Chapter 138 - Open The Door (1/2)

Due to the dark bloody events embellishing the movie, Kaos actually felt so nervous he found breathing to be difficult the moment the scene shifted.

She’ll die! Kaos promptly concluded that if Mathilda was to return at this time, she will definitely end up dying.

Even though the people that massacred her family were law enforcers, those law enforcers were not followers of the principle of not killing the innocent. For their own interest, they will definitely kill Mathilda to silence this matter.

This was the darkness of human nature. Kaos was able to understand it. The darkness that emerged in this movie was much scarier than the villain in ‘Beauty and the Demon.’ It was also much more realistic.

Unfortunately, Kaos was unable to change the plot of the movie. He cannot warn that pitiful little girl.

All he could do was watch as the little girl walked toward home, a scene of death, with groceries she just brought.

At this moment, the camera deliberately closed up on Mathilda’s looks of anticipation. Furthermore, the motion of the movie even slowed down.

When the classical background music slowly started playing, the scene shifted again. The groceries Mathilda brought had appeared outside the hallway to her family’s apartment.

“She should be able to discover what’s going on. After all, Mathilda is the main female lead.”

“But, she’s already standing in the hallway!”

At this moment, Kaos had forgotten about breathing. He could also hear people whispering.

Unfortunately, the audiences in this performance hall were simply unable to provide a helping hand to Mathilda on the screen. The audiences seemed to have forgotten that they were merely watching a fictional story.

To the crowd’s despair, those law enforcers saw Mathilda. Mathilda’s eyes came into contact with the law enforcer standing guard outside her family’s apartment.

The young noble lady next to Kaos didn’t need her senior to help her cover her eyes. She was afraid to watch the upcoming scene and covered her own eyes.

Maybe she would only be arrested by them? Kaos’s ten fingers were interlocked together as he waited to see what would happen.

For this scene, Gallolei’s outstanding acting skills were brilliantly displayed.

When Mathilda discovered her family had been killed by the law enforcers, she pretended to know nothing about them in order to survive. Under the attentive gaze from the law enforcers, she walked past her family’s apartment and arrived before the door of her neighbor’s apartment, the hitman Léon’s apartment.

Apart from being completely stunned, Kaos was unable to find any other way to describe his current emotions.

Mathilda began to sob quiet tears as she pressed on Léon’s doorbell nonstop, begging him to open the door. The impression that scene left behind in the audiences’ hearts far surpassed all those gorgeous characters in stage plays.

That little girl was real. She was so very helpless. At this moment, everyone wanted to extend a helping hand to her.

“Open the door! You’re a hitman, you’re not afraid of killing people, so why are you afraid of opening the door?! C’mon! Open the door!”

While Léon was hesitating, Kaos could hear the soft screams from the young girl sitting beside him.

But, Kaos knew that in a situation like this, the truly cold-blooded assassins would instead choose the preservation of their own safety and disregard a stranger’s cry for help.

If Léon was to open the door, it would be equivalent to saying goodbye to his former life.

But, after repeated hesitations, the demon that was living in disguise in Squirrel Street acted with much kinder heart than the human law enforcers and opened the door.

To Mathilda, Léon’s action was akin to a bright light appearing before her eyes. The demon saved the pitiful little girl from a bunch of ruthless human law enforcers.

Kaos heaved a sigh of relief and leaned back onto his chair… The young noble girl seated near him was so happy by the scene that there were tears in her eyes.

“That is truly lamentable.”
