Diego and the others began. Diego and Mona watched Pasy, Nacht and Charlotte watched Mikes, and Kisa went to find and examine Emmy's body.
Diego: Hmm
Mona: Shhh Do not walk so loudly
Diego: But what exactly are we supposed to do What does watching even mean
Mona: Watching means watching
Mona sighed
Diego: How is that supposed to help us
Mona: We will see
Diego: Okay
They watched her. Pasy sat by a window.
Pasy: Hmmm
Mona: What is she doing
Diego: I do not know She is reading something A book No A sketchbook
Mona: You mean a cartoon book
Diego: Yeah But I do not know which one
Mona: Fine Nifa will handle that
She pulled out her fairy tale Grimm The Bremen Town Musicians.
Mona: Nifa Watch her
Nifa: Yes maam
Nifa went down.
Mona: Good I use Nifa for things like this because I can see everything she sees You can do it too Here hold this
It was a pair of glasses.
Mona: I only have one problem If I share it with you I only see through one of Nifa's eyes but it is fine
They used it. Nifa climbed above the library and looked at what Pasy was reading.
Mona: Hmm
Diego: Hmm Ugh
Mona: Oh Oh no What What is she reading
Diego: Oh That is not a drawn story No That is adult content Drawings and models
Mona: And why does it show so much Do they have no shame Oh They are huge
Diego: If it goes that far then I guess I have to do it here
Mona: Do what
Diego: Uh Forget it Something you would not understand
Mona: Whatever Now Nifa Get away from that dirty stuff Nifa Hello Huh
They looked toward the library. Nifa seemed to like the pervy content.
Mona: What
Diego: Bruh I did not know cats could be pervy
Mona: Nifa Come here right now
Nifa came closer and fell down.
A loud crash
Mona: Oh no
Mona hid.
Diego: Uh
Mona: You too, idiot
She pulled him down with her hand.
Pasy: Huh What was that
Pasy looked around and saw Nifa the cat.
Pasy: Oh Little kitty What are you doing Oh no Are you okay
She lifted Nifa up.
Pasy: Oh You are so cute You have big eyes
Nifa: Meow Meow Meow
Pasy: Awww You are so cute
Nifa: Meow
Pasy took Nifa with her and left the room. Only then did the two of them slowly crawl out.
Diego: Ugh
Mona: That was way too close Hey Pull yourself together
Diego: I want that book Go first
Mona: Shut up
She dragged him away.
Diego: No No I want to see those melons again
Mona: Uh What melons Oh that is what you mean
Diego: Then you show me yours
Mona: No Forget it We are leaving Later you can take the book
Meanwhile
Nacht: Hmm
Charlotte: Uh Blush
Nacht: Okay So far it seems fine
Charlotte: Hmm
Mikes sat on his chair.
Charlotte: Somehow Calm Suspiciously calm
Nacht: Mhm
Mikes: Hmm
Charlotte: Hmm
Nacht: Hmm
Mikes: Hmm Yeah Very calm
Nacht: Ugh
Charlotte: Huh
They turned around fast.
Mikes: Hehe Did I scare you
Nacht: How did he do that
Charlotte: I heard nothing
Mikes: As I can see you are watching me Listen I know why I think You think I had something to do with Emmy's death But I am sure you and I both know it was Pasy
Nacht: Diego and Mona are watching her Do not worry
Mikes: That is not enough If you want proof that it was her Come tonight to me in front of the Cave of Wrath
Nacht: But
Charlotte: That cave is forbidden A monster lives there, right
Mikes: Exactly Alright We meet tonight
He walked away.
Nacht: Tsk
Charlotte: How did he hear us so easily and spy on us
Nacht: Really pathetic The one we were supposed to spy on spied on us
Charlotte: Damn
Meanwhile
Kisa: Hahh
Kisa hid and snuck toward the morgue.
Kisa: This must be it
She pulled the cover aside and saw Emmy's body.
Kisa: I am sorry No one deserves this
She gently stroked her hair.
Kisa: We will find the killer I promise you
She examined the injuries.
Kisa: A wound in the stomach The organs are damaged
A sound behind her
Kisa: Huh
She turned and saw Luie.
Luie: Shhh
He was dressed in dark clothing.
Kisa: Luie What are you doing here
Luie: Nacht sent me
Kisa: Why are you wearing that kind of clothing Only someone from the morgue wears that
Luie: I did not want to be recognized I know about wounds My father is a doctor and my mother is a pathologist So I know this stuff
Kisa: Oh Look at the wound at the stomach I thought that was the cause of death But there is also something at the neck
Luie: Let me see
He examined it.
