Gift

[Nursing Home Lobby]

Exaggerated cracks appeared one after another, spreading to the feet of the two people on site.

Yu Ze smiled and lightly skipped away, gesturing for Anna to follow him out of the building.

Although Anna wanted to wait for Luo Di to leave together, she had to retreat given the current situation. If such a huge building collapsed, even her body wouldn't be able to withstand it.

The two retreated to the outermost edge of the nursing home, to the wreckage of the bus that was still burning with small flames, and looked at the crumbling nursing home building.

Yu Ze had already started clapping.

"You're really something, folks. Aside from our very limited help, you've basically managed to kill this kind of [anomaly] that could trigger a large-scale regional event all by yourself."

Anna's Focus Point, however, was not on that.

"If the nursing home collapses completely, will Luo Di is at the bottom, be in danger?"

"Don't worry! As long as he wasn't crushed to death immediately, we'll pull him out even if we have to use our hands to move bricks."

Based on experience, once the Pseudo-Human dies, the Corner Space dissipates, and the three of us will be directly sent out; there shouldn't be any major problems.

"Um."

"Let me do some calculations to see if there is any risk of my fellow villagers being crushed to death."

Yu Ze once again manipulated the Minor Six Rens divination method.

However, the result surprised Yu Ze. His eyes behind his sunglasses widened more than ever before, and he became more serious than ever before.

He quickly changed the algorithm and recalculated it using the Nine Gods, but the result was almost the same.

"Um?!"

The mother's body, resembling a mummified corpse, was embedded in the ceiling.

The flesh and blood covering this space all turned dull and lifeless.

Everything was exhausted because of the birth of this child.

According to Isabella's original plan, all of this was prepared for her. In just five more days, she would give birth to the true Perfected Form, which would have all the characteristics.

Now everything is gone.

Only a withered, emaciated form remained. She fell from the ceiling and crashed to the ground, unable even to crawl.

Snap!

A foot covered in amniotic fluid and mucus stepped on her face, sometimes gently rubbing, sometimes forcefully.

"Sister Isabella ~ You didn't even notice my presence all this time? Including when I disguised myself as you and secretly absorbed energy inside the mother's body."

Or is it that my Luo Di is too attractive to the opposite sex? Is your Focus Point entirely focused on him?

However, you still worked very hard! Your blood and muscle reserves, amniotic fluid quality, and total nutritional intake are all much better than before I left.

Even though there was no possibility of reversing the situation, Isabella still stared intently at the other person, at the face she loathed so much, with a mixture of confusion and hatred.

Puzzled, Wu Wen, who had clearly failed in the selection process, was here.

Whatever the reason

Isabella now wants to survive.

The only way she can survive now is to threaten Wu Wen with words so that she won't dare to kill her.

Wu Wen!

If you kill me, the Sisterhood will know of my death immediately. They will hunt you down to the ends of the earth, and even Grandmother will not let you go.

"Huh? Why?"

Wu Wen looked puzzled and bent down in an exaggerated manner, almost pressing her face against the other person's.

Isabella continued her verbal assault, "You should know very well that the sorority's 'brand' will mark the killer; no one can avoid it, let alone you."

"No~ Sister, don't you understand yet?"

Wu Wen maintained a puzzled expression, looking at the pitiful person at her feet as if she were looking at an idiot.

Faced with stares and questions,

Isabella paused for a moment,

She seemed to have figured it all out, understood everything! Even though her body had little life left, she began to struggle frantically out of despair!

However, such struggles were completely futile; the foot pressing on her face did not budge an inch.

"It seems you've finally come to your senses, sister. After all, I was born from you!"

I am you.

Your identity is very useful. I'll use it to make a good profit later and have some fun in the sorority.

Do you remember when we first met?

We drank a lot back then and decided to be best friends for life! Now my body still contains a part of you, and I will live on forever, so please rest in peace, sister.

"Thank you again, sister, for providing the storage space and the Aging Curse; I really love both of these abilities."

"Impossible! It's impossible for Pseudo-Human to devour each other's pituitary glands... you..."

A toe covered in mucus suddenly shoved into her mouth, blocking her throat and silencing her words.

Before she died, Isabella looked at Wu Wen one last time.

On the other person's seemingly fresh and tender face, there appeared to be stitches, and I could also smell a hot scent similar to that of Luo Di.

But before she could sort all of this out...

