When Yuan Mengge heard his question, she answered, "Eighteen."
The man looked at her with interest and asked, "You're so young, how do you have such fighting skills? Judging from your movements, you must have a lot of practical experience, right?"
What he couldn't understand was why an eighteen-year-old girl would have such proficient practical experience.
He never expected that he would be defeated by a young girl who had just come of age.
From the moment he embarked on this path, he knew that one day he might be caught by the police and then be executed.
Even if that day comes, he will accept it.
After all, he had killed so many people, and he only had one life to pay for it, so he hadn't lost out.
He never expected that he would be caught not by the police, but by a little girl.
"Were you waiting there for me to make a move? Your timing is perfect, like you were just waiting for the exact moment I made my move..." He asked Yuan Mengge with some curiosity.
Yuan Mengge did not deny his question, but she also did not answer it. Instead, she said, "If I answer, will you tell me why I only kill drunkards?"
The man said, "I didn't kill drunkards, I killed trash. If you know what I have in common with my killings, then you should know that they have other things in common, like a tendency to be violent. They are all trash who only use violence against women and children. I'm just cleaning up the trash along the way."
"So why?" He only said these people were trash, but didn't explain why.
Yuan Mengge didn't get an answer, so she asked again.
The man was silent for a few seconds before saying, "The first person I killed was someone like that. It wasn't that I wanted to kill him; I was forced to. If I hadn't killed him, I would have been the one to die."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Mengge nodded: "I see. It seems that this person has a deep relationship with you."
She didn't ask any further questions, but simply offered a guess and a conclusion.
The man then asked her, "And you? How did you know my target today was him? How did you know I was going to kill him? Did someone tip you off?"
Yuan Mengge said, "Someone did give me a tip, but I didn't know that person was your target. I only know that you're going to kill someone there tonight."
Man: "Someone must have told you where I was. Who was it?"
Yuan Mengge rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do you think I would answer that question?"
Man: "...True."
When they arrived at the police station, the man suddenly asked her another question, saying, "By the way, can I ask you one last question?"
Yuan Mengge said, "Ask."
The man looked at her and said, "Can you do me a small favor?"
When Yuan Mengge heard him ask for her help, she turned her head and stared at him thoughtfully: "You're not going to drag me into this, are you?"
The man shook his head and said, "No. I just want you to help me return the money to the person in question. After all, I haven't completed my mission, so I can't accept the money back."
Yuan Mengge: "You want to return the money to the person who hired you? You want me to go and get the money for you? Aren't you setting a trap for me?"
The man looked at her with some surprise and said, "You're quite vigilant."
Then he said, "It's alright, it's understandable that you have concerns. Let's just forget about it then. If you're willing to help, the money is in a box under my bed."
Yuan Mengge: "..."
Yuan Mengge pulled him to a spot not far from the police station and said to him, "Walk there yourself. I'll consider your request. You should understand that you can't run away, right?"
man:"……"
The police officers at the police station suddenly saw a man tied up with rope walk to the door.
The police officers inside all looked at him with utter confusion.
"What's wrong with you? What are you doing?" One of the police officers walked to the door and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
The man said expressionlessly, "...I'm here to turn myself in."
Police officer: "Huh? You're turning yourself in? What did you do wrong?"
Man: "...murder."
The expressions on the faces of the police officers inside changed instantly after he uttered those two words.
The police officers immediately stared at him warily, pointing at him and saying, "What? Say that again!"
Man: "I killed people. And not just one..."
The police officers calmed down and, without saying a word, went up and took the person into custody.
After restraining him and handcuffing him, they interrogated him, asking, "Name, age, where are you from? Why did you kill him? Who did you kill?"
The man calmly replied, "Huang Bo, 38, from Hong County, Seoul."
The police officer remembered his information, and when he heard him mention Seoul, he looked up at him and asked, "You're from Seoul, why did you come to such a far place? Did you escape here? Did you kill people over there?"
Seoul is very far from here, more than 2,000 kilometers away, separated by three provinces.
If he is a murderer, then the police suspect that the murder occurred in his hometown city, given that he traveled such a far distance.
Huang Bo replied, "The first person was killed in my hometown, and then he fled here."
Police officer: "Who was the first person you killed? Why did you kill him? When did you arrive here? How many other people did you kill in between? Tell me everything yourself..."
Huang Bo said, "The first person I killed was my dad."
Upon hearing his words, all the police officers present were stunned and stared at him in astonishment.
"Why...why? Your own father? He was a patricide!"
The police officers who questioned him were shocked and curious as to why he would kill his own father.
Huang Bo remained calm throughout, nodding and saying, "That's right, he was my biological father. I was only sixteen when I killed him. He was an alcoholic and violent man who beat us every day. I grew up under his violence, often getting bruises all over my body and even fracturing my bones several times."
He hit me and it was fine; I'm a grown man, I can endure it, I can take it. But he can't beat my mom away and then hit my grandma too!
He beat my grandma to death! I hate him!
He was still drinking and causing trouble at my grandmother's funeral. I was furious, so we fought. He beat me so badly he tried to kill me, and I had to kill him to survive.
The police officers looked at each other after hearing this, but no one said anything.
That's hard to say.
Even though he was his own father, he beat his grandmother to death and tried to kill him.
If he killed the other person when they were about to kill him, it would be considered self-defense.
Moreover, he was only sixteen years old at the time, not very old.
Police officer: "And then what happened? Why did you kill others?"
Huang Bo: "Later... it was for a living. The news that I killed my father spread in my hometown, and no one was willing to give me a job. In order to make a living, I started to be hired to kill people."
