Chapter 20 - You are insane (1/2)
”Everything was special about her,” Ok Min Ji uses a matter of fact tone. ”She was unique. She could see through things easily. She was witty. There was one time when...”
The conversation has been going nowhere. Ok Min Ji has been acting like a love fool who is recalling her first love. Ahn Hana is not here for that. To Ok Min Ji, Noe Kyung-Hee is the epitome of perfection. Ahn Hana's headache intensifies. She suddenly recalls Do Sejin at Ok Min Ji's house. She kicks away the memory somewhere deep in her head. Right now, she is working.
Noe Kyung-Hee seems like someone who is either too smart or too naive. Ahn Hana stabs the potato and eats it. She needs to eat and be strong. She needs to finish this case in the next hearing.
”Did she like reading?” Ahn Hana gets back to business. If she let Ok Min Ji talk about Noe Kyung-Hee, they will spend the night at the restaurant. Ahn Hana has no such intention. She wants to sleep. She has different plans tomorrow. There are more murder locations to visit.
”Yes.” Oh Min Ji has a faint smile on her lips. ”She would read poetries to me. In her confession letter, she used one of the poems from her favorite book to describe how I looked to her. She even wrote my initials on the page.”
”Did she like reading novels? Mystery novels about murders?” Usually, teenagers are interested in murder mysteries that offer them thrills.
”Yes, she liked reading them. Her room is full of books. She also liked reading romance and non-fiction. She was the type who would pick up novels randomly from the library with her eyes closed.” Ok Min Ji recalls. ”She liked to go to the city library whenever she was free.”
Ahn Hana asks her the final question. ”What's the name of that poetry book?”
”The Ocean In The Sky.”

Jung Kwang-Soo opens the door. ”Why are you here, Hana?”
”Did you have a good sleep?” Ahn Hana steps inside casually, ignoring that Jung Kwang-Soo is nȧkėd. His ċȯċk's tip is leaking something white. He must have been in the middle of something. When he is not?
Jung Kwang-Soo looks down at his fallen brother. The hardon has completely disappeared. How could he remain hard in this situation? He feels like cursing someone to death.
”Do you think that I was sleeping?” He crosses his arms. ”Hana, are you lonely? If you are, go to your playboy.”
Ahn Hana glares at him. ”How long?”
”It is my job to be nosy about your life.” He smirks at him. ”I was curious why you would sleep with someone like him when you have me. You hate playboys. But then, fuċkɨnġ younger men must be tempting after your screwed up relationship with Ong Han Bin.”
She wants to feed him to the wolves. Even this idiot has been aware of that boy's real identity.
”Oh!” He covers his mouth with his hand in shock when a realization hits him ”Don't tell me you were fooled by him? Hana, how did you fall into his trap?”
”I am one step away from becoming a killer.” She sits down on her couch. ”Jung Kwang-soo, you are number one on my hit list. I want to peel your skin layer by layer and hear you beg for my mercy.”
”I always knew that you were a psychopath.” He sits next to her, looking smug. ”To be able to fool someone like you, he must be good. I have to give him some credit. What will you do now?”
”I will give you ten minutes to finish whatever you were doing. Pack some clothes for you and me. We are going on a trip.”
Jung Kwang-soo wants to know what she will do to the boy. However, this woman is interested in something else. Resolving a murder case is more important than anything else. He has to suffer because of her passion for her cases.
