After Gu Yi took Zhong Zhen to the hospital, the doctor's examination confirmed that she was suffering from stress shock and that she would be fine after receiving some nutrient solution and having a good rest.

In the ward, Zhong Zhen was sitting on the bed and shaking constantly.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she would think of the scene of passing by that woman, and then she couldn't help but think of what would have happened to her if she had still been in the swimming pool at that time.

Whenever she imagined herself dying tragically in the swimming pool, she couldn't help but tremble all over.

Just as Zhong Zhen was trembling, he suddenly felt something warm against his face.

"what!!"

This made Zhong Zhen scream and almost bounce up. He looked to the side and saw Gu Yi shaking a cup with a smile.

"I poured you a glass of warm water."

"Gu Yi!"

After seeing that it was Gu Yi who was playing a prank, Zhong Zhen blushed and shouted out in extreme dissatisfaction.

"Sorry, sorry, I wanted you to vent, how about that, do you feel better?"

Gu Yi sat down and said with a wicked smile.

"How can I feel good? I was almost scared to death by you!"

After Zhong Zhen finished speaking in dissatisfaction, he picked up the pillow next to him and hit Gu Yi hard on the head.

But her expression now is much more frightened than before.

"I'm sorry, Zhong Zhen, drink this glass of water. Go to bed early. You're not in a good mental state right now."

There was some concern in Gu Yi's words.

After hearing Gu Yi's words, Zhong Zhen immediately shook his head in resistance.

"No, I'm afraid of dreaming about the body in the swimming pool, and... as soon as I close my eyes, I will think about what would have happened if I was in the swimming pool at that time. I dare not sleep."

The more Zhong Zhen spoke, the more frightened he became. He couldn't help but lower his head, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Then she looked at Gu Yi embarrassedly and asked:

"Gu Yi, do you think I'm useless?"

"Why do you feel that way? Isn't this human nature?"

After hearing this, Gu Yi didn't understand why Zhong Zhen thought so.

"It's normal to be afraid because you're so close to death and you don't know it yet. I understand this very well."

Gu Yi put away his previous playful smile and spoke in a serious tone.

"what?"

After hearing this, Zhong Zhen looked at Gu Yi with some surprise.

"To be honest, when I was fighting Gurongi, I was also afraid of death. I also thought about not going. If I didn't fight, I wouldn't die."

Gu Yi spoke seriously about his past thoughts, and he looked very serious, not just saying it to appease Zhong Zhen.

"After all, I am also a human being. It would be strange if I am not afraid of death."

When Gu Yi said this, he couldn't help but smile at himself and looked at Zhong Zhen.

Zhong Zhen was fascinated by Gu Yi's confession. Gu Yi had fought with Gurongi countless times in the past, and she thought that Gu Yi might not be afraid of anything. But he actually told her that he was also afraid of death, which surprised her.

"But I still fought despite my fear. Just like I said before, I had to fight to prevent those around me from being affected and to prevent myself from regretting it."

"So no matter how scared I am, I will keep fighting and keep improving myself. I want the people I cherish to be alive."

When Gu Yi said this, he showed his usual hearty smile and then looked at Zhong Zhen.

"Including you. You are my friend, so in order to keep you alive, I will fight desperately and get rid of the Gurongi as soon as possible."

"Gu Yi!"

Hearing Gu Yi suddenly say this, Zhong Zhen couldn't help but blushing with shyness.

Fighting to keep her alive, it almost sounded like a confession.

Maybe Gu Yi didn't mean that, but for Zhong Zhen, who was now in fear, it acted like a cardiotonic and made her heart beat faster and difficult to slow down.

"And didn't I give you two disc beasts? I've set them up so that as long as you're in danger, they'll appear to protect you, so don't worry even if I'm not around."

At this time, Gu Yi said this. He still remembered giving Zhong Zhen the optical beast to protect him.

Zhong Zhen was originally immersed in this romance, but Gu Yi's words undoubtedly ruined the atmosphere, forcing her to look at Gu Yi with a reproachful look.

"Gu Yi, then you are not going to come and save me."

Zhong Zhen couldn't help but say with a bit of complaint.

"Of course not. It's just a good thing that Discmon can delay time. I will definitely save you."

Gu Yi quickly added.

Hearing this, Zhong Zhen smiled again.

"That's pretty much it."

After the two chatted and laughed for a while, it was already late, so Gu Yi reminded Zhong Zhen that it was time to rest.

"Gu Yi."

At this time, Zhong Zhen suddenly called Gu Yi.

Gu Yi looked at her suspiciously.

"I'm just afraid I'll have a nightmare. Can you stay with me tonight?"

Zhong Zhen's face turned red as she spoke.

It was the first time that I asked a man to spend the night with me. Even though he was just a bedside companion in the hospital, it felt really weird to say it.

She regretted it the moment she said it and her face turned red.

"Ah, do you want me to stay with you in bed?"

Gu Yi was surprised after hearing this.

"Yeah, after all, now when I close my eyes, I will think about the swimming pool, and when I think about it, I feel like I am in it too."

Zhong Zhen continued talking with gritted teeth, she could hardly control her mouth.

