BANG—!
The impact left me recoiling back on my chair, smashing against the floor as I raised my head to look at the rat who stood before me, his face frosted all over as he tried to reach for the device on the table.
"No!"
I didn't let him.
Despite being on the floor, I still acted, hurriedly dragging myself toward the table, my palms scraping against the cold surface as I reached for the device, just barely managing to shove it away from him before his fingers could graze it.
"….!?"
The rat's expression twisted further, his eyes widening with a crazed glint as the device scattered across the floor, clattering against the tiles. Without hesitation, he lunged toward it, his desperation clear.
"Fuck off!"
Pushing myself up, I smashed my shoulder against the rat's body, knocking him off balance.
BANG!
"Ukh!"
His body staggered back a couple of steps.
