A psychotic patient was rescued by a heroine, and the explosive news got a lot of attention. However, this time, he wasn't the only one who saw the female hero. All of the prison guards saw her, so how could he be hallucinating?
After Xiao Gang received the news, he slumped into his chair as if he had turned into a pile of mud. He muttered, "How is this possible?" How was this possible?
Bai Zhijin was very safe. After the Withered Leaf successfully brought him out of the mental hospital, they gave him money to buy a brand-new style of clothes, and even did a new hairstyle at the barbershop. When he came out, he looked completely different from before, and even acquaintances would not be able to recognize him.
After the appearance had changed, the Withered Leaf brought Bai Zhijin to an inconspicuous area. They rented a small house there and temporarily stayed there.
"Why did you save me?" Bai Zhijin asked.
"I love you."
"What else?"
"I want you to kill someone, please." The Withered Leaf had a smile on its face.
"You … You must be joking! " Bai Zhijin was shocked.
"Nope." The Withered Leaf butterfly solemnly said as it took out a photo from its bag and handed it to him. "He took the photo. There was a woman in her thirties on it. Her face was kind and she looked like a normal housewife." Did you see who it was? "Her name is Ali, the person you want to kill is her!"
"This... Killing... "No way!" Bai Zhijin's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
The smile on Withered Leaf's face instantly disappeared. She suddenly grabbed a dagger and ferociously stabbed towards Bai Zhi Jin's chest. Bai Zhijin was very close to the Withered Leaf, and could not dodge at all. All he saw was a flash of white light and an ice-cold thing pierced into his chest.
Pain, pain! Bai Zhijin fell to the ground and started twitching at the feet of the Withered Leaf. The Withered Leaf was like a wooden statue as it stood there quietly and said with a voice as cold as ice, "Should we kill it? "Kill or not kill?"
"Should we kill? "Kill or not kill?" These words were like a magic spell. It hovered around Bai Zhijin's ears, and his head was about to explode.
Her chest was still hurting, but it wasn't as memorable as before. Maybe she was hiding in the darkness now that the Withered Leaf was gone. Bai Zhijin carefully touched his chest. Was it blood? It didn't seem like it. He didn't feel any pain when his hand touched his chest. Not only his chest, but every inch of his skin seemed to be dripping wet.
Only then did Bai Zhijin realize that it was just a nightmare. The water on his chest was not blood, but sweat, and his entire body was covered with sweat as if he had just come out of a bath.
This dream was too terrifying and too real. No one could believe that this was a dream.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this is just a dream … Bai Zhijin mumbled to himself like an old man who had been frightened too much and had lost his mind. He turned on the lights in a flurry and the fluorescent lights lit up the room until it was completely white. Only then did he feel less scared.
It was enough to experience the horror of the nightmare once, but Bai Zhijin did not want to experience it again. Either the Withered Leaf would ask him to kill someone, or he would continue to suffer her torture.
Bai Zhijin was on the verge of collapse. He didn't know what to do. He wouldn't be able to kill an innocent person, but he would be tortured by nightmares again and again, and there would be even more perverted torture later on. Sooner or later, he would go crazy.
At this time, Bai Zhijin missed the days when she used to work. Despite the hard work of delivering couriers, every day she felt full. Every night when she returned home, she would lie down on the bed and sleep peacefully. He thought back to riding his electric bike all over the world delivering couriers, and how he had felt when he had driven Illyan home. His nose was sore.
Suddenly, a face appeared in front of Bai Zhijin. It was Lu Xiang. Although they had only met once, the young man had left a deep impression on him — he seemed to know exactly what had happened to him, and he had a deeply hidden air about him.
Maybe this young man could help him.
Bai Zhijin hurriedly went to Jianghai University to look for Lu Xiang, as if he had found a lifesaver. With great effort, he finally found Lu Xiang's contact information and got in touch with him.
On a evening when the sun was setting, Bai Zhijin finally saw Lu Xiang. It seemed like Lu Xiang had already known he would come. With a faint smile, he brought Bai Zhijin to a chair next to the school basketball court.
"Tell me your story. Maybe I can help you." Lu Xiang went straight to the point.
Bai Zhijin did not hide anything as he narrated his own experience without missing a single thing. During this time, Lu Xiang didn't interrupt him and just quietly listened.
"The Withered Leaf wants you to kill someone?" After Lu Xiang finished listening to Bai Zhijin's story, he turned around and asked.
Bai Zhijin nodded.
"Then go and kill him."
"What?" Bai Zhijin was so angry that the veins on his forehead were popping. "Is this the idea that you came up with for me?"
Lu Xiang smiled and whispered into Bai Zhijin's ears. Only then did Bai Zhijin's tightly knitted brows relax.
According to the address given by the Withered Butterfly, Bai Zhijin came to a residential district. The planning and construction here was not bad, and there was a large open space between each residential building. However, it was unknown whether it was because people were too busy or for some other reason, but many of the pavilions were empty.
It was the neighborhood where Ellie lived.
Bai Zhijin was filled with questions. What was the relationship between Ali and the Withered Leaf? Why would she want to kill her? Also, the Withered Leaf was so powerful, why didn't she do it herself? Wouldn't it be unnecessary for him to make a move?
Bai Zhijin arrived at a small sun shelter. This was the only way for residents to enter the residential complex. He had been staring at the intersection the entire time, as if he was an indefatigable scanning machine.
It wasn't a waste of a day. Ellie appeared. Bai Zhijin quickly followed behind her.
Ellie, dressed in a black suit, walked slowly, oblivious to the fact that she was being followed.
A girl with two crutches walked in front of him. Bai Zhijin's heart ached as he walked unsteadily. Poor girl, it was unknown if it was because of a congenital disability, or because of an accident, or because she had no family to take care of, or because she had a strong personality.
Perhaps the girl's stride had been a little too big, the cane had slipped, and with a cry of alarm she had fallen sideways to the ground.
Bai Zhijin reacted pretty quickly, he rushed towards the girl in a hurry. However, he was still too far away from the girl. It was too late. He only saw a black shadow flash before his eyes, and the girl was caught.
It's Ellie!
The girl seemed to be heavy, and Ellie's feet were unsteady as she was pressed to the ground. Bai Zhijin was stunned. He had thought that the person that the Withered Leaf wanted to kill was an unforgivable scoundrel!
Ellie was pressed down by the girl. His clothes were torn, his arms were bruised, and blood was trickling from them. Fortunately, the girl was unharmed and said emotionally, "Thank you, thank you …"
"You're welcome!" Alice smiled and helped the girl up, "You have to be more careful in the future. You won't always be so lucky!" After saying that, he left, as if he was greeting someone he had met by chance.
Hot tears flashed in the girl's eyes. She sincerely thanked him and continued to move on. Bai Zhijin whispered, "Do you know her?" The girl shook her head. "I don't know him. He's really an enthusiastic person!"
Bai Zhijin was stunned. He quickly followed after Alli, who had already walked far away.
