Chapter 266

The firemen who put out the last of the fire in the apartment didn’t know who Zayn and Kenan were.

When Zayn and Kenan went past the police tape to enter the apartment, the firemen shooed them out.

“No civilians allowed beyond the police tape! You have to leave now!” one of the firemen ordered.

Zayn and Kenan ignored the fireman’s orders and headed straight for the living room.

When the firemen noticed the pained expressions on Zayn’s and Kenan’s faces, they understood immediately–they were most likely the victim’s family.

After that, the firemen collectively sighed in sympathy and did not chase Zayn and Kenan out of the

apartment.

Now that the fire had been put out, the firemen were no longer needed. As such, they pulled out of the scene and left the victim’s family to handle her postmortem affairs.
