"Little White, can you still hold on? Why don't you put my Corpse-Suppressing Bead in your mouth and let's get out of here quickly?"
Upon hearing about the Corpse-Suppressing Bead, Bai Qi's already unpleasant expression instantly turned even more so.
"Get out! I'm fine!"
Even if he were to die, he would never put the Corpse-Suppressing Pearl in his mouth. After all, he absolutely could not accept that Yang Ming had this thing in his mouth every day.
"Hey Xiaobai, don't try to be brave now. Look, you're bleeding. The Corpse-Suppressing Bead does have a rotten smell, but it's really effective."
Yang Ming spoke with concern, then took out the Corpse-Suppressing Bead and tried to put it into Bai Qi's mouth.
Bai Qi's expression changed drastically, his whole body filled with resistance. It wasn't that he disliked the smell of the Corpse-Suppressing Pearl, but rather that he disliked Yang Ming.
"Get your head off me right now! I'd rather die than have your corpse-suppressing bead in my mouth!"
"Don't argue, hurry up..."
"Alright, I'll treat him." Fang Xiu was too lazy to watch the two of them arguing, so he simply put his hand on Bai Qi's shoulder.
The ability to absorb pain activates instantly.
Bai Qi's injuries were rapidly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Both of them were taken aback.
"I...I'm healed?" Bai Qi's face was filled with disbelief. The injury that would have taken at least a month to heal was actually healed in an instant. What amazing healing ability this was.
"Brother Xiu, how many abilities do you actually have? Predicting the future, making others feel pain, and even healing in the present—that's three abilities! I, a Destiny, only have one. Who is Destiny, you or me?" Yang Ming said enviously.
Who is destiny?
To be honest, even Fang Xiu himself couldn't tell the difference.
"Alright, let's hurry up and leave, or we'll be pulled to the other side."
As he spoke, a strand of Fang Xiu's silver hair floated up defying gravity, like a snake, and extended toward Ma Xingbang's corpse. After finding the golden key on his body, he quickly left.
The original mask was taken away, and the seal that had previously sealed the room also disappeared.
The group soon arrived at the bronze door they had entered through at the beginning.
Fang Xiu inserted the golden key directly into the bronze door and twisted it hard, with a click.
His spirituality drained away rapidly, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The bronze door slowly opened, revealing a blinding white light that made it impossible to see what was inside.
Without the slightest hesitation, Fang Xiu stepped directly into the white light, followed closely by Yang Ming and the others.
Whoosh!
The world spun around them, and the three disappeared into the white expanse.
When the white light dissipated, the three of them suddenly realized that they had appeared outside the Green Mountain Mental Hospital.
Meanwhile, the mental hospital became increasingly blurred, even gradually transparent, and eventually burst like a bubble, disappearing completely.
It turned into a sales office again.
In Fang Xiu's view, Qingshan Mental Hospital seemed to be pulled away by some force, moving away as if by teleportation, until it completely disappeared from sight.
The eeriness within also faded away.
Everything returns to the other side.
"Hahaha... We made it out alive, but the weakest one died." Yang Ming laughed maniacally.
"Idiot." Bai Qi snorted coldly, looking very disapproving.
Let's go.
......
......
Wang Dehai's office in the Green Vine City Investigation Bureau.
"Why are there only the three of you? Where is Consultant Ma?" Wang Dehai looked at Fang Xiu and the other two, who were unharmed, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.
"He's dead," Fang Xiu said succinctly.
"Dead!?" Wang Dehai's eyes widened instantly. "How did he die?"
Yang Ming shrugged: "His face was taken away by the S-class eerie faceless creature, and then he was beaten to death by a little kid named Kang Kang who was over five meters tall."
"What do you mean by 'a kid over five meters tall'? Be serious! Advisor Ma is from headquarters. In ancient times, he would be an imperial envoy. Do you know how serious it is if an imperial envoy dies?" Wang Dehai roared.
Yang Ming felt his eardrums itch from the shouting. While picking his ears, he explained, "Kang Kang is a weirdo, probably S-rank. It said it hates people who wear suits and ties the most, and then it beat Consultant Ma to death."
Yang Ming's explanation only made things worse. Wang Dehai felt a surge of anger rush to his head, and he quickly took two blood pressure pills.
"Bai Qi, tell me, how did Consultant Ma die?"
“Just like Yang Ming said,” Bai Qi said coldly.
Wang Dehai felt his blood pressure rise even higher.
Finally, he turned his gaze to Fang Xiu, forcing a smile, and said, "Fang Xiu, I know you're an honest young man, and you haven't known Yang Ming for long, so you shouldn't have been corrupted. Tell me the truth, how exactly did Consultant Ma die?"
"I killed him," Fang Xiu stated calmly.
"You...you guys..." Wang Dehai felt like he was about to roll his eyes and faint.
"Are you all trying to drive me crazy? Can't you speak properly? How exactly did Consultant Ma die?! You can't even explain it properly? Go write a report! 20,000 words each. If you don't finish, your salary will be halved this month, your performance bonus will be halved, and all your spiritual materials will be deducted!"
Finally, amidst Wang Dehai's roar, Fang Xiu and the other two left the office.
As for the report, Yang Ming wouldn't write it, Bai Qi wouldn't write it, and Fang Xiu certainly wouldn't write it.
In the end, it was Wang Dehai himself who wrote the report, saying that Ma Xingbang died in a mysterious way in the mental hospital, and reported it to headquarters.
......
......
Shangjing City.
In a secluded manor.
A long-haired man dressed in a black robe was sitting on a mahogany chair deep inside the manor.
He was tall and imposing, with a bronze complexion and distinct, deep-set features, like a Greek statue. His dark, deep-set eyes revealed a hint of malevolence.
He was in a dark room with only a small window above his head. Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating half of his body, while the other half remained hidden in darkness.
At this moment, he was holding a report in his hand, which was none other than the report written by Wang Dehai.
"Ma Xingbang is dead," the long-haired man said expressionlessly.
At that moment, a voice came from the darkness.
"Captain Yan, I have confirmed that Ma Xingbang is indeed dead."
"Hmm." The long-haired man, known as Captain Yan, gave a soft "hmm," seemingly without much emotion.
"Is his wife pregnant?" Captain Yan suddenly asked a question that left everyone puzzled.
The voice from the darkness answered again: "She's pregnant."