Luie: Neither the stomach wound nor the neck wound is the real cause
Kisa: What But then what
Luie: Look here
He turned the body so the back was visible The sheet fell away.
Kisa: Ugh
Luie: There is an injury on the back too And the damage went through the chest area
Kisa: Oh She suffered
Luie: Since she died in the infirmary she must have suffered a lot Look The cheeks have turned bluish That means she was gasping for air but could not get enough When the chest and lungs are badly damaged, every breath feels like being stabbed
Kisa: Oh no
There were dried tears under her eyes, and her tongue was severely injured.
Kisa: This is horrible
Luie: Only part of it was torn Why Why would someone do this to a student
Kisa: Did you know her
Luie: A little She was our neighbor She always acted mean but she was actually nice She took care of my cat when my mom threw it out I could not, but then I found out Emmy had been hiding it so no one would find it
Kisa: Oh
Kisa looked at him. Grief and anger were inside him.
Then
Kisa: Huh
Luie: Ugh Her eyes opened
Kisa: What does that mean Is she still alive
Luie: No That cannot be My mother said sometimes the eyes can open even days after death It is a normal reaction because some nerves can still react for a while
Kisa: Could it be that you liked her, Luie
Luie: Ugh Yes
Kisa: I am sorry
Luie: Me too
A few hours later
They met again in the rest room after class.
Nacht: And
Kisa: I did not find anything truly suspicious except that this is a brutally violent monster
Diego: We found nothing with Pasy that sounds dangerous
Mona: Mhm
Nacht: For us Mikes caught us
Mona: What Seriously
Charlotte: We do not know how That is really strange I would call it teleportation
Nacht: But I think I would have noticed Anyway He said we should meet him tonight to prove that Pasy is the killer He realized we suspect him
Mona: That honestly makes him more suspicious
Diego: Mhm
Kisa: Hmm
Nacht: We will meet him
Diego: Alone
Nacht: No He did not say that So you will come too
That evening
After the meeting time, they headed toward the Cave of Wrath.
Mikes: There you are I see you brought your other friends
Nacht: Is that a problem
Mikes: No
Charlotte: Fine Show us your amazing proof that you are innocent and Pasy is the killer
Mikes: Follow me
They followed him.
Charlotte: Hmm Something is wrong That is dark magic
Nacht noticed it too.
Nacht: Hmm
He looked at Mona She nodded.
Nacht: I understand They feel it too
They went farther until Mikes stopped.
Nacht: Are we there
Mikes: Yes This is the place Hehehe
Footsteps
Pasy: Run away Hurry
She suddenly arrived.
A black hole appeared behind Mikes and dark tentacles rose from it.
Mikes: Aaaagh
Diego: Ugh
Charlotte: Ugh
Pasy: Oh no Mikes Stop Please
Mikes: You should not even be here But whatever
Nacht: What is going on
Mikes: Oh You are confused Yes I killed Emmy The creature that did it acted under my will Come out Thes
A troll like creature appeared.
Mikes: I needed it for the ritual You have heard of the mage Lovecroft, right
Nacht: You mean the dark mage
Mikes: Exactly To gain the power of Cthulu I had to make sacrifices in multiple schools I have been doing it for 500 years
Nacht: Ugh Wait That means
Mona: You are the killer from the Sabeth von Heinrich school
Kisa: And you are the one who killed that boy almost 300 years ago
Nacht: But why now
Mikes: First My name is not Mikes Hendrikson It is Fredrik Dehlheim I changed it because I had to enroll in other schools I was in six schools Sometimes I was called Dren Sword, sometimes Hans von Petersburg, sometimes Steffan von Eisenhauer, sometimes Miroslov Großheim, and John von Heidelheimer I always made sure families took me in with my magic and mimicry I killed the real children and took their identity
Nacht: And why this time a family that is not rich, more like farmers
Fredrik: For the ritual Of course The sacrifice must be rich and be killed by a poor person Also I got tired of those rich habits and rich food I am not made for that
Diego: This guy is telling me he lasted 500 years but could not handle the last ritual
Fredrik: This is not the last The last one when it comes to sacrifices, which is why I got these tentacles The creature that did it, Thes, has been my partner for a long time I got him from some family I do not remember which My memories are not the best anymore
He looked at Pasy and smiled cruelly He raised his staff.
Fredrik: Do not look like that, Pasy
Pasy: You killed her
Fredrik: I did you a favor
Pasy: You are a murderer
Fredrik: Hehehe Anyway I am leaving
Diego: Oh yeah
Nacht: No Diego He is too strong We have no power against him
Fredrik: Hehe
A portal opened He stepped through with Thes He waved his hand and vanished as if nothing happened.
And so the investigation truly began.
