I was having dinner at my sis' place & during our tete-a-tete, the conversation veered towards the recent senseless butchering of a China lass for reasons yet to be dissected in upcoming court scenes. Who in his right mind would do such a heinous act?
Me: What's the whole point of chopping the dead person up? She's already dead.
Sis: (steeped in the school of superstitions)According to people who believe in the dead returning, this one wouldn't be able to do so in one piece to exact vengeance, for he/she would not have legs to walk back to take revenge.
Me: (rolls eyes) Heard of floating head? (tongue-in-cheek)
Sis: Killer can still run, since no hands to grab him.
Me: Well, I guess for someone who dares cut up a human body, I doubt he'll flinch at flying body parts. For all you know, he might use his daggers/lightsabers ala Darth Sidious to further slice or ward them off , short of making mincemeat out of the dismembered parts.
Gross.....morbid thoughts...as I reach out to scoop a piece of meat from my soup bowl...
Sis: I hear too that people staying in the same block where the butchering took place are now too scared to take the lift in the dead of night, whether alone or with company.
Me: Eee..rie... I think I better leave for home soon before night falls & human imaginations start running wild
or worse still, degenerate into brainless ghost gawkers ala ghost-spotters at Bukit Batok West as reported in yesterday's NewPaper http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/news/story/0,4136,90466,00.html?
