"What the hell are you doing? You're insane! No nurse acts like you!" The male doctor shot up, as if he had seen a ghost, and stormed out, grumbling.
The surrounding patients all looked over. I deliberately tilted my chin up and snorted proudly.
Sigh! It's so hard to pretend to be a woman! Even harder to pretend to be a beautiful woman!
But it was because Kelly was attractive that I couldn't deceive Croft out otherwise.
This is so difficult!
I really want to arrest Croft quickly and go back to my old self.
I waited again, but Croft still didn't appear. Fear began to creep into my heart. Had Croft seen through me?
Had he never intended to come, just to trick me?
The more I thought about it, the more nervous I became. Just as I was about to stand up, someone tapped my shoulder from behind. I had thought it was someone trying to hit on me. Turning around, I saw He Qing—no, it was Croft's familiar face again. I was actually a little excited, even though I knew this person wasn't He Qing!
"Sister, it's me!"
Hearing his address change, my heart sank even further.
But I didn't have time to dwell on that. The mission was about to be completed.
I said naturally, "Croft, it's finally good to see you again. Let's go to the rooftop to talk!"
Croft didn't seem suspicious and followed me into the elevator. Quite a few patients were in the elevator. As we ascended to the rooftop, we slowly stepped out.
I chose the rooftop because I didn't want to harm any hospital staff if a conflict arose. On the way up, I had discreetly pressed my bracelet, sending He Xin a message, informing them that the fugitive Croft was at Central Hospital. This information had been pre-edited, and I had simply pressed the bracelet to send it.
Reaching the top, I said to Croft, "It's been so long since we watched the sunset from afar. I can't believe another day has passed so quickly!"
"Yes, sister. If you hadn't saved me back then, I wouldn't be who I am today!"
"It's all in the past. Aren't we doing well now? The plan was a success. Look, the hospital is full of patients now!"
"I know. Actually, how did you discover me back then?"
Was he trying to test me?
I wasn't Kelly, so how could I possibly know what had happened between her and Croft? I intended to bluster my way through, but Croft suddenly lunged at me, roaring from behind, "You're not Kelly!! Who are you? Why did you trick me into coming here!"
"No, Croft, what are you talking about? I'm your sister!"
"Shut up! My sister never calls me by my name! Croft! She always calls me 'Little Ke'. Do you know? You revealed yourself the moment you spoke!"
"You..."
"Croft! Give it up. Don't think you can get away with it a second time. I won't let you go!"
As my voice shifted, Croft recognized it. "So it was you. You must know about He Qing's situation, right? That's right, I killed him, and his girlfriend too! Their ashes are hidden in the quicksand he used to use!!"
"You demon!"
"Hahahaha!! I'm so sorry you felt betrayed by your own brother, weren't you upset? But today, I will send you into the abyss once more. I will throw you off the building, and then I will flee. Your death will become a fact. Last time, I knew it was a trick. I don't know how you made my sister submit, but now I will change that!"
"Croft, you can't escape. The SWAT and armed police are arriving soon. Any sniper can blow your head off. Do you know that, you shameless, overestimating devil!"
"Ahahahahaha! You're quite fast at reporting. Since I've escaped so many times, I won't be captured this time. I will never become a prisoner!"
"You're already a prisoner, you're just lucky you haven't been brought to justice yet. But this time is different! Look at this!"
Croft thought he had me held hostage, but he didn't realize the special spikes from my bracelet had already pierced his arm that was around me!
Ahahahaha—!!!
A piercing scream echoed throughout the entire hospital. At that moment, some medical staff started to approach. Seeing the scene on the rooftop, I yelled, "Don't come closer! Get out!"
They scattered in terror and left immediately. I twisted around and pinned Croft. His arm was bleeding profusely, and he was struggling with all his might. I thought I had him, but he bit his tongue. I thought he was going to commit suicide, but the next second, he seemed to have drunk something, and his skin began to transform!
Ichthyosis!!
I instantly let go. Croft recoiled several steps. As his skin was completely eroded, his eyes turned blood-red. He clenched his fists, a sharp chain appearing in his hand. He swung it directly at me!
I dodged to the side with all my might. The chain hit the floor beside me, creating a massive crack. Witnessing this level of damage, I was stunned speechless.
The destructive power was truly astonishing.
I narrowly avoided a blow, then, with astonishing speed, shed my nurse uniform and high heels. To hell with these things, they were hindering my movement! I immediately launched a flying kick, hitting him in the neck!
Croft grabbed my leg with force and yanked it away. He then grabbed my foot and smashed it violently against the ground. I kicked up my other leg, clamping it around his neck, and using my hands to push off, I headbutted him with incredible speed!
Bang!
With a loud bang, both of us were dazed for a moment. Seizing the opportunity, we forcefully separated. I rolled on the ground several times. He, too, used his strength, ripping a pipe from a nearby pure water tank and wielding it, swinging it at me!
I retreated quickly. Fortunately, my police baton was still with me. I grabbed it and counterattacked. The two batons collided, but my arm went numb. The next second, Croft's chain had wrapped around my left wrist, dragging me up.
He dragged me around like trash. Hitting him with the police baton had no effect. His strength far exceeded my limits, especially after he transformed with ichthyosis.
I realized then that people with this condition had greater strength and could easily infect others.
Having had so much contact with him, I had likely been infected, but there was no other option. My only thought now was to subdue him.
I had to avenge He Qing and his girlfriend. Although I knew I shouldn't think this way, for their sake, I had to arrest him myself!
We continued to grapple. Although I was being dragged, I deliberately used this to my advantage, lunging at Croft, twisting his head, and smashing it onto the ground with all my might. Not satisfied, I dragged him to the adjacent water tank and slammed him onto the metal plate above.
However, his head seemed to be made of steel. He appeared unharmed. He headbutted me, almost knocking me to the ground. My forehead was already red and swollen.
I crawled on the ground for a moment. I didn't know how it happened, but something appeared in my hand, and I sprayed it onto Croft's face!
Cassia chili oil spray!
He was caught off guard and sprayed. His face, already covered in scales, began to rot. Seizing the opportunity, I struck the chain again with my police baton. A jolt of electricity instantly passed through, and Croft screamed. He clenched the chain tightly. To avoid electrocution, he pulled a sharp blade from his left hand and severed the chain!
The chain was now in my hand. I swung it hard at him. Croft blocked with the blade, but his body still twitched slightly.
I quickly drew my gun and fired a shot at his shoulder. His weapon fell. He tried to lunge at me again, but after his left leg was also shot, he collapsed to his knees!
Then another shot rang out. Croft, who had lost his weapon, now had his mobility taken away. At the same time, Liu Yuning arrived with the police. I quickly raised my hand and shouted, "It's me! He Sheng!"
Seeing my appearance, everyone couldn't believe it. Zhang Keying, Xiahou, and others thought their eyes were deceiving them. I gave a wry smile and began to explain, recounting my previous disguise and the events at the factory.
After an unknown period, Croft was taken back. My mission was complete upon my return to the provincial headquarters. This period had not been short. Learning that a nest of the Polaris organization was located in a certain factory, Liu Yuning and Li Fan began to plan its capture. I, having regained my identity, said, "There are many organization members there. Although Kelly has been subdued, they won't surrender. I have a plan. They don't know Croft has been arrested yet. I can still infiltrate as Kelly, and then..."
"This plan is feasible, but it's too dangerous, He Sheng. Can't someone else go this time?" Liu Yuning said, concerned.
