You Really Are a Pair of Good Friends

Shanshan shook her head, and then she told her about the strange things she had encountered before.

"I was walking with my two friends the whole time, but suddenly they started acting really strange."

"Not only were their bodies ice-cold, but I couldn't feel their breathing or heartbeats. Although I could talk and communicate with them, their behavior was very strange. It gave me the feeling that they were trying to speak, but because they couldn't understand true human thought, they became very eccentric."

"Stop talking..." President Liang trembled with fear.

He looked at the surveillance footage, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

"Are you really not joking?" President Liang asked Shanshan, still unable to believe it.

Shanshan shook her head. "I'm serious. Go ahead and call the police. I want to know where my real friend went."

Mr. Liang was sweating profusely, wiping his brow as he called the police.

He muttered to himself, "It's daytime, why is this happening?"

Perhaps because she had experienced too many frights, Shanshan calmed down after her guess was confirmed.

"We don't know for sure, but I hope they're alright."

The Xia Kingdom takes unusual events very seriously.

Basically, less than ten minutes after Mr. Liang finished making the call, a team of police officers arrived.

First, they dispersed the tourists queuing in front of the haunted house, and then notified the amusement park manager to suspend the entire amusement park and allow all tourists to leave.

The tourists were initially angry when they received the notice of park closure, having finally managed to come and have some fun. However, after learning that an unusual incident had occurred at the amusement park...

Everyone was eager to leave.

"What's going on? Is the safety buff not working anymore?"

"It's still daytime, how could there be any unusual events?"

"How long did the last buff last? Has it already expired?"

I wonder how many people are involved this time.

"I hope they're alright." "Hurry, hurry! If we're too slow, we'll get caught up in it too!"

The crowd moved out much faster.

Fortunately, police officers were on site directing traffic, which successfully evacuated all the visitors from the amusement park.

Shen Yu and Evil Mouth stood at opposite ends of a room.

The distance between the two people is at least fifty meters.

If the space weren't so limited, Evil Mouth would probably want to stay hundreds of meters away from him.

Shen Yu glanced at him.

Evil Mouth thoughts kept popping out from the box above his head.

[What should I do? We're so close, the strange feeling inside me is starting to stir again.]

[Tsk, I can't suppress it anymore, why did the eeriness turn out like this?]

[Damn it, why do I feel my face turn red, my heart race, my blood rush, and a surge of desire well up whenever I see this person? My mind is almost spinning.]

Is it because the weird thing inside your body wants to eat me?

Shen Yu watched speechlessly as this person practically pressed against the wall, as if wishing he could pass right through it and get as far away from him as possible.

If he weren't trapped in that room, he probably would have already run out the door.

[If this keeps up, I feel like I'm going to eat him up.]

Evil Mouth felt a wave of unease rising within me.

But on the surface, he tried his best to maintain calm, putting on the image of an introverted and shy otaku who was not good at speaking.

Although Evil Mouth is always associated with wrongdoing and doing bad things, there is a fundamental difference between doing bad things and cannibalism.

He could do something bad without batting an eye.

But the thought of him eating people is Evil Mouth much for me to bear.

[If it really eats people, wouldn't it become assimilated with the supernatural? In that case, it would be no different from becoming a real monster.]

They Anomaly Tamer, controlling and using supernatural abilities, yet they resist assimilating with these supernatural beings and fear the resurgence of these beings within their bodies.

They acted recklessly and committed all sorts of evil deeds.

Yet, they also fear becoming those mindless monsters, losing themselves, and becoming prey to others.

Shen Yu nodded inwardly. Good. You still want to be a decent human being. Keep it up and control yourself.

Shen Yu slightly pulled down his mask, feeling uneasy, and pulled up the hood of his clothes to cover his head, obscuring the upper half of his face.

Shen Yu coughed. "It seems we've fallen into a strange place."

Evil Mouth, he scratched his head. On the wall of the room, a line of words was written in blood, "[Are you friends?]"

[This is a room where only friends can leave. If you are not friends, you will be trapped here forever.]

Friend? How could a Anomaly Tamer him make friends with an ordinary person?

No, the Anomaly Tamer has no friends.

As for the Love Resentment, that was with his partner, a member of an organization, not a friend.

He thought this with Evil Mouth.

But that's how the rules are here. Sometimes, the rules are above everything, and Evil Mouth try to use their abilities to forcibly destroy this place.

However, after trying it once, they found that they couldn't even remove a layer of paint from the wall, so they had no choice but to give up.

"We're friends," he admitted through Evil Mouth.

The wall flickered, and another line of text appeared. "[Then please answer one question: When did you become friends?]"

Evil Mouth at Shen Yu and said, "Today."

Shen Yu smiled and replied, "Today."

[Please describe the other person's favorite food, color, and flower.]

He was sweating Evil Mouth. How could he, a complete stranger, possibly answer these questions?

[If you answer incorrectly, then... you'll remain Lilith's toys forever.]

He uttered a vulgar Evil Mouth.

Shen Yu crossed his arms, his fingers seemingly tapping on the ornaments on his clothes with a rhythmic sound.

Evil Mouth, I realized this was... Morse code?

He immediately listened attentively and then said, "He doesn't have any particular favorite food, but he prefers sweets. As for colors, he likes black, and his favorite flower is blue roses."

The man with the Evil Mouth immediately followed suit and typed a message in Morse code.

Even without listening to the other party's Morse code, Shen Yu knew their preferences. After all, he was the one who created the other party's persona, and no one could understand them better than their creator.

Shen Yu replied, "His favorite food is steak, and he likes red and daffodils."

The rules fell silent for a moment.

No way, you're cheating with a password right under its nose? Do you really think it doesn't understand Morse code?

Then, the rules determined that what they said was correct.

[Correct answer, you two are indeed good friends.]

Evil Mouth. He never thought he would actually have a "good friend" one day. Even if it was fake, if Love Resentment knew, he would probably laugh at him for a year.

No, no, no, absolutely no one else can know, otherwise his Evil Mouth will make it impossible for him to stay in the organization.
