97 New Plan (2/2)
Nothing. The bathroom was empty aside from the one stall that was closed. The Police Officers already realised that they just wasted their times and put their weapons down. Just to make sure it was clear, they banged on the stall, calling out, ”Who is there?”
Just as they expected, everything was normal as the person in the toilet replied, ”What? Dude, it is taken, can't you see? I'm taking a shit. Go to another one” This made the people Police Officers feel like they were being played at by the fatty.
They already started thinking that he was some weeb who might have watched too many comics in his life and now is feeling like it's happening in real life. They all looked at him and saw beads of sweat forming on his forehead as he could also figure out how bad this was looking.
”This is not the same guy's voice… What if they left already? Yes! They definitely ran away! I'm not lying officers! They were here for sure! The lady had a sexy traditional dress with two katanas in her hands and the guy was only in his underwear with two gun holsters around his arms. Look at the floor, I dropped my soda when they aimed their weapons at me.” The fatty rumbled, trying everything to make the Police Officers believe him and even pointed at the black soda spilt on the floor.
Police Officers looked at the floor but their eyesight quickly moved from the soda towards two small red dots on the floor near the wall. They looked at each other and one nodded, crouching next to it to confirm it was blood.
When the fatty saw the blood, his face immediately brightened as he yelled happily, ”I told you! They probably fought and—” Too bad he was quickly interrupted as the Policeman shouted, ”Shut up! This might as well be the blood of someone who cut his finger on the beach. This is not enough evidence for us.”
The other two also agreed while proposing, ”Yes. If we call back-up for nothing, we will be scolded by the Chief. Let's just look around first before we jump into conclusions. They shouldn't have walked too far away.”
”Let's go.”
A few seconds after they walked away, an angry voice scolded inside the stall, ”Are you suicidal? You would die if I didn't move the sword away. It's so sharp it can cut metal but you pushed your neck against it, idiot.” It was Katherine who could still see Wuxing's smile despite getting wounded which immediately made her angry. She didn't mind the change of his voice it was a normal skill.
Wuxing clutched his neck, blood dripping through his fingers as he tried to stop the bleeding but seeing Katherine's angry expression, a smile was escaping from his lips without his permission.
”I thought you wanted to kill me anyway? Why did you pull it back?” Wuxing asked despite bleeding as if that didn't bother him.
Katherine thought he might as well find a way to bandage himself but seeing him not bothered, she didn't reach out to help, ”You were right. Before I decide to kill you, I need to learn your part of the story. I can feel it's not how they reported in the mission description.”
”That's good to hear. I knew I could trust you…” Wuxing replied weakly but there was still a smile planted on his face. It seems like he was getting weaker with each second as his face got pale as well.
For Katherine, Wuxing was just a stranger so there was no sympathy for him in her mind. Everyone was responsible for themselves in her opinion. If he didn't ask her for help, she wouldn't think of treating him and said instead, ”There was no need to run away from the Police. We are from the Seven Stars.”
Wuxing wanted to answer her seriously but then thought of a certain plan and teased, ”Oh, I didn't run away from them. I just wanted to be closer to a beauty like you. Such a small stall, many things can happ— Cough!” Just as he expected, before he finished, his stomach was hit but fortunately, he prepared himself for that.
”Tell me what happened,” Katherine ordered coldly, not bothered by his suffering. It was his fault for daring to tease her like that.
”Well… I wish I could tell you…” Wuxing spoke weakly before pausing as if he had very little strength. As he tried to finish the sentence, he started to stagger a bit, ”...but it seems it would have to wait…” Unfortunately, he only managed to say this little before he toppled forward without strength, his eyes rolling upwards before closing.
As only Katherine was in front of him, she had no other choice but to catch him else he would crash into her. Her hands pressed against his chest, trying to stabilize him but then his hand protecting his throat dropped limply as if he passed out and the droplets of blood started slowly travelling towards her hands.
It was quite unusual for Katherine to curse but today was her first time since ages, ”Damn.” Normally she would just kill him if he was someone else but she still wanted to learn the truth so that wasn't an option for her anymore.

She pushed him towards the wall and suddenly raised her leg up to his chest and kept him stable with it. Her now free hands reached downwards and Katherine cleanly cut two parts of her dress with her katana, shortening the length up to her knees while thinking hatefully, 'You owe me a new dress…'
