Chapter 6

"You say you're right, killing is illegal and indeed not good."

Hearing me say this, hope ignited in Holt's eyes.

"But as you said, you won't be sentenced for many years. So what am I supposed to do? There are so many innocent victims, and my own sister died by your hand. Surely you can't expect me to be kind and forgiving?"

The smile froze on Holt's face. "Your sister?"

"Crystal was my little sister."

"That's not right. She was clearly an orphan who was adopted. How could she possibly have such a wealthy sister like you?"

"My sister was not an orphan. When we were young, we went to an amusement park and got separated. Security footage showed she was taken away in a car, and we never found her again. My parents were devastated, crying every day, and eventually passed away one after another."

Recalling this, I felt a bit dazed. "By the time I got news of my sister again, it was already about her death. If it weren't for you people, our family would have been happy."
