[EnigmaofSorrow]

Ray awoke when he felt someone shaking him.

B: Oi.. Ray... You die already ah?

R: Huh?

He sat up. Where did the Lady in Red go? He was naked, so he could not have dreamt it.

Ah Beng came in.

AB: Nabei Ray. Ask you run you don't want. See lah. Now you lan jiao swollen.

Ray looked down. He was not erect, but his cock was definitely bigger in girth.

Ahmad spoke.

A: Abang, you kena sex hantu, better go see bomoh.

R: No need. She told me where the fuckers we are looking for are.

AB: Simi lan jiao. You siao issit? Go bomoh or temple la. Kan ni na, kwee kum lan jiao you still want to be hero...

Ray got up and got dressed.

R: Follow me.

They did.

It was as though he knew exactly where they were.

True to her word, the Lady in Red had left some of the kidnappers alive. But they were catatonic. The dead ones were nearby. Ray was sure of it. But he decided not to look for them.

He called the police and waited for them to arrive as he and his friends watched over the kidnappers.

The police arrived and took their statements. Ray related how he had picked up the two dishevelled girls and heard their story and decided to check it out.

he staff sergeant chided him for doing such a dangerous thing but applauded his bravery. He also mentioned a story about a girl who had been kidnapped years ago and raped, killed and had herbody mutilated in an abandoned house in this jungle. The police found her headless and disembowelled body dress in shreds of what appeared to be a red cheongsam. Up till today, the case had not been solved.

Ray nodded and smiled to himself. The staff sergeant thanked him for his efforts.

Ray gazed dreamily up into the trees and caught sight of a flash of red. He squinted to get a better look.

There she was. The Lady in Red. She smiled and waved at him, before vanishing into thin air.
