Tenth Case: The Mystery Behind Time

Chapter 1

"Please, trust me..." Kenji said shakily. "Tomorrow the deal will happen. And, I will return the money to you."

"You always push the date back, so I cannot trust you. What is the reason behind this mess, huh?" Davies asked coldly and gave him a stare that couldn't be more cold than the coldest night ever. "You know, we sellers hear so many excuses that our ears are used to hearing them. What makes you an exception?"

"I can," Kenji replied.

"What "I can"?" Davies asked.

"This is um... not good to say aloud," Kenji replied

"Not good to say aloud? What are you doing? What you doing? Huh? People try to make excuses so good to hear and you are just here saying that it is not good to say aloud?" Davies shouted.

"It is really not good, just stop asking..."

Davies did not wait another second.

His face turned bright red and he slammed down at the table.

"I lent you money!!! What excuse do you have???"

"No, I am going to kill a person to get insurance from my wife's..." Kenji said, but immediately realized he had spoken the secret out. Davies looked around and saw no one looking at them, then catched his breath. Then he smiled and said, "hahah, fat did you say just now? I did not hear you... no matter fat you are going to do, remember the money. Right, fat were you talking about just now? You can speak softer. "I received my wife's sister's email yesterday..." and he told Davies the plan. "Uh... umm..." Davies coughed after hearing his plan. "Your voice is too small... I cannot hear what you are saying, one word. But... When I arrive at 5 p.m. tomorrow at the Forest Inn, I want my money... If you don't, you know what will happen right?" "Yes..." Kenji said, then stood up. "If you don't want to be sus, then bring your secretary with you..." Davies said. Kenji nodded his head softly and walked away. "Wow... I didn't think that bastard could think of such a plan..." Davies told himself when Kenji walked far enough. "When his wife dies, I will be riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicccccccccccchhhhhhh!!!!! Oh no... I didn't listen to what he said, no I did not, never in a hundred years... hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!"
