Lincoln sighed, "This is a serious matter, she should cooperate with you it is just that when you interrogate the assassin take care of Arci or she may be frightened"
"Rest assured Mr Lincoln, I'll take good care of her" Richard reassured him.
"Thank you" Lincoln bored him gratefully and left with Dawn and Runa.
Richard glanced at Flow, "Flow go back" He told her.
"You guys should be careful," Flow told him.
"We will be fine," Richard replied.
Flow smiled and left too.
Arci and Richard were left alone.
Richmond approached him immediately.
"Commander," He said.
"Where is Samuel?" Richard asked.
"He is locked up on the first floor," Richmond replied.
Because Samuel is the biggest suspect They had to detain him because they had no evidence.
"Let's go take a look" Richard said and they walked towards the first floor together.
Richard glanced at Arci and teased her.
"You were crying your eyes out, are you that frightened?" He asked.
"No I wasn't," she denied.
"You even rubbed your tears on his clothes but still denied that" Richard replied.
"You can't…." She hit on his shoulder.
Richard gasped in pain.
"Did I hit you so hard?" Arci asked, surprised.
Richard smiled.
"I'm fine, let's go," He replied.
Arci didn't believe him. She stopped him and opened his clothes.
She gasped when she saw that his white shirt was filled with blood.
Richard could only look at her helplessly.
"Why didn't you say anything? You are so seriously wounded" Arci asked.
He removed his suit, left with his white shirt.
"Because i saw you were all caring about Bremo, moreover, this minor injury is nothing I'll deal with it by myself let's go" Richard replied her and continued walking
Her heart ached when she heard this.
'Why is my heart aching like this?' She asked.
She stopped him again.
"I'll ask the hotel for some alcohol and bandages to help you dress this wound first" She told him and turned to leave.
"No…" Richard tried to stop her but she already left.
He smiled that the wound is worth it then if it will incur her care and worry.
He glanced at Richmond, "You go there first" He told him.
Richmond gave a nod and left.
He smiled happily and walked towards the direction Arci walked to.
He met Arci on the way, Arci held his hand and led him towards a corner to treat his wound.
"You need to take off your shirt" She told him when he was looking at her.
He buttoned his shirt.
Arci glued down and stared at the alcohol and bandages in her hand.
Richard chuckled when he saw this.
"You dare not even look at me. How are you going to dress my wound?" He teased her.
Arci glanced at his face, "Of course I dare" she replied to him calmly.
He smiled and opened his shirt slowly because of the pain.
Arci noticed him and helped him take off his shirt.
She glanced at the scars on his body with her heart aching, how many times has he been in pain.
Richard noticed her eyes, "Forget it, there are too many scars I am afraid you will be sacred let me do it"
"I'm not scared to sit still," Arci replied.
"It will hurt a bit. Bear with it" she told him before she started treating his wound.
"Okay" Richard replied.
She started treating his wound. He flinched a little and closed his eyes tightly when she started treating his wound.
She treated his wound gently.
"These cut wounds of yours must have hurt more right?" She asked.
"Not really"
"There are so many scars on your body, you must have always rushed to the front in battles aren't you afraid of death?" She asked.
"Behind me are my brothers in arms i can't draw back even if i die, I am the Marshal i must protect them" Richard replied.
'No wonder as a young leader he can make the Bush army loyally follow him to fight here and there' Arci said in her mind.
"You protect them, who protects you then?" She asked him.
"Luck is on my side, I will be fine," Richard told her.
He showed her a scar on his left chest, "Do you see this scar? I got it when i was 15 years old"
"15 years old ?" She asked in surprise because the scar is a gunshot scar.
He nodded, "Do you know how it felt when I got shot?" He asked him
Arci shook her head.
"It was fun. At the beginning I didn't feel any pain. I felt I was hit hard by something. The wound felt numb and hot. If it hadn't been for the blood that oozed out from the wound I wouldn't have known I got shot but several seconds later, it became extremely painful. You don't know how it feels at all. At the time, I could even smell the wound. It smelt like roast meat, " Richard smiled.
"How did you pull through?" Arci asked
"Gradually, I got used to the pain," He replied.
Arci forced out a smile and finished cleaning his wound.
She started bandaging the word. Their faces closed to each other, Richard looked at her face as she focused on bandaging his wound.
She lifted her face when she noticed his gaze, their faces closed to each other, their hearts beating in rhythm. Her face reddened, she snapped out of her trance and put a pressure on his wound causing him to gasp in pain.
"Are you going to take my life?" He asked.
"Of course not" she replied calmly and finished bandaging his wound.
"Since you don't want my life, do you want me?" He asked her.
