I'm So Scared

"Whew, finally killed him…"

Looking at the pile of rotten flesh on the ground, the freak who had finally closed his blood-red eyes, Xiao Xiao finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

Now he could finally be sure that this person was dead.

Before he had completely killed him just now, Xiao Xiao hadn't relaxed in the slightest.

Xiao Xiao knew the saying that you can easily capsize in a sewer. With a guy this unfathomable, even cutting off his head might not be safe.

And now, he could be sure that this guy was dealt with, but he still felt lingering fear.

A thousand-point veteran is different after all…

He had actually felt pretty confident all along. Although he hadn't officially started the second stage of enhancement, the Mind Burst ability could already allow him to cope with many crises. And the coordination of Extreme Sensitivity with Mind Burst could allow him to exert unimaginable and excellent instincts. And the playing effect of the Old Gramophone was surprisingly effective…

With so many advantages, he was almost beaten to death by the other guy?

Xiao Xiao felt scared just thinking about what he had just experienced.

He was clearly just a newbie, so why did he encounter such a terrifying and perverted opponent?

He had just heard him say that he was also an Outsider, but if he was an Outsider, why was he so full of malice towards him?

He took a few deep breaths and calmly analyzed the situation.

He still needed to find Yang Jia and the others. Perhaps only they could explain all of this.

"Uh…"

Just as he was thinking this, Xiao Xiao turned around and saw Little Four hanging upside down at the window, his eyes dull.

"You…"

Seeing a veteran come over, Xiao Xiao was a little excited for a moment.

"Whoosh…"

Little Four, who was hanging upside down on the window, suddenly shuddered the moment Xiao Xiao looked over.

He almost fell from the window, but his body control was excellent. He twisted and climbed, and successfully squeezed into the office. He stood firmly, his hands pressed against the outside of his thighs, and bowed respectfully: "Xiao-gege, hello."

"?"

Xiao Xiao was a little surprised, and his emotions were disrupted for a moment.

Although he was indeed bigger in terms of build and height, he was just a newbie…

Why was he so polite to him?

But it was only for a moment, and he thought it was just that Little Four was polite. He quickly said, "That's great, you're finally here…"

As he spoke, he pointed to the pile of rotten flesh by the wall and said, "Someone just attacked me."

"Scared me to death…"

"…"

Looking at Xiao Xiao's terrified expression, Little Four took a step back without showing any emotion, his legs trembling slightly:

"Yes."

His voice trembled, but he tried to control it, and said seriously: "I saw it all just now, you were really scared…"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the corpse by the wall… if you could still tell it was a corpse.

His voice quickly lowered, and he raised his hand to swear: "Xiao-gege, don't worry, I'm tight-lipped. I definitely won't say anything I shouldn't!"

"?"

Xiao Xiao's emotions were interrupted all at once.

Little Four was a veteran after all, so why did he look so weird?

He was a newbie, after all, and had been so frightened, but he didn't even offer a word of comfort?

Just as he was thinking this in his heart, he and Little Four looked at each other, the atmosphere tense and a little awkward, when suddenly they heard the roar of an engine outside the window. Little Four was as if he had been rescued, and quickly turned to look out the window. He saw a black motorcycle and a white SUV speeding in from outside the dock. As they approached the office building, they stopped together, and Yang Jia and Ruan Ruan appeared.

"That's great, you're finally here…"

Little Four leaned on the window and waved to them vigorously, looking like he was about to burst into tears of joy:

"Scared me to death…"

"…"

"Why does he look more eager for them to come than I do?"

Xiao Xiao fell silent for a moment. Little Four seemed to have expressed all the tension he should have, and said all the words he should have said…

Those were clearly his lines…

Just as he was thinking this, he saw Ruan Ruan jump in directly from the window like a cannonball.

While she was still in the air, she had already seen the pile of rotten flesh in the corner, and the Pain Hound that was biting the pile of rotten flesh… After all, Xiao Xiao was just a newbie. Although he felt that he should be dead, he still hadn't ordered the Pain Hound to let go of him.

A thousand-point veteran, after all…

…What if he was faking death and suddenly attacked him?

But this scene caused Ruan Ruan's pupils in mid-air to shrink sharply, and her figure plummeted to the ground.

"Not finished eating yet?"

Then, she stood up straight and said to Xiao Xiao, "Xiao-gege, hello. You're okay. That's really great..."

"?"

A question mark popped up in Xiao Xiao's head. What's wrong with Ruan Ruan?

