The entire city's been on their toes because of the recent killings. Brutal murders, bodies mutilated beyond recognition. It's definitely enough to send a chill down anyone's spine. The curfews have only made people more anxious. It's like an outbreak of some sort of disease or something, except everyone's hiding from this supposed psychopathic serial killer instead. To make things even more depressing, it's all the news is covering right now. News reports on the victims families and how they're coping, brutal in-depth descriptions of the bodies, speculations, everything. Everything's been spreading like wildfire. And it's making you feel sick.
"The killer's got some impressive skills, huh, honey? I wonder what his motive might be," Ryuhei chuckles as he speaks, holding you close to him on the couch as he turns the TV off. He doesn't want you watching any more of that lest you become even more squeamish. You can't help but notice that his tone sounds a little too enthusiastic. Who even describes such barbaric methods of killing as 'impressive'? Ryuhei pays it no mind though, only shaking his head and laughing softly as he pulls you closer onto his lap and kisses your forehead. No one would suspect that such an affectionate husband would be a bloodthirsty murderer. Not even his own spouse.
