I knew it. This was his reason.That tournament wasn’t bad either. It would be a new experience.Now that mama and papa knew that I'm here, I could do what I wanted. Which means I could join the tournament without getting worried of being caught by them.I took a deep breath before I replied, "Okay, I will join that tournament.""That's a good choice, Reign. The team needs your skills. Good luck. You'll start training tomorrow."I came out from the office feeling like I was floating. Who would have thought that my former piano tutor was now a head master? And the worst was, he's a Zyfford and his brother was Dave."Zanaya!"Someone called my name but I lazily turned around. The caller pulled me over and faced me.Chris called me."Why?" I asked. Arya and I were now getting along with the E4 and Chris was my closest friend of them all. I'm comfortable with him because we have the same passion. JusRelated chapters

ARYAMy fellow students were looking at me as I walk along the hallway to the Simulation Room.I was wearing a blue vest with the Sleuth’s Tournament logo printed on it. It was a proof that I am among the representatives of our academy who would go to war. Oh well it's not a war, it's a competition for the Detectives. In short, for the smart.I also couldn’t quite figure out why I was on the team. I'm not smart though.My eyes darted around and noticed that I was actually the one the students were looking at.Maybe it’s because I’m beautiful. Or maybe it's because of my get up now.I'm already part of the the team, so this wass supposed how we look.Before I could open the door of the Simulation Room, a man approached me and left in my hands a folded piece of paper.I looked at the paper but when I was about to ask the man, he was no longer in front of me. He disappeared

ARYAIt was about ten o'clock so we searched for Mrs. Roque. It was said that the training would start so we all went straight to the Simulation Room.A moment later, the door opened and Mrs. Roque walked inside along with my sister.They stood in the middle as we sat in the reserved seats."This would be the start of your training. First, you need to undergo a team-building to improve the cooperation in your group," Prof. Darlene began."That's why, you're going to the Zyfford forest now. We have prepared logic puzzles there that you need to answer in order for you to find your way out. You need to cooperate because you only have two hours to do the challenge," my sister Avi added.The four of us followed them into the forest. It's not that far. When we reached the entrance, Prof. Darlene faced us."At the end of this forest, you could see the road leading to the faculty, let's just meet there. This was just a mini f

ARYAWhen would these logical questions end?I am tired."What goes up and never comes down?" Zanaya read the clue. This friend of mine was not obviously haggard. As for me, I'm sweating profusely.I pondered the answer to that question."Sus! Basic. Age is the answer there," I replied confidently.Zanaya laughed."Okay, let's say age is the answer, but how's that, where's the next clue there?" Chris queried.How was that? I'm hungry."The device! Let's input our age on the device," Zanaya exclaimed."Let's add all our ages, then input it on the device. But how's that? What's the next clue?" Dave asked this time. He also seemed to be bored."Let's just try," Zanaya insisted."Hey, Lopez, we can't try everything just because it's possible. Will you please use your brain sometimes.""There's no harm in trying! We only have thirty minutes and we are still here in the middle of th

DAVEUnbelievable.We were all probably thinking the same thing as we were inside the infirmary after we discovered that the culprit in the mess in our training was none other than Monica.I didn't want to believe.That could not be done by a quiet and modest person like Monica. I've known her for how many years and I have never ever imagined that she would commit such cruel things. She couldn't do that to Lopez. In fact she's the reason why we were able to get along with the two. Though, there's still a gap between Reign and I, but that's our issue and it's for us to solve alone.The two of them get along and I knew that they consider each other as friends. So it was surprising that Monica's name was involved in an incident. And they also have an evidence.If Reign woke up later, I just don’t know what will be her reaction."That's not true!" Chris snarled.We all looked at him. This was the only time I

DAVE"Don't move. Let's observe first," I whispered to them.We peeked into the little crevice of the cartons where we were hiding.There were six people standing in front of us. Three boys and three girls.One of them was Lopez with a large bandage on her head. There was also Monica and another woman we knew too well were also included. Celyndra.What's happening? Why were they together? Was it because of what happened in the training?The two men tied Monica to the chair. Reign growled and was obviously about to start attacking them but Celyndra stopped her."What the hell are you doing? Why do you have to tie her up? Release her right now, while I'm still kind," Lopez said emphatically."Just chill there, Zanaya. Didn't I tell you, that she was the one who made the wound on your forehead?" Celyndra replied and smiled mischievously.Reign was obviously holding back. Maybe, she also couldn’t belie

