These Dangerous Girls Placed Me Into Jeopardy

Chapter 39: [Active Devotee] Showing Her Smile (1)

I suddenly felt a bit thirsty.

I wondered if there was any vending machine nearby.

I would like to try the coffee that Jun Cheng often drank. He had said that this brand of coffee contained lots of sugar, so it wouldn’t taste so bitter. After I arrived at the roof of the building, I cut off the lock on the door and pushed the door to the rooftop.

The moon already revealed itself, emitting shimmery light through clouds into my eyes.

Tonight’s moon was nearly full, which made me very uncomfortable.

I didn’t like full moon.

Actually, I didn’t like anything that was complete. Just couldn’t help making a breach on them.

So I better finished my business here and went back to the Black Street. There was no moon at that place.

“So, you have followed me here… Haha…”

“Have you run enough?” This Killing Ghost was a little weird. When he had seen my face, he had turned around at once and run away.

Someone else had done the same thing before, but those people had only wanted to lead me into a trap or tried to stall for time.

Once a person became a Killing Ghost, he or she would never stop killing people. Even when they were about to be killed, they would still think of killing.

However, this time, this Killing Ghost didn’t set any trap for me or have the intention to strike back. The only thing she had been doing was running.

“Ah haha, if it’s possible, I really don’t want to be enemies with you… Let’s chat with each other first, what do you think?” Having turned around by the handrail with an embarrassed look on his face, he said that with open arms.

He didn’t bring any weapons. Was he trying to tell me that he had no hostility toward me?

That was an unnecessary move.

“White hair demon girl, do you know that you are called ‘killer killer’ among our killer’s group… That means the ones who only kill the killers.”

“So?” Was he trying to stall for time now? Perhaps there were other killers around this place. I had to be cautious.

“I’m just like you. We are the same.” He suddenly said that. Then I had to look right at his face.

It was the first time I had ever met a Killing Ghost like him.

Normally, those Killing Ghosts would say ‘You are nothing like us.’ ‘What kind of monster you are?’ ‘Why does someone like you exist in this world…’ or something else to doubt my identity. But none of them had said something like ‘We are the same.’ That was just so strange.

“What are you trying to refer?” We didn’t have anything in common in any aspects. First, he was a male and I was a female. Our genders were different.

Perhaps because I had responded to him, he approached me with a joyful look on his face and continued,

“White hair girl, though I don’t know your name, I know there must be a reason that you have become like this… Just like me.”

“…”

“All my families were killed by a Killing Ghost. I only survived because I have hidden in the closet. But I witnessed how he killed my families from the beginning…!” I drew my knife back and listened to him quietly.

“That Killing Ghost kept laughing loudly when he killed the people I love the most, even my sister was… That’s so outrageous… My poor families! When I saw that brutal scene, I threw up right away. The whole closet was filled with my vomits… It was so disgusting! I couldn’t understand… What was he so happy when he killed others?! Isn’t it a painful, ugly and dirty thing?… He just kept laughing while repeated killing my families with a joyful look on his face. I will never forget an evil person like that!” This man…. “At that time, I made up my mind that I would kill all the Killing Ghosts in the world! I have to revenge! I will find that Killing Ghost who has killed my families and cut him into pieces! After that, before I even realized, I have already led a life of searching for Killing Ghosts and going out of my way to kill them. But I was just a human at that time, I was too weak to fight those Killing Ghosts. At one time, after I had failed in murdering a Killing Ghost, I thought I would be dead. But I was saved by a ghost… I disdained to live on in degradation at first, but as long as I could get my revenge, I am willing to become a Killing Ghost! Even if that is the creature I hate the most!”

So, he still hadn’t noticed.

“However, I am outnumbered by the enemies. I am still too weak working alone… Then I heard about you! I know you can kill all the Killing Ghosts, right?!”

“So, can you be my companion?” He lowered his head and reached out his hand to me sincerely.

But I only raised my head and asked,

“Then, why were you laughing?”

“… What?”

“When you were talking about your story.” He, being a bit confused, raised his head to look at me. I only pointed at his face and said again,

“You were laughing, the whole time.”

“Wh… What?!” He was frozen.

“You said… I was laughing?” I drew out my military knife immediately, but I didn’t attack him. In stead, I only put the knife in his hand which had been reached out to me.

He saw the reflection by the moonlight of his smiling face on the knife.

That smile was filled with craziness, excitement and joy of satisfaction. An iconic smile of a Killing Ghost.

After that, he covered his face miserably and said in a trembling voice,

“Ah… Why would it be like this… I finally ended up like those ugly ghosts…” He suddenly grasped the blade with his left hand fiercely and held the handle with his right hand while biting his lips. When he raised his head again, I saw determination in his eyes.

I lifted my dress and took out another knife.

Death was the only thing he wanted for.

I would give him that.

I transformed into the ghost shape while walking toward him. After he was within the range of my attack, I jumped forward with all my strength and slashed toward him.

As my blade was about to touch him, he suddenly threw away the knife in his hand and jumped backward with open arms, giving up resistance in a very comfortable posture.

“The most splendid moment of my life should be killing someone or…” Having paused for a moment, I caught that bloodstained knife reflectively and brandished the two knives in my hands to attack him.

I gave him seven horizontal cuts and six vertical cuts in the fastest speed and the shortest time interval.

“Being killed!” There were cracks showing on the his skin. I had already finished cutting him, but his body hadn’t realized that he had been cut.

“It’s such a shame… I’ll wait you on the other side…” He turned his head to the right. Maybe he wanted to look at me for the last time.

But he was unable to do that, since his eyeballs had already been cut into two pieces.

Blood started to ooze out from those straight cuts. And every pieces of his flesh couldn’t hold together.

“I hope you… never die…” His body exploded all of a sudden. His blood, flesh and everything that showed that he had used to be a human all scattered on the ground.

Under the moonlight, my hands were completely red.

The air beside the handrail was filled with the smell of the blood.
