Chapter 185
Just as he thought that, the motionless cat moved its front paws.
He was startled and was about to attack when the big cat stopped moving. It simply bent its forelegs, as if this position was more comfortable.
He paused, bewildered and uncertain.
"... What happened?"
Seeing that his spirits had improved, Ye Jiang withdrew her hand and did not continue the treatment. She was not in the mood to answer the captain's questions. She was inexplicably feeling listless and her mood was damp.
She simply told him the result, "The danger in the building is over."
After saying that, he walked over to the big cat to treat it and repair the hole in its chest.
Yu Hai watched her actions, hesitant to speak. He desperately wanted to know what had happened, why the big cat had gone mad, how it had been subdued, its current condition, and why it needed his treatment. He longed to know, yet he also guessed that the crisis had been averted by the Healer. She had saved him and everyone else on this floor; they had all survived thanks to her. So, if she didn't want to talk about it, why should he bother her?
He watched for a while, said nothing, and then went to check on the survivors.
Repairing the big cat's hole only took a second and was over quickly, but Ye Jiang didn't leave after the treatment. She leaned against the big cat's huge body, ignoring how stiff the big cat's body was, how lively its eyes were, and how listless its eyelids were.
A shadow fell on her, and she dejectedly raised her eyes to see the young man, who walked up to her.
"I'm sorry, I lied to you," the young man said to her.
He added, "I'm also sorry for pretending not to know you all this time."
This is him acknowledging that they were once acquainted.
Ye Jiang looked up at him, as if trying to get to know this monster all over again.
She looked at him for a long time, then her lips twitched, and she said, "Do I also need to apologize to you?"
Does she need to apologize to him for forgetting him?
The young man's lips twitched slightly, forming a very faint smile, which vanished in an instant.
He gazed intently at her and said, "You will never need to apologize to anyone for anything."
After saying this, he lowered his head slightly, and his voice came from below. "I don't need your apology, I just want you to remember me."
Ye Jiang: "..."
She stayed there.
Thump—the heart in my chest skipped a beat, giving rise to some strange emotions.
The monster in front of her lowered its head slightly, a gesture of submission. Ye Jiang didn't notice; she was lost in thought again, her mind preoccupied with her chest.
Upstairs, No. 7 of the three monster brothers woke up from his daze. He was the last to wake up; No. 5, who was still a little dazed, had been completely fine the moment the Pollution disappeared. As soon as No. 7 regained consciousness, he heard the Slaughter God's apology. Hmm? The Slaughter God's... apology?
He looked down hesitantly and saw the Slaughter God bowing his head, showing submission to the woman in front of him.
What!!!
No. 7 was terrified and stumbled, falling down the stairs.
Bang!
Something fell from upstairs with a loud thud. Ye Jiang looked over at the sound and saw a young, stunned face. It was No. 7. He had fallen from upstairs and was in a daze, seemingly shocked by something. This dignified monster had fallen to the ground and was now just like a lump on the ground. He looked exactly the same as when he fell, completely dazed.
Ye Jiang didn't think a monster would get injured from such a small fall, and stared at him silently.
"Third brother!"
"Third brother!!"
With two shouts, two shadows descended from the sky, landing to the left and right of No. 7. They clearly weren't worried about their third brother being injured in the small building; upon landing, their gazes didn't even fall on No. 7, but instead landed on Ye Jiang and the young man, their faces showing the same blank stares as their third brother. No. 3 and No. 5 had also heard the God of Slaughter God's apology, and were just as shocked as their third brother, especially No. 3. He hadn't shown any symptoms even when facing the strange cat's Pollution, but now, a mere apology had severely impacted his mental state, turning his face completely blank! No wonder, it was the God of Slaughter God's apology!
Ye Jiang: "?"
Did the strange cat's Pollution ruin the brains of the three monster brothers? Are they really that fierce?
At this moment, Rong Yin slowly raised his head, his gaze turning icy as he turned to the three monster brothers.
"!!!"
The three brothers immediately looked away, stood at attention, and moved swiftly and in perfect unison.
Ye Jiang: "..."
Looks like his brain isn't broken; it's still working.
I just don't understand why they're so cowardly towards Rong Yin.
357 was naturally afraid of Rong Yin. They had all tasted the black hole of this Slaughter God. After being suppressed by the Slaughter God, they were forced to endure the cold wind in the mountains for countless years, and have been enslaved ever since, daring not to speak out against it.
But now, at this moment, their courage stirred for a moment, and they cautiously, very cautiously, looked back at it.
He looked at Ye Jiang.
His eyes showed deep admiration.
