Chapter 300 - 299: Death Note
***Flashback***
Nathan looked at his wife with gentleness as they head to where Eunji's men kept the Jin family members.
He was still clueless of what was running inside her head while they got closer to their destination.
"A penny for your thoughts?"
Eunji only sighed in response to his question.
"Am I doing this right?" She blurted out.
Nathan contemplated for a while as he looked for the right answers.
"Wifey. People like them...no matter how much they said they would change, they would still go back on their habits. You have given them the chance before and look what they had done to us. Letting them off the hook once is enough. Or they would treat you for a fool if you'd let them go this time."
Eunji didn't make any sound after that.
Meanwhile, inside an abandoned building not far from where they were, three people were being tied on the chair with a blindfold obstructing their eyesight and their mouths were stuffed with a piece of fabric which muffled any noise that they produced.
They were positioned one meter apart from each other and a cold concrete wall was behind them.
"Mmm!"
"Mmm!"
They tried to scream for help but even that attempts were futile.
They could only try to break free from being tied before the people who placed them in this position would enter the room that they were on.
Little did they know, the guards were actually standing right across them on a snappy position with guns tucked on their sides.
They were wearing the KSA uniform which they were so proud of owning.
They were guarding these people on shifting schedule ever since they were tasked to bring them in this place.
They didn't feel any ounce of sympathy towards these people.
For them, they deserved it for trying to kill their Mistress. Too bad they were told to not hurt them and wait for further instructions.
They were told that their big boss would be coming to punish these people.
These captives were still clueless as to what had happened because they were brought here while they were unconscious.
The last thing they remembered was that Jin Cheng was on the phone with Master Ling.
But then, their trusted men rushed in their house and told them that the police had raided their stores for smuggled products and drugs.
Then the authorities came knocking on their gates after that with warrant of arrest on their hands.
They were then brought in the police station to get their statements and their stands about the case being filed against them.
They got the chance to call their lawyers but they didn't know that their lawyers were paid by Eunji.
And that night, instead of being detained in prison, they were said to be transferred into another detention center and when they woke up, they were already in this place. Being blindfolded and held as a captive.
They also didn't know how long they have been in this state. And if given the chance, they would make sure to make the culprit to have a taste of their revenge.
They had to warn the Lings and also that person backing them to be careful should they given the chance to do so.
They didn't know that the Lings had also suffered a somewhat similar scenario just like them.
The only difference was that instead of being killed, they were tortured by Jin Jie to the point that they became insane and was now held in a mental facility which were managed by one of Eunji's most trusted men.
And their faith would be decided by Eunji today before she went back to S. Korea.
After a moment of struggling, they heard some shuffling on the room.
"Mmmm!"
The three people moved in protest to whoever had entered their room as they heard the steel door opening.
The agents on the other hand immediately greeted the new arrival even if she was wearing a gass mask especially when they saw the ring she was wearing on her right index finger.
"Mistress!" The agents guarding them greeted while bowing their heads in respect making them to not see that she was not actually alone.
"Remove their blindfolds." A cold voice echoed as she commanded the guards who were patiently waiting for her.
Three men went towards them and removed the blindfold.
As soon as they regained their eyesight back, Jin Syaoran and Jin Zhilan screamed on their seats.
They were probably cursing her at the bottom of their hearts.
"Let them speak. I want to hear what they wanted to say." She said.
"Let us go! I swear to god you'll pay for what you have done to us!" Jin Zhilan yelled as soon as she was allowed to speak.
However Eunji didn't listen to them and instead she coldly told her men.
"Bring it in."
A man from the outside came in pushing a cart containing the tools and other things wherein they could choose from any of them how they would want to die later.
"Nathan boy, are you behind this?" Jin Cheng asked as soon as he saw Nathan standing beside the woman wearing the ghost mask.
"This handsome man here had nothing to do with this, old man." Eunji intervened.
Nathan was there as a spectator.
"A mere subordinate had no rights to speak in behalf of their master especially when they were not asked to do so. Right, Nathan Bai?" Jin Cheng proudly raised his head as he looked at Nathan and ignored the lady with the ghost mask.
"Oho! Old man. I think there's a misunderstanding here. This gorgeous lady here is the boss and not me. I'm only here as here moral support."
Nathan then cockily inserted his right hand inside his side pocket while he gently wrapped his left arm on her waist hugging her on the side.
"Then...who's this big coward who could not even show her face to us?" The old man asked.
'Should I really have to answer that question everytime?' Eunji thought.
"Who am I? The grim reaper that would send your souls to heaven." She playfully said but still the coldness in her words never faded. It even gave off an eerie vibe when her voice rang and reverberated on the walls of the room.
"Ha! If you think I'm in the mood to laugh with your joke, you're wrong!" Jin Cheng angrily spat.
"Relax. I'm only telling the truth. And besides, I thought we're family here. I feel bad to receive such harsh words from you when I'm just being honest here...fake grandpa." She playfully articulated the last part.
"Grandpa? I don't have a granddaughter like you." He spat.
