Give weak women a heart of steel

Chapter 18 The Second Dead

The street is long, and the closer to home, the slower Hinazuki Kana's speed becomes.

But in the end, we arrived at the door of our house.

The windows that were originally covered by curtains were now wide open.

A human face was flat against it, and Hinazuki Kana's amber eyes couldn't help but lower their eyes, avoiding that human face.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

His steps were hasty and he stepped heavily on the floor.

As if she were an evil ghost, the girl couldn't help but turn her head and look at Xia Tingfei behind her.

Her amber eyes were sparkling, and there was a pleading in them that the girl herself was not aware of.

Xia Tingfei stood far away and just turned around and left.

Very neat.

Like a stranger.

Hinazuki Kana withdrew her gaze and looked at her palms.

"Ga...Nai!!!"

The evil ghost roared so loudly that Xia Tingfei quickened his pace.

He didn't want to hear, let alone see what would happen next.

Hinazuki Kana curled up and fell to the ground.

"It would be great if my relatives were like Granny Nishimiya."

"That way, I will definitely be very happy."

The more I think about it, the more painful it becomes.

"No, I have to be patient, I have to be patient."

"As long as you keep at it, as long as high school is over, you'll be fine."

"But what's going on, why am I crying, why am I crying."

"what--!"

The girl's voice was shrill and sad, and her tears were flowing.

"Damn!"

The disheveled Hinazuki Akemi scolded her and carried her to the kitchen.

He opened the refrigerator and poured all the frozen ice cubes into the sink, which had already been filled with water.

The girl was pressed inside, and the swelling on her face gradually subsided in the ice water.

Her amber eyes were gray.

"Be obedient! Kana!"

"I'm working very hard!"

Hinazuki Akemi roared like an evil ghost.

After what seemed like a long, long time, Hinazuki Akemi finally stopped.

She sat paralyzed on the sofa, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table with her withered fingers, and lit it.

There were piles of beer bottles on the table and cigarette ashes everywhere.

Hinazuki Kana stood next to the pool and raised her head.

The dripping ice water touched her cheeks, and her hair fell to the floor.

Like a water ghost.

Her face was uncontrollably pale, and her sense of frailty was so strong and so pitiable.

The girl staggeredly picked up her schoolbag from the corner and stumbled into her room.

The cell phone in my schoolbag kept vibrating like a noisy fly.

Throwing herself on the bed, she took out her phone and looked at it.

[Letter from Xia Tingfei]

[Repaying evil with kindness, how to repay kindness? 】

There was only this sentence in the email. Hinazuki Kana looked at it and threw the phone aside.

Xia Tingfei waited for a long time, but didn't get a reply from Hinazuki Kana, so he couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"This Hinazuki Kana is not pure enough."

As he thought, he returned to his home.

At night, there were suddenly more security guards patrolling the streets.They drove over and over again.Red and blue lights shine in this area.

Probably because of the poverty here, whether it is the hiding place of the murderer or the place where the murderer may appear.The odds are good here.

The security guards take this place very seriously.

For Xia Tingfei, this was a mixed blessing.

The good thing is, the possibility of a [Predator] attacking here today is very small.

The bad thing is that the probability of Xia Tingfei seeing the [Predator] with his own eyes has also become smaller.

But Xia Tingfei did not relax his vigilance because of this. As usual, he closed all the doors and windows tightly and inserted the anti-theft chain.

In the middle of the night, the security guards on patrol were also a little tired.

A man wearing a black raincoat and unmarked rain boots appeared at the door of Xia Tingfei's house. He looked at Xia Tingfei's appearance, which was no different from usual, and then quietly left.

However, it does not mean giving up and going home.

Instead, he went to another area and found a house-to-house building.

There are no cameras or street lights in front of the family's door.

A dark scene.

Stepping on the snow, the man entered the house.

The snow became heavier and heavier and did not stop until the next morning.

Nakane Ryuji was sleeping in the office. He had no rest last night and had been sorting out all the news about Oka Shinji.

Holding the forensic examination report in his hand.

"There were no binding injuries or any other injuries on the victim's body. However, there were signs that the body had been moved."

"And the victim's cause of death was indeed death from hypothermia."

Nakane Ryuji took the inspection report and sighed: "What the hell is going on."

"Buzzing~~~"

The black mobile phone on the table kept vibrating, and Nakane Ryuji was holding it.

"Hello? This is Nakane Ryuji."

"Nakane-senpai!"

"This seems to be my junior?"

Ryuji Nakane thought for a moment, but before he could speak, the person opposite shouted: "Senior Nakane, someone else died?"

"what?"

"And the deceased still died of hypothermia." The junior said.

This news is very serious, which means that Nakane Ryuji's guess is correct.

"Sure enough, there is a serial murderer hunting here!"

"but!"

Nakane Ryuji was shocked: "It's only been a day!"

"Is it Senzhu District? Or is it a student of Mikoto Academy?"

"He is still in Senzhu District, but he is not at Mikoto Academy. He is a boy from another high school." The junior said this, and Nakane Ryuji was extremely disappointed.

He wrote and drew in his notebook, lowering the suspicion level of some people in Mikoto Academy by one level.

"What about the family?"

"The family members are not at home, but on business trips, both parents."

"Hey." Nakane Ryuji sighed: "Another death from such a family."

The same is true for Nakaoka Shinji. His parents left him long ago.The remaining Shinji Oka is living with his grandmother, which also makes him lonely and dark, with no friends.

And the same is true for the person who is now dead.

His parents are also on business trips all year round, and they don’t even have a grandma!

"Does the murderer rely on such standards to find prey?"

Nakane Ryuji was so suspicious, but he was not sure.

"Where is the location?"

"Nakajima-senpai, I sent it to you via line."

Nakane Ryuji glanced at the location and hurried downstairs.

He wanted to see what happened to the deceased and what his condition was.

"This is already the second one. If this continues, the existence of this serial killer will almost be made public, and it will definitely cause panic."

Nakane Ryuji had a headache when he thought about this.
