Chapter 2
It has been 4 minutes since the scream was heard. Finally the power went back on and the cart was immediately illuminated. The light blinded everyone for just a second. As we all adjusted ourselves, I checked to see the whole cart a mess. There were snacks scattered across the floor with the trolley at the door leading into the crew cart and everyone, still in their seats, seemed shaken. But then Bakurachick let out a terrible scream.
“AAAAAAAH!” she said trying to cover her mouth.
We all looked at Bakurachick who was staring across her row. There lied SSY with a dining knife lodged into his chest. He was lying on the edge of his chair lingering over the aisle. Everyone stared in shock.
“Oh my god” said Eygptianeye.
Sajeev covered his eyes, Azat covered her eyes in shock, and everyone else stared.
“What do we do?” asked Cocyta
“We should stop this train and contact the authorities at once” said FSS
We all looked out and see only mountain range. FSS checked the map only to discover that there is no community or town around us. Our closest place of civilization was at our destination. We managed to call the police there and they will meet us at the station once we arrive. I would be glad to have someone else solve this crime. But if we wait for 3 hours the killer could escape or kill the other passengers. The suspect needs to be stopped before someone else is harmed.
“That’s good, we just wait for the cops” said Cocyta
“But, I don’t want to be in a train with a murderer” replied a shaky Bakurachick.
I saw my chance to but in. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a glowing gold badge and stood up.
“No need, Detective Smith on the case”
I quickly placed the badge into my jacket pocket. The passengers seemed confused at first, but finally agreed to go along. Based on the knife wound, the killer stabbed SSY in the chest cavity in a quick upward motion. The killer could have grabbed the knife at any time and has seemed to have wiped the handle of prints. So far there were no leads on the murder weapon. The people started to get unsettled.
“It’s obviously you!” said Azat pointing at Bakurachick
“What? It wasn’t me! I wouldn’t kill anyone” protested Bakurachick.
“I bet it was JR or Cocyta! They look awfully suspicious” suspected Eygptianeye
“It’s obviously Sajeev” replied Cocyta “SSY was going to arrest you, so you killed him!”
“WHAT!” Sajeev replied, angrily.
The arguments continued with useless accusations. I grew tired of this and got ready to stop the nonsense.
“Everyone…”
“NO U!” yelled Azat who was talking with JR.
“Okay now people, I need”
“You probably did it” said Eygptianeye who was accusing Cocyta.
“FINGERS ON LIPS” I yelled, placing my index finger on my lips making the shushing noise.
Everyone silenced and I asked to interrogate them in order to find out who the killer is. The first suspect I asked was SSY’s associate Bakurachick.
“Call me Baku” said Bakurachick “Well, SSY and I are on a little business trip and…”
“Why are we even going through this, it’s obviously Baka she’s the only one who knew SSY personally.” Interrupted Azat “Or Sajeev, the guy SSY caught, Yeah I bet it was him!”
“I didn’t kill the guy” complained Sajeev “It was probably that FSS fellow!”
“Why would it be him?” I asked, but was soon interrupted.
“It could be anyone, although I agree with Azat” Said FSS “Baku and Sajeev are the only ones with any relations with the man.”
“Let me finish! Now Sajeev, why do you think FSS did it?” I asked.
“Well I was hiding in the train and I got hungry so I tried to sneak into the crew cart in order to find some food. Then I accidently knocked over a large bag open and some papers fell out.”
“What are the papers about?” I asked.
“That’s none of your business Detective Smith” Interrupted Baku.
“I’m making it my business!” I replied sternly “Continue Sajeev.”
Sajeev continued “The papers was screenplays and scripts, but I didn’t get to read them cause SSY entered the cart and caught me. He threatened that if I told anyone about the papers he will arrest me. But then FSS entered the cart and spotted the papers.”
“I’ll continue it from there” said FSS “I offered to help fix his bags and I noticed that the papers was for a animated series and SSY was a lead script writer for 4kids”
“So FSS knew SSY works for 4kids” said Sajeev “he must have done it!”
“Wait, What? SSY works for 4kids. 4kids the U.S. animation studio! That 4kids? Him?” I asked puzzled. I wasn’t happy with this news, but it did help me. “It looks like the suspect is strongly against 4Kids. He or she knew that SSY was a lead writer and was going on this train.”
“But who?” asked Azat.
I thought of everyone on the train; a casual comic artist, a drunken party girl, a ginger haired woman, the victims associate, a cornered stowaway, the train moderator, and waitress. One of these people killed SSY. And I have less than 3 hours to find out whom.
