everybody, look for clues! We need to find evidence of a murderer," Alex said, "or of something. Come on!"

"Kees and I will examine the corpse again. Everyone, look for clues outside too!" I shouted.

Everyone, except for Kees and I, left the room to look for evidence. Now, Kees and I examined the corpse of Jordan.

I checked the wounds, there was only one, but it seemed deep. I then checked the surroundings, and it was nothing like Sabrina's murder. There were no traces of evidence of the murderer from her surroundings, and I had a feeling that this was going to be tougher.

I checked the weapon to see if it had numbers like last time, too, but it didn't. It was just a plain knife with blood on it. I absolutely missed something, if I couldn't find evidence, something was definitely missed. I felt like Kees would have found something right now, so I turned to him.

"Did you find anything? For some reason, I can't at all." I asked.

Kees looked at me and replied, "No, for some reason I haven't."

"One thing I found is just the wounds she has, which is actually only one. It is really deep."

"I have a feeling I know who did it, but I'm not so sure yet. We should ask everyone outside if they found out anything."

"I agree, let's go!"

Kees and I walked outside, and everyone looked at us.

"Did you guys find anything?" Alicia asked.

"No, I'm afraid we haven't really found anything," I said, "the only thing we noticed was her wounds. Though Kees has someone in mind for who did it, he's not so sure."

"These are the people we are counting on to examine the corpse all the time?" John groaned.

I was angry that he was like this, so I told him, "Fine, if you think you can find something helpful, go ahead and examine it for yourself."

"With pleasure, I will!" John ran over to where Jordan's corpse was.

"What is up with that guy?" Thomas said.

I don't know. I really don't know. Some people are like that, and maybe they're like that because they went through something.
