Chapter 856


    Everyoneughed when Epson said that.


    It gradually became bright outside. One by one, the Staav University professors reported for work.


    Students also gradually woke up in the dormitories and went for their sses.

    Everyone had believed Brenda when she said with absolute conviction that Barbarian would definitely


    take action-after all, Interpol had extraordinary status.


    Regardless, Epson still went to the university president’s office and told him that the serial murderers or


    whatnot didn’t exist at all. He even pointed out something angrily and said, “Professor Mayer was


    probably killed at home by people seeking revenge on him, but that group of people are not only clinging


    onto this but even carrying this over to a serial killer hypothesis. This is just the police’s excuse for their


    ipetence! There are so many projects to be done at Staav University, are we really going to follow


    their instructions and leave work on time every day? This is ridiculous!”


    Upon hearing Epson, the other professors and students rushing their work also approached the


    president to lodge theirints.


    “Our projects cannot afford any more dys! Since nothing went wrong in Professor Epson’sbst


    night, this means it’s okay for us to work after hours too.”


    “Yeah, we can’t halt our progress just because of a murderer who may not even exist.”


    “If our progress is affected, it will also affect Staav University.”


    The president couldn’t hold up under the pressure of so many people, so he went to Brenda.


    “Captain Brenda, I know you guys are from Interpol, but nothing has happened at allst night. The


    murder pattern of that serial killer ‘Barbarian’ you mentioned, is that once he starts killing, he must kill


    one person every day before he’ll stop, but no one diedst night. The professors and students have


    begun to raise objections and they areining that your regtory measures are too strict!”


    Brenda, who was dressed in a military uniform, straightened her back. She looked at the president and


    slowly asked, “Are you sure there is nothing wrong with all the professors?”


    “Yes, I’m sure!”


    The president sighed. “Although we are morally obligated to cooperate with you, nothing of the sort that


    you mentioned happened yesterday, so I think you must be mistaken. It’s impossible that Barbarian


    would be in the school. Alternatively, maybe the screening was done well yesterday, so he didn’t have a


    chance to enter the school at all. I’m afraid we can’t cooperate with you anymore.”


    Brenda exined nervously, “Sir, yesterday’s situation was indeed unexpected and non-conforming to


    Barbarian’s killing pattern, but trust me, I have been tracking him for three years now. There’s no way I


    would be wrong. He must be the one who killed that professor on the first day! He’s definitely here in


    Staav University!”


    The principal replied, “I believed you when you told me this yesterday. When I asked you if you had any


    evidence, you told me that you were basing this on intuition. But Captain Brenda, there are times when


    one’s intuition can go wrong. Do you have any actual evidence? For example, traces of himself that


    Barbarian leaves behind after he kills someone?”


    A stern-faced Brenda exined, “He has always been cautious and doesn’t leave anything but a poker


    card behind after he murders someone. When Professor Mayer died, there was a poker card in his


    home.”


    The president sighed. “But what if the murderer deliberately did that to mislead you? So that you’ll


    suspect it’s Barbarian? The school carries out and researches hundreds of projects every year and many


    of them are pressed for time. They really can’t afford to be dyed! Captain Brenda, do you think…”


    Brenda’s expression tensed up and she said, “Sir, do you know who Barbarian is? He has gone on five


    killing sprees during the past three years, and each time, he killed five people in a row before he


    stopped. Some of them might have been bad eggs, but some of them were also innocent citizens! In


    order to kill someone, Barbarian once ced a bomb and killed an entire bus full of people with him! He


    has no concept of life at all. It’s most dangerous when there are many students in the school. I don’t think


    you would want murders to take ce, either, right?! Once Barbarian shows up, if there are too many


    people around, there will be countless casualties. Are you sure you really don’t care?”


    Brenda’s words made the president’s jaw tense up. After a while, he sighed and said, “Fine, you’ve


    convinced me again. But if the situation still differs from what you say after tonight, then we may not be


    able to cooperate with you anymore.”


    Brenda nodded. “No problem.”


    When she came out, Aaron came forward at once. He said, “Captain Brenda, what on earth is up with


    Barbarian? He didn’t do anythingst night? The professors and students are all calling us good-for-


    nothings now and some are even telling our men stationed at their positions what to do! Our guys are all


    feeling really awful!”


    Aaron gritted his teeth in fury and added, “That guy named Epson is especially bad. He brought his


    students with him and openly called us ipetent.”
