Revenge After Death

Later, a police officer arrived to question me about Yasmin. I remained silent, leaving the explanation to Rachel.

The officer informed me that Yasmin had dropped her charges, stating that she wouldn't pursue the matter further. All I needed to do was apologize to her.

I continued to remain silent.

"What do you know about this killing game? From what we gathered, you're just an ordinary person who graduated from college a few years ago with little social experience, and you often help homeless children.

"How did you manage to walk out of the ruined building unharmed? And your husband, he's intellectually disabled with mental issues-sorry."

I had never met the officer questioning me. I understood he was just doing his job and had no intention of offending me when referring to Steven as intellectually disabled. Nevertheless, I spoke up warily.

"I wouldn't say I came out unharmed. I did fall down the stairs, resulting in a brain injury. I was in a coma for half a month. I just regained consciousness.

"As for why Yasmin was injured, I assume she was overly frightened in that pitch-black environment, leading her to mistake me for an enemy. Thus, I don't think I owe her an apology," I stated truthfully, though omitting certain details such as intentionally tearing her wound.

"I can vouch for her!" Rachel angrily chimed in.

She was also telling the truth. She certainly hadn't seen me harm Yasmin.

Rachel had never perceived me as someone who would hurt others, and Yasmin's "malicious" image had been deeply ingrained in her heart. Thus, she was inclined to side with me.

The officer glanced at Rachel, then back at me. "But Mr. Ford stated that he was present at the scene and implicitly confirmed that you harmed Ms. Bailey."
