Chapter 95: Stopping a Stalker

Chapter 95: Stopping a Stalker

The very next day, after his second professional fight, Alex was right back at work. In fact, he had actually taken the day off from university, specifically because a big event was happening. Mimi and her group were having a live concert, and Alex had a bad feeling that the stalker would attempt to make his move again.

Thus, Alex was up bright and early, dressed in his security uniform. Not only that, but knowing the stalker would be armed, he brought with him a stun gun and some zipties just to be safe. Which were both concealed on his person.

Nobody would ever know that Alex had just fought in the cage with a man the night before, because there was neither a bruise nor a cut on his face. And when he showed up at the concert venue, he did not even bother to brag about his victory. After all, he had more important matters to be concerned about.

Aside from his job of watching over Mimi and protecting her from any and all threats which might present themselves. Alex he had pulled a few strings with the label and gotten VIP tickets for his stepmother. Chae-Yeong was, after all, a huge fan of Mimi, and would consider such an opportunity to see her live, and in a VIP box no less to be an amazing gift. Which was exactly what Alex did for her.

And while he was making sure his beloved stepmother was properly settled, Alex noticed someone else that he was familiar with. The young police officer Chun-Hei was patrolling the venue, as if looking for the stalker among the crowds of those who had gathered. When Alex saw this, he approached the woman and offered her a cigarette.

“You can relax you know… There is no way that bastard is harming Mimi, at least not when I am around to protect her….”

Chun-Hei scoffed as she doubted the sincerity of Alex’s words. But she accepted the cigarette and took a deep inhale before puffing out the smoke. She was normally not one to smoke, but her life had been particularly stressful lately. After all, her father, the police chief, had been up her ass lately trying to get her to find the stalker who she let escape.

Yet there were no leads, and the only thing she could do was hope that he would show himself at this concert. But since Alex had approached her, and spoke of how he was protecting this girl, she had to ask some questions that had been on her mind lately.

Yet not only do you genuinely seem to be worried about this brat’s safety, but you even went so far as to prevent a gang-rape of a classmate, and protected her mother from an abusive and intoxicated ex. What’s your game?”

Alex grabbed the cigarette from the woman’s hand and took his own drag. After he had expelled the smoke from his lungs, he wore a smug grin before answering the woman’s question honestly.

“You want the honest truth? Not every woman is conquered the same way…. I know things about you that you might not even realize yourself. You’re not the kind of girl who wants to be protected by a big, strong man, nor do you really desire to be taken out on romantic dates. You’re the type who likes to be abused and humiliated by your partner…. I knew it the moment I first laid eyes on you… So yeah, I treat you differently than a pure and innocent girl like Mimi.”

The young blue-haired beauty dropped her jaw and gazed at Alex in disbelief. Did he just say he intended to conquer her by abusing and humiliating her? What nonsense was that? She was just about to say something in her defense when one of her colleagues stepped forward. It was the same detective that Alex had raped Chun-Hei in front of within her dreams.

He was stunned when he saw Alex, because he did not know the man from his dreams really existed. In fact, he dropped the two cups of coffee he had in his hands and pointed at Alex while yelling at him in disbelief.

“You! You fucking bastard! What the hell are you doing here?”

Chun-Hei, and Alex both looked at the man as if he had gone mental, where Chun-Hei was quick to interrogate Alex about how he knew the man.

“You two know each other?”

Alex, however, shook his head, and denied ever meeting the man, which was perhaps the most damning thing of all.

“Never met the man in my life. Who is he?”

It was only now that the detective realized that he had made an outburst about a man he had never met in real life, and had only ever seen in a nightmare which continued to plague his thoughts even now. He took a deep breath and forced himself to become calm before apologizing to Alex.

“I’m sorry… I mistook you for someone else… You are just eerily similar to that scumbag….”

Chun-Hei had no idea what the man was talking about, but Alex merely shrugged him off entirely before walking away.

“I should probably get back to my post. I don’t like being away from Mimi’s side for so long, especially in an event like this. See you late Police Girl…”

Chun-Hei couldn’t help but get flustered at the nickname Alex kept calling her and hollered at him in an almost pathetic voice, which he ignored entirely.

“It’s Chun-Hei God damn it! Chun-Hei! Get it right!”

Once Alex was gone, the detective looked at her with confusion and fear in his eyes before asking for an explanation from her.

“Chun-Hei, who is that man?”

