Chapter 355: Chapter 289: Save Yourself! (4300 words)

Xiang Er lay naked and flat on the bed of the rented room, while Zhang Xiaomo bent over, observing her meticulously and occasionally touching the skin patterns at the fracture sites with her fingers. She watched intently for a full hour.

Knock, knock, knock, the sound of knocking on the door came from outside, and Yan Junze said, “May I come in now?”

“Wait a little longer,” Zhang Xiaomo said without turning her head.

And with that, another half hour passed.

The weather was turning cold, and night had fallen. Yan Junze, who had been standing outside all this time, felt a bone-chilling cold in his limbs and said, “If you want to study her properly, then I’ll go back first. You can sleep with Xiang Er tonight, she’s yours.”

No sooner had he spoken than the door opened, and Zhang Xiaomo squeezed her body out. The door was not opened very wide, as if she was afraid that Yan Junze would peek at the charming spring scenery inside.

After coming out, Zhang Xiaomo closed the door immediately, shaking her head and sighing, “Perfect, every part of this woman’s body is perfect. Yan Long, just how twisted does one’s mind have to be to do such a thing?”

“To scheme with an Ancient Corpse to kill Old Guo just shows how ruthless and overly obsessed he is. We ordinary people can’t imagine what goes on in the minds of such people,” Yan Junze said with a shrug.

“You’re an ordinary person?” Zhang Xiaomo blinked at him.

Yan Junze chuckled and changed the subject, “After looking for so long, did you find anything?”

Zhang Xiaomo said, “Each part of the body was bonded with a special corpse salve used by the Spirit Cultivators, with no traces of stitching between the cracks, and the muscles and skin are joined perfectly. Even in the early stages of bonding, these muscles and skin showed signs of slow growth, which is why we see the growth effect we do now.”

“Will this body continue to grow?” Yan Junze wondered.

“No, that was just a kind of induced growth, like the effect of hormones, it can’t continue indefinitely,” Zhang Xiaomo shook her head.

Then her expression became mysterious, “Did you secretly move this thing out without letting the Exorcist squad of Tianyi District know?”

Yan Junze shrugged, “I didn’t notice her at first, not until I was about to leave. I didn’t know what it was and thought there was a big strangeness hidden there, so I decided to take it out quietly by myself. But instead, I dug up this fellow.”

“Lying to ghosts?” Zhang Xiaomo sniffed, “With the four-star Exorcist Shi Tai there, why didn’t you notify him of a big strangeness and instead decided to deal with it yourself?”

“Don’t you know me? I’m very resistant to directly killing strangenesses; Zen-style exorcism is real love,” Yan Junze laughed.

“But speaking of which,” Zhang Xiaomo’s expression became a bit odd, “this girl, attached to the female corpse, why does it feel like she’s a blank slate when interacting with her? She doesn’t understand anything and keeps asking ‘why’ no matter what I say.”

Yan Junze briefly described the background of Ugly Girl. After listening for a while, Zhang Xiaomo seemed to feel a twinge of sympathy for Ugly Girl’s predicament and turned to enter the room, saying, “I’m going to check on her again. You can only come in after she gets dressed. Oh, by the way…”

She suddenly stopped in her tracks, standing at the door, and turned her head to look at Yan Junze suspiciously, “You haven’t seen her naked body, have you?”

“The moon is really nice tonight,” Yan Junze pointed at the sky.

Zhang Xiaomo was exasperated, “Fine then.”

She knew that he must have seen Xiang Er’s naked body, and not just once. Of course, it was inevitable to see each other’s bodies in that situation, but it was natural for a twinge of jealousy to arise in Zhang Xiaomo’s heart.

So she too lifted her head to look at the sky, adopting an exaggerated tone, “Wow, how big and round the moon is, perfect for you to stand outside a bit longer. The person in the shadow there probably misses you a lot.”

With that, she closed the door.

Yan Junze: “…”

About two minutes later, the door of the rented room opened, and Zhang Xiaomo stood there with a mischievous smile on her face.

“What, she didn’t come out to find you? Such a fine moonlight, what a pity,” she said.

Yan Junze chuckled, “The human heart is poisonous, the eaves are deep, life is tough for me.”

Having said that, he quickly slipped into the room.

Zhang Xiaomo punched him on the chest, chiding him, “Who are you calling poisonous?”

Yan Junze grabbed her fist without letting go and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a gaze on him. Turning his head, he saw Xiang Er sitting on the bed, curiously staring at the two of them.

Now Xiang Er could control the gaze of this body, making expressions similar to human eye contact, though not very clear and requiring careful discernment.

But at this moment, her eyes were obviously filled with surprise, staring unblinkingly at Yan Junze and Zhang Xiaomo.

Zhang Xiaomo wanted to pull her hand back but hesitated and stood there dumbfounded without moving.

Yan Junze said, “Your hand is a bit cold, just like Xiang Er’s. You need to warm it up, starting from now for at least half an hour.”

Zhang Xiaomo blushed with annoyance and let him hold her hand, merely shooting Yan Junze a glare, “Men, not one good thing among them.”

“Really?” Xiang Er suddenly spoke up.

“No, of course not,” Yan Junze hastened to shake his head, “Don’t listen to Xiaomo’s nonsense. There are many good men, like me.”

Zhang Xiaomo couldn’t help but laugh and remained silent.

“Always holding the magnetic knife, look, you’ve got calluses in the palm,” Yan Junze took her hand to touch the calloused spot, but Zhang Xiaomo quickly clenched her hand, suddenly turning it into her holding Yan Junze’s hand.
