The Rhyme of the Depositary
095 - SEASON 2
I should have known it was going to happen like this. He got out of the taxi at night in front of Alice's house and limped towards the back gate. Please have the back gate key. He can enter and exit freely. That's one of the reasons why he can get out of Alice's house whenever he wants. For him, this house was a place that he could leave easily, in contrast to other employees who had to ask William's permission first.
He should have done something similar. But since he took Susan's place, Sila has been freer than ever. He gained the confidence to shop and provide food supplies. So that he is allowed to go out at any time. That's why he was given the private key of the back gate.
Unfortunately, he had misused the trust Alice had given him. He betrayed his own master. If Sila died under these circumstances, she was sure that hell would welcome her.
Sila is a woman who was raised in a fairly religious environment. From childhood he was introduced to heaven, hell, demons, and angels. He knew the consequences of every act of evil were the torment of hellfire.
It's just that in the process, often money is a severe temptation. Please be manipulated by momentary luxury. As a result, he slipped on a dirty act that he himself did not like.
But the rice has become porridge. It was too late for him to back off. His actions were like an oath he made to the devil. He could not pull it and could only devour his soul slowly.
Please enter the gate and immediately walk to his back room. The night is late. The clock shows at 23:15 Manhattan time. Almost everyone must be asleep by now.
When he arrived in the hallway and passed through the middle room, suddenly the room lights turned on suddenly. William stood looking at Sila in full search. Beside her, there was Alice and Jasmine as well. They all looked at Sila like Sila had just had a horn on her head.
"Where are you from?" ask William sharply.
"What happened to you, please?" Alice asked hysterically. He looked at Sila's chaotic state. His face was covered in bruises, his clothes were torn apart, traces of dried blood were everywhere.
Sila who was aware of this state could only grimace a little. Every move he made was painful. He has to be extra careful about doing things.
"I was intending to take care of some personal business and shopping. He was attacked by robbers in the street. I'm lucky to be safe, ma'am. I just suffered a little minor injury."
The real thing happened was that he was beaten to death by Luiz's bodyguards and left unconscious for hours. After realizing it, he was not taken care of at all and had to groan alone. Only when night fell did Luiz expel Sila from her residence. He gave another new tugs that were quite heavy. The rewards are huge. But if Sila fails, she will only be beaten even worse by Luiz.
Please wish to curse in the heart. But he currently had no choice but to obey what the devil wanted. What he had obtained today had already become quite a deep learning for him.
"Oh my God, how did you get to be like this? Why didn't you report to the police? Why didn't you call me?" Alice leaned on Sila with many questions. Making Sila feel more guilty every time. My God, he has betrayed people as good as Alice.
"I don't want to escalate the problem, ma'am. What matters is that I survived. That's it." Please smile little. He felt unable to stand for longer. His strength is getting thinner all the time. Weakly, he sat on the floor. His whole body shook violently.
Alice immediately caught him and realized how severe Sila was. This woman needs to be taken to the hospital for intensive care. Alice told Willam to call the ambulance as soon as possible.
William's face does not seem to like doing what Alice has to do. He was forced to pick up the phone and call an ambulance. After that, without much words, both William and Jasmine left Alice alone with Sila.
"Truly stupid!" jasmine cursed before finally walking towards the room and choosing to rest.
Alice stared at Jasmine's departure in confusion.
A fool? Who is stupid? What does Jasmine mean by all this? Sometimes she behaves strangely without any explanation.
…
Jasmine sat leaning against the head of the bed. He was thinking about the condition of Sila that he saw about half an hour ago.
Jasmine had placed suspicion on Sila long before this. His seemingly secretive behavior, his hasty actions, and other signs made him even more convinced by his judgment.
Jasmine had originally intended to hide her suspicions. But what Sila did was too conspicuous. The woman was not used to committing crimes so once she did, her body gesture displayed all the things that others could catch. William also suspected her.
It's just that, out of all of Sila's overly expressive behavior, Alice is a fool who has never been sensitive to such important things.
Alice still placed her trust in Sila unconditionally. He is typical of protagonists in novels that are easy to manipulate. After this, Jasmine promised herself that she would teach Alice to be wary of everyone.
Jasmine began to guess the plot that was happening. Some time ago, he was offered by someone named Liza from the Black Hell organization to join as a spy and forward information about Alice to the organization.
Jasmine did not accept the offer. He could not have betrayed Klayver and his wife. It was possible that he had taken action that harmed Alice on purpose.
But Jasmine was not stupid either. Rejecting Liza's offer directly could backfire on her own. Finally, Jasmine took a middle step. He was friendly as if he wanted to accept the offer, but apologized for his limited ability to have no connection to go too deep into Alice's life. In essence, he played a role of pretending to be stupid and not smart enough to carry out the task.
Eventually, Liza withdrew the offer. Jasmine who managed to manipulate Liza only laughed inwardly. He was awarded intelligence in deception. That's one of the experts.
After the incident, Sila immediately changed her attitude and was suspicious. Jasmine drew the conclusion perhaps after she refused in her subtle way, Liza offered a similar thing to Sila. Jasmine guess, Please accept it.
