[2] Reborn [Jirose Adaption]

Chap348-Drugged at the same time

Just when Jennie felt suspicious, suddenly there was a cry of surprise in the restroom not far away.

"Ah—"

That voice didn't sound like Roseanne's, but this cry was drowned in the noisy banquet hall, and only Jennie, who had just come close to the washroom, heard it.

Jennie walked quickly to the washroom and was about to push the door open, only to find the door was locked from inside!

"Roseanne Lin? You in there?" Jennie vigilantly frowned, put her ear against the door, and asked in a low voice.

There was only silence. No one answered, not even the one who had screamed.

Jennie suddenly lifted her foot to kick hard on the door. The huge crash startled the people in the banquet hall. As the door was kicked open, Jennie rushed in and looked around, but the washroom was empty.

It was not Roseanne who screamed, but the stuff scattered all over the floor was hers!

—-

As a sharp pain came from her neck, Roseanne frowned and opened her eyes slowly in a daze, only to see the crazy-looking Lee Sunmi holding a fruit knife and pressing the blade against her neck.

The pain of her neck and the coldness of the blade made her gradually wake up. She couldn't help shrinking back, but Lee Sunmi also moved the knife closer.

"What are you doing?" Roseanne's head hurt, and she couldn't remember how she was drugged. However, Lee Sunmi's eyes looked so crazy that Roseanne's hair stood up in fright.

"Roseanne Lin, you're finally in my hands!" Lee Sunmi widened her eyes to stare at the beads of blood that oozed from Roseanne's fair-skinned neck and gave a graceful smile as if Roseanne's blood had aroused a craving for blood. She pressed the knife even harder against her carotid artery. "You ruined me! I'm gonna kill you, Roseanne Lin! I'm gonna kill you!"

The drug was still in effect, so Roseanne did not have much strength. However, seeing that Lee Sumi's hand was trembling all the time, she raised her hand tentatively. While Lee Sunmi was trying to press the knife into her neck, she suddenly raised her hand and grasped Sunmi's wrist with almost all her strength. After exerting some more strength, she forced her hand open and snatched the knife from her.

Seeing that she lost a chance to kill Roseanne, Sunmi froze for a moment. She looked at her empty hands, gave a dark stare at Roseanne, and rushed up to grab her neck. "Roseanne Lin, go to hell—"

"Lee Sunmi, wake up!" Roseanne evaded her hand, lifted her arm, and swung her away. Then she saw everything out of the window quickly going backward, and her eyelids jumped sharply.

What happened?

Why were they in a car?

It seemed that the car was driving on a highway, and the road was desolate and had nothing on both sides.

Suddenly being shouted at by Roseanne, Lee Sunmi stared at her, trembling all over. "You think you can still hurt me? Roseanne Lin, even if you want my life, you'll have to die with me! No, you die first!"

Hearing this, Roseanne looked at Sunmi's crazy eyes. "Was it you who drugged me?"

As if hearing some joke, Sunmi laughed. "Stop pretending! That's how you got Park Jimin fall head over heels for you, huh? Just stop pretending to be innocent! It was you who drugged me! Luckily, I woke up early! And luckily, I put a knife in my bag before I went to the dinner party! I can kill you anytime, anywhere!"

It wasn't Lee Sunmi...

So, they were drugged at the same time?

Lee Sunmi was about to pounce on her again. Roseanne frowned and swung her away. "Calm down!"

As she laid her hand on Sunmi's wrist, she looked at the car.

It was a new BMW speeding down the highway, and she and Lee Sunmi were at the back of the car. There was a glass or thick plastic between the back and front of the car. She couldn't see the driver.

From how fast everything was going out of the window, she could tell the car was going at least 150 MPH!

But why were they drugged together and put into the same car?

Roseanne raised her hand and pressed her forehead, remembering that when she went to the washroom, she saw Lee Sunmi in there too.

At that time, Sunmi was standing in front of the bathroom's mirror, rouging her lips and staring through the mirror at Roseanne, who walked past her. There seemed to be an abyss in her eyes ready to devour Roseanne. Her eyes were very scary and full of the same madness and hatred as now.

Roseanne only took two steps in before she decided to leave, not intending to be in the same place with such a mentally disturbed person.

However, before she could go out, two women, whose faces she couldn't see clearly, rushed in behind her. She did want to use the bathroom, and there was only one bathroom on that floor. Seeing two other women came in, she evaded Sunmi and walked to a stall further away on the other side.

When she came out from the toilet stall, Sunmi was gone.

Then she went to wash her hands. She had just put her hands under the tap when she heard a cry of surprise from the nearest stall, which sounded like Sunmi's voice. She was scared, and her instinct told her to leave right away. However, just then, the door of the stall behind her was opened with a clash, and a person rushed out. Before she could get out of the bathroom, she was dragged back, while the door of the bathroom was locked by the two women of great strength, and a wet cloth was placed between her mouth and nose. The pungent smell made her feel dizzy and lose consciousness.

It all happened in two or three seconds, and she didn't have any time to react.

But she never expected that she and Sunmi were drugged and taken away at the same time!

"Listen! Now it's not the time to go crazy!" Roseanne looked at the highway out the window and at the deserted hills and rivers on either side of it, saying solemnly, "I think we've been kidnapped at the same time. Who invited you to that dinner party? Did Lee Jeong yeon invite you to go with her, or you ask her to take you there?"

Sunmi stared at Roseanne resentfully. "Are you trying to drive a wedge between my cousin and me?"

"At a time like this, our lives are tied together! Why should I do that?" Roseanne resisted the impulse to scold her. "We don't even know where we are or what kind of a situation we are in right now! Answer me, was it Lee Jeong yeon who invited you to go to that dinner party?"
