Chapter 971 Holding Kiki’s Ashes Back
Kiki died three days ago.
While on her honeymoon, Kiki had become obsessed with a local sushi specialty.
That sushi restaurant was particularly hot, the owner only made a hundred copies a day and it was not easy to get them.
Every day, before dawn, there were many tourists from overseas queuing up there.
Quinn also went to the queue a few times, but because he was a bit late when he went there, he ended up not being able to buy it.
That morning three days ago, before the sun had risen from sea level, Quinn had already run to queue outside that sushi restaurant.
He waited in line for an hour and a half and finally got the sushi Kiki had been longing for.
Quinn joyfully carried the box of sushi with him, intending to go back to the hotel and give Kiki a surprise.
However, when he arrived outside the hotel, all his joy turned into heart-breaking pain.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
The hotel, which had been so luxurious two hours ago, had now turned into an inferno on earth. A blazing fire had swept that hotel, firefighters had rushed over to save it and the people nearby had also helped put out the fire, but even so, the hotel had been burned to the ground.
Most of the hotel staff and tenants had been evacuated, and Quinn expected Kiki to be among the evacuated tenants, but she was not.
He searched like crazy, but could not find Kiki.
The fire had been burning for over an hour, and even if she hadn’t been burnt, she would have been choked to death by the smoke in such a blaze.
Quinn did not want to believe that Kiki had died in the fire. He frantically rushed inside the fire to save Kiki, but several police officers stopped him from entering.
He frantically broke away from the police’s grip and rushed into the fire regardless.
Many people broke into a cold sweat over Quinn’s action. Fortunately, the firefighters soon extinguished the blaze and Quinn was not swept away by the blaze.
After the fire was extinguished, several bodies were found at the scene.
One of the bodies was that of Kiki.
Half of her face had been burnt, but the remaining half of her face was clearly identifiable, and that was Kiki!
The diamond ring on the ring finger of her left hand had been dusted in the fire. It was the ring that Quinn had given her, as her finger had also been scorched by the fire and was somewhat charred, making it appear that the ring, which was originally worn just right, was somewhat empty.
As soon as Quinn hugged her, the ring slipped off her ring finger, and her charred finger, set against the broken finger on her left hand, became more and more pitiful.
When he saw Kiki’s corpse, Quinn went completely mad. He kept shouting Kiki’s name, and he stubbornly put the diamond ring on her finger again and again, but every time, the ring would slip off her ring finger as if it was cursed.
After Kiki’s death, Quinn kept hugging her corpse, not eating or drinking, and no matter who persuaded him, it was useless.
Or rather, he had been so completely immersed in his own world that he couldn’t hear the outside world at all.
He just said over and over again to Kiki’s corpse, Kiki, I’m back, I’m back.
He was back, back with Kiki’s favoured sushi, but Kiki, however, had left him forever.
During this time, the police tried to separate Quinn and Kiki’s bodies, the temperature was not cold now and the bodies could easily decay if they were not sparked in time.
But Quinn was too stubborn, and the police were at their wits’ end.
Quinn could no longer feel the outside world, these three days, he did not contact anyone. Paige repeatedly called him and Kiki, no one answered, Paige felt uneasy, personally rushed to their honeymoon place to find them, only to find her son has become a walking corpse.
Seeing the corpse in Quinn’s arms, Paige broke down completely, her tears flowing like beads with broken strings.
She truly loved Kiki, and she knew that Kiki had suffered a lot. She thought that, after marrying her precious son, Kiki would finally be able to end her suffering, but she never thought that her life would be left here.
It had been three days and the body was already rotten and smelly. Paige held back her grief and persuaded Quinn to let go of Kiki so that she could be cremated and put to rest.
When he heard that Kiki was to be cremated, Quinn, who had already turned into a walking corpse, suddenly opened his eyes wide and hugged the corpse in his arms with all his strength.
That was his most precious treasure, no one could steal it.
He did not want to cremate Kiki, now, even if it was a corpse that was starting to rot, at least he could still feel that she was still with him, if he cremated her, she would really leave him forever.
Paige was worried about what to do with Kiki’s body when Quinn, who hadn’t touched any water for several days, finally couldn’t support himself and passed out.
Taking advantage of Quinn’s fainting, Paige ordered her men to dispose of Kiki’s body.
On the bones at the back of Kiki’s neck, there were obvious stab wounds.
In other words, Kiki’s death was not due to this fire for which no cause could be found, but a deliberate murder!
Most likely, Kiki had already been killed before the fire started, and now the fire was set just to cover up the truth of Kiki’s tragic death!
All the cameras in the vicinity of the hotel have been destroyed, and that person is very good at counter-surveillance, leaving no clues at all. Paige used her power to find some clues, but what she got was disappointment.
But no matter how good the man was at covering up, as long as he had done something harmful, they would definitely find him out.
Kiki’s corpse was so corrupt that it was impractical to bring it back to Arkpool City for disposal, so Paige cremated her body directly in the area.
When they arrived, they came in pairs, Quinn and she came over for their honeymoon happily, but now when they returned, Quinn, who was alone, brought back Kiki’s ashes.
When the private plane came back with Quinn and Kiki’s ashes, it was already morning. Freya had been up all night, telling herself countless times that maybe someone had made a mistake and that tomorrow, at dawn, Kiki would still be standing in front of her with a smile on her face, urging her, “Freya, the sun is already shining, why aren’t you up yet! Even a lazy pig is not as lazy as you!
Freya did not wait for Kiki’s words, she only waited for Quinn, whose eyes were hollow, holding her ashes in his hands.
Perhaps God saddened by Kiki’s death, and on the day Quinn returned with her ashes in his hands, a light rain fell from the sky.
The raindrops, which carried a strong scent of sadness, fell on the pure white urn. Quinn’s hands, still covered with black ashes, were dripping with rainwater, which mixed with the ashes and slid down the back of his hands.
He didn’t shed any tears, but the drops of dark grey rain rolling down, added to the feeling of sadness and despair.
