Chapter 319: Let's Go to Hell Together

Blood, so much blood...

Bai Mo widened her eyes, her back pressed against the door.

What should she do? Hadn't Kong Nuo gone back with Lin Meixi? How could he suddenly come over with a knife?

No, now was not the time to think about those things; she had to quickly think of a way to escape danger.

Outside the door, Li Meng was still pounding on it, "Save me..., save me..."

That voice was growing weaker and weaker.

Bai Mo's hands trembled as she picked up her phone, dialed the emergency number, quickly reported the address, and then begged while crying, "He has already killed one person, please come quickly, I don't want to die yet!"

After hanging up the emergency call, she dialed Jiang Sinian.

If Jiang Sinian came over, he would definitely be able to intimidate that madman Kong Nuo.

He could take neighbors to the hospital and could also casually save stray kittens; even if they had broken up, he shouldn't just stand by and watch her die.

But when she dialed, it indicated that the line was busy.

He had blocked her phone number.

Bai Mo continued to call her aunt, "Aunt, Kong Nuo has come to our rental place again, and he has a knife, please come and save me!"

She even dialed Lin Meixi's number, which she had never called before.

At this moment, the door panel behind her suddenly shook violently; Bai Mo turned her head and was nearly scared to death.

She saw that Kong Nuo had used a kitchen knife to hack a crack into the door panel.

She dared not lean against the door anymore and pushed the bedside cabinet behind the door to block it; the two bedside cabinets weren't very heavy, and she wanted to pull the bed over, but even after using all her strength, she only managed to move the bed a tiny bit.

The door was hacked again and again; Bai Mo was terrified, and just as the door was being hacked until it wobbled by Kong Nuo, she finally heard the sound of police sirens ringing downstairs.

But it would still take a while for them to reach this ninth floor; Bai Mo knew she had to stall for time before they arrived.

She stopped pulling the bed and only dragged the large piece of wood from the head of the bed into the hallway leading to the door.

It was barely enough to shield her and create some space.

Kong Nuo had already kicked the door open and walked in; the two stacked bedside cabinets immediately toppled over.

At this moment, only that piece of headboard, over a meter long, separated them.

Kong Nuo looked at her with bloodshot eyes, "Big sister, are you disgusted with me now? Is that why you asked that woman to take me home?"

"I fed her sleeping pills; she won't be waking up for the next two days."

"Actually, I don't want to wake up either; there is nothing in this world worth lingering for, don't you think?"

"Come to hell with me, big sister." He made a gesture of invitation, looking exactly like a demon crawling out of the darkness.

"No!" Bai Mo shook her head, "I don't want to die. Didn't you always want to be with me before? I agree!"

If she had known Kong Nuo was this crazy, she would have agreed long ago.

Whatever about siblings or ethics, as long as he didn't kill her, everything was negotiable.

But the current Kong Nuo had already killed until his eyes were red and was completely unwilling to listen to her; he raised his knife and began hacking at the headboard blocking them.

Every time he hacked, Bai Mo's hands, which were holding the headboard, would shake, and she would scream.

Amidst these intermittent screams, the police finally arrived.

They quickly subdued Kong Nuo, who was about to hack at Bai Mo.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

Bai Mo collapsed directly onto the floor, clutching her chest; thank goodness...

"He wanted to kill me! Hurry and arrest him!" Bai Mo accused; she slowly pulled herself up by the wall, her mind turning to Li Meng.

"Outside, what happened to the girl outside?" She was momentarily afraid to step out of the bedroom and only asked the police officer who was taking photos for evidence.

The police officer did not yet understand the sequence of events and looked at her with sympathy and reassurance, "She is already gone, but don't be afraid, the perpetrator has been subdued by us."

Another gentle male police officer walked in, "You should rest well for now; we will take your statement in a while."

Bai Mo collapsed onto the floor again and nodded blankly.

"I know him; he is my high school classmate and also my half-brother."

"I don't know much about him going to prison last year."

"After he was released, he came to find me and expressed his feelings for me; I rejected him on the grounds of moral ethics."

"Today I ordered takeout, but I was applying a face mask in my room at the time, so I didn't hear it."

"I only heard the sound of the door opening, then it seemed like Li Meng and Kong Nuo were arguing about something, and then I heard Li Meng's scream; I was very scared at the time."

"I wanted to call the police, but I couldn't find my phone for a moment because I had never encountered such a thing and was very scared, boo-hoo..."

"No, I did not lock the door from the inside at that time; I did not lock Li Meng out."

"I heard Li Meng's screams and heard her lying at the door telling me not to come out, but I wanted to open the door to save her, yet I couldn't get the lock to open no matter what; perhaps it was broken."

"I had a very good relationship with Li Meng, otherwise we wouldn't have lived together as roommates for so long; she was very kind and often helped me."

"I beg you to severely punish the perpetrator and seek justice for Li Meng."

——

"The above is the content of the statement from the roommate, Bai Mo, regarding this murder case."

Li Meng's mother had red, swollen eyes, her throat feeling as heavy as if it were choked with blood, "Just this?"

"Yes, she fainted right after finishing."

"I doubt the authenticity of this statement; I hope you can investigate this Bai Mo thoroughly. Firstly, the perpetrator had feelings for her and was rejected, so he should have hated her; why would he kill my daughter?"

"Secondly, a normal person's first thought when encountering a life-threatening situation is to call for help; the scratch marks my daughter's fingernails left on that door panel can prove it. Why would the door lock suddenly break at that moment?"

"She is lying! She must be faking the faint too! I demand to see her!"

"But Bai Mo's family says that due to extreme shock, she is experiencing mental health issues and is currently unwilling to see anyone other than to cooperate with the police investigation."

Mother Li would not let her daughter die in vain like this; she wanted to seek justice for her daughter!

The murderer Kong Nuo certainly deserved to die, but this Bai Mo was not innocent either!

……

"Aunt, I'm so scared!" Bai Mo could no longer care about her aunt's body being dirty and hugged her waist tightly.

Shen Yuan hugged her into her arms, heart aching, "Don't be afraid, that damned wretch has already been arrested by the police. Since he killed someone this time, he can just wait to pay with his life!"

Fortunately, fortunately there was another girl in the room at the time, otherwise she was truly worried she would not have been able to see her niece.

Although that girl also had family and she sympathized with that girl's plight, fate was just like that.

Bai Mo asked with some hesitation, "Will he really be executed by firing squad?"

Kong Nuo absolutely could not be let out again, otherwise the next person to die would be her.

At this moment, the hospital room door was pushed open; it was two police officers handling the case, "Bai Mo, the deceased's family wants to meet with you to understand some information about the case."

"No!" Bai Mo refused directly, "My heart is racing right now, my physical condition is poor, I cannot meet them."

"I have already arrived!" A middle-aged woman walked out from behind the police officers.
