I dedicate this first ever chapter to Zalynvekova for the starting book cover and always being there to support me :) Lovelots gurl! Hahaha.---------------
I can hear the clicks of the cameras, the voices of the police, FBIs, investigators. Camera flashes can almost blind my eyes. I am currently in a crime scene here in a coffee shop. I know, it's weird to find a dead body in a coffee shop, but today it just happened. A body was found in the restroom this morning when a guy suddenly stormed out of the restroom and began shouting. The staff called the police and now they're putting crimes scene stickers around the shop.
"I just wanted to drink a coffee before going to school, and now I think we won't be attending school," Savannah Young, one of my friends, whined. My friends and I were called witnesses of the crime scene, we just answered them that we don't know what happened and we just saw some guy shouting that there's a dead body in the restroom. While my friends talked about how they want to go home or to school, I looked at the crime scene. I heard the FBIs said that the victim was man in thirties and was stabbed for like 40 times? Most of the stabs are in his chest, which obviously caused his death. But the most interesting part is that there were no traces found about the suspect. No fingerprints, knife, no anything. Not a single clue.
I saw the body. The body was actually in a garbage bag. I saw the polices taking out the body and examining it. It was terrifying.
"Hey Red, you okay?," June Stewart, my bestfriend, asked. "Yeah I'm fine,"
I smiled at them. "You haven't been speaking for the last 10 minutes. You sure you're ok?," William Hamilton, "Yeah I'm fine. I'm just trying to think who could the suspect be," "No one knows. But I heard that the victim is a policeman.", Savannah, "A policeman? What would be the reason brutally killing a policeman?," William, "There could be a lot of reasons you know," I said, "why are we even stressing ourselves with this? We're not involved, let the polices and the FBIs do their jobs, ok?," Liam Cooper, my boyfriend, said a matter-of-factly. Somehow, Luke's right. We're not involved, but I can't help myself to get curious and eager to know the suspect.
