Chapter 528
Jameson Lim started begging for mercy but I couldn’t even understand most of what he was saying, “PL-PLEASHT SHTOPSH!! I- I- AHHHH~ GACK! GARCK! I CAN’T ANYMORESHHH… PLEASSHHHH SHTOPP!!! I’M BEGGI- ARCK! ACK!”
I started planting seeds in his mind, “Are you asking me to stop? You are, right? You see, I asked you a question earlier and I think you’re bent on protecting your boss Wu Ching. Did you know that even in the service industry, even if you try hard and go way above and beyond, once you’re useless to them, they could just as easily replace you? There are some exceptions obviously but think of it like this, you’re protecting him with your life but is he protecting yours with his? Is your life not important as well? Would he even grieve if he found you missing half your jaw? Maybe, but wouldn’t he just replace you with a new one once he knows that you’re dead?”
“YOU’VE- YOU’VE NO IDE- ACK! KACK!!! YOU’VE NO IDEA WHAT WE COULD DO!!! THE THINGS WE’VE ACCOMP-”
“What? You could say all that but where is he now? Hmm? Is he coming soon to take you back with Garbo Marcelo? What if I saw your right leg off, would he take you still? Isn’t it just easier to make a new Jameson Lim? It is really~ easy, right? Right? If you don’t mind, I want to have another try at your lower-left wisdom tooth because I forgot I have my scalpel right here. You already inferred that you’re not gonna spill and he’ll come to save you eventually so, I’ll try and level up my dentistry skills before he ‘arrives’, okay? Would you be a lamb and open wide?”
I picked up the bloody mouth prop once more and as I hovered it above his mouth, his face was already contorting with different emotions. I was looking at him indifferently as I moved the mouth prop closer and closer. However, before it touched the surface of his chapped lip, I stopped myself.
Jameson Lim breathed a short sigh of relief but then I opened my mouth, “You know, I could just kill you now and I’ll help Morales with Garbo Marcelo. Earlier, he was begging to be spared and I bet he’d spill the beans easily in exchange for the information I was looking for.”
“HE- HE WOULD NEVE- GACK! GAHK! HE WOULD NEVER!!! YOU’RE SEVERELY UNDERES-”
“You’re still lively, you know that? I thought you’ve already given up and here you are, threatening me once again. I guess you really want me to improve upon my skills, yeah? Don’t worry, I have the right tools this time.”
“WHAT?! YOU STUPID F.U.C.K, IF YOU’RE GONNA CONTINUE THIS- ACK!!! THIS FARCE, I WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO SPEAK AFTERWARDS!!!”
I gave an approving look as I replied, “Well, you could still write, right?”
Jameson Lim took a few moments before he understood my words as I picked up the mouth prop once more. He tried gritting what was left of his teeth but I easily wedged the mouth prop back. Equipped with a scalpel, I started to scr.a.p.e and slice through his bleeding gums from the other side, and he started to lose his mind from the pain.
It took me a short moment to fully reveal the impacted tooth but he looked like he aged several years.
He thought it wouldn’t get worse but I placed a flat piece of metal between his impacted tooth and his molars before I twisted my grip on it, attempting to dislodge his impacted tooth from its original position. The moment I did that, his body jolted as his eyes shot up, crying and trembling from what he was experiencing.
However, the impacted wisdom tooth didn’t budge.
‘I have to apply more force.’
The moment I adjusted my placement of the flat piece of metal between his teeth, his eyes went maniacal before I casually twisted my grip with added force. I felt the resistance on my hand but I continued to apply more and more pressure until I felt his tooth move over. He let out a long and painful wail and tears started flowing on the side of his face, replacing the ones that have dried up.
That was when I used my forceps to pull the dislodged tooth out but he didn’t even move once I yanked it out. His impacted tooth still had blood and little nerves sticking on it and I just showed it to his lifeless eyes before I set it aside.
“Don’t die on me you motherf.u.c.ker, we still got three more to go.”
I continued to ‘operate’ on him until I removed every single tooth from his mouth. I wasn’t even sure how much time had passed but I kept going until my body just moved on its own. Sometimes, I would be ‘woken up’ with him missing a new tooth while sometimes I would be just putting his mouth prop inside his mouth once again.
I would take a few breaks and remove the mouth prop to talk to him, voluntarily and involuntarily, but I discovered a bloody notebook with several notes that didn’t have my handwriting. Looking at it, it told me that sometime in between our sessions, he sold out his boss. However, I just kept pulling his teeth until I had nothing left to pull.
My mind was on and off and on and off but everything came together once I saw my scalpel buried into one of his eye sockets. After that, I just saw the bloody gloves I was wearing and this slow trickle of blood coming from the table. As I tried to remove my gloves, the only window in this warehouse started to let sunshine through. I turned my head towards the light and I was almost blinded when it hit my eye.
‘It’s already morning, huh…’
I just looked at what was left of the corpse of Jameson Lim one last time before I retrieved my tools. The notebook I found was also among the items I took back and I walked to the exit. The warehouse door was quite hefty as I pulled it to the side but I discovered that my Raptor was relocated a few steps from where I was currently standing. A familiar figure was sleeping by the driver’s seat and I could see two sets of golden locks by the truck bed.
I gingerly closed the warehouse door and the noise made from opening and closing it wasn’t enough to wake up the three that were sleeping a few steps away from me.
A few noticed me right outside the warehouse but they just stopped for a moment and looked at me before continuing on with their jobs. It was still the early morning but several soldiers were already awake and doing their best to keep this place together. However, it seemed that Oscar and Rod already flew back to the compound between the time I was inside the warehouse.
It was then that someone watching me from above contacted me.
