Steven looked at me.
"Stephie, do you wish it was me?" "No." I shook my head.
Regardless of the final goal, the methods were too extreme.
For somebody to use such methods to hurt others to achieve their goals... I didn't think that person would be somebody "good".
Steven held my hand and broughtto hide behind a truck. We took off the hazmat suits.
"If you don't want it to be me, then it won't be me." I looked at him in confusion.
"And if I wished it was you?" "Then I'll find the mastermind and replace him, becoming the person you wantto be," Steven answered seriously.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI smiled. He looked a little silly for how seriously he was taking it.
But he also intelligently answered my question.
Eason said Steven had IQ but no EQ. But in my opinion... Steven had a terrifyingly high IQ and EQ.
He just... used his IQ on others and all his EQ on me.
I sighed and walked up to him, giving him a back hug.
Exhausted, I said, "I'm so tired. Piggyback me." Steven piggybackedwith a smile and took us out of that place.
"Sir." I wasn't sure how long it took, but I fell asleep on Steven. When I woke up, Ewan had arrived along with many other people. He must've known that we weren't safe. Shocked, I asked Steven, "How did Ewan get here so quickly?" "Since Mr. Lincoln has been missing for days, I chere to look for the both of you because this was where his GPS location last appeared," explained Ewan. "Are Joel and the rest... okay?" I felt exhausted.
My adrenaline had keptgoing in the killing ginside the ruined building.
I had a hard fall on the staircase too. I was hungry and sleepy. My body felt exceptionally tired.
"They're all fine. Taylor has the worst injuries, but he survived. GenSociety took Yasmin, so she'll live.
Rachel's injuries aren't severe either," Ewan said assuringly. S "As for the rest, they just suffered sbruises." Hearing that, I relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.
Even in my sleep, I knew Steven continued to hold my hand. He never let go.
The truth was I knew that Steven might not be the mastermind behind the killing game.
But I was afraid that it would be him.
When I woke up, I found myself at a hospital back in Huma.
On the beds next to mine were Rachel, who was sobbing, as well as Michael, who was glaring at Steven.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Stephie!" Rachel said excitedly, noticing that I was awake.
"This is..." I frowned. I couldn't understand how I ended up in the hospital when I had just been asleep. Why did everyone look worried? "Stephie, you're finally awake." Rachel got off her bed and huggedtight.
"Where's Zion and the rest?" I patted Rachel on the back.
"Zion reported himself back to the police station. This case alerted the higher-ups, so everyone's really concerned about the case..."Rachel said softly. She seemed hesitant.
"I can't tell you too much. But you get it, right? The major higher-ups were alerted! I paused.
I understood what she meant. The mind had intended for it to lot of public attention. But in case it caused public panic, it hadn't been publicized yet. S The authorities would certainly interfere with the case.
And GenSociety must be in a panic now. S'a'*'h the FindNovn't website on Google to access Rong chapters of early and in the highest quality. "Was I... asleep for a long time?" I asked Steven, who immediately stood up to block Michael.
"It's been half a month..." Michael answered hurriedly, looking worried about me.
