Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

Jiang Ran, having climbed back to his feet, staggered unsteadily.

It took him a good while to finally stabilize himself, and he stood crookedly in the same spot for several minutes.

After those minutes passed, his body gradually straightened, and he began twisting his neck left and right, twisting his hands, twisting his waist, and twisting his thighs and calves.

It looked like he was warming up.

Then, his face, which had been lowered the whole time, suddenly lifted. His raised face was covered in blood, but upon that bloodied visage bloomed a radiant, brilliant smile.

At that moment, he stepped forward and walked in a certain direction.

He kept walking and walking until he reached the entrance of a German restaurant.

This German restaurant seemed like it was about to close for the night.

And now, from the doorway of this soon-to-close German restaurant, quite a few people were coming out.

These people were none other than Bai Xiaoliang and his group.

They had just finished dinner and were preparing to walk back to the 25 Hours Hotel.

After emerging from the warm restaurant, several of them felt the cold wind outside. The black man stretched his arms wide with a big yawn.

"Ah well, big cities are still better. At least the nightlife isn't so lonely and dull. In this little town, it feels like I've stepped into retirement life."

The senior brother among the five men and three women chuckled.

"I actually kind of like this kind of environment. It's peaceful."

Right after that, the senior brother looked around at his surroundings. When his gaze swept over the street to the left, his eyes locked onto something there.

Because in that dimly lit area beneath the streetlamp, he spotted a figure slowly walking toward them.

He didn't pay it much mind at first and was about to look away. But just before he turned his head, his gaze froze, because the person had walked close enough for him to see clearly.

What made his head freeze was that the person approaching them was covered in so much blood on their face and body, as if they had just crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

"Hey, senior brother, why aren't you moving?"

The others noticed the senior brother standing still, so they looked at him, and as they did, they followed his line of sight and saw the blood-soaked figure nearing them.

The moment they saw that bloodied man, everyone's breath caught in their throats.

The next moment.

Bai Xiaoliang let out a terrified shout.

"Jiang Ran!!"

That terrified shout came out in his native language, not English. This showed just how truly shocked he was from the bottom of his heart to see Jiang Ran here, and to see him in this state.

Hearing Bai Xiaoliang's cry.

The blood-soaked man stopped right in front of Bai Xiaoliang and the others. He slowly turned his head and flashed a brilliant smile at Bai Xiaoliang.

"Are you calling me?"

"Jiang Ran, what happened? Why are you covered in blood?"

Bai Xiaoliang quickly stepped forward.

Jiang Ran stared at Bai Xiaoliang before him. After staring for a long time, his smile grew even wider.

"Oh, don't even mention it. I had just finished my onboarding training and hadn't been out for a minute before I got hit by a car."

"You got hit by a car too?"

Bai Xiaoliang was stunned.

Wasn't this a bit too coincidental? Wasn't it enough that one of his senior brothers had been hit today? Now Jiang Ran had been hit too?

"Can you tell me the specifics? The details of the accident."

"The details of the accident? I didn't pay attention. Besides, even if I told you the specifics, could you catch the hit-and-run driver?"

Jiang Ran's smile remained unchanged.

These words left Bai Xiaoliang speechless.

Indeed, they couldn't even catch the driver who had hit his senior brother during the day. And now, trying to catch another hit-and-run driver late at night? That was even more difficult.

The others present, though unable to understand the conversation between the two, studied Jiang Ran's face carefully upon seeing Bai Xiaoliang recognize him.

They all suddenly remembered and informed each other that this man crawling out of a sea of blood was actually Jiang Ran!

"Lucas, what are they saying?"

The black man turned to ask Lucas, knowing he was a mixed-race person who could understand Chinese.

At this moment, Lucas was still in shock from seeing Jiang Ran in this ghostly state.

Caught off guard by the black man's sudden question, he hesitated for a moment.

He said, "Wasn't paying attention."

The black man was speechless. Now they could only wait for Bai Xiaoliang to come back and explain the situation.

Bai Xiaoliang, at this point, didn't know what else to say to Jiang Ran either, so he returned and told these people about Jiang Ran also being hit by a car.

After hearing this, everyone was confused.

What was going on?

Another car accident?

And what was even more bizarre was, looking at Jiang Ran's pitiful state right now, the accident must have been severe.

Look at all that blood on his head, his face, his entire body.

Yet, having lost that much blood to such a horrifying degree, Jiang Ran could still stand here and flash a cheeky grin at others?

Wasn't he way too tough?!

"Hey, Jiang Ran, where are you going again?! Aren't you going to the hospital? I'll call an ambulance for you!"

After finishing telling his teacher and the others about Jiang Ran's situation, Bai Xiaoliang turned around again and noticed Jiang Ran had already started walking forward.

Jiang Ran replied while walking, "Hospital? No. What's so great about a place like that?"

Bai Xiaoliang grew anxious: "You got hit by a car! Even if you can still move around freely now, you might have internal injuries! You definitely need to go to the hospital for a checkup!!!"

As a doctor, Bai Xiaoliang was absolutely conscientious.

But Jiang Ran just waved his hand, leaving them only with his retreating silhouette.

"Chased by a chainsaw murderer, ambushed in a room by two Hua Country Asian men, claimed he was poisoned with a heart-paralyzing toxin, and now he's been in a car accident."

Standing at the restaurant entrance, staring at Jiang Ran's now-vanished figure, Bai Xiaoliang's teacher suddenly uttered these words.

"Don't you all think it's strange? One person, in just a few short days, in a foreign land, having so many things happen to him?"

Michelle's words were like piercing through a paper window.

Before she pierced through it, no one had really connected the dots or thought about it.

But after she pierced through it and listed out the events that had happened to Jiang Ran one by one, everyone suddenly felt that it was indeed quite peculiar.

"This Jiang Ran, his experiences over these past few days are like having bad luck hanging over his head. And these four incidents? You could say they were all aimed at the word 'death.'"

The senior brother also spoke up.

Michelle said, "What if it's not just so-called accidents brought on by bad luck? What do you think, Bai?"

Pushing down his worry for Jiang Ran for the moment, Bai Xiaoliang forced himself to think about these events happening to Jiang Ran.

Now that he thought about it, it was indeed very strange.

"If it's not an accident, then hypothetically speaking, someone is targeting Jiang Ran, continuously attempting to murder him."

The senior brother added, "If that's the case, then let's just continue with that hypothesis."

"Jiang Ran has been targeted by some criminal organization, or has become prey on some kill list."
