Chapter 30 The Great Secret!
Ceres heard the masked man said it was a "secret," and she wanted to know the truth even more.
"You tell me now. I will not tell anyone!" Ceres vowed to say.
The masked man came back. At that moment, Ceres heard her fast heartbeat, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
"Then promise not to tell anyone."
"I swear not to tell anyone." Ceres raised her hand nervously and seriously, making an oath.
He would tell her a big secret, right?
The masked man then took off his gloves, and Ceres almost held her breath and carefully picked up the masked man's hand. When she saw his hand, she immediately looked up in doubt and looked at him. There was indeed a wound on the back of his hand, but it was not a scalded wound at all, but it seemed to be cut by a knife. It was a crisp wound, and no other trace could be seen.
If the wound was huge, Ceres could even doubt whether it was deliberately made to cover the scalded wound, but the wound was too small. The burned wound had two bubbles, and the surroundings were rec and swollen. It was impossible to get better so quickly!
"What kind of secret will you tell me?" Ceres was obviously disappointed.
"Yesterday, Mr. Johny was assassinated. Not only did I not catch the murderer, but I also hurt myself. Do you know that if people know that there was an assassination yesterday, and I was injured and let people run away, I will lose my job?"
Ceres was speechless. It seemed that she really wronged him.
"You must not tell anyone about it." The masked man said very seriously.
Ceres sighed silently. "Okay, I will not tell others. I'll get you some medicine to help you deal with it. Wait for me!"
Ceres went straight to Johny's room because the medicine cabinet was in his room, and the masked man did not stop her. When she rushed into the room, Johny was lying quietly in bed, and his hands were still burnt.
It seemed that her speculation was wrong.
Ceres was relieved. Maybe everything was just a coincidence. She quickly took the medicine kit and returned to the balcony. She carefully treated the wound of the masked man.
The masked man suddenly smiled.
Ceres looked up at the masked man. "What are you laughing at?"
"I am laughing at you."
"What is so funny about me?"
The masked man gently approached Ceres's ear. "You felt heartbroken for me, so I feel funny."
"I did not..."
"Don't you feel heartbroken?" The masked man directly interrupted Ceres's words.
Because they were too close, Ceres's face suddenly turned red, but it was a little dark, and he could not see clearly.
How did she answer that? If she said no, that would make her seem merciless. If she said yes, that would make them seem to be too close.
"Of course, I feel heartbroken, I just..." He suddenly covered Ceres's mouth. "That's enough."
He didn't give her a chance to explain at all. "I need to go on patrol." After saying that, he left, leaving Ceres alone.
It was another sleepless night.
The next day was the day when Ceres could go out. As usual, the masked man armed to the teeth and drove her.
After shopping, Ceres asked him to wait for her. She was going to the bathroom, and as soon as she walked to the corner of the bathroom, a pair of big hands covered her mouth and dragged her into the dark corridor!☐☐☐☐
