In a small enclosed room with thick walls for soundproofing, with a dim light from the electric lamp, which shined directly on a small table in the middle, there were two chairs on either side of the interrogation table, where the first seat was a young man with thick eyebrows, black hair falling over his eyes, sharp eyes , pale white, signs of misery and anger loomed over his face, and his trembling hands were bound.
On the other side sat a young man in his early thirties in an olive shirt and black jacket,
He had black eyes and a burgundy complexion.
The man in the black jacket asked the man in the opposite seat, as he said in a deep voice,
"So you are neither a student nor a graduate, and you have never been a member or even an employee of the university,
What is your reason for attending Elite University's alumni party?"
The accused did not answer, as silence fell over the place for a moment; The features of the accused did not change even by a small thing.
It seemed to the investigator that the accused did not care about him or the legal procedure that might pursue him at the end of the investigation day.
Which made the investigator say to him in an angry tone, which made him more severe:
"Well, it seems you intended to remain silent, but that won't help you, like it or not, we'll start the interrogation, What's your name, age, and occupation? "
The accused answered in a shaky and faint voice:
"My name is Sujin, and my family surname is Yu. I am thirty-two years old. I also work as a programmer for an international company in the United States."
Then detective continued,
"Why are you attending the Elite University Alumni Ceremony? "
Then Sujin replied,
"What is wrong with that? I wanted to come to the party for my dead sister.
I just wanted to be there as if she was the one there, I wanted to hear her honor speech, but even that simple thing these devils didn't do."
Sujin's words made the detective angry, and he said a bit loudly:
"Are you kidding me? After reviewing the cameras, we found that you impersonated several characters - for example, at eight in the morning I impersonated an assistant professor and at six in the evening the cameras recorded, that you changed your dress and dressed as a waiter, Worse than all the above, you pointed a gun at some of the attendees, which terrified everyone at the party. "
Sujin is indifferent to the investigator's talk and said to him in a tone of sarcasm and mockery:
"Well, detective, I only aimed my weapon at the killers, but did I hit any of them? If only I really wished to kill them!"
The expressions of anger on the investigator's face quickly turned to expressions of astonishment at the person sitting in front of him.:
"Look at me here, Mr. Sujin, you seem for some reason; I don't really get it, you're mixing things up, you're here because you were accused of attempted murder, be helpful for yourself first!"
The Inquisitor's phrases made Sujin even more irony, and he added,
"Sir, by virtue of your profession, you must have a high level of intelligence,
You don't understand what's going on right now.
let me tell you something, I don't trust policemen like you, who sympathized with the killers, who let them live their lives without any regrets, you should have tied them here instead of me but ..."
Sujin laughed sarcastically, his eyes welling with tears, and was staggering a little, as his legs seemed to no longer bear him, then he added his speech in an angry tone and said,
"Say to those who hurt Subin while she's alive, then...
They did not make her even die in peace,….
I will only leave this world ...."
Before he could finish his sentence, Sujin collapsed unconscious, falling on the floor of the cold room ...
The investigator shouted on his face with expressions of concern, to bring a doctor for the accused, and ordered the policemen to take him to the government hospital next to the department.
After making sure that the accused was in the hospital, he ordered the soldiers to bring the rest of the witnesses to give their statements.
The policeman announced the presence of the first witness, saying:
"The first witness is waiting outside. Shall I invite him now to come in?"
"Of course, let him in" – the detective replied
As soon as the detective finished his sentence, there was the sound of heels knocking in the distance and then a good-looking girl with short fine hair, black as the night, with pale white skin and gray eyes wearing a black low-gloss dress, appeared, and at the moment the policeman closed the door of the room, she said:
"I'm the witness Mi-Young, I was called today to give my statement"
"All right, Mi-Young, let's start with your personal information?" – detective said
Mi-Young replied,
"My name is Chen Mi-Young, I am 29 years old, and I work as a designer for an international fashion house"
"OK, Mrs. Mi-Young, please tell us what happened at the party, especially before the accident." – detective said
Mi-Young sighed and sank slightly into her thoughts about the events that had unfolded since she set foot in the concert hall,
When she reached the lobby of the hall, there was a loud noise and men in formal suits and women in modern dresses, and because she works in the field of fashion, that was the first thing that attracted her attention. She walked slowly, looking at the faces of all the men present and as if she was looking for someone in her own right,
However, she was interrupted by the host of the ceremony, as a woman in her forties was standing in the middle of the hall, in front of her the microphone, which reverberated throughout the hall, and behind it a very large screen, showing the schedule of the concert, and she said:
"The university administration has the honor to hold a reunion ceremony for the graduates of the first batch, who joined Elite University,
This batch was very special - here we meet five years after their graduation, each star shining in their field - let us remember a little the memories of this chapter, which we value and respect."
