Chapter 42): She’s Hungry
The heat surged uncontrollably in his body, and he could feel his heartbeat beating erratically. He could feel his limbs and organs melting. All he could do was curl up in a foetal position.
Argh Mmph
When the girl in his dream said that there are a few days in a month, did she mean that this transformation process couldnt be suppressed by any means?
He could feel his heart drop beyond the pain; if he didnt leave the hospital today, the consequences would be disastrous.
He could feel his consciousness enter a trance, and he didnt know what was real anymore.
He was the living embodiment of a bonfire, and his soul and body were firewood.
His vision was soon shrouded in flames, and soon the flames overtook his vision.
Then
He didnt know how long it had been, but soon she felt a comforting cold wash over her.
A cloud of white smoke emitted from her body as the flames were being extinguished, and the pain went with the flames. As she opened her eyes, she saw her slender, pristine hands that had dug into the ground before her.
She took a deep breath and collapsed on the ground.
When the evening wind blew, it was like a gentle hand that caressed her body. Feeling the coolness on her body, her pupils shrank.
F*ck!
She immediately crossed her legs and shielded her chest; her clothes had been burnt to ash, and her mobile phone had been reduced to lava.
My phone! I just bought that!
She couldnt help but curse in her heart. She bought that phone after serious consideration and began to curse this ability of hers. However, after thinking about how this ability was the thing that saved her life, she stopped the complaints in her heart.
Yibei stood up and bid farewell to her mobile phone, leaving the rooftop.
She walked down the stairwell and hid in the shadows.
The stairwell was fully dark, and since it was late, the possibility of meeting other people was very low.
She thought about taking the elevator, but if she were to meet someone in her naked state, it would be incredibly awkward! At that point, the entire apartment might explode (literally)!
Due to humankinds inherent fear of the dark, nobody would ever take the staircase. The motion-sensor lights in the stairwell were rarely repaired, so it was shrouded in darkness.
The stairwell had a strange, stale smell. Occasionally, the lights would flicker. Within the stairwell, there would be piles of various items scattered across the bases of the stairwell.
Why do I feel so scared? Even if something pops out, I can
Christ!
Yibei leapt backwards upon seeing a human figure staring her down. Upon closer inspection, it was simply an inflatable sex doll.
She may look calm on the surface, but her long, glowing scarlet hair betrays the panic in her heart. Her petite hands gripped the metal handrail, unknowingly making it melt.
The stairs before her were submerged in darkness, and she plunged into them.
There seemed to be something surging and dashing around in the dark. A sense of hunger came over her like a wave, and she couldnt help but swallow her saliva.
Why am I hungry?
She tried ignoring it, but the hunger pangs soon started stabbing at her as if she hadnt eaten for several days. Her brain was overwhelmed by hunger, and her only thought was to eat.
In Yibeis apartment, in the darkness, several apparitions gathered at the coffee table.
Did you feel that? I feel unsafe, the wig whispered.
Youre right, the pair of false teeth sighed. If we leave here, where do we go? Im afraid we dont have much of a choice.
Or, lets kill him! The eyeball leapt up and down. Humans like to take a bath, so lets ambush him in the shower!
Humans, one of them emphasised. He is no longer human. If he doesnt die, were the ones who will die instead.
Then, what should we do? Do we just let him do what he pleases? I cant accept this!
I still think we should move.
Knock knock!
Open the door, please, a girl groaned outside.
Is that him? the figures whispered amongst themselves.
Come on, open the door! I know all of you are inside! The girl wailed again, and a wave of fiery energy washed over the entire room.
The figures looked at each other and dashed towards their hiding spots.
Black shadows flew across the room, the coat crumpled into a ball being pushed by the eyeballs, and the teeth skittered across the floor.
The coat slammed into a door.
Knock, knock, knock!
The coat struggled to get up. When it turned around, it found that the other apparitions had long since disappeared.
Come on, I heard you inside! Please open the door!
The coat violently trembled as it crept towards the door. Its sleeves were tremblingly wrapped around the doorknob, twisting slowly.
Click!
The door was swiftly pushed open by someone outside, and then a petite figure with fiery, scarlet hair rushed in and rushed towards the refrigerator.
Is she him? Ive been dead for many years, but this is the first time Ive seen something like this, the false teeth whispered.
This is her true form, the wig gulped as Yibei started devouring random things in her fridge. Look at how hungry she is!
As she continued devouring the food, a wave of nausea washed over her, and she retched all of the food she had eaten.
Ack!
The strong hunger that invaded her soul seemed to hunger for something else. The scent of ordinary human food made her sick to her stomach.
She could smell the other figures in her apartment. They smelled damp, but her instinct clawed at her brain.
These figures can relieve her hunger. These things can save her.
Yibei turned around, staring at the figures hiding spot.
W-what do we do? the fake teeth trembled.
Suddenly, the eyeballs yelled, What are you doing? Run! Shes going to eat us!
With their yelling, the figures started to dash around the room.
