A gloomy, possessive male ghost with dissociative identity disorder, paired with a crazy seme who masquerades as a clear-eyed, clueless college student
[Welcome, players, to the Mad Asylum instance!]
The cold, mechanical announcement blared the news Bai Yue least wanted to hear. He knew earning credits at a psychiatric hospital wouldn’t be that easy!
He’d only come to volunteer at the psychiatric hospital, and now he’d been dropped into an infinite-flow game just like that? What a clichéd plot.
Bai Yue sighed for the 567th time. He looked at the courtyard full of people in patient gowns, wandering around like lunatics, and listened to two people by the stairwell argue over whether an apple was a tangerine or a pineapple. Two others were debating whether it was the year 2078 or 2095. He fell into thought once again.
So why had he agreed to volunteer at this psychiatric hospital? Oh, right, for those stupid credits. He was starting to regret it.
These patients really were a little crazy. He felt like he was going crazy too. Put him in a patient gown, and he’d fit right in.
“Hi. Nice to meet you. I’m your fellow patient at the psychiatric hospital.”
Bai Yue’s thoughts were swept away by a gentle voice with a cool tone. He looked up and saw...
Not far away stood a young man in a patient gown. His skin was pale, his features cool and striking. When he glanced up, Bai Yue realized his eyes were red, as if he were wearing colored contacts.
Like a bloodthirsty killer, the gloomy male ghost fixed his eyes on his prey.
Bai Yue wondered, Could someone this handsome really be a psychiatric patient?
“Why aren’t you wearing a patient gown? Aren’t you a patient at this psychiatric hospital?”
The young man spoke again, his tone carrying the damp chill of being clung to by a cold-blooded creature.
Bai Yue was just about to shake his head and say he wasn’t, when the grating announcement blared again.
[Patient number 728 at Sunshine Psychiatric Hospital, Bai Yue, please report for a follow-up examination of your condition.]
????
Several question marks popped up over Bai Yue’s head. Since when had he become a psychiatric patient?
“Why are you always picking on me?” Bai Yue held a dagger against the chest of a young man in a patient gown.
This was the seventh time the young man had stolen his mission points. The first time, he stole the underling Bai Yue had worked so hard to recruit. The second time, he deliberately disguised himself as an NPC to scare Bai Yue while he was on a mission.
This was the seventh time, and Bai Yue had had enough. So he drew his dagger and pressed it to the young man’s chest.
With a knife pointed at his heart, the young man didn’t look afraid. He simply raised his eyes slightly, his crimson gaze fixing on Bai Yue with a bloodthirsty glint.
At that moment, the young man looked just like a killer gone mad. With his gloomy aura, he could have passed for a male ghost.
The young man spoke, his tone carrying the damp chill of being clung to by a cold-blooded creature. “This is how you hold a knife properly. Don’t hesitate when you stab. Like this.”
As he finished speaking, the young man took Bai Yue’s knife hand and plunged the blade into his own heart.
“God Bai, you’re still too weak. Stabbing me in the heart would tire your hand out, so I’d better do it myself.”
The young man’s skin was pale, his features cool and striking. Blood flowed from his chest, but he seemed not to feel any pain. If anything, he seemed to enjoy it.
What a lunatic!
Bai Yue felt the warmth of blood on his hand, now soaked with the young man’s blood. The young man had thought he would recoil in fear, but Bai Yue’s lips curled into a slight smile.
“Pei Han, there are consequences to picking a fight with me.”
His tone and expression had lost all the clear-eyed innocence of a college student. If anything, he seemed even crazier than Pei Han.
And Pei Han liked it.
