There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game

Chapter 298 The Patient

Xu Shuo thought about killing the boy, but in the moment he was distracted, his thoughts suddenly hazed over, and the fruit knife in his hand subconsciously pointed toward himself.

However, he quickly came to his senses, the blurry smile on the boy's face was eerie and terrifying.

He didn't hold much intent to kill, for in his understanding, killing was nothing out of the ordinary anymore.

From his past behavior in the scripts, one could tell that this man didn't have a solid set of principles; everything he did was simply to satisfy his own fleeting moods.

As long as he wanted to, anything was permissible.

The vaguely familiar yet strange face gradually overlapped with the hospital setting, and Xu Shuo suddenly realized something, his dark eyes fixed intently on the boy: "Little Kun, it seems your illness hasn't been cured yet?"

Luo Kun suddenly made a weird face and said with a creepy smile, "So Doctor Chu hasn't given up on treating me, how touching. But what can I do, right now I only feel like killing you to see what that's like. Don't worry, I'll only kill you once."

As he spoke, his green eyes glowed with impatience, and the building debris around them began to peel away, barely noticeable in the violent storm that surrounded them.

The mechanical fragments, made of unknown materials, gradually morphed into sharp steel bars, several of which were already aimed at the young man.

Molecular reconstruction, that was this man's ability.

As it turned out, sometimes the powers that players brought with them weren't as useful as the abilities given to them in the scripts.

But such things could usually catch you off guard.

Xu Shuo remained crouching on the ground, making no move to oppose what was happening; he merely stared intently at the boy in front of him, his emotions more intense than he could control—this was an excitement he couldn't suppress!

—He didn't argue!

Xu Shuo's mouth curled into a smile, which gradually grew wider until it became almost grotesque!

He knew this state of excitement was not quite right.

But he didn't stop it, because in this state, his thinking was even clearer and more rational!

He struggled to suppress his smile, his twisted face showing a sickly madness as he said gently, "Little Kun, put your hand on your neck."

No sooner had the words been spoken than the steel bars hanging in the air poised to strike suddenly halted!

The boy in front of him, out of control, lifted his hand and, to his own shock, clutched it tightly around his neck.

Xu Shuo's smile widened: "Good boy, how about puncturing it a bit more?"

The boy's fingernails were not sharp, but they dug into the tender skin forcefully, quickly turning pinch marks from deep red to purplish bruises, and then to bright red blood threads.

The skin was punctured, and thin streams of blood trickled through the fingers from between his neck.

Luo Kun's eyes, like emeralds, widened as he stared ferociously at the seemingly gentle smiling young man in front of him; his right hand trembled violently as if struggling against his own thoughts.

The steel bars in the air trembled under the influence of mind reading, warping into strange shapes and tearing into bizarre substances, much like Luo Kun's own psyche.

Perhaps upon realizing he could not resist the command, a stiff smile suddenly spread across the boy's fierce features, creating an eerie sight on his contorted face.

He was still able to smile at such a time.

Xu Shuo simply watched him calmly, or so he believed he was calm.

"Put a bit more effort into it, didn't you have your meal?" he asked gently.

"...!"

Luo Kun felt as if the strings in his mind had snapped, and his fingers pierced deeper into his neck, the blood flowing freely from his fingertips uncontrollably!

This slow process was undoubtedly cruel and painful, yet Luo Kun's face bore no expression of agony; instead, he just glared venomously at the man before him, his gaze never wavering, his eyes fierce and brutal, as if engraving this face deeply into his memory!

If looks could kill... Xu Shuo would have already gouged out his eyes.

Crack, crack, crack—

The building beneath them suddenly shook violently, and the floor they stood on began to break apart, cracks spreading in every direction.

Crack!

The entire rooftop broke apart, sending both men plunging uncontrollably downwards as the hundred-story building continued to disintegrate slowly, countless cracks covering the walls!

Luo Kun knelt on the chaotic ground; as he used his ability, his fingers had already plunged deep into his neck, the striking crimson of his blood staining his collar as it dripped down.

