Chapter 47: Knock Knock, Detective

"And with that… I wish you the best of luck with your life," Mr.L nodded at Anna and Leon and walked out of the room after saying, "Thank you for your time."

'He didn't say anything about the wife's testimony. That means he is planning something.' Leon glared at the door from where Mr.L left. 'Or else, why would he call us here to say thanks?'

"Are you going to kill him?" Anna asked in a low voice with a curious look on her face.

Leon turned his gaze from the door to Anna and glared at her.

"Are you going to kill me?" Anna asked with a flushed face.

"I will deal with you later," Leon uttered and thought, 'I have to go after the detective and kill him before he goes away.'

Anna pulled Leon's shirt and said in a low voice with a flushed face: "Are you going to leave me here?"

"..."

"At least, hit me hard one more time." Anna stood in front of Leon in a way that the camera couldn't see her. "Please?"

'This girl has some screw loose. I want to make her suffer, but hitting or beating her makes her feel good.'

Leon knew that if he wanted to make Anna suffer, then he had to do something she didn't like. Right now, she wanted Leon to hit her, and to make her suffer, he had to not hit her.

"Alright." Leon nodded to Anna and said, "Close your eyes and brace yourself."

Anna closed her eyes in excitement and eagerly waited for Leon to hit her. However, after waiting for a few seconds, she didn't receive any blow from Leon. When she opened her eyes, she saw Leon standing at the door, and he was showing his middle finger to Anna.

Leon then left to chase after Mr.L. Anna, however, moaned in pleasure.

Leon thought he would be able to make her suffer by not hitting her, but Anna was a masochist. She liked the suffering and pain. If Leon had hit her, she would have been happy, and even when he didn't hit her, she was thrilled.

Leon had no countermeasures for Anna.

Anna left the room and made her way to the washroom. She stood in front of the mirror and looked at her face.

After staring at the mirror for a while, she smirked and giggled. She washed her face with water and looked at her scarless face.

"Now that my healing capabilities have increased this much, I no longer need to use my make-up skills to cover them up," Anna muttered in a cheerful voice.

Anna was also a superhuman, but her only ability was super-healing.

Anna's mother was a doctor. Ever since Anna was three years old, her health condition got worse and worse. There was no cure for her disease, so her mother came up with her own cure.

Anna's mother had a friend who worked in the bioweapons field. She helped her create a serum that could heal anything and even regenerate body parts to certain extents.

Of course, it was illegal and risky, but Anna was going to die anyway, so her mother took a risk and injected the serum into Anna's body.

However, when Anna's father got to know about it, he divorced Anna's mother, and he took custody of Anna. Anna kept in touch with her mother, and she was close to her.

After Anna grew up, she noticed her wounds healed faster than others. Ever since then, she slowly started to injure herself to check her healing ability.

When she talked about this with her mother, her mother confessed everything.

After knowing the fact that she wasn't an ordinary human, Anna learned the habit of harming herself in various ways. In that process, she became a masochist even before she could realize it.

Meanwhile, Leon chased Mr.L and saw him getting into his car. Mr.L was alone with no sign of other government officials nearby.

Leon had decided to kill Mr.L sooner or later, and this was the correct opportunity for Leon to kill Mr.L.

Leon took out his mask from his bag and changed his clothes to an old hoodie.

Leon knew this was a trap set by Mr.L to catch the real culprit, but it wouldn't be considered a trap if it fails.

After chasing Mr. L's car from the shadow, Leon jumped on the car and destroyed the engine by plunging a metal rod into the engine.

Then, he looked at Mr.L in the car and knocked on the glass shield. "Know know, detective."

Mr.L moved his hand and grabbed his gun, but Leon punched the glass and grabbed the gun.

"I heard you were looking for me, so I am here," Leon uttered in a sinister voice.

Mr.L grabbed something from his car and jumped out from the backseat.

Leon aimed the gun at Mr.L and fired it, but he missed the shot. Leon's hand was bleeding because he broke a bulletproof glass with his bare hands.

Leon fired more shots, but unfortunately, he missed them all because of his vision from the mask. On top of that, it was Leon's first time holding a gun, let alone firing it.

Leon threw the gun on the ground and tackled Mr.L from the back. They both fell to the ground along with the thing Mr.L was carrying.

It was a photo.

Leon punched Mr.L and kept punching him.

SHOT!

Suddenly, someone shot Leon from behind.

Leon looked back to see dozens of cops' cars had surrounded him, and all the officers were aiming the gun at him.

"Heh!" Mr.L smirked and said, "Thanks for letting them know by firing a gun."

Of course, Leon had the ability to super heal, but if he got shot dozens of times, then even his power wouldn't help him recover. A few fatal shots, like head, heart, stomach, neck, could easily kill Leon. He would die even before his body started healing the wound.

Leon filled his fists with sand and used it as a fog to run away.

When the fog was cleared, Leon was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did he go?!" The officers were baffled after seeing that.

However, Mr.L was worried about something else. He searched for the photo, but it wasn't there.

"He took it. He took my family photo with him…" Mr.L muttered with a shocked expression on his face.
