Chapter 29 Final Showdown
The feeling of powerlessness overwhelmed me instantly.
I don't even have the thought of escaping. No matter what I do now, it's useless. All my actions are under Uncle Zhao's control. No matter how hard I struggle, I can't escape the fate of death in the end.
No, he didn't seem to have any intention of killing me. Otherwise, he didn't need to call the police, he could just kill me without leaving any trace.
He just wanted to play me to death, like a cat that caught a mouse.
I stood up staggeringly.
I can't just let go. The person in front of me is my enemy, and he also tempted me to kill the people closest to me, and made me bear the charge of a murderer. How could I let him go so easily!?
I picked up the bloody knife on the ground and walked towards him unsteadily.
There was no one in the Internet cafe. They probably all ran away while I was killing people. Even the boss actually left the Internet cafe alone, leaving only the two of us staring at each other.
There is no one here now, and the police have not come. If I can destroy his body and then take the opportunity to escape from this Internet cafe, maybe I still have a chance to escape.
There was no body nearby for him to change into. If he had changed his body and came to chase me again, I might have escaped long ago. But looking at the proud expression on his face, he didn't seem to be aware of this loophole.
Maybe he had expected that I had no fighting spirit and was negligent.
This negligence of his is my only hope. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge within ten years. Now, the situation is special. Let’s first think about how to escape. Then we can come to settle accounts with him in the future.
I stood crookedly on the spot, quietly looking at the strange man with a strange smile on his face, secretly gathering strength.
However, when I was about to rush forward to fight him, a woman's figure suddenly appeared behind him. I couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
When I saw her face clearly, my whole body froze instantly, my hands trembled uncontrollably, and the knife I was holding fell to the ground with a clear "clang" sound.
That woman is Xiaoyan.
Her whole body was erratic, as if someone had suspended her in the air, like a ghost, with no color on her face.
Her body blocked behind Uncle Zhao, blocking my way.
Xiaoyan still refuses to let me go? I looked at the fierce light in her eyes, and my heart instantly became cold.
"Go to hell, go to hell, go to hell!!" Xiaoyan suddenly started roaring loudly at me, her face was ashen, and she didn't have any human breath at all.
"You...why..." At this moment, I really lost all my fighting spirit. Even my mouth started to tremble and I couldn't speak clearly. The two final bosses in front of me were blocking my way, and my escape plan was completely ruined.
It turned out that Uncle Zhao had never been careless at all. Now all my actions are still firmly in his hands. I glared at Uncle Zhao bitterly, my eyes full of unwillingness and resentment.
However, now Uncle Zhao actually has the same fearful expression on his face.
What's going on? Did Uncle Zhao make a mistake somewhere? Where is it? Is there a gap that can be exploited?
I looked anxiously at Xiaoyan's livid face and Uncle Zhao's frightened expression, but I couldn't find any flaws in them.
Suddenly, Xiaoyan raised her arms and made an exaggerated wave. Suddenly, there was a crowd of people outside the door. I saw at least hundreds of people, and they gathered towards the door in the blink of an eye.
Among these people, I saw familiar faces:
Mom, grandma, sister, Hu Die, Lin Xiong...
They all rushed towards me like zombies. I fell to the ground with a "plop" and watched the surging crowd in front of me. I was horrified and speechless.
Are they all being manipulated by Uncle Zhao? Will I still die in their hands in the end?
I was so scared that I didn't dare to move. I could only stare wide-eyed and watch them approach me step by step.
They really pounced.
However, their target didn't seem to be me. A flood of people kept pouring into this small Internet cafe. They came with such force that they knocked Uncle Zhao down in an instant.
"Ah!! Don't come here!!" Uncle Zhao was overwhelmed by them, but he couldn't push away the hill-like crowd, so he could only roar heartbreakingly.
I stared blankly at the scene in front of me, and my body suddenly froze. I just stayed in place, unable to move.
In the crowd, I suddenly saw Xiaoyan's figure.
She seemed to have noticed my gaze, turned around, smiled and said to me: "It's okay. These are the spirits that were discarded by my father after his experiment failed. Now we are going to take him with us. From now on,
You should live well alone."
At this time, I found that there was no blood on her face before, it was soft and tender, and she was back to the Xiaoyan I knew before. The gentle, kind, and considerate Xiaoyan.
"Xiaoyan!!" I suddenly realized something and rushed towards her desperately. I knew that Xiaoyan was already dead. Or maybe she wasn't dead yet, but she was about to die now. I just wanted to be there before her death.
Before dying, feel the temperature of her body again.
If possible, I really want to go with her.
But, it's too late.
When I was about to rush in front of Xiaoyan, the spirits pressing on Uncle Zhao's body suddenly burst out with an extremely dazzling light, and I couldn't help but close my eyes.
At that moment, I saw the slightly blurred and sad expression on Xiaoyan's face. Her lips moved slightly, and I could only barely hear her gradually weaker voice:
"As time goes by, love never ends..."
…
When I opened my eyes again, my eyes were completely blank.
There is nothing left.
Xiaoyan is also missing.
I'm left alone.
Big drops of tears kept flowing from my eyes. I wanted to cry loudly, but my throat seemed to be choked by something. No matter how much the tears flowed, I just couldn't cry.
The Internet cafe around me was eerily quiet.
