The Devil who devoured Snow White - Chapter 301 Fully Aware

301  Fully Aware

Just as Cecilia was about to get out of her car, she heard her phone ring. When she checked, she saw Skeleton’s name on the caller ID.

Ever since she found out about her brother’s unhealthy hobby, she had always wanted to reach out to Yong Liwei since she had seen the news about him marrying Lu Mengjie. His wife was one of her brother’s victims. Yes, one of them and also, the first victim.

Back then, when she first found out about his hobby, she decided to ignore it especially when she was Cian’s twin sister so she had never thought that her brother could actually do something so outrageous. She refused to believe it. That was until the day they moved to another country.

(Flashback)

Their father, Bai Kai, had forced them for the sake of their safety against Bai Keran. They found out that their grandfather was out for a hunt on them so their father didn’t have a choice but to step in. Despite to her brother’s dismay, they didn’t have a choice to flee the country.

Upon their arrival at their new home in the States, she accidentally saw a box of photos while unpacking. They were photos of a high school girl. Most of them were stolen shots. “Huh?” She furrowed her brows in confusion as she found the girl so familiar. She was sure that she had seen this girl somewhere.

Before could even recall who the girl was and even get a glimpse of the worse photos, her twin brother caught her.

“What are you doing with my stuff?” Startled, she turned around to face her brother with wide eyes while holding a picture in her hand.

“I told you that I don’t need your help to unpack my things.” Cian was calm despite being caught. He cast his eyes at the box in front of her. “Ah… My sister caught me…”

“What’s the meaning of this, Cian?” She inquired. She would be lying if she said that she wasn’t scared of her brother at that moment. She even didn’t know why fear was creeping in her. Her heart was racing like crazy and she was covered with cold sweat. He took his time from answering her. When he took a step forward, Cecilia fought the urge to take a step backward. Her instincts were telling her that she should turn and run away. The dangerous glint in Cian’s eyes was enough warning for her but she didn’t do it.

Cian was her twin brother. Her BROTHER. Surely he wouldn’t hurt his own sister, right?

As her brother walked past her, she couldn’t stop herself from breathing out in relief. See?

“I never thought that I would end up falling for a girl like Mengmeng.”

Mengmeng?

Something clicked in her mind as she finally recalled the girl. She knew who Mengmeng was. They met her in a playground and stopped a man from kidnapping her. She was just 7 or 8 years old at that time!

“Are you a pedophile?!” She gasped in surprise. They were almost 2 decades apart!

“What? No! No!” He quickly denied it. “She was cute when she was a kid but I met her again when she was in high school.

Cecilia raised a brow as she crossed her arms as she looked at him in a dubious manner. “That doesn’t give you the right to stalk her like this.”

“Stalk her?” He blinked a few times in confusion. “I didn’t mean to stalk her. Also, I never planned on approaching her. I know that she’s younger than me after all.”

“See? You KNOW. That means that you’re FULLY AWARE,” she continued to emphasize those words.

“But I’m not attracted to children, or other younger girls her age,” Cian said in his defense.

Cecilia pursed her lips as she scrutinized him under her gaze. Being the naïve sister she was, she believed him. Cecilia thought that since they were thousands miles away from the mainland, her brother would be able to move on.

As they continued on with their lives, Cecilia was not able to monitor her brother especially when she started working. She was bound to find out more about his darkest secret since they were living under the same roof.

While she was doing the household chores, she found out about Cian’s hideous hobby. He may not be able to stalk Lu Mengjie anymore but he found new targets and all of them have ebony black hair. They may not be young girls but she saw disturbing photos, with each and one woman tied on the bed, naked. They were all bruised and wounded. Abused. All of them had photos of their dead bodies, their throats slashed open.

“Young miss, you are not allowed to be in the basement. Please leave.” Virus’ computerized voice was heard, startling her.

Not wanting to stay longer in the basement, she rushed out. Her body was trembling and her breathing was ragged. She never thought that her own brother would end up becoming the serial killer that the authorities were looking for!

Cecilia knew that she should call the police and have her brother locked down. How could he do such a thing? She could never imagine such a twisted person from her cheerful and kind brother. Her hands were shaking as she took her phone from the kitchen counter. Before she could even tap on the screen, it turned white and Virus’ blackfish icon appeared. She badly wanted to call for help but… Virus was not allowing her to do so. That AI must have reported it already to her brother. Ah shit! She shouldn’t have installed Virus on her phone!

Even if she was Cian’s sister, Cecilia knew that if she tried to contact anyone, she would be murdered by her own brother before the authorities arrived. He may be her brother but fear took over her body as she recalled the times when her brother suggested that she should dye her hair black. It was a good thing that she never listened! She couldn’t believe that she had shared a womb with him!
