Chapter 657
Will continues to ask,
"Was Franklin involved in Tobias's murders?"
"I had assumed he simply chose his friends poorly."
Hannibal says with regret, bowing his head slightly.
But Will feels somewhat guilty.
He steps forward and apologizes, saying,
"I'm sorry, I feel like I've dragged you into the mire as well."
As they speak,
the two share a smile.
Clearly,
at this moment, Hannibal has completely gained Will's trust.
He has even caused the latter to feel a great sense of guilt,
feeling that he shouldn't have let Hannibal, an otherwise innocent person, get involved in so many homicides.
It was unfair to him to begin with.
Will already had grievances regarding these brutal criminals and cases.
And now, the uninvolved Hannibal had been dragged into it.
Unknowingly,
Will's resentment toward Jack grows a little deeper in his heart.

【This... what is going on?!】
【Tobias finished killing someone... and actually ran to Hannibal's place?!】
【Could it be that he found out Hannibal betrayed him??】
【That shouldn't be it!】
【Who knows...】
【Maybe he just wanted to reminisce??】
【Or perhaps... he came to kill Hannibal??】
【Didn't expect him to run straight into Franklin...】
【Now he probably knows....】
【This is too bold, isn't it?? He killed two police officers and still has the nerve to come find Hannibal....】
【Is killing as simple as eating and drinking to him...】
【He completely disregards the police!!】
【It seems the police abroad aren't very effective...】
【With so many psychopaths, the police aren't effective either....】
【What a dire situation!】
Just as the countless viewers watch in astonishment,
Tobias's figure appears at the doorway.
And on his right ear, there is a gaping hole! Blood is dripping!
It is exactly the wound from the shot Will fired just moments ago!
Yet Tobias seems completely unbothered by this injury.
He came to find Hannibal without even attempting to stop the bleeding.
"Tobias!"
Franklin stands up abruptly, his face filled with disbelief and shock.
There is also a hint of panic at having his conversation interrupted.
Tobias steps forward and says,
"I've come to say goodbye, Franklin."
"What do you mean by goodbye??"
Franklin asks subconsciously.
Before the latter can answer, Franklin sees the ear in Tobias's hand and the large, shocking bloodstains!
"My God... is that your blood??"
"I just killed two people, and the police came to question me about the murders."
Tobias recounts what just happened with absolute indifference.
There isn't even a trace of panic on his face.
His tone is full of calm and matter-of-factness.
It is as calm as if he were describing what he had just eaten!
It is as if he were sharing a trivial, insignificant matter.
Opposite him,
Hannibal's expression remains as usual, calm as always.
But Franklin is unable to react.
It takes him a long time to digest what Tobias is saying.
He stammers,
"Then you must turn yourself in immediately!"
As he speaks,
Franklin finally thinks of the philosophy he wants to express:
"The situation has spiraled out of control, don't make things worse!"
"You still have a chance for rebirth! Everyone has a chance to turn over a new leaf!"
The naive Franklin begins to earnestly persuade Tobias.
His words are full of sincerity.
And from his perspective,
this is indeed Franklin's true inner thought.
He truly wants to persuade Tobias to turn himself in and turn over a new leaf!
And to the side,
Hannibal speaks up to interrupt him:
"Franklin, I want you to leave immediately."
"Stay right there, Franklin."
Before Hannibal can finish, Tobias retorts in a deep voice.
Franklin looks back and forth between the two, seemingly confused.
But he soon figures it out, or rather, he misinterprets the situation.
At this moment, he mistakenly believes Hannibal wants him to leave quickly, as Tobias is an extremely dangerous person who just admitted to killing people.
But Franklin still wants to make one last effort, hoping Tobias can change his mind.
"You've done terrible things, I know, you wish you hadn't done them, but you did."
"You can't change the facts, but the only thing you can change is your future life."
"Maybe you're just scared, maybe you feel all alone."
