Black Rose

Chapter 78

He scrubbed and scrubbed full of anger and hate. It was the middle of the night and he was up doing this because that bitch had pushed his fucking limits. He continued to scrub making the place as spotless as he could. He had cleared one specific area, moving all the crap he didn't need away.

He usually did this calmly, a little at a time but he needed to move faster, the bitches body wouldn't last long even if it was being refrigerated. He didn't even get to inject her. He smacked the floor in frustration, she had messed with his plans so badly. He had about 3 days before he would have real trouble with her. She was submerged in Ice now, but that could only do so much.

He scrubbed harder and harder cursing her in his mind, her stupid words ringing in his ear "Stupid bitch! Useless bitch!" He muttered angrily as he scrubbed "Kana loves me! He loves me!!!"

He heard laughter. He paused and looked around. What the fuck was that? Was there someone else here? We're they listening to him!?

He listened carefully but he was met with nothing but silence. He shook his head and begun to scrub again, the black residue covering his yellow cleaning gloves.

The laughter echoed again. He stopped.

"Who the fuck is that?!" He said out loud, his voice echoing back to him followed by another round of laughter, he stood up looking around.
"Come out!" He yelled, and the laughter appeared again, mocking him, making him angrier. He recognized that laughter but it couldn't be.

"She's dead, I fucking killed her she's dead" he mumbled to himself shaking his head, the laughter got louder booming in his ears, he covered them frantically but he heard it loud and clear. "Shut up.SHUT UP!!! YOU'RE DEAD YOU STUPID BITCH! YOU'RE DEAD!!"

"He'll hate you...." the voice teased

"...He doesn't even know you..." it whispered followed by laughter

"He does know me! He loves me!" He smacked his head hard "You're dead! You're dead!"

"Pathetic..." she whispered back "couldn't even kill me right... made a mistake.."

He looked around frantically. He needed sleep that's what it was, his lack of sleep was catching up to him, she was dead, Lawan was dead. The laughter echoed and he glared at nothing. He took the gloves off throwing them to the side and walked out of the abandoned building.

She was dead he had killed her, and dead people couldn't talk. She was dead. He kept repeating this as he walked to his car and went on his way

Monday morning- At the station

Gulf wrote down. 'Thana'. Underlining it.That's the person she had met at the cafe, he was an all around sweet, all around hardworking and a little bit too perfect for Gulf's taste. Also she mentioned she felt like he knew her, her likes her dislikes, that seemed suspicious. What if he had been watching her?

He did believe the killer knew his victims, that's why there was no signs of struggle anywhere, if they were friends or even dating why would they put up a fight. He flipped the page, he was also the last person she was supposed to see the night she died, now all he had to do was try and track down this Thana, and the cafe he worked in . He checked his email to see if he had gotten any response regarding getting the logs for Irashi's text messages and calls.

Even if the phone was gone, if he could find a clue who this Thana was by tracing his phone that was a step in the right direction. He saw a reply from Nur. He clicked on it. She had something to show him.

He turned off his screen locking the computer and quickly made his way to her department.

"Nur?" He said stepping into her office. She peaked her head from behind her computer screen and smiled.
