Doctor Demon

Chapter 315 – The Cleaver (2)

Soobin hummed to herself as she walked through the corridor. It was empty at that time because the students were at their classes and she was on her way to the bathroom. She took out her phone to check up on her fansite.

"Five hundred thousand members," she nodded. "This is great! We're the biggest Minyoon fansite now! I might be able to sell more official mercs now. It'll boost sales for Yoonie too!"

She scrolled through the webpage as she walked towards the washroom when she bumped into someone.

"Ah!" She yelped and nearly fell back but someone held her hand and steadied her. Soobin looked up to see a woman with greyish hair. She was in her fifties and very elegant looking. The woman wore a red dress which hugged her hourglass figure.

"I'm sorry!" Soobin apologized.

The Lady studied the young girl, knowing very well who she was. After all, Soobin was also a person of interest for her.

"Hello, young lady," the Lady greeted with a small smirk. "Where is the Principal's office?"

"It's down the hall," Soobin replied. "Should I escort you there?"

"That's okay…" The Lady said. "Er…your name is…"

"Soobin. Kim Soobin!"

"Soobin." The Lady was still studying Soobin with her beady eyes as if she found her very interesting. 

"I will see you around, Soobin."

With that, the Lady walked away leaving Soobin very confused. Is she a new teacher? Soobin wondered but shrugged and turned away.

The Lady stopped in front of the Principal's office. She glanced at the CCTV cameras around and found a few. Raising her hand, she snapped her fingers.

Instantly, all the cameras in the school were turned off. She smirked and entered the Principal's office. It was time for their plan to come to fruition.

…

"What took you so long?" Baekha hissed at Soobin.

"I got caught up with some haters in the fansite," Soobin muttered as she took a seat next to Baekha. They were in maths class and listening to the teacher. Yoonmin was scowling at Baekha from afar because the latter had taken Soobin away to sit with her. Baekha showed Yoonmin the middle finger and took Soobin away to sit with her because she was terrible at maths.

"Are you missing your girlfriend?" Minyoon snickered. "Staying away from her for one class won't hurt you, little brother!"

"Say that one more time and I'll cut the prices of your merchandise in half," Yoonmin muttered.

"You'll face a loss!"

"No problem. I'll make you work thrice as hard for your new drama and earn back the losses."

Minyoon gasped. "You'd do that to your brother?" he pouted.

"Yes."

"Tch!"

Minyoon whined but his brother ignored him. He sighed and glanced at the window next to him. His gaze fell on a slim figure in red, walking past the gates but as soon as he blinked, the figure disappeared.

He frowned and rubbed his eyes to make sure that he was not mistaken but before he could check again, the door to the classroom burst open.

One of the assistants at the school came running in and whispered something into the teacher's ear. The teacher looked shocked and went pale like a ghost. She turned to the class and spoke in a calm manner.

"Students, there's been an emergency," she said. "All of you will have to line up at the field."

There was a loud murmur among the students. Baekha and Soobin were confused while the twins also looked bewildered.

"What happened?" Baekha asked. But no one had any answers. They were all divided into lines and led by the teacher to the field where the rest of the school stood. An ambulance had arrived and parked in front of the school while several paramedics came running out. They rushed towards the building while the students were in a state of confusion.

The twins immediately went towards the spot where the girls stood.

"What's going on?" Minyoon asked his brother who stood next to him.

"I don't know but the Principal isn't here." Soobin pointed out. "That's odd."

They looked around and realized that she was right. All the teachers had arrived but the Principal was not there…

"Out of the way!" One of the paramedics yelled. They were carrying a bodybag, wheeling it towards the ambulance. Yoonmin caught a glimpse of the corpse's face before one of the paramedics zipped up the bag.

"That's the Principal!" He revealed. "Is he dead?"

They watched in horror as the ambulance took away the Principal's body. The students were scared of what happened while the teachers tried to calm them down.

"Send the students home!" One of the teachers instructed. "Let the police take care of this!"

Soon, police cars parked up in front of the school. Several of the students stayed back while many were sent home. The twins and the girls remained to see if Jina was going to come and to their relief, she was one of the officers who arrived at the scene.

"Sis, what happened?" Minyoon asked. "How did he die?"

"They said it was a heart attack but the doctors will let us know," she replied. "Hobin is at the hospital. He'll let us know the details."

She turned to the girls. Baekha was confused but alright while Soobin was shaken.

"Are you two okay?" she asked.

"Yes," Baekha said. Soobin only nodded, unable to say anything. 

"I'm sure it was nothing," Jina tried to reassure them. "He had a chronic heart condition. Just relax."

But Soobin was in deep thought. Someone was looking for the Principal…

Then she blinked as if in a daze and her mind went blank. For a moment, she did not move.

"Soobin?"

Yoonmin's voice brought her out of her reverie and she looked at him.

"What's wrong?" he asked, feeling very concerned. 

"Nothing," she said. "Nothing is wrong."

Yoonmin frowned. He was sure that Soobin had zoned out for a minute. Jina also noticed the slightly blank look in her eyes.

"Are you okay? Do you know something?"

Soobin was confused. "No," she replied. "I don't know. This is all just too sudden."

Her head felt light and she had the nagging feeling as if she had forgotten something. Jina and the others frowned but Soobin shook her head.

"I'm probably just imagining things," she assured them. 

"You guys should go home and rest," Jina advised. "Twinnies, take them to your penthouse. Mom is there. She can help the girls until Jiwoon and Siwan arrive to pick them up. Take care of them."

"Okay," the twins nodded in unison. Yoonmin wrapped his arm around Soobin's shoulder and led her away while Minyoon walked alongside Baekha.

"Is she alright?" Baekha asked. "She looks a little out of it."

"She's fine!" Minyoon said. "But the Principal…it was sudden."

He glanced back at the school. For some reason, a lot of things are happening there as if the place attracted negative energy.

"Let's go home and think," he said, tearing his eyes away from the building. "We should stay careful."

Baekha nodded and followed him to his car.. The group got in and drove off towards the Hwangs' penthouse.
