Su Ming'an paused for a moment, then turned and entered the room.
"Detective... Sir." Alice, still feverish, started rambling: "Lately, I've been dreaming that I will personally kill you... Why do I have such dreams? I must try to forget, forget..."
Su Ming'an fed her some medicine.
"If that day ever comes, I'll knock you down." Su Ming'an said.
"Then please... hit gently, I'm most afraid of pain." Alice said.
"You don't need to tend to the lilies in your backyard anymore," Su Ming'an said, "Morgan has retired to the countryside, he no longer wants those lilies."
"Is... is that so..." Alice murmured, "But I haven't had the chance... haven't had the chance to say goodbye to the teacher..."
Su Ming'an placed his sword beside him: "Alright, go to sleep now."
She clung to his sleeve tightly: "Detective sir... don't suddenly disappear again. Every time this happens, I fall asleep and you're gone."
