No strange things are allowed to evolve!

Although it was very close, Jiang Shu didn't dare to ride a bicycle or take the subway; instead, she took a taxi.

It's always better to influence only the driver than to let your charm influence many people.

But while the idea was grand, the reality was far from it.

Before I even left the residential area, I could already see some signs of trouble.

Even though she was wrapped up like a doll being secretly shipped, she still attracted the attention of many people in the neighborhood.

As it turned out, the minister's method was useful, but not very effective.

At first, Jiang Shudu only attracted the secret glances of some people walking on the path.

However, if you want to leave the community, you will inevitably have to pass by them.

Getting too close will cause problems.

Many people who were originally coming back from outside the community and planning to go home suddenly changed direction and followed Jiang Shu after passing by him, as if bewitched.

Seeing that something was wrong, Jiang Shu quickened his pace.

But the people behind him quickened their pace, and what was worse, as more and more people followed him, those walking on other paths further away, even those in the fitness area, and those residents who were playing ping-pong or badminton all noticed him.

And once you start looking, you'll stay looking for a lifetime.

Jiang Shu started jogging.

Then those few people, a dozen people, dozens of people, more and more people started running.

At the entrance of the residential compound.

Two patrolling police officers were resting in front of a convenience store, smoking and drinking a small bottle of sweetened water.

One of them suddenly heard something and looked around.

Where is the military parade taking place?

Another person also heard the noise: "It really is, a clanging sound, but it doesn't sound like a military parade. The footsteps are very chaotic, like a marathon."

"marathon?"

It was at this moment.

Whoosh!

A person wrapped up like a rice dumpling flashed past them, bypassing the access control and flying over.

He sprinted across the pedestrian crossing at the entrance of the residential area and ran towards a ride-hailing car parked on the side of the road with its hazard lights flashing.

Instead of opening the car door, he flew in through the open window.

Then, the car started.

The two police officers were dumbfounded by the fluid movements.

"Wow, Tony Leung from Lust, Caution?"

Just as they were at a loss, they suddenly heard countless hissing sounds coming from inside the community.

"Don't run away! How can I live without you?!"

"Wait for me!"

"Take me with you too!!"

"Hehehehehahahaha!!"

The two security guards turned around abruptly and saw hundreds of dark figures rushing towards the gate of the residential area like madmen.

Among them were many people with distorted expressions, mouths agape, spitting as they spoke.

Many people fell, but as if they felt no pain at all, they got up and continued sprinting.

At first glance, they look like a group of fans chasing after celebrities, but upon closer inspection, something doesn't seem right.

Stanning celebrities isn't that crazy.

"What...what's going on..." the two police officers said in disbelief.

One of them immediately called the police.

"The Walking Dead, no, Train to Busan, no, World War Z is here!"

the other side.

Jiang Shu thought the farce was over after getting into a ride-hailing car.

He patted his chest and kept breathing heavily.

It wasn't that he was tired from running such a long distance; that's nothing for him now that he's at a speed of 30 km/h.

He was frightened.

He never imagined that ordinary people would be affected by such a terrifying impact.

It's practically like zombies unleashed.

But just as he recovered and looked up, he discovered something even more terrifying.

To avoid having too much contact with the driver, he deliberately jumped into the back seat.

Unexpectedly, the other party was still affected by her charm and was now looking at her while driving.

It wasn't from the rearview mirror, but while gripping the steering wheel and pressing the accelerator, that he turned his head to look at the back seat.

He smiled and said, "I always feel like I've seen you somewhere before. Looking at you, I always feel a sense of familiarity."

Jiang Shu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Don't look at me!! Look ahead!!"

The driver shook his head and said sincerely, "My eyes are very small, so small that they can only hold you."

"Brother! Do you know you're driving right now?!" Jiang Shu was going crazy.

"I know." The driver nodded. "Speaking of driving, do you like the sound of the engine?"

As he spoke, the driver floored the accelerator.

A sudden surge of pressure hit him, and Jiang Shu, who never wore a seatbelt in the back seat, nervously fastened it, then said anxiously, "Brother, can we stop for a second? I want to get off. Just call 'arrival'..."

