Tuesday, November 16, 1918,

A new 16-year-old student followed her older brother, a teacher who was transferred to Saint-Pierre Academy, for the unique purpose of keeping her by his side. So she decided to leave her old school in England and to continue her studies at this boarding school. As soon as she entered the classroom, everyone's eyes were on her, obviously because of her beauty. When the professor asked her to introduce herself, she bowed:

"My name is Lila, Lila Lamperrouge. I am from London and I am delighted to be with you today!"

She walked in an upright posture along the row to sit at the back of the class. The professor then designated a boy to show her around the academy, and to communicate to her the writings of past courses. It is Erwin Ashford, the best student of the establishment, and the most popular among the female gender ...

After class, Erwin came to Lila to show her around the school, as planned, but she insisted to go to the library.

There, in addition to the school newspaper, she took 13 books of all kinds; she was immersed in her readings. For hours, she only read with a pretty little smile. Suddenly, she changed her expression completely, when she started to read the front page of the newspaper.

"William ti Franciss, a senior high school student, is missing. He appears to be the sixth victim this week. The Police says that they are holding the matter, and everything will be resolved as soon as possible. "

It was then that Lila's eyes began to shine, and her body to tremble, neither of fear nor of anger: she trembled with excitement! What, who, why, how?

Many questions crossed the mind of this young girl, her curiosity took over.

And yes !

She decided to conduct her own little investigation in order to satisfy her personal desires. In addition, despite taking charge of the police, there is a risk of complications: after all, the latter is not competent enough.

She has every chance on her side, so she intends to face it.

Thursday November 26, 1918.

Lila has been at the Academy for ten days, but she still has no friends except Erwin. Quite the opposite, because of her way of speaking a little too honest and her frankness, she made many enemies. Although it doesn't make her hot or cold!

During intercours, she often left alone, reading one or two novels in the garden; she read very quickly. Once, there were a few people who had entered her little haven of peace. She went to find another place to read. It was then that she saw, at the other end of the corridor, to the right of the hall, a room that you could barely see. The door was not closed, so she entered without hesitation. It was an empty room, with white painted walls, a table and chair, and a small window. Perfect for reading, isn't it!

The most interesting is to come. There was a kind of strange book on the table, on the cover, was drawn an amazing geometric figure, unheard of! A certain name was engraved there too; the name of John Giver, the author of this book apparently. But it was so old that the ink on the pages faded. Lila leafed through page by page, but nothing! Not a single letter! Everything is gone! So she took it, put it in her bag, and went to class. At the end of the lessons, she hurried to see Erwin in order to inform him about the strange book ...

Meanwhile, Harold Eberth, a classmate of Lila had a problem, a huge problem! ...

Harold is a shy person, who is often harassed, because of his red hair color by jealous people, since he is only a commoner and despite this he managed to enter this nobles academy. He is therefore considered to be a sulfur. That said, his condition did not bother him in the least, especially since he would not allow himself to offend a high-ranking personality, which implies that he did not defend himself. It was then that the requests of these rascals became increasingly difficult to fulfill ... One day, the latter asked him to crossdress and run around the Institute while dancing, on the pretext that they were bored to death and therefore needed a distraction. Knowing that such an act could lead to a final dismissal, even a prison sentence, Harold refused this request. It was shocking for them, rich heirs, refused by a poor beggar. Loki Klimt said to him:

"- Just who do you think you are, poor clown? Things like you are in this world for only one reason: to provide for the needs of higher beings. And you, you refuse to obey me. What a joke?

- I would rather die still than lose my dignity for such a stupid favor, and then your servant forbids you to call him "thing", it is ignoble but I expect nothing less from you! "

He was punched in the face, and fought one against four. Lila, who was a passenger, saw the criminal and inhuman act of which Harold was a victim, and went to his rescue. "Stop," Loki stopped. The person before him was none other than one of the most important people in the establishment, without forgetting the fact that she is of royal British blood:

"- What's going on here?

- Nothing, ... but what is our princess doing here?

- Oh, me. I'm here to join my friend. You just called him inferior, right?

- Hein? What? ... I ..

- You what? Going back to your so-called rule, we have to respect the hierarchy where I am more important than you, hence the fact that my friend here is in turn. You understand ?

- Yes, I ... I understand.

- Very good then, good day. "

She took Harold by the hand and led him away, adding,

"The next time you're in a pinch, don't hesitate to ask me for help."

He felt a twinge in the heart, it felt a little weird.

Here she is in class, she waited for everyone to go out in order to get to the heart of the matter. She sat down, took the book and said: "- I found this little treasure, there is nothing written except the name of the author.

- You want to talk about this old thing? It's nothing extraordinary, you know?

- Thank you. In any case, I find this exciting. There must be hidden secrets.

- Seriously, can you hear yourself talking? "

He put his hand on the table, and knocked over the inkwell that was on it. The first page of the book was soiled, however, they noticed a white writing on it. It was written :

"One step closer to discovering the evil spirit that I am,

One step to free the strangers who have entered my world,

Curiosity, chance, puzzlement, luck, and mischief,

With, you will find me, without, you will sink!

In order to find, solve the puzzles carefully, Good luck on your quest, you will need it. "

Erwin gasped, while Lila laughed grimly; she is more and more curious, and now has a track to undertake in order to identify the culprit.
