Mr Killer Next Door

The gunman walked down the stairs slowly while everyone was watching. The bodyguards who failed to get the little master's permission did not dare to move, and could only watch helplessly as the bloody figure approached step by step.

Every time he stepped down a step, the wound twitched.

Not only the body, the pain spread like lightning in the heart, brain and even the injured throat.

Jiang Yu stared at Qiu Shihuan's face, imagining the handwriting behind the canvas irresistibly.

How old was she when she died?Fifteen, or sixteen.

At this age, when she should be returning home from school with a schoolbag on her back, her mother may be shredding carrots and beating eggs, and the smell of curry is coming out from the crack of the door; Maybe lying on the sofa to rest, the TV programs are occasionally news, and occasionally unfinished serials; while her cute and mischievous brother is sitting in front of the TV, crawling around on her father's lap non-stop, being watched by the adults He giggled for a moment.

Obviously, as long as the door is pushed open, she can also be integrated into this happiness.

Jiang Yu's head was hurting like it was about to split open, and it started again—the memories blurred by alcoholism kept flashing back in his mind, but he couldn't remember them at all, those old shadows refused to tell the whole story.

At this moment, Qiu Shihuan, who couldn't wait to step forward, threw himself into his arms.

He suddenly remembered the text behind the seventh painting that had been forcibly engraved.

【Shihuan, he is actually a very spoiled child.Although he is a bit squeamish and has some flaws that I can't tell, I still hope that he will be happy.Sehwan never got love from anyone but me - I had a happy time so I know all too well how important love is to a child. 】

[I hope he can have a family that truly loves him.It doesn't matter if you have everything you should have, or you have nothing.Let me make up for those things that cannot be exchanged by blood. 】

The heart throbbed for no reason.

"...Let's go." Jiang Yu exhaled, put one arm around the boy's waist, and kissed the soft blond hair deeply, "Shihuan, I will take you away."

"Nonsense. Mr. Jiang, you have no right to take my son away. No matter what means you want to use, his material needs will not be met in any way by your side. This is an indisputable fact." Qiu Ang wrinkled Brow, "—so, what qualifications do you have to take the child away from me?"

"Whether you have this right is not up to you." Jiang Yu stared back unwillingly, "I am asking to take the victim away now."

"The victim?" Alfonso on the side seemed to find the situation interesting. He poked the wound on his head, "Brunette, are you a police officer? Great, look at this, take a good look at you What the so-called victim did to the innocent me—”

Jiang Yu looked over coldly: "Stop telling stories here. I know who you are and what the fuck you did."

Looking at the figure that is exactly the same as the photo, looking at the pair of blue eyes that are more sinister and cunning than poisonous snakes.

Jiang Yu bit his lip, and the handwriting on the back of the eighth painting appeared in his mind.

[Mr. Qiu's son threatened me, he was very scary.I think if I didn't listen, he might actually kill my brother, like every girl he killed after that.It wasn't until now that I realized what the new task Mr. Qiu gave me was—he wanted me to dispose of the corpse for his own son and bury the traces of his murder.In exchange, he is willing to give my brother a future. 】

[It's a good deal, I agree.At the moment when I sold my soul to the devil, I was a little scared.I'm terrified that I'm going to hell later, but thankfully, Se-hwan will definitely be in heaven. 】

【So, I cleaned up those girls' corpses for him again and again.These girls were all brought in by a lady called TP Jessie, who I've been in contact with a few times, mostly as clients - she offers them something that I haven't seen personally, but the symptoms and The same thing I've seen on the throats of dead children is probably a hallucinogen that makes them do what they say. 】

[TP Jessie claims that this matter will be safe and there is no worries.She was right, the police were always coming and going, but never entered the garden.I think that since the dead girls were all underage, everyone might think that the murderer was an adult with a short stature or a disability, but children are also a possibility. 】

[But that day... I saw something writhing in the body bag, I didn't think about anything, I just thought that the child might still be alive.So, that's how I unzipped it.Wish she could get some air - why?I don't understand, I should know how Se-hwan will be treated if I make him angry.I watched as she crawled out, desperate to escape. 】

Alfonso smiled instead of anger: "Officer, you must have misunderstood me—you should know who the kid you are hugging now is. The victim? No, no, this sounds too ridiculous. He killed people, he's just a dirty little thing."

He looked as if his hands were bound, the blood on his forehead meandered all the way and slid to the corner of his mouth.

Alfonso rubbed his injured eye with his thumb. He raised a glass of gin and looked at Jiang Yu through the rippling liquor.

【I didn't catch up, I watched her run to the street, I watched her call for help to passers-by, and I watched her disappear at the end of the street.When I turned around consciously, Alfonso was already behind me, with no expression on his face.I feel like I'm done.He will kill me, he will kill me—I thought so, I was so afraid, I even begged him not to hurt my brother. 】

[Sorry, I don't have anyone to talk to.Because he has a heart of stone, he tore my skirt and pushed me down in the grass... It hurts, it hurts unspeakably.He is a born devil, a monster without the slightest conscience.While panting, he whispered about my brother in my ear.Se-hwan seems to be doing well under Mr. Qiu's care.That's enough, this way, no matter what you ask me to do, no matter what you let me go through, it doesn't matter...]

