Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

The joy lasted only three seconds.

Old Jiang's eyes widened suddenly, blood splattered from the top of his head, and he turned his head with his eyes wide open in death, only to see the little girl, who looked like a demon from hell, staring at him with a sinister look. A gurgling sound came from his throat, the smell of blood engulfed him, and he trembled uncontrollably all over.

With a soft "pfft".

The pink hair suddenly pierced through his neck and wrapped tightly around him.

Lin Shuangshuang's pupils constricted, and she glared at him fiercely, saying, "Go to hell."

Old Jiang is completely dead.

The pink curly hair ripped his head off and even tried to tear his entire body apart.

Lin Shuangshuang's pollution levels skyrocketed, and her bracelet kept beeping warnings. Due to the overload, Zhao Pingsheng received the signal and immediately made an emergency call: "What's wrong with you guys? Are you alright? What happened?"

"Ahem, Lin Shuangshuang."

While controlling the mutated pangolin, Huo Ling called out to the out-of-control Lin Shuangshuang.

The pink-haired girl turned to look at him.

Huo Ling looked at her ferocious features and inhuman pupils, but he was not frightened. He simply said calmly, "I'm fine."

Lin Shuangshuang blinked, her rationality gradually returning. She looked down at the blood all over the ground and the fragments of Lao Jiang, then looked up and saw the horrified expressions on Qi Zhi and Qi Mo's faces, as well as the wide-eyed stares of Luo Na and the other two.

She was somewhat at a loss.

Huo Ling couldn't bear to see her blank expression. Despite the pain in his chest, he said to her, "Come here."

Lin Shuangshuang continued to look at him. She even wiped the blood off her long hair that was hanging in front of her, but no matter how much she wiped, she couldn't get it clean.

Just like her identity, she was always different from him and from them.

Seeing her nervously wiping away the blood, Huo Ling said, "Come here, let me wipe it for you."

Just like every time he used to dry her hair, it was as if she wasn't stained with blood, but simply washing her hair on a night when she finished a mission.

There was silence for several seconds.

Lin Shuangshuang gave a soft "hmm" with a nasal tone and slowly walked towards him.

The four-star mutated pangolin was on its last legs. Several of them took turns attacking it and finally managed to stop it. The pink fog was also almost gone.

Huo Ling told her to deliver the final blow. Lin Shuangshuang's frozen brain began to work, and she deftly used a steel pipe to pierce its head and dig out its alien core.

This is a pink heteronucleus; its abilities are currently unknown.

Qi Zhi and Qi Mo stumbled back several steps, and Modia turned pale. When he saw Lin Shuangshuang staring at him, he started to tremble.

Luo Na and the other two were naturally frightened, but it was alright because Zhao Pingsheng had already given them a heads-up, and Huo Ling hadn't hidden anything from Lin Shuangshuang. They just didn't expect her berserk state to be like this.

The battle is over.

Their superpowers have also been successfully drained, so they won't be able to leave for a while.

It was 5:10 PM.

Qi Zhi and Qi Mo came to their senses; the base wouldn't send a car at a time like this.

"The nights here are particularly dangerous, much more dangerous than in other places. In situations like this, teams going out on missions can only hope for the best."

"Yes."

The siblings were now completely exhausted from their supernatural abilities and were extremely weak.

Modia couldn't get up at all. Half of his powers and life force had been drained away, leaving him half-dead and severely injured.

Huo Ling suggested spending the night there, saying, "Luo Na, the three of you, and Qi Mo will keep watch together."

As for him, Modia, and Qizhi, all three were seriously injured and needed to recuperate. They were currently unable to settle scores with Lao Jiang for betraying them.

The man was one of Modia's men, but he himself was betrayed and left half-dead.

What can I say?

In addition, after a fierce battle, no one had the energy to think about these things anymore.

I just want to collapse and rest.

Rona and the other two said they had no objections. "Captain Huo, you should rest." "Yeah, we'll take care of things here." "We're just overexerted, we just need a rest. You're seriously injured, it's very dangerous, you should rest."

Huo Ling nodded. He was particularly good at enduring pain, so he appeared calm and collected on the surface, and even invited Lin Shuangshuang to follow him.

"Come help me up."

Lin Shuangshuang immediately went over and found that her hands were covered in blood. She then wiped her hands vigorously on her body before helping him up.

Huo Ling didn't care about that at all. He just glanced at his palms, which she had roughly rubbed red. He put his arm around Lin Shuangshuang's shoulder and leaned on her lightly, without really putting all his strength on her.

He just wanted to find a quiet place to comfort her.

Inside a clinic.

Lin Shuangshuang helped Huo Ling sit on the hospital bed, then didn't know what to do. She lowered her head and didn't speak, as if she felt guilty about something.

Huo Ling checked the time; it was 5:20. He could still coax her for forty minutes. "Come here, let me hug you," he said gently.

Switch to soothing mode.

Lin Shuangshuang pouted, her eyes brimming with tears, and walked towards him. Then she climbed onto him, wrapped her arms around his neck, and sat in his lap.

Huo Ling held her, leaned back, reached out and grabbed the unopened new air conditioning blanket from the side, took off her tattered blue tarpaulin, wrapped her in the air conditioning blanket, and then pressed her into his arms. Only then did he catch his breath.

A dull ache is throbbing inside my chest.

For a moment, I couldn't tell whether it was the pain in my internal organs or the heartache I felt for her that was stronger.

"What are you thinking about?"

Huo Ling raised his hand and patted her back, not used to her being so quiet.

Lin Shuangshuang nestled in his arms, and Huo Ling used an air-conditioned blanket to create a safe fortress for her, or rather, a tortoise shell, where she could hide.

She remained silent.

Huo Ling knew what she was thinking. "I don't think you are... well, there's nothing wrong with jellyfish. It's okay if your fighting style is a bit bloody. You killed our enemies, so you did nothing wrong."

He looked down at her, only able to see a sliver of her hair. "So what are you panicking about?"

Lin Shuangshuang pressed her face against his chest, burying her head in the sand like an ostrich, her voice muffled and nasal, "But I scared your friend."

Huo Ling reminded her, "They are your partners too. If you were scared, you were scared. You'll recover, won't you? You're not them, so why should you make decisions for them? Whether they are willing to continue accepting you is their problem, and whether I am willing to accept you is my problem."

She won't change because of anyone, so she doesn't need to be afraid.

Lin Shuangshuang burst into tears, choking back sobs as she asked, "Then have you forgiven me?"

Huo Ling said calmly, "These are two different things. I haven't forgiven you, but I'm not afraid of you either. Also, stop crying, it's cold, and I don't have any clothes to change into."

Lin Shuangshuang couldn't help but raise her hand to wipe his chest. There were indeed some traces of her tears, making it damp. "I'm sorry, I got you wet."

Huo Ling calmly said, "It's okay, this isn't the first time."

Lin Shuangshuang mustered her courage and stared at him for a while. She didn't find any disgust or fear in his expression, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's great," she said.

Huo Ling said, "What's so good about it?"

Lin Shuangshuang shook her head, nestled between him and the air-conditioning blanket, and said reassuringly, "You're so good, Huo Ling, you're the absolute best."

Huo Ling's eyelids grew heavier and heavier. He casually raised his hand to pat her back, his voice low, "Yeah, I'm the absolute best..."

He fell asleep.
