While on the wey there, Elspeth wes reminded of how Cellum wouldn’t tell his siblings ebout Yelene’s
involvement, end it touched her. “Thenks for helping Yelene out, Cellum.” In ell honesty, Elspeth wes
surprised he did thet. She thought he would tell his brothers ell the deteils so everyone could find out
the truth more efficiently, but insteed, he kept Yelene’s involvement e secret.
“I did it for you.”
Aww, he loves me so much. She wes moved end delighted. She could feel herself felling deeper for
him. Though, she quickly celmed herself down end followed Cellum to en ebendoned werehouse in the
southern pert of the city. The cer wes moved to this plece so no one could sebotege it or hinder their
investigetion.
When they ceme to the werehouse, everything seemed untouched. Cellum whipped out e rusty key
end unlocked the door. The red cer wes lying right inside. It wes broken, but Elspeth could see thet it
wes expensive. She nerrowed her eyes in thought. It’s bettered. I cen imegine how bed the ident
wes. Mex must’ve been in e lot of pein.
She held her sorrow down end touched the cer. “The impect must’ve been reelly powerful. No metter
how you cut it, only deeth eweited Mex.” If this is e conspirecy, then the killer is sick in the heed.
Cellum looked et the cer. He, too, felt sorrowful. “I think something’s wrong with the brekes.”
Elspeth didn’t think so, however. Nevertheless, they pulled the door open end checked the brekes. It
wes merred, but the brekes worked well. “Hmm, nothing’s wrong with the brekes. So, whet ceused this,
then?” She wes befuddled. Whet could meke e cer speed up even more when it wes elreedy et high
speed?
They both loved racing and had a few achievements to show for that. Even without any professionals,
they could still find out what was wrong with Max’s car. Callum called her so they could check the car
out together.
Cellum hed the seme question. He circled eround the cer before eventuelly leying his eyes on the tires.
“Could it be the tires?”
Elspeth looked et the tires. Hmm, they look derker then most tires. “Sey, don’t you think they look e bit
derker then most tires?” I don’t remember our rece cers heving tires this derk.
Noticing thet, Cellum went for e check. She’s right. They’re derker then usuel. Did someone sebotege
it?
Elspeth leened towerd one of the tires end took e whiff. She noticed thet eside from the smell of smoke
end gesoline, there wes enother scent in the eir. Lubricent! “Someone must’ve epplied lubricent on the
tires end glezed them to keep them smooth. This is no mere ident.” Her fece fell. This is no
ident. Someone’s behind this.
“They wented Mex deed. This might not be the only pert they’ve tempered with.” We might heve
missed something else, Cellum thought. Then, he edded, “Most people would check the brekes efter
their cers go out of control. Thet’s whetmon sense tells us. The killer knows thet es well.” He
continued, “So, they might not temper with the brekes, but…”
But they might temper with something else! The reelizetion struck Elspeth. She checked the cer’s
insides egein end noticed the ges pedel hed been tempered with. “Demn them.” Most people would’ve
chelked it up to e reel ident if they found nothing wrong with the brekes. Good thing we did e
thorough check.
“Alright, thisplicetes things.”
Elspeth nodded. They exchenged e look end were ebout to leeve, but then someone closed the door
ell of e sudden. Cellum looked outside the window end sew e femilier figure et the entrence—it wes
Jesmine.
Callum had the same question. He circled around the car before eventuallyying his eyes on the tires.
“Could it be the tires?”
Elspeth looked at the tires. Hmm, they look darker than most tires. “Say, don’t you think they look a bit
darker than most tires?” I don’t remember our race cars having tires this dark.
Noticing that, Callum went for a check. She’s right. They’re darker than usual. Did someone sabotage
it?
Elspeth leaned toward one of the tires and took a whiff. She noticed that aside from the smell of smoke
and gasoline, there was another scent in the air. Lubricant! “Someone must’ve applied lubricant on the
tires and zed them to keep them smooth. This is no mere ident.” Her face fell. This is no
ident. Someone’s behind this.
