Guess The Ghosts
Page 20

This was the second day, and now the interrogation was completely finished. The handcuffs hook the man's right and left wrist. Throughout the conversation there was no avoidance, even when the handcuffing 'no rebellion. Weird, right? But this is the last stage, only to bring evidence and then the punishment will be immediately imposed.

*prok! Prok! Prok! Prok! ...

Inside the meager room, his excited applause echoed across every corner. With the door closed, the sound bounced for so long as it came to celebrate the relief of the two of them who were inside.

"This is so good, Lou Yan! If so, we can continue to sell the work as usual. But really, on the other hand I'm actually glad it's not as hard and as long as I thought. Fuhh..."

Lou Yan smiled faintly hearing his assistant excitedly. Just like that man, he also sighed.

His eyes always stared straight at the painting returned by the police, and now the object as big as half of the blackboard can be brought back home. Because the situation is like this, inevitably the goods will be sold again later if the situation has subsided, because Lou Yan himself does not want to keep his old work that has been purchased.

If only the problem had stopped there.

During the interrogation carried out 2 days, there were many strange things that were difficult to say what the awkwardness was. Lou Yan had been monitoring her closely, and there were actually no strange or disturbing words. All that was said was about how he killed his daughter by pushing up the stairs and how he forcibly fired the maids who had previously worked in his mansion. But still there is nothing unreasonable on the sidelines of his explanation.

Therefore, it's good he found out and reported it.

"Felix, get some people to bring this painting and have them put it in the north Mansion. We're going to Red Peacock Housing now."

The young assistant was shocked after hearing that. He tried to ask even though 'pun in his grasp available Mobile ready to use when 'to carry out the command earlier.

"Why did you suddenly go there?" Those words came out of his mouth in harmony as to what was in his head.

"You'll find out there. After all, you want to occasionally go to the Red Peacock Housing from long ago, right? So don't ask again and get on with it quickly"

After slightly adjusting her uncomfortable clothes, Lou Yan cast a pushy gaze then walked leisurely towards the door. Felix snorted given an unsatisfactory answer. Although his lips murmured, his hand moved quickly looking for someone's contact on his phone then brought the thing closer to his ear.

"... In fact, the man's return to the Mansion was more valuable than the arrival of this painting. If only the man knew." From his slow voice already revealed that he actually wanted Lou Yan to rest in the right place, namely his own Mansion since the last time Lou Yan came home. He was very sad, but what a power. Lou Yan already had his own inviolable plan.

"Hello...?"

While following Lou Yan who had already walked away, he contacted the other colleagues and asked them to come to the police station where he was now by saying that on the orders of the superior. It doesn't take long to communicate. When he was outside, the phone immediately died.

"Felix, can you use a faster track?Looks like it's gonna rain"

At the parking lot, Lou Yan stood quietly waiting for Felix to turn the car around. He looked around as well to capture the view of the city and the sky was as dark as it was about to come raining. However, looking at the clouds that move with the flow of the wind, it looks like the rain will fall in the countryside or maybe inland areas.

"...Felix?"

Lou Yan called out for the second time. But Felix didn't hear it.

The man looked in a direction. An energy seemed to pull him firmly, which made him unable to turn and always felt forced to look long in that direction.

"Isn't that the car? ... It's still here"

Lou Yan approached and lowered his head to look at the inside of the car which was blocked by the black glass. A memory appears. It was a bad memory. Although it looked dark inside the car, there was something darker like a tall human silhouette there... Of course after seeing that for the second time, Lou Yan could immediately tell why the interrogation yesterday and earlier felt so awkward.

Hearing the loud honking sound, Lou Yan immediately distanced his face from the car's glass and left it as if nothing had happened.

...

"There's nothing, Fel. What am I gonna do with that regular car?"

Seeing how Lou Yan replied, there was no gap for Felix to ask more. The stranger the conversation will be if it continues, so that the curiosity is hidden and increasingly disappears by itself because of the focus on the highway.

Zaidan sat pensively in a quiet room. The place he had been to for some reason, but felt strange when he sat there alone, and the circumstances he could not accept it made him want to quickly get out. There, he got a warm drink and some treatment, it was all thanks to the teacher who had brought Zaidan, the teacher realized his pale face and took the initiative to take him to the UKS to be treated.

Previously Zaidan had refused because he thought it was not important, but it turned out that his body was getting hotter afterwards.

Sitting on a UKS mattress, Zaidan raised his head slightly up and saw Nina standing in front of him. One of the women's hands held Zaidan's face gently. Zaidan felt a chill from that hand and enjoyed it as if it was hand-shaped frozen water.

"Cold, huh?" ask Nina.

Zaidan replied with an helpless nod.

"I don't know why this is all of a sudden. Nina saw, wasn't I okay this morning? I rarely get sick and never get this hot, it feels like my body is on fire." Zaidan said.

He was indeed someone who could be said to stay away from illness. Anyway, Vivie doesn't like Zaidan being sick. When dark clouds bring rain, the whole family tells them not to go to school, sometimes they suggest umbrellas if the rain drizzles. So far, there is no sudden rain at school that makes it to shelter for a very long time.

Everything is too normal in Zaidan's life. It even became like a pressure all its own...

"Did Zaidan not feel something changing? All the energy here that used to be quiet is now attracted to Zaidan. That's why Zaidan became like this" Vaguely looks the look on Nina's increasingly strange face. Zaidan thought it was a worried face.

"Energy.. What?..."

Nina's hand slipped off her cheek and changed to raise her right hand into the air. There Nina touched Zaidan's wrist with her thumb and made a perfect circle around it, then she showed it to Zaidan. Zaidan felt uncomfortable because the touch felt more than the real word. This time Zaidan forcibly withdrew his hand.

Then he realized something...

"Wait, bracelet... How could it not exist?! I remember not taking it off in the shower" Her mind was filled with questions. He realized again, that the same thing had happened again as it had happened that afternoon.

"It looks like it's very 'important'... " Nina closed her palm silently.

"Nina knows where it fell? Is it at home? Hopefully not at school or on the street..."

Zaidan said that while worried because he knew, the possibility of getting his bracelet back was very small and took a long time. At least if at home, the object is safer in the hands of Moma or Mommy if they accidentally find it.

"That's... When Nina disappeared, Nina actually saw the thing stolen by the man who was in Zaidan's house this morning, but Nina did not know if it was something 'important', so did not take it back... Nina's guilty." A feeling of guilt emanated from the woman's face, her hands on each other in front of her tall body. However, those black eyes always pointed towards Zaidan.

"There's no need to apologize, Nina!" Now the guilt is also hitting Zaidan.

"We can all not know about something, and surely Nina would not have thought to tell you that. I'm not upset with Nina at all. But it's just, I'm confused as to why the Master took my bracelet? It was Moma's gift, I promised to take good care of her"

While trying to make Nina feel better, a guess arises when the bracelet was removed from her hand. If indeed it was taken by the man who had come to his house this morning, it should have been when Zaidan was given some money. And the question is... Why was the bracelet taken? It was not even made of gold or metal, it was made of a pliable fabric material that was black in color. There is nothing special about it actually.

And now, Zaidan is dizzy how he can ask for the item back...

"Oh, yeah... I will definitely take it to hand it back to Zaidan." With firm intonation, the promise was made.

"... Thank you?" Zaidan was at a loss for words.
