Everyone has awakened, but I am the only mortal!

Only Luo Zheng and Zheng Yi witnessed this scene. Although they didn't hear what Hei Zi said, they noticed something was wrong. Hei Zi had secretly said something to Tian Ye.

While Su Bai was still pondering Hei Zi's words, the fight between Lao Zhou and Ma Jun had already ended.

Old Zhou, with two punches to the face and a bruised lip, walked back to Su Bai's side with a smug look on his face before complaining pitifully, "He bullied me."

Everyone: "..."

Looking at Ma Jun again, his face was swollen like a pig's head, blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, and he could barely open his eyes. Even his own mother probably wouldn't recognize him!

This isn't about Lao Zhou being bullied; it's clearly Ma Jun who got a severe beating.

Ma Jun was helped up by Hei Zi and Li Wei. He shook off their hands, spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with blood, but his eyes still glared fiercely at Su Bai.

His voice was hoarse and venomous: "What do you have to be so proud of? Do you think you're always right? Those two monsters you're protecting don't eat or talk, they're lifeless all day long. The reason we got into trouble might very well be their doing!"

The "two monsters" he was referring to were the father and son in the corner.

Su Bai didn't speak, but merely glanced at the father and son.

As Ma Jun finished speaking, the little boy who had been held in his father's arms suddenly raised his head slowly.

The little hand reached out to Li Wei, who was closest to them, her voice soft and sweet, yet carrying an inexplicable eeriness: "Uncle, here, have some."

Li Wei subconsciously looked down.

In a single glance, his pupils dilated instantly, his features contorted and distorted, his face contorted with utter terror, and a piercing scream instantly tore through the air: "A ghost...a ghost!!"

As he screamed, he lunged at Kuroko beside him like a madman, grabbing Kuroko's arm tightly with both hands, crying and babbling incoherently, "It's not your fault...it's not your fault! It's their fault! They killed you!"

Li Wei's unusual behavior startled everyone present.

Everyone turned to look at the father and son.

The father kept his head down, his hat covering most of his face, making it impossible to see his expression.

The little boy held a cookie in his hand, his face as pale as paper, his eyes full of confusion. He clearly did not understand why he had frightened Li Wei. His small body was slightly curled up, looking innocent and pitiful.

"Wake up!" Hei Zi shoved Li Wei away forcefully, his tone impatient. "Look carefully, where's the ghost?"

Li Wei was pushed away, then frantically lunged at Hei Zi and grabbed his arm. Helpless, Hei Zi could only push him away again and again.

After several attempts, Hei Zi finally lost his temper and shouted angrily, "Open your eyes and look carefully! He's just an ordinary kid!"

Hei Zi's anger temporarily intimidated Li Wei.

He didn't pounce again, but he didn't dare look back at the father and son either, as if there were some man-eating monster behind him. He just stiffly raised his head and glanced around aimlessly.

But upon scanning, another piercing scream, so intense it was almost distorted, rang out. His eyes rolled back, and he fainted instantly.

Li Wei was honest and timid by nature, and he was easily startled. At first, everyone just thought he was scared out of his wits and didn't think much of it, but his screams were painful to the ears.

But when they looked in the direction Li Wei had last looked, everyone's expression froze instantly, the color drained from their faces, and a chill ran from their feet to the top of their heads.

The body of Ma Jun's girlfriend, which had been lying on the ground in pieces, had vanished into thin air, leaving only a large patch of dark red blood on the ground, still sticky and wet.

The other male corpse, which was originally intact, now shriveled up like a deflated balloon, its skin wrinkling until only a complete, bloody human skin remained, lying flat on the ground, eerily gruesome.

No one knows where the body went, nor does anyone know how this human skin came to be.

The silently vanished corpses, the nauseating human skin—a suffocating fear gripped everyone once more.

After enduring a whole night and then causing such a commotion after the lights came on, everyone was exhausted, both physically and mentally. Even Su Bai felt a wave of weariness wash over him.

He ignored the human skin on the ground and the unconscious Li Wei, walked to the corner of the wall, sat down, closed his eyes, as if everything around him was irrelevant.

Old Zhou quickly followed, and just as he reached Su Bai's side, he heard Su Bai casually remind him, "Take a nap before the lights go out."

"Sleep...take a nap?!"

Old Zhou's eyes widened in disbelief, and his voice trembled.

They were trapped here for three days and three nights, terrified by the rule of "sleep sacrifice" and dared not close their eyes. Su Bai actually let them sleep?

The others were also stunned and froze on the spot, unable to believe their ears.

However, the haters were the first to react.

He glanced at Su Bai, who was resting with his eyes closed, and then at Li Wei, who had fainted to the side. He said to Ma Jun in a deep voice, "Drag him aside. Let's get some sleep while the lights are still on."

Hei Zi had already dragged Li Wei towards the wall, and Ma Jun followed.

After sitting down, Ma Jun glanced at Hei Zi, who had his eyes closed, and then at Luo Zheng and Zheng Yi, who had also sat back in the corner with their eyes closed. He clearly trusted Su Bai's judgment completely.

He pursed his lips, saying nothing, but his eyes darkened, revealing resentment and suspicion.

Old Zhou was so surprised that everyone listened to Su Bai and obediently prepared to go to sleep that his mouth was still agape.

Turning his head, he happened to meet the gaze of the little boy in the father and son pair.

The little boy's expression was blank, his black eyes were so dark that they showed no light or emotion, yet Old Zhou felt a cold sweat rise on his back and goosebumps all over his body.

That look in his eyes was not the look a child should have.

He muttered to himself, "What the hell?" When he looked more closely, the little boy had already snuggled back into his father's arms, only a small section of his pale neck showing. He was quiet and still, as if the eye contact he had just made was just Old Zhou's hallucination.

Old Zhou quietly tugged at Su Bai's sleeve, brought his mouth close to Su Bai's ear, and whispered, "That child... hasn't slept for three days, has he? The adults are almost collapsing from holding on, how come he's perfectly fine? He hasn't even yawned."

After waiting for a while, Su Bai still didn't respond.

Old Zhou gently nudged him, but heard a steady snoring sound.

Su Bai actually fell asleep!

Old Zhou stared blankly at Su Bai's peaceful sleeping face, inwardly screaming: Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! This guy is too carefree! How can he sleep so soundly in a place like this?!

On the other side, Luo Zheng and Zheng Yi leaned against the corner of the wall, talking in hushed tones that only the two of them could hear. Their expressions were solemn, and they were obviously pondering Su Bai's judgment and the rules of the otherworld. However, because of Su Bai's snoring, the two of them soon finished their conversation and closed their eyes.
