Yan Junze stood at the corner of the third floor, positioned above and behind these people, so they hadn’t noticed his presence yet.
The man with a gun holstered at his side approached the stairwell entrance and whispered with the two people guarding there. It was inaudible, but he seed to be making arrangents.
Before long, the gun-holstered man raised his head, turned around, and was about to look in Yan Junze’s direction.
Yan Junze imdiately withdrew his body, left the railing of the hallway, and hugged the wall to check both sides. To the right outside the sickroom, one door was open, while the one on the left was closed tight.
Listening carefully, faint sounds ca from the room with the open door.
Recalling the environnt of the Back-faced Woman’s room he had seen through shared vision last ti, Yan Junze quickly moved along the wall towards the open door.
He didn’t go in right away but poked his head inside for a look.
White short sleeves and shorts, a frail figure, bruised skin, the Back-faced Woman was standing in front of a row of dicine cabinets, facing the door.
That is to say, at this mont, her head turned away was examining the dicine bottles inside the cabinet.
“Back-faced Woman?” Yan Junze walked in and called out softly.
The Back-faced Woman silently turned around, her back facing him, with her face hidden beneath thick hair now facing Yan Junze, finally seeing the person at the door.
Clearly surprised and abrupt, she reached out to Yan Junze, who walked over and took her cold hand.
“Ke… Ke…” the Back-faced Woman began, her voice unsteady.
In the room to the right, a rapid scurrying sound arose, and monts later, the familiar figure in a red dress with ssy hair–the little one from next door, Ke’er–crawled towards the doorway, looking up.
The mont her gaze t Yan Junze’s, Ke’er’s form visibly jolted, tilting her head and widening her eyes, trying to ascertain if the person before her was indeed him.
“Eh?”
“Ke’er!” Yan Junze couldn’t help but laugh.
It was a joyous laugh that welled up from the bottom of his heart, spontaneous, beyond his control at the mont—his heart brimming with indescribable happiness.
The next second, Ke’er finally reacted, her little face blooming like a flower, legs springing, “bam!” she leaped from the doorway straight into Yan Junze’s arms.
Yan Junze quickly caught her, euphorically holding Ke’er close, her grubby hair rubbing against his face, full of affection.
While hugging and rubbing against Yan Junze’s cheek, Ke’er let out a dreamy murmur: “Ya ya ya ya…”
Yan Junze knew well that at this ti, “ya” was not a sound of anger or rage; Ke’er also said “ya” when happy, just in a tone and cadence wholly different from that of angry “ya.”
Holding Ke’er, Yan Junze felt an overwhelming sense of bliss.
However, after no more than a dozen seconds, he forcefully suppressed the excitent in his heart, turned his head to the Back-faced Woman, and said, “This is not a good place to linger. So masked people have co downstairs, and they seem to an you harm.”
The Back-faced Woman was taken aback.
Yan Junze continued, “They’re well-prepared. We need to leave this place first.”
Ke’er, who had heard his words, suddenly leaped from his arms to the ground, scampered into the neighboring room, and quickly returned clutching sothing in her hands.
Yan Junze looked down to see a heart, the sa one he had seen Ke’er holding in his shared vision.
In the quiet room, the heart’s thumping could be heard, rhythmically beating, quite peculiar.
“There’s no ti left, we need to get out of here!”
Yan Junze didn’t have ti to inquire about the origin of the heart or why Ke’er insisted on holding it. He bent down again, picked up Ke’er, and said to the Back-faced Woman, “They will probably search the second floor soon. We can’t go down directly.”
He paused and then pointed upward, “Let’s head to the rooftop.”
With the current situation, Yan Junze had many questions, but ti was pressing. If the Back-faced Woman and Ke’er were caught, they would face the annihilation he had foreseen.
So, even though Yan Junze wanted to know the reasons, he had to take care of the imdiate crisis first.
The person and two strangenesses quickly left the room. Yan Junze instructed the Back-faced Woman to follow along the wall with him quietly to avoid making noise.
The Back-faced Woman naturally made no sound when she walked. Ke’er’s crawling was noisy, but with Yan Junze holding her, the concern now was his own footsteps.
As they moved, Yan Junze whispered to the Back-faced Woman, “I’ll tell you later why I am here, but in a mont, another will activate the Semi-Spirit Body. You will definitely sense it then. Just rember, when you share vision with him, don’t let him see , but do let him see the danger you are currently in.”
Worried the Back-faced Woman might not understand, Yan Junze added, “I have an ability that allows to appear in two places at once. The current is trying to save you, but the other isn’t aware. Just don’t let him know I exist. However, you must let him see those people in brown uniforms.”
Though the Back-faced Woman’s throat was severely damaged, it wasn’t that she couldn’t speak; it was hard to produce a complete voice.
Upon hearing Yan Junze’s words, she visibly showed shock and indeed seed puzzled, but there was no ti for questions now.
