Silent-Crimes

Felix

Once we reached our dorm room, I could see two beds in front and one to the left of the door, while on the right were three wardrobes and in the middle of the room were study tables. 

I took the bed and Ace took the one beside mine,"Are you sure about this?" I asked, he looked straight at me,"Do you believe he was this weak? That he will suicide?" I looked away, where was the lie? He wasn't this weak that he will suicide. "N0," "Then," "How will you even do this?" "I have no idea." I looked at him, "Are you fucking serious? You are here with no plan?" He nodded. 

"Well, I do have Leo's phone, maybe that can help us find the contacts and all, you know." He said as he got up and removed Leo's phone and sat beside me on my bed. 

"Hey? Are you telling me we have to look through all of these 30 contacts?" He nodded, this is going to be tiring… 

We were looking through the contacts when the door opened revealing the person who will stay with us, I saw Ace quickly hiding the book.

"Hi, Roommate." I said as I looked at the new boy, who just entered, he was the same height as Ace, "Hey." He said with a smile, "I am Felix." I said, "I am Finn," He said then his eyes landed on Ace who was going through his stuff, "He is Ace," I added, he nodded, "Sorry I was just little focused on my stuff," Ace said looking at Finn, he nodded.

"Do you have any siblings here?" I asked, he nodded, "Yes, I have my older sister, Nami here." Nami? Damn she was one of the people in the contact. 

"And you all?" He asked, we both shook, he nodded. We all settled down, I was sitting on my desk, I would do anything to help him. He is my best friend. Suddenly my phone rang, it was Amy, I picked up, "What's up?" "Can you come down?" "Right now?" "Yes." "Okay." 

I grabbed my jacket, it's still so cold even in the february. I walked down stairs, I saw her leaning against The Pillar near the entrance. "So, Amy?" I looked at her, she looked at me, "Look even though Ace did get his autism in control we still have to be careful, you understand?" "I know you are worried about him. Don't worry. We will both work together to keep him in check and also find Leo's culprit." She nodded. 

"What are you both discussing?" We turned around and saw Mrs Luna Hegel, "Oh Mrs Hegel." We both bow to him, she smiled. "It's okay, lovely kids." She said, "If you want a tour around, please assemble in the hall in the evening, and also at night we will have the freshmen's party and welcome party for your seniors." "Sure, Mrs Hegel." We both smiled. 

"Also, do you both have a phone?" She asked, we both nodded. "Here let me add you to group chat." I gave her mine, Amy and Ace's number. "Is Ace your friend?" She asked, "Yeah, he is my friend and her twin brother." I said, "But, you both don't look like each other." "We are Dizygotic twins." She said to Mrs Hegel, she smiled and nodded. "I heard that he has some disorder." 

"He is suffering from Autism." "Must be hard for him." "It was, now he has very good control on it." I said, "By the way, I am sorry for your loss." She said, we both nodded. "Leo was a pretty kind and loving human being. He always used to help me with all my work." She said, "Also, you both if you ever feel like Ace needs help, I hope he never needs it, but still if he ever does need it. We have a personal doctor, he is quite talented and the youngest doctor here, his name is Abyss." She said she is very considerate. It's good to see it. "Thank you," Amy said, we both bowed to her and she nodded and left. 

Mrs Luna Hegel, 43 years old. English Teacher. A considerate human and very kind to us. She has short hair, and always prefers dressing casually. Mr Abyss Anderson, 22 years old. A Doctor, non-teaching staff. A Cold and distant but a very talented figure. 

I feel like I am really going to turn to an analyst, to find your culprit Big'B. I looked up at the sky and smiled. I used to analyze anything, but look at me doing everything for you. 

"Okay, go back to your room, Amy, and call me if you need anything." I said, she nodded and turned around to leave. I waited till I saw her figure completely vanish. Just to make sure she is fine. 

I turned around and started walking back towards my dorm. 

I was walking when I suddenly ran into a male, "I am sorry." I took a quick glance at his face, a cold and unbothered-distant look, he nodded slightly and walked away. Cold and Rude I see. 

I reached back to the dorm, Ace was asleep on his bed, Must be tired. Sleep well. I saw Finn was on his bed. He was on his laptop with his headphones on. As soon as he felt my presence he looked up and smiled, "Welcome back," he said, I nodded and smiled back, "Felix, can I ask you something, you can definitely say no to answer it." "Ask," "You both are not here for studies right?" My eyes widened, how the heck did he even guess it? "I am right," he said, shit shit shit, Ace will kill me. "Don't worry, it's because I have done Psychology course and I even know Ace has Autism by his behavior I guessed it. Also don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

He has a positive aura, it doesn't make sense but he can even bring death to life with the aura he has, "Also you can tell me with time, don't need to tell me, right away." He said, such a good guy. "Anyways, Finn if you want to look around the school Mrs Hegel said to be there in the evening near 5." "I'll go with you." He said with a smile, I nodded. 