In this world, there was rarely anyone who could refuse the offer of such a large sum of money. Please maybe one of the people who received it. If only Jasmine had not formed a strong bond of friendship with Klayver, she would have also done what Sila did. Unfortunately, Jasmine's loyalty has already been placed on her old friend. Nothing can change that.
Jasmine had been watching Sila's behavior for quite a while. He knew several times Sila had entered Alice's study secretly in search of information. Jasmine could not guess what Sila was looking for. It could be information about Alice's wealth, Alice's husband, or anything quite sensitive.
He has to take firm steps. Before Sila was deep enough in retrieving a lot of information to be leaked, Jasmine had to silence the woman first.
The atmosphere of the house was deserted. The lights of the room were completely turned off. There was no activity at all because it was near midnight. Jasmine walked down the long hallway and passed through room after room relying solely on her instincts.
After arriving at the front yard, he took out a small automatic tool and used it to unlock the main gate.
A small smile formed on Jasmine's lips. He did not have a gate key, but the skill he had was more than enough to break into any door he wanted. Including those with technology safeguards. He's not as good as Klayver. But she is also not as innocent as women in general. At the very least, Jasmine could survive in a desperate state without relying on anyone else.
Jasmine walked down two residential blocks before finally arriving on the main road and stopping the taxi. He saw the watch on his left hand.
00.10
It's early morning. He traveled for a quarter of an hour to a hospital in the city center. This hospital is a hospital that is used by Sila to conduct hospitalization. William escorted to the place and it was likely that the butler was still waiting for him at Sila's side at Alice's behest.
Entering the hospital at this late hour is not easy. Too much risk to enter using Jasmine's true identity. Slyly, Jasmine walked into the nurse's dressing room and used one of the changing rooms to wear the nurse uniform she randomly picked up in a quiet looking locker.
Only an old nurse saw him. He furrowed his forehead at a glance looking at Jasmine's whereabouts, then smiled faintly. His face was still a little confused, feeling less familiar with Jasmine.
"This hospital is changing nurses like changing clothes. Between morning and night it changed people again" the old nurse grumbled as she took off her task shirt and left it in one of the lockers.
Jasmine smiled with relief. This hospital is too big. It would be easy for him to sneak in because one by one people might not know each other.
Jasmine walked down the hallway confidently. A name tag named Bella Anderson she stuck it right on her chest. Jasmine approached the information room of the first floor.
"Hi, I found an item in the bed that was used by a patient named Sila Matrix in the ER room. Can you tell me where Ms.'s room is. Matrix now? I lost track of him after the doctor took him away from the ER."
Jasmine pointed at the small wallet and gestured as if the thing was Sila's.
"You shouldn't have bothered. Just leave it to security and let them take care of the problem" suggested the young woman sitting behind the computer.
"should have. But the patient was so good that I couldn't bear to ignore the situation. Can you help me?"
The woman called out a room on the third floor and let Jasmine pass away carrying a trolley containing a standard set of medicines and medical devices.
The state of safe walking. He just kept walking towards the room mentioned and was not obstructed by anyone.
Arriving at the room that Jasmine was heading to, she entered it without even once knocking on the door. William who was sitting on the side of the bed Sila was a little surprised. He looked confused at Jasmine's suspicious appearance.
"What are you doing?" ask William beware. The corner of his eyes stared at an injection and a yellow liquid was placed in the corner of the tray on top of the trolley.
"Solve the problem Please. Is he sleeping?" Jasmine pointed at Sila who was now lying helplessly with an infusion hose on her left hand. Some of his right and left arms were wrapped in bandages. There was even a cast attached to his arm. His face looked calm, but the bruises that were in some corners of the face looked blue. Tomorrow it will definitely change color to reddish purple.
"You want to finish him off?" Willaim asked frankly.
Jasmine smiled slightly. He stared at the yellow liquid on the trolley meaningfully.
William is Alice's butler. The old man had understood a lot about the ins and outs of the black world. William doesn't need to confess directly if he knows who Jasmine really is.
Behind the vulgar and shameless Jasmine, there was a powerful and calculating Jasmine. Between William and Jasmine actually already know each other's position. It's just that, they prefer to be quiet and not discuss it to the surface. Only this time did Jasmine make her point bluntly.
"Don't do that!"
Jasmine pursed her lips, feeling dislike. He has reached this stage. Just inject the poison and Sila will stay silent forever. That woman won't be a problem for Alice or Klayver anymore.
"You defended him? Do I need to remind you who you serve? You want to switch course, William? You're tired of living." Jasmine squeaks little
"I didn't arrest you for siding with Sila." William answered flatly. He was completely unaffected by Jasmine's sentence being spouted with a sharp tone.
"But?"
"But even without you to die, he'll still die."
Jasmine did not understand William's direction. He raised his eyebrows, trying to ask without a sound.
"I know Sila is starting to become a spy for Black Hell. And I know they've infected her with a slow-acting nerve agent. At most, he would only last three months from now. Why are you soiling your hands to kill a dying man?"
