Scarlett Jennings’ Weibo post sent a chill down the spines of all the curious onlookers online.
It was no surprise; the last person Scarlett Jennings had straightforwardly accused of carrying a murder debt was Louis Xalvadora.
He was accountable for five whole human lives!
Now she directly tweeted that the perpetrator who attacked a child with a knife carried a murder debt, and not just one.
Oh my God, wouldn’t this be at the level of a killer lunatic?
Netizens plunged into immense panic over Scarlett Jennings’ post. In just a few minutes, the tweet was retweeted over ten million times, and it shot up to the trending list.
At the same time, Scarlett Jennings received a call from Daniel Wright.
On the other end, Daniel Wright’s breath was clearly a bit quick, and his voice was both deep and urgent,
"What do you mean on Weibo? This person has a murder debt on them? How many did they kill..."
Scarlett Jennings cut him off before he could finish, "Not human lives."
One sentence, slightly eased Daniel Wright’s emotions on the other end of the line, but his breathing was still heavy.
"Then what is it?"
"All small animals."
Scarlett Jennings’ voice was a bit cold, different from her usual calm demeanor, with a hint of disgust in her tone.
"Cats and dogs have spirits, especially those animals that were tortured to death. They would turn into Shadow Spirits, haunting the person responsible."
Hearing this, Daniel Wright didn’t feel any better either.
Though he wasn’t fond of cats or dogs, he also despised such violent acts against animals.
As a police officer for years, he’d encountered numerous criminals.
Many perpetrators of heinous murders had, to some degree, a history of torturing animals.
Incidents of cat abuse were not uncommon these years, and the groups doing it had become rampant.
From their words and actions, it was evident they possessed a deeply twisted psyche.
It’s no exaggeration to say that those who take pleasure in torturing animals might be future murderers.
And such cruel acts even garnered support on the internet from those who disliked cats and dogs.
With no animal protection laws in place domestically, these people became more brazen.
"The police have already focused their investigation on him. I’ll have someone follow up on what you said."
"Okay."
After hanging up the call with Daniel Wright, Scarlett Jennings looked at the uproar her Weibo post had caused online, feeling a rare twinge of guilt.
She simply reposted her previous tweet, adding a supplementary note.
[The lives of cats and dogs are lives too.]
Once again, netizens exploded upon seeing this message.
[Aaaaah! Keeping us in suspense is deadly!!! I thought it was another twisted serial killer!!]
[Fairy Lady, could you stop leaving us hanging with your Weibo posts?]
[Look at how inexperienced you all seem, I guessed it wasn’t a human murder debt right away. If it were, Scarlett would’ve already mentioned the Sea City police.]
[Uh, speaking of which, it seems everyone’s already tagged them numerous times...]
[Doesn’t anyone care that the lives of cats and dogs are lives too?]
[Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone who can just attack children indiscriminately found pleasure in torturing cats and dogs.]
[People who torture and kill pets are psychopaths!]
