Book 1: Chapter 10: The Truth You Do Not Know
Finally, the doctor’s identity is revealed! And the Zhu siblings’ story somehow manages to become a touch more tragic.Do you guys think Ye Xiao made the correct decision? What would you have done in his place?
“And the next time I opened my eyes, I discovered that I was lying in a hospital.”
As Zhu Nan murmured all of this, his gaze remained fixated on the ceiling the entire time, as though he was trapped in a distant memory.
At this point, Ye Xiao couldn’t help but cut in to say, “In other words, you don’t know how you escaped from that area of water either?”
“Yes. Moreover, at the time, Qin Ni, Hua Xia, Wei Jin Ping, Xu Yi Feng, and Senior Ouyang were in the same hospital as me. None of us seemed to have suffered any major harm, just some minor flesh wounds.”
“Then what about Professor Yu Zhi De? And where is your sister’s body?”
“Don’t know. I never saw Xiao Qian again, nor the professor. After that excursion, I cut off contact with the others. Until…until I felt my body’s condition becoming abnormal. I was extremely terrified, so I went looking for the professor by myself…”
“What’s with the monster that you said had escaped?”
“I don’t know very much about that either. When I first went to the professor’s house, I found out that he actually already had a mermaid in his basement. It was very similar to the one we caught at sea that year, and this one ate humans as well. The professor was using dead humans to feed it this entire time. Then the mermaid bit the professor to death and ran away through the sewers.”
