"I'm fine." Renee was calm as she patted Stefan's arm. "But you might break my ribs if you don't get off me."
At that moment, Stefan was clinging to Renee like an octopus. He had even buried his head in her neck timidly. He cleared his throat, quickly detaching from Renee as he muttered awkwardly, "I'm sorry. I forgot my manners." Putting on a poker face, he told Renee, "You're quite strong."
Yeah, I've been hitting the gymn lately." Renee suppressed her smile as she observed him." But you seem a little spooked. It's just a prop, so why were you so scared?" She'd thought he was an unaffected expert who would win this easily, but in the end, he was just a coward. In fact, he was more terrified than her! However, it felt good turning the tables and having the lady protect the man instead. "You can stay behind me if you're scared, boy. Young men like you aren't experienced, so you need strong women like us to protect you. You should be gentler, since strong women don't like fierce men.... If you're good, I'll buy you two sexy white T-shirts after the game is over, then you can show off your muscles!" Renee joked and touched Stefan's arms, realizing why men loved showing off their muscles.
Stefan touched her forehead. "You're not having a fever, so you must be possessed."
"Cut it out!" Renee smacked Stefan's hand away and said breezily, "That's the kind of thing men always say to women. There's no need to get upset."
"I'm not upset." Stefan watched her and said suggestively, "I don't mind men and women switching their roles in society. I found it rather nice to hide in your arms just now."
"Oh, get lost!" Renee pushed him away and kept looking around. She grabbed the white figure and found that it was just a doll in white clothes. Its eyes and mouth were open, and it had a creepy smile, so Renee quickly threw it away.
Most of the tables in the morgue were empty except for a half-covered freezer in the inner part of the room. There was a fabric on it that looked like a hospital gown.
"Look at that, Stefan!" Renee pointed at the freezer. "Do you think Jayla is in there?"
"It's very likely. "Stefan frowned. "We'll know once we check it out."
"Okay.." Renee swallowed. "Okay, let's check it out together."
"You're scared again?" Stefan smiled in amusement. "I'll check it out then!" He went to open the freezer, but found that it was stuck on something. He couldn't pull it out at all. He stared
at the freezer for a while, then his eyes widened in realization. He turned around and snapped his fingers at Renee. "It's finally time for us to use that iron hook!"
