The sharp knife smoothly pierced through.
Crimson blood flowed down the blade.
At the moment the knife pierced his waist, accompanied by Xu Nian’s somewhat crazed laughter, he suddenly felt his brain wrapped in endless mockery, as blank as paste.
Feeling a sharp pain, he suddenly felt his limbs weaken, and his legs gave way.
For a moment, he couldn’t make any resistance at all.
“Damn it!”
Xu Nian didn’t get greedy.
Taking advantage of the other party’s dazed state for some unknown reason, after pulling the knife out of his body, she immediately rushed into the corner of the corridor.
The two bodyguards were still in a daze, they never expected that such a delicate girl would suddenly turn violent.
And so quickly and accurately.
“Chase her!”
Hearing the order, one of the bodyguards chased after her like an arrow, leaving only one bodyguard behind, still somewhat at a loss.
“President, are you alright?”
“What are you still standing here for! You don’t move unless I tell you to, is that it! Don’t you hurry up and chase after her! I’ll make her pay!”
His thoughts returned, and the blank state of his brain finally improved somewhat. He clutched his injured waist.
However, soon, his wound gradually healed under the effect of a mysterious force.
But the pain still gnawed at him, making him temporarily unable to move, and causing him to sweat profusely.
That stab, it was really ruthless.
A sudden attack, caught him off guard.
If it had been an ordinary person, he would have died from blood loss before the doctor arrived.
Damn it!!!
In this entire city, how could anyone dare to attack him so blatantly.
No matter who it was, he would definitely make the other party pay!
At this time, Xu Nian was running wildly in the corridor, but with her physique, how could she outrun two professionally trained burly men.
The knife was prepared beforehand and put into her invisible cloth bag, mainly for self-defense.
Now, in hindsight, she realized what she had done.
She just heard the other party constantly calling out her Qingya, and on a whim, she just…
“Damn it, what to do, what to do? If I get caught, I’m definitely done for.”
Thinking about the fourth simulation, she was thrown into prison just for having a slightly bad attitude.
Now she had stabbed him, wouldn’t he have her drawn and quartered?
She had indeed prepared an escape plan, but the two bodyguards were chasing too closely, she had no chance to use it.
What to do, what to do?
Fighting back was definitely impossible, she had no combat ability at all.
Then…
Xu Nian’s gaze kept falling on the reward from the fifth simulation.
[A True Gaze of a Fluxbeast]
The gaze of a Fluxbeast?
Did she really have to use it?
Would it cause a commotion?
If she used it, would there be any unexpected consequences?
Like she would die in an extremely bizarre state?
Or cause a disaster that endangered others.
Heh.
Anyway, the situation couldn’t be worse than it was now, could it?
If this Fluxbeast attacked that person surnamed Lin, the other party would definitely be held back, and in the entanglement between the two, the Fluxbeast might not even have the opportunity to start a crisis, so it might not be so dangerous after all.
[Reward is being distributed…]
Instantly, Xu Nian felt a chilling gaze focused on her.
It was as if someone was holding a piece of glass and constantly scratching it near her ear with a cat’s paw.
“Hehehe~”
Crazy laughter that didn’t belong to her instantly filled her brain.
In a daze, Xu Nian fell to the ground.
And the two bodyguards behind her, who were about to grab Xu Nian, also fell down due to the sudden laughter.
Suddenly, Xu Nian realized that her memories began to constantly rewind in her mind, all the happy things she had ever experienced began to replay in her mind.
Those were all her sweet moments from birth to the present.
They were very short, but recently they had become longer.
Causing her to constantly raise the corners of her mouth.
But gradually, her mind no longer replayed those things that were beautiful just to look at.
The memories in her mind rushed out one after another.
It was her studying hard before she came to this world, and being starved for a whole day because she didn’t rank at the top due to a temporary setback in her academic performance.
It was her, before she came to this world, somehow provoking the school bully, being blocked in the toilet and beaten up and robbed of all her money.
It was her, before she came to this world, finally winning an important performance opportunity after hard work, but being robbed of it by others based on their status.
It was her, before she came to this world, dating a girlfriend, economizing to please the other party, maintaining a pure love, but the other party just used her as an ATM and dumped her casually after getting tired of her.
It was her…
“You can’t even do this little thing well, what else can you do? We work so hard to feed you and clothe you, and this is how you repay us? Studying hard is the only thing you need to do, can’t you even do that well?
What are you going to do in the future if you don’t score higher? We’re doing this for your own good.”
“You useless thing, I feel uncomfortable just looking at you, give me some face, you have to give me protection money every week, otherwise I’ll beat you every time I see you, did you hear that, you waste.”
“Opportunities, opportunities, there are always opportunities, young people don’t be anxious, it’s not your turn this time, then you can go next time, Miss Chen really needs this opportunity, can’t you show some gentlemanliness? What? You said when is next time? Next year, maybe.”
“Heh, you ask what our relationship counts for? Count yourself unlucky, you didn’t really think I would be interested in you, did you?
To tell you the truth, from the beginning, I had the intention of playing with you, Young Master Wang is much richer than you, it’s really funny, you haven’t even touched my hand, let’s break up peacefully.”
“…”
Disordered voices began to fill her brain.
Washing over her again and again.
Xu Nian only felt her brain gradually swell.
Clearly, these were all things she had experienced, why… why, couldn’t she help but want to laugh?
“Hahaha!”
Xu Nian knelt on the carpet, clutching her head in pain, her laughter began to synchronize with the voices filling her brain.
She didn’t know how long it had been, but Xu Nian struggled to get up from the carpet and stumbled into another corner, disappearing from everyone’s sight.
As for the two bodyguards who were chasing Xu Nian.
The crazy laughter also broke into their minds.
However, this laughter didn’t evoke the heavy memories in their hearts.
Their faces were filled with sweet smiles.
“Damn it, why is there a Fluxbeast here?”
At this time, the man who had just been stabbed by Xu Nian arrived late.
He had finally regained some strength, and after chasing after her, he found that there was a Fluxbeast in this hotel.
He immediately thought of Xu Nian, because Xu Nian had asked her if she was being targeted by a Fluxbeast.
And his answer was no.
In addition, the knife just now was clearly unusual.
“A Joybeast?”
In his opinion, the reason why Xu Nian stabbed him for no reason might have been clear.
He snorted coldly, and a mysterious force penetrated into the space.
Then, he heard a shrill bird cry.
With that, the laughter gradually subsided until it disappeared.
Strange.
He murmured in doubt.
This Fluxbeast wasn’t strong.
Perhaps, it was ridiculously weak.
Otherwise, even if it was a Joybeast, it shouldn’t have been killed by him so easily.
But why was it that such a Joybeast was able to escape his perception and appear here silently?
He didn’t think too much about it, but instead focused his attention on the girl who had just stabbed him.
Damn it, even if there might be a reason, this stab couldn’t be written off like that.
He kicked the two bodyguards lying on the ground: “You two, hurry up and get up.”
But the aftereffects of the Joybeast weren’t so easy to eliminate, the two bodyguards were still lying on the ground, groggy.
The influence of Fluxbeasts wasn’t so easy to eliminate.
After all, it was the power of the mind, belonging to a mental attack.
“Which way did she run?”
One of the bodyguards pointed in a direction.
He didn’t care about the two bodyguards anymore and quickly chased after that direction.
But he didn’t see anyone, but he happened to meet a white fox girl who had just come out of the bathroom.

Considering how crazy she is and how often she’s been laughing up to this point, it seems like she’s been infected by the joy beast for awhile now.
