Chapter 1400: Chapter 1400 – Conversation
Shen Xixi opened her eyes and found herself lying on a bed in a small clinic. The rabbit was lying next to her bed and had fallen asleep. However, her eyes were red. It was obvious that she had just cried not long ago.
Meanwhile, Li Bai was reading novels on his phone. When he heard the movement from the hospital bed, he raised his head and saw Shen Xixi trying to prop herself up. He was pleasantly surprised. “Sister Xixi, you’re awake!”
Shen xixi nodded slightly and lowered her head to check where she had been stabbed, but she did not find any wounds on her body.
Li Bai seemed to know what she was thinking and said, “After you fainted, rabbit and I rushed to the master bedroom immediately. The situation at that time was too dangerous. We saw that crazy woman riding on you, but before she could do anything, rabbit and I subdued her.”
“What about the needle in my hand?”
“You didn’t wake up, so the Doctor gave you an IV drip.”
Rabbit was also woken up by the voices of the two people. She rubbed her eyes and saw that Shen Xixi could not help but cry again. Then, she plunged into Shen Xixi’s arms.
Shen Xixi stroked her hair and said, “Sorry to make you worry. By the way, that group of people…”
“I did as you taught me. I asked the three people in the room to tell me what they had done. Then, I threw them and the video at the entrance of the police station. As for the others, I used the identity of a police officer to educate them. I didn’t allow them to participate in similar activities and clubs. After that, I let them go home.”
“Well done,”Shen Xixi praised. Then, she pulled out the needle in her hand and pressed the eye of the needle with her other hand, “Let’s go. After all, we are impersonating the police. Maybe the police are already looking for us. Don’t stay in this city any longer.”

“Shenzhen. There have been continuous deaths of employees in the Fukang Group. I suspect that there are similar clubs there,”Shen Xixi said as she put on her sports shoes.
However, when she stood up, she realized that rabbit and Li Bai had not moved.
“Why? Do you have any questions?”Shen Xixi asked.
Rabbit and Li Bai looked at each other, then finally mustered up the courage to say, “Sister Xixi, in fact, we have wanted to talk to you for a long time.”
“You have something you want to talk to me about? Okay, then let’s go back to the car and talk while we’re on the road.”Shen Xixi did not seem to take rabbit’s request to heart, she had always played the role of a leader in the team, and the decisions she made, whether it was rabbit or Li Bai, had never been questioned.
Sometimes when the three of them were together, it did not seem like a player’s team, but more like an older sister with a younger sister and younger brother.
However, what she did not expect was that the usually obedient rabbit actually raised an objection for the first time. “No, we don’t want to talk in the car.”
Shen Xixi was stunned when she heard that. She turned around and looked at rabbit and Li Bai again. She finally realized that the two of them were serious this time.
She nodded and said, “I understand, but this is not a place to talk. Let’s go out first.”
“No problem.”Rabbit and Li Bai were relieved when they saw that Shen Xixi finally agreed.
Because it was already very late, most of the cafes and restaurants had already closed. The three of them finally found an internet cafe that was open 24 hours a day and asked for a private room.
The receptionist also gave them an extra fruit plate. When the waiter left the card room, rabbit said again, “Sister Xixi, Li Bai and I feel that we can’t go on like this.”

“What do you mean by going on like this?”
“I mean continuing to pursue these things related to that guy. We know that you’ve been feeling guilty because of your decision that day, but no matter how hard you try to make up for it, you can’t change what happened.”
“So, should I just pretend that nothing happened?”Shen Xixi asked.
“No, that’s not what I mean. I, I want to say…”for the first time, the rabbit seemed a little nervous when he questioned Shen Xixi, and he stuttered when he was ready to say something.
“We want to say that what you’re doing now is useless except for torturing yourself,”Li Bai suddenly continued, “There’s no end to these clubs. Even the police can’t do anything about it. The three of us have been running back and forth for more than a month. We’ve only killed a dozen of them during the day and at night. Compared to the total number, it’s not even worth mentioning. Besides, you know that these believers can’t stay in the police station for more than a few days. They can even go home swaggeringly after writing a pledge a few hours later.
“As for the ordinary people you let go, they may be fine now, but as time goes by, they will eventually become like the people who were caught. With your intelligence, it’s impossible for you to ignore these things. However, up until now, you haven’t even mentioned it. Is it because you can’t solve it?”
Shen Xixi opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Bai, “Let me finish. Sister Xixi, usually you point east and I Never Go West. Didn’t you always wish that I could think more? It’s rare that I’ve thought so much this time.”
“You must think that we don’t want to continue because we can’t see Hope and are afraid of suffering. But that’s not the case. The reason why we really feel that we can’t continue like this is because of you.”
“That’s right, we all know… the characteristics of the lord of lalye. The more things you come into contact with that are related to him, the greater the pollution on your mind. Using the more popular board game concept from before, it’s that… the faster the value drops.”
“San Value,”rabbit added softly.
“Yes, si value. We were all there when he landed in that small valley that night. We have been tracking the clubs that worship him for more than a month, especially you. As the leader of the team and the brain, you have been collecting and studying relevant information. Your spirit has reached its limit. This is also the reason why you suddenly fainted in your bedroom this afternoon. Tell us honestly, Sister Xixi, have you been having nightmares recently?”
“No,”Shen Xixi answered quickly, as if she hadn’t thought about it at all.
Li Bai stared into Shen Xixi’s eyes, trying to figure out what was going on. However, this was not something he was good at, so he had to give up in the end and continue to persuade her, “Stop, Sister Xixi, before it’s too late.”
“But it’s already too late,”Shen Xixi said. “You’re right about one thing. If this goes on, everyone will soon become that guy’s follower.”
