Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Just a Bit Too Hard on People

"Last time you helped me, this time I’m helping you. We’re even now, so you don’t need to thank me."

Lin Yufei frowned, rubbing her stomach while waving her hand and turning to leave, picking up the fruit knife Su Xin had thrown on the ground in passing.

Su Xin stood where he was, not chasing after her, because he really didn’t have much strength left, and he didn’t know how to persuade her.

At this moment.

He saw a middle-aged man walk up to Lin Yufei, say something impatiently, then take the fruit knife from her hand, ask her to remove her apron, and finally hand her a hundred yuan bill, waving his hand before turning and leaving.

Lin Yufei stood still for a moment, then turned and walked in another direction.

Su Xin opened his mouth, wanting to call out to her, but ultimately did not speak.

He had just realized that there were only a few minutes left until his time of death, and the best choice now was to find a place to sit quietly. As for Lin Yufei losing her job for saving him, he could only make up for it later.

Turning around, Su Xin was just about to walk forward, but a sharp pain in his stomach made him gasp, and the strength he had gathered dissipated. His body weakened, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Hiss!"

"It hurts like hell!"

Su Xin grimaced in pain.

Having been punched and kicked by several adults, his body was indeed seriously injured. Not only were there multiple red and swollen bruises, but his internal organs also felt displaced, and there was a constant throbbing and stabbing pain in his stomach.

However, when he thought of the fight just now, and the image of him headbutting someone so hard that their nose bled, for some reason, he felt a rush of excitement in his heart.

"This kind of hand-to-hand combat, I must say, is really stress-relieving and satisfying!"

"Just a bit exhausting."

Su Xin barely managed to stand upright again, forcing himself to take a few more steps despite the severe pain. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

At this moment, a slender hand suddenly reached out to support his arm.

"Hmm?"

Su Xin turned his head to look.

The person supporting him was Lin Yufei.

"Seeing your condition, going to the hospital alone might be troublesome. Let me take you."

"No need, I’ll just apply some medicine at home."

"Like you said, if you help someone, see it through to the end. You took me to the clinic last time, so this time I’ll take you to the hospital. You don’t owe me anything."

"Really, I’m actually fine."

Su Xin waved his hand, forcing a smile on his bloodstained face, but accidentally pulled on the wound on his right cheek, grimacing in pain.

Lin Yufei quietly watched him.

Su Xin said, "How about this, we’ll go together, but you should also see a doctor, get checked out, okay?"

Lin Yufei hesitated for a moment, recalling that she had been kicked in the back of the head by one of the thugs earlier, and it still throbbed with pain. She was worried about any internal injuries or lingering health issues.

It’s better to get checked.

There’s no need to delay taking care of her health out of politeness.

After all, she knew Su Xin wasn’t short on money.

"Alright!"

Lin Yufei nodded.

The two soon hailed a cab and headed to a hospital a few kilometers away.

"You seem to be having trouble moving, rest for a bit, and I’ll call you when we get there."

"Hmm!"

Su Xin nodded slightly.

The countdown to his death continued to tick in his mind, reminding him of the end of this life.

As time hit zero.

Su Xin’s breathing stopped, his head tilted, and his hand silently slipped from his thigh.

Lin Yufei had already noticed Su Xin’s odd state, and seeing this scene now, she was shocked. She quickly reached out to check Su Xin’s breath.

But just as she put her hand there, Su Xin suddenly opened his eyes again, his warm breath naturally blowing over her fingers.

"What’s wrong?"

Su Xin blinked, pretending not to know, and asked curiously.

Lin Yufei looked embarrassed.

She had suspected something was wrong just because he was napping and went to check his breath. Saying that out loud was really impolite.

She could only say:

"Nothing, I was just seeing if you were asleep."

"Took a nap, feeling much better."

He had literally closed his eyes for just a second, and now he felt much better?

Of course, Lin Yufei didn’t voice this thought. She usually didn’t like talking to people much, so seeing that Su Xin was okay, she sat back and turned to look out the window.

Su Xin stretched, took a deep breath, and took out his phone to check the news.

When he had just revived, his injuries were completely healed, even the bruises on his face had faded, though covered by the blood stains, so it wasn’t immediately noticeable.

"So many people died in last night’s event, and yet there’s still no news coverage, just hidden under car crashes and fires. Looks like it was suppressed."

"I wonder what the Nirvana Association and the conglomerates are planning next."

He casually browsed the news, finding nothing noteworthy, so Su Xin opened his task panel to take a look.

"Empathy: Make the specified ten individuals experience the same emotions as you."

"Current progress: 6/10."

"Still four more to go, looks like I need to fight at least one more round; if things don’t go well, maybe even two rounds to complete it."

"Out of those five people just now, only four met the target. Was one of them not angry? Or what could the reason be?"

Su Xin began to review the chaos of the fight.

It started with both sides provoking each other, leading to a fight, where he headbutted one opponent and was then pinned down and kicked hard. He felt his rage building and immediately set his task targets on the opponent.

After a while of wrestling, causing injuries to a few others, the system prompt of task progress finally began to appear in his mind.

"Strange, those people should have been angry from the start. Why did the task progress start showing only later?"

"Also, those people were more or less attacked, but in the end, there was still one person who didn’t fulfill the task progress. Is it possible that person’s mindset was so good? Not even angry when beaten?"

Su Xin thought for a while, quickly turning his attention back to the task itself——

The task of "Empathy" required making the specified targets ’become’ the same emotions as him. The core was about emotions.

But the word ’become’ was definitely critical too.

The targets must transition from other emotions to the same ones as his.

If the opponent was always angry, it clearly couldn’t be called ’becoming’ angry.

If they had shown other emotions before Su Xin got angry, and only got angry after Su Xin set the task, then it was considered ’becoming’ the same emotion.

At the start, they may have been angry, but after causing one of them to suffer a serious head injury with two headbutts, the others didn’t suffer heavy attacks.

Perhaps because of this, as they beat him, their wrath quickly dissipated, replaced by other emotions, or perhaps they were not truly angry from the beginning.

Only when he became furious himself, set the targets on them, and struggled to fight back with spit, scratching, a right hook, and a series of attacks did those three also get angry.

Su Xin vaguely remembered the task prompt sounded right around that time.
