The Man Who Knew Too Much Book の小説・ストーリー

Luna Pov I blink my eyes open to an white unfamiliar room with many different people standing over me also in white clothes. I hear loud beeping coming from a box that's standing next to me. "Where the heck am I and who are all these people"?! I thought to myself my eyes wide as I searched around the room I finally landed on a face I recognized. "Everyone out except for officer Quinn," a tall man with a long white jacket said. Now it's just Officer Quinn, the tall man, and myself in the room. I look at them both but quickly avert my gaze down to my fiddling hands Officer Quinn is the first to speak.

Immediately I finished writing the last answer, the door flew open. "Betrayal!" The man screamed. Bernard walked up to me and led me out while the man kept saying I betrayed him. Without looking back, I entered the car and thought of what I just did. Realization dawned on me as I thought, Morgan may own a small organization but he is also an investigator. Why didn't he let me know? With my eyes shut, I inhaled and exhaled. "You are alright?" Bernard asked and I nodded my head. "The page," I said stretching out the page that I had with me.

When the woman looked down at it, she found the book spotless and without a title. Although she felt quite puzzled, she still opened the first page. The moment she saw the contents inside, panic swept over her. With a thud, she dropped the book in her hands. Upon seeing that, the man smiled, revealing his white teeth. "Do you like the Book of Death?" Suddenly, the overhead light began to flicker. To her horror, the young woman noticed the man's shadow contort into a squirming dark mass in the shifting light. Adding to the unease, the front desk bells jingled, though there was no wind.

The man answered and Rick frowned, He rushed and grabbed the man without pity. " Then where is the book of revelation you scumbag, Rumors have it that you have the Book of Revelation in your possession, If you don't want to tell me where it is, I will need the Book to find it out myself, Where is it? " Rick asked. " Someone stole it " The man answered and Rick aggressively smashed him hard on the ground, Rick's eyes darkened and his claws grew even more longer, Silent ensured as he ripped off all the hearts of everyone in the hall.

His fingers trembled slightly as he inserted the crypt key into the tiny hole in the metal-encased book. With a soft click, the lock unlatched. He exhaled, his pulse roaring in his ears. What secrets lie within these pages? What turn would his life take once he uncovered them? Would this book lead him to power… Or to ruin?

We needed all the evidence we could get against Mr Ranault even if it means coming to see a stranger alone in a library. The library had another floor for history and science while the bottom floor was for kids books and pretty much basic stuff. I searched around the ground floor of the library but there was only two teenagers,some women and two nerdy collage guys. There is no way any of these people had that manly voice I heard on the phone last night. Just as I was about to go upstairs,I saw a man seating in one of the chairs with a book in his hands titled: A little life. The man had brown skin like dark chocolate. He pulled the book down a little to be able to peep his eyes out and look

Her eyes met his, playful and piercing, and the small smile curling on her lips felt like an invitation, coaxing him closer, making each heartbeat echo loudly in his chest. As he took another cautious step, a loose floorboard beneath him shifted with a gentle pop. Startled, he bent down, revealing a hidden nook beneath the wood. Inside lay a leather-bound ledger, the pages yellowed and soft with age. His pulse jumped. The ledger was thick with secrets—payments from Michael to a man named Raven, cryptic notes that linked the house explosion to a carefully staged insurance scam. The weight of it pressed into his palm, a dangerous, thrilling secret promising the revenge he had long imagined.

The guards rushed in without hesitation, as expected. I moved past them, slipping through the door and into the chaos, unseen. The air inside was different. Old. Still. Books holding knowledge layered over centuries. Lies preserved as truth. Truth buried as myth. I reached the deepest part of the section and pulled the mechanism. Only a few knew about it. I was one of them. The door opened slowly. It made no sound. I slipped inside and pressed the mechanism to close it behind me. Cold air. Old books. The same chair.

I shouted, then went silent. The man with the broken nose fired. Three muffled thwips of the suppressed Glock echoed through the room. The bullets tore into the heavy velvet curtains, shattering the glass of the balcony door behind them. The wind from the storm rushed in, swirling the white foam into a chaotic, blinding vortex. He had revealed his position. I stood up, shielded by the black marble pillar of the shower. I didn't have a gun. I had the Red Ledger. I realized then that a book of this size, with its reinforced brass corners and three hundred pages of heavy parchment, wasn't just a record. It was a three-pound bludgeon.

If everything ran out, they would surely notice that the villa was completely fine. However, Sheryl and I had already formulated the plan to project the evidence of Zoey cheating on Michael with me on the screen. Who knew what kind of sick fetish Zoey had? But whenever she and Michael got it on, she always made Sheryl stand on the side to record them. Mrs. Johnson fainted, and Mr. Johnson hurriedly called for an ambulance. Jabbing a finger at Michael, Mr. Johnson let out a few more furious roars, but he couldn't get a single word out.
