Chapter 858



.

The time they came for lunch coincided with Epson.

The students were busy with experiments, but Epson didn’t have much to do, so he was free to go out for lunch.

As soon as he walked in, he saw that all the students around him were looking in one direction. He followed everyone’s gaze and looked to see the couple standing out in the crowd in their uniforms.

Epson curved his lips immediately. He grimaced and then walked over. “What a coincidence, Captain Brenda, I didn’t expect you guys to come here for lunch too. But why do they still have time to eat, didn’t they say the serial killer is at the school? Everyone has given up their experiments to cooperate with the police, so shouldn’t they be so busy catching the bad guys that they don’t even have time to eat? …”

Epson spoke sarcastically.

As he spoke, Brenda and Aaron only thought for two seconds before jumping to their feet. They moved so fast that Epson got a fright.

In particular, Brenda and Aaron had a fierce and wild look in their eyes at that moment, which scared Epson so much that he took a step back and waved his arms in front of him.

“What are they doing? Captain Brenda, we’re on campus now. I won’t take it to heart that I got hit last time, but there are a lot of students watching us now. If you dare…”

Before he could finish, Brenda and Aaron ran out of the cafeteria at lightning speed.

Epson: “…”

Epson: “…”

He stood where he was confused, bewildered by what the couple had just done.

He frowned. At that moment, a nearby student approached and asked, “Professor Epson, what just happened, what’s with those two?”

Epson thought for a moment and replied, “I reprimanded them just now, so they must have suddenly woken up and come to their senses, I guess. So they’ve gone on patrol and gone to look for the assassin. I think the blockade will be lifted soon. Besides, I guess they’ll also have realized that it wasn’t a serial killer who killed Professor Mayer, so they’re too embarrassed to confront us!”

Epson convinced even himself with his words.

All the students in the vicinity nodded to Epson. They said, “Professor, you are truly an educator both morally and scientifically. You not only impart knowledge to us, but even teach some principles of life.”

“Professor, your project will definitely succeed! You will definitely complete it faster than Anti.”

After feeling a little flattered by the students, Epson stepped forward and said, “Yes, I think so too. Aha, you don’t have to look at me like that, I just did what I was supposed to…”

Elsewhere, after Brenda and Aaron ran out of the cafeteria, they went straight to the staff dormitories where the teachers lived.

The teachers had not been allowed to go home, so Peter lived there too. As they ran, Brenda asked, “When was the last time you saw Peter?”

Aaron replied, “At nine o’clock last night. We parted ways after checking together that all the teachers, except Epson, had gone to the staff dormitory.”

Brenda frowned. She took a deep breath and said slowly, “Barbarian has a habit of killing between eleven o’clock at night and four o’clock in the morning.

Therefore, it was possible that Peter had actually been killed!

Aaron also became nervous. He picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke into it. He asked, “Jabil, have you seen Professor Peter today?”.

“I’ve exchanged a few text messages with him. Just half an hour ago, he was telling me he could go to the cafeteria for lunch.”

Aaron interrupted him, “What I’m asking you is if you’ve seen him in person.”

The other party paused and then replied, “No.”

Aaron took a deep breath and said, “Make your way to Professor Peter’s room in the staff dormitory immediately!”

“Roger!”

After hanging up, Brenda and Aaron sped up even more.

The two were anxious to solve the case, but even more anxious to save Peter. As they ran, they didn’t notice Solo and Nora coming out of the corner.

Seeing them, Solo immediately went after them.

Nora also followed close behind them.

Solo said, “Judging by their appearance, they probably found something related to the suspect. Let’s follow them and take a look. If we can help, let’s do it. Serial killers are too dangerous.”

Nora nodded. “Yes.” Brenda resented Barbarian.

After all, to her, Barbarian was the one who had killed Justin, but it wasn’t like Nora could tell her the truth either. Nora was worried that Brenda would take things too personally and end up forcing a fight with Barbarian.

She had already witnessed Barbarian’s strength.

He was an extremely tough opponent.

With that in mind, Nora picked up the pace.

When Brenda and Aaron reached the staff dormitories, the two exchanged a glance. Then, back to back, they ran in. Both held their guns and had them pointed forward.

Brenda walked in front while Aaron followed behind.

Like old companions, the two cooperated smoothly.

Thus, they reached Peter’s door. Brenda knocked on it. Immediately after, she tightly gripped her pistol and said, “Professor Peter, I have something to talk to you about. Please open the door.

Just after he spoke, he heard footsteps coming from the room.

Brenda narrowed her eyes and exchanged a glance with Aaron.

Aaron took a deep breath. “The person inside may be the killer.”

Brenda nodded as well.

However, despite the movement inside, no one opened the door.

Brenda put her hand on the doorknob and tried to open the door, but could not. She looked at the anti-theft lock on the door.

At Staav University, professors’ rooms usually contained their research material, so each door was fitted with digital locks. It was difficult to crack the password from the outside.

Brenda didn’t have the password to Peter’s room.

She paused for a moment. Aaron pointed his gun at the lock, intending to shoot.

However, Brenda stopped him. She said, “Unless you have the password, you won’t be able to break the lock even if you shoot him. On the contrary, we might even alert the enemy.”

Aaron was anxious. “But if we delay any longer, the person inside is going to escape!”

Brenda’s eyebrows drew together. As she thought, a faint voice was heard.

“I… I can open the lock for you.”

Hearing the voice, Brenda and Aaron turned their heads in unison to see Solo stuck to the wall like a wimp. Seeing the couple approaching, he looked at Brenda ingratiatingly and said, “I can pick the lock for you. Give me ten seconds.”

After speaking, he pulled out his cell phone and began tapping.

Seeing this, Brenda’s pupils shrank.

She reached over sharply and grabbed the phone from Solo. “I don’t need your help!”

Unfortunately, she was too late.

By the time Solo offered to open the digital lock on the door, he had already started attacking her. Just after Brenda spoke, the door opened with a clack!

The person inside also appeared in front of everyone at that moment.

He didn’t expect so many people to rush in, so he seemed quite nervous. When he heard their voices, he immediately stood up.

“Don’t move!”

“Freeze! Put your hands up!”

Brenda and Aaron shouted at the same time and pointed their guns at him.

Not even Barbarian would be able to defend himself against the firearms!

After all, the genetic serum had only enhanced his physical state. It couldn’t turn his skin into steel!

“Turn around!”

The tall, stout figure slowly turned around. It was a face that looked familiar to Nora…..