Chun-Hei simply averted her gaze, and blushed in embarrassment, before speaking her thoughts aloud. Though her tone was not convincing.

“I guess you could call him a friend?”

The detective decided to leave the matter at that. Though he was deeply worried that the rapist from his dreams was actually a real person, and planned to investigate the man’s background when he got back to the station after this event was over.

As for Alex, he returned to his post, which was patrolling around the changing room. He had an incredibly eerie feeling in his gut, as if it were telling him something was about to go do sooner rather than later.

—

The concert had begun, and though Alex did not really enjoy K-pop, he had to admit, while watching Mimi perform, that the girl was almost the perfect idol, and the crowd loved her. In fact, the crowd was so enthralled with the girl’s performance that Alex truly believed he would never in a million years be able to captivate an audience this large as a professional fighter, like she had done with nothing more than singing and dancing.

Each man who had gathered to watch the performance, held glow sticks in their hands, and sang along perfectly to the lyrics of the song. And when the song ended, they would call out the name of their favorite idol, most of which screamed Mimi’s name at the top of their lungs. Something which obviously annoyed the other idols in her group.

Even some of the other security officers and police were not paying attention to their surroundings and were instead singing along to the lyrics of the songs that were being performed. Yet Alex was not so captivated, and instead he shook his head while maintaining his vigilance from backstage. At the same time, he commented on his so-called peers and their failure to do their jobs properly.

“Fucking amateurs!”

Alex was just about to reach into his pocket and pull out another cigarette when he saw something peculiar. A hooded fan had scaled past the barriers and jumped onto the stage. There was a knife in his hands, and he was headed straight for Mimi, while screaming at the top of his lungs something that was completely delusional.

“You cheating whore! I’ll never forgive you!”

The other idols quickly fled, while Mimi stood frozen and gazed upon her attacker like a deer caught in the headlights. She thought for sure that her life was over, but just when she was about to get stabbed in the heart, her guardian angel ran forward and tackled her attacker.

The man was on the floor, with Alex on top of him. He violently resisted, and even tried to stab Alex, when Alex pinned the man’s knife wielding hand to the ground, and reach around to his belt, where he pulled out his stun gun. He tased the crazed stalker in the neck, while cursing him out in a voice that Mimi did not hear.

“Get fucked, psycho!”

The man screamed in agony as his muscles seized up, causing him to drop the knife, and allowing Alex to restrain and ziptie him. Meanwhile, the crowd was panicking, and both the police and security worked together to prevent an all out riot.

It was not until Chun-Hee ran up to Alex, and secured the perpetrator, that Alex was able to check on Mimi’s condition, who was still frozen on the spot in disbelief, with her mic in her trembling hands. Alex grabbed hold of the girl’s shoulders and spoke to her in a panicked tone.

“Mimi! Are you alright? He didn’t hurt you, did he?”

Mimi gazed upon the man who had twice now attempted to kill her, wondering what she had ever done to make him so angry with her. It was not until Alex forced her to look at him, did she finally realize she was alright.

“Mimi! Look at me! Are you alright?”

After hearing these words, Mimi looked over at Alex, and how nervous he was, before silently nodding her pretty little head. Upon seeing that the girl was alright, Alex was so relieved that he unwittingly hugged the girl, and brought her close into his embrace, while whispering something into her dainty ears that even he had never thought that he would say to a girl.

“Don’t you ever scare me like that again…. You have no idea how worried I was about you!”

Mimi blushed when she heard these words. She did not know why, but now that she was in Alex’s embrace, she felt safer than she ever felt before in her life. Despite almost dying just seconds ago, an overwhelming sense of comfort spread across her heart and mind as she stood there and hugged Alex back.

Chun-Hei only got a glimpse of this and was astonished by Alex’s genuine, heartwarming gesture. In fact, for reasons she did not know, she pouted as she dragged the would be murderer away, while being particularly forceful.

“You are going away for a long time, you fucking psycho!”

Meanwhile, the stalker gazed upon Mimi’s warm and loving smile as she hugged Alex and felt like he had been cucked yet again, going so far as to bawl like a bitch and call out Mimi’s name over and over again.

“Mimi! Mimi! Mimi why?”

Once Mimi was safely escorted out of the area, the remainder of the concert was cancelled due to security concerns. And Alex parted ways with the girl, leaving her with a particularly warm and fuzzy feeling in her heart. This would persist for several days after the event, and would begin to cause her several problems at work.
