Mo Chou reached the table and sat down. Coincidentally, her chair was right beside the politician.
This time her plan was to get the politician to take her somewhere outside the ball.
Mo Chou first started flattering the politician and when he looked pleased, she downright started flirting with him.
After a while of flirting with each other the politician asked her if she would like to go to his place with him.
Mo Chou agreed with him and they left the ball. Mo Chou had already informed her chauffeur so she directly hopped on the politician's car.
They stopped at a famous hotel and took the lift to the presidential suite.
The whole time Mo Chou had her mask on.
When they reached the suite, the politician tried to pounce on Mo Chou right away but she evaded him.
"Are you feeling shy now? Don't worry and come to me and I will show you a good time and why don't you take your mask off too" said the politician.
"Ha!" scoffed Mo Chou and took off her mask "I'll have a good time alright".
The politician was momentarily blinded by her beauty and before he knew what was happening, he was kicked in the stomach. Mo Chou dragged over a chair and thrust him on it.
Mo Chou taught him a good 'lesson' for a while. She had various unique ways to make him suffer.
After she was satisfied toying with him, Mo Chou finished him off.
She then proceeded to change her looks by detaching the long skirt from the gown and applying makeup.
In a few moments she had managed to completely transform herself.
She then went straight out of the hotel as if she had not just murdered someone.

Lu Jinhai left the ball right after Mo Chou.
At first he was contemplating whether he should follow them but he abandoned the idea.
He was frustrated when Mo Chou started flirting with an old man and even left the ball together with him.
He wanted to go ahead and stop them but he eventually gave up.
At first it was amusing but now it was only infuriating. He shouldn't interfere since it was none of his business anyway.
So although he was frustrated, he just went back to his house. Huo Zhai was baffled seeing his boss's mood swings.
Lu Jinhai arrived at his house shortly after and took a shower.
He poured himself some wine and turned the tv on while drying his hair.
On the tv, the news reporter was reporting about some politician who was murdered today.
Apparently the politician was found dead in the presidential suite of some prestigious hotel and the prime suspect was missing.
The politician had been stabbed several times and tortured brutally before he died.
Lu Jinhai yawned and found it boring but when he saw the politician's face he was shocked.
It was the same man who was with Mo Chou. Lu Jinhai's lips curled up, he didn't know why but he felt better.
He took out his phone and texted Mo Chou's number which he had gotten from his men.
***
Meanwhile Mo Chou who had gotten home and was just about to sleep when she suddenly got a text message from a random number.
It just said 'good night'.
Mo Chou wondered who the weirdo was who sent her a good night text in the middle of the night.
She was quite sleepy so she gave up thinking and just slept.

The next day at university, everyone was discussing the murder case. It was a pretty big news since the man was from a powerful family and was a politician himself.
The man was tortured brutally too and when the students saw the crime scene , they got shivers down their spine.
Everyone was fearful since the man got murdered in a place with tight security and the murderer was still walking among them.
The authorities had started investigating the guests to the ball but it was still a dead end.
Mo Chou arrived at her first class and sat down on her seat.
She was ignoring Lu Jinhai who was blatantly staring at her.
After staring for a while Lu Jinhai spoke up "Did you hear about the murder case?" "Yeah! I heard about it, so what?"
"I'm so scared," said Lu Jinhai, inching towards Mo Chou . He casually put his arm around her shoulders.
"What's there to be scared about?" scoffed Mo Chou.
Just as Lu Jinhai was about to say something , the teacher entered the classroom and started the class.
Lu Jinhai just shut his mouth and stared at Mo Chou for the rest of the class .Mo Chou was annoyed but ignored him and focused on the class instead.
When the end of the class was nearing , the teacher said that he had an important announcement.
He said that there would be a welcome program and every student had to participate in it and that there would be a grand prize for the winning class.
