After a while, the door is opened. Tom looks a little surprised, "What's the matter so late?"
"Go in and talk." Alex pushes the door open, and walks in without caring whether Tom is willing or not.
Tom looks at Alex who breaks in, his eyes flickers, and then pretends to be helpless and says, "You are so rude, you know."
Alex sits down carelessly as if he is back home, looking at Tom with a sharp look,
"Still pretending? Don't you know me? You should be very familiar with me."
Tom closes the door, "I didn't say that I didn't know you, right?"
"What do you mean by @ me? What's your purpose?" Alex asks directly.
"You are so direct but I don't have any purpose. I just want to remind you that you are a murderer because I think you almost forgot these things. This is not good, definitely."
"So you were at the scene at that time?"
"No, I didn't know how and why you killed her. I just helped your father deal with the corpse at that time." Tom responses.
"Then how did you know I was the one who killed her exactly?"
"Coincidence."
Seeing Alex's unbelieving expression, Tom explains,
"It was really a coincidence. Your father was dealing with the body at the time, and I happened to ask him some questions. To be honest, I was really shocked when I saw the corpse. I didn't expect that the teacher I respected so much would be a murderer. Do you know how I felt at that time?"
Alex looks at him and suddenly says, "Excited!"
Tom suddenly gets excited and claps his hands vigorously.
"Yes! I was excited! I didn't expect that the teacher who is knowledgeable and polite in the eyes of outsiders actually likes to kill people like me. I think I have found a kindred spirit. Since then, I have become closer to him."
At this time, Tom pauses and says with some regret,
"It's a pity, however. Later, I found that the teacher and I are not of the same kind, while you is supposed to be in this kind. When I learned the news, I was disappointed, so I left here."
Alex narrows his eyes and asks, "Does that mean you have been killing people all these years?"
Tom nods as a matter of course,
"Yes! But unlike you, I killed bad guys. Hua City, do you know it? It's very chaotic and all kinds of criminals live there, but it's like heaven to me. I even have difficulty choosing targets. Should I kill this one or that one today? Well, I think you'd better go there to experience it, fantastic."
"Since it's so good there, why did you come back?"
"Because I noticed that you have changed and you haven't killed people for three years. I don't know why? But I'm really curious, so I came back."
"If I really changed and stopped killing people, what would you do?"
"Kill you."
Alex gets a little confused when he hears this. He really couldn't understand Tom's brain circuit. Isn't it okay if he will not kill people? He asks in confusion,
"Why do you want to kill me if I don't kill people?"
"It seems that you still don't realize your own uniqueness. People like us are born to be higher than others. What are you going to do if you don't kill people? Live a normal life like ordinary people? You are tainting your own bloodline and I won't allow this to happen."
Alex looks at him steadily, a little speechless. Jesus, this man is awfully sick. The bloodline, what the hell ?
Without waiting for Alex to answer, Tom says,
"Now it seems that I misunderstood. I came back to investigate and found that you are still killing people. This makes me very happy, but what puzzles me is that I feel that you have changed, becoming more like an ordinary person, with a feeling of returning to nature. How did you do it?"
Alex doesn't want to discuss these sick topics with him now. He knows Tom's purpose, and now he wants to ask the questions that the original owner is concerned about,
"Do you have a good relationship with my father?"
"Very good, he treats me like his own son."
Hearing this, Alex notices something strange in his body again. It seems that the original owner is really concerned about this issue. He suppresses the strange feeling and continues to ask,
"Does he know that you killed someone?"
"no." Tom shakes his head.
Alex nods. This is understandable, otherwise it would be too double-standard.
Tom sees him nodding and reminds him, "Don't misundersand. When I said no, it means I don't know whether he knows that I killed someone or not, not that he truly doesn't know that I have killed someone."
Alex doesn't dwell on this issue. Now there is a voice in his mind telling him to tell his father about Tom's murder. Then he would see what his father's expression would be.
Alex knows that this is the original owner's obsession, and he plans to do it. Otherwise, with the original owner's current state close to rampage, bad things might happen.
Alex stands up. Since he knows everything, he doesn't plan to stay with this mentally ill person any longer. When he walks to the door, he suddenly thinks of a question and turns around and asks,
"When are you gonna leave here?"
Tom is stunned and then laughs, "When did I say that I would leave?"
Alex frowns and stares at him,
"What are you going to do if you don't leave?"
Tom explains,
"When I was in Hua City before, I killed many bad guys. It was in accordance with my instinct and I could punish the evil and promote the good. I felt very good and I lived a very fulfilling life during that time.
But after I came back, I went online and found that some people's comments on the Internet shocked me. I think they are more hateful than those criminals.
Just like Susan, who couldn't distinguish right from wrong, which made me very angry, so I killed her. At that time, I was extremely satisfied. This was a feeling I had never had in Hua City, so I decide not to leave and stays here."
Alex thinks about what happened to Susan and It seems that he also should be more careful about what he says online in the future. What if he encounters a pervert like Tom? Where can he go to seek justice?
Alex thinks for a while and says, "What you decide has nothing to do with me, and I don't care. I hope that our relationship will be one of keeping out of each other's way. Can you do that?"
Tom smiles and says, "Yes, but the premise is that you continue to kill people, otherwise I will kill you."
Alex snorts coldly and ignores him.
After returning home, Alex is a little troubled because he has no way to deal with Tom. If he reports it, he is afraid that Tom would be arrested and implicate him. If he doesn't report it, Tom would keep staring at him.
Tom must die, but Alex knows that he must not kill anyone. Once he killed someone, he would have no way out.
What should he do?
Alex suddenly thinks of what Tom said before that he has killed many people in Hua City, which is a place that is in chaos because of its geographical location and historical problems. There are many forces, smuggling, drug trafficking, etc.
Since Tom has killed many people there, he must have offended many forces. Could Alex use them to get rid of Tom?
It must be possible, but it requires a good plan. After all, it is dealing with those criminals. Putting aside the original owner's identity as a murderer, neither the original owner nor himself has such experience, he must be very careful.
In this case, Alex has to prepare and take a long vacation. After all, this matter cannot be completed overnight.
Do it as soon as he thinks of it, the sooner the better. Alex asks for a long vacation from his leader on the grounds that he is sick. He does not say the specific time because he does not know how long it would take exactly. If it takes too long, he would have to resign. Anyway, he has enough money to support himself now.
Then Alex goes back home and tells his mother that he is going on a business trip. Although his mother is reluctant, she does not force him to stay.
Alex finds an opportunity to tell his father that Tom has already killed many guys in the past years. This is the original owner's obsession because he doesn't want his father to keep good relationship with Tom anymore.
Unexpectedly, his father just says "I know" lightly.
"Fuck..."
Alex feels a little uncomfortable in his heart. To be honest, he doesn't know what kind of feedback he wants to get from his father, but he is awfully uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart now because his father's performance is too bland...
