Chapter 29: Fire Burns Sin, Punish the Heart!

~7 min read 1,324 words

Bang!

In an instant.

Esther made a move.

She rushed forward fiercely, took out a small knife from her skirt, and stabbed at Yulenka.

Yulenka panicked, but still reacted, and the spray paint and lighter in her hand were all turned on at this moment.

Whoosh!!

A short tongue of fire sprayed out.

Crackle!

A smell of burnt hair instantly permeated. However, Esther still rushed out against the tongue of fire. The flames scorched her hair, burned her makeup, and her skin instantly turned red and swollen. In the bright flames, she looked like a devil!

"Ah ah ah ah!!!"

The shrill scream destroyed everyone's reason.

Yulenka, in a panic, kept retreating, and the tongue of fire sprayed out again and again, trying to force Esther back.

But the more anxious she was, the less accurate she was.

The swaying tongue of fire ignited the curtains, and the bright yellow flames began to expand rapidly!

Seeing Esther getting closer and closer, Yulenka simply threw the things away and ran toward the door.

However...

A figure stood at the door at some point, looking at them indifferently, playing with a few fine needles in his hand. It was Louis.

He put away the fine needles, clapped his hands, stood at the door, and blocked everyone.

Emma, who had been trembling in the corner, immediately revealed a smile, like a peacock with its tail feathers shining, and came to Louis's side, looking at Esther and Yulenka with satisfaction.

Louis didn't care, just looked at the two indifferently, and glanced at Madison and Maria, who were in the dead corner of the corridor, wanting to leave but having weak legs.

He didn't expect these two to appear here, which was also a small trouble. But it didn't matter, they were just children.

In fact, he had been following Emma.

According to the original plan, after Emma lured her to a quiet place, Louis would come out to deal with it. The reason why he didn't appear all along was actually just wanting to watch the fight. As for whether Emma would be in danger?

It was also good to let her suffer a bit.

It was just that he really didn't expect Yulenka, an evil child, to appear here and become Esther's friend. There must have been some changes he didn't know about.

But it didn't matter. Anyway, they were all here now.

Let's deal with it slowly...

Yulenka didn't know Louis, but seeing Emma's attitude, and Esther, who was no longer chasing behind, she sensed the subtlety of the situation in front of her.

She seemed to be involved in big trouble.

Louis ignored her and looked at Esther after looking at her twice.

Esther was also looking at Louis. At this moment, she had understood everything.

She knew there was something strange about Louis, such as her inexplicable coma that night, but in the final analysis, Louis didn't show malice toward her, and she couldn't see anything special about his mind.

Therefore, she had always ignored him a bit, putting more attention on Emma, who was fighting wits and courage with her.

"I didn't expect to underestimate you. Emma's backer would actually be you..."

"Deliberately luring me out, just wanting to deal with me."

"But why?"

Yulenka, who was standing quietly and lowering her sense of existence, couldn't help but look at Esther.

How come it felt a bit familiar?

Facing Esther's question, Louis didn't answer. He was not a villain and didn't have the habit of explaining to dying people, especially this stupid question.

He looked at Esther, who was already in a mess, with contempt, and blew a breath lightly.

Whoosh~

In the blink of an eye.

Thick flames ignited the air out of thin air, spraying onto Esther like a pillar of fire.

"Ah ah ah ah!!!"

Esther, who didn't expect Louis to make a sudden move, took this flame firmly. The flame seemed to contain grease, and in an instant, it burned all over her body. The severe pain brought by burning skin made her start to scream, wail, and roll on the ground.

Crackle! Crackle!

The grease contained in the skin even made a sound.

Yulenka, as well as Madison and Maria in the dead corner of the corridor, couldn't help but have weak legs at this moment, looking at Louis in horror, as if looking at the devil in a bedtime story.

Even Emma, who was fox-like and tiger-like beside Louis, pursed her lips, a bit nervous.

To be honest, she was a bit afraid that Louis would burn her together.

Louis looked at the flames that had burned from the window to the vicinity of the tables and chairs, nodded, and poured a bottle of grease into the tables and chairs. The fire rose instantly!

Destroying the corpse and erasing the traces must be done well.

"Louis! Louis!"

"Don't kill me, don't kill me..."

"Emma, save me, please save me, I am... your sister..."

"Louis... I am your sister... Dad will... be sad..."

Esther, who was wailing and rolling on the ground, called out with a young voice, her eyes full of pleading looking at Emma and Louis.

At this moment, at first glance, he and Emma looked like the villains instead.

Louis frowned, seeing this guy still pretending until now, and felt a bit disgusted.

An adult, using a child's body, pretending to be weak, pitiful, using sympathy, calling herself sister, calling herself Dad and Mom, sister and brother...

Louis looked at Emma, his eyes also glanced at Madison and Maria, and said slowly, "Emma, do you know what a dwarf is?"

Before Emma could answer, Louis turned his head back, looking at Esther with a cold smile, "Congenital hormonal disorder, which makes the body unable to grow, but the wear of teeth doesn't change, so she always wears braces."

At this moment, Emma had already understood, looking at Esther with surprise and astonishment.

Louis was still talking eloquently.

"Because of physical reasons, she always suffers more pressure, so her spirit is prone to problems. The Saarne Institution is such a hospital. In the hospital, because the manic spirit causes her to launch attacks, or even self-harm, she can only use restraint straps, which leads to scars on her wrists and neck, and she needs to wear black ribbons to cover them."

Yulenka also understood at this time. However, she was actually more afraid of this cold and strange Louis in front of her now.

And, they were actually siblings?!

That... hiss...

I don't know why, she suddenly didn't want her mother to marry David.

"Oh right, a dwarf doesn't mean eternal youth. She will still age. A child's body, an adult's wrinkles, will only make her look uglier. So, she learned extremely high-level makeup skills, so that she can maintain a child's face, pretend to be cute in front of everyone, shamelessly calling Dad and Mom, sister and brother..."

Esther, who was rolling on the ground, should have been angry and resentful at this moment, but listening to Louis's somewhat blurry voice in her ear, she actually felt a trace of fear.

But Louis hadn't stopped yet. "Oh right, I checked. She was adopted before, but that family was wiped out in a big fire shortly after, and she returned to the orphanage again. Also, do you know why she wants to be adopted?"

Emma, who had recalled the picture of the burning castle under the purple light, subconsciously looked up at Louis.

"Because she is... in terms of sex..."

Before he finished speaking.

Esther seemed to have been touched by some vital point, and her emotions became intense, even briefly suppressing the pain of the flames burning her body: "Don't say it! Don't say it!!"

At this time.

Bang!

The flames had spread to the classroom wall, and large pieces of wall skin began to fall, sparks splashing.
