After that, regardless of what Dalton thinks, Owen directly takes out two bottles of water from the milky white plastic bag and hands one to Dalton.
Dalton first glances at Owen, and then slowly takes it. However, Dalton does not rush to unscrew it, and his gaze lands on the bag on the ground.
Just as Owen is about to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly hears Dalton say, "Why did you buy so many?"
Owen is almost choking on the water, and his hands tremble. Owen is at a loss how to answer. He just replies, "I'm afraid that we don't have enough to drink. It saves us the trouble to go to the shop repeatedly, which is obtrusive."
"Well, you're quite considerate." Dalton points at the water bottle on the ground and says, "Take them out and put them on the corner."
Owen is extremely reluctant, but he has no choice but to listen to Dalton. Samuel hasn't returned from the shack. Thus, Owen has to put the plastic bottles together as slowly as possible.
Just as he was about to take out more than half of it, a black shadow suddenly pressed down from behind him. Owen was a little distracted, but he didn't come to himself for a while and his neck was actually clenched by Dalton.
Dalton is relatively short. Owen is half a head taller than him. Although he is not as heavy as Dalton, Dalton has just injured his finger. Owen grabs Dalton's arm and turns him around.
Owen, a twenty-two-year-old boy, is very strong. Dalton notices that he cannot control Owen. When thinking that if Owen has gained the upper hand, it will be of no benefit to him, Dalton decides to gamble for his life. In a panic, he pulls out the fruit knife from his waist.
...
The dazzling knife is completely stuck into the flesh, as deep as the width of a palm.
The pain instantly assaults Owen so that he bends slightly. He looks down and sees that the knife has stabbed into his left abdomen. The bright red blood instantly dyes the front of his clothes. It sprays out from his blood vessels and quickly coagulates.
The desire to survive makes him tightly hold onto Dalton's hand. Unfortunately, this was far from the end...
In the next second, Dalton pulls out his knife and looks at the bloody wound. He does not panic at all. Instead, he stabs the knife into Owen's right abdomen again....
Dalton repeats mechanically. It's unknown how many times he stabs Owen. He may do it for a dozen times, or maybe two dozen. He doesn't stop until Owen lies in a pool of blood lifelessly.
Throughout, Owen doesn't even have time to let out a mournful cry.
Is Owen dead?
Seeing more and more blood flowing to the ground, Dalton is not panicked at all. Instead, he is filled with a kind of abnormal excitement coming from revenge.
He throws the knife to the corner of the wall. The originally smooth scabbard is now covered with a frightening red.
Dalton bends down and takes out one bottle of mineral water. He turns one side of the bottle to himself, noticing a white lens as big as a nail is stuck on the light blue plastic package.
He smiles. Then he tears off the camera and throws it to the side.
He raises his foot, and ruthlessly crushes it.
Owen's expression is completely different from before since he returns. He is too young to disguise, and his flaws attract Dalton's attention.
However, Dalton isn't sure until he sees the camera on the bottle of water. After he confirms, Owen is unable to survive.
Samuel says this in order to win Eunice's trust. Meanwhile, he hopes Eunice will speak for him if Dalton is arrested in the future. At that time, it may reduce his prison sentences.
Anyway, he will be caught. So, Samuel tries to reduce the sentence as much as possible.
Originally, he just plans to make some money and runs away. He doesn't want to spend the rest of his life in prison.
Hearing Samuel mentions the police, Eunice finally returns to her senses. She looks at Samuel and suddenly glances behind him. With a gloomy face, she says immediately, "I don't want to hear you speak. Get out!"
There is fear and vigilance in Eunice's eyes, but it is more of an indescribable warning.
Unfortunately, Samuel doesn't understand this 'prompt'. His attention is completely focused on Eunice. From what Eunice says, he thinks that she doesn't trust him. Then he continues, "What I said is the truth. I saw the police this morning. They have already arrived at the foot of the mountain. As long as you cooperate with me...."
"How should she cooperate with you?" Before Samuel finishes, a hoarse and horrible voice suddenly sounds behind him.
Samuel's body instantly stiffens like a rock. In the next second, he turns around as fast as he can. Unfortunately, even so, he is still too late....
Eunice watches Dalton inserts the bright knife into Samuel's chest. Dalton is short, so he has to raise his hand.
Eunice has never seen such an expression before in her life. Dalton's ferocious face is filled with terrifying cruelty. His eyes only reveal abnormal and inhumane pleasure.
Eunice sees Samuel collapse. Then, Dalton, on a pair of dusty sneakers, walks up to her....
