Chapter 98 - You Were a Dead Man Before



The night was hazy. In the bedroom, Doctor Lin, who had been crying alone in the bedroom, was lying on her side on the bed. Her brows were slightly furrowed and she had already fallen asleep. However, between her brows, there seemed to be a black halo.

Even if she did not want to sleep, she had to.

Her sister did not want what happened next to disturb her.

In the bathroom that was one wall away, Zhou Ze continued holding the towel.

Her sister-in-law tilted her head and stood up straight, continuing to stare at him.

It seemed to have frozen at that moment, and it was so heavy that it felt like the ink on the ink had started to leak.

Zhou Ze never thought that it would be her. He really never thought about it.

In Zhou Ze’s eyes, she was just a child who was inexperienced in the ways of the world. She was a little arrogant and naive. Furthermore, she had been in this bathroom before. When she opened the door and saw herself suffering a backlash from saving someone in the hospital, she had peed her pants.

If this was also a type of acting,

This was too much.

Furthermore, the reason that she had given seemed very valid, but in reality, it was very far-fetched. Of course, it was possible that some people’s thoughts were so unique.

She only had her own view of the world and cared about her own feelings. She only knew what was right and wrong.

This world…

Whether there were seven billion people or just one person made no difference to her.

Her sister-in-law started to walk forward.

Zhou Ze was a gift from her to her sister, a gift to make her happy. However, this present made her even sadder.

As a gift, he failed.

Unqualified things.

He had to abandon it.

They had to destroy it.

There was no need for him to continue existing.

Zhou Ze put down the towel. Black nails slowly grew between his fingers.

Buzz!

A trembling sound rang out.

Zhou Ze felt a sharp pain in his eardrums, and his vision blurred. Then, that tilted head appeared in front of him.

She tilted her head and looked at herself. She had the innocence of a young girl and the innocence of a child.

Pa!

The clothes on his chest split open, and Zhou Ze flew backward, smashing the mirror behind him. A bloody wound appeared on his chest, and blood flowed out.

“Why can’t you just live a good life?”

Little sister-in-law muttered to herself.

And then…

Another crisp sound rang out from Zhou Ze’s body. If Zhou Ze had not subconsciously turned his body, his neck might have been broken. Even so, there was a clear wound on his neck.

“Why can’t we be together?”

Little sister-in-law smiled.

She seemed to be asking Zhou Ze.

She seemed to be asking herself,

But the essence was the same.

She was not prepared to receive any answer.

“You’re a ghost soldier?” Zhou Ze was confused. “If you’re a ghost soldier, how could you kill so many people?”

The aunt ignored him, but the smile on her face only deepened.

Zhou Ze’s pupils constricted, and his body flipped forward. The washbasin behind him and all the glass in the bathroom exploded.

Pa!

The glass shards that shot out from everywhere made the cramped toilet look beautiful.

Blood vessels waved.

Glazed glaze flickered.

This was a perfect spot to take wedding photos.

As long as the bride was not afraid of being disfigured.

“You guys, why are there so many things?”

Aunty raised her hand.

Right at this moment…

Zhou Ze’s hand reached over as well.

The sharp black nails pierced into her sister-in-law’s palm.

However, her originally sharp nails suddenly turned soft. The skin on her sister-in-law’s palm was so soft that it could be broken, but Zhou Ze’s nails could not pierce through it.

“Can’t you guys make me feel better?”

The little sister-in-law grabbed with her fingers. From an outsider’s point of view, her fingers were intertwined with Zhou Ze’s.

And then…

Zhou Ze felt a piercing pain.

Ten fingers linked to the heart.

Right now, Zhou Ze’s fingernail was slowly being removed. It was as if someone was using a pair of forceps to remove the nail. The pain that came from the depths of one’s soul made one despair even more. It completely exceeded the limits of physical torture.

All this while, Zhou Ze’s nails, which had never failed before, had completely lost their former glory in front of his sister-in-law.

The smile on her sister-in-law’s lips grew wider.

“You actually used the thing I gave you to deal with me?”

The next moment…

A long black fingernail grew out of her little sister-in-law’s fingertip and pierced into Zhou Ze’s palm.

First, it was the pain of having his nails cut through his body, and then it was the torture of having his nails cut into his body.

This was the first time that Zhou Ze had been punished by himself.

“I didn’t do anything wrong. You are the ones who are wrong.”

Her sister-in-law continued muttering to herself and pushed Zhou Ze forward.

“A good life, why not?”

Buzz!

Zhou Ze was sent flying and slammed into the wall. The fingers on his right hand were dripping with blood and flesh. There were even five nail holes. It was a ghastly sight.

