Chapter 384 C.S.I.

Jack added, “We saw Jude enter the bathroom ourselves. When I felt that something was off, I told someone to open the door only to discover that it was empty inside.”

“The inside of the bathroom was fine. It didn’t look like a fight broke out,” Jacob analyzed.

After hearing about the process, Vania said to the teacher, “Bring me to the surveillance room.”

The teacher only stood on the spot and stuttered awkwardly, “The surveillance system was down today.”

“Doesn’t the school require daily checks of the footage? Where’s the principal? Call her.”

Even though Vania already had Linda on the case, her main goal was to get more information from the school. Sadly, they did not know anything, which was testing her patience.

“The principal, she… isn’t here today…” The terrified teacher said this tremblingly, not daring to face Vania at all.

With a deathly stare, Vania nodded in response. “Nice. Very nice. I will deal with you all later.”

Turning around, she then looked at the trio and said, “Recall back and see what was amiss.”

It was then that Hanson suddenly spoke, “When you called for help, did the three of you go? Or did one of you stay there?”

Shocked, one of them answered, “We all went. Maybe someone took Jude away during that time?”

Yet, Hanson only replied, “No. He went off by himself.”

His words stunned everyone.

Could it be that this was not a missing person case?

While Vania and the trio were racking their brains, only the teacher had a smug expression as she said, “Miss, you should teach your children better and not let them wander off on their own. Now that he has gone missing, the responsibility lands on the school.”

The teacher spoke with disdain.

Her attitude made Vania shoot a glare at her. “Up till now, nothing is set in stone yet. Is this what you should say as a teacher? You don’t have to be in such a rush just yet. It will soon be revealed who needs to take responsibility, and no one will escape their fate.”

Due to the teacher’s fear of Vania’s fierceness, she lowered her head and shut up, even though she was still unconvinced.

Vania then asked Hanson, “Why did you say that?”

Turning his attention to the trio, Hanson asked, “You said that Jude went missing during classes, right?”

“That’s right.” James nodded.

“Were there any other classmates present when you felt that something was off?”

After recollecting the scene, Jack nodded, “There was.”

“That proves my point. If someone took Jude away under forceful circumstances, he would have screamed for help loudly and everyone here would’ve reacted to that.”

Hanson continued deducing and asked, “Did you ask the other children after the incident about Jude?”

Jacob replied, “The bathroom stall’s door had been locked all that while. When we opened it, Jude was already gone. The other children said they didn’t see him.”

Nodding, Hanson stated, “Let’s take a look in the bathroom.”

That teacher watched them analyze the situation as if it were a movie, looking surprised.

Watching them leave, she immediately followed after them.

As it was during a time where classes were still ongoing, the bathroom did not have anybody in it, which made things more convenient.

James pointed at the door. “It was this stall.”

After taking a look around, Hanson suddenly fixed his gaze on the window above the stall.
