Chapter 12 Bro, Want to Be the Dean?
The director was bewildered by Jiang Xiao's antics and hadn't quite grasped the situation, staring blankly at the nails on the table.
Director: Dumbfounded as fruit on a dumbfounded tree, dumbfounded under the tree you and me!
Probably the first time he's dealt with such a big scene as director for so long, right?
Less than a minute had passed.
The director saw that the holes in Jiang Xiao's body had fully healed.
So, this guy's talent was his formidable regenerative power?
The director breathed a sigh of relief; he had really thought that Jiang Xiao was some kind of a perverted monster just now.
"Forget it, Dr. Jiang Xiao, I'm tired. You can go back to your room now."
"No, I don't think so. I think you could totally spend the whole day playing with me like SpongeBob!"
"Dr. Jiang Xiao, please leave immediately. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you've got strong regenerative capabilities! I'm not some SpongeBob!"
Crack!
The director's resentment was too intense and directly blasted the chandelier to pieces, plunging the room back into darkness.
"What? Director, what did you say? It's too dark here, I can't hear you at all! Can you speak up?"
Director: I just @#￥%&*
Too dark, can't hear...
I feel like the director... he's got it tough, too.
To be honest, the director doesn't seem like a bad guy, at least when the lights are off.
Indeed, it's only been Jiang Xiao who turned on the lights that's been targeted by the director.
The director has become such a sight, naturally, he doesn't want to turn on the lights and expose himself.
At this moment, the director took a deep breath.
Even as a seasoned psychiatric hospital director, Jiang Xiao's level of craziness was explosively impressive.
"Pai Daxing, I think it's time to go to sleep now. What do you think? Maybe you should go back to your room and get a good night's sleep?"
"Oh! Director, you're absolutely right, that's my specialty!"
The director immediately took the opportunity to go along with it.
"Yes, sleep might be a good idea. It's definitely your specialty, no doubt about it."
"Wrong, my specialty is being called Pai Daxing!" Jiang Xiao said with a righteous face.
Director: ...
He couldn't bear it any longer; no more tolerance was necessary!
"Ha, haha... die!!"
Woosh woosh woosh!
Several nails pierced through Jiang Xiao's neck.
Thud!
Jiang Xiao's head fell to the ground, cheekily rolling a few times before stopping.
"Defying my authority as the director over and over, do you really think I'm made of clay!
What good is great regenerative ability, anyway?
I don't believe you can still live without your head!
But he had miscalculated; Jiang Xiao's ability wasn't regeneration, it was.. immortality!
Under the director's shocked gaze.
A new head grew from Jiang Xiao's headless body.
And the head without a body also grew a new lower half!
"Whether you're made of clay is quite complicated."
One Jiang Xiao seriously said while stroking his chin.
"Oh, perhaps you're not. I think you're more like... that's right! You're more like... Mr. Krabs!"
"No, no, it's Boss Hooligan; the director is more like Boss Hooligan!"
The other Jiang Xiao obviously had a different opinion.
"But it doesn't matter, Mr. Krabs. Would you mind telling me where SpongeBob is?"
"You got it wrong! He's Boss Hooligan! Boss Hooligan, just tell me where SpongeBob is, and I'll tell you a secret~"
"Oh no! You can't do that, you can't tell the Boss Hooligan about the secret recipe for the delicious crab pot!"
"You said, he's Mr. Krabs, not Boss Hooligan."
"Maybe so, but I still disagree, SpongeBob would be mad!"
"Actually, the secret I wanted to tell Boss Hooligan is how boogers are made."
"I don't think Mr. Krabs would want to know the secret you're talking about."
"No, he's Boss Hooligan! I think he would definitely want to know!"
"Mr. Krabs, please figure out a way to prove who you really are."
"Boss Hooligan, tell him! Who are you really!"
One Jiang Xiao handed the nails back to the stupefied director.
The director, not knowing what to do, sat on the chair holding the nails.
"Director, you've got to hold on to it! Grab it hard, really hard!"
Madman!
This Jiang Xiao is an immortal madman, he's insane!
'DuangDuangDuang!'
The director, nearly deranged, grabbed the steel nails from the table and banged, banged, banged himself back onto the chair.
I'm done playing with you guys!
Nailing oneself up is actually quite comfortable.
"Mr. Krabs, since... since the exam is about ranking, why doesn't everyone just turn in a blank paper?"
Oh my god, what kind of thought process does it take to come up with a question like that?
"Please, let Boss Thug or Mr. Krabs go to sleep! As you can see, I'm willing to give up this director's position!"
[I want to change the channel, my brain is so messy.]
[The director is so tormented he's even willing to give up his position.]
[Without having a stroke for thirty years, one would completely fail to understand what Jiang Xiao is saying.]
[Remember! Don't try to make sense of a madman's words unless you want to become him.]
[But I feel like what he said makes a tiny bit of sense...]
[If everyone scores zero on the college entrance exam, wouldn't we all get into university? Saving us from over a decade of studying in the cold!]
[This idea is indeed brilliant! Hard to imagine it comes from a madman.]
[Guys, let's change the channel, I'd rather watch Dr. Wobuju's deductions...]
When they saw Jiang Xiao finally willing to let the director leave.
They immediately changed the channel!
If they watched any longer, they'd truly become insane.
...
At this moment, Wobuju's nerves were still tightly wound, cold sweat soaked the floor.
That eerie 'thud thud' sound didn't leave, it kept knocking on his door sporadically.
'THUD!!'
Seemingly infuriated, the last knock was particularly loud!
After that, the 'thud thud' sounds seemed impatient and gradually grew distant...
"Huff~ Huff~"
Wobuju took deep breaths of air, the oppressive feeling just now almost caused his nerves to collapse.
'Thud Thud Thud~'
Fucking hell, it's back again!
Wobuju, who had just relaxed, tensed up once more!
"Dr. Wobuju, we should go and do the rounds," the person knocking on the door said,
Oh, it's just the guard.
To ensure safety, Wobuju asked the person outside a few more questions before carefully opening the door a crack.
Only after being certain, did he go out and join the guard to do the rounds.
"By the way, did you hear a 'thud thud thud' knocking sound just now?"
Knocking sound?
The guard looked at Wobuju with suspicion.
"I've been in the corridor the whole time and didn't hear anything."
Hmm?
Could it be a hallucination related to mental health?
Wobuju turned to look at his own door, which clearly had blood-red marks on it!
Not only that, it was also covered with numerous chaotic scratches!
"Let's go, Dr. Wobuju. Finish the rounds and go to sleep."
Seeing that the guard didn't want to talk more, Wobuju suppressed his curiosity, planning to see if the rounds could provide some clues.
He opened Wang Xiao'ai's room.
She was sleeping soundly, so deep in slumber that even the noise of the rounds didn't wake her.
But the meticulous Wobuju was still skeptical.
Could it be that she's pretending to sleep?
After all, neither the sound of opening the door nor the rounds were quiet, and they didn't wake her up?
He opened Wang Hai's room.
The latter hadn't gone to bed yet and seemed like he was just about to sleep.
Wang Hai was accustomed to the rounds and didn't show any flaw.
Not in bed?
Could it be Wang Hai?
After knocking, he went straight back to his own room, but why did the guard say he didn't see anything?
Finally, he entered Bai Liu's room.
She was still beautiful and made tea for the visiting guard and Wobuju.
She sat to one side and began reading a book.
As the aroma of the tea wafted out, Bai Liu, with her eyebrows furrowed, said,
"Strange, I thought I heard a 'thud thud thud' knocking sound just now. It went on for quite a while."
