Damn it!
He was actually scared by an Asian monkey!
Flunky Number One's face darkened. He puffed out his chest and lifted his chin, forcing himself to say, "I will definitely catch those two bitches before you, and prove to Father that I am his favorite child!"
With that, he grabbed a lamp and quickly walked away in Sophia's direction.
After the person had walked far away, Li Andy slowly withdrew his gaze.
"Still, I won't kill him yet; this guy will be useful later..."
He held the kitchen knife in front of his face. On the gleaming silver blade, a young boy's face with black hair and black eyes was reflected.
His features were delicate, and he was good-looking.
His aura was gloomy, like a killer.
"Heh..."
Li Andy smiled contentedly, flicking the kitchen knife in his hand, which made a crisp "ding, ding" sound.
Then, his entire being disappeared into the darkness.
...
...
"Whew..."
Yuquan Youxi hid between the shelves in the storage room, taking several deep breaths before her wildly beating heart finally calmed down. But as the excitement faded, the chilly night air made her body shiver involuntarily.
Just then, footsteps sounded from outside.
"Thump, thump, thump... Bang!"
The storage room door was pushed open, and a shadow holding a knife was reflected within.
The figure walked closer, the sharp glint of the knife tip particularly noticeable in the darkness.
Yuquan Youxi quickly covered her mouth with her hand, but her heart couldn't help but accelerate again.
With the faint light from outside the door, Yuquan Youxi could still make out that it was her recognized brother, Li Andy.
"Thump, thump, thump..."
The knife-wielding shadow slowly passed by one shelf after another, each step seemingly treading on her heart.
The knife-wielding figure circled once, seemingly finding nothing, then turned and walked away, his footsteps fading into the distance.
"Whew—"
Yuquan Youxi slowly let out a breath.
But the thought that the brother who had cared for her so much before was actually such a person filled her heart with unbearable pain.
Tears overflowed from her eyes, flowing along her fingers to her lips, tasting bitter.
Just then, a smiling face suddenly appeared between the shelves, quietly staring at her.
"Hoo—!!"
Yuquan Youxi's heart seemed to leap into her throat. She tightly covered her mouth with both hands, struggling to suppress her scream.
"Brother... I... I..."
She was about to plead when she saw the figure in front of her raise a finger to his lips.
"Shhh—"
Li Andy winked his right eye at her.
Yuquan Youxi froze.
At that moment, muffled footsteps and furious curses came from outside the room:
"Damn it! Where did those two bugs run off to!"
Yuquan Youxi's heart tightened again.
A few seconds later, a middle-aged man, holding an axe and covered in blood, passed by the storage room.
"Andy?"
The middle-aged man stiffly twisted his neck,
"Did you find them?!"
Li Andy used his body to block the view of the shelves and replied with a look of "annoyance":
"Father! I was so close! Just a little bit more and I would have caught her! But Sophia, that bitch, ambushed me, and I almost died!"
The man frowned. Seeing the torn clothes on Li Andy, his expression softened slightly, but his tone remained irritable:
"Keep searching for me! You must catch them before dawn! I will personally flay them, make their skin into spirit drums, and their fat into candles! If you catch them first, I'll let you be the first to taste the heart-blood medicine bestowed by the Benefactor!"
"Yes, Father!"
Li Andy trembled all over, also showing a sickly fanaticism that didn't seem faked.
The man nodded, dragging his axe, and went to the next room.
Not long after, the sound of smashing and chopping things could be heard from next door.
Li Andy narrowed his eyes, shedding his fanatical expression.
That man, John Rotter, was the final Boss of this chapter, the half-crazed orphanage director.
John wasn't worried that Li Andy would betray him out of affection, because it was he who had instructed Li Andy to recognize the female lead as his sister!
The purpose was to deceive Yuquan Youxi's trust, then confess before the sacrifice, making her emotions filled with despair and pain, to become a qualified sacrifice.
Before Yuquan Youxi came to the orphanage, they had already harmed several people in this way.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that the Li Andy in front of him had long since changed souls.
Before leaving, Li Andy looked back at the shelves.
They were already empty.
'She's quite clever, knowing to seize the opportunity to escape.'
Li Andy curved his lips, withdrew his gaze, and strode away.
After quite some time, in a dark corner of the storage room, a girl's figure slowly emerged.
Yuquan Youxi pursed her lips, staring at the doorway with a complex expression, holding a key in her hand, lost in thought.
...
Li Andy, meanwhile, was walking towards the dormitory.
According to the original game flow, Yuquan Youxi was supposed to team up with Sophia to knock him unconscious, then obtain the key to the director's room, and use it to find clues to escape the orphanage.
Now, the key had already been given to Youxi.
Let the protagonist handle the protagonist's affairs; he had more important things to get.
In the game, it was actually impossible to collect everything in a single playthrough. But now with himself as an insider... it seemed it might be possible after all.
"Hmm?"
Li Andy suddenly stopped at a corner of the corridor.
Through the reflection in the glass, he saw a tall, brown-skinned young man, holding a gas lamp in one hand and a long, sharp dagger in the other, searching rooms one by one.
He was incredibly vigilant every time he opened a door, the dagger in his hand reflecting a cold light.
'It's that Old Six!'
Li Andy frowned.
The person in front of him was the director's last minion.
He had no name, yet players remembered him and called him "Old Six."
The other two minions in the game could be dealt with by a sneak attack.
But Old Six couldn't!
He could counter a sneak attack! More Old Six than Old Six!
Imagine, you just thought you understood the gameplay, and then you ran into this guy.
The terrible experience is imaginable.
Li Andy restrained his presence and continued to observe.
Old Six continued his search.
When he reached a certain room in the middle, his nostrils suddenly twitched, as if he smelled something.
He showed a cruel smile, turned off the gas lamp, and crouched down.
One hand gripped the dagger tightly, the other lightly squeezed the doorknob.
However, at that very moment, his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of a figure appearing in the corridor.
"Who?!"
Old Six frowned, realizing it was Li Andy.
The other party stood at the end of the corridor, making a strange gesture at him.
"What does that mean?"
But because of that momentary distraction, the door was suddenly kicked open, and a baseball bat emerged from the darkness, smashing "bang" onto his head.
Old Six swayed, then collapsed to the ground.
Sophia rushed out of the room, holding the baseball bat, pointing it around!
However, besides the unconscious Old Six, there was no one else there.
Sophia frowned, puzzled for two seconds, then hugged the baseball bat and sneakily fled the scene.
Li Andy, in the shadowy corner, couldn't help but curve his lips.
When playing the game, the first-person perspective didn't feel like much, but observing from the side, he realized how comical Sophia's movements were.
That blonde girl had already cut her skirt short for easier movement.
Her long legs were completely exposed to the air, with smooth and even lines, combining the beauty of slenderness with a certain plumpness. Her delicate skin shimmered invitingly.
With just a slightly larger running motion, one could see the hidden fabric.
Li Andy couldn't help but sigh again.
Even if your game is a big mess, as long as the character models and illustrations are good, people will still buy it.
Tsk, what a vulgar market!
