Secret Killer - Chapter 63

“Why do you think I love that girl?” Leon asked curiously.

“Don’t ask me. I myself have no idea how love works. Never been in love with someone before,” the woman answered.

“So how can you say I love that girl? It makes no sense.”

“A while, you said you kill for personal satisfaction, right?” the woman asked in a low voice.

Leon nodded and asked, “What about it?”

“What do you like about killing people, exactly?”

“Everything? I feel satisfied when I hear their screams. When I see them suffering…” Leon replied and looked at his phone’s screen to check whether Eren had arrived in his bedroom or not. But unfortunately, he didn’t.

“So rather than killing, you enjoy seeing people suffer?”

“Hmm… that’s one way to put it. But killing is necessary, after all. Because the agony before dying is the real suffering,” Leon asserted in a solemn voice.

“If you think the same way about sex and love, sex is similar to killing, and love is the satisfaction,” the woman explained with a weird tone in her voice.

“Oh! That kind of makes sense,” Leon uttered. “So you are saying that if I feel satisfied with sex, I… wait a minute, but I don’t love anyone.”

‘And we are back to square one,’ the woman sighed inwardly. ‘I mean, there is no way a killer can love anyone. And he is clearly a psycho.’

“You know… I thought maybe I felt satisfied because I was the one who fucked her,” Leon wondered. “So I wanted to confirm it.”

The woman raised her brows and asked, “So that’s why you asked me to sleep with you?”

“Yeah.” Leon nodded. “I mean, I can simply r*pe you if I want to,” Leonscoffed and shrugged his shoulders after saying that.

The woman’s face turned pale after hearing that. She was once again acting hostile towards Leon now.

‘That’s right…’ the woman uttered to herself. ‘He can force himself on me if he wants to. But he was asking nicely.’

The woman realized that Leon genuinely wanted to know about love and satisfaction.

“Oh! He is finally here!” Leon let out a deep sigh and placed his phone in his pocket.

He looked at the woman and said, “If you move from there, I will kill you. If you run away, I will find you and kill you. Don’t forget that I killed the president, so you are nothing.”

The woman gulped down and nodded in response.

“Now then… time to attack Eren.”

Leon opened the closet and removed the cardboard from the back. Then, he inserted his hand in a small hole and turned the knob to open the door from Eren’s closet.

Now Leon was inside Eren’s closet.

‘I have planned many ways to kill him, but let’s go with the classic one,’ Leon decided.

Leon knocked on the closet door from the inside and looked at his phone’s screen to see Eren’s reaction.

Eren looked at his closet and stared at it for a few seconds before going back to sleep.

‘Aww, someone is too exhausted to stand up,’ Leon sneered.

Leon knocked on the door again and looked at his phone to see Eren’s reaction.

This time, Eren sat up and turned on the lamplight to see what was going on. But of course, Eren thought the voice was coming from the neighboring apartment.

Eren turned off the light and stared at his closet.

Leon slowly opened the closet door and intentionally made a creaking noise.

CREAK~!

Leon was hiding behind Eren’s clothes, and he was wearing black, so Eren couldn’t see Leon.

Eren got up from the bed and made his way to his closets with short steps. He looked through his clothes from left to right and caught a glimpse of something strange.

Eren moved his hand to touch it, but Leon came out of the closet and stabbed Eren in the chest.

“Nice to meet you.”

“You…” Eren tried to push Leon back, but he couldn’t.

However, Eren had a gun with him in his sweatpants, and Leon wasn’t aware of that. Eren took out his gun and shot Leon in the stomach.

“Heh!” Leon snorted and uttered, “So bulletproof jackets truly work.”

Leon could feel the impact of the bullet, but it was nothing for him.

Eren dashed to his bed and dialed a number to call for a backup, but the line wasn’t responding.

“Don’t bother calling for help. I have jammed all the connections in this area,” Leon asserted and punched Eren on the face.

Eren slammed into the wall and almost passed out, but he kept himself awake and pointed his gun at Leon.

Leon grabbed Eren’s hand and twisted it.

“Aa—!” Before Eren could yell, Leon kicked Eren in the face, breaking his teeth and skull.

Then, Leon grabbed the gun and turned Eren around before shooting him in the same spot he had shot Leon.

“How does it feel, huh?!” Leon asked in a loud voice, almost yelling but making sure not to shout too loud.

After that, Leon picked up Eren by grabbing his hair and tossing him onto another wall. Then, he punched Eren and broke his remaining teeth.

“Because of you… because of you, I missed my chance to kill him!”

Leon continued punching him and said, “Because of you, I felt helpless! Because of you, Tania cried! Because of you…”

Leon blamed Eren for everything that had happened in the past few days. He beat Eren until he died.

Leon punched Eren so many times that Eren’s face was unrecognizable. All his teeth were broken, and his jaw was dislocated. His eyes had popped out and his nose squished, and his skull was cracked into many pieces.

Leon grabbed the gun and shot the remaining bullets on Eren’s back.

After that, Leon gritted his teeth in anger and dashed into the woman’s room with a gun in his hand. He pointed his gun at the woman and moved his finger to the trigger.

“You promised you wouldn’t hurt us!” the woman yelled with an anxious look on her face.

Leon was still furious.  He didn’t feel satisfied after killing Eren.

“I changed my mind. Now I will kill you!” Leon asserted.

“Please don’t! You need satisfaction, right? I will give you satisfaction.” The woman took a deep breath and said, “I will sleep with you.”

Leon raised his brows and asked, “Why do you think it will stop me from killing you?”

“If you kill me, you won’t find the satisfaction you are looking for. Let me help you, and in return, spare me and my child.”
