We don't have to deliver the goods ourselves, they will come to pick them up." The thing that Annie was most grateful for today was that she had negotiated the business with the owner of the brothel before the terrible man went crazy, and did not let the business be delayed.

Otherwise, she would have to negotiate the business with her daughter in her current state!

Thinking of what happened in the brothel, Annie shuddered and her face began to turn pale. "It was so terrible. The police opened the wooden warehouse, and the man went crazy, waving a knife and slashing everywhere. When I fainted, he had already killed two people!"

    "Tick-tock--"The sound of dripping water sounded in the empty room, and a pair of eyes opened with difficulty after trembling several times.It hurts so much...Mia felt as if her head was hit by a hammer, and it hurt so much that it was about to explode. Not only did her head hurt, but her face also hurt.It was a burning pain, as if someone had drilled several holes in her face with thin iron flowers.The fact was similar. What pierced her face was not a thin piece of iron flower, but a serrated knife used to grind herbs.At this time, half of the serrations of the grinding knife were embedded in the girl's tender cheek, leaving a hideous and uneven scar, and blood dripped along the blade drop by drop, which looked particularly creepy in the silent house."Anne——" The bell at the door rang, and a woman with a basket in her hand walked in. Seeing the scene in front of her, she screamed, "Ah——"The basket fell to the ground, and the herbs inside were scattered around. Perry ran out,

"What happened?"Annie was unconscious, her hands and feet were hanging unnaturally, and Perry had a blank face like a wandering soul, which looked a little strange."………………Let's check Mrs. Colette's foot injury first." Derek looked exhausted, and after putting Annie down, he sat down to catch his breath.At this time, Mia noticed that the clothes on his arm that was blocked by Annie were stained with blood.Looking at his tired expression, she decided to take care of Annie's legs first.Lifting Annie's skirt, she saw that Annie's ankle was swollen so much that she could hardly take off her shoes, and her calves were also swollen.* : "......."I don't know what happened.
