If you take out the heart, won't the person die?

But at this moment, my consciousness seemed to be shrouded in a thick fog.

Even though a faint voice inside me was desperately screaming that what I was doing was wrong.

But my body felt as if it were being controlled by an invisible and powerful force, completely beyond my control, and I nodded as if possessed.

He spat out a dry "Okay!"

I frantically rummaged through my pockets, searching through all the clutter I could see, but to no avail.

Just as I was so anxious that beads of sweat were forming on my forehead and I was on the verge of collapse, Lin Zimeng quietly appeared beside me.

Her face still wore that seemingly innocent smile, exuding an irresistible cuteness.

She stretched out her fair and slender hand and handed over a long knife.

"Brother, you can use this!"

I looked up at her gratefully, as if I had grasped a lifeline, and said, "Thank you!"

You're welcome, brother!

Lin Zimeng blinked, tilted her head, and responded playfully.

She looked exactly like a simple and lovely young girl.

I gripped the long knife tightly with both hands, and without hesitation, I pointed the tip at my heart and plunged it in.

At that critical moment, a dazzling green light suddenly burst forth from my chest.

The green light struck the blade heavily, like an indestructible barrier.

With a "clang," I felt a sudden tremor run through my body.

A powerful force yanked me out of that manipulated, chaotic consciousness, instantly bringing me back to my senses.

I stared wide-eyed at everything before me, cold sweat pouring down my forehead.

What was I just doing?

suicide?

Upon seeing this, Lin Zimeng was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise and annoyance flashing across her face.

But the expression vanished in an instant; she quickly recovered, her face once again beaming with a smile.

She quickly stepped forward, affectionately put her arm around mine, leaned forward slightly, and gently shook my arm: "Brother, I was just teasing you. Why would you really want to rip your heart out? That's too scary."

horrible?

I couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

If it weren't for the snake pill I had been holding suddenly bursting with green light and blocking that fatal blow in time, I would probably be dead by now, a cold corpse.

At that moment, I finally understood why Luo Tianhe, as if bewitched, abandoned me without hesitation to go find other women.

The culprit behind all this is this seemingly gentle and lovely woman, who is actually ruthless and skilled in seduction.

She can subtly control people's minds without their knowledge, manipulating them at will. Her strangeness and danger far exceed my imagination.

"Brother, don't be angry, or I'll be unhappy. If I'm unhappy, I'll tell everyone that you came here to cause trouble for Wu Zhiguo!"

Lin Zimeng blinked, revealing two shallow dimples on her face.

My mind went blank.

I wouldn't be so surprised if she said she was looking for Zeng Yonghua, but she said Wu Zhiguo!!!

"you……"

"Brother, I love seeing your surprised expression, it's so cute!"

After she finished speaking, she giggled, but the laughter gave me the creeps.

"What exactly do you want?" I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.

This woman gives me a very dangerous feeling, even more dangerous than that woman from the Bureau of Paranormal Investigations from last time.

"I just wanted to drink with you."

She pulled me down to sit, pointing to the dozen or so bottles of beer in front of her and smiling at me.

How would you like to drink it?

I know she doesn't just want to drink with me, but I can't refuse.

At this moment, I truly regretted that the [Earth Soul] had grown out.

Being afraid of this kind of thing is really terrifying.

"Of course I only drank it because I saw my brother drinking it. He doesn't drink alcohol, so he has to finish everything here, or I'll be unhappy!"

Lin Zimeng opened a bottle of beer and placed it in front of me. She rested her chin on her hands, tilted her head, and smiled, revealing her signature dimples.

Damn it!

I glanced at the beer on the table.

Good heavens, there were at least seventeen or eighteen bottles densely packed together.

I know in my heart that I really can't hold my liquor. I can usually only drink about ten bottles at most, and after that I'm completely out of it.

If you were to drink all of this down your throat, you'd probably lose consciousness immediately.

At first, I was quite defiant, drinking heartily in large gulps.

But as time ticked by, the effects of the alcohol gradually took hold, and my movements became increasingly sluggish.

What started as hearty drinking gradually turned into sips, with each sip requiring a long pause.

My stomach felt like it was on fire, burning painfully. Then, a churning sensation washed over me, and I couldn't hold it in any longer. I arched my back and vomited with a "whoosh."

I thought this ordeal was over, but before I could even catch my breath, Lin Zimeng's sickeningly sweet voice rang in my ears again.

She had twenty-four bottles of beer brought in again at some point.

Are you coming again?

Lin Zimeng reached out her fair hand and gently patted my back.

The gesture, though seemingly caring, made me feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Brother looks so handsome when he drinks! I wonder if he can do it again?"

Previously, I was wary of her and dared not easily lose my temper.

But at this moment, under the influence of alcohol, reason had long been thrown to the winds.

I felt a nameless fire suddenly rise from the bottom of my heart, burning my head and making me dizzy.

I stood up abruptly and swept the remaining bottles on the table onto the floor.

What exactly do you want?

Lin Zimeng seemed startled by my sudden action and took a small step back.

Her eyes instantly filled with tears, and her lips pursed, revealing a pitiful expression, making her look just like a little girl who had been bullied.

"Brother, how could you do this to me? I just thought you were a great drinker and wanted to watch you drink a little longer."

She paused, then added, "If you finish drinking this, I'll tell you why these people came to seek refuge with Dr. Zeng, okay?"

I glared at her fiercely, knowing full well that she was deliberately making things difficult for me.

But the temptation to find out why those people had sided with Dr. Zeng was simply too great.

I gritted my teeth and picked up another bottle of beer with trembling hands.

At that moment, I felt dizzy and everything around me was shaking. The Lin Zimeng in front of me seemed to multiply into several, overlapping and indistinct.

But I still tilted my head back and poured the icy liquid into my mouth.

I don't remember how I got drunk, nor do I remember how much I drank.

When I woke up, I found myself lying on a soft bed.

Judging from the room's layout, it appears to be a guest room.

All my clothes were stripped off.
