The next day, Stan stood straight in the police station, staring at his foot. He was so nervous that he didn't dare to lift his head and glance at the policeman standing on the other side of the table. He bit his lips as he tried not to tremble under the man's intense glare.
Shane snickered. "You're really acting like a girl. The officer hasn't said a word."
Stan got furious after hearing that. "Wh-Who told you I'm a girl?! Can't I tremble out of anger?"
"Sure~"
"You-"
"Why are you standing in a daze, little girl?" The officer finally opened his mouth after glaring at her for a minute.
It seed Rose was already the criminal who had killed all those people in the eyes of this person. Stan lowered his head and decided not to say a word. He knew that even if he tried to make the officer realise that he wasn't the one, given the evidence from the security caras, the police wouldn't agree. Things might end up getting worse.
Wasn't it better to stay entirely and see how things unfold?
In any case, he wasn't Rose, so he didn't have any attachnt to this world anymore, especially after officially becoming a villain in the eyes of the world.
A picture of a certain blond girl appeared in his eyes at this mont, making him blush a little.
Okay, there was one exception, but it was only because he wanted Alia as his sister! Nothing more!
Shane narrowed his eyes while observing his host's ntal condition. He sighed realising what exactly his host might be thinking about.
If Alia was really the main villain, his host's heart might be broken for the second ti. He hoped Stan would be mature enough this ti.
The officer suddenly leaned forward and glared at the girl. "Why did you kill them?"
"W-Who?"
"All those people? Why?"
"I-I didn't!" Stan raised his head and stared at the person innocently.
He had wanted to say that he hadn't done anything. His expression also said the sa, but the officer didn't seem to believe anything like that. He had seen many people pretending innocent when they were the biggest criminals.
The police officer even sneered and said, "Good, good. Your acting is really good! I give you three minutes to confess. After that, we'll start torturing you."
Stan got really scared now. "System, should I just confess the things I never did?"
"And what? You want to waste my efforts?" Shane wanted to glare at soone, but he couldn't. "Just wait a bit. Marvin didn't just keep an eye on you for nothing. He might co here and save you a***, and after that, we need to get you killed."
"Just like that?" Stan was surprised to hear that.
Were they leaving already? The teenager finally realised that the mission was about to finish as he blinked. He didn't know what to say at the mont.
He had been hell-bent on making a wish earlier, but now, he wasn't sure anymore. After entering this world, he realised what real suffering really ant. What he faced when he was still alive wasn't worth anything.
It was just puppy love, nothing else. Why should he waste his dear life because of sothing so small? He would get many girls in the future. He should instead be optimistic!
A smile blossod on his lips. "System, thank you!"
Shane was stupefied. He hadn't been a system for long, but he had never heard a host thanking his system when the mission was being fulfilled. The corners of his lips lifted slightly.
This was the first ti Shane smiled after what had happened to him in the institute.
He opened his mouth and said, "You're welco. Host, let's wish our paths crossed again in the future."
Just as they talked, a certain protagonist entered the police station in a hurry, wearing his regular robes. He didn't enter with his hero's identity. So no one except Stan and Shane knew who this person really was and why even he had co here.
"Officer, I have sothing to say."
The officer frowned as a displeased expression appeared on his face. "Who told you to enter without permission? Guards! Kick him out!"
"I have evidence which can prove who the real culprit is!"
Everyone, including Stan, raised their brows. They were all shocked.
Up until now, everyone considered Rose the main villain because all the security caras showed that she had purchased those robes and even walked deliberately into the garden, standing in the middle in a daze.
Her behavior was undoubtedly suspicious. So the officer didn't think twice before putting up the bla. To be honest, even the officer was under pressure and wanted to close this file as soon as possible.
But he didn't think twists and turns would arrive too soon!
His eyes went sharp as he nodded. "Show it to ."
Marvin gave the girl a quick glance and said, "As the girl said, she's innocent. The real culprit hid in the shadows and destroyed everything, blaming it all on this girl."
"You know what you're saying, right?" The officer frowned as he glanced at the papers.
His expression instantly changed. He continued to flip the file.
Marvin explained. "I was lucky enough to find security caras in the alleys. Although they weren't working properly, I managed to find clues from broken pictures. Please, have a look."
The officer was silent as he flipped through the screenshot of the security cara. His expression turned grave.
Stan couldn't help himself anymore. "Real villain was caught?"
Shane rolled his eyes. "Of course. You're the only stupid guy who couldn't realise it at first glance."
"Who's it then?"
"You'll realise it soon."
Stan wanted to ask more, but then he heard Marvin say. "I even brought the person with . You can interrogate her all you want."
"Her?" Stan opened his mouth and blurted.
Marvin just glanced at her as his eyes filled with sympathy and another emotion Stan couldn't read. But that stare gave him goosebumps.
Sure enough, he still wasn't used to being stared at by this person!
After a while, the officer put down the file and he said, "Bring the culprit."
Stan was surprised after seeing the changes on the officer's face. He was also curious about what exactly it was that Marvin showed. He leaned over and glanced at the opened file.
There was a familiar alley beside the construction building. The alley was dark, and filled with garbage. Behind a can, a girl was changing her robes as she threw the man's clothes into the dustbin. Then she used her firepower to light it up.
Smoke rose in the air as it brightened up the girl's face.
Three pictures were enough to show who the real culprit was! Stan stared at the page with his eyes wide opened.
He finally opened his mouth. `"No…. That's not possible. How can it be Alia….?" then he paused as if he suddenly realized sothing. "System, you knew it was her and didn't tell ?"
"Would you have reacted naturally if I had told you earlier?" Shane retorted.
"I take back my thanks." Stan gritted his teeth. "Do you enjoy treating like this?"
Shane shrugged. "Well, I'm a masochist."
Stan had never seen a person, nope, a system so shaless. He decided to ignore the thing in his mind and focus on the task at hand.
The officer glanced in his direction with a look of sympathy. He sighed and patted his shoulders.
"Girl, you should take care."
Stan didn't look at Marvin and only stared at the page in shock. Until morning, he had thought that Alia could be the best sister in the world. But who would have thought he would end up receiving such a huge shock in a short ti?
"You-" Marvin had just opened his mouth when a girl's scream echoed in the background.
"AHHHHH LEAVE ALONE, YOU B*STARDS!!!!!!!"
Stan realised who it was clearly. He glanced at that direction as his face turned pale. At this mont, Marvin walked over and put his arms around the girl.
"No, why is this person hugging ?" Stan felt goosebumps in his body again.
He hurried away a little, maintaining a distance. Marvin pretended not to see as he pulled her closer.
By this ti, Alia was brought inside the police station. She glanced at Rose and the man standing beside rose. She imdiately understood what was going on as she let out a chuckle. Her deanor instantly changed from that of a mischievous young lady to a ruthless and cruel person.
She raised her chin. "Rose, you're so naive and easy to lead around the nose."
Marvin's hands tightened around the girl's shoulders. "Why? Why put your bla on her? Why kill so many people?"
"You ask why?" Alia walked closer as she leaned toward the man. "Because I like killing people."