As soon as the host of the party finished her speech, Mi-Young arrived at her designated table, she knew that Dak-Ho and Min-Ki would be with her at the same table according to the university organizing team, who had informed them before,
Dak-Ho had sharp features and wore eyeglasses, his pale white skin, he had black eyes and black hair, while Min-Ki, his complexion was burgundy and the color of his eyes was fiery brown, which matched well with his bright brown hair, she smiled seeing them sitting waiting for her:
"Hey guys, how are you doing now" she said,
Min-Ki replied,
"Hello.... Welcome to the babe of Elite University"
A smile formed on her lips, then she looked at Dak-Ho, and said:
"Hi Dak-Ho, how are you?
You seem not happy to see me after this long?"
"Of course, not, Mi-Young, I'm so glad to see you" – Dak-Ho,
Then the host of the ceremony resumed her speech, saying,
"Pay attention, audience, in ten minutes, we will present a video showing the students of the 2015 class with their professors, get your glasses ready and enjoy the party!"
Then Mi-Young added,
"Being here after five years, do you remember our college days?"
Dak-Ho replied,
"Yes, Mi-Young, - I can't believe the years have passed like this - but I am satisfied that the years have passed, I have achieved what I wanted and more."
then Min-Ki said,
"Speaking of achieving goals, it's been five years and we haven't communicated, so I don't know what, what are your guys' accomplishments over the past years",
Then he continued his speech, feeling proud, saying:
"I became an engineering director at the largest software company in our country, Elite Group, and I am still single, perhaps because I'm busy enough with my work...or I haven't found the right partner."
Dak interrupted him saying,
"Yes, I read about you in one of the newspapers, I agree with you, that you have achieved what you really want, except that you are still single, I remember that you wanted to marry as soon as you settled, but it's okay, my friend...., I became the director of general surgery at the family hospital; I mean, I'm the youngest manager to hold this position, I married a famous doctor and we have a four-year-old son"
Min-Ki said surprised:
"What is this! Wait a minute, I got married right after graduation, your unbelievable man, Mi-Young is going to get upset now."
Mi-Young and Dak-Ho both seemed nervous and annoyed by Min-Ki's speech, and Mi-Young quickly continued her speech, to break the uneasy feeling saying:
"Of course, even if we haven't communicated over the years, but you sure have heard about the best fashion designers in our country and how the most famous design houses are racing to get me to join their agency, I got married too, businessman Jun Cha, you sure hear about him, and we had our wedding two years ago and now We are planning to welcome a new baby"
Min-Ki added,
"Well, then I'm the only bachelor here, it's not fair"
Dak furrowed his eyebrows and looked at Min-Ki and said:
"It seems that the complex of perfection is still chasing you until now, you can't see someone taking a step ahead of you, even something like marriage!"
Mi-Young interrupts him, saying:
"Stop guys, you haven't changed at all since college, by the way, I don't see Ji Ho, do any of you know anything about him?"
Min-Ki said sarcastically:
"I don't think he's coming, I imagine he's still emaciated crying somewhere for Subin, even if I don't know anything about him but I can assure you it would be pathetic."
Mi-Young said while sighing:
"Subin! Please stop, why do you remember that name now, I was in a really good mood and screwed up when I heard her name."
At this moment, a good-looking man with bright chestnut hair and green eyes was walking towards them, confident and handsome, in a royal blue suit, making both Min-Ki and Dak-Ho look jealous and surprised. Then Mi-Young said in a sarcastic tone,
"What is that? Is this guy Ji Ho! Does this person really look pathetic to you?"
Then Detective interrupted Mi-Young thoughts, saying:
"Excuse me, Mrs. Mi-Young, please continue your conversation.
Looks like you've been a badge of mind for a while."
Mi-Young replied shyly,
"Yes, I'm sorry"
Then she added,
"After the video started appearing on the screen and the lights went out, we were all surprised by..."
