Ceres heard the masked man said it was a "secret," and she wanted to know the truth even more.
"You tell me now. I will not tell anyone!" Ceres vowed to say.
The masked man came back. At that moment, Ceres heard her fast heartbeat, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
"Then promise not to tell anyone."
"I swear not to tell anyone." Ceres raised her hand nervously and seriously, making an oath.
He would tell her a big secret, right?
The masked man then took off his gloves, and Ceres almost held her breath and carefully picked up the masked man's hand. When she saw his hand, she immediately looked up in doubt and looked at him.
There was indeed a wound on the back of his hand, but it was not a scalded wound at all, but it seemed to be cut by a knife. It was a crisp wound, and no other trace could be seen.
If the wound was huge, Ceres could even doubt whether it was deliberately made to cover the scalded wound, but the wound was too small. The burned wound had two bubbles, and the surroundings were red and swollen. It was impossible to get better so quickly!
"What kind of secret will you tell me?" Ceres was obviously disappointed.
"Yesterday, Mr. Johny was assassinated. Not only did I not catch the murderer, but I also hurt myself. Do you know that if people know that there was an assassination yesterday, and I was injured and let people run away, I will lose my job?"
Ceres was speechless. It seemed that she really wronged him.
"You must not tell anyone about it." The masked man said very seriously.
Ceres sighed silently. "Okay, I will not tell others. I'll get you some medicine to help you deal with it. Wait for me!"
Ceres went straight to Johny's room because the medicine cabinet was in his room, and the masked man did not stop her. When she rushed into the room, Johny was lying quietly in bed, and his hands were still burnt.
