Chapter 35

"I found a new lead". jordan announced as he walked in the room.
"What lead?".asked kelly as she was in the room,so was elise and logan and also andy.
The five held meetings which they always attend to discussion about their work since it's related and they sometimes catch up on old times.
They had stopped but continue now."I found us a lead to get us going with the investigation".
"Really?".andy showed half enthusiasm as he spoke."let's hear it".
Jordan only glared at the other male before getting down to business."remember the other girl that was found dead not quite long ago?".
No one gave a response as they tried to remember who jordan was talking about.
"That blaire girl!". groaned jordan.he was annoyee at the fact that they had forgotten her."the bully!".It was at this moment realization came up on them.
"Oh".was all they all said to which they received a glare from jordan.
"Have you guys become accustomed to death that it doesn't feel like a big deal to you anymore?".asked jordan."what's with the bored attitude?".
"Sorry Dan".elise said."don't be mad at us okay?.we are just tired".
"Fine.i understand". jordan said."just listen to okay?.I will do the talking while the four of you listen".
They all made a nod and jordan continues to speak."blaire was reported to have killed herself.i took a look at her body and somethings don't match".
"like?".
"With what I saw,I can tell you that she didn't kill herself". said jordan."and that she was sexually assaulted". jordan glanced at the faces of his friends for their reaction.
"You guys don't seem too surprised or that's what I feel?".asked jordan."of course this is surprising to you guys right?".
"Is that all?". said andy seemingly bored as he yawn.
"I don't like their reaction but I despise yours the most".jordan said glaring at andy."let's forget about the others.why aren't you surprised?".
"Me?".andy points to himself."I am surprised not just surprise but am shocked as well".
"I doubt that".
"The thing is..".started elise gaining the attention of everyone in the room.".. about her being killed isn't surprising at all considering anna but I have to admit that her being sexually assaulted was not expected".
"Yeah".agreed kelly."I didn't think that she could be a viticm of assualt considering her role and how she was".
"Let's look at this another way". said andy."what if she was assaulted and she couldn't hear it so she killed herself?".
"That's what you think?".asked kelly talking to andy.
"What I think doesn't matter". said andy."just think about the possibility of it being true".
"The marks could be there to lead us in your direction too".argued kelly.
"I am not saying that's what happened.it's just a thought that occured to me". said andy."besides none of us actually could be sure of what happened unless we were there".
"Are you crazy or something?". asked kelly frowning."why would we be there?.what kind of crazy assumption is that?".
"Stop the bicker already".elise said.she could feel that their argument would turn into a fight if she doesn't stop them.
"Jeez". jordan sighs at the sight of his two friends who were acting like babies."so back to the topic,no bickering involved this time".his last remark was for two who were arguing a moment ago.
"What if the marks were left there by someone else?.or maybe she knew the killer?".guessed elise.
"You think that she might have been acquaintances with her killer?".asked kelly.
"That might be possible seeing as there were no restraint marks on her body". said jordan rubbing his jaw.
"Why did you say that before?". Kelly asked."you had me guessing wrong things".
Andy smirked at kelly who dissed him immediately."you also guessed wrong as well so stop with the stupid smirk".
"It's okay guys". said elise."let's not drift off the topic".
"What if the killer isn't the one who assaulted her?". said logan who hadn't spoken since the conversation started.
His words instantly earned their attention as they all glanced at him.
"You do realize that we are confused at this moment right?".asked kelly.
Logan had been thinking about the odds from the guesses they made earlier and arrived at a conclusion of his own."you said that there were marks of sexual assault but no signs of her resicting right?".asked logan to which jordan nodded.
"Yeah.it's why the case was conculed as sucide".
"Two things are usually involved with cases like this". said logan."the first is that she was first assualtled before she was killed by the killer".
"What's the second one?". asked kelly.
"There could be accomplices". answered logan."which comes with two things.it's either she was assaulted by the first person and killed by the second person or-".
"She was killed first but then got raped by the accomplice right?".guessed andy."but that's not possible unless a psychopath is involved".
"Let's not forget about her knowing the killer". said logan.
"What's the third one?".asked elise.
"Third one?". kelly asked not understanding elise's question.
Although logan didn't mention about a third option,elise felt that he had a third option.
"Am still considering if it could be added". said logan.
"Say it". said elise."I want to hear it".
"Before I say it I have a question to ask jordan". said logan.
"Ask away".
"Were the marks visible?".
"No". jordan shakes his head."I had to use the red lights so I could see it as they were faint".
"That's why everyone thought it was suicide as there were no restraint marks and the signs of her being assaulted wasn't visible". said kelly.
"This brings me to my third guess". said logan."the day she was assualtled wasn't the day she was killed".
"Which means that we have two different culprit". said elise.
"Then am guessing that she was familiar with the two culprits". said andy.
"If that's the case then maybe the culprit who killed her is the same as the one who killed anna". said kelly."but for what?.and why?".