She actually managed to make the Slaughter God bow down! Wow, that's amazing!
They were blind. They had thought she was very powerful before and even wanted to invite her to lead them to destroy the world, but they didn't think she was stronger than the Slaughter God. No monster could be stronger than the Slaughter God, and they were even worried that she would be killed by the Slaughter God.
As a result, the cold-blooded Slaughter God apologized to her.
As a result, even the formidable Slaughter God bowed down to her.
So she was a monster! A monster capable of suppressing even the Slaughter God!
The three brothers were shocked and full of admiration, their eyes sparkling with admiration.
The three brothers were so shocked that they didn't notice the dark red mark appearing on their hands, silently forming the shape of Blood Moon.
Ye Jiang didn't notice, because at that moment Yu Hai ran towards her and asked if the toys could continue to help with the interrupted evacuation mission. After checking, he found that the people were in very bad condition and it would be best if they could return to the real world as soon as possible to receive treatment there.
Of course, the best Healer was right there in front of him, but Yu Hai didn't consider asking Ye Jiang for help. Although he had lost his memory of what had just happened, he knew that the crisis wouldn't be so easy to resolve. He still remembered the terrifying situation before his consciousness sank, and Ye Jiang must have suffered considerable losses in the battle just now. How could he dare to trouble her for treatment again?
This is entirely the captain's guess. In fact, Ye Jiang is in excellent condition, with virtually no damage.
However, she didn't bring up treating these humans herself. Instead, she looked at the toys in the building and, as Yu Hai wished, let the toys take the people out for treatment.
Treatment.
The toys were all upstairs. She was about to go up and find them when the big cat she was leaning against nudged her with its paw. The cat's paw lightly touched Ye Jiang's arm, and the next second, she felt a mysterious power. She could feel every brick and tile of the mall, and the entire huge mall was in her sight. This was... the big cat returning control of the mall to her.
The shopping mall was originally Ye Jiang's creation, but it was later taken over by Da Mao, who made some changes. Now he has returned control to her.
Ye Jiang glanced at the big cat without making a sound, and the big cat rubbed against her.
"..."
Ye Jiang leaned back and said to Yu Hai, "We don't need to find any more toys to help."
Yu Hai didn't understand. Ye Jiang casually pointed to a wall opposite. Yu Hai looked over but saw nothing and was puzzled. Just as he was about to ask, he saw a door symbol slowly appear on the wall.
Ye Jiang said, "The exit is right there; go out from there."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "You can go out and find someone from your department to come in and help."
There are still many people stranded in the building. Currently, only Yu Hai is conscious on the human side. It's unknown how long it will take him to transport the humans out by himself.
Yu Hai was still staring at the sign, wondering how it had appeared, and asked, "Can we let people from outside come in to help? Isn't it dangerous?"
Ye Jiang said, "Yes, there's no danger. The toys in the building won't attack."
She casually remarked, "I'm in control of the market now."
Yu Hai suddenly turned around, staring at the person who had spoken such a terrifying statement so casually, his lips trembling slightly. "... What?"
Ye Jiang nodded slightly to him, then rambled on expressionlessly, "The toys in the building don't have any major malicious intentions. The riot by the big cat was caused by ' Cheng Xin.' I helped the big cat, and in return, he gave me control of the mall."
This isn't entirely a lie, but it's not entirely true either.
Ye Jiang added, "As for that ' Cheng Xin, ' I have something to say to your bureau chief about him after we leave."
Yu Hai opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, only staring blankly at Ye Jiang. Was the control of this shopping mall really in the hands of the Healer now? Then... had she figured out the mall's secret?
Seeing that he didn't move, Ye Jiang lifted her eyelids slightly and said, "Didn't you say the situation of these people was very urgent? Aren't you going to find someone?"
"... Ah." Yu Hai snapped out of his daze, glanced at Ye Jiang with a complicated expression, and ran towards the exit on the wall.
Regardless, let's evacuate the people first. As for the rest... the Healer said she'd like to talk to the bureau chief.
Just before Yu Hai rushed into the exit in the wall, he thought to himself, "The Healer is really loved by the 'abnormalities.' The toys in the building were willing to cooperate with the public's evacuation before because the Healer asked them to. Now, she has even taken control of the mall from the big cat. What a strange affinity."
The evacuation was abruptly halted. The members of the Ability Control Bureau who were waiting outside immediately confirmed that something had happened. They quickly selected an elite member to investigate, but soon discovered that they couldn't enter the mall.
This is a major incident.
The top brass of the Ability Control Bureau gathered here, discussing countermeasures while continuing their probing infiltration.
