The Corpse Statue of L Street Part II

Note: This is the chapter that Sirius had pass

For the people who idolized her, she was the most beautiful and kind woman in their eyes. Her name was Liberty Manaligan, a famous model and actress of the L City. In the camera, she was kind, friendly and down to earth person but when off the cam, she was opposite; a narcissist, manipulator and insensitive person, even the manager or the owner of the talent agency that holds him has no objection when it's his turn to speak. Just one shout from him to his staff, everyone is immediately afraid and doesn't have the courage to fight because the moment they do that, they will be fired. "Didn't I tell you there was no cucumber? Who ordered it?!" Liberty yelled hostilely at her staff, they are currently on lunch break on the set of the actress' new series and she suddenly craved hamburger so she ordered to order it and when she got there there was cucumber so she was very angry especially since he doesn't like it. His staff bowed their heads as none of them wanted to admit it.

"Liberty, what happened here?" asked the manager when he arrived at the set, because someone called him that his pet was disappearing again. "Tell your staff, it's a simple order they haven't been able to do yet." he said then threw the hamburger she was holding on the floor because she lost his appetite, the manager sighed then looked at the gathered staff. "Whoever did this, I am giving you the opportunity to leave my office, I promise I will not be fired, I just want to know why he did it." the manager said, everyone understood this except for Liberty who wanted revenge so until the next day she had them watch over who would confess to her manager.

The next day she caught one of her stylists breaking into her manager's office, he immediately ran to the door and opened it a little so he could hear what they were talking about. "What are you going to tell me, Michelle?" asked the manager and called the stylist by his real name. "I ordered her food, yesterday." the woman admitted making the manager's eyes widen. "Why? You've been with him for how many years and you've memorized what he likes, how did you do that?" the stylist just laughed, "That's why, I've been holding back on that attitude for a long time, mind you." She just hated every time the actress insulted her because she needed money, once again Liberty raised her hand and when the actress finally hit her, she couldn't take it anymore, that's when she realized that she needed it. will resign but first she will take revenge and what happened yesterday is just the beginning but she is already satisfied.

"I understand," said the manager, even though he also tolerated Liberty's behavior but there was nothing they could do because the actress was the one who grew so that what she wanted was what she would follow. "Is that all you're going to say?" he asked the stylist again and she dropped an envelope. "Before you fire me, I will resign myself." she said, "Someone offered me a high salary and it was right for my brother's treatment, so this is my decision." the stylist explained, the manager had accepted it and wished that her stylist's new job would go well. Before they even finished talking, Liberty left with a clenched fist, now she knows who is at fault so she should pay for it, right? She leaned against the elevator to wait for her former stylist, when she saw her, she immediately grabbed the woman's hair, "Miss Liberty! I'm going to let go of my hair," the stylist begged but the actress tightened her grip even more. "Did you think I wouldn't know? I considered you a friend and then you do this to me!"

Liberty continued to pull the stylist and the woman resisted until suddenly the actress hit the stylist's head against the wall and did not even notice that there was a nail sticking out of it causing the stylist's head to be pierced and then lost consciousness , Liberty realized what happened so she immediately let go of the stylist. "Mich, are you okay?" he asked weakly then shook the woman's body but she didn't move instead the blood gradually spread on the floor and there was still a trace on the wall, no doubt Liberty stood up then ran away from the company to hide in her condo. Unbeknownst to her, someone witnessed what she did and informed the police about what happened.

"Why won't you help me?" Liberty asked her manager while they talked on the phone, currently the actress is hiding from the police so she called a telephone booth near L River. she heard the manager sigh on the other line, "Liberty, listen. You can't escape what you've done, especially since you've already killed someone." The stylist was dead on arrival when he was rushed to the hospital, his family immediately filed a lawsuit against the actress and her image was even more damaged because there were many issues about her, even the employees of the agency that held her released the she stinks so even her fans have disappeared. Her dramas and endorsements are the same, she has also been removed, the agency has no choice but to terminate his exclusive contract. Liberty angrily put the telephone back on its place, she doesn't know where to go where no one knows her so she is out of her senses while walking on the road suddenly someone grabs her and she loses consciousness the next day she is a tough statue in the middle of L street.

Julius Park flipping the pages of his recent reports, he had been reading them over and over again and was hoping to see loopholes but there were none. He has two murder cases to report now, first to Marina Santiago; was killed two days ago in an alley near Sirius's apartment and the initial report was robbery as the reason based on the missing things of the nurse and the next one was that of Edelita Corazon, an actress who has passed away and has a future case against her stylist who assaulted by her and eventually her lost fans. They suspected that she was killed last night and then buried to become a statue before being placed in the middle of L street, no one even noticed because whole L City suddenly blacked out last night and it was found only in the morning.

He frowned because he knew them both, they reminded him of his high school life because Marina Santiago was one of his classmates and was also called her survivor while Edelita Corazon was one of the famous student of their academy. The two were also close with Sirius because they were part of a club about arts and literature, he remembered that time Edelita liked his friend but Sirius was more focused on his studies because his goal was to enter L university. He stopped reading a part of the report, "Both of them have a cloud mark on their glasses so it is suspected that their murders are connected?" after seeing the photo of the mark being left behind on the victims' body, Julius didn't waste a time and called his friend to answer his question.
