Chapter 247: Sides

Chen Meng was clearly different after he received treatment at the hospital. Before this, he was troubled by insomnia, but at least he was awake. Now, he looked befuddled. Even his eyes were murky. Chen Meng was ready to go to the seventh floor after he took the medicine. However, he turned and saw Situ An. He felt strangely attached to Situ An, like Situ An was the kindest person to him in the world other than his parents.

“President Situ? Nice to meet you.” Chen Meng greeted him nervously and politely, like a kid meeting the senior of his family.

Situ An didn’t answer instantly, but he turned to Lu Zang as if getting his permission.

“He is our new family member. He’ll be staying on the seventh floor.” Lu Zang mentioned the word family.

Hearing that, Situ An’s expression shifted. He smiled brightly. “Since you’re family, tell me if you need anything in the future. I still have some connections in Han Hai.”

“I... I don’t even know what to say. You are even kinder than what is depicted of you on the television.” Chen Meng did not expect this Situ An. He almost bowed down.

Gao Ming studied everything. Before Chen Meng accepted the treatment, he had a lot of pain in his heart. He was a very sensitive and arrogant person. Many killers became killers because of their personalities. However, he saw a man literally change his personality before his eyes. The way Chen Meng treated Situ An was better than how he treated his parents.

“Something’s not right.” Gao Ming didn’t want to stay anymore. He took over the cart with the drugs and prepared to leave.

“Xiao Lu, don’t be so impolite.” Lu Zang warned in a low voice before brightening up with a smile at Gao Ming, “He’s also Doctor Lu. He’s a new doctor. We come from the same hometown.”

“Even if humans can gain part of the unknown power, how can they resist the many ghosts of the shadow world?” Situ An always had this question, “Why is the shadow world so careful?”

“We’ve cooperated for so many years already. You have a certain understanding of the shadow world. Have you considered this simple problem?” Lu Zang said some shocking things. “Do not be confused by the definitions of humans and ghosts. Have you wondered why the scary monsters are trapped in the shadow world? Is it because they don’t want to shake loose of despair and other negative emotions?”

“What do you mean?”

“Perhaps in this world, we are the ghosts, and those who first died in the shadow world are the humans. Reality has been taken over by ghosts, and everything we see is the beautification of the dream. In reality, the real humans have become zombies and monsters. They growl and roar as they try to take back what they are owed, but they cannot because the shadow world has been destroyed,” Lu Zang looked at Situ An calmly. “Which side is the real world is dependent on who survives in the end. Those who remain are the humans, and those who die are the ghosts.”

Situ An stood up silently. The ghost's wails echoed in his ears.

“I’m just kidding.” Lu Zang smiled as usual. “Let’s move away from that. How many people have you saved lately? We need to collect as many sacrifices as possible before the eruption of anomalies.”

“I’ve taken over the entire Han Hai Charity. The people they save are all my people.” Situ An thought of something. “I’ve prepared everything, but I’m still anxious. Are there other parents than myself in Han Hai? Just like how you found me at first, the shadow world could have reached out to them too.”

Lu Zang nodded. “Of course. Each dead God corresponds to one parent.”
