Returning Home 09

"That is because the appearance of the others followed a pattern. They constantly fed me negative emotions. My parents' selfless devotion made me feel guilty, while the others constantly beat me down, reminding me that I was a burden... Only your appearance had no pattern... It was too easy to guess."

The doctor did not show much surprise. "You and your little pet have caused far too much trouble... You are all sinners."

Before he could finish his sentence, Fang Zhiyi grabbed the pen holder on the desk and hurled it at him. The doctor raised his arm to block it. In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged several blows. Fang Zhiyi was slightly alarmed; this man of unknown origin was incredibly formidable.

But suddenly, the doctor stopped his movements. "It's a pity. Although I really want to, with my current abilities, I truly cannot kill you directly. Your soul is far tougher than it was before. It is a shame. If you had been willing to join us from the very beginning, perhaps your ending would have been much better."

Fang Zhiyi frowned. Suddenly, a wave of dizziness washed over his head, and the surrounding environment began to distort. The office shattered and restructured itself, transforming into the room he was most familiar with. His mother's calls faintly drifted into his ears.

"You can wake up once, twice, but... you will remain here forever, until you voluntarily end your own life."

"You motherf—"

"Zhiyi? Zhiyi, come out and eat!" Fang Zhiyi only felt his mind plunge into chaos. His previously clear perception was clouded once more, and his eyes grew somewhat dull.

However, the sound of something tearing through the air brought his blurred consciousness back to clarity.

Fang Zhiyi saw the blurry doctor solidify once again, and his gaze was fixed right behind Fang Zhiyi. Fang Zhiyi also felt a gust of air sweeping in from behind him. He abruptly turned his head, only to feel a layer of softness press against his lips. Fang Zhiyi widened his eyes, staring at the pair of phoenix eyes that were mere inches away.

Holy crap, was I just kissed by force?

In a mere instant, the person who kissed him drifted past him. The sword in her hand trembled, and a wave of sword aura gradually expanded, pointing straight at the unidentified doctor!

"How troublesome. Miss Yue, are you sure you want to do this?" The man's smile froze.

"I warned you. Whoever touches him, I kill."

As she spoke, the sword aura slashed right through the doctor's head, and his skull slid down along the clean cut.

"What a pity..." Even though his head slipped off, he did not die, but continued speaking. "Yue Anyao, don't forget, you also signed a contract with it..."

Following his death, that body, along with the desk and chairs, rapidly decayed. The entire space began to collapse. Without hesitation, Yue Anyao grabbed Fang Zhiyi and retreated. She looked back at Fang Zhiyi, her eyes carrying an indescribable emotion. She opened her mouth to say something, but Fang Zhiyi couldn't hear it.

But he saw with his own eyes as countless threads abruptly appeared and entangled Yue Anyao's body.

Yue Anyao tried to resist, but it was entirely futile.

Fang Zhiyi subconsciously reached out to pull her back, but those threads violently yanked her backward. Yue Anyao gradually disappeared into the chaos, but she suddenly bared her teeth and gave Fang Zhiyi a bright, radiant smile.

"Anyao?" Fang Zhiyi suddenly sat up from the hospital bed.

A young nurse playing on her phone nearby was startled. Her phone had died, and it just so happened that Fang Zhiyi's ward had a power outlet.

"Doctor! Doctor! The comatose patient is awake!"

Fang Zhiyi's parents rushed over. They looked at the awakened Fang Zhiyi with faces full of joy, while Fang Zhiyi felt a bit dazed.

"Dad, Mom! Where is Yue Anyao?"

"Yue Anyao? Who is that?" Mother Fang looked at Fang Zhiyi in confusion, while Father Fang turned his head and immediately called for the doctor.

"You finally woke up, don't scare your father and me!"

Fang Zhiyi froze in place.

The following events seemed like something he had already experienced once: observation, discharge, rehabilitation training... His family hadn't sold their house, and his relatives came to visit him. Though they were nagging, they all cared very much.

Fang Zhiyi even wondered if he was still trapped in an illusion.

But when Mother Fang impatiently told him to stop staying at home all day being an eyesore, the stone in Fang Zhiyi's heart finally dropped.

