Jiang Ran's phone screen had an anime landscape as its wallpaper.

But due to the cracked screen and bloodstain contamination, this landscape didn't look so great.

"Has the condition worsened again? Otherwise, shouldn't I normally wake up once the crisis is resolved? The interval is only a few hours at most, or a few days stretched to the limit?"

"This... how is it two months all of a sudden? It can't be that I've been in danger for this entire long period, right?"

His thumb unconsciously rubbed up and down on the screen.

There were too many things Jiang Ran couldn't figure out.

Therefore, he simply stopped thinking about it.

He got up and walked into the bathroom.

The top priority now was to deal with the injuries on his body.

Of course, because his current appearance was too frightening, he planned to first use hot water to gently wipe and clean off the bloodstains before going to the hospital for proper treatment.

The people in the two live stream rooms just watched as the awakened Jiang Ran moved step by step in confusion.

Far Neighbor game live stream room.

Middle-aged Uncle: [Jiang Ran's words after waking up mean... this is the real main personality? So, it's possible it hasn't been him for two months?]

Domineering Female CEO: [It should be. This current one has that familiar feeling.]

These people had previously speculated that the current Jiang Ran was an alternate personality or something.

They just hadn't guessed that it hadn't been the main personality for such a long time.

Fairy Sister: [What's this about a castle and an armored man? Who knows?]

An unknown person answered: [He attended a class reunion and encountered another live stream game. It's that simple.]

Fairy Sister: [Really... unlucky...]

Immediately after, the people in the two live stream rooms watched as Jiang Ran gently cleaned his wounds and changed clothes.

He limped out of Alice Apartment.

By the time Jiang Ran returned again, it was already past 1 PM.

The Jiang Ran who returned was wrapped in white bandages all over—if not a mummy, it was pretty close.

The doctors and nurses who treated him strongly urged him to be hospitalized.

But he refused.

If he couldn't move at all, then he would have stayed hospitalized.

Even though his injuries looked severe, he felt there wasn't really anything seriously wrong with his body, so he didn't want to waste the money.

After returning home, Jiang Ran turned on the air conditioner in the living room and stood mummy-style in front of it, blowing warm air.

Two-thirds of his entire head was bandaged, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

Blinking.

He didn't really want to figure out what had happened during such a long period right now.

Because he couldn't figure it out.

The only thing worth being thankful for was that there was quite a bit more money in his bank card account.

"Rest well. Wait until my body fully recovers before thinking about anything else..."

Sitting on the sofa.

He pulled out his phone.

Fortunately, only the tempered glass screen protector was broken; he just needed to replace it.

After taking out the phone, he called Manager Mao Li Zhishu, intending to ask for a few days off to recuperate from his injuries.

This was the basic courtesy of being an assistant manager.

However, after getting through, he learned that he was no longer an assistant manager!!!!

"Manager, when did I resign?"

Jiang Ran asked excitedly.

Manager Mao Li Zhishu on the other end was bewildered when he received this call.

Asking him for leave?

How long has it been since you stopped being an assistant manager? What leave are you asking him for?

But instantly, he understood. This Jiang Ran was probably the original one? Or was it yet another alternate personality?

He wasn't clear about this matter.

But if you asked him when Jiang Ran resigned...

He couldn't very well say, "You didn't resign. A long time ago, you were fired by the former Captain Gao and the security team together. After that, you killed them all?"

Hmm... After careful consideration, Manager Mao Li Zhishu decided it was best to honestly act as an uninformed third-party perspective to answer this question.

"It's like this, about one or two months ago! But it wasn't that you resigned; you were fired."

"Of course, it wasn't me who fired you!"

Manager Mao Li Zhishu quickly added this sentence, afraid Jiang Ran would misunderstand and bear a grudge against him.

Jiang Ran was puzzled: "It wasn't you who fired me? Then who was it?"

He thought, isn't the apartment manager the highest authority? Could it have been the apartment's boss who fired him?

Manager Mao Li Zhishu:

"Do you remember that you once criticized Captain Gao and those security team members for being inactive, earning high salaries while acting like turtles, having no sense of responsibility, and things like that?"

"I remember, of course I remember."

Jiang Ran recalled while holding the phone.

He clearly remembered criticizing Captain Gao and the others for their attitude once or twice, or maybe two or three times.

It was indeed him who criticized them; no one else could take the blame for this.

"But what does that have to do with me being fired?"

He asked suspiciously.

The reply came: "You criticized Captain Gao and the others. They held a grudge and used the worker's rights in our apartment to hold a full vote and fire you, the assistant manager."

"What? They can play it like that? They can use a vote to fire someone?"

Upon hearing this news, Jiang Ran, despite his injured body, shot to his feet with a *whoosh*.

He didn't even care about the residual pain on his body.

This was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing—being fired not by the boss, but by people like the security team captain.

"Hey, don't get agitated. I tried my best to mediate at the time, but they wouldn't listen to me. I couldn't do anything about them."

Manager Mao Li Zhishu on the other end probably also sensed Jiang Ran's agitation and immediately tried to soothe him.

Jiang Ran: "Okay, okay, I'm not agitated. So, this is the reason I resigned... no, was fired?"

Manager Mao Li Zhishu: "Pretty much, but the story isn't over." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Jiang Ran: "What happened next? Could the security team possibly even kick me, a property owner, out?"

Jiang Ran began to feel resentment towards Captain Gao and the others in the security team.

He felt his original criticism and scolding were completely justified.

These security team members, when encountering danger, ran faster than the property owners.

They were only good for guarding the gate; they might as well get a few dogs to guard the gate.

As a result, his criticism instead provoked their jealousy and hatred. These days, it's really hard to be a person and do things!

Clearly, it was well-intentioned advice, earnest and sincere, yet it turned into hatred.

Manager Mao Li Zhishu continued:

"They don't have the ability to kick property owners out. However... around the same day you were fired, a mysterious man with a disguised face suddenly broke into Alice Apartment and killed Captain Gao and the entire security team, leaving not a single one alive."

*Buzz buzz buzz!*

Hearing this sentence, Jiang Ran was first stunned, then pleased, and then stunned again.

The first stunned reaction was surprise at such an event occurring.

The second pleased reaction was hearing the news that the entire security team was wiped out—serves them right!

Even though being completely killed was somewhat excessively cruel to them.

And the third stunned reaction was...

He was fired that day, and on the same day, a mysterious man broke in and killed them all...

This... from an outsider's perspective, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like there would be no connection between the two events?

Jiang Ran couldn't help but feel uncomfortable all over: "By the way, was the murderer caught?"

Manager Mao Li Zhishu: "No, the murderer was very cunning. Even now, he hasn't been caught, and no one knows who did it."

Who did Jiang Ran think did it?

There's a high probability, 99%, that it was him—no, his alternate personality.
