Don't Kill Me

The corpse's voice was filled with sorrow.

It was many times stronger than the faint crying drifting over, making anyone who heard it unable to suppress a sense of guilt deep in their heart.

A glint flashed through Strong Man's eyes as he warily took two steps back.

Tian Qi, who had always been hot-tempered, also retreated at that moment.

The two moved almost in sync.

Only Zhou Han remained where she was, staring deeply at the figure who was clearly already a corpse.

As if by chance, Wang Ye glanced at Tian Qi and Strong Man, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

These two were interesting.

Then Wang Ye decisively stepped forward. An extremely sharp dagger slipped from his right sleeve and sliced across the figure's throat.

Blood continuously gushed from the figure's throat.

It quickly dyed the clothes all over the body red.

Yet, strangely, the figure did not fall. It continued glaring venomously at Wang Ye. "Why?"

Before the figure could finish speaking, Wang Ye stabbed it again without hesitation.

A spray of blood even splattered onto Wang Ye's face.

Wang Ye's expression did not change. Silently, he struck once, then again.

"Looks like I should bring a hammer next time."

Wang Ye even muttered thoughtfully to himself.

At last, the head was completely severed and fell to the ground. Its eyes still stared fixedly at Wang Ye, but it never spoke again.

The headless corpse finally crashed heavily to the ground.

"So it can't alter the body's functions? Everything still has to follow reality?"

Wang Ye pondered this. He had once encountered the most terrifying ghost, whose controlled corpses could attack even if only their heads remained, completely defying human anatomy.

But clearly, the ghost before him had not reached that level.

What Wang Ye did not see was—

The unattended young woman from the Logistics Department had been so frightened by the scene that she collapsed to the ground.

The blood covering the floor crazily stimulated her nerves.

After a long while—

"Ah!!!"

The young woman let out a piercing scream, then began to cry soundlessly.

Wang Ye instinctively looked over. His expression changed sharply, and he tried to stop her, but—

It was too late.

The young woman's silent sobbing abruptly stopped.

Then her face twisted, and she too forced out an ugly smile before collapsing to the ground.

Tian Qi and Strong Man, who had silently observed everything from behind, exchanged an almost imperceptible glance. Then Tian Qi stepped forward with a disdainful expression and coolly said to the young woman, who had already become a corpse, "Trash!"

A faint black light appeared around his foot, and then he stomped heavily down on the young woman's head.

At once—

Blood splattered everywhere.

"This is true power."

Tian Qi looked arrogantly at Wang Ye, his eyes filled with mockery.

Compared to that, Wang Ye's earlier act of swinging his knife several times made him look like trash.

"Idiot."

Wang Ye sneered at Tian Qi.

"If you use your supernatural ability like that, you'll be preparing for your own funeral within three months."

Wang Ye gave Tian Qi a cold look and casually mocked him before walking off into the distance.

Supernatural abilities—

He had one too.

But in Wang Ye's eyes, using it purely to show off was absolutely idiotic.

Tian Qi watched Wang Ye's back, his expression shifting uncertainly. He gritted his teeth, glanced discreetly at Strong Man, then headed deeper into the amusement park with him.

Meanwhile, the unusually quiet Zhou Han gazed at Wang Ye's back with shining eyes, as though she had seen some priceless treasure.

According to the map at the amusement park entrance, they should have reached a point near the center of the park.

Comparing their position with the massive Ferris Wheel before them, Wang Ye frowned slightly.

"Shouldn't this ghost's crying get louder the closer we get?"

No matter how he moved, the crying in his ears had not changed at all.

His original plan to locate the ghost's source through the crying had failed.

"Who's there!"

Suddenly, Strong Man's eyes flickered as he looked toward the carousel.

A figure flashed past and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Strong Man gritted his teeth and decisively chased after it.

Tian Qi followed without hesitation.

When Wang Ye arrived, he found Strong Man looking ferocious as he pinned a figure beneath him.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me."

Beneath Strong Man, the figure kept twisting his body and repeatedly begged for mercy.

"A human?"

Surprise flashed in Strong Man's eyes, and he released his hands.

"Damn it, I thought everyone was dead." Tian Qi spat to the side and said resentfully.

Wang Ye walked closer and discovered that the figure was an employee wearing an amusement park uniform.

"You... came to save us?"

The employee looked at Wang Ye and the others with a trace of hope in his eyes.

"Us?"

Wang Ye immediately caught the key point and looked at the employee.

The employee nodded, visibly nervous. "Yes... I'm responsible for maintaining the Ferris Wheel. When it happened, I was with several of the Ferris Wheel staff."

"How many people?"

Wang Ye asked with a slight frown.

"There were six of us at first. Now... there are only five left."

A deep sense of loss appeared on the employee's face.

Someone had died?

Wang Ye's expression changed abruptly.

Strong Man and Tian Qi seemed to realize something as well, exchanging a look.

Strong Man stepped forward and asked, "How long ago did he die? Where did he die?"

The employee jumped at Strong Man's reaction. Remembering how Strong Man had attacked him earlier, fear filled his eyes, and he instinctively took two steps back.

"J-just now."

"There's been crying in our ears the whole time."

"He... he couldn't hold it in and cried."

"Then... then he died." The employee seemed to recall something, his eyes filled with terror as his body trembled slightly.

"I really couldn't take it anymore, so I ran out and wanted to..."

"Wanted to find the exit."

Hearing the employee's words, Wang Ye's expression changed. He said gravely, "If you don't want the others to die too, take us to them immediately."

"Huh?"

The employee did not seem to understand Wang Ye's words at first and froze for a moment.

"Damn it, lead the way already."

At the side, the hot-tempered Tian Qi kicked the employee in the ass and cursed.

The employee looked terrified. Not daring to say another word, he silently led the way.

The group followed behind the employee toward the place where the others were hiding.

Zhou Han remained where she was, confusion flashing through her eyes. She carefully scanned the surroundings, found nothing, and followed after them.

Not long after everyone left—

On the Ferris Wheel, a Boy radiating an intense aura of sorrow appeared. Standing high above, he silently watched them.
