Xu Tingfang was stunned by Shen Hai's actions. This was a madman, a madman through and through!
But she had to admit that Shen Hai's actions were extremely effective. A sliver of hope had truly appeared in her once-despairing heart.
She followed Shen Hai out of the restroom.
She casually took a book from a shelf and headed for the door.
Shen Hai passed through the Library's entrance without any obstruction, but Xu Tingfang felt herself collide with something...
This... was the solution Shen Hai had proposed to her earlier.

She hurried after him. Now Shen Hai was her lifeline, her only hope of convincing herself to keep living.
