“Utter nonsense, full of holes. Do you realize you almost died with your legs stretched out? And you’re still talking to me about plans?”Â
Bai Wuchang mocked.
“Sometimes, if I want to go up against a powerful opponent, I have no choice but to take risks. Since you all came to me for help, you should trust me. Don’t nag me,” Li Zuhao retorted forcefully, not even sparing the Ghost Messenger from his scolding.
“You…”
Bai Wuchang still wanted to say something.
“Alright, Bai, stop arguing. Ah Zu does have a point. We’ve been following the Regulation System all along, and no one has managed to conquer these Guiwang Zhuanshi yandere girls. Now that Ah Zu is doing well, we have no choice but to trust him,” Heiwuchang tried to mediate, speaking earnestly.
“Sooner or later, you’ll get yourself killed,” Bai Wuchang grumbled, still dissatisfied.
“Get some rest. We’ll be watching you from above. Also, we won’t be able to appear in front of you for a while. We’ve already broken the rules of the living world by manifesting so many times. From now on, you’ll have to handle things on your own,” Heiwuchang gently patted the back of Li Zuhao’s hand.
“Suit yourself,” Bai Wuchang crossed her arms and snorted arrogantly.
After saying that, Bai Wuchang and Heiwuchang turned into a wisp of blue smoke and vanished.
“You so-called Ghost Messengers don’t even understand yandere girls as well as us mental hospital patients.”
Only after Bai Wuchang and Heiwuchang left did Li Zuhao dare to mutter this mockery to the air.
But in the end, there was nothing he could do except lie on the hospital bed and wait for the doctor to clear him.
Even though he wasn’t really injured.
Wait, that’s right!
He didn’t need any treatment at all.
After thinking it through, Li Zuhao rolled over and got out of bed, ready to make a break for it.
But he was quickly spotted by a regular nurse and dragged back to his hospital bed.
“Child, what are you doing? Get back in bed!”
“Child, we’re waiting for Jihuang Academy’s Psychological Counseling Teacher to come. Only if she approves can we let you go,” the nurse explained.
It turned out the hospital discovered Li Zuhao had suicidal tendencies, so they arranged for several nurses to keep an eye on him, not allowing him to mess around.
This City Central Hospital was heavily funded by Jihuang Academy.
The nurses and doctors here were actually all medical students from Jihuang Academy.
A student from Jihuang Academy was admitted for a suicide attempt?
Of course they had to inform the academy and send someone to investigate!
The young nurses even came into the ward to watch over him, moving chairs right next to his bed to keep a close eye on him.
“I want to pee…”
“We’ll help you hold it.”
Li Zuhao didn’t even have any privacy.
But he didn’t want to be thrown back into the Mental Hospital, so he could only pretend to be normal.
Everyone knew that even though Li Zuhao was dug out from the depths of the Mental Hospital by Bai Wuchang and Heiwuchang, he didn’t really act like a fool—in fact, he seemed pretty smart.
You could say he was too clever in his previous life, and that’s why he ended up locked in the Abnormal Human Research Center.
Madmen and geniuses are really the same kind of people.
No choice, Li Zuhao had to lie there for a whole day and a half.
The most secluded seat in Class 9, Grade 1, remained empty for a day and a half.
The news that its owner had attempted suicide had already spread throughout the class.
This left some people feeling anxious and uneasy, unable to settle down all day.
Of course, these people were none other than Kaixin Min and her Delinquent Girl Gang!
They had beaten up Li Zuhao just yesterday, and today he went and attempted suicide. How could they say it had nothing to do with them?
The Delinquent Girls, who had swaggered around so arrogantly and fearlessly yesterday, had all become shrinking turtles today, keeping their heads down and saying nothing.
As soon as class ended, Kaixin Min and the other Delinquent Girls gathered under a tree in a corner of the playground.
“Damn it, damn it, damn it.”
Kaixin Min sat in the middle, fingers intertwined, biting her thumbnail, stomping her feet over and over, her face ashen and dripping with cold sweat.
Seeing her like this, the Delinquent Girls knew she had no solution either.
“No wonder he didn’t rat us out—he’s planning something big. If he dies, the school will definitely investigate, and once they do, it’ll lead straight to us,” Kaixin Min said coldly.
“Boss, that guy isn’t dead yet. We still have a chance to keep his mouth shut,” one of the Delinquent Girls suggested.
“You mean to finish him off?”
Kaixin Min shot back.
“Boss, your thinking is too extreme. I mean you can go visit him in the hospital, bring some fruit, say something nice,” the Delinquent Girl analyzed.
Kaixin Min fell silent when she heard this, feeling even more conflicted and miserable.
When the bell rang, everyone dispersed, and Kaixin Min returned to the classroom and sat down.
She had no interest in listening to the lesson, instead staring blankly into space, lost in thought.
Am I really going to visit that guy in the hospital and bring him fruit?
That’s disgusting!
But if I don’t show some goodwill and he really tells Jihuang Academy that I was the one who beat him, my life is over.
“Li Zuhao, you bastard. So ruthless. This is the first time I’ve ever felt so humiliated,” Kaixin Min gritted her teeth in anger.
Even when this guy used to get handsy with her, she hadn’t felt this disgusted.
Back then, he was the one acting like an animal—it was his fault, not hers, and she certainly hadn’t provoked him on purpose.
But now, she’s being forced by him to take the initiative?
This is unbearable!
It’s revolting!
But she had no choice but to try to win him over.
If he said anything, she’d be in real trouble.
She really had been played for a fool!
Even though she was a Delinquent Girl, she didn’t go around picking fights or bullying others every day.
Strictly speaking, they’d only ever officially beaten up one person.
They really couldn’t stand that damned pervert anymore!
But after beating up the pervert, it felt like stepping in dog poop—impossible to shake off.
After school, Kaixin Min, for once, didn’t go sing karaoke with her sisters.
After bidding farewell to the other Delinquent Girls and promising she’d settle everything and they didn’t need to worry, she left alone.
With the Delinquent Girls watching, Kaixin Min went to the fruit stand and bought two apples.
Nervous and uneasy, she made her way toward City Central Hospital.
At the same time, there was another girl at Jihuang Academy who was on edge because of someone’s suicide attempt.
That was Sakiharu Wen, the Vice-Captain of the Kendo Club.
Her psychological state was exactly the same as Kaixin Min’s.
Yesterday, she had beaten up that lecherous playboy twice in public—twice!!
And today, he went and tried to kill himself.
Could she really say it had nothing to do with her?
In fact, Sakiharu Wen was under even more psychological pressure than the blonde delinquent Kaixin Min.
The Sword Club Ace was absent-minded all day during training, even getting completely outclassed by a junior while practicing swordsmanship.
But everyone knew why the Ace was like this.
“Sakiharu, this has nothing to do with you.”
“That’s right, he brought this on himself.”
“A lot of people are happy that guy’s dead.”
“You’re doing a public service.”
The senior and junior members of the Kendo Club all tried to comfort Sakiharu Wen, but it had little effect.
