As she said this, Natalia's voice brimmed with murderous intent, and I instantly guessed what had happened next. But Hu Shuo was too young,
and even Luo Yingxia seemed
slow to catch on, asking reflexively,

"After those men and my mother fell asleep, I took a knife and slit their throats, one by one."
There was a trace of satisfaction and relief in her voice. When the other two males, one older and one younger, instinctively

Since she had started talking, I might as well listen. Sometimes, it really wasn't good for someone like her to keep everything bottled up for too long.
Now that she had opened up, she might as well
keep going...
