Revenge After Death (Michael and Stephanie) novel Chapter 408

It appeared that this serial killer had significantly impacted Peter's supposed genetic experiment. The motive of the serial murderer in killing Stephanie was to protest against Peter and those who supported human genetic modification.

"The wolf has a winning game when the shepherds quarrel," I said sternly.

At first, I was reluctant to expose Yasmin. However, her repeated attempts to harm me left me with no choice.

I threatened Yasmin by pulling her hair. "I'll see how you manage to escape this place without relying on any cheating devices. Did you lure us here on purpose just to kill me? You can attack me... But if you try to harm Steven, I won't hesitate to kill you."

A flicker of fear and shock crossed Yasmin's eyes. She uttered in a quivering voice, "You..."

She vehemently denied her thoughts. "No way, you can't be Stephanie. She's already dead..."

"I didn't intend to lure you here. Quinn..." Yasmin tried to say something but was interrupted before she could finish.

"Stephie!" Steven appeared behind me, searching for me.

I immediately let go of Yasmin and stood up. Turning around, I greeted him with a smile.

Steven rushed over in a panic and embraced me tightly. "I'm so relieved that you're alright."

"What happened over there?" I asked.

"There was a trap on the ground. Someone fell in and broke his leg," Steven explained softly.

I nodded. "Steven, do you find this amusement park familiar?"

He took a deep breath. "Yeah... It's a replica of the one in the orphanage."

"What's the murderer's purpose?" I asked.

Steven cast a sinister glance at Yasmin. "Punishment... Back then, there was a child named Benjamin White at the orphanage. He was bullied by them. One day, he was forcefully pushed out of a moving roller coaster. His legs were trapped in the machinery and broke."

He lost his legs and was sent to a school for the disabled. No one had heard from him since.

Yasmin instinctively looked away. "It was Howard and the others who bullied Benjamin."

"That's murder, Officer Landon. How are you going to punish them?" The strange voice screamed hysterically.

As I listened to Steven's heartbeat, an inexplicable pain surged through my heart. I couldn't help but wonder what kind of nightmare people like Steven and Simeon, who were incompatible with those demons, had experienced.

Steven lowered his head, and his gaze locked with mine. His eyes darted restlessly as he whispered, "Stephie... they're not innocent."

"Let's play hide-and-seek. You have 30 seconds to hide. But be warned, whoever is found... will die!" The eerie voice reverberated as the countdown started.

The man urged us all to hide. Without hesitation, Steven gripped my wrist and led me to take cover in the space under the carousel.

"Ten, nine, eight… Three, two, one... I'm coming out..."

Not far away, a stone wall opened. Ten people emerged wearing strange masks and holding chainsaws. With their strong arms, they looked like hired killers.

"Are you hiding well? Don't let me find you."
