Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 61 - 58: Horror Hospital 26 (Bonus)

A trace of guilt flashed in Qianqian’s eyes: "Sorry, I thought they were so badly injured that they wouldn’t survive. Can you not speak of this? I don’t want this affecting my father’s reputation... He really is a good cat, he did this just to stop the cats from being persecuted by humans."

Josh frowned: "Aren’t you a cat yourself? Don’t you know how resilient a cat’s life force is?"

Qianqian lowered her head: "I’m sorry."

Josh didn’t say anything else: "Open the door."

Qianqian hesitated as she looked at her: "I can’t open the door."

Josh: "Why?"

Qianqian bit her lip: "Even though it’s wrong what my dad and I did, letting these cats out will cause panic. Can you guarantee they won’t expose how my dad used my body to abuse the cats? The hospital has been sustained all this time by my dad’s authority."

Only then did Josh realize, yes, people are selfish.

Though it was her dad’s doing, it was her body that was used; once this gets out, neither of them can escape it.

"So..." Qianqian bit her lip in distress, crouching down closer to Josh: "Can you just pretend you didn’t see anything today? These cats aren’t your relatives, just let them fend for themselves in the restroom, okay?"

She leaned in closer: "Little kitty, as long as you don’t tell anyone about today, I’ll give you lots of canned food! Make you the hospital’s VIP, live in the best ward, I promise neither my dad nor I will harm you, and we’ll find you the most excellent human servant!"

Josh looked at those cats struggling for breath, on the verge of death.

Even though they were covered in wounds, even though they were tortured beyond recognition, they hadn’t closed their eyes, hadn’t given up hope for life.

Even seeing the weak being harmed, they would still resolutely step forward to protect.

Any life, when striving to live, is worthy of awe.

The injured cats drooped their eyes, laboriously looking at Josh.

There was neither pleading nor threat in their eyes.

They simply watched her quietly, with an understanding look in their eyes, as if whatever decision she made, they wouldn’t blame her.

Josh’s heart was suddenly gripped by an inexplicable emotion.

Both sour and swollen, rushing to her nose.

She firmly looked at Qianqian: "No! I want to save them!"

The patience in Qianqian’s eyes was gradually dissipating, her gaze growing colder: "Are you sure? If you save them, you’ll no longer enjoy the quality cat villa, delicious food, and considerate human servant service."

Josh continued to nod: "I want to save them!"

"Then you..." Qianqian’s eyes quickly turned icy: "Die with them then!"

She suddenly leaped up, lunging towards Josh with a fruit knife she had somehow gripped.

Josh had been prepared since Qianqian had approached, swiftly sidestepping out of the way.

Qianqian’s eyes glared monstrously, crazily driving the fruit knife towards Josh.

The blade left several marks on the walls and the table.

Josh’s dodges were very agile, and Qianqian wasn’t as nimble as that wandering freak.

She dodged with ease.

Suddenly, Qianqian stopped, mad laughter spreading in her eyes, a piercing laugh escaping her throat, bizarre enough to seem like she might mutate into some strange creature at any moment.

Josh’s intuition spelled trouble.

Qianqian suddenly pulled out a large box of gasoline from under the desk: "In that case, all of you die together! All die!"

She unscrewed the gasoline cap, crazily pouring it over the group of cats.

The wounded, immobile cats couldn’t escape, doused with gasoline.

Qianqian then aimed the gasoline towards Josh.

Josh quickly dodged.

However, Qianqian merely spilled the gasoline around her.

She picked up a candle from the table, hurling it at the cat group.

With a "whoosh," flames quickly spread.

A wall of fire rose rapidly around Josh, trapping her in the center.

The choking smell of burning gasoline was too strong for a cat.

Moreover, the firewall was too close to her.

Josh was trapped by the flames, watching helplessly as the injured cats were burned, squealing, screaming, rolling, constantly using their bodies to hit the walls, trying to extinguish the fire that way.

Seeing this, Qianqian laughed heartily: "You’re all dead! Now no one will know our secret!"

Josh hadn’t felt such pain and anger in a long time.

Watching those cats desperately trying to survive, painfully rolling on the ground, bit by bit getting charred, twitching, gradually losing life.

Qianqian delightfully watched the little cat encircled by the firewall: "Look at your frazzled look, so adorable~ Next to die is you, don’t rush~"

She poured the gasoline onto the ground.

The gasoline flowed towards her on the ground, the fire following.

At the critical moment, the door was kicked open with a "bang."

A white shadow flashed by.

Josh fell into a warm embrace and was instantly pulled away from the fire.

Smoke floated out the doorway, the outside smoke alarm blaring piercingly.

Yuze took her away.

Josh’s eyes were fixed on Qianqian laughing freely in the sea of fire until her figure disappeared from sight.

Noticing she was off, Yuze patted her little head: "What’s wrong? Scared stiff?"

Josh shook her head.

No feeling of relief after the calamity, her mind was filled with the pitiful sight of those poor cats before their tragic death, faint screams echoing in her ears.

Yuze suddenly pressed her head into his pocket, cupping it with his hand: "Alright, don’t be scared."

Josh couldn’t see his expression, only feeling that Yuze’s voice had an unusual tenderness.

Just like...

"You’re freaked out, are you three years old? I’ll find a diaper for you."

Saying this, Yuze indeed crazily pulled her from his pocket, and, from somewhere, got a cat diaper, ready to put it on her.

Josh’s face darkened, kicking his face, leaping to the ground.

Only then did she realize where several of them were.

The sky was just turning light, the hospital in chaos, fighting the fire.

The direction of the duty room was a sea of fire, no survivors.

The horizon had just turned pale white.

Yuze leaned on a long bench in the hospital garden like he had no bones, slender fingers dangling a diaper incongruously with his air, grinning mischievously.

Rob sat blanched to the side as if on the verge of death.

Josh pressed her lips, having no energy to think about what happened in the ward just now.

Yushi appeared beside them softly: "I’m back."
