Chapter 382 Monster

When Mandy drove to the school gate, the gate of Carmel University was already occupied by police cars. Many police officers in police uniforms were standing on the lawn and near the rockery.

The originally bustling school gate was now filled with solemn silence. Only the occasional chatter of a few police officers raising their heads could be heard. They held a notebook in each other's hands and took two steps to write down something while staring at the arched door of the school. His gaze was like that of an art student sketching from life, not knowing what he could observe.

Mandy pumped oil on the floor and patted the horn to signal the police car in front to give way. Several police officers raised their eyebrows when they saw the approaching sports car but did not move until Mandy turned her head out of the car window. After reaching out and glaring at them, they recognized who the girl was and remembered that this Porsche seemed to have appeared at the crime scene last night.

The police car surrounding the school gate slowly drove away, and Mandy jumped in as soon as she stepped on the accelerator. Several police officers who were not qualified enough to participate in the interrogation process had to jump back immediately if they wanted to dig out more information from Mandy. He took a few steps to avoid the irritable girl.

After driving into the college, Mandy discovered that the incident seemed to spread more widely than she thought. There were police officers on the paths and in front of the wooden chairs in the college. However, students passing by had a chance of being stopped and questioned. Most of the questions and questions were related to Amara's name. In just one night, this bizarre and terrifying disappearance had spread throughout Carmel University.

This is a good thing, but it inevitably puts Mandy in a bad mood. This overwhelming investigation always makes her feel that Amara is in danger, because it turns out that every time there has been such a When a high-level disappearance case occurs, the greater the intensity of the police search, the lower the possibility of the victim being rescued.

She couldn't help but think of the nightmare scene she saw in the living room when she rushed into Amara's house yesterday. The bloodstains and traces of violence everywhere were simply suffocating.

"Huh" Mandy took a deep breath and exhaled. After thinking for a moment, she did not drive to the parking lot, but continued to press the accelerator and drove towards the teaching building in the distance.

After leaving the Porsche in the open space next to the teaching building, Mandy went directly to the third floor and found the door of the English class. After knocking three times, she opened the door. The classroom was quiet, and all eyes were focused on her. .

"Mandy!"

Lily, who was in the front row, suddenly stood up, ran over and hugged Mandy in front of all the students. Her voice was choked with sobs, and her face was still tired from a hangover, but her eyes were shockingly red. After hearing the news about Amala's murder, she cried a lot.

"It's okay." Mandy patted her back. Although she was in the middle of class, no one accused her of disrupting the class. The teacher behind the podium also supported the table and gently pressed her forehead, seemingly concerned about her students' experiences. I also felt extremely sad, and the whole classroom was full of low emotions.

"Let's continue with class. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it after class." Mandy led Lily to her seat. On the way, she glanced at the classroom and found that three transfer students were there, and they were all looking at her, but she also He didn't say anything, he just sat back in his seat.

Lily sat on the left side of Mandy, but the seat on the right was empty. It was a bit unaccustomed to it. Mandy could only take a deep breath to suppress the uncomfortable emotions in her heart, took out the textbook, and sat behind the podium. The teacher also adjusted his condition and continued teaching.

At the end of the class, the speaking rate was very low, and the frequency of the teacher's questions was also very low. Everyone's mind was not on the class. During this period, Mandy was picked up and read some articles hastily, and then the bell rang for the end of get out of class.

After the English teacher left the classroom, the chatter in the classroom finally started. Many people came to Mandy and Lily and stretched out their hands to lightly press their shoulders to express comfort. Several girls who had a good relationship with Amala also Standing together and crying.

"What the hell. Amala was playing dice with them at the party last night, but she actually did it in one night." A male student sitting near Amala kicked the desk and muttered.

"It would have been nice if Amala hadn't gone back last night. Who sent her back? Wouldn't this have killed Amala?" someone else muttered.

"I heard that Amala was in trouble. Some people said that they found fingers and remaining intestines on the crime scene."

"The person who sent Amara home seemed to be one of the transfer students? Did the police ask that person for questioning?"

"I'm not sure. I didn't attend the party last night. The people in the fraternity were probably questioned by the police, right? Maybe they were someone inside."

"Okay, this matter is over for now." Mandy spoke, interrupting the increasingly heated discussion in the classroom.

Everyone looked at her, and the more adventurous students kept their mouths shut. Although Mandy usually had a good temper, no one wanted to mess with her seriously.

"Leave this matter to the police. I hope Amara is fine. I also believe she will be fine. It is only a matter of time before she comes back." Mandy said softly, "For now, please don't go out of school to go out to bars at night. , it’s best for day students to go home together, especially girls.”

The students in the class were silent and nodded. Although many details of last night's case were concealed by the police, judging from the rumors revealed by Amara's neighbors, in the version circulated in the university last night, Amara It can be said that there was an inhumane and violent invasion in their home. The situation was so bad that it could be called horrific. Everyone was not optimistic about Amara's survival, and naturally no one wanted to become the next Amara.