"By the way, Mom, how much did my hospitalization cost?"

"How much... a lot, anyway. But, hey? Honey!"

Father Fang walked out of the bathroom. "What's wrong?"

"Speaking of the hospital expenses, do you remember if a doctor seemed to have paid the fees for our son?"

Father Fang frowned and thought for a moment. "Now that you mention it, there does seem to be such a thing."

"What do you mean 'seem to'? Such a big matter... but why can't I remember who it was?"

"I can't remember either. It feels like there was such a person, but also like there wasn't."

Mother Fang took Fang Zhiyi on a trip to the hospital just for this, but after asking around, there was no such doctor.

"Have you had any doctors who resigned or suddenly quit recently?" Fang Zhiyi asked.

"No, how could that be... Fang Zhiyi, I think you might need to come in for a few more checkups... Are you having hallucinations again?"

Looking at the doctor's smiling face, Fang Zhiyi quickly shook his head.

After confirming that this was indeed his original world, Fang Zhiyi also realized that it seemed that entity had completely erased Yue Anyao's existence.

Just because she saved him?

Why was Yue Anyao in this world? Fang Zhiyi wandered aimlessly down the street, his mind in total chaos. Yue Anyao was just one of the supporting characters he had met in the many worlds he had visited. As for why she was here, and why she saved him, that was her own choice. He had finally made it back with great difficulty; he didn't have to risk his life anymore...

Right, it was all her own doing. What did it have to do with me...

I still have my own life. A new life has just begun...

......

"Buddy, lend me some cash to spend." Someone suddenly spoke up, but in the next moment, this street-blocking petty thief took a vicious punch right to the face.

"It was all her own doing..."

The petty thief sat on the ground clutching his face, looking at the man in front of him in absolute terror. The expression on the man's face was twisted and terrifying, but... he was actually crying? You hit me, why the hell are you crying? Are you a psychopath?

Seeing this man stepping closer to him, the petty thief was so scared he hugged his head.

But Fang Zhiyi suddenly paused, as if he had sensed something. He turned his head and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, there were a few dark clouds in the sky. And behind the dark clouds, the complete canopy of the heavens was gradually being torn open by something. A massive rift simply appeared right there.

Immediately after, a gigantic eyeball appeared behind the rift. The eyeball darted around wildly, eventually fixing its gaze upon Fang Zhiyi.

"Hey, did you see that?" Fang Zhiyi grabbed the petty thief who was clutching his head. The petty thief looked in terror in the direction he pointed, but only saw a few clouds. He didn't understand what madness had taken over the person in front of him, and just held onto his head tightly.

A moment later, Fang Zhiyi let go of the guy in his hands, allowing him to turn tail and run for his life.

He stood there, staring straight into that eye.

"Why are you here? I thought you were dead."

"Are you kidding? That thing is no match for me!" Little Hei grumbled. "I just wanted to come and see how you were doing before I left. It would have been a hassle if I dropped you in the wrong place... But looking at you, who ticked you off?"

"Someone did tick me off."

"Who? No way, with your skills, is there still someone in this world who dares to mess with you? Damn, are you crying?"

Little Hei looked astonished.

Fang Zhiyi, crying?

Fang Zhiyi turned his face away.

Little Hei followed beside him, just like before.

"Don't worry. I don't have to run around anymore, and the transmigrators I've developed are pretty capable..."

Fang Zhiyi ignored it and started tidying up the room.

"You know I didn't throw you on purpose. The situation was critical back then... That's why I came specifically to give you a proper farewell..."

Fang Zhiyi began folding clothes.

"You can't bear to let me go, right? But you finally made it back, and it seems that pesky transmigrator is gone too. You should... hmm?"

Little Hei suddenly paused, confused. "Wait a minute, did you finish off that transmigrator? You're that fierce? Even without my help, you could..."

Fang Zhiyi's movements stopped.

He slowly turned his head. "Little Hei, is there anything you want to do?"

"Something I want to do? Eat more, and then just lie down... Why do you ask?" Little Hei looked at Fang Zhiyi's gaze, inexplicably feeling a bit creeped out.

"I'll help you."

"Huh?"
