Having deserted the body in what he told me was his normal spot, Dr. Burress drove me back to my apartment. To my surprise, he asked me a simple question upon pulling up to my building.
"Can I come inside?" he asked bluntly.
"You want to come in? You, my professor — the one who grades my papers and judges me according to my ability — want to come inside my empty apartment?"
"Sure, I'd like to see your place. Besides, once you've murdered with someone, what else is there to hide?"
Disgusted by his response while convicted by his argument, I agreed to have him join me. The police had cleaned up the scene he created by murdering Lexi and to be honest, the idea of being alone in my apartment with a much older man didn't sound terrible either.
