Though paralyzed, still radiantly charming!

Chapter 128: Mission accomplished!!!

Kyle clutched his right cheek, feeling a burning pain, and looked utterly confused. “Why… why did you hit me?”

He wasn’t ready to back down from Ethan’s threats, but he hadn’t even started any trouble yet, and he got slapped right after getting out of the car.

“Because you were planning to give me trouble later,” Ethan said, shaking his hand to ease the tingling sensation. That slap had really landed hard, and even he felt the recoil.

“You’re crazy! I wasn’t even starting anything!” Kyle was completely flustered.

“Smack!” Ethan delivered another slap, this time to the left cheek.

“I’m going to kill you!” Kyle, unable to bear the humiliation, swung his fist at Ethan.

Ethan was ready, instantly activating his skill, Void Dick, summoning Dick, and with a swift twist of his waist and a punch, he landed a blow on Kyle’s jaw.

With the current “10-inch Dick,” hard as rock.

Kyle’s head went blank in an instant, like a boxer knocked out, and he thudded to the ground.

The whole ordeal took less than half a minute.

This smooth combo left everyone around them dumbfounded. By the time they snapped back to reality, the tall and burly Kyle was already unconscious on the ground.

The school nurse looked at Ethan, speechless for a moment.

Ethan glared at him, “You saw it, right? Kyle was trying to sneak attack this terminally ill patient. Believe it or not, I could be the one lying on the ground not getting up right now.”

Reluctantly, the school nurse hurried over to help Kyle, who was still on the ground.

Ethan turned to Lily, “Let’s go, we’re heading to the hospital room now.”

“What?” Lily jumped, instinctively stepping back. She was really scared now, the guy in front of her, who kept saying he was terminally ill, had just knocked down Kyle twice with ease.

“There’s Officer Jessica in the hospital room, don’t worry, let’s go,” Ethan said, his gaze sweeping over her.

“Oh! Okay. Okay!” Lily’s face was pale, her eyes darting to her unconscious boyfriend on the ground.

Thinking about this man’s terminal illness, who knew what he could do next.

She slowly followed behind Ethan, speeding up her steps when he glanced back at her.

Abigaile watched everything, her eyes wide with astonishment behind her sunglasses. This kid was more capable than she had imagined.

Without Kyle and the school nurse causing trouble, the three of them quickly arrived outside the hospital room.

Officer Jessica stood at the door in her police uniform, setting aside her usual abrasive demeanor when alone with Ethan.

By looks alone, she undoubtedly fulfilled every fantasy one might have of a mature, attractive policewoman—beautiful, determined, with rare sharp brows and starry eyes, and a tall, straight figure that exuded a commanding presence.

“You’re here, come on in,” she said, pointing to the room and calmly speaking to Lily, “I’m sorry to involve you in this investigation, this will be the last time.”

After saying that, she adjusted the brim of her cap—a small gesture that Lily caught.

Her heart tightened, a bad premonition washing over her.

The four entered the room, where the bed by the window was curtained off, a vague silhouette visible on the bed, but all the medical equipment had been removed.

Seeing this, Lily’s legs went weak.

Jessica reached out to steady her, her expression unchanged, her face stoic.

Ethan and Abigaile also bowed their heads in silence.

In the empty room, the still silhouette behind the white curtain, the removed equipment—all seemed to hint at an undeniable truth.

“Sit down,” Jessica said, pulling out a notebook. “Everything you answer now will conclude the investigation. Lily, did you ever say that being with Mr. Logan made you feel safe and comfortable?”

“I…” Lily clenched her fists, her eyes fixed on the white curtain. “I… I don’t remember.”

Surprise flickered in Abigaile’s eyes as she looked at Ethan, who still kept his head down.

“So why would he think you said that?” Jessica asked, looking at her notebook.

“I… I don’t know,” Lily murmured, her head hanging even lower, her words flowing a bit more smoothly than before.

“Sorry, I’d like to ask on behalf of Mr. Logan,” Ethan suddenly spoke up, looking at Lily. “Do you genuinely feel that Mr. Logan has been a great bother to you?”

Lily, initially wavering, became guarded as soon as Ethan spoke. After a brief hesitation, she said, “Yes.”

“Do you not have any fond feelings for him at all?” Ethan pressed on.

“Yes,” Lily responded, even quicker than before.

Abigaile shook her head from the sidelines. The boy was being too hasty. Lily had clearly been faltering, and with a bit more pressure, she might have revealed more.

“What a pity.”

“You’re saying this because of Kyle, right?” Ethan suddenly acted like he was righteously indignant. “You wanted to be seen as a woman, and after Kyle found out, he offered to support you financially, so you quit your convenience store job and agreed to date him! Isn’t that it?!”

Lily lowered her head. “No, that’s not it.”

“Kyle was getting closer to you, putting a lot of pressure on you, so you told Logan that someone was harassing you, making you very troubled, right?!” Ethan’s voice grew louder, almost like he was shouting.

“No!” Lily, under his questioning, clenched her fists and raised her voice, her answer more resolute.

“Not even a little bit, a tiny bit of fondness?!” Ethan roared.

“No.” Lily’s head hung even lower. “It only made me feel troubled.”

“Even in the smallest corner of your heart,” Ethan tried to continue.

“Enough.” Jessica stopped Ethan, who looked reluctant to cease his questioning. She turned to Lily and handed her the notebook. “That’s enough. Mr. Logan’s harassment of you has been conclusively proven. Please sign here.”

“Okay.” Lily took the notebook, but Jessica didn’t immediately hand her the pen, hesitating for a moment.

“What will happen to Logan?”

“Oh.” Jessica glanced at the white curtain. “He has no relatives. His body will be cremated and placed with the ashes of other unclaimed criminals. You know, many criminals’ remains are unclaimed by their families.”

“Huh?” Abigaile frowned, looking at Ethan with a face full of questions. Was this really happening?

Ethan, seeing her clear but foolish gaze, figured this was why such a pretty face wasn’t more popular.

“Wait… wait a minute.” Lily looked at the blank space in the notebook. “Why is there a signature from Logan?”

“Well, he felt his end was near yesterday, had the doctor call me over, and he signed a confession before he passed,” Jessica said emotionlessly. “He was a real man.”

Lily’s legs gave way, and she sat down on the floor. This time, Jessica didn’t help her. “Wait… wait, he didn’t.”

“Enough.” Jessica cut her off sternly. “Let’s end this. Don’t let Mr. Logan down.”

“As he was losing consciousness, he asked me if you ever loved him,” Ethan said, then added, “You can tell him the answer yourself. The case is closed.” After speaking, he pulled Jessica and Abigaile out of the hospital room.

The three of them also closed the hospital room door behind them.

Ethan leaned against the corridor wall and closed his eyes, plotting Plan B in his mind.

A quarter of an hour later.

A prompt suddenly appeared before him.

“Dying Wish: Logan hoped Lily would truly admit she loved him (Completed).”

“Mission Reward: 1000 points, Skill Void Dick +1 with a 90-degree misalignment shooting effect.”

“Awesome!” Ethan clenched his fist.
