CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
DEBORAH AMARILYS
I saw how Kenji gulp hard when we were welcomed by a murderous stare. Kenji was with me who kept on giving me suspicious looks. Ugh, seriously? This was the first time I saw him acting this way? What could be the reason?
“Welcome back, Kenji. Sir Fran and his sister are waiting for you.” said by the guard on the first gate. He glared at me suspiciously and let Kenji walk inside.
I followed him but I was immediately stopped by the guard. “I didn't see you lingering to Kenji before, what could be the reason why you're here?”
“I was ordered by the vice-captain to gather information from the outside territory. There had been 5 murders from the past 4 months, I believe that the second unit are doing their best to catch the murderer. If you can't let me pass then I suggest you to call the second unit's vice-captain to settle this thing, right here.”
I felt how Kenji stared at me while I was speaking. Why? Why the fuck is he staring at me like that? Damn, I think my head is gonna burst.
The guard sighed and didn't spoke, he just gave me the space for me to walk through. Kenji gave me a suspicious look while we were walking on the hallway.
“Hey you, do you know what you're doing? That guard from earlier clearly knew who the vice-captain of second unit is, we'll be in trouble if they met each other, tsk!” he whispered, almost shouting.
I was just walking confidently while staring in front.
“Just fucking shut up. Oh, why did that guard knows you huh? Could it be that you're Lou Siév's spy in Bonten? You scumbag...”
“Heh, I should've killed you earlier if I'm Lou Siév's spy, tsk.”
I didn't answered and continued walking.
“...Seven! Eight! Nine! Ten!”
We both stopped from walking when we heard grunts, muffled cries, and loud shouts, coming from a room. I stared at the glass window and what I've seen terrified me. A man was tied up, naked, and was being tortured to death. Lots of blood was dripping from his cuts, his eyes were both bleeding, face fully unrecognizable. But what shocked me the most was his tattoo. Bonten's insignia tattoo for non-executives, a half moon with a snake surrounding it, and the person's surname on top of it.
Even when my heart was thumping like crazy, I still managed to smirk while my hands were trembling. “Ishikawa...” I mumbled to myself.
Right, the man who's being tortured to death is Kenji Ishikawa, Nana Ishikawa's younger brother...
“Silly girl, you're fourth unit's vice-captain and still you can't figure out? How stupid of you.” I heard a deep voice behind me.
Yeah, silly me. How the fuck did I forget? Kenji Ishikawa will do everything to complete his mission, no scratch and smooth. While this man behind me doesn't care. He should've help me earlier when that guard suspiciously doubted me.
I hurriedly tilted my head to the left side when I felt him swung a swiss knife. Fuck, if I was too late to dodge his attack, my cheek should've been cutted by now.
I stared at the fake Kenji who's now smirking while staring at me. My heart thumped like crazy when he finally peeled his mask.
“Greetings miss Deborah Amarilys, my name's Khael Demian Reverio, Lou Siév's first unit captain.” he exclaimed while wiping the hem of his shirt. “Damn, it took you 5 minutes to figure out the whole situation here miss Deborah, you're truly elegant, hahaha.”
