Together they quickly walked upstairs and entered Mew's room. There wasn't much irregularity in the room. Desk with dozens of books and notebooks on top and a bed was at one wall, at the opposite side was a bookcase with tv on top. There was a huge carpet behind the bookcase.

Mew went to the other wall and pushed the small bookcase to the other side of the room. She then pulled up the carpet and indeed there was the hole, big enough for any person to crawl through.

The other side of the hole also seemed be blocked off by a carpet. Salim crawled through the hole and went into the other side.

"Yeah, I'm in Hori's room now, no doubt about it, the hole works." said Salim.

"Well, this does explain the confusion I was having about how Hori escaped from her room when there is no passage to do so" said Fushichin.

Salim crawled back into Mew's room and got up to his feet and asked "Did you tell anyone about this hole?"

"No, only Hori and I knew. If anyone else knew they could tell our parents. And they would be furious." said Mew.

Salim put his hand on his mouth and thought for a while. His eyes became sharp and he said

"That means one thing, only you could have kidnapped Hori."

"What?" gasped Mew.

"Yeah, what else would it mean. You were the only person who knew about the existence of this hole besides Hori. The kidnapper has to have known about this hole to kidnap her." said Salim.

"But but, I didn't, I would never do anything to hurt Hori." said Mew with a frown.

"You seem to have deep lust towards her. I wouldn't be surprised if you decided to kidnap her away from rest of the household members" said Salim coldly.

"Well, there is one other possibility. A possibility far more likely." said Fushichin.

"What's that?" asked Hellen.

"Hori escaped on her own. Maybe she thought the oppression she felt at this mansion was too much and wanted to run away from it all." said Fushichin.

Then his eyes became sad and he continued "I suppose there is one problem with this theory."

"That's right! Hori would never leave me alone and escape. We would escape together if that were the case." said Mew timidly.

"No, not that. You need a master keycard or Mew's own private room key to open Mew's room door." said Fushicin.

"Exactly, that's why my theory is superior." said Salim confidently and continued saying

"Mew lied about watching tv. She was in fact, kidnapping and putting Hori into her room at that time."

"As hot as that might be. No, I didn't do something like that." said Mew.

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

"Only she can unlock her own room door from the inside." said Salim while wagging his finger.

"What are you two talking about? Do you know how to read?" grumbled Klancy with a frown after scrolling through the truth files.

"Both of your logic is based on nonsense. Look at this." said Klancy as he showed his phone to the detectives.

“The private room doors can be unlocked from the inside without a keycard. If you pull the door handle down from the inside even a locked door would unlock." said Klancy.

"Oh shit, you're right. Wait, that actually means my theory was better than Salim's all along." said Fushichin happily.

"We both can't read. Don't try to be the lesser loser here." said Salim with moody tone. He then added "And besides, my theory still stands. Only Mew and Hori could have known about the hole.

Mew used this to her advantage. She unlocked her own door at 20:05 and entered her room. Using the hole,she entered Hori's room, knocked out Hori, carried Hori and exited her own room and locked it at 20:30.

Afterwards she took and hid Hori somewhere we wouldn't find. And then she unlocked and locked her door at 23:20 to make it seem like she is exiting her own room at 23:20 to make an alibi for herself."

After carefully laying out his theory Salim eyed the detectives and then turned to Mew with a frown.

"Where would I hide Hori? You can't just accuse me with a theory that lacks in details explaining the major steps." grunted Mew with anger.

"Yeah, I don't think your theory is airtight. Plus your theory also contradicts an evidence." said Hellen.

Salim raised an eyebrow, in return Hellen show him her phone.

"Mew livestreamed in her own room from 20:35 to 21:15. In the footage that is on the internet, you can clearly see that the background of the video is Mew's room. She had to have been inside her own room from 20:30 to 23:20. There is no way for her to leave her room after the livestream ended without alerting the unlock lock system."

Klancy walked up to the window and stared while listening to Hellen.

"You're right. She only could have left her room at 23:20. And considering that she met Marian and the others at the main hall at 23 pm, she didn't have any chance to kidnap Hori. Perhaps between 20:05 and 20:30 she had a chance to carry Hori. But that seems like a short amount of time."

"Short time for Mew. Not for Hori." said Fushicin.

"Hate to admit it. But it does raise the possibility of Hori escaping on her own significantly." said Hellen.

"Hey, what the hell is that?" Klancy shouted.

The others turned around to see Klancy sticking his face to the window. They gathered next to Klancy quickly and in response Klancy pointed with his finger. Looking at the direction they all noticed that a gum was attached to the corner side of the window.

Salim quickly ran out of the room. Before long Salim came back in with his briefcase. He opened it and pulled up a glass cutter. Carefully Salim began cutting the glass.After he was done, he pulled out the circular glass with the gum on top. Salim grabbed the gum with his glovy hand and pulled out an extremely small glass like square."

"That's a microscopic camera." said Klancy.

Picture of the micro camera:

"A camera you say?" asked Mew.

"It's a damn obscure camera used in medical operations. Connects wirelessly to the host and displays what it's perceiving through the glass like lenses." said Klancy.

"How long has this been here? Mew did you notice this gum before?" asked Hellen frantically.

"No, this is the first time I ever seen this." said Mew

"Do you remember looking at the exact location where the gum was? Using your testimony we could deduce when this camera was placed." said Hellen.

"I'm sorry I don't remember anything." said Mew while shaking her head.

She then added "I don't usually look out through the window and I doubt any of my other family member looks out through this window too."

"That's bad. It means we can't know who placed this on the window. At least it should be one of the people who regularly visit this mansion right?" said Fushichin.

"Probably, but Jack, Joseph, Nile, George also regularly visited this mansion too. They were at the mansion during the day of the murder but even before then they visited." said Mew.

"That makes things very difficult." said Salim.

"But that was helpful. Now we do know that people other than Hori and Mew knew about this hole." said Fushichin.
