Chapter 19: Capturing the killer

The next morning, the first thing I did after I woke up was turn on my cell phone and opened the webpage. Sure enough, all the webpages, news, newspapers, and magazines had the homicidal maniac on their headlines. In addition, the reporters united together and recorded down my interview word for word. It made me sound so despicable that even I couldn’t stand it.

Everything I said was leaking with shameless provocation. This was the type of effect that I intended.

While I was watching the news, a few moments later, Sheyu’s colleague called me and asked what was going on. I told him it was nothing, I was just bullshitting. Unavoidably, he lashed out and lectured me.

Afterwards, I pretended nothing happened and prepared breakfast for Suyang like what the contract had stated.

When Suyang came home, he was in shock. He fixedly remained by the entrance, “You cooked?”

“Doesn’t the contract state I am responsible for three meals a day?” I sat across from Suyang. “Are you busy today?”

Suyang sat down and was about to eat. “I knew it. One who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions.”

“It is easier to get your way with food.” I gave him an honest grin, “It’s not that big of a deal. I just want you to drive me somewhere.”

“Where?”

“The college where we went to yesterday. There is something I have to do around there.”

“What do you have to do?”

“Are you a curious baby? Why do you have to get to the bottom of everything huh? If you won’t take me, I’ll take the taxi there myself. When the homicidal maniac is caught, I don’t think you will have the opportunity to talk to him anymore.” I snapped back as I pretended to leave the apartment.

“Wait! I didn’t say I wouldn’t go. Let me finish my meal first.”

Haha! I evilly smirked. Since I knew Suyang’s strange fetish, I was able to use him to my advantage. Although it was rather despicable of me, I could not help but admit that I was a genius.

I made Suyang drop me off at a spot that was very far from the flower shop and walked there by myself. This time, I was no longer avoiding. I confidently had my head raised and chest struck out as I entered the flower shop.

“Boss, I would like a bundle of white roses.” I called out. I noticed the boss had bent over to attend something. I looked around the flower shop and saw that all the flowers were at its prime. It was Spring, and the perfect season to catch the homicidal maniac.

Honestly, if I hadn’t known his real intentions, I would have thought this was a happy and comforting place.

“Wait a minute. I-...” The homicidal maniac saw me and paused for a second. Then, he used standard Mandarin and enthusiastically exclaimed, “I’ll get it for you right away! I’ve been so busy all day. Sorry about that!”

Acting, eh?! Keep acting! I can act too!

“No problem. I’m not in a rush. Please take your time.”
