Question

One lazy summer night, Y-san, PG, Phaze and Sinistral were all sitting around a table in a dormitory at Redrum University, playing a game of BANG!, one of the best games ever invented. Across the courtyard was the Ethics Building, which was empty and had been for quite a while. The buildings around the courtyard were all connected in a square, and in the middle of the courtyard was a pond. The buildings all had windows facing both into and out of the square.

After Phaze had been put in jail for the seventh time in a row (gotta love the perma-jail character ;P), he glanced out across the courtyard and gave a startled cry.

This brought Y-san, who was gleefully on a roll as Suzy Lafayette with the Volcanic, back to reality, and she and the others looked outside to see what Phaze had seen. Through the window of a lighted classroom, they could see Dawh tied up and gagged. A cloaked figure walking towards Dawh with a dagger raised high. The figure plunged the dagger down into Dawh's chest and blood spurted out everywhere.

"OmG!" Phaze exclaimed "@@@@@@@@@@!"

The rest of them went running down the north hall to the end of the hallway, where they turned right and ran down the east hall and finally they made another right and ran down the south hall to where the classroom had been. They were running at top speed so this took them approximately five minutes. As they had been running down the east hall, they saw TC, who had gotten out of Juvenile Detention and was serving his community service hours, sweeping the hallway. Seeing them running, he followed them to the south hall and the classroom.

Sinistral tried the door, but it was locked. They pounded on the door of the classroom, but there was no answer. TC used the key he had been given for cleaning purposes to unlock the door. Going inside, they saw that in the middle of the classroom there was a sliding paneled wall that was currently pulled out, separating the door half of the room from the window half of the room. TC went up to the sliding panels and slid them in, revealing the window half of the room and...nothing?

"But I was sure I saw it..." PG said. Everyone else agreed. Yet the evidence was clear. There was no Dawh (dead or alive), no masked figure, no blood. There was no way the murderer could have moved the body and cleaned up and escaped in the five minutes it took them to run there.

Admitting that the beverages they had been having while playing their game may have influenced their perceptions, PG, Phaze, and Sinistral walked out of the classroom, confused. Y-san hung back. After a few moments, she joined her compatriots in the hallway.

TC yawned and said "Well, my work's done for the night, I'd better get going..."

"Not so fast," Y-san told him. "The only place you're going is back to Juvie. You just committed another murder, and we're all witnesses."

How did he do it? :D

Oh I'm sorry I wasn't meaning it like that Kathleen!

^_^ I wouldn't say anything bad about you and I would definitely never offer to murder you! :o

:blush:

Ok, I want to know what I'm missing in this puzzle! There's the time problem...which is stumping me and it doesn't look like we're heading in any direction with this...especially since we have two (and a half if you count the murderer) working on it. HINTS PLEASE :D

First off... WHERE AM I? have i not made enough posts to be included in murder story's? :angry:

JK :P no but seroisly... where am i ... at the bottom of the pond?

here is my guess

TC used 2 mirrors... here is a diagram


________
mirror 2 | |
killing| |mirror
|_______|

so TC was i a diffrent classroom on the same floor... but reflected it off of a mirror on the other sid of the courtyard... which reflected of of the classroom that y-san saw it in... so all TC had to do was move the mirror

Lol...it's not your posts...it's the fact that you're too young to be at Redrum University, sorry :P

And you're answer's close...but you're missing something...

Why would he use mirrors? Why would you want witnesses, and then make it so that the body is not where they saw it? Maybe it's too late and I'm too tired, but I don't get it.

So when the dead body was actually found, he would have an alibi...i.e., he couldn't have cleaned up the room and moved the body in the time it took them to go to the classroom.

Wow I'm good nobody can figure out how I killed him.

Not even me! Lol

Are you saying you "subconciously" killed him, meaning you don't know how you did it? You just did? That makes you even MORE of a psyco serial killer! :o:o:o:o:o

Y-san, can I ask one question?

Why you, PG and others have to run north-east-south to the room that just on the east way of where you were? Isn't that there are links between these 4 blocks? :huh:

No, the buildings are around a square, and there's a pond in the middle and PG and I can't run across water ;P

Lol I think that's a pretty screwed up college...

Just a square with a pond? I'm glad I don't attend and just kill people "subconsciously as Kat calls it" instead of doing my janitorial duties...