"Didn't you hear how I call you? I said fake... grandpa." She repeated making the old man to be angry even more.
She then nodded to one of her men to get the bucket full of ice and cold water and then poured it on Old Master Jin's body.
"Aaaah!!" The old man screamed as soon as his skin got in contact with the cold water.
"Dad!"
"You bitch let my father go!" Jin Syaoran said with his stares full of daggers.
Nathan who had witnessed it wanted to interrupt but Eunji gently squeezed his hand so he had no other choice but to let it slide...for now. Besides, his wife was clearly having fun toying with them.
"Calm down, will you? At least I'm not that heartless to make him suffer from heart attack. The cold water will calm him down."
She then looked at the couple and continued, "What? Do you want it, too? Oh I know, you haven't had a shower yet. It's been what? Two days?"
Eunji's words were full of sarcasm.
"Do you still not able to recognize me? We met the other day at Old Ling's birthday party." She hinted while looking at the shivering old man.
"It's you?! The waitress?!" Jin Zhilan screamed as soon as she remembered it.
"Yes! That was me!" She proudly said making Nathan to chuckle.
"What do you want from us then? Money? Too late, we don't have any." Jin Zhilan asked.
"Hahaha!" Everyone in the room laughed as soon as they heard the stupidest question ever.
"Do I look like I lack money?"
"Then what do you want?! I swear I'll kill you myself after I escape here." Jin Syaoran looked at her with his dagger gazes.
"Careful Patriarch Jin, I don't like how you look at my wife." Nathan butted in.
"What?!" The couple blurted out in unison.
Even the still shivering Jin Cheng paused momentarily because of the shock.
But then they chuckled as they thought this was the woman who presented herself as Kim Eunji.
They still believed that Eunji was still stuck in the hospital overseas recuperating from the injuries she had suffered.
"Patriarch? Does he even deserve that title?" Eunji paused and looked at her husband who was protectively wrapping his hand around her waist and then continued, "He's no longer the Patriarch especially when the clan that they were so proud of would soon be non-existent in this world."
Jin Cheng suddenly felt that something was amiss here. No. The moment they entered this room, something had been off.
Could it be...
Before they even continued playing the guessing game, Eunji removed the mask and gave it for Nathan to keep.
"Hold it handsome please." She said together with a wink.
"Well...I guess you heard the rumors of my return." She said.
"How..." The couple mumbled.
"No! You're the con. Hahahhaha! Nathan, don't be fooled by that woman's appearance, she's definitely a fake." Jin Cheng said.
"I see. Still in denial, yeah?"
Eunji decided to not tell them that it was Ana whom they called the con. There's no use anyways.
They would definitely die here.
And she would make sure of that.
"No! J said...you're still in the hospital?" Old Master Jin was still in denial indeed.
Not only him but the couple, too.
"And oh...anyways, J was still alive and I killed Ling Bao, the fake J for you." She added.
"No! That was impossible. You're lying!" That's what they told her as that was what on their mind, too.
But Eunji continued to wear the proud smug face she had as she looked at them.
"Hahaha! Do you you really think that we would bow down and apologize to you just because you got us?"
Jin Cheng was the epitome of a stubborn old man.
"Isn't it too late for that? I'm not here to get some informations from any of you." She said with a pout.
"As I said, I'm the grim reaper today."
She then made a sign and her men understood what she meant.
"I'm not that heartless to make you die and be clueless about it. At least, I'll give you the privelige to choose on how you'll die for the sake of the fact that we could have been 'family' if not for your greed."
"The moment you tried to ruin my family, your names were already on my death notebook." She said.
Her men let them see the things inside the cart.
"F*ck you!" Jin Zhilan blurted out.
"That's not a nice word to say Auntie. Is that how you wanted to die?"
Horror was evident in Jin Zhilan's eyes when she heard Eunji.
Eunji waited for them to choose but they were stubborn.
"Fine. If you don't want to choose then I will." She then walked towards the tray and chose three elixer bottles and stuffed them in her hands.
"Are you really going to stain your hands with our blood? Aren't you afraid of being sent to jail? I'm sure the authorities will hunt you should they found out." Jin Syaoran confidently said.
"Oh? Why should I be afraid. I have a powerful husband backing me up."
She then called the three agents and gave the elixer bottles to them.
"Feed these to them."
Eunji walked towards Nathan who was having enjoying in watching her having fun.
Her men was fast and went towards their side.
They attempted to resist it but since they were bound and tied on the chair, their efforts were futile.
Deafening screams echoed inside the room accompanied with the sound of breaking bones.
This elixer was her latest invention. It was actually made of nano robots which would destroy every bones and the cells in the body once it was ingested. This would cause a painful and agonizing death to someone who would die through this.
The scene was bloody and gore but Eunji didn't leave as she wanted to watch how her new invention was in actual test application.
She would make some adjustments if there's any.
And as expected, even no single trace was left from their body even a drop of blood.
This made Eunji to smile as she was satisfied with the results.
