A new semester has started. The school, life and everything is running smoothly. That is, until trust and tranquillity within the community are shattered by a violent murder.

Windy, rainy, shitty summer, he thought, feeling more than a touch of self-pity. The summer vacation was just about to end and the summer itself had vent by almost unnoticed. (AU)
