"Qiu, are you all right?"
Luo Ge ignored Xue Tinghai, who lay on the ground like a corpse, and instead stepped forward to support the unsteady Qiu Taoyu.
Qiu Taoyu was not seriously hurt. The cost of using the Sin Object had long since faded, and she was merely weak after being trapped in the drainage outlet for nearly an hour.
She knew the situation was urgent and there was no time for idle words. Turning back to glance outside the cafeteria, she froze.
Now, only one person remained outside the cafeteria.
Shan Xin's figure had been completely covered by that black umbrella. He was still posed as if running, yet he had been frozen in place.
A thin, pitch-black mist seeped from beneath the umbrella, drilling into his body through his pores like countless threads. He was clearly conscious throughout the process, because his body kept trembling.
Extreme terror and pain filled Shan Xin's unfamiliar face. Beneath his pale skin, twisting Black Lines could faintly be seen burrowing about.
Only one Black-clothed person had come to the cafeteria, and its first target was this living person who had failed to hide in a reasonable location.
However, Qiu Taoyu suddenly noticed something unusual.
Shan Xin had not been erased immediately. The Black Lines entering his body seemed to be conducting some kind of physical inspection.
After glancing back, Luo Ge took note of this information and hurriedly pulled Qiu Taoyu deeper into the cafeteria.
Yet at first glance, he discovered that Xue Tinghai, who had previously "flown" into the first-floor hall, had somehow gotten back on his feet.
Not only that, he had sat down at one of the dining tables, both hands placed before him as his body trembled as though he were writing something on the tabletop.
