Chapter 4

I huffed in pain.

I refused to give in to his threats of such violence.

"Kill me if you can, sooner or later the real police will bring you scum to justice!"

The smile on Paul's face faded.

His eyes were shadowy, and he looked at me with a shiver.

Suddenly, he kicked me hard in the stomach.

I just felt my internal organs being shattered by the kick and couldn't help but vomit.

The blue and white hospital gown was stained with vomit and an unpleasant odor spread.

Before I could slow down, Paul's second kick came back up.

This time I couldn't hold it together and spit out a large amount of blood.

Sharp pain rattled my nerves, and I blacked out in front of my eyes.

Then Paul grabbed a handful of my hair and I just felt my scalp being ripped off by him.

"Let go, let go! Let go!"

He said in a cold voice, "You'd better recognize reality for what it is, you're a psychopath now, if you don't want to be beaten to death by me, you'd better listen to me properly!"

I retorted with difficulty, "...... you, do, dream!"

Paul increased the force on his hands and tried to make a move on me.

At that moment another voice came from outside the hospital room.

"Dr. Hughes, there's someone coming over there."

Paul sniffs and finally lets go of me.

"I know."

He didn't even look at me and turned away.

I finally couldn't hold it together and slowly closed my eyes, trying to ease the pain in my abdomen by adjusting my breathing.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a thud behind me.

Looks like someone's banging on the wall.

I strained to open my eyes and inquired in a low voice, "Who?"

A weak female voice came from behind the wall, "...... Are you okay, I heard you being beaten for a long time."

I was instantly energized, and pursued the question, "Were you taken in, too?"

Instead of answering my question, the girl advised me.

"That Paul, you'd better not mess with him, he really does kill people!"

I wondered, "It's a law and order society now, isn't he afraid of being caught for killing?"

The girl's tone of voice weakened a bit as if she recalled something.

"There have been people before who were just as unwilling to submit as you are, but Paul fed her, split her ...... again ...... to the dogs in front of us!"
