Night had finally fallen, and there was a boat floating in the ocean.
Thalia threw the man onto the deck.
He gradually regained consciousness after pain took over his body. The man looked up at his surroundings only to see darkness all around. He was in the middle of the ocean.
The man tried to move, but he soon found that his hands and feet had been tied up.
Just as he was struggling, Thalia's taunting voice rang from behind him. “Oh, you're awake?”
The man turned in the direction of the sound. When he saw her, Anthony, and Benjamin, his eyebrows furrowed. “Who are you? What are
you going to do?”
The three of them looked at him silently.
“This is kidnapping! I'll have the police arrest all of you!” the man exclaimed, trying to scare them.
At that, Anthony smiled coldly. “Kidnapping?”
He slowly walked over to the man and crouched down. His young face seemed terrifying in the dark. “Do you think anyone would find out if I decide to throw you into the ocean and leave you here for a few days?”
The look on the man's face changed the moment he heard that.
“Even if someone were to discover your body, will you still be able to speak?” Anthony asked as he looked at the man.
The latter's face was filled with shock as he found it hard to believe that those words were actually spoken out of a child's mouth. Moreover, the boy was so young, but he gave off an oppressive aura. He did not seem like he was joking around at all.
Anthony raised an eyebrow at the man's silence. “Do you want to try it out?”
The man was indeed slightly afraid as he stammered, “H-How have I offended you? Why are you treating me this way?”
“What do you think?” Anthony asked.
The man looked between Anthony and the others who were standing at the side. He did not dare to utter a single word.
Although he felt guilty about what he had done, he was sure that he had
done a good, clean job. No one would be able to find out.
"I-I don't know,” the man said as his lips quivered.
“You don't know? If that's the case, why don't I help you jog your memory?
Anthony then looked over to Thalia. “Over to you!”
Thalia's lips curled up. “My pleasure.”
She walked over and pulled the man up to his feet, dragging him over to the edge of the deck.
The man was about to be scared to death. “This is against the law! It's murder!”
“I know. Don't worry, I'll make sure that no one finds out. Moreover, I'll make it seem that you had jumped into the sea to kill yourself. No one would even suspect that it was us,” Thalia calmly said to the screaming man.
The man was at a loss of words.
Thalia turned back around to look at Anthony. “Should I throw him into the waters and go for a ride? I've never killed an ordinary man before, so I'm feeling a little excited about it. I don't want to kill him so quickly.”
The man looked at her, his eyes bulging out.
Huh, what does she mean by she has never killed an ordinary man before?
Anthony glanced at the man's pale face. “Up to you.”
“Okay!”
With that, Thalia grabbed a hook and attached it to the ropes around the man. She then kicked the man into the waters without any hesitation.
