Chapter 18: Provoking the killer

Suyang stopped the car in front of the entrance of the hospital to let me off. From inside, he said to me, “I’m going to find a parking spot. Give me a moment and wait for me here.”

“No need. You can go home.”

“I feel like you’re kind of abnormal…”

“What?” I placed my hand on top of his car window and teased. “Are you worried about me?”

“Pssh. In your dreams! I’m not worried about you. I’m just worried you’ll go back on your words.” Then, he disappeared from my sight.

Was he just a stubborn duck that refused to admit his concern? I didn’t expect the cold and heartless Suyang to actually have a human side to him. I smirked as I watched Suyang go. Then, I looked up at the sky. It was getting late.

I turned to the huge batch of reporters that were waiting outside of the hospital’s main entrance.

I quietly walked beside a reporter as I raised my voice, “Are you waiting for the police to come out?”

“Yes.” The reporter didn’t even look at me.

“I have news to expose!”

I suddenly yelled on top of my lungs and all the reporters reached their necks over like giraffes to look at me.

I wasn’t sure who called out, “She is the woman from the police station yesterday!”

Three seconds later, the reporters surrounded me like how they did the day before. In an instant, my path was blocked from all sides. But the difference between yesterday and today was this time, I came prepared. I directly faced the reporters and shouted as if I was afraid they wouldn’t be able to hear what I was about to say.

“Hey! Hey! Look over here! Here! I am the 10th victim of the homicidal maniac. At the same time, I’m also a survivor.”

“Stop pushing! No pushing! Stop pushing against me!” The reporters were all trying to shove themselves at me. I was getting irritated. “You can all take turns asking me questions. I will respond one by one! One at a time!” I stepped onto the rim of the flower bed* as I randomly pointed to a person, “Ok. You may start first.”

Hearing Suyang’s words, the warmth I felt momentarily ago immediately disappeared without a trace. I hastily pushed him away and turned around and fan my cheeks to get rid of the blush.

I almost fell for his trap again.

As expected, he cannot be sweet for more than three seconds.

“Annoying goblin, can you say something good?”

Suyang coldly snorted, “My degree of concern is already quite good. Some men won’t even help you call the police.”

I obediently returned home with Suyang. Along the way, I didn’t say a word as I followed behind him.

Around the neighbourhood was a defective streetlamp. It wouldn’t stop flickering and gave off the “It was a moonless night. The killer came and killed.” type of atmosphere. That moment hasn’t come yet, but I was already shivering from fear.