DAVE "Are you okay?" Lopez asked us. "We're fine, how about you, Zan, you might have an injury again," Arya said and even examined Reign's body for any sign of wound or whatsoever.."I'm fine," she said then looked at Monica, "Monica, sorry about that. I still have to wait for Celyndra's confession." Celyndra was caught in her own trap. She didn't even notice that she already revealed that she's the true villain and not Monica. "Thank you because you believed in me, guys. I don't know what to do if you turn your back on me." "Oh, don't mention it, Monica, we will never leave you behind," Arya sincerely promised who smiled at her. “Eroll is the only one who is not here,” Chris said. I still couldn't forget Monica’s indirect confessions to him. How does he feel now? I'll tell Eroll later. I'm sure he would love to tease Chris about it. A moment later, the police and some teachers arrived who Arya called. "Y

DAVE Watch. He is coming. Mark 13:23 This was written on the paper. Was this a bible verse? “The Gospel according to Mark is in the New Testament,” Reign blurted out of the blue. Why did she know about that? I did not know she could be religious. "Right. Actually, I have consulted my Catholic friend regarding this matter but even he has difficulty connecting the case and the verse. That's why we should consult Reverend Samuel about this." The three of us decided to pay a visit to the Reverend. We immediately got in my car and drove to the Reverend’s office. The trip only took five minutes because the office was nearby. A steward let us in and instructed us to wait for the arrival of Reverend Samuel. His office was like a library because of the many books lined up the in shelves here. "I'm sorry if I took so long," Father Samuel crooned when he finally met us downstairs. "What can

DAVEA few moments later, the black van in which the witness was riding arrived. The officers and guards instantly surrounded him to protect from unwanted killers. He was immediately brought inside.I followed them inside. I might see Reign there, who until now hadn’t showed up after her outburst."See what happened to me? I have a wound on my hand!" Gomez's complained irritably.“Calm down first,” Officer Tres said. "Get the first aid kit," he ordered the guards."Why don't you just call the doctor?" Gomez contemplated. "I don't trust you.""Listen here, Gomez, we have concluded that a doctor in disguise will kill you. That's why we can't call a doctor right now," Officer Tres explained. His forehead was now dripping with sweat."And we believed that the reason why they attacked the safe house was that, it's their plan all along. Once we take you to the hospital, they will get that opportunity to strike you," Detect

ZANAYAI repeatedly called Dave as he ran after the man wearing a hoodie.I could do nothing, but follow them too.We arrived at the airport near the victim's house and the chase took us all the way inside, to the comfort room of the airport. We saw the suspect went inside the CR, but he suddenly disappeared from our sight."Where is he now?" Dave asked. He was still gasping for breath.In the hallway of the CR, six people came out.First was a civilian-- a man, quite tall, carrying a suitcase and wearing a brown jacket, and eyeglasses, and he also looked sweaty.I immediately cornered him so that he wouldn't go away. I showed him my ID as a detective so that he would cooperate.Later, a woman also wearing a jacket, tall, somewhat stout, and somewhat dark, came out of the CR. There was another girl with her and she

ZANAYAI was running...Again.But this time, I was not running away from him. I am actually running towards him."Hey, Zyfford!" I called him.He immediately turned to me. One of his eyebrows was raised while holding the papers that had been scattered earlier on the floor."You got something there?" he questioned.I approached him and held my phone in front of him showing the evidence I captured from the crime scene.His eyebrows knitted in confusion. "And what should we do with a letter to a family?"I clicked my tongue. It looked like the great Dave Zyfford lost his touch on Detective works."Duh. It could be a great help for us to solve the case," I stated in a matter of fact tone."Babe, you've got to be kidding me," he said which mad

That's Christopher Enriquez."Ah, here's my gift," he murmured shyly after a moment of just staring at each other.Arya let out a laughed as she nudged Monica on her side to which the latter just ignored and simply gave me an encouraging smile.I took it and stared at the box. "What's this?""Open it, quick!""Wow, ha! You're even more excited, Eroll," Arya commented. Eroll clearly ignored Arya's remark and just stared at the box as if anticipating it to explode or whatever. This better not explode or else I would throw it at Eroll's face."Open it," Chris urged with a smile.I shrugged my thoughts away and I began opening it. I was surprised when I saw a calculator inside. It