He was just too confused to ask anything when Yang Jia, wearing a white trench coat, walked in from the office door. The moment she entered the chaotic office, her pupils also contracted slightly, but she controlled her expression very well. Imperceptibly, her eyes had already swept over the pile of rotten flesh in the corner, the Pain Hound biting the rotten flesh, and Xiao Xiao beside it.

Xiao Xiao seemed very calm at this time, half of his body stained with blood, but his expression was very calm.

...What else could he do if he wasn't calm? Ruan Ruan and Little Four stole his lines.

"I..."

Seeing Yang Jia come in, Xiao Xiao immediately wanted to ask.

He really had too many questions in his heart.

"What Ruan Ruan said is actually true..."

Her gaze swept over the three Pain Hounds: "Has it already started feeding in front of us?"

But unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Jia came in, she saw the three Pain Hounds and was also stunned.

She was slightly startled, then frowned and glanced at them.

"Woof..."

The muscles of the three Pain Hounds suddenly exploded, and they released their mouths at the same time, taking a few steps back.

They lay on the ground, full of hostility... and fear.

Only the husky tilted its head slightly, as if it didn't know what fear was, looking like it wanted to come up and snuggle.

"We'll talk about other things when we get back."

As if seeing the countless questions in Xiao Xiao's heart, Yang Jia drove away the three Pain Hounds, then squatted beside the pile of rotten flesh, observed it slightly, and then reached out to prop open his eyelids and took a look. Her face darkened, and she nodded to Xiao Xiao.

She also looked at the honest Little Four beside him:

"Little Four, stay here and dispose of the body properly... Don't leave behind his card."

"..."

"Yes."

Little Four immediately agreed, sounding a little happy.

Xiao Xiao was a little puzzled: "He looked very timid just now, how come he's so brave now?"

"He's not afraid of disposing of the body himself?"

"..."

There were too many questions at this time, so this point was nothing. Xiao Xiao also said to Little Four, "Sorry for the trouble."

Then he quickly followed Yang Jia downstairs.

"He actually said 'sorry for the trouble' to me..."

Little Four stood there, shocked in his heart: "Is this a warning to me to handle it properly?"

After going downstairs, Xiao Xiao immediately got into Yang Jia's white SUV. After all, half of his body was covered in blood. If he took Ruan Ruan's car, it would inevitably be a bit ostentatious. Sitting in Yang Jia's car, at least passersby couldn't see him.

In the car, turning his head to look, he saw that Warehouse One was still in chaos.

The Foreman and other workers were still maintaining their monster forms, standing there silently and twisted.

It seemed that some eyes were staring at him, but they seemed to be afraid of something and didn't come over.

"Heh, the Red Eyes Club..."

Yang Jia lit a cigarette, thought about it, and then stuffed it into Xiao Xiao's mouth.

When she saw the workers outside the car window in Warehouse One maintaining their monster images, her face seemed much colder.

"I..."

Xiao Xiao, with a mint-flavored cigarette with the scent of lipstick in his mouth, was full of surprise and wanted to speak.

But Yang Jia had already started the car and said in a low voice, "You've done very well. Don't worry, I'll handle the rest."

Xiao Xiao didn't know what to say for a moment.

Even though there were still countless questions in his heart, he inexplicably felt a sense of peace.

The white SUV drove out of the dock, and Ruan Ruan followed behind on her black motorcycle. No one dared to stop them. She carried Xiao Xiao and drove directly through the large city, gradually arriving at the Uptown District, a high and lush area.

Before them, a cluster of white buildings nestled among the trees came into view, and Yang Jia drove straight through a small gate.

After parking the car, Xiao Xiao followed her out, looking around with curiosity. "Where is this?"

"East Mountain Sanatorium..."

Yang Jia answered softly, offering no further explanation as she led Xiao Xiao and Ruan Ruan, who had also gotten out of the car, forward. Xiao Xiao could only follow closely behind. It was clear that Yang Jia was very familiar with the place. Pedestrians passed by frequently, greeting her politely. Surprisingly, although they noticed the bloodstains all over Xiao Xiao, they only seemed mildly surprised and didn't ask any questions.

As they approached a building, they encountered a middle-aged woman wearing a nurse's cap, who nodded at Yang Jia with a smile:

"Dr. Yang, bringing in another patient?"

"..."

Yang Jia nodded back and continued leading them inside.

"What exactly is going on?"

Xiao Xiao, increasingly astonished by everything he was seeing, couldn't help but ask Yang Jia.

"What's so strange about it?"

Yang Jia glanced back at him and said, "We all have our jobs in this city, don't we?"

"My job is as a psychiatrist here."
