Xin Zhu had a long dream.
In the dream, he saw the place where he lived as a child, his parents, brothers, and sisters.
He went to school, t his teacher, and followed the teacher to research and travel to the Xia Yi Clan’s relics.
Then ca the accident.
He was right there at the light tree.
When those people rushed in, the teacher protected him and told him to find a chance to run.
Unfortunately, facing those who were enhanced, he had no opportunity to escape.
In the end, he bumped into the light tree, his wrist cut by it, bleeding profusely.
What happened next...
What happened next was chaos, like the underground was offended and began to rage.
In that chaos, he seed to fight, and those powers were not sothing he should have.
Then...
He seed to faint in front of the tree, not knowing how long it took for him to wake up.
When he regained consciousness, the ground was full of corpses, not a single survivor.
He moved the teacher’s body to another place, along with the others, and after finishing, was so exhausted he fell asleep.
When he woke up again, he rembered nothing.
"It was a kind of radiation that stopped his growth... However, specifics can’t be detected for now, such a situation has never been found before, it will take so ti."
There was a voice near his ear.
Who was speaking?
Xin Zhu wanted to open his eyes.
However, his eyelids felt heavy, as if soone’s glued them shut, and he couldn’t open them no matter what.
"He has a tumor in his brain, which could be causing the auditory hallucinations, but specifics will require further examination."
The voice ceased, and Xin Zhu felt soone grip his hand.
A soft, warm hand touched his forehead, gently comforting him.
Though Xin Zhu couldn’t see, he could feel who those hands belonged to.
He suddenly felt reassured and slowly fell back into a deep sleep.
-
Xin Zhu woke up two days later; the harsh light took him a while to adjust to.
The blue room held furnishings he had no recollection of, a strong sense of unfamiliarity.
The curtain flapped lightly in the breeze.
Xin Zhu felt an arm pressing on him and turned his head slightly, catching sight of a girl leaning beside him.
The girl suddenly opened her eyes, clear and bright, looking at him: "Awake?"
"This... Where is this?" Wasn’t they underground? Why did he wake up here? What happened afterward?
"Ho." Chuzheng got up, kissed his forehead: "Stay here, I’ll call the doctor."
Xin Zhu abruptly grabbed her hand.
The unfamiliar environnt clearly made Xin Zhu uneasy.
"It’s very safe here." Chuzheng said: "Don’t be afraid."
Xin Zhu shook his head, gripping tighter.
Chuzheng was silent for a mont, then sat back down, took out her phone to call the doctor.
"The person coming in shortly is the doctor, no need to be afraid."
Feeling even more anxious inside, Xin Zhu said: "I..."
Chuzheng seed to understand what he was thinking and softly reassured him: "Don’t worry, he signed a confidentiality agreent, he won’t talk randomly or do anything to you. Just checking on your health, I’ll be here with you."
Xin Zhu loosened his grip on her hand, nodded after a while.
The doctor arrived quickly, accompanied by two assistants.
Just as Chuzheng had said, upon entering, the doctor only inquired if he felt any discomfort and simply took notes, asking no further questions.
After the checkup, the doctor left, leaving only Chuzheng and Xin Zhu in the room.
"What happened next?"
"Want to know?"
Xin Zhu nodded.
"Kiss ."
"..."
Taking advantage of him like that.
But Xin Zhu really wanted to know what happened next.
He hesitated, clutching the blanket, leaned over slightly and pecked her on the cheek.
Chuzheng patted his head like a child.
After Xin Zhu fainted, Chuzheng tried to find a way out.
However, Gan Lu noticed her movents and wasn’t willing to let her go.
So they fought.
For so reason, Gan Lu’s skills were much better than before, along with the veil of white light, it took Chuzheng so effort to take her down.
Afterwards, she forcibly opened an exit and left.
As for whether those people were dead or not, Chuzheng wasn’t really sure, after all, she was more concerned about the Good Person Card.
But looking at the situation at that ti, the chance of survival was very small.
When taking Xin Zhu away, even Chuzheng felt a bit apprehensive.
Xin Zhu had said himself he couldn’t stray too far away.
So she moved in stages, but until reaching the surface, Xin Zhu remained unconscious and nothing strange happened.
Only then did she bring him back here.
"Xiao Qi... where’s Xiao Qi?" Xin Zhu was more worried about his small pet.
"I brought everyone back for you." Chuzheng said: "Once you’re better, I’ll take you to see them."
Xin Zhu smiled a little: "Thank you."
-
Xin Zhu’s health recovered well; the doctor examined him three tis a day, sotis making him lie in strange machines.
But he never heard those sounds that made his head hurt again.
Xin Zhu got out of bed, stepping on the soft carpet, went to the window to look outside.
Below was a big garden, flowers blooming brilliantly, under the sunlight, it felt more like a scene from a dream.
Xin Zhu leaned against the window, looking outside; there seed to be only this one house in the vicinity...
"Do you want to go out for a walk?"
Xin Zhu turned around abruptly, the girl in simple casual wear, leaning on the doorfra, her gaze fixed on him.
"Can I?"
"You can." Chuzheng reached out her hand: "Co here."
Xin Zhu imdiately approached, extending his hand to her.
Chuzheng grabbed a coat for him to wear: "We can’t go outside yet, but I can take you downstairs for a stroll and see your mice."
Xin Zhu’s eyes lit up, he quickened his pace slightly, walking ahead of Chuzheng.
But soon Xin Zhu stopped.
This... where should he go?
"Not going?"
Xin Zhu lowered his head: "...Don’t know where to go."
"Why is this place so big, so many paths..."
Xin Zhu began muttering to himself.
Chuzheng sighed, led the way, and showed him how to get downstairs.
In the downstairs hall, the doctor was entering with a file, seeing Chuzheng and Xin Zhu, frowned: "Miss Liu, are you taking Mr. Xin out?"
"Just outside for a walk."
"It’s best not to stay too long." The doctor rattled off a lot, still uneasy, almost saying he would follow them, but under Chuzheng’s gaze, he didn’t dare to follow.
Out the door, Xin Zhu whispered to Chuzheng: "He’s so naggy."
"He’s doing it for your own good." Chuzheng rarely spoke for others.
"...Oh." Xin Zhu lowered his head, replied: "He’s a good person."
"..."
Several large white mice were kept by Chuzheng in a small wooden house beside the garden.
They already had soone check them, and apart from being too big, each was very healthy and carried no diseases.
As Xin Zhu appeared, the mice imdiately rushed over, standing on their hind legs, squeaking ’squeak squeak’ at him.
Xin Zhu could recognize each one, and quickly saw Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi didn’t look too good, lying in a corner at the mont.