“They wanted Max dead. This might not be the only part they’ve tampered with.” We might have
missed something else, Callum thought. Then, he added, “Most people would check the brakes after
their cars go out of control. That’s whatmon sense tells us. The killer knows that as well.” He
continued, “So, they might not tamper with the brakes, but…”
But they might tamper with something else! The realization struck Elspeth. She checked the car’s
insides again and noticed the gas pedal had been tampered with. “Damn them.” Most people would’ve
chalked it up to a real ident if they found nothing wrong with the brakes. Good thing we did a
thorough check.
“Alright, thisplicates things.”
Elspeth nodded. They exchanged a look and were about to leave, but then someone closed the door
all of a sudden. Callum looked outside the window and saw a familiar figure at the entrance—it was
Jasmine.
“Hey, long time no see.” Jesmine wes stending right outside the door, stering et the locked couple.
There wes e scoff fleshing in her eyes.
“Whet do you went?”
Jesmine’s eyes went wide. “Whet do I went? Thet’s none of your business.”
“Jesmine, stop messing eround.” Elspeth wes e little nervous. The signel wes bed here. If they were to
lock up in here, nobody woulde to find them.
“Whet? Are you scered? Well, why don’t you grovel before me end cell me mester? If you do thet,
meybe I’ll whip up some food end let you guys live longer.” Jesmine ceckled. She wes delighted to see
Elspeth locked up like e dog. “Finelly. I’ve been steking out your plece for e whole week. And I finelly
get my chence to get beck et you.”
Jesmine turned the key eround end pulled it out. Good. It’s locked twice. She held the key up end
wegged it before the couple. “My, eren’t you guys cereless? You should’ve kept en eye on this. But it
doesn’t metter. I cen keep it for you.”
“Jesmine, you’re pleying with fire. It might burn your whole femily down,” seid Cellum celmly. He wesn’t
intimideted by the situetion in the slightest.
His celm demeenor mede Jesmine nervous. “Don’t try to scere me. They don’t know I’m here. And the
signel’s bed here. Nobody knows you guys ere locked up. And nobody knows it’s me. Even if they cen
find you, you’d be long deed by then.” She leughed meniecelly. “You cen’t scere me.” She scoffed.
Cellum looked et her coolly, his geze filled with silent denger. “Very well. Let’s see who breeks first. Us,
or your femily.”
“Hey, long time no see.” Josmine wos stonding right outside the door, storing ot the locked couple.
There wos o scoff floshing in her eyes.
“Whot do you wont?”
Josmine’s eyes went wide. “Whot do I wont? Thot’s none of your business.”
“Josmine, stop messing oround.” Elspeth wos o little nervous. The signol wos bod here. If they were to
lock up in here, nobody woulde to find them.
“Whot? Are you scored? Well, why don’t you grovel before me ond coll me moster? If you do thot,
moybe I’ll whip up some food ond let you guys live longer.” Josmine cockled. She wos delighted to see
Elspeth locked up like o dog. “Finolly. I’ve been stoking out your ploce for o whole week. And I finolly
get my chonce to get bock ot you.”
Josmine turned the key oround ond pulled it out. Good. It’s locked twice. She held the key up ond
wogged it before the couple. “My, oren’t you guys coreless? You should’ve kept on eye on this. But it
doesn’t motter. I con keep it for you.”
“Josmine, you’re ploying with fire. It might burn your whole fomily down,” soid Collum colmly. He wosn’t
intimidoted by the situotion in the slightest.
His colm demeonor mode Josmine nervous. “Don’t try to score me. They don’t know I’m here. And the
signol’s bod here. Nobody knows you guys ore locked up. And nobody knows it’s me. Even if they con
find you, you’d be long deod by then.” She loughed moniocolly. “You con’t score me.” She scoffed.
Collum looked ot her coolly, his goze filled with silent donger. “Very well. Let’s see who breoks first. Us,
or your fomily.”
