Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 316 So Kind!

Seeing this, A-Yuan's heart pounded. He took a step back in fear, then stopped and whispered:

"Captain Lu, what's wrong? Is something wrong outside?"

"..."

Lu Chusheng did not turn around.

He didn't even respond.

"..."

From A Yuan's perspective, all he could see was Lu Chusheng's hand, which was gripping the window tightly, his veins bulging.

"I rely on..."

A-Yuan thought of some terrifying images and took another step back.

...Could there be a whole bunch of monsters in the yard?

"Captain Lu!!!"

A Yuan screamed and frantically lunged forward, grabbing Lu Chusheng's leg as he tried to step onto the windowsill, her eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.

"No matter what happened, don't jump off the building, Captain Lu!! Isn't it better to be alive?! Let's discuss things together! Why would you suddenly jump off a building?!"

Lu Chusheng, whose leg was being dragged along: "..."

He took a deep breath and, for the first time, turned back with a very distorted expression, saying, "Let go."

"Captain Lu, we can have a good talk—"

"This villa only has two floors."

Lu Chusheng's forehead veins bulged, showing that he was frantically suppressing his inner rage.

Do you know what "second floor" means?

A Yuan's behavior once again made Lu Chusheng think that he might be out of his mind.

The second floor... How big of a person could jump from the second floor and die?

A Yuan: "..."

A-Yuan belatedly realized that his actions were a bit strange, and slowly let go. If you ignored his red eyes, which looked like they were about to burst into tears, there was really nothing unusual about him.

Lu Chusheng was somewhat surprised to notice this, but he quickly put it aside; he had more important things to do now.

Yu Shijiu might really have gone mad, because he actually carried some weird thing that he didn't know what it was and went to the flower bed all by himself.

Lu Chusheng had been to the rose garden near the villa's iron gate more than once during the day. He felt something was off about that place. When he stood at the edge of the flower garden and looked around, he always felt like someone was watching him.

At first, he thought it was a "lady" in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor... but it wasn't.

Those were several gazes, so close they could almost penetrate a person's pores, cold and trembling.

Even though Lu Chusheng knew that Yu Shijiu could completely resist when she activated her talent skill, after waking up from the dream, the image of Yu Shijiu laughing and kicking the security window on the second floor kept appearing in his mind.

Yu Shijiu looked only twelve or thirteen years old at that time... or even younger, who knows?

Lu Chusheng's heart skipped a beat. He didn't look back and jumped down from the second floor to chase after Yu Shijiu, who was running away in a daze. Naturally, he ignored the silent tear stains that fell from the corners of A Yuan's eyes after she lowered her head.

Silence returned to bedroom number eight.

A cold wind blew in through the open window, and A-Yuan felt her face getting a little dry.

It felt like the astringent, stinging sensation of some liquid that had solidified and then dried.

A Yuan suddenly trembled for a few seconds, wiped his face haphazardly, turned around and quickly climbed onto the bed, shrinking head and toe into the thick quilt.

"...I can't die, I can't die, I can't die..."

A Yuan's trembling voice came from under the covers, broken and discordant in the cold bedroom with the window pushed open.

"...I must not die...I must not die..."

A Yuan's live stream wasn't very popular. Apart from the part where Lu Chusheng saved him, which boosted the viewership, there were only a few scattered viewers left in his live stream.

"Is he really afraid of dying?"

"Nonsense, who isn't afraid of death?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, of course I'm afraid of death too, I just think he seems to be a little too afraid of dying, doesn't he?"

"It seems to be the same..."

"..."

The few players who were still watching A Yuan's live stream chatted for a bit out of boredom. After the voice of the person in the blanket disappeared from the screen, they switched to another live stream.

No one will pay attention to a player who is so scared that he hypnotizes himself to sleep forever.

------------

"Wow."

They run really fast.

"Oooooooo-"

Yu Shijiu's last voice faded into the eerie screams of the infant.

Contrary to his expectations of "motherly love and childlike affection," the roses that had come to life in the dead of night but had not yet fully bloomed actually pierced through the infant monster's body when they saw it.

The infant ghost couldn't die, but it was in great pain. Its bluish-purple little hands instinctively tried to grab something, but then fell limply to its sides.

Yu Shijiu, splattered with black blood: "..."

He was stunned by the sudden attack and never expected that these roses, which resembled "Madam," would for a moment begin to doubt his own satisfaction.

Could it be that these roses are not actually—

"Woooooooooooo..."

The infant monster sitting on his shoulders was quickly dragged into the flowerbed by the rose stems that pierced through the tower's belly—

"Excuse me."

Once she came to her senses, Yu Shijiu quickly stopped the baby monster by its tiny neck and politely engaged in a "friendly exchange" with the roses that were trying to drag the baby monster away.

He stepped on the rose that had been the first to pierce the infant's grotesque abdomen, and as the other tried to pierce his foot, he used one hand to spread open the large scissors—"snip!"

The cut rose (not fully bloomed) made a gurgling sound as crimson, putrid blood dripped onto the ground, splattering onto Yu Shijiu's shoes and pants.

Failed.

Yu Shijiu jumped off the building to avoid getting his shoes and pants dirty, but they still got dirty after he jumped.

But there's nothing we can do now.

He continued his "friendly exchange," stepping on the "corpse" of the cut rose bush with a smile, and said:

"I promised it I would find it a mother, so are you its mothers?"

—That shouldn't be the case, otherwise why would the baby monster be pierced through?

Although monsters won't die until their fatal weakness is found, that doesn't mean they don't feel pain... In some ways, the baby monster is still a little baby.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

Upon seeing that Yu Shijiu had avenged him, the infant monster instantly burst into loud wailing, its sharp and piercing cries echoing throughout the entire villa courtyard.

Yu Shijiu even heard the sound of many windows being closed tightly coming from the second floor.

Yes, it should be turned off tighter; it's quite jarring.

Yu Shijiu, who was closest to the person in question, understood this deeply.

He almost thought his ears were about to explode.

The infant ghost had no idea that he was disgusted by his own crying, and subconsciously stretched out his arm to hug Yu Shijiu.

"Hug" in a physical sense.

Looking at the baby's strangely long, thin arms, Yu Shijiu remained silent for a few seconds before sighing.

He hugged the aggrieved-looking baby monster and casually patted its big head.

Sometimes being too kind can be a burden.
