Spoiled by Eight Uncles

“Argh…”

The riverbank rang with cries and screams.

The sun set, and the garden was cool with a chilly breeze. Everyone was rigid with terror.

“What, what just happened?”

“Did I lose my mind?”

“Oh my God, forget about that! Save her, save her!”

Yet no one dared to go in anymore. The sight had been far too terrifying. If that blonde girl had really been a corpse… A corpse would have just dragged someone underwater. Who would dare go down there?

And if Blondie hadn’t been a corpse and a human being, that would mean intentional murder. She had waited for the woman to jump in… and then drag her underwater— absolutely no one was going to go down there!

Some of the people looked at Blake. Thank goodness he had stopped them, or they would have gotten into trouble along with the middle-aged man too.

Just then, the boat had just arrived.

The people on the boat could see better. One of the rescue team members, a young man, shouted, “We’ve found it! We found it…”

The team saw a struggling woman and what looked like a floating corpse, and prepared to go over and help.

A senior member called out, “Keep a close eye, Greg!”

The young rescue team member’s name was Greg. He was overwhelmed with emotion then, having finally found the dead girl’s body after searching for an entire day. The body was clad in clothes that matched the description of the girl who had drowned too…

The next second, he saw the corpse get up and drag the struggling lady underwater.!

“F*ck me!” Greg cried out in terror.

He could clearly see that it was a corpse floating. He had fished up a good number of dead bodies, and knew one when he saw one.

Corpses could drag people underwater?!

Just then, Greg felt as if his head was going to explode. Every hair on his body was upright.

“C-c-captain!” he cried out.