ZANAYAI stopped my car at the place where he currently stays. It's the place where I wouldn't even thought of visiting, but here I am inside the car, contemplating whether to get out or drive away and hide again.However, I kept on reminding myself for how many times that there was no room for cowardice. I needed to face my past so that I could move on towards my future.The things that happened to me a year ago were incomparable. It was an experience that was worth sharing as it had impacted my whole life to become the person I've become today. Life had made me tougher. It made me realized that truth always prevail no matter how much effort we exerted just to hide it. I've learned that trust was such a precious thing you could give to anyone. Trust was fragile too. It's delicate. If it was broke once, it would be hard to glue the broken pieces together.I let out a sigh. This is it.I pushed the door and got out of the car. Now,

CHRIS"Where are you after the defense?" Eroll fired the first question to a woman. Her wide eyes widened even more when she realized that the question was being addressed to her."I-I'm in the lobby, I'm about to go home that time..." she answered in a shaky voice."What about you?" Eroll inquired another student."My group and I are in the Cafeteria," the girl replied nonchalantly. She seemed to not care that she's one of the suspects and clearly unbothered by what's happening. Either she's not involved or she's just good at hiding emotions.Eroll continued to ask questions until he reached the frowning man who had been suspicious to me ever since I saw him."I'm in the lobby too," he replied sparingly. He and Eroll even held eye contact for a while before the latter averted his gaze to us.We sorted the students who we

CHRIS"Chris! Let's go. You're really slow," shouted Monica who was outside the headquarters with the others.I let out an irritated sigh when I failed to tie my shoe laces properly."Seriously?" someone blurted in front of me.I looked up and saw Monica's annoyed face.I got up and faced her. "I'm done!"After saying that, I pinched her nose and ran to the door while laughing so hard.She groaned audibly as she tried to catch up."Is everything complete?" Dave asked who was seemingly bored judging by his usual dull eyes."Aye! Aye! Captain," Eroll replied playfully.They started walking towards the car.Today, we were invited for a case. And guess what, everyone was excited since it's been a long time since we were able to solve real case

ARYAMonica sent a message first to Dave before we started walking towards the MRF. There were no traces of blood on our way anymore so we didn't know which part of the academy where Zanaya was taken. Our only hope was the MRF. I really she's safe there.When we saw the MRF, the two of us hid in an acacia tree to wait for Dave.Soon, we heard the approaching footsteps of the three men."We think Zanaya was right there!" Monica whispered to the them."Look, the MRF has a secret passageway out of the academy, and I think that's the reason why JDC decided to stay right there," Dave explained. "I asked my father's men to guard all the exits, including the exit in that MRF room, so Nico could not escape, unless he creates another chaos.""We also have back-up policemen, if we haven't gotten out of the MRF within ten minutes, they will come in and

ARYAWe hurried up the stairs to the second floor where the Control Room was located. Monica and I accompanied some rescuers to rescue Zanaya who was inside. Dave with Eroll and Chris were outside and were also looking for JDC aka Nico.Who would have thought that the venerable Student Council President was the mastermind of all the violence at Zyfford Academy? No one would expect him to be able to do that. His life was now tainted with black due to his past.As for Zanaya, I am happy that she still gave us her loyalty up to this point, though I am so worried about her current state as of the moment. I really hope nothing bad happened to her. She's my very first friend here in Zyfford and was also the reason why we became friends with Dave's group. If not for her, I am sure my blood would still boil for the E4.It was already smoky in this part of the building so the rescuers would n

Arya exclaimed with tears in her eyes.She had been hysterical when everything had sunk in her mind. A series of sobs from her could now be heard along with the shouts of commands from the authorities as they tried to put out the fire.I should have listened to them. I should have listened to her. This shouldn't have happened. I could have helped her. If only I didn't let my pride and ego get in the way. We could have made a better plan.I tugged at my hair while still staring at the burning part of the Broadcast Room.Why didn't I listen to her? She's trying to explain, but I refused to listen. I even started hating her. Damn, I think I hate myself
