Under the harsh interrogation lights, Queenie’s smile took on an edge–still beautiful, but laced with something cold and cutting.

Her eyes gleamed with a sharp chill.

Jean felt an inexplicable coldness settle over her like a thin layer of frost. Instinctively, she straightened her back and sat upright, every nerve slowly tensing.

Her questions came like bullets–sharp, unrelenting, and without pause.

The smile on Queenie’s face gradually faded, her expression hardening into something stern and severe. She now resembled the overcast sky outside, dark clouds piling in with oppressive force.

Jean remained composed.

She parted her lips and replied in a calm, level tone, “My name is Jean. I went to the amusement park alone.”
