The newcomer was none other than Jiang Ran.

After using a small comb to tidy up his hair, he tucked the comb back into his shirt pocket.

Then, clearing his throat, he spoke in extremely standard Mandarin: "Hey, are you two deaf? I'm asking, who was screaming for help?"

"It... it was me..."

Kong Haoxia hadn't wanted to say anything, but then he thought, since he was about to die anyway, it didn't matter whether he spoke up or not.

"Oh... it's you... I remember you. Aren't you the new resident? What's going on? Did you and this other new resident on your back have a falling out?"

Mentioning Lü Youwei, Kong Haoxia's face filled with hatred: "It's not a falling out! He's trying to kill me for his own selfish gain!!!"

Jiang Ran let out a long, drawn-out "Oh."

"So that's how it is!"

"Alright then, I'm famously someone who stands up against injustice and loves peace."

"How about you two, for my sake, just let it go and stop fighting?"

His gaze shifted to Lü Youwei.

Lü Youwei only thought for a brief moment before decisively refusing.

He and Kong Haoxia had already completely torn off all pretense. If he didn't kill him this time, once Kong Haoxia went back and told Yang Kang and Wang Zhong about this, even if he wasn't directly retaliated against, he'd definitely be ostracized!

Therefore, Kong Haoxia absolutely had to die!

As for this Jiang Ran in front of him!

Even though he had seen this person kill someone before, back then, you used a chainsaw to kill an idiot who stuck his neck out like a fool.

But right now, your hands are completely empty.

Would he be afraid of you?

"Killing one is killing, killing two is also killing!"

A ruthless glint flashed in Lü Youwei's eyes.

Seizing the moment while Jiang Ran was waiting for his answer, he violently sprang up from Kong Haoxia's back. The sudden exertion of force made Kong Haoxia let out a miserable cry.

After springing up, Lü Youwei, with a fruit knife in his right hand and a kitchen knife in his left, lunged forward, swinging at Jiang Ran who wasn't far away.

He was determined to take this person's wretched life!!!

Just as he swung the two deadly weapons and got close to Jiang Ran, Jiang Ran delivered a flying kick that sent him crashing into a cabinet to the left of Kong Haoxia.

His head hit the corner of the cabinet perfectly squarely.

Blood gushed out non-stop, and he actually passed out on the spot!!!!

"Ah, young people shouldn't be so violent and murderous. Wouldn't it be better to spend more effort on taking care of yourselves?"

Jiang Ran let out a deep sigh after delivering that kick.

Then he strode over to Kong Haoxia, who was still writhing on the floor like an earthworm.

Kong Haoxia's eyes were now filled entirely with fear.

Jiang Ran smiled at him: "Don't be afraid. I'm a mentally ill person. That guy you saw last night wasn't me. I'm different from him."

Kong Haoxia was somewhat confused.

Jiang Ran followed up with another sentence: "If I meant you harm, you would already be dead by Lü Youwei's hand."

Kong Haoxia thought to himself, that's true. Lü Youwei, armed with two knives, was no match for Jiang Ran, let alone him in his current state!

And next, he also believed that Jiang Ran truly wasn't there to kill him.

Because Jiang Ran used Lü Youwei's kitchen knife to cut his bonds.

Only when you're bound do you understand the preciousness of freedom.

After being tied up for so long, Kong Haoxia got up and started moving his hands and feet around.

He was almost crying.

Once he had moved around enough, facing Jiang Ran who had been standing there the whole time, he couldn't hold back anymore and started crying:

"Jiang... Jiang Ran! Thank you! Really, thank you! If it weren't for you! I'd be dead by now! And I'd have died so unjustly!"

"I... I really don't know how to repay you!!!!"

He grabbed Jiang Ran's hand.

Words of gratitude failed him: "Jiang Ran, from now on, you're my brother! If you have any difficulties, just tell your little brother!"

"I'm a rich second generation! I have money! I also have lots of beautiful girlfriends!"

"Just say the word, and once I leave Alice Apartment, however much money you want, I'll spend it on you!!! I'll call them all over! You can pick whichever you want! No, I'll make them all serve you!!!!"

"Even... even my mom! That's possible too! My mom is really good-looking! Anyway, my dad has other women outside already!!!"

Kong Haoxia's words were getting more and more outrageous.

Besides wanting to give money and his girlfriends, he even wanted to offer up his own mother.

What a truly filial son.

"Alright, stop talking. You should clean up your face a bit. A man should always maintain his composure, no matter the situation."

As Jiang Ran spoke, he pulled a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it to him.

But Kong Haoxia still kept mumbling.

Only after he had finished expressing his gratitude did he turn his attention to the unconscious Lü Youwei.

Looking at Lü Youwei's sorry state, he got so angry that he rushed over and gave him a hard kick.

"What's wrong? Want to kill him for revenge?"

Jiang Ran leaned in and asked.

Kong Haoxia's face paled slightly: "No, I want to call Yang Kang and the others over to deal with him!"

He took out his phone and called Yang Kang and Wang Zhong.

Yang Kang and Wang Zhong in Room 501 had already finished cooking and were waiting for these two to come up and eat.

But quite some time passed. Not only did the person who was called not come down to eat, but the person who went to call him didn't return either.

They couldn't get through when they tried to contact them.

Both of them were about to go down and look for them.

That's when a call finally came through.

It was from Kong Haoxia.

Yang Kang answered immediately, about to ask what they were doing.

Could it be that Lü Youwei went to call you to eat, but saw you having fun with a woman, got tempted, and stayed there too?

But then, he heard Kong Haoxia's sobbing.

A whole jumbled, garbled stream of words that left Yang Kang and Wang Zhong utterly confused.

In short, Kong Haoxia was telling them to come up quickly.

Both Yang Kang and Wang Zhong were relatively cautious. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

They definitely had to go up, but they couldn't go empty-handed. So, each of them brought a knife.

From the 5th floor to the 8th floor, it was only three floors.

It took them fifteen minutes to go up.

The entire journey was as cautious as a special forces team raiding a building to eliminate terrorists.

And when they finally reached the open doorway of Room 801 and looked inside, both of them thought things looked very bad.

Because what was the living room like?

Lü Youwei was lying unconscious on the floor, bleeding profusely.

Kong Haoxia was crying.

And a person they never expected to see, Jiang Ran, was standing there, looking completely calm and unruffled.

Even though the Ultimate Rich Kid Lin Feng, and I am the Hero Wang Baobao, had told Yang Kang that Jiang Ran was the safest person in the entire Alice Apartment, and that he was also a lab rat, they had also warned him that Jiang Ran was mentally ill, and the alternate personalities within him were extremely dangerous.

Especially yesterday, he had personally witnessed Jiang Ran's alternate personality kill someone.

So, he was very suspicious.

Was the current situation like this?

Lü Youwei, who went down to call someone to eat, was knocked out by Jiang Ran. Kong Haoxia was coerced into calling the two of them down.

So Jiang Ran could catch them all in one net?

Wang Zhong probably had the same thought as Yang Kang. Therefore, both of them blocked the doorway, and neither dared to be the first to step inside.

Afraid that whether they stepped in with their left foot first or their right foot first would give Jiang Ran a reason to come after them.

Thus, Yang Kang cautiously shouted into the room: "Hey! Kong Haoxia, what exactly is going on here?!"