An energy of aging traveled directly from Wu Wen's toes into her body.

Isabella aged rapidly and turned to dust completely, leaving not even the most basic pituitary gland.

Or rather, her pituitary gland had long since withered along with her mother's, and was completely inherited by the newborn class monitor.

La la la~

He was humming a cheerful little tune.

With hands behind their backs,

They returned to the place of piled-up rotting flesh with dance-like steps.

Wu Wen only needs to gently step on the surface of these rotten meats with the soles of her feet, and the nutrients will be absorbed in a short time, quickly turning into pieces of shrunken jerky.

Luo Di, who had been buried underneath, was also exposed, but he was already unconscious due to his severe injuries.

The moment they saw each other,

Wu Wen also completely withdrew from the joy of new life.

Her expression seemed to have returned to what it used to be.

The smile on her face was no longer a fake one, but a gentle, genuine smile.

Step forward,

Kneel down on both knees,

He bent down and pressed his lips to his cheek.

"Luo Di, wake up! A classmate is here to see you."

When I opened my eyes, I saw the familiar bedroom and the mask design that Luo Di had personally designed, which was pasted next to my desk.

The hands of the alarm clock on my bedside table were almost at noon.

Push open the door,

My older sister also came out of her bedroom. She seemed to know that we would have guests today, so she changed into a beautiful long dress.

There are already many main dishes on the dining table, as well as coconut juice and orange juice that were just bought from outside, to welcome guests to the home.

The mother, wearing an apron, had just come out of the kitchen to open the door for the guests.

"Come in, please. The house isn't big, so please make yourselves at home."

Class monitor Wu Wen led Gao Yuxuan and Anna to the door, with the very shy Xiao Ying following at the very back.

"Thank you, Auntie. This is a gift for you, and also for my uncle and sister."

The class monitor put a necklace on Luo Di's mother, then gave another tie Gift Box to his father who was busy in the kitchen, before finally returning to the living room area.

"Luo Di! Happy birthday! Your present will be a little late... This must be your older sister, she's so beautiful!"

The class monitor immediately stepped forward, took the sister's hand, and presented her with a specially prepared lipstick set, just like a distant relative.

Gao Yuxuan also walked in, carrying a birthday cake in one hand and gently patting Luo Di's back with the other.

"Happy birthday."

Looking at the scene before him, for some reason, Luo Di felt a sense of familiarity, as if it had happened before.

Everyone quickly gathered around the table, and the mother looked at her son with great satisfaction, never expecting him to make so many good friends.

"Oh right, Luo Di, there's a plate of steamed sausages that I forgot to bring out. Go get it."

"Good."

This sentence was also familiar, and it made Luo Di feel uncomfortable.

But he still instinctively went to the kitchen to look for the so-called sausage.

But no matter how hard he searched,

The sausage that my mother was talking about was nowhere to be found.

Suddenly,

He seemed to remember something, and fragments of blood-red memories surfaced, suggesting that something terrible was about to happen outside.

Thinking of this, Luo Di rushed out of the kitchen.

However,

The blood-red images that flashed through their minds did not occur, and everyone continued to happily eat lunch.

The mother slapped her thigh, "Oh dear! The sausage seems to be on the shoe cabinet. I just tossed it there when I opened the door."

Following his mother's directions, Luo Di arrived at the shoe cabinet by the door.

The sausage is indeed here.

Two photos were also hanging nearby.

One of them is a family photo taken a few years ago.

One photo shows four friends at a hot pot restaurant.

A faint smile graced Luo Di's face.

He returned to the dining table.

They ate and chatted.

I laughed as I watched.

This scene seemed to have never been seen before in this home, and time flew by amidst the laughter.

Click! The light goes out!

The class monitor brought a birthday cake with lit eighteen-year-old candles to the table.

Everyone sang "Happy Birthday" together to celebrate Luo Di.

The class monitor sat down next to him when the song ended and whispered:

"I haven't given you the gift yet."

What gift?

After observing for a while, Luo Di did not find that the squad leader was holding anything.

Just as he was wondering what kind of gift it would be,

Soft, warm lips pressed against my cheek.

A gentle whisper brushed against my cheek and entered my ear.

"Happy birthday, Luo Di..."

The moment the lips moved away, the image cut out.

Luo Di woke up again.

This time, however, I didn't wake up suddenly, but rather woke up naturally.

Although all he could see was a cold hospital room, his body felt warmer than ever before...
