Chapter 99 Replacement

Why are you so cruel?

The girl covered her eyes, her voice leaking through her fingers: "Those corpses are real, they're really scary!"

After she finished speaking, she paused and added, "Respect for the dead is a basic moral principle."

Ji Bai looked at her incredulously: "What are you worried about? This isn't a society governed by law anymore."

She had no choice but to lower her head and say bluntly, "I dare not."

The alter ego's words suddenly echoed in Ji Bai's mind. He stared at her and suddenly said, "You have to dare, even if you don't dare."

"How could you say such cruel things..." the girl looked at him in disbelief.

Ji Bai paused for a moment, then decided to reason with her: "You like science, and science emphasizes logic, doesn't it?"

The girl nodded without hesitation.

Ji Bai clasped his hands together and said firmly, "Yes, comparing similar types of people, isn't it also a kind of logic for good people to do good deeds and bad people to do bad deeds?"

The girl swallowed hard. Although she didn't understand what Ji Bai was doing, she still nodded honestly.

The next second, Ji Bai's face turned stern, and taking advantage of his height, he grabbed her by the back of the neck.

"I'm a bad person, and bad people do bad things. Go and show me the corpse right now."

The person in front of them had no regard for human rights and tied the person next to the corpse, covering the back of the person's neck with their hand, and even reaching out to lift her eyelids with their fingers.

The girl suddenly realized that she had been tricked.

Ji Bai didn't miss a single change in her expression. He wasn't good at letting go of his suspicions, and his vigilance had never wavered.

As he watched the girl's face gradually turn pale, he loosened his grip on her fingers and silently counted down the seconds in his mind.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

The girl did not resist; she was still very scared. She pursed her lips, gritted her teeth, and swallowed hard. Her dark, grape-like eyes flashed with many emotions.

After a while, the girl turned to him and said, "No."

"Nothing?"

"Neither your face nor the faces of those who traveled with you." She paused, then added, "Neither yours nor the faces of those who traveled with you."

Ji Bai suddenly released her hand and rubbed the back of her neck: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have treated you like that."

The girl's brows furrowed slowly. Sui An wasn't angry; she was still puzzled and asked, "Why are you doing this?"

Ji Bai pursed his lips and said, "Your alternate personality told me you're afraid to accept these things, and I want to verify it."

"Huh?" she asked instinctively, puzzled. "Why?"

"Because I don't want her to replace you."

Ji Bai lowered his eyes slightly, the veins on the back of his hand bulging. He suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, I don't really believe she's a so-called alternate personality. I think she wants to completely erase your existence, and she seems to hate me a lot, so I want to strike first."

"Strike first, gain the upper hand?"

The girl covered her head with her hand, as if some painful seed was sprouting inside. She hit it a few times with the back of her hand and subconsciously said, "...I don't know, maybe she didn't mean any harm."

"We bad guys have radar on our own kind."

Ji Bai narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If I say she has it, she definitely has it."

"Yeah?"

The girl seemed lost in thought. "Actually, I'm a very incompetent examiner. I know in my heart that she did a lot of things for me. You don't really need to worry about me..."

Ji Bai shook his head.

"No, I'm actually managing myself."

He said, "I'm leaving this place."
