Chapter 726 It’s Still Too Late

Although I don't understand why someone would change so much, the grudges between the two of them before were real, and the fact that the other person is now doing me a favor is also real.

Li Qinyan, clear about right and wrong, said objectively, "I just found that she's actually quite nice now, and you really owe her a lot for what happened today. Don't be cold to people later."

Zhao Fangzhao was not very satisfied with Li Qinyan's answer, and he kept staring at Ye Wanxi as he got out of the car.

It took him a long time to finally manage to utter a sentence: "Is there really something wrong with my doll?"

Ye Wanxi glanced at her, a half-smile on her face, and said, "Do you need me to show it to you?"

Before Zhao Fangzhao could say anything, the two adults trembled and waved their hands, saying, "No, no, no! It's best to keep such a dangerous thing safe. We won't look at it."

After saying that, she grabbed the naughty child and pulled her aside, preventing her from getting close to Ye Wanxi again.

Jiang Lin provided very detailed information, including which ward the other party was currently in.

After registering, Ye Wanxi and the others went straight to Fu Shuangshuang's ward.

Before they even reached the door, the group bumped into two adults.

"You are..."

Ye Wanxi spoke first, introducing, "You must be Shuangshuang's older brother and sister-in-law? We are Shuangshuang's friends. We heard she was sick and hospitalized, so we came to see her. How is she now?"

"Shuangshuang's friend?"

The young couple exchanged a puzzled look: "How come we've never heard Shuangshuang mention this before?"

“We’ve been old friends with her for a long time, but we haven’t been in touch for quite a while because of our studies. We only found out recently from other friends that we were both sick and hospitalized.”

Ye Wanxi was wearing a mask, so the young couple didn't recognize her. When they heard what she said, they looked enlightened, but then said sadly, "Thank you for coming to see Shuangshuang, but it's a pity that Shuangshuang can't meet with you now."

"Is it that serious? Can we see her?"

“That’s possible…” Sister-in-law Fu turned to look at her husband, sighed softly, and said, “Come with me.”

The ward door opened, revealing a person with an oxygen tube inserted into the bed and various instruments, their eyes closed. Many people's expressions were somewhat subtle.

Zhao Fangzhao stared in disbelief at the person on the hospital bed. She couldn't believe that just a month ago, the young woman who had been so gentle and friendly, sharing her favorite things with her and leading her into a new world, had become such a weak, inhuman creature. And all of this...

Li Qinyan followed Ye Wanxi into the ward and asked in a low voice with curiosity, "How is it? Did you find anything?"

"I see."

"What?"

"Same as Miss Zhao."

"Like Zhao Zhao? You mean she is too..."

"Um."

Li Qinyan was horrified: "What do we do now? Where is her doll? Do we have to find it and destroy it to save her?"

Ye Wanxi didn't reply. They definitely needed to find the baby, but the person...

Looking at the person on the hospital bed who barely seemed to be alive, Ye Wanxi let out a long sigh, feeling both regret and anger.

They were too late; this girl... was beyond saving.

Seeing Ye Wanxi only sigh and remain silent, Li Qinyan suddenly felt a sense of foreboding. Just as she was about to ask a few more questions, she suddenly saw Ye Wanxi take out Zhao Fangzhao's doll.

The temperature in the ward suddenly dropped, making everyone shiver.

Fu Shuangshuang's brother and sister-in-law were unaware of the situation and their faces were full of confusion.

Aunt Fang and the others subconsciously looked at Ye Wanxi, then at the person on the hospital bed, their pupils suddenly shrinking.

Suddenly, the person who had been lying silently on the bed opened their eyes, their bright brown eyes fixed on the front, a look that didn't seem like that of a normal person.

Not long ago, Brother Fu and Sister Fu received a doctor's diagnosis that their sister had lost the function of her cerebral cortex and had become a vegetable. Less than three days later, their sister suddenly woke up and could move again.

After a brief moment of shock, the two were overjoyed. Just as they were about to go up and say a few words to the younger sister and call the doctor to come and check her up, they saw the younger sister suddenly bar her teeth in the direction of the guests and, like a terrifying wolf, fiercely pounce on them.

"Shuangshuang!" The two adults exclaimed in surprise at the same time, only to see the person who had been tackled calmly throw out a yellow talisman.

With a bang, the yellow talisman was stuck to Fu Shuangshuang's head, and sparks flew out.

Realizing that its kind had been captured, and that its capturer was a human with considerable abilities, the monstrous creature, which had completely taken over Fu Shuangshuang's body, roared even more furiously, changed direction, and pounced on Ye Wanxi once again.

Ye Wanxi sneered: "I didn't expect that beasts could have feelings for each other. Well then, since you have all harmed people, today I will let you reunite in the underworld."

Unlike the beard-like creature in Zhao Fangzhao's doll, this beard-like creature had already truly taken a life, so Ye Wanxi naturally wouldn't show it any mercy.

All sorts of offensive talismans were thrown out like they were free, until it was knocked down, before it curled its fingers into claws and forcefully grabbed at Fu Shuangshuang's head.

Everyone, including Fu's brother and sister-in-law, just watched as Ye Wanxi pulled a blue-faced, fanged, and ferocious monster from Fu Shuangshuang's head.

"What...what is this?" Brother Fu's legs went weak with fright, and he bumped into the railing of the hospital bed, almost falling to the ground.

Sister-in-law Fu wasn't much better off. Her face was ashen as she stared at the monster in Ye Wanxi's hand, looking weak and as if she might faint at any moment.

As soon as the hairpin left Fu Shuangshuang's body, she immediately closed her eyes and collapsed, barely breathing.

Seeing this, Ye Wanxi sighed softly, "It's too late."

"What's so late?" Zhao Fangzhao finally saw the terrifying monster her parents had been talking about. The thought of the same thing following her for a whole month sent chills down her spine and gave her goosebumps.

Before he could recover from the fear and palpitations, Zhao Fangzhao heard Ye Wanxi's words and was completely distraught: "Sister Fu, is Sister Fu beyond saving?"

"It's hopeless, its brain has already been eaten."

"Eat...brains?" Zhao Fangzhao's skin crawled again. "Isn't it just about sucking blood? Why are you eating brains too?"

"Bloodsucking is only the first step. Once they've sucked enough blood, they will gradually devour their owner's brain, completely take over their thoughts, and replace them."

In short, Zhao Fangzhao had less time to come into contact with this thing compared to Fu Shuangshuang, and hadn't had time to progress to this point yet; otherwise, there would be one more person lying on the ground.
