4367 The Other Side 336
“If we don’t go out and take a look, we’re as good as not making any progress.” Gong Fan took a deep breath and exhaled a puff of turbid air. He sighed helplessly. “There’s nothing I can do now. I can only take things one step at a ti. The best I can do is be more vigilant.”
Youyou, however, still had his concerns. “Let’s not talk about you just yet, would the two of us even be a match for that man?”
Gong Fan fell silent for a mont at that. Then, he said solemnly, “Don’t worry, I will ensure you’re well-protected, even if at the cost of my life!”
Youyou stared at him blankly for a mont, his expression grave and stern.
“Are you kidding? At the end of the day, you’re the one who needs protecting.”
“…?” Gong Fan was stunned. Did Youyou say he wanted to protect him? Wasn’t Youyou the one who should be protected?
“I’ll be fine. Don’t you worry.” Youyou was worried that Shanshan would hear him. Even if he didn’t dislike the girl, he was more or less wary. “I’m the primary personality. No matter what I encounter here, I’m in no danger in reality. But you’re different. If you die here, that ans you’re gone forever in reality!” Despite himself, Youyou grew agitated. He took a step forward and gripped Gong Fan’s shoulder tightly. “I don’t want you to disappear!” he said nervously.
Gong Fan was speechless.
Behind him, a voice suddenly spoke. “Do you guys want to get out?”
The two little lads turned around in unison and saw that Shanshan had quietly drifted to their side like a ghost!
“Are you guys hiding from that man?”
“You know about him?” Youyou paled and could not hide his surprise.
Shanshan’s expression changed at the ntion of the man. She was clearly fearful.
“I… that man. He’s scary. I’m afraid of him, too. That’s why I’m hiding here. I’m afraid to go anywhere.”
Youyou saw that Shanshan seed to understand sothing and imdiately probed, “Who is he?”
However, what she said disappointed him.
Shanshan shook her head helplessly. “I don’t know him. I don’t know where he cos from, what he does for a living, or who he is. But there’s sothing murderous about him. I don’t dare to go near him. He patrols this place every day, just like a sanctioner. He’s so powerful. I don’t know if he’ll… hurt . That’s why I’ve been afraid to go out.”
Youyou’s mind was suddenly in turmoil.
Who exactly was this man? Could it be the sanctioner Romanka had been talking about? However, logically speaking, shouldn’t he or Gong Fan take the role of the sanctioner?
There were too many unknowns in this world.
“But if you want to leave this place, I know there’s a secret way out of this hospital. You don’t have to go through the gate. You can leave via the winding path in the back garden. That’s the back entrance to the hospital. It’s always unlocked.”
Youyou’s interest was piqued. “Do you know where it is?”
“I know the way. I can take you there!”
When Gong Fan heard this, he imdiately stopped her. “I’m sorry, we can’t take you away.”
When Shanshan heard this, her bright eyes dimd. “Why? Are you going to abandon ?”
Abandon?
Youyou questioned her. “Haven’t you always been here?”
“I don’t want to stay here. It’s too depressing.”