"I've always wanted to be a race car driver, so I often secretly practice drifting and stuff."

"I'm not really concerned..."

"If you're not in a rush, why don't you..."

Boom!

Before he could finish speaking, the car crashed into something, and everything came to an abrupt end.

The airbags suddenly deployed, and the car emitted plumes of black smoke.

Fortunately, it did not hit any other vehicles, but only the stone pillars under the overpass.

The loud noise attracted a crowd of onlookers.

Several brave individuals immediately stepped forward to help.

"There's been a car accident!"

"Help! Someone, come quick!"

"Break open the driver's side door!"

Before they could even begin the rescue, the back door of the car was suddenly pushed open from the inside with such force that the door flew off.

A rice dumpling crawled out of the dumpling, its other hand still clutching the dying driver.

The onlookers were greatly shocked.

It's already a miracle that someone survived a car accident like that, let alone saved someone else's life?

Holy crap, there's a Superman!

The men who had intervened were also stunned until Jiang Shu asked them to lend a hand, at which point they finally reacted.

But just after they settled the driver and called for an ambulance, the rice dumpling had vanished.

For some reason, those who had acted bravely felt a sense of loss.

However, because of the shock of the dying driver and their brief contact with Jiang Shu, the feeling was not very strong.

At this moment, Jiang Shu had already hidden in a dark alley, trembling with fear.

That's terrifying...it's absolutely terrifying...

In order to resist the impact, he summoned the handsaw puppet at the critical moment to protect himself. As a result, the handsaw puppet, which was as strong as his own body, completely fell apart. Now he needs to go back and study it again.

Who says charm is useless? This charm is absolutely insane!

To put it bluntly, if I had been born in 20th-century Germany, what would be the point of having an art student?

"This shouldn't be considered a hit-and-run, right?"

After catching her breath, Jiang Shu felt a little guilty.

But then I thought, ride-hailing platforms have surveillance cameras, so they should be able to see if it's the driver's fault. They'll probably just assume the driver went crazy.

However, Jiang Shu still felt somewhat sorry for the driver.

As compensation, I'll just not apply for a refund from the platform...

I glanced at the navigation; although the driver hadn't taken me there yet, we were only a few hundred meters from our destination.

"Let's sneak over there quietly..."

Jiang Shu sighed and started playing a live-action version of Assassin's Creed, focusing entirely on stealth.

This journey of a few hundred meters was more difficult than he had imagined.

To avoid crowds and prevent them from following him like bloodhounds all the way to the mental hospital, he often had to take detours and even walk on paths that no one should walk on.

This significantly delayed things.

It took him almost an hour to cover just a few hundred meters.

But when they arrived at the entrance of the mental hospital, a new problem arose.

The mental hospital is surrounded by a high wall. Looking through the open main gate, you can see many patients sunbathing in the courtyard without anyone watching them.

The doors were wide open, patients were left unattended, and the top of the wall was filled with glass shards stuck in the cement, it was unclear who they were trying to keep out.

In any case, there is only one entrance, the main gate, and once you enter from there, Jiang Shu will have no way to avoid the crowd.

How can this be good?

Just as Jiang Shu hesitated, a doctor wearing glasses and a white coat came out of the gatehouse.

He walked straight toward Jiang Shu.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Shu instinctively tried to run away, as if in response to a stress reaction.

But to his surprise, the doctor's behavior was perfectly normal.

"Are you a visitor?"

Jiang Shu stopped running and looked the other person up and down.

From this reaction alone, he could tell that the other party was an evolved being, and at a very high level, at least in terms of intelligence.

"Well, the patients are all brought here by others, so I guess I can only be a visitor?"

Jiang Shu answered.

The doctor chuckled and nodded: "No problem. There's only one visitor today, and it must be you. Please come with me."

"Uh...shouldn't we double-check?" Jiang Shu glanced at the empty gatehouse, not even a security guard in sight. "So careless?"

"It's confirmed." The doctor smiled. "Such high charm, it's obvious at a glance."

Is that really the case?

"But please stay close to me and don't wander off on your own, as you might affect the patients."

“I know,” Jiang Shu nodded.

Following the doctor, Jiang Shu entered the main building of the mental hospital.