Xu Shuo staggered slightly, calmly watching as the building began to crumble.

```

He looked again at Luo Kun, who was still trembling and struggling, and chuckled softly, "Don't worry, I'll only kill you once, as long as you're dead."

Luo Kun suddenly raised his head, a hint of blood flashing through his dark green eyes, and a twisted smile also appeared on his face, mad and cruel!

The collapsing building ceased its disintegration, and the next moment, Xu Shuo's thoughts became hazy.

Mind Control, huh...

Xu Shuo shook his head, reaching up to hold his forehead, but before he even realized, his hand unconsciously placed a fruit knife against his throat.

"Hehe..." Luo Kun laughed weirdly.

As the fruit knife scraped the skin, Xu Shuo quickly put down the knife. Luo Kun's Mind Control wasn't intense, but it easily triggered subconscious reactions in people.

The subconscious is often very difficult to notice.

Right now, two emotions were already fighting in his head, and at this time, a third thought intruded. Xu Shuo frowned slightly, feeling a sting in his brain.

And yet, his subconscious picked up the fruit knife again, this time forcefully pressing it against his neck!

"Uh..."

While Luo Kun was distracted, Xu Shuo's fingers had dug deep into the flesh, almost half a finger in.

The flesh and blood on both sides of his neck were nearly scratched raw, the skin twisted and turned inside out, more and more blood gushed from the wound, his fingertips had pierced the tendons, and he could even feel his own throat cartilage.

Xu Shuo's thoughts were somewhat blurred, as he struggled to suppress the subconscious of his brain, the fruit knife pressing against his neck had already drawn a line of blood.

Under the raging storm around them, atop the precarious building, both men were resisting each other's control, both fighting against their own uncontrollable thoughts.

Luo Kun was still grinning, his expression filled with vicious madness, his gaze never leaving the young man's figure.

In this quiet battle, either both would be killed by themselves, or one would give up control, and both would be liberated!

Professor Li himself was a powerful Psychic with the ability for Mind Transmission, so it would be easy for him to get rid of Luo Kun's mental suggestion, as long as he reverted to his role as Professor Li, but—

The "Doctor's" special skill required the Chen Chu Character Card, and if he exited the character card, this rule would no longer apply.

If the two Psychics were to measure their strength, they probably wouldn't be able to determine a winner in a short time!

Xu Shuo just wanted to finish off Luo Kun as soon as possible!

He glared darkly at the boy across from him, in the other's still arrogant and presumptuous smile, he gripped the fruit knife tightly, and then without hesitation, he thrust it forcefully into his own thigh!

Hisss—A line of blood sprayed out as he pulled out the fruit knife, the crimson blood instantly staining his hanging white coat.

Xu Shuo staggered to his feet, walking through the debris towards Luo Kun, who lay not far away.

Suddenly, his thoughts became hazy again, and with a sudden motion, Xu Shuo raised his hand and without hesitation made a cut on his left arm. This was very effective indeed, his thoughts were now crystal clear!

Kill this guy!

Kill him!

By the time Xu Shuo approached the boy, he could already be described as battered and bloodied, the fresh red blood making his already unclean white coat even more disheveled.

Luo Kun was still struggling for life, staring at the person in front of him, he laughed sinisterly.

The nearby mental suggestion was extremely strong, and only when Xu Shuo was about to cut his own throat with the fruit knife did he react, but the next moment, he violently flipped the knife and stabbed fiercely towards the young man across from him!

Hisss!

The sharp tip of the knife pierced through the other hand that Luo Kun had raised in defense.

Xu Shuo taunted with a raised eyebrow, "What's the matter, weren't you pretty resigned to death at the hospital? When did you become such a coward? Little Kun, don't be so naughty."

He leisurely pulled out the fruit knife, its smooth blade still without a trace of blood, reflecting a cold light.

Luo Kun couldn't speak anymore, not knowing how badly his throat was injured, he had nearly gouged it raw, the injury turning the flesh inside out looked horrific.

But having gotten this far and not died was already something, considering he seemed to still be quite spirited, those eyes as if brewing a storm.

With the next cut, Xu Shuo finally pierced through the throat along with the back of the hand that was clutching it!
