Creepy Pharmacist: All my patients are scary!

Chapter 151: Don’t Rob Them While You’re at It

And as if having noticed him, that "person" stopped, staring directly in his direction.

He was breathing heavily, terror nearly overflowing from his eyes.

Alternate dimension!

He had truly stepped into an alternate dimension!

How could this be?!

How did he end up in such a terrifying world!

Could there really be no living people here?!

After running for a long time, he finally stopped due to exhaustion, bending over while gasping for air and dry heaving.

Large drops of sweat pattered down from his forehead onto the ground.

But it seemed.Those two monsters probably hadn't followed him...

Pat-pat—

Suddenly, footsteps sounded one after another from ahead of him.

His body instantly stiffened.

And in the next moment, he saw a pair of little girl's red cloth shoes stop on the ground in front of him.

Something was standing right before him at this very moment.

He didn't dare look up.

His clothes were almost completely soaked through.

But he finally forced himself to endure the fear, slowly raising his head to look at the figure standing before him.

In an instant, he clearly saw the person in front of him.

It seemed to be a six or seven-year-old girl, wearing tattered clothes, holding a doll with obvious stitching marks on its arms in her embrace, with a bright smile on her face.

But horrifyingly, one of her eye sockets was actually bloody and completely hollow.

He trembled so violently he nearly wet his pants.

"Big brother!"

The little girl carefully stood on tiptoe, licked her rosy lips, and said with a giggle:

"How come you have two heads too?"

Bai Yi froze.

Two heads?

What... what was she saying, he clearly only had one head...

And it was at this moment that he suddenly realized, ever since earlier, he had been feeling like his body's center of gravity was somewhat unstable, as if he were carrying something on his back.

He subconsciously turned his head to look over his left shoulder.

In an instant.

Four eyes met.

His eyes nearly came face-to-face with a woman's head at close range.

Buzz—

His eyes went vacant.

Because he recognized that head—it was the woman he had encountered earlier.

And now, her head was growing from his shoulder, which was why he had felt off-balance the entire way.

So...

She had been following him all along...

Splash—

The pure white masked face opened its mouth, large amounts of blood gushing out from between her lips, her smile exceptionally brilliant.

"Were you hiding from me?"

"Ahhh!!!"

An extremely shrill scream.

Bai Yi practically crawled and scrambled forward, weeping and wailing as he fled in a panicked rush.

And from behind continuously came the little girl's giggling laughter.

"Big brother, oh, don't be afraid! Two heads are really great! From now on you'll have company! Good friends, oh, good friends!"

The Blood Doll hopped and skipped while holding her doll, hovering around Bai Yi like a ghost, neither too close nor too far, the bells on her feet emitting crisp ringing sounds.

Crack—

A bolt of lightning split through the thick black fog.

Bai Yi gasped heavily, suddenly rushing to the end of the street, lifting his head as his terrified eyes reflected an enormous castle.

Strangely, the head that had just been on his shoulder and the laughter of the doll behind him suddenly vanished all at once.

And the words on that massive ancient castle were reflected in his eyes.

He didn't recognize those characters.

But for some reason, he could understand their meaning.

[Happy Home]

Creak—

The sound of a door opening.

The decaying main gate of the castle slowly swung open automatically before him.

Like an invitation.

A mysterious calling.

He murmured, his legs as if controlled by some mysterious force, involuntarily beginning to move.

"Welcome..."

...

Several days later.

Bloodsaw Potion Shop.

[Ding! Your "Chainsaw Laparotomy" has reached Beginner Tier! You obtained 100 basic experience!]

[Ding! Your "Dissection Skill" has reached Beginner Tier! You obtained 100 basic experience!]

Accompanied by the continuous system prompts ringing in his ears.

Lynn, now wearing a white coat with a chainsaw strapped to his back, Night Demon surgical knives at his waist, and a monocle on his face, stood calmly at the door, bidding farewell to his teacher.

"Go ahead!"

Bloodsaw cracked his robust biceps, saying solemnly:

"A real doctor can't rely on theory alone! Only practical experience can demonstrate your value as a physician!"

"Your teacher has already accepted a house call order for you in the Sight, with a deposit of 500 Skeleton Coins! If you complete this task perfectly, the client will pay the remaining 1,500 coins! Do you have confidence in earning this consultation fee?"

Lynn adjusted his monocle with a determined gaze, saying:

"Yes! And not just confidence, but plenty of it!"

Bloodsaw looked at him deeply, asking: "How much confidence?!"

Lynn held his knife calmly, stating: "I guarantee I'll bring back fifteen thousand coins for you, Master!"

"..."

A gentle breeze rustled fallen leaves, blowing between the two men.

"Um... that..."

Bloodsaw wiped cold sweat from his forehead, patting Lynn's shoulder meaningfully while sweating profusely: "Your teacher was just motivating you earlier, trying to boost your morale, but you really shouldn't actually rob the patient after curing them, that's not good. Just take what you rightfully earn!"

"Although this is the Dark World, business should still be sustained steadily—you can't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs, understand?"

Lynn nodded, adjusting his monocle seriously:

"Understood! Teacher! Just wait for my good news!"

That utterly wicked fighting spirit was overflowing all of a sudden!

Bloodsaw looked thoroughly pleased.

It was like watching his foolish son finally make something of himself and venture out to work independently.

That feeling really wasn't something ordinary people could comprehend.

"Go on!" Bloodsaw wiped his moist eyes, saying: "Take the order—it's on Soul-Severance Street right next to us. If you can't find the location, remember to ask for directions. You're not that weak waste from two years ago anymore, show some courage, understand?"

"After completing this mission, you can start looking for the Night Doctors everywhere!"

Lynn's eyes also moistened, saying: "Yes! Teacher! Take care of yourself too! Be sure to drink more of the tea I brewed for you—it's good for your kidneys, helps with wear and tear."

Bloodsaw said contentedly: "Go on! Go on! Your teacher will be waiting here for you!"

Lynn nodded vigorously, then with one hand carrying his medical kit and the other shouldering his knife, turned and strode out of Wandering Souls Alley.

This was truly his first time leaving Wandering Souls Alley alone.

To be honest.

He still felt a little scared inside.

After all, in this world full of evil spirits, ghosts, puppets, and demons, as a normal human being, no matter how he thought about it, it was hard not to feel apprehensive.

He still needed to be careful.

And not get scared.
