She sniffed in the air and this pungent smell made her wrinkle her nose. "Whose scent is th

No other organs. I had my eyes closed tightly and then noticed the silence in my cell. I slowly opened my eyes and looked at Rana and Megera, who looked at me with expectant gazes.

Ophelia is calm, Ellon is aggressive, and Monais timid: they are grouped to work on their weak points and stabilize their strong points. ”We can’t always expect things to be straight and open; if that criminal were straight, then he would have already been caught when he was murdered for the first time. And the police wouldn’t take so much time and let another nine murders happen; if they can find the clue at first, then there is no need for nine other girls to die; this case may be tricky. But at least we can fight hard and try to get justice for all the girls if we can; this is our main priority also, so let’s move on and work on our best to fight hard” Ophelia knows that this case is a li

Cassie asked "More familiar than I'd like" I muttered "My grandmother was obsessed with them. She'd make my brother and me solve one with her almost every day" Cassie raised an eyebrow "Is your riddle-solving talent public knowledge?"

I traced my finger along the intricate lines, my mind working overtime to decipher their meaning. Meanwhile, Victor focused on a locked drawer that seemed to hold additional clues.
