Then, she said to the camera, “Okay, we’ve obtained the information about the deceased. They are…”
As she continued to broadcast, I was too shocked to speak.
Because Mandy’s photo was shown on the screen. She was one of the dead!
Mandy was dead! The other person who had died with her was her roommate.
I remembered Mandy complaining to me about it. “That girl doesn’t care about hygiene. She always brings different men into the room. Every time she brings a man here, she bangs them until midnight. She screams worse than a sow.”
I asked Mandy why she didn’t separate from the girl. Her excuse was that the rent was worth the price and had a good location. It would be difficult to find a more suitable place.
“But I’ll eventually separate from her. Either she leaves or I leave,” Mandy had once said.
Unexpectedly, they both died together before they could separate!
The news said that the two people’s corpses were discovered by their neighbors this morning, but the forensics speculated that the time of death was yesterday afternoon.
In other words, when I was wondering why Mandy didn’t come to the gathering, she was already dead!
The news also said that Mandy and the girl died in a terrifying manner. They both had their organs emptied after their throats were slit.
The murderer was extremely perverted. He even hung their organs on the drying rack like clothes, and the balcony was covered in blood.
“Mandy? That name sounds familiar. Did you mention that name to me?” Dacia’s confused voice came from behind.
I nodded with some difficulty while tears silently streamed down my face.
“The colleague I told you about.”
This was horrible. I had heard from Lily yesterday that she had spoken to Mandy on the phone this morning. Why had Mandy been killed that afternoon?
“You okay?” Dacia sensed that I was upset and walked over to hug me.
I leaned against his chest and listened to the host’s voice on the television.
“This is the most terrifying case that the town of Eureka has experienced in the past hundred years. I hope that the police can catch the real culprit soon and give an explanation to the two victims. At the same time, it will relieve all the residents of Eureka of their fear.”
“I can’t believe this is real…” I couldn’t control my tears.
“You’re in bad shape. Do you want to take a few days off?” Dacia suggested.
I wiped my tears away and shook my head. “No need. I’ll get a deduction for taking leave.”
Either way, I had to make a living.
“Okay, but the news just said it’s not safe out there now. From tomorrow on, I’ll escort you to and from work.”
Dacia was very sweet, and it finally comforted my sad heart a little.
For the rest of the day, I stayed snuggled up to Dacia.
I watched cartoons, and followed him even when he went to drink water.
I didn’t know what was wrong with me. Maybe I was shocked by the news of Mandy’s death.
At night, Dacia specifically stayed in bed with me while I slept. He didn’t go back to the bathroom until I fell asleep.
However, he didn’t sleep. After his body was done soaking in the water, he returned to my side.
This happened several times. In order to accompany me, he didn’t sleep the entire night.
And because I had too many nightmares tonight, I was always frightened awake. Fortunately, he was by my side, so I endured it until dawn.
On the way to work, we sat on the bus and said nothing.
The two young passengers sitting in front of me had been discussing the murder.
The passenger on the left said that this was a serial killer. The murderer targeted young women.
The person on the right said that this was a love triangle. The murderer must have an improper relationship with both the victims.
I felt bad hearing them talk about Mandy so casually.
It wasn’t easy getting to the office. In order to get Dacia back safely, I had to find a corner with him to kiss.
Kissing my lover with a heavy heart was a very bad feeling.
As soon as we entered the office, I saw my colleagues discussing Mandy’s death.
When they saw me, they all gathered around me to ask me about it. It was like I was there when Mandy died.
I was close to Mandy, but that didn’t mean I knew more than they did.
Halfway through work, Daniel called me into his office to express his apologies for Mandy’s death.
He treated me like Mandy’s family, just like my colleagues.
Not only that, but he also mentioned the dinner party that night and apologized repeatedly for not being able to entertain me and Dacia.
And he repeated, “I can tell that you and Dacia are really in love.”
His gaze was strange every time he said this, and it made me uncomfortable.
How should I put this? This was the worst day I’d had since I joined the company.
After work that night, I walked out of the office with everyone and immediately saw Dacia standing nearby.
“Annie!” He was waving at me.
The next moment, the female colleagues beside me start jeering.

“Jesus, is that your boyfriend?”
“He’s so tall. He’s a model, right?”
“He’s too handsome. Annie, I’m so jealous of you!”
I didn’t know how to respond to them, so I just smiled awkwardly.
At that moment, Dacia did something that shocked everyone..