When I talked about the latter part, my face turned so red that it looked like an apple.

I had to lower my head in shame.

He was totally different from the usual decisive and efficient boss.

"Well, if you don't have time."

Zhong Zhen quickly tried to make amends, not wanting to make things too difficult for Gu Yi, but also not wanting to give herself a way out.

"sure."

But before he could finish his words, Gu Yi said this, which made Zhong Zhen look up at Gu Yi in surprise.

"I said I understand your fear, and we are friends, so this little thing is no big deal."

Gu Yi said with a smile.

Looking at Gu Yi's smile, Zhong Zhen suddenly felt very warm in her heart. Her heartbeat accelerated so fast that she couldn't control it. She could hear it clearly with her ears.

I had to hold my chest and lower my head like a little girl.

"Thank you."

Zhong Zhen thanked him quietly, feeling both shy and a little happy.

So after Gu Yi communicated with the nurse, he could stay here to stay with the patient.

In order to make Zhong Zhen feel at ease, Gu Yi simply sat on the bed and slept against the wall.

"That's not good. You can borrow a folding bed."

Zhong Zhen didn't want Gu Yi to be tired from sleeping sitting like this, so she spoke quickly.

"Don't worry, it's okay. It's much easier to sleep here than in Bermuda. What's more, you'll feel safer if I'm close to you, right?"

Gu Yi said with a smile, then asked Zhong Zhen to lie down and covered her with a blanket.

"Okay, stop thinking too much and go to sleep. I want to sleep too."

After Gu Yi finished speaking, he didn't give Zhong Zhen a chance to say anything else. He immediately sat down at the head of her bed, leaning against the wall and fell asleep.

Seeing Gu Yi so close to her, Zhong Zhen blushed again, and then showed a very happy expression.

"What an idiot. He clearly refuses to be in a relationship but he's acting like a boyfriend. Is he doing this on purpose or is he just stupid?"

Zhong Zhen couldn't help but think so in her heart. It was because Gu Yi responded to her needs and helped her in this way that she couldn't give up Gu Yi.

So Zhong Zhen turned on her side to sleep, and then looked at Gu Yi quietly, but unexpectedly, Gu Yi had already started snoring.

I couldn't help feeling helpless.

Then she looked at Gu Yi's hand on the bed, and couldn't help but reach out and gently hold it.

At the same time, she quietly looked at Gu Yi, and after confirming that Gu Yi had not woken up yet, she held Gu Yi's warm hand and fell asleep.

It was strange, because before, whenever she closed her eyes, she would think of the miserable state of the swimming pool, and she even thought she saw herself.

But now she no longer had those hallucinations and slept quite comfortably.

The next day, they were awakened by the ringing of their cell phones.

"Oh, baby, say more sweet words~~"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Zhong Zhen slowly opened his eyes and yawned.

As a result, when I opened my eyes, I saw Gu Yi's head pressed against the head of the bed, very close to me, only a few centimeters away from kissing me.

The hands of Zhong Zhen and Gu Yi fell under the bed at some point, and it looked like they were holding each other's hands tightly.

Seeing Gu Yi's face so close to her, Zhong Zhen, who had just woken up, blushed suddenly.

"Ahhh~~"

At this time, Gu Yi had already heard the ringing of the cell phone and was about to wake up. Zhong Zhen was so scared that she quickly let go of her hand, turned her back and dared not look at Gu Yi.

"Eh? I slipped off the chair?"

Gu Yi looked at himself sitting on the ground and sleeping, feeling helpless.

Then he picked up the phone and found it was An Xin calling, so he answered the call.

"Hello, Mr. An Xin."

"Gu Yi, something happened, and another victim appeared!"

An Xin's serious words forced Gu Yi to cheer up.

"What? Aren't there a lot of armed police on guard near the water?"

Gu Yi was shocked after hearing this.

"Yes, we blocked many swimming pools, bathing centers, hot springs, beaches, water parks, etc., and did not allow people to approach. We let our own people pretend to be tourists in a swimming pool to lure the Gurongi into the trap."

An Xin's words on the other end of the phone were quite serious.

"But what I didn't expect was that the second place she attacked would be a fish farm!"

"what!"

Hearing this, Gu Yi couldn't help but be shocked.

"This morning, many fishmongers and fishermen died tragically by the water in the fish farm. They were bitten in the chest, and then their hearts were affected by ultra-low temperatures and died of cardiac paralysis."

“We were so focused on the amusement park that we didn’t think of this place at all!”

An Xin's tone was very bad. Even if you couldn't see him, you could see that his face was very dark.

"If that's the case, any place with a lot of water needs to be looked at, like waterworks, even sewers."

Gu Yi said with a frown.

It is obvious that this water snake Gurongi knows how to avoid direct conflict with the armed police and will exploit loopholes that no one expected.

"In addition, a second Gurongi murder case has occurred in Jining City, Shandong Province. Hundreds of people have died, and all of them died from strong acid corroding their bodies."

An Xin, who was on the other end of the phone, was in the Gulangji targeted department looking at the death reports sent from Shandong. Every dead person looked extremely miserable, with almost all of their facial features corroded.