Evening has arrived. Ace, Finn and I went out together. I did have my phone open, I am going to note each and everything about this area. At the end of the main school building was the great hall. We reached there and saw Amy was already there. She seemed to have made friends already. 

We didn't have to bother her to be very honest, so we stuck to each other instead. While we were looking around the hall, suddenly all the teachers walked in. They all made their way to the stage and Mr Damien Crimson, our principal, came forward to speak, "Good Evening, Student. It's nice to have you all here. I would like to introduce you to all our staff." He said with a smile. 

 "First comes Mr Lucas Hegel, he is our vice principal as well as your history teacher. Then besides him his wife Mrs Hegel, She is your english teacher. Mr Kai, your science teacher. Mr Liam, your Maths teacher. Abyss our youngest and intelligent doctor. Neo is his assistant. Nami and the team are the helpers of the school." He said with a warm smile.

"Mr Kai, please escort your class and help them know the campus more." Mr Damien added. Oh man, that means he will be our homeroom teacher. He looks the scariest one. His serin black eyes, I mean from far away all eyes look the same. Anyway, his formal attire also has well set hair. Quite handsome. Shia! Felix what are you thinking-? 

Anyway moving on, I saw him moving towards our class, we were in total 25 students and we were together in 1st year, class 2nd. Amy was in the same class as us. 

"I am Kai Smiths, I am 24 years old. Hope you behave well." He said with a distant voice. We all nodded, "Follow me, I'll make you familiar with your surroundings and show you, your classroom." We all followed him around and went along with him, "This is the library. Alongside the library is the musical and dance practice room." There were doors connecting the Library and the musical room. We walked towards the main entrance of the room and walked out. 

We reached in front of our class, "Come on, in. I'll give you your places." He said, everyone sighs. "If any of you have any trouble you can leave." He added walking in.

I got my seat in the last row on the second last bench near the window. "There might be some belongings of your seniors, you can either return it to them or just throw it away." He added. Belongings of seniors? Wait, does that mean Leo would also have some of his belongings in his class? 

Ace was sitting right ahead of me, I patted his back, "Hey, do you remember in which class Big' B was studying in?" "Leo? He was studying in- wait- why can't I remember it..?" Ace seems conflicted, Episodic memory: People with autism may have difficulty recalling episodic memories, especially when asked open-ended questions. 

It is a normal symptom for him to forget things as autistic but he never really forgot before until now. In the afternoon also he was having a hard time recognizing faces because he hadn't seen Leo in a while. What is happening with you Ace? Since he got his autism in control this is happening. He is putting so much pressure on his mind that his mind is not able to grab onto old memories. I have to tell Amy about this, but she is currently sitting across the room. 

I suddenly felt someone hitting my arm, "Felix, stop thinking. Look at him." It was Finn, my eyes flatter towards his fingers were pointing and it was Ace he was panicking, and I know why. "Ace! Ace calm down, It's okay." "No! No no! I can't remember his class, not his face! No! How can this happen!" His mind was still a lot in his control because he didn't yell it out. He was just whispering. 

"Ace, look at me." I said, "You are fine. Don't pressure yourself. Breath in. Breath out." He followed my instructions and calmed down a little, "Ahh, you guys, I know I don't look trust-worthy but you can trust me and tell me your motives. I promise I just want to help." "Why do you want to help us?" Ace asked his eyes were flattering around, his mind was overloading. 

"Look, I just want to help you guys. I also want to prove to my family and so-called friends that I am not useless. So you help me in return I help you. This was my motive at first, but just like now what I saw I feel like I would help you anyway. You like it or not." He said, "Finn, this is dangerous, you know it right?" "I love danger. And you are my friends." 

He does seem trust-worthy to me, I looked at Ace, he nodded. "Okay, then." I said as I smiled. "If you three are done chattering, head back to your dorms and get ready for the freshmen's party." Mr Kai was still here? Did he hear us? I don't think so. If he would have then he would have said something about it. 

I helped Ace to get back to the dorm and Finn just followed us. Once we were in the dorm, Ace went to take a shower. It helped him to calm down. Water helps him to calm down. Finn turned towards me, "What did you ask that made him panic?" He asked me, "I just asked him about Leo's class, but I should have known about it. The person who didn't even remember the face clearly will not remember that." 

He chuckles at my statement, "You are wrong about him." I was about to ask him and suddenly Ace walked out, "I remembered it." He said, "Remember what?" I asked, "His class, he was in 3rd year, class 1." My eyes widened as I looked at Finn, since he seems to know alot about this situation. 

"What?" he asked, "Explain to me." I said, "Well, it is simple, when you suddenly ask him a question, whose answer he had barely heard once or twice, he might not remember it immediately but he will remember it definitely. His brain works faster than ours. Also even though he didn't remember his brother's face, he will remember every detail that is related to him, like his behavior, habits, likes and dislikes. That's how his brain works." He said as he removed the clothes he was going to wear and smiled at me. He surely would be helpful, he is observative.
