On the other side, after escaping from the room of sisters Tangtang and Guoguo, the man initially intended to flee back to his own home. However, halfway there, he stopped and, after contemplating for a moment, turned and walked towards Fourth Old Wu's home.
Fourth Old Wu delayed on the road for a bit before he managed to return home. Once home, the first thing he did was bury himself completely under the covers, writhing on the bed like a giant worm. He unconsciously bit the blanket and his entire body shook uncontrollably.
His mind was entirely occupied with everything that had happened at Tangtang and Guoguo's place, especially the image of them lying twisted on the ground, a scene replaying relentlessly in his head, almost driving him to madness.
Hiding under the covers, he felt intensely cold, a chill seeping from the depths of his body outward, a cold that no blanket could warm.