"Chen Motong."

Mandy whispered some words of comfort to Lily before standing up and looking towards the corner of the classroom. As she called her name, many students also turned their attention to the transfer girl with long dark red hair.

"What's up?"

"Please come out with me. I have something to ask you." Mandy walked towards the classroom door and glanced at her. Her tone was very casual but contained a sense of command that was hard to refuse.

The other two transfer students in the classroom, Chu Zihang and Caesar, looked at each other and said nothing, allowing Chen Motong to be led out by Mandy.

—

Mandy and Chen Motong did not stop until they reached the window at the end of the corridor of the teaching building. Through the half-open window, they could overlook the landscape of half of the college. They looked at the police officers all over the school, and there were announcements in the wind. Regarding the recent safety issues for students across the school, please do not talk to strangers and report any suspects to the police immediately.

Mandy stood quietly by the window for a while, and Chen Motong stood not far away from her and stared at her quietly, seeming to be thinking about something.

"Were you at the party last night?" Mandy finally spoke first and turned to look at Chen Motong with dull eyes.

"Before I answer your question, let me make sure that this is not the rhythm of interrogating prisoners, right?" Chen Motong leaned against the wall and yawned slightly, turning to look at the bustling crowd of people leaving the classroom after class in the distance in the corridor.

"No, it's just that as Amara's friend, I really can't accept what happened to her. The only way to ease my emotions is to have a deeper understanding of what happened last night." Mandy said.

"The deeper you dig into this matter, the more guilt you will feel. From a psychological point of view, what you should do now is cry, then sleep and forget about it. "Chen Motong said.

"It's hard to forget that the only person Amara could rely on before she was killed last night was me, but I couldn't help her. Her voice still rings in my ears from time to time." Mandy said lightly, "I'm looking for you. I just want to ask you, who was the transfer student who sent Amara home last night? Was he one of the two boys in our class?"

"No, it's from the department next door. A boy named Lancelot is quite familiar with the handsome black-haired boy Chu Zihang in our class." Chen Motong said.

"Where is he now?"

"If you ask the police for questioning, there is no need to look for suspicion on him. He went back to the party directly after sending your friend off. Moreover, his body is clean. There is so much blood on the scene that he will not be stained by it at all." ." Chen Motong said.

"." Mandy was silent for a moment, looked up at Chen Motong and said nothing.

"What did your friend say on the phone last night? I'm curious, did she describe the prisoner's appearance?" Chen Motong asked.

"Looks like?"

Mandy seemed to have thought of something bad. She took a hard breath and looked out the window, shaking her head, "The situation is very special."

"That means no." Chen Motong nodded to express understanding, "What about other characteristics?"

"I said she met a terrifying monster and was kidnapped by the monster. Would you believe it?" Mandy turned her head and looked directly at Chen Motong.

"It's hard to believe, after all, there is no evidence." Chen Motong also looked into Mandy's eyes, "If you think your friend was kidnapped by a monster, then why don't you describe what the monster looks like?"

"Amara said very little on the phone but I knew that the one who attacked Amara was a monster." Mandy said firmly.

"What kind of monster? Humanoid or animal-shaped?" Chen Motong asked thoughtfully, "Is the skin yellow or black? Does it have claws? Does it have body hair? How many hands? How many feet? Are there wings on the back? ? Monsters must have these characteristics, right? If they don’t have these characteristics, why do you say the murderer is a monster? "

"What nonsense are you talking about? The murderer is just a monster that looks like a human. He doesn't have many hands or claws, and his skin can't be black and yellow. He is just a person, just a weird person, standing upside down. , white skin, bald, like "

"Have you seen monsters?" Chen Motong asked with a frown.

Mandy, who was trying to dig out her memory, was momentarily stagnant, "No."

"How come you know so much about the monster before you have seen it? You can also know the color of the monster's skin and the characteristics of its hair. Didn't you say that your friend didn't describe the monster's appearance in detail on the phone?"

"I" Mandy opened her mouth, suddenly feeling something was wrong, and found that Chen Motong's eyes were staring at her with an uncomfortable light, as if he wanted to dig something out of her head.

Yes, she has indeed never seen a monster. Why can't she help but have these specific characteristics pop up in her mind?

"It's quite strange." Chen Motong said, "That's why I thought that the monster was all imagined by you. When people encounter something they don't understand, their brains will actively make it reasonable. Why are you so sure? It was a monster that invaded the house, and you could describe the monster so realistically that you had obviously never seen it before."

At the end, Chen Motong suddenly paused, turned to look at Mandy and smiled jokingly, "Maybe you have seen it before? It's just that you forgot."

"Sorry, excuse me." A sad expression appeared on Mandy's face, she took a deep breath and prepared to leave.

Chen Motong stepped back slightly and leaned against the wall to get out of the way. She looked sideways at Mandy walking quickly into the corridor, a thoughtful look on her face.

"It looks like it's coming soon," she whispered.