“I’ve put in so much effort, so why can’t you guys… have a good life?”

Her sister-in-law kept asking herself.

Like a curious baby.

However, her current image was not cute at all.

Crack…

Aunty raised her arm.

She was still half a meter away from Zhou Ze.

However, Zhou Ze felt as if a hand had grabbed his neck and lifted him up. The pain and anxiety on his neck were so clear, and he could no longer breathe.

His feet were already off the ground, and he was like a prisoner on a fire rack, waiting for the judgment of fate before him.

Tilting his head,

Smile.

“And who gave you the courage to come and interrogate me after you found out who was behind this?

You are just a puppet controlled by me.

Who gave you the illusion to resist? ”

“Er… Er…”

Zhou Ze wanted to make some noise and talk, but because his neck was stuck, he could not make any clear sounds.

As a prisoner of death,

“Even your last words have been taken away.

Little sister-in-law was asking a question, but she did not give you the right to answer.

“Lin Yi, I tried my best, but this game is really not that fun.”

Little sister-in-law muttered to herself.

And then…

She changed directions.

Continue.

Tilting his head.

“Your sister is still unhappy. Your sister is so annoying.”

Then…

She tilted her head in another direction.

“After we kill him, we’ll kill your sister as well. Then we’ll have nothing to worry about.

Right? ”

Zhou Ze felt the strength in his neck suddenly increase.

The suffocating feeling overwhelmed him.

His lungs burned with pain, almost exploding.

His eyes were beginning to turn white, and the spasms in his body could no longer be restrained. This was a sign of death, a warning that his body was on the verge of death.

The sister-in-law in front kept tilting her head ninety degrees and mumbling to herself like she was communicating with someone else.

It was like two little girls carrying Peppa Pig’s backpack were standing in front of a claw machine.

They discussed which doll to catch.

Which doll was easy to catch?

Which doll looks cuter?

“Cough cough… cough cough…”

A cough sounded.

Her sister-in-law looked up in surprise at Zhou Ze.

She was a little surprised.

Still alive?

And then…

The smile on her face slowly turned serious.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Yes.

What’s wrong with you?

Zhou Ze’s eyes started to glow with a green light, and the bronze luster on his body started to slowly spread out. The fingernails on his right hand that had been broken earlier actually grew back.

This time, it was not as black as before, but there was an ancient luster to it.

Zhou Ze opened his mouth.

Two fangs slowly emerged.

Green-faced and fierce-looking.

It was sinister and terrifying, with an aura of abhorrence.

The force that was originally binding Zhou Ze’s neck suddenly dissipated. Zhou Ze slowly landed on the ground, squatted down, and used one hand to support the broken tile. Then, he slowly raised his head.

The pair of strange green eyes stared fixedly at his sister-in-law, who was tilting her head.

“What does that mean?”

“What’s going on?”

She was confused.

The toy that she had created, or the gift that she had personally chosen to pack for her sister, had undergone an unexpected change.

An unexpected change.

“Ah…”

A hoarse voice came from Zhou Ze’s throat. He slowly opened his arms and stood up.

Very slowly.

But very determined.

Just like last time,

Half of Zhou Ze’s skin was bronze in color, while the other half of his skin was beginning to crack and crack. Blood was slowly flowing out.

The little sister-in-law tilted her head and watched Zhou Ze walk towards her step by step.

She was confused.

She was at a loss.

“You’re Zhou Ze?”

This time, his sister-in-law needed Zhou Ze’s answer.

But now, Zhou Ze was too lazy to give her any answer.

Little sister-in-law reached out her hand, but this time, Zhou Ze was not sent flying. He continued walking steadily.

Just like that,

He walked up to her.

Little sister-in-law’s nails pierced towards Zhou Ze’s body.

Pu!

Her nails dug in.

However…

The moment her nails pierced into her skin, the muscles on her wounds started to contract, locking her nails into her body.

She wanted to pull it out.

But he could not pull it out at all.

It was as if there were countless little mouths sucking on their nails.

Very tight.

It was very depressing.

Her sister-in-law looked at Zhou Ze and saw his green eyes. A look of enlightenment appeared on her face as she muttered,

“You… you were actually dead before…”

Zhou Ze extended his hand.

She grabbed her sister-in-law’s head.

Little sister-in-law wanted to resist, but she could not.

Crack…

It sounded like bones slowly moving.

Zhou Ze grabbed his sister-in-law’s head.

Not crushed.

It did not pierce.

Instead, he slowly tilted her face.

Pull it back.

Whoosh.

He straightened his face.

It looked like

It was much more comfortable.
