"You can open your eyes."
The entire place was completely silent, and that silence was only broken when Karyk spoke.
Qien was lying on his knees, his eyes staying close in fear. It was only when he heard Karyk's voice coming from right beside him, he slowly opened his eyes.
As he opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that the entire place was completely empty. The gang members weren't there anymore. Even the body of the person killed was not there.
All signs of blood were also erased, as if nothing like that ever took place.
Qien felt like he was going crazy. Was this all an illusion? No! He was certain that this was the reality!
This place was one where he had promised to meet the gang members that paid him. If they were here, the gang should have been there as well.
"Did you... kill them?" His voice was trembling when he asked the question.
