Chapter 946: Killed With One Stab
Before he could finish his words, Fiennes coldly swept his gaze over the two men in black who were restraining Aunt Shen.
The two men looked at each other and immediately walked up to Su Wan.
However, they were worried that Su Wan was still Fiennes’ fiancee in name. In addition, they had seen Fiennes’ willful tolerance towards Su Wan over the past few days, so they did not dare to make a move for the time being.
Aunt Shen stopped crying and looked at Su Wan in a daze.
Would Young Master Fiennes let her go because of Miss Su’s words?
…
One of the men in black asked Fiennes carefully.
“Young master, are we really going to take Miss Su to the Quiet Room?”
When Su Wan heard their questions, she became more and more curious about what kind of place the Quiet Room was.
Previously, Aunt Shen had cried so hard that she refused to go. Could it really be that terrifying?
Su Wan quietly looked into Fiennes’ eyes. Her black almond-shaped eyes were incomparably clear. Under such circ.u.mstances, there was actually a sense of a calm before the storm.
Fiennes did not reply to the black-clothed man. His gaze fell straight on Su Wan’s face, and his expression was mixed with many complicated emotions.
It was unknown whether it was mostly anger or disappointment.
“Su Wan, you chose your own path. Don’t blame me.”
As soon as he said this, everyone immediately understood what Fiennes meant.
The two men in black glanced at Su Wan sympathetically.
Su Wan stood there neither servile nor overbearing. She met Fiennes’ gaze and nodded lightly.
“Thank you, Young Master Fiennes, for your help. I hope you can let Aunt Shen go and spare her life.”
At a time like this, this woman still had time to think about other people?!
Fiennes sometimes admired Su Wan’s willpower. She did not even ask where the Quiet Room was and instead begged for mercy for others.
Did she really think that it was so easy to be a hero?!
Fiennes looked at Su Wan with a complicated expression. He suddenly saw a sense of déjà vu in her eyes.
However, there was no attachment or pleading in Su Wan’s eyes.
…
Many years ago, he had raised a cute little squirrel.
The squirrel had probably hurt its leg with a trap. Later, it stumbled into his yard.
At that time, Fiennes had no playmates, nor did he like anything.
However, when he saw the timid little squirrel looking at him with a pair of dark eyes, Fiennes suddenly felt his heart soften.
He found medicine and gauze and helped the little squirrel treat its leg. The squirrel was also extremely attached to him. After its leg was healed, it stayed by his side and was unwilling to leave.
Fiennes gave the squirrel a cute name, Dodo.
Fiennes treated the squirrel’s injuries and also found all kinds of food for it. For example, pine nuts from the pine trees on the mountain, and all kinds of nuts…
Seeing the squirrel eat happily, Fiennes’ gloomy life became a little brighter because of Dodo.
He thought that he would take good care of Dodo, but if Dodo was willing to leave, Fiennes was willing to send it back to the forest.
After all, such a cute little creature should not be restricted in a human inst.i.tution.
…
After about a month, Fiennes finally wanted to set Dodo free.
However, on the day that Dodo was set free, the funny little squirrel ran two to three meters away from his leg and started to look back step by step.
Dodo looked at Fiennes with great reluctance, obviously unwilling to leave this cheapskate master.
Although it was an animal, it could also sense who was good to it.
Such a lonely boy, usually no family and friends to accompany him, only had such a small squirrel, as the pearl in the palm of his hand, the treasure of the heart.
Fiennes kept it for almost two months.
But later, even Fiennes did not think that Dodo died.
He killed it with his own hands.
He stabbed into Dodo’s body, and watched as the squirrel began to spill blood, the bright red color following down his hand.
Drop by drop, it splattered on the floor.
The bright red almost burned Fiennes’ vision.
But Fiennes was even more afraid to look into Dodo’s eyes, those gentle, lovely black eyes.
Dodo looked sadly at Fiennes, its dark eyes filled with disbelief and then despair.
It was strange that he could even read the little squirrel’s eyes.
They were filled with grief.
The cute little squirrel probably would never understand why its master, whom it had relied on so much, wanted to end its life with his own hands.
In such a direct and cruel way.
He killed it with one stab.
And Fiennes’ hands were covered in blood. From then on, it was a sin that could never be washed clean.
Fiennes had killed more than one person since then. However, when he dreamed in the middle of the night, the day when he personally took Dodo’s life was the scariest.
The deaths of others he killed did not bring him any fear.
…
After ending that unbearable past, Fiennes clenched his fingers. Even the joints of his fingers were emitting a cold greenish-white color.
Su Wan had already been taken away by the two black-eyed men without any resistance.
However, the two guards did not restrain her. Su Wan strode forward as if she was not a traitor who was going to be punished, but a refined scholar who was strolling leisurely.
Fiennes stared at Su Wan’s back in a daze. The image of Su Wan looking straight at him replayed in his mind.
Her clear almond-shaped eyes were extremely clear and clear.
No wonder he felt that Su Wan’s eyes were so familiar.
It turned out that they were a little similar to the squirrel that he had once raised.
Perhaps one day, he would kill Su Wan with his own hands, just like how he killed Dodo.
…
Su Wan was blindfolded and sent into the so-called Quiet Room.
Someone held her hand and led her down the stairs step by step.
Su Wan staggered and almost fell, while the person next to her held her carefully.
Later, Su Wan heard the sound of the person’s footsteps leaving and the heavy sound of the door closing.
Su Wan pulled down the black cloth covering her sight, but it was still dark around her.
It was pitch black.
Su Wan was stunned. She staggered back a step and touched the solid wall behind her.
It was extremely quiet. Su Wan even suspected that she could hear the sound of a pin falling to the ground.
In the endless silence and darkness, Su Wan could not help but raise her head and call out.
“Is anyone there?”
Only a moderate echo could be heard.
Is anyone there…
Su Wan’s body trembled slightly, and an inexplicable fear spread throughout her body.
The darkness was like a devil that existed in her heart, constantly magnifying the fear.
So, the so-called Quiet Room was to lock someone up in a small dark room?
Su Wan could not help but squat down. She sat down with her hands on the wall. With the feeling of having her feet on the ground, the empty fear in her heart dissipated a little.
When Su Wan was in Dong Chen Country, she had taken a minor course in criminal psychology.
One of the lessons was about sensory deprivation experiments.
