Chereads / THE TALE OF THE NINE TAILED / Chapter 5 - MEETING (2)

Chapter 5 - MEETING (2)

Told him that she has seen him three times: on the wedding , on the bus and hr looking for victim.

"Did you kill them? Or did you come to kill her now?"

she mockingly asked him without hesitation.

He eyes were indifferent but a sly smile was playing on his lips which made him look utterly attractive,

" I don't know about others but I just found someone whom I want to kill"

Ji-ah lips twitched in anger, how dare he mock her! but she maintained her calm and indifferent tone

"Is it so?... Then why were you asking for the victim earlier?"

" Miss, you shouldn't falsely accuse an innocent man when you have no evidence to prove..."

(A/N: innocent! ! who? this man? ppfft)

Ji-ah was stunned by his performance... he could surely go for acting,

"Then, I am sorry, for 'falsely' accusing you without evidence"

Ji-ah didn't even mean any of those words.

He stands up and prepare to walk away,

Ji-ah tosses her bag to him and tells him to take her business card . He tosses it right back at her,

" I hope we never meet again... miss by the way I already have a girlfriend so I hope you would respect that"

Yeon leaves without bothering to look back .

Ji-ah calls Jae-hwan and says that she's got Yeon's fingerprint.

(A/N: Hehe....she's smart)

In the car, shin joo was waiting for Yeon and as he comes they prepare to leave

" Yeon... It is fate that you ran again to the girl whom you saved 20 years ago... isn't it?"

Yeon was grumpy about Shin-joo's remarks

" And also , she looks a lot like your past love..."

"hya~ you should quit consulting for that girls' show"

Shin- joo bluntly refused

"Why should I ?"

Besides, Yeon loves "Search for Urban Myths" and even left a comment saying the grim reaper's outfit was wrong.

Later that night in the hospital

Soo-young hears the clacking of heels in the corridor. The door slides open, and she sees a pair of high-heeled boots.

'Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!'

Next morning Ji-ah and detective baek were called to hospital as she was her temporary guardian after the accident, and detective baek was handling the case.

When she arrived, she saw a frightened Soo-young, Ji-ah berated Detective Baek for leaving her alone. They still found no traces of the intruder, but Soo-young was so frightened that Ji-ah took her home for the night.

_______

After arriving at Ji-ah's place

" Eonii, I am sorry for troubling you so much.."

Ji-ah turned and saw soo young, she was about to tear up but then Ji-ah consoled her

" eonii, where is your family?"

"I live alone"

"..."

Ji-ah didn't saw a evil glint in soo young's eyes after hearing that..

________

Meanwhile in hospital

A tall figure and well built figure was approaching towards the hospital room o

to find the victim,Soo-young

he learns that she was discharged and founds a note from Ji-ah. Whatever she wrote makes him frustratedly hurry out from the hospital.

Whereas, Ji-ah gives a seperate room for soo- young to sleep.

Ji-ah was awakened by Soo-young creepily standing over her. She suddenly claims to remember what happened that night. She acts distressed

"There were only s-seven people on the bus, I was listening to music so I didn't heard anything, E-Everyone died, and th-that person tried to kill m-me!"

Ji-ah comforts her, making her secretly smile.. It was she who tried to kill the passangers.

The night of the bus accident

A teenage girl was smiling menacingly after the lights went out , her one eye glowed .

She snaped two passengers' necks and killed them. Yeon fought with "him" in the bus and hurt himself , when Ji-ah saw him dripping blood he was severely hurt.

----------

Back to now

'Soo-young's' hands trembled and suddenly she slides off the glass from the table and it breaks. As Ji-ah picks up the pieces,

"Where were you going that night?"

Soo young was stunned by this sudden question

"Ah, you know, don't you?''

" Ummm....I was returning home from my school.''

''But there is no village after the fox ridge, that bus doesn't goes the place where you wanted to go.''

Ji-ah stands and hold a piece of glass against Soo-young's neck. Soo-young drops the act and smiles maniacally

"When did you figured it out..'eonii' ?"

"The moment when I saw you, you said that u were tried to kill but there were no defensive wounds an 'accident victim' should have"

"After all , you are not so dumb, and I thought that I got you"

Soo-young smirks and transforms into Rang. Ji-ah backed away, terrified,

"What did you do to soo-young?"

"hmm...I ate her"

As Rang was busy talking Ji-ah stabbed him in the shoulder with the piece of glass.

He yanked it out and asks jokingly if she thought that would hurt him.

Ji-ah suddenly became calm and composed , she stood there and said

"I am using myself as a bait.."
