"Who was the person you assassinated?" Xilia continued to ask.
"Why are you asking this?" Luo'er asked calmly.
Although he remained calm, his mind couldn't quite make the connection at that moment. Despite his brain working overtime, he just couldn't wrap his head around it.
"Answer me!" Xilia demanded through gritted teeth.
"Honestly, I don't remember," Luo'er shrugged, answering truthfully.
"Fine, then I ask you," Xilia took a deep breath, and then pressed on, "was it Tarute Alofflin?"
She glared at Luo'er, her eyes as big as cowbells. Her breathing was fast, and in the cold weather, Luo'er could easily see the white breath puff from between her teeth and nostrils.
"Tarute..." The name struck Luo'er like lightning, bringing a sudden realization, "Tarute Alofflin...you are..."
