Ten minutes later.
A person was hanged upside down from a ceiling fan, their neck slashed open halfway, with large amounts of blood streaming down from their dangling head.
Drip, drip, it poured into the large bucket below.
A person sat on a small bench smoking a cigarette, silently watching as the blood in the bucket gradually coagulated.
Only after the blood had coagulated did he stand up to search the house, eventually finding an already yellowed photo inside a book in the suitcase.
A very young girl with pigtails had fallen to the ground, dirty, with a shoe print on her left cheek and soil on her right, as if someone had pressed her to the ground...
She was terrified, her coat already torn off, revealing the small sweater underneath.
She was very scared, tears in her eyes.
And very confused and bewildered.
She didn't understand why these people wanted to be so cruel to her.
And she didn't understand what they wanted to do to her.
She was just scared.
