Souvenirs Of Mansion
CHAPTER NO. 5
THE DEAD BODY
9:12 AM

[Aislinn was having a cup of coffee while organizing her thoughts Rebecca was dusting the
shelves when suddenly something came on her mind and her facial expressions changed]

Young lady!

Yes Rebecca

I was wandering that did you find the things you were looking for in your car I mean that this
morning you were quite upset about your car keys.

I was upset but, didn’t mention about finding any things Rebecca.
I was just looking for my luggage that’s all.

I’m sorry young lady I went overboard.

It’s fine but I do want to ask you that why my car was punctured. I don’t remember it being. Have you got any idea?

No, young lady your car was punctured when you arrived here. That’s why you asked us for your
help but due to your drunken state we thought you should take rest then we’ll fix your car I think
you don’t seem to remember it clearly.

Rebecca one more thing what exactly happened to the guest. What’s his name? Why was he
here? I mean this is not a hotel. Was he just a passer-by like me? Or was he some kind of staying
here for a reason?

Young lady you seem so curious about that guest. His name was Matthew. He was doing some
kind of research here that’s why he was staying here for a week. He died before he could research any further.

Now please excuse me young lady I have to prepare the lunch for today.

[Rebecca left with some worries on her face like she not wanted to be interrogated any more by
Aislinn.]

Research. But on what? I think I should ask Andrew for further questions he might be able to
answer me and if not, then something is definitely not right here in this mansion.

He might be in his room I should check upstairs.

[Aislinn knocks at the door. No answer came she again tries with more force this time still no
answer she slightly opens the opens the door and enters the room.]

No one is here I wonder where he is. His room is clean except his desk looks like he enjoys
doing some desk work I hope he doesn’t mind me while I go through his notes.

[while Aislinn was going through his notes she found something unique on his desk then
suddenly Andrew came in with an angry expression.]

My lady I think it is not so polite of you to check my things without my permission. Please leave
my room I’m not feeling too much good to talk about something I want to be alone. And please
don’t do this again I don’t like it when someone goes through my stuff.

What is wrong with his mood. He is right though I was checking his stuff without his permission.

Luckily, I hid this thing that I found on his desk right at the moment when he came in I wonder .
why this was on his desk it’s not a man thing it’s a necklace that belongs to a woman I don’t
think he is married and he doesn’t have a sister too then whom this belongs to? His mother
maybe? Or to someone who is not welcomed here anymore.

I think I can’t ask any further questions to anyone here I better find all the answers by myself.

Oh, the pills I should compare them with the one’s I’ll find in the kitchen.

[Aislinn goes to the kitchen fortunately there is no one in there]

The First Aid Kit box might be in some cabins here. Found it I should take it in my room the
kitchen is not so safe.

There are bandages, painkillers, anti-depressants, Aspirin pills. Hmm aspirin pills are about the
same size of this pill and the pack is missing one of the pill.

If, it’s not a coincidence then the
missing pill might be one that I found in Matthews room.

But if its really aspirin then the story described by Thomas not makes sense because aspirin is
not a pill that should be taken by a heart patient. And those marks were like of injections.

Matthew could not have possibly injected himself in the neck. What if he was murdered??

A murder in the mansion? But who could have done this wicked thing. This can’t be real. What
could be the motive to kill?

Maybe this is somehow related to his research. I should first find out what the research was about
as soon as possible.
