The bean sprouts reluctantly wrapped their roots around the girl's wrists and refused to leave, begging softly, "Master, I want to eat! Eat!"
The owner of the house nearby was trembling with fear and tried desperately to hide behind him. Although she could not sense Douya's thoughts, she was instinctively afraid.
Lan Ke couldn't bear to watch, so she walked over quickly, grabbed the bean sprout stem and roughly pulled it off the girl's wrist. She still had something to ask the girl, but she couldn't let this person die.
The bean sprout retracted its roots and lay listlessly in Lan Ke's palm, pretending to be dead.
Lan Ke thought of the bodies outside and simply said, "Go and deal with the bodies outside."
Although there have been violent incidents everywhere recently, the existing police force is not enough, but once someone calls the police, no one can say for sure whether the police will come. Lan Ke doesn't want to take risks, so those bodies must not be left behind.
After receiving the order, Douya was immediately revived with full health and flew out happily.
Lan Ke then looked at the young house owner who was trying to hide in the corner. She saw that her hands were tied behind her back, but her legs were free. She only had a pair of socks on her feet. Her shoes were nowhere to be found. She seemed to seldom go out. Her face was unhealthy and pale. Both cheeks were swollen and had clear marks of slaps.
The slap mark was very large, and it didn't match the girl's hand at all. It was probably caused by the shaved-head youth. The man hit the owner so hard that the corner of her mouth was broken. Her hair was already a little messy, and the slap mark on her face made her look even more miserable.
Lan Ke felt sorry for her and said, "Turn your back and I will untie it for you."
The homeowner looked at the knife in Lan Ke's hand and shuddered with fear, but still hesitated and turned his back, revealing his hands tied behind his back.
Lan Ke then saw that her hands were tied with a silk scarf, which was tied very tightly. Her hands were already swollen and purple, and it was obvious that she must be very uncomfortable.
Lan Ke did not use the Mo Lin knife, but picked up the dagger on the bed and slashed the silk scarf hard, cutting it open. As soon as the scarf loosened, the owner's hands immediately fell weakly at his side.
"Move around a bit. You weren't tied up for long. It's not a big deal. Just bleed some blood." Lan Ke said calmly. Seeing that the owner had turned around, she stuffed the dagger into her arms and said, "This thing is quite sharp. Use it for self-defense."
She stopped paying attention to the owner when she said this, and walked to the bedside, looking coldly at the girl lying on the bed: "Who are you? Why are you with them? What is your purpose? How many times have you done something like this today? How many people have you harmed?"
The girl lost too much blood and was very weak. Her face was pale and she couldn't even sit up. When she saw Lan Ke, she shuddered instinctively and whispered, "I... I didn't..."
The knife flashed, and the sharp blade of the Mo Lin Knife was hanging on the girl's neck. Lan Ke said coldly: "Think about it first!"
The girl rolled her eyes, staring at the blade so close to her. Her body trembled even more violently. "I'm telling you! I'm telling you! Please don't kill me! I was forced by them. If I didn't do that, they would... would rape me. I did it because I was afraid."
The young homeowner saw this scene and showed a look of pity on his face: "How about...how about letting her go? She is still a little girl, what bad things can she do? She looks quite pitiful, and she is still a junior high school student."
The girl was delighted when she heard that, and quickly turned around, looking at the owner pitifully, her eyes full of pleading.
"It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin." Lan Ke ignored the owner. As soon as she finished speaking, the blade suddenly fell, just touching the girl's skin, leaving a thin line of blood, "Are you willing to tell me now?"
The girl felt the coldness and stinging on her skin. She was already frightened out of her wits and tears welled up in her eyes. She knew she couldn't hide it any longer, so she began to confess with sobs.
According to her, she knew these gangsters before and often played with them. Recently, they saw the violent incidents on the Internet and thought it was profitable, so they wanted to do something to make more money before the Chinese New Year.
Recently, due to the increasing number of violent incidents, most shops were closed, and only a few supermarkets guarded by armed police were open for business. As they were few in number, they did not dare to rob supermarkets, so they set their sights on residential buildings, and after some investigation, they set their sights on the single apartments here.
Most of the people living in bachelor apartments are young single men and women, so they are the easiest to target.
The girl was young and looked pleasing, so she was entrusted with an important task, pretending to be chased by someone and tricking them into opening the door. Once the door was opened, the thugs who had been lying in ambush at the door would rush in and rob.
So far, they have succeeded five times and are becoming more and more daring.
When the owner heard this, her brows furrowed tightly. However, seeing the girl's hopeless look, she couldn't help but say, "Although she did something wrong, her crime is not punishable by death. Just hand her over to the police and give her a chance to reform."
"Just robbing things?" Lan Ke seemed not to have heard what the owner said, and looked at the pale-faced girl sarcastically, "Are you sure you didn't do anything else? Who were the people you robbed? How many men and how many women? How are they? Tell the truth!"
“People… People…” The girl suddenly couldn’t continue. She turned her head and buried her face in the quilt, crying, “Don’t ask me, I don’t know! I don’t know anything!”
"You don't know or you don't dare to say? Do you want me to say it for you?" Lan Ke showed no sympathy for her, and she didn't feel pity for her because she was young. "Not only did you rob her, you also killed her, and you tortured her severely before killing her. Am I right?"
The girl suddenly screamed hysterically: "I don't know! You're talking nonsense! I didn't kill anyone! No!"
Lan Ke continued to speak slowly: "No, not only did you kill someone, you are also the core of this team. The man outside is your father, right? You committed crimes with him, tortured people together, and watched others cry and beg for mercy. Don't you feel proud?"
The girl raised her head suddenly and looked at Lan Ke with sinister eyes: "How do you know? You didn't see it, how did you know? I tortured them and killed them, so what? Who asked them to open the door? They deserved to die for being so stupid!"
"So you really did it." Lan Ke's eyes became colder and colder. At first, she just felt that the girl looked familiar, but she was not sure whether she was the person she had met in her previous life.
But now, she was completely sure.
"It seems that I can't let you live anymore." She said this and turned to look at the owner of the house. "What do you think?"
There was heating in the room, but the owner felt cold all over. She never thought that the girl, at such a young age, could be so terrifying!
What on earth is her heart made of
