Lin Yi's Home

"Older Sister," Tao Yuan quickly stopped the strange-looking girl who was about to leave, and said with a smile, "Actually, this Lin Yi is my younger brother's good friend. But I clearly heard my brother say before that his family is very well-off, and his parents are very kind. Even though Lin Yi's face was injured, they didn't look down on him or dislike him."

"How could that be! They're such a kind couple? That's the funniest thing I've ever heard."

"We all feel sorry for Lin Yi. It's such a tragedy that he's so young and has to suffer with parents like these."

"His family affairs are a complete mess; you'd better not get involved to avoid getting entangled in trouble."

After saying that, he left in a strange manner, while the sound of shattering glass in room 404 grew louder and louder.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a scream came from inside the door. The group was startled and crouched down to lower their center of gravity, quietly approaching.

As he walked, Wang Ding took off his glasses and channeled energy into them. The door in the glasses gradually disappeared, revealing the scene inside.

The group huddled together in front of the small glasses, squinting with difficulty to see. Ji Fengbai and Moonlit Night didn't join in the fun, while Bai Yang had his Little Rabbit stand on Wang Ding's head to get a better feel for what was happening.

Inside the door, a bizarre creature with an unusually large belly was drunkenly pouring alcohol into its mouth. The creature's head was pressed against the ceiling, hunched over and drooping, its figure exuding an extraordinary sense of oppression.

On the living room sofa sat a strange creature with a somewhat human-like form. This creature had a head of exquisite, jet-black curly hair, wore a red dress, and sat upright, slowly drinking water as if it were attending a banquet, rather than sitting on an old sofa.

The two completely ignored Lin Yi, whose face was covered in alcohol and whose head was covered in blood mixed with shards of glass.

The scream just now was from Lin Yi, but the matter wasn't over yet. After finishing his drink, the Male Specter glanced disdainfully at Lin Yi, who was clutching his head in pain, and then swung his hand, smashing the bottle hard at him.

"Bang!"

The heavy bottom of the bottle pressed down on his head, causing Lin Yi's body to tremble slightly. Several shards of the bottle were deeply embedded in his flesh, and red blood dripped down his cheeks, staining his red eyes and turning the whites of his eyes red.

Wang Ding, who was outside, instinctively wanted to rush forward to save the person, but Qin Rang and An Ying grabbed him.

"Let's take another look," An Ying said softly.

The mastermind behind this can't be easily killed; let's keep watching, maybe we'll find more clues.

"Disgusting thing! A burden!" The man spat, and seeing that a bottle hadn't knocked him down, he kicked Lin Yi hard in the stomach.

The kick was incredibly fast; Lin Yi had no time to react and was knocked to the ground, writhing in pain.

But no matter how painful his injuries were, the look in his eyes remained indifferent.

"You're a worthless piece of trash. How could I have raised such a thing? You're neither human nor ghost."

"Look at the other people in the neighborhood, how easy they are to manage, how understanding they are. And look at yourself—"

"I've spent so much money feeding and dressing you, and every time I come back I only see your deadpan face. Who are you trying to impress?"

"Seeing your face makes me regret it, regret ever bringing you back then! I'd rather you had died there, I've had the worst luck imaginable!"

Lin Yi stood up with a thud, and without dodging, he was hit on the shoulder by the wine bottle. After a dull thud, he bounced back to the ground.

A few shards of water splashed and landed on the woman sitting on the sofa. Her face darkened, and she slammed the water glass in her hand heavily onto the table.

Water droplets splashed all over the floor, dripping down the seams of the sofa.

"Lin Guang, stop with your veiled insults and sarcastic remarks. Aren't you just saying this to my ears? Isn't Lin Yi's current state all thanks to you?"

"What do you mean 'thanks to me'? You didn't lay a hand on it? You're innocent? Besides, it's really hard to say whose son this bastard is!"

"Lin Guang, what nonsense are you spouting!" the Female Specter.

"Wang Yumei! You dare say he's my son? You dare say it!!"

Lin Yi listened quietly to the two arguing with his head down, but his eyes were already fixed on the kitchen.

"Of course I'm afraid to admit it! I've shown you the paternity test results. I think you're just blind and pretending to be dead!"

The two bizarre creatures erupted into a fierce argument, which escalated into a physical fight.

The Male Specter wielding the bottle was extremely irritable, often picking up empty bottles from the ground and smashing them after saying just a few words. The petite Female Specter figure was equally formidable in combat, leaving bloody wounds with a single swipe of her claw.

Lin Yi stood in the corner watching them tear at each other and hurl insults, saying nothing and not stopping them, blood dripping from his face, staining his hoodie red.

"I have nothing to say to you!" The Female Specter slapped the Male Specter several times, her voice cracking, "It's all because of you! Why don't you just die?"

"Fine, then kill him! Kill him, and we'll go our separate ways!"

"You think I didn't think about it? Why don't you kill him? It's not the first time you've done this!"

Just as the two finished speaking, a knife suddenly appeared between the two strange creatures.

Lin Yi looked at the two of them; whether before or after becoming monsters, they often argued like this.

The advantage is that once you become a monster, you won't die no matter how much you fight or kill it, and you can also say certain things in anger.

He held a kitchen knife in his hand and thrust it forward. "Let's do it."

Seeing the Female Specter snatch the knife and slash at Lin Yi's head, the people outside the door couldn't sit still any longer.

"Bang bang!"

Wang Ding rushed forward and kicked the door several times, but Lin Yi was even faster, quickly dodging backward and snatching the cleaver from the Female Specter the instant she swung it, then precisely slashing at Female Specter head again and again.

With each slash, the Female Specter screams grew louder and louder. The blade struck the hard skull, leaving shallow marks. Her Female Specter, Long Hair was quickly sliced into pieces, and her face was covered in blood.

Lin Yi, however, remained unusually calm. He was like a madman, holding onto the knife tightly. Even when the Male Specter beside him reacted and tried to stop him, he still seized every opportunity to mechanically chop down the cleaver.

One after another, and then another.

At the same time, Lin Nieran, who was far away at home, suddenly paused and turned his head to look out the window as if he had sensed something.

"Let go! Let go of me!" The Male Specter punched several times, finally separating Lin Yi and the Female Specter.

The cleaver fell to the ground, and Lin Yi staggered backward, blood streaming down his face and around his ears. As if suddenly regaining his senses, he stared at the cleaver on the ground, panting heavily.

The Male Specter, seeing the Female Specter's injuries, angrily turned around to slap Lin Yi, but his hand was stopped in mid-air by a long whip.

An Ying grabbed the battered Lin Yi and pulled him behind her. Qin Rang and Tao Yuan rushed into the room. The brown Little Bear, along with the long whip, kicked the Male Specter, sending him staggering back two steps.
