Chapter 340 - Three dirty mice (1/2)
Perplexity.Shock. Disbelief. Kong Da didn't fail to amuse Xiu Mei with an array of expressions. How could this confident woman be Alice? XM is entirely different from Alice that he knew. She was just a weak, naïve and innocent girl with a handful of dreams. But XM is a woman of 21st century, confident, sharp, powerful, and commanding.
These two women are the exact opposite when it comes to their personalities.
”A-Alice!?”
”Alice?... Alice died seven years back, UNCLE. The woman standing in front of you is X.M…. XM. Call me XM, UN.CLE” The way XM addresses him by emphasizing on the word Uncle, it seems more like a mockery or maybe a warning.
”Alice or XM, you both are the same. You b*….”
'Pak'
”Don't you know when two people are talking one should not interrupt in between. Looks like you are still the same mannerless girl, Liu. Don't tell me in all these years you haven't learned anything from your father?” Xiu Mei looked at Kong Da with a twisted face, ”Oh….!I forgot! You both share the same genes. When your father has not learned it yet, how can he teach you?”
”You… How dare you slap me?” Kong Liu wanted to rub her cheek, but her pride was so big that she acted like it didn't hurt.
'Pak'
”Here's another demo”
This time Kong Liu's face was whipped to the side, she was forced to press the cheek that was burning in pain.
”Interrupt me again, more such demo will follow” Xiu Mei eyed Kong Liu for a second before bringing her attention back to Kong Da. ”So where were we?.... ah…. I remember. ALICE… Your favorite niece, UNCLE”
Kong Da did not answer her, but his tight jaw and deathly glare showed how angry he was. ”You did all this to take revenge” He stated, his voice cold but it didn't affect Xiu Mei. If this was old Alice, she would have run away to hide under the bed to escape his beating.
”No…. To destroy you” Xiu Mei answered coolly.
”You think it's that easy to destroy me? Does it look like that this small game of yours and Infinity Software's secret could destroy a power like me?” Kong Da jeered at Xiu Mei, ” Alice…. Alice…. Alice… I thought you have grown some brains after becoming XM, but it looks like you are the same old stupid Alice. Silly woman, I'm Kong Da. No one can do anything against me otherwise...”
”Otherwise you will repeat what you did with Uncle Xavier. Right?” Xiu Mei casually strolled to the nearest chair, turned it towards Kong Da before she sat down on it. She crossed her legs and rested an elbow on the armrest.
To others, it looks like a queen confronting the accused by playing with them and soon she is going to announce the death sentence.
[Three dirty mice, three dirty mice]
[See how they will die]
[They hurt my little princes]
[I'll cut off their tails, with a carving knife]
[Did you ever seen such a thing in your life]
[As three dirty mice]
A man entered the room, singing the nursery rhyme 'Three blind mice' [1] in a completely different and creepy version, making one feel a rush of goosebumps.
He was closely followed by a young man and a group of doctors and nurses.
The ugly mark on the left side of his face makes him look scary but the pained look in his eyes and the way he was holding a ragged doll tied up in metal wires, attracted everyone's attention.
