Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Three Men Walk_1
"No, no problem."
Liao Yong gave Liu Qing an awkward smile without meeting her caring gaze.
You and Wei Shuxian exchanged a glance, then smiled at each other, but didn’t point it out.
"Glasses, you take Black Bull and pull back first. Go to the infirmary anyway to have a look. It wouldn’t be good if you develop any long-term issues. Little Kai, Zongzi, and I will go search."
"Yeah, okay."
Under your and Wei Shuxian’s insistence, Liao Yong finally compromised.
Liu Qing watched Liao Yong’s retreating back and, after pausing for a moment, took the initiative to catch up with him.
Seeing Liu Qing helping Liao Yong from the other side and the three disappearing around the corner staircase, Yang Kai couldn’t help but ask you, "Hey, Old Shu, why are you egging Black Bull and Liu Qing on?"
"What, are you jealous?"
"Jealous? Hmph, my Yingying is millions of times better than that worn-out shoe Liu Qing!" Yang Kai couldn’t understand, "Although Black Bull is a straightforward guy, you can’t bully an honest guy like that, can you? Who knows if Liu Qing will end up cuckolding Black Bull later on."
"You don’t know jack!" you retorted, giving Yang Kai an irritated look, "Look at Liu Qing now. Is she still the same arrogant former school beauty who thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world like in your intelligence?"
"Well, that is true." Zong Wangyue, who specialized in gathering intelligence, nodded in agreement. "Now that Old Shu mentions it, I’ve suddenly realized that Liu Qing has changed quite a lot. In the past, she wouldn’t even spare a glance for anyone but tall, rich, and handsome men when walking. And now, she actively extends help to Black Bull. That’s a significant change. After what happened tonight, she seems to have had an epiphany. It’s a blessing in disguise, I guess."
You nodded, then continued, "Didn’t Black Bull say during the evening meetings back at the training camp that he didn’t care whether his future wife had boyfriends before? He values a girl’s character and temperament. Although I myself place great importance on chastity, what can you do when Black Bull has such progressive thoughts?"
"Besides, what’s the use of a girl looking good on the outside if she’s a green tea b**** or a white lotus on the inside?" you paused, then continued, "Right now, Liu Qing is at her most vulnerable. I can say this with responsibility: if Old Bull makes his move now when she’s down, fully occupying her heart, then, just watch—Old Bull’s happy days will begin!"
Yang Kai and Zong Wangyue looked at each other. Yang Kai said with disdain, "Hmph, I don’t buy it. Women are often duplicitous creatures. Sometimes they say they love you to death, and other times they boss you around and treat you like a dog for fun."
Zong Wangyue suggested with a smile, "How about this, you two make a bet!"
Both asked at the same time, "Bet how much?"
The corner of your mouth curled up slightly, "The loser washes the winner’s socks for a year!"
"Fine, you’re on!"
And so, you and Yang Kai shook hands as a pledge.
Afterward, you continued downstairs to find the dead baby’s body.
According to your experience and knowledge, it was highly likely the baby’s body would be buried around the lab, perhaps even within a nearby flower bed. But when you reached the ground floor and were about to exit the lab building, you discovered the Ghost Infant simply couldn’t leave the lab building.
"Boss, I remember seeing a horror movie where a deranged professor made a specimen of his child’s body, preserving it in formalin. Do you think this could be the case here?"
With Zong Wangyue suggesting this, you thought it highly likely, and so you headed towards the specimen room on the first floor of the lab building.
It is said that humans are indeed social animals. I felt nothing when there were many of us, but now that the number has dwindled, as you three walk down the empty and eerie corridor with the slow "pat, pat" of footsteps echoing, one cannot help but feel their heart tightening unnaturally, always sensing something following and watching behind you.
"Hey, Old Shu, there aren’t other things in here, right?"
Yang Kai suddenly asked.
You scratched your head, looking around with a somewhat cautious expression, "To tell you the truth, I’m not sure either. And what’s more, that move just now almost drained all my strength. I won’t be able to recover without a few hours of rest."
"What if, what if we encounter something even more terrifying?" Zong Wangyue was also getting scared.
The three of you stopped walking at the same time, and you looked at the Ghost Infant that had fallen asleep in your arms.
This little guy looked extremely fierce just now, but after its curse was broken by you, it returned to its original form, and now there’s no significant difference between it and a normal infant.
"For this little one, if it wants to be reincarnated, this is its only chance. If it misses this opportunity, it’s very likely to condense yin energy again and become even more ferocious and terrifying than before."
Yang Kai looked at the little one’s adorable sleeping posture and couldn’t help but sigh softly, "Buddhism often says that saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda. By helping this little thing be reincarnated, we should be able to accumulate more virtue."
You smiled, Yang Kai’s words were essentially declaring his determination.
"Let’s go, no matter what, we must find the little one’s body."
Walking, walking, Zong Wangyue next to you suddenly exclaimed, "Who is there!?"
Zong Wangyue’s sudden shout startled both you and Yang Kai. Yang Kai glanced in the direction Zong Wangyue was looking and saw nothing, so he playfully gave him a push and joked, "Black Bull, are you trying to scare me to death?"
Zong Wangyue scratched his head, somewhat puzzled, "Strange, I thought I saw someone’s shadow flit by there."
"Are you sure?" Zong Wangyue’s words caught your attention.
Zong Wangyue nodded, "I shouldn’t be wrong, there was definitely someone there just now."
"You’re sure it was a person, not a ghost?"
Zong Wangyue looked at Yang Kai annoyed, "If it were a ghost, Boss’s Yin and Yang eyes should see it much clearer than us, right?"
You quite agreed with this. Since earlier, your left eye had been wrapped in a burning sensation. Although using it so much was exhausting, it was a matter of life and death and could not afford any mistakes.
With the vision of the left eye, ghosts had nowhere to hide.
"As long as it’s a person, there’s nothing to be afraid of. Let’s go, let’s go check it out."
You happened to be standing at a corner. If you continued straight, you would be near the specimen room; taking a right turn led down another long corridor, flanked by classrooms on both sides, making the environment much more complex.
You immediately stopped Yang Kai and said solemnly, "If it really is a person, then that guy is either secretly spying on us or has entered here unintentionally. We don’t need to waste too much energy to find him. If he is really spying on us, his true colors will soon show."
"Alright, I’ll listen to you."
