"You can't tell them that Jing De was a psycho who killed many children, right?"
"Of course not. Uncle Jing died many years ago. I don't want this bastard to ruin his reputation," said Qin Chu.
"What shall we do?"
"To appease people's panic, you can find a scapegoat; otherwise, the rumors about vampires will cause disturbances in the city."
"That's true, but it's not my style to get a scapegoat… I'm not that low." Gao Ran was reluctant.
"Do you dare to tell people that the children were killed by someone who had died many years ago?"
"No."
"So, what else can you do?" Qin Chu glanced at Gao Ran.
"I can handle it. How about you? What will you tell Zhixin and his mother?"
"I'll say Uncle Jing left…"
"But it will give them hope that he'll come back again…" Gao Ran guessed.
"It's better to be hopeful than devastated. Zhixin and my mother-in-law are vulnerable and can't take a second blow."