[After the end, Alfonso also left.It took me a long time to get up slowly. My body was covered with grass and bloodstains from being ground by stones.I thought, that blue and swollen face must be very, very ugly when it smiles.But when I think of Sehwan, when I think of my younger brother who has grown up, I can't stop being happy. 】

"Alfonso, shut your mouth." The dark brown eyes widened slightly, sharp as a knife blade, "You don't have the right to speak here yet."

He noticed the familiarity of Alfonso's gaze, the hostility, the blatant arrogance.

Exactly the sight he felt outside the aquarium.

Qiu Shihuan stared at Jiang Yu's resolute attitude for a moment, and in the next moment, he seemed to understand everything.

He buried his head in Jiang Yu's coat, smelling the faint smell of blood on the man's body.

And Jiang Yu hugged him with a bloody arm, with great strength, as if he was afraid that the boy in his arms would be taken away by others.

The dark-haired boy smiled softly.

"That's interesting, officer. Do you really want to shoot me now? It's okay, I understand. Because you, like those people, are born with a lack of vigilance gene and should be eliminated. Only mermaids like you Guys, they will hug each other to keep warm."

"What do you think of yourself?" Jiang Yu stared at him, "Even your life was given by others, and you have survived to this day in exchange for the sacrifices of countless people, so why do you decide other people's lives?" life and death?"

"Look at him, old man." Alfonso smiled in surprise, "How did you invite such a person? I'm very interested in him. And you, fake. I'm curious, how can you Let this kind of person go against us for you?"

Qiu Ang didn't answer him.

The ridicule of his own son is not worth mentioning now.

Because the child who has always been obedient to his words is now extremely stubborn in refusing to cooperate.

In front of his face, he clung to another human being, a mouse that had not been completely eradicated because of a mistake six years ago.

The vicious mouse was about to take his adopted son away, and it was so daring that it wanted to urinate on the floor and the bottom of the wall.

"dad."

A call interrupted the rising anger.

Qiu Ang looked at him, as if he was on Alfonso's side.

"You can't go with him, Shihuan. He will die because of your choice today. If you are obedient, I will consider sparing his life."

"But I don't want to stay at home." The child who only judges by likes and dislikes is very stubborn.

"Why? Dad can give you anything. But what about him—he is not even qualified to answer my questions." Qiu Ang raised his finger to Jiang Yu, who was covered in blood, and his teeth became tighter and tighter. "I can't put my son Give it to this kind of person."

"Dad, I'm not happy at home."

The boy who was watched deeply by his father sighed.

"—so, goodbye."

Suddenly, Qiu Ang felt as if something in his chest was broken.

He stared fiercely at the son he had raised. His child was about to leave him, and he was about to choose someone who could not see the future.

These deformed thoughts spread rapidly through the blood like spider venom, making his heart throb with every breath.

Qiu Ang tore off the tablecloth behind him, and the entire row of wine glasses shattered to the ground in an instant.

Qiu Shihuan was indifferent.

And Jiang Yu held him in one hand, and aimed at Qiu Ang with the other hand, aiming at the man who was about to be ignited by anger.He thought of the words left by the girl again.

Once again, the sores that were almost festering were uncovered.

[The girl who ran away somehow came back to me, and she became a cold corpse. 】

[I saw her dead, her lips were pale, and her pupils were dilated.The hair would fall if pulled, and the body was as pale and terrible as if covered with frost.This is not the result I want, this is not the end of her that I have thought of in my torment.She deserves to be alive, to survive, to be with her family, to enjoy a long trip for me - not to die a miserable death like she is now. 】

[I shouldn't have done this, Mr. Qiu found me and asked me to compensate for all the losses.But I have nothing, and I can't afford to pay for anything. 】

[So, I thought of death. 】

The splashed wine was like a pearl necklace with broken threads, colliding and splashing a large wet stain.

[Alfonso's killing of the girls has been revealed, and all kinds of clues point to Crested Ibis Technology, but I know that Mr. Qiu is already busy with the election, and he definitely doesn't want to make trouble.So, he wanted me to replace Alfonso, he wanted me to confess all the crimes.It is a pity that Mr. Qiu does not trust me. He thinks that I may provide some unfavorable testimony. 】

[After this, he seems to have identified the possibility of "suicide in fear of crime".So Mr. Qiu chose a place for me and asked me to choose a way to die. 】

[Before I die I want a striped skirt from the window, about the knee.I love the suspenders, it makes me look less skinny, it makes me die with dignity.Did I tell you, stranger? ——I want to be a kite, even a small, not so pretty kite.Even if the thread is cut by someone, the little kite will still fly freely in the sky when the wind blows. 】

The fingers gripping the corner of the table gradually tightened.

"Officer Jiang." Qiu Ang whispered, "Today, you don't want to take a step out of here alive."

[Stranger——I'm going to die tomorrow, can you grant me a request? 】

Jiang Yu grabbed Qiu Shihuan's shoulders to protect his chest, and unceremoniously released the safety catch with his fingers.

"I can't ask for it."

[Please be sure, love my brother well. 】
