Thanks to the cancellation of classes, most of the teachers had gone off to discuss things either in the teacher's lounge, or with the headmaster. This gave Annie and Ymir the perfect opportunity to check out the scene of the murder. Annie snorted in disgust at the floor of the classroom. "You'd think after the body stained the classroom with blood they'd clean it up, but no, let's leave the evidence."

Ymir smirked, hopping onto the desk. "You think this school wants to do that? Nah, they'd take pictures just to get some type of insurance for all these deaths."

"Don't talk like that. We're here to look for clues. The staff isn't my concern, unless of course one of them is the murderer." Annie grunted at the sight of the bloodstains a final time. "How did the killer even murder him again?"

Ymir bit into an apple that had been left on Professor Kane's desk. "Who knows? 'Aybe they strangled him."

Annie slapped the apple out of her hand. "Or he was poisoned. Spit that out."

Ymir spit out her chewed up apple pieces onto the floor, "Oh great, now they're going to find my DNA on the apples and think I killed him."

"Burn them."

"What?"

Annie sighed, "Never mind…" She bent down, picking up the apple, and shoved the chewed up pieces into her pocket. "Remind me to make you pay for my dry cleaning, Ymir."

Ymir crossed her arms in a pout. "You're the one who told me to spit it out. You didn't have to pick it up."

Annie rolled her eyes. "Don't you have another room to check?"

Ymir perked up. "I do, actually! Catch you later my dear short blonde companion." Ymir leapt off the desk, bolting out of the room with an excited grin.

Annie rubbed her hands on her pants leg. "And to think she's older than me…" Annie pulled out her cell phone, dialing a number, then placing the phone to her ear. "You'd better pick up this time…" She mumbled.

The phone rang a few second, and then a man's voice spoke on the other end. "Hey! Annie! It's been awhile since you called me, babe!"

"I called you this morning. I even tried last night, but you didn't pick up."

"Oh really?" It sounded like mock surprise. "I guess I've been pretty busy with work. How's that mission of yours?"

"It's fine if you like staring at blood stains across the walls."

There was a nervous chuckle on his end, and he cleared his throat. "Uh—Annie, actually, I've been avoiding your calls, to be honest."

No duh. Annie faked surprise. "What? Why?"

"Well uh…"

She felt her muscles tense when she heard another voice in the background, "Danny sweetie, where do you keep those wine bottles again?"

Annie snarled into the phone, "Is—is that a girl in there?!"

Danny chuckled fearfully, "Oh. That. She…"

Annie's anger rose when she heard the high-pitched monster again, "Oh, who's on the phone? Is that your cousin?! Hi Annie, it's me Daisy!"

Danny laughed, "Yeah, yeah, it's my uh—hey go uh—Daisy please, I'm on the phone…okay yeah…"

Annie heard the girl's voice fade away, indicating she had trotted off somewhere. Annie gripped her phone tightly, "I didn't know we were cousins, Danny…"

"Listen, babe, I'm sorry. But I—I've been meaning to tell ya…I don't think I can date a secret agent, the distance is driving me crazy I—I need a girl I'll see. I never see you I—what I mean to say is the engagement's off, Annie."

"Uh huh." Annie bit her lip.

"Try to understand."

"Understand?!" Annie didn't care if she was pacing over fresh blood. She had to move in some way or end up crushing her phone. "You could have broken up with me, but no, you had to cheat on me to get out of it! I can't believe I didn't see this coming! You're just like all those other losers that lied to me. And worst of all, I really did love you, you stupid jerk!"

"Now, Annie…we had fun, right?"

"Fun?! So I was just fun to you?!"

"Look, sweetie…"

"Don't call me sweetie, you Daisy picking cheating Ass." Annie ended the call, tossing her phone across the room. She wanted to punch one of the desks or throw it but that would either blow her cover or cause suspicion.

She glared in disgust at the bloodstains from Kane. "It's a shame mister flower man can't join you in hell…wasted a whole two years with that creep…"

Annie snatched her phone off the floor, shoving it angrily into her pocket. She felt her eyes watering, and cursed mentally. "You're not going to cry over a stupid man like that, you wimp." She punched a locker on her way down the hall, a first year jumping with fright at the sight of it. She felt her phone buzzing, and angrily pulled it out of her pocket. If it was Danny—no—it was Levi. She took a breath, and answered. "What?"

"Well don't you sound cheerful."

"Shut up, midget. Just tell me what you want."

Levi snorted. "Especially cheerful…I was going to ask if you found anything."

"No." Annie hung up the phone, and shoved it back into her pocket. It buzzed again, but she ignored it.

She clenched her fists, and continued with the investigation.
