Come With Me

Chapter 197 I Was In Danger

When I followed her out, Xenia had already gone out, and the food on the table was still hot. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

I called Xenia two times, but she didn't answer the phone.

It was getting late and Xenia didn't come back. It was not her style. I couldn't help but worry about her.

I remembered it was about nine o'clock at night when I suddenly received a message from a strange number. "Your friend drank too much in the Lego. I found your phone number in her phone. I wonder if you can come to pick her up."

At that time, Xenia came into my mind. Out of concern for her, I knew that she was not in a good mood these days because of the matter between me and Vann, so I didn't think too much and quickly changed my clothes.

In order to avoid the reporters and avoid making trouble for myself at this time, I deliberately disguised myself and hurried out of the door.

When I arrived at the gate of the community, I thought it would be difficult to get a taxi. I wondered if it would take me a long time to get a taxi.

But a car stopped beside me. The man accosted me, "Miss, do you need a car?"

I saw that the car in front of me was not a taxi, so I was a little hesitant. But that person quickly explained to me, "It's my second job to do some private work and earn some money. I just sent a guest here and then I saw you come out of the community. So I wonder if you need a car to send you somewhere or not."

While saying this, the driver pointed at the phone hanging inside the car, on which there was a software for receiving orders.

I kind of believed him. The man then pointed at the mask on his face and said, "Don't worry. I'm not a bad guy. I just caught a cold and wore it because I was afraid of infecting the guests. Don't you think so? You also wear a mask yourself."

At that time, I was also thinking about Xenia. When I looked up, I didn't see any taxi, so I got in the car. "Send me to the Lego, thank you."

"Okay. It's usually thirty dollars from here to the Lego. But today I'll only charge you twenty dollars."

"Thank you."

The man looked at me from the rearview mirror and said with a smile, "It's my pleasure. If you don't spend much time at the Lego, I can wait for you and take you back to your community again."

After thinking for a while, I said, "I'm going to pick up a friend in the Lego. I will come out soon. If you're not busy, you can wait for me for a while. You don't need to give me a discount. I will give you thirty dollars."

"I know people like you who can live in this kind of neighborhood are rich ones. In fact, I didn't expect that I would be so lucky today that I can send another guest to somewhere before coming back home."

The driver just chatted with me casually, but after a while, we hadn't arrived at the Lego, so I looked out of the window.

Logically speaking, even if we didn't arrive at the Lego at the moment, we should enter the bustling section. But it was dark outside, and even the street lights were rarely seen.

At that time, a trace of vigilance arose in my heart. "It seems that this is not the way to the Lego, right?" I asked the driver.

The driver still comforted me with a smile, "Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person. I'll take a detour to pick up my daughter first. Today is her birthday. I promised her to buy her a birthday cake. It won't take much time."

The driver then continued, "We are not rich. Not everyone can live in such a good community like you. I don't have the ability to earn much money, so I can only take the child to live in such a remote place."

I looked outside again and found that there was indeed some dim light. It looked like a cottage area at the edge of the city.

After a while, the car stopped in front of a gate. The driver got out of the car and pointed at the gate. "I'll go in to pick up my daughter. Would you like to come out of the car with me to see my house?"

I waved my hand politely and said, "No, thanks. Please hurry up. My friend is waiting for me."

I thought the driver would go in by himself after I refused him. But he opened the back door and pulled me out of the car with great strength. "Let's go in and have a look. Let's go!"

His sudden impolite behavior scared me. I tried hard to withdraw my arm and said nervously, "I really won't go in. Please hurry up."

However, the man's face suddenly turned cold, and his eyes were not as kind as before. He said to me fiercely, "Don't you want to see whether your friend is alive or dead in there?"

My mind suddenly became chaotic, and my fear and worry about Xenia's safety quickly spread all over my body.

My voice began to tremble uncontrollably. "Who the hell are you? Who are you?"

The man said impatiently, "Don't talk nonsense."

Then he took out a white handkerchief with his other hand and covered my nose with it.

Before I used much strength to resist, I quickly lost consciousness.

My consciousness was awakened by a basin of cold water that fell onto my body.

I shivered and opened my eyes. I had such an experience once, but it was totally different from that time with Robbie. I found that I was now tied up and thrown to the ground, and the face in front of me was somewhat ferocious.

I curled up. The man had taken off his mask. The coldness in his eyes and the faint scar under his chin made the scene particularly appalling.

His eyes gave me a familiar feeling, as if I had seen him somewhere, but I couldn't remember because of fear.

I asked in a trembling voice, "Who the hell are you? Why did you arrest me? What's your purpose?"

The man held a dagger in his hand, and the back of the dagger scratched my face, making me shiver with fear.

The man snorted, "Who am I? I'm the executioner of bitches like you, the judge of hell to punish you, and the messenger of justice in this city."

I was frantically searching for these inexplicable words, and a terrible idea came to my mind. "You, you are the murderer of the consecutive murders that took place these days, aren't you?"

The man's face was somewhat complacent. "It turns out that you, a famous star, also know my name! Are you scared to hear my name? Are you trembling? A faithful woman doesn't need to be afraid of me. Only a fickle woman like you, who have many boyfriends at the same time, needs to be afraid of me."

"Now that you know who I am, you should know how those women died in my hands, shouldn't you?" he said and raised the knife in his hand.

I've heard from Xenia more or less about the consecutive murders happening these days, and Xenia had told me that the killing method used by the murderer was very cruel, and without exception, everyone killed by the murderer was brutally dismembered in the end.
