Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: Can We Escape?

"Don't make some noise" he whispered "Please, be quiet" he holds my hand. He pulled it until we went to one room here in one room. "Why are you here?" he looks at me, eye to eye.

"I should be the one asking you that, Why are you here?" I sat down on the chair near the table. I think this is an office of someone. He never turns his gaze on other things. He's only looking at me.

"I'm investigating what I heard in the news." He said in a throaty voice. He sat down beside me. Then he took out his handkerchief to wipe his sweat.

So this is the reason why I didn't saw him in our school a while ago. I almost forgot what I've said a while ago that almost all of the students in Qahkil Law School are interested and curious about the crime that happened here.

"I'm also here to investigate, " he noticed that I'm sweating buckets that's why he offers his other handkerchief to me. "You know, I got curious when I heard the news"

He moved his chair close to me when the electric fan open. His face is so near to me because he was trying to feel the air. He keeps coming close to me to the point that our face touch! He immediately made a big distance from me. "I'm sorry, that was an accident" this is really awkward! I didn't say that it wasn't an accident, is he being defensive?

"You should not go here! It's dangerous here!" The awkward situation suddenly went away.

"I know but like what I have said, I am also curious. I want to investigate too!" I said but it looks like my reason wasn't enough. I'm already tired of talking so I never talk again until we heard a weird noise. We both look at each other, eye to eye. When he was about to say something, I put my index finger in her lips.

I pulled his wrist to take a look if someone was here except us. But when I take a glance outside the office, there was no person! "Did you saw someone?" he curiously asked. I shook my head. I was really scared but I make sure that he would not notice it. "Let me take a look" I moved backward and he stepped his feet forward. "There's no one in here"

My heart was beating so fast, thinking that the weird noise was the person who died here. I'm sweating buckets because of what I am thinking. "You're nervous, aren't you?" he asked.

"No, I'm not," I said defensively "Let's just be quiet. We didn't know, maybe someone is listening to us" I said playfully, trying to scare him. But he didn't even react or take a glance at me!

"No one saw someone who went out here?" someone asked. Zavien and I both stay quiet. We are both sweating a lot right now. He only has one handkerchief, it's disgusting if we share that with each other.

"Maybe, he or she is still hiding here" Zavien and I both widened our eyes. "How do you say so?" one man said. I wish that man would not agree that the killer is hiding here. If ever he agrees, we are both dead! We are still a law student.

"Maybe, we should ask chief about that" we breathed a sigh of relief. That was a good decision police officer.

"That's a relief," he said while wiping his sweat. "But, how can we go out here?" he asked then he ran her hands through his hair. "We are not safe here" he whispered.

Yes, he's right, maybe the killer was hiding here. But, we are not safe here. "I don't know. I only know the entrance way" I said while using my hand like a fan. He smacked his forehead.

"What are we going to do now. If someone saw us hiding here, I'm sure we are in danger" he is topping himself to be very nervous when I can see in his eyes that he is nervous. As far as I heard about him, he is a scholar law student. So if someone saw us here, he is more in danger.

"Don't worry, we can escape here. We just need time to think about how" I gave him a wide smile. He should not be scared now instead, we should think now. "Let's do a plan now" I commanded.

He smiles widely than I gave him a while ago. That was what I want. We should not be nervous in this kind of situation, even if it makes me nervous too. We should avoid that.

"Do you know some secret exit way here?" I asked. If he knows some secret exit way here, we can escape. But if he doesn't, we should think and plan more.

"None, it's my first time here" shocks! What are we going to do now! "How about you? Do you know secret exit way here?" I shook my head. "Then we should plan"

"I think the only way out here in the front part of the museum," I said. He looked not convicted on what I have said.

"That is possible and impossible at the same time" I furrowed my forehead. I can not understand what he means by that. It's possible and impossible at the same time? I really do not get it.

"What do you mean?" we sat down again.

"It's possible that this museum doesn't have a secret exit way. But as of what I have watched, the museums in the movies where the crime happened always had a secret exit way." I chuckled "It's true! When I am watching a crime scene on tv it also had a secret exit way." he defended

"Where do you think it is?" I asked.

His shoulder jumped "I am not sure but as of what I have watched again, it's always on the back part of a museum."

"Let's check," I said. We both stand up and slowly open the office door. This museum is mysterious. I can't see the wall clearly because of the big paintings. Almost all of the spaces on the wall are full of paintings. I try to take a look at the only door that I saw except at the office. My jaw dropped. Why do they have so many of this?
