Great, It’s the Pervy Neighbor. We’re Doomed

Jiang Ran's mind went blank.

He clearly remembered being in Room 801 at Wang Nuli's place, helping him with those bamboo materials.

How did he end up back in his own apartment when he opened his eyes again?

Moreover, the top of his head was throbbing with pain?

Most disturbingly, his right fingers that had just touched his scalp had traces of dried blood and blood fragments.

"Could it be..."

Jiang Ran wondered if one of his other personalities had taken over...

Thinking back, during the last incident when he and Xiao Q were cornered in the bedroom by that Caucasian chainsaw man.

His memory stopped there, and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself at home, unharmed but covered in mysterious injuries—just like now.

"This shouldn't be happening?" Jiang Ran scratched his head.

Most patients with dissociative identity disorder have no memory when another personality takes over—it's like being asleep during that period.

But Jiang Ran was special.

Back on Earth in his previous life, when his secondary personality took over, he wouldn't black out but could clearly observe what that personality did with his body.

So what was happening now?

Another personality emerged, yet he had no memory of it?

What exactly did his other personality do?

A wave of fear washed over Jiang Ran.

"Jiang Ran, what's wrong? You look terrible."

Jiang Ran turned to see Wang Qingzhao's mature beauty face and asked, "Qingzhao, when you arrived, did you really only see me lying on the sofa? Nothing else strange?"

Wang Qingzhao shook her head firmly. "No, why do you ask?"

Jiang Ran lowered his head in thought. "Nothing, it's nothing."

"Oh right, is this box in your hand for me? What's inside?"

Jiang Ran decided to set aside his worries and focus on the present.

"Oh, last time I visited, I noticed you were taking the cheapest medication—ineffective with many side effects."

"This box contains two bottles of the latest American medication for treating dissociative identity disorder. You should try them."

Accepting the box covered entirely in English text,

Jiang Ran stared at the foreign words—truthfully, he couldn't understand them.

But he knew this stuff couldn't be cheap.

"This must have cost you. I can't just accept such expensive gifts. How much were these? I'll transfer the money."

Jiang Ran insisted.

Wang Qingzhao smiled and shook her head. "No need. Just treat me to dinner."

Jiang Ran refused firmly. "No way! Please tell me how much they cost!"

Wang Qingzhao replied, "Converted to our currency, each bottle costs twenty-five thousand, so fifty thousand for both."

Jiang Ran's hand, which had been holding his phone ready to make the payment,

froze completely.

"F-fifty thousand?"

Jiang Ran was stunned—his entire savings across all accounts didn't amount to that much!

Wang Qingzhao chuckled. "See? Just dinner is fine. If you really want to repay me, do it when you have money later."

"Oh, try the medication first to check its effects and any side effects. Continue if it works normally, but return it if there are adverse reactions. Don't force yourself just to save money."

Jiang Ran nodded. "Alright."

Though he knew perfectly well—once purchased, medicines couldn't be returned.

"Return to you, then back to the seller"? What kind of fantasy was that?

This was clearly Wang Qingzhao giving him an out.

At best, she could resell them at a discount to other patients.

Since he couldn't pay for the medicine, a dinner invitation it would be.

Jiang Ran and Wang Qingzhao left Room 304.

Before heading downstairs, Jiang Ran mentioned needing hospital treatment for his head wound first.

Only now did Wang Qingzhao notice and asked what happened.

Truthfully clueless, Jiang Ran blamed it on being hit by falling objects while walking downstairs.

They took the elevator to the first floor.

Exiting through the glass automatic doors, they saw a white ambulance driving away from the apartment.

Manager Xiao Zhang happened to be returning from the security booth.

Jiang Ran asked what happened—why was there an ambulance?

Manager Xiao Zhang explained, "That kite-making Wang Nuli from Room 801 must have gone insane from his craft. He tied kites to himself and jumped—probably thought he could fly like one."

Hearing this, Jiang Ran froze for three seconds before muttering strangely to himself, "Right, right... he must have gone mad from kite-making and jumped on his own!"

Jiang Ran dared not speculate whether his alternate personality might have done something to Wang Nuli during that missing time.

He had to convince himself: Wang Nuli's death had nothing to do with him. Even if his alternate personality was responsible, it wasn't his fault.

He was completely innocent—his personalities were too!

Therefore, Wang Nuli's death was unrelated to him—he was just a bystander!

Yes, that's how it was!

He refused to let this disrupt his peaceful life or land him in prison.

Even though it was all just speculation.

Lost in thought, Jiang Ran noticed Wang Qingzhao had already pulled up in her car.

He got in, and they drove away from Alice Apartment.

What Jiang Ran didn't know:

Ever since his "self-proclaimed servant girl" personality took over, the "Neighbors Over Distant Relatives" livestream had exploded.

From Middle-aged Uncle's comment: ["Damn! He woke up after that?! A metal wrench to the head, and another personality still takes over like nothing happened?"]

To Domineering Female CEO's remark: ["Why does this personality talk like some ancient maiden? So effeminate..."]

Then I am the Hero's analysis: ["Shocking! This personality fights as well as the last one but with completely different methods! If it were last time's personality, Wang Nuli would've been beaten to death! But this one turned a kite fanatic into... a kite! So artistic!"]

Finally, Ultimate Rich Kid's realization: ["Now I get why Jiang Ran had the least investments last round but the most this time—this personality is downright cheating! Are multiple personalities always this OP?"]

The livestream went wild because everyone had assumed Jiang Ran was done for.

Yet against all odds, not only did he survive—he got revenge!

Comments flooded with ["Legendary!"] and ["Incredible!"].

After this frenzy, seeing Jiang Ran and Wang Qingzhao drive off in the main livestream footage finally calmed things down.

Then Middle-aged Uncle raised a new topic:

["Hey, remember what Jiang Ran's personality told Wang Qingzhao? That the host personality (current Jiang Ran) is too dominant, making it hard for others to take over? Do you think that's true or false?"]
