I didn't mean to offend——\" Xiaoyun interrupted him before he could finish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's fine. Can I ask how to get the Requested Document?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Um, I think the head of the police department or the judge can give the requested document. At least that's on the signature of all the requested documents I had seen today.\" The receptionist replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see... I'll be back with the Request Document.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need, Mr.Mayor. Mrs. Xiaoqi sent a document a few days ago reminding everyone that the Mayor doesn't need ID or authorization to enter something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, that's nice of her to do. Probably someone told her about me being blocked outside the intelligence department.\" Xiaoyun thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's great. Can you bring me to Tianci?\" Xiaoyun requested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, just follow me.\" The receptionist replied as he pulled out his key chain from the drawer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking past almost the whole prison, the two finally stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're Tianci?\" The receptionist asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no response from the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun looked inside the cell and noticed Tianci curling into a ball in the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does this happen a lot?\" Xiaoyun curiously asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Um, most of the inmates in the prison were mostly energetic. But today, they all seem dead silent.\" The receptionist replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Probably has to do with the prison sentence... Can you open the prison cell? I want to talk to her in private.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The receptionist opened up the prison cell and then left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tianci, it's me, Xiaoyun. Are you okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun walked up a little closer, he saw Tianci shivering in the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tianci... I can still get you out of here if you want. You don't have to stay here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoyun... can you... can you end it for me?\" Tianci's voice quivered, its weakness painfully evident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm afraid I can't do that... Why do you want to end it?\" Xiaoyun decided to ask as the question had floated inside his head for quite a while now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianci finally turned around and faced Xiaoyun face to face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm a mass murderer. I killed everyone that loved me. I don't deserve to live. Please, end me for my sake.\" Tianci begged as she stared Xiaoyun in the eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun could see a little bloodshot in her eyes, which hadn't been there during the trial earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tianci, your eyes?...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianci immediately turned around and hid her face as she curled back into a ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there something wrong? Please, tell me so I can help you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianci sat silently, refusing to answer Xiaoyun's question or accept his help. But Xiaoyun didn't back off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he chose to sit beside her and waited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting for who knows how long, Tianci finally spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I can't control myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Control yourself? What do you mean by that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianci fell back into silence, her mind seeming preoccupied until she decided to speak up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I sometimes just lost complete control over my body. I never wanted to hurt them, but I couldn't do anything. All I can do is watch...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Watch? Like a ghost possessing your body?\" Xiaoyun suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know. I-It's like I'm watching a movie... and the main character is me doing experiments on other people... Please, just kill me. There's something wrong with me. I don't want to live like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Tianci replied, her emotions seemed to start deteriorating again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tianci, I'm not going to do that... You shouldn't be so harsh on yourself if you didn't do this. Tell me, when did you start having this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Tianci responded much faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know... all I can remember is when teacher Lizhen——\" Before Tianci could finish, her body started shaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tianci? Are you there? Let me go get the doctor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Xiaoyun was about to stand up, Tianci suddenly lunged toward Xiaoyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun was pushed to the ground with Tianci on top of him. With no choice, Xiaoyun pushed Tianci to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Tianci fell back to the ground, Xiaoyun noticed the change in her eyes as he got back up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes were completely blood red, and her iris turned black to dark red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Say Xiaoyun if you are still Tianci.\" Xiaoyun created a wooden one in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, Tianci didn't say anything but slowly walked toward Xiaoyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay back, whoever you are. I don't want to hurt you, but if I have to, I will.\" Xiaoyun warned as he raised the wooden stick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Xiaoyun was about to knock out Tianci with a stick, the redness in her eyes started disappearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a quick reaction, Xiaoyun catches Tianci before she falls onto the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tianci, are you there?\" XIaoyun asked as he laid Tianci down on the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianci seems frozen as she doesn't respond to any word he says, but her breathing and eyes slowly turning back to normal give hope to Xiaoyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I'm so sorry... I——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's okay. It's not your fault.\" Xiaoyun gently patted Tianci's back as she suddenly started crying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't want to be like this... I just want to be normal.\" Tianci slowly calmed down a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, I might have a solution for this.\" Xiaoyun considered an ability he hadn't used for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? You aren't lying to me?\" Tianci's voice doubted Xiaoyun's suggestion, but her face looked as if she wished it to be true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, as long as I touch you when you are normal and when you suddenly change to the other person, I can revert you to the real Tianci,\" XIaoyun explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? What do you mean reverting?\" Tianci asked as she got a little confused by Xiaoyun's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just watch.\" Xiaoyun creates a scissor in his hand and then cuts Tianci's hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing? Why are you... how did my hair grow back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianci was shocked as her hair instantly regrowed back despite Xiaoyun cutting it a few seconds ago. Her old hair was still on the floor, with the exact look and everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You believe me now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... believe you now. But why do you want to help me so much? I don't have anything to give back to you.\" Tianci asked as her tone was finally more hopeful than being full of negativity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seeing a brave woman stand for what's right and willing to risk their life to save others. What I said in the trial was the truth about how I felt. You do deserve a second chance...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On top of that... I was a little curious why a woman like you would willingly pull a gun and shoot themselves without a second thought, not to mention asking for the death penalty in a court.\" Xiaoyun thought for a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come with me. If you stay in this prison, your condition is only going to get worse. Nobody can help you in here.\" Xiaoyun lifted Tianci without asking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I can walk myself.\" Tianci's face started blushing as she tried to make Xiaoyun drop her back down, but Xiaoyun ignored Tianci's request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're a patient from now on. You don't get to choose.\" Xiaoyun replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Tianci's face changed as if she took it seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, okay, I'm just joking.\" Xiaoyun puts Tianci back to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The receptionist didn't ask questions as Xiaoyun supported Tianci out of prison and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two walked back home just as the sun was about to set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun knocked on the door and waited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey honey, welcome back... who's this?\" Leyan noticed the women that Xiaoyun was supporting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She's a medical patient that I have to take care of. She'll stay until I can find a more permanent solution.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Medical patient? When did you become a doctor?\" Leyan curiously asked as she closed the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You forgot my ability?\" Xiaoyun replied as he supported Tianci to the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right, but what's the issue that she has? She seems fine to me.\" Leyan couldn't tell anything off about Tianci.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I can't control myself.\" Tianci nervously replied to Leyan's question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Control?\" Leyan got a little confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, control. Tianci can't control her body when the other Tianci takes over her body,\" Xiaoyun explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Like a split personality disorder? But when did your ability cure mental problems? And have you seen her before to use your ability?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I would say it's pretty similar, except her eyes get all red. And there's a reason why I said a temporary solution. I think I can try to revert her to where she hasn't become a different person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All red? That doesn't seem right. That's an odd condition for split personality.\" Leyan couldn't draw any relationship between the two with her medical experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, which is why I think it's something to do with her being used as a test subject for her teacher. Anyway, she's going to live here for now.\" Xiaoyun stretched out his arm to relax.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure, we have many rooms at the house now anyway... But you're going to need to convince those two.\" Leyan pushed the responsibility to Xiaoyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They'll understand.\" Xiaoyun didn't think much of it.\u003C\u002Fp>",1518,"2026-06-10T06:59:31.432Z",1,"novelbin.me","78a3cf1b93fe9f0907873b244a48610f04e15f0a95ea22511fd023494cee05c0","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-164","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-162",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
