Shane tilted his glasses and said, "In the operating room. I was just about to head over."
Only then Yvonne realized that he was wearing a surgical gown.
Yvonne asked, "So her internal organs haven't been taken out yet?"
Shane shook his head. "Nope. I knew that you guys would definitely come over, so I haven't started yet. Otherwise, it's too scary. Let's go to the operating room together."
Yvonne and Henry looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and followed him to the operating room.
When they arrived at the operating room, Yvonne saw a person lying on the operating table, but the person was covered with a white cloth. She couldn't see the face, only the figure.
Jacqueline should be under the white cloth.
Henry suddenly looked at Yvonne. "Are you afraid?"
Yvonne stared at the operating table, nodded, and shook her head at the same time. "A little. After all, I'm seeing a dead person with my own eyes. But at the same time, I'm quite excited. How about it? Am I terrible?"
Shane stood beside her and answered, "There's nothing to be afraid of. Jacqueline's death wasn't ugly. " 1
Henry glared at him as if warning Shane that he said what Henry wanted to say in the first place.
Shane pretended not to see it and continued, "Lift it up. n
Yvonne answered with a trembling hand and placed it on a corner of the white cloth. "Okay."
Perhaps she wasn't been mentally prepared yet, and that was why she didn't lift it up in the first place. Her hands trembled even more.
Seeing this, Henry stretched out his hand and put it o n her trembling hand. "Don't be afraid, I'll lift it up with you."
Yvonne raised her head, gave him a complicated look, and finally compromised. "Okay."
As soon as her voice fell, Henry began to exert force on his hand, controlling her hand while lifting the white cloth on the operating table.
The white cloth was gone and the scene on the operating table was clearly exposed to the three of them.
Jacqueline was lying on the operating table with her eyes wide open as if she wouldn't be able to rest in peace.
Yvonne breathed a sigh of relief seeing Jacqueline in this condition.
Indeed, as Shane said, her death wasn't scary. She didn't even look like a dead person.
But Jacqueline's pale look, cold skin, and completely dull pupils showed that she was a dead person who had lost her breath and heartbeat.
Shane looked at Yvonne with a smile. "How is it? Like I said, it's not that scary, right?"
Yvonne hummed and said, "It's not as bad as I imagined, like blowing her brains out."
Shane smiled even wider. "The current death penalty i s different from before. When her body was sent over, I cleaned it up first so that it'd look like a natural death."
Yvonne suddenly exclaimed, "That's great!"
Henry looked at her. "What's so great?"
Yvonne stared at Jacqueline coldly and said, "Of course it's about Jacqueline. She died just right. I completely let go of my hatred when she died."
After two seconds, she suddenly squatted down and started to cry.
Her behavior shocked Shane. "Why is she..."
Henry stopped Shane from pulling her, so he looked at her and said, "She's happy. Let her cry."
When Shane heard this, he didn't move.
After some time, Yvonne gradually stopped crying and stood up from the ground with two red eyes. Looking a t the two of them, she smiled embarrassingly. "I'm sorry that you guys have to see this."
Shane waved his hand. "No, I understand how you feel."
Henry stretched out his hand and wiped away her tears with his thumb. "Let's get out of here and leave this to Shane."
Yvonne nodded and went out after him.
They went out but didn't go too far from the operating room. They waited outside.
After waiting for about two hours, the lights in the operating room went out.
Then, Yvonne saw the operating room door open and a nurse pushed a trolley out of the room quickly, running in one direction.
