He had a primal urge he couldn’t control. He was a killer with a nickname called the Rainy Frog. His first victim was the doctor who diagnosed him with a sexual repressive problem. He still remembered that night clearly.

It was a rainy night. The female doctor got out of the car alone. She was so captivating under the umbrella, walking under the streetlights. Her figure looked so alluring. Ever since then, she would always appear when he committed his deranged murders.

He thought that he was strong, both mentally and physically… Until he met the man before him, Zhen Jianren.

His target back then was an intern at a famous law firm. She was youthful and pretty. She had a hint of ice-cold beauty about her.

After Luo Yi put on his disguise, he created an opening by asking her for directions. Through their conversations, he found that feeling again. After he explained his situation, disdain appeared in the woman’s eyes. First, it was polite rejection, and finally, it became derision and disgust. After a lot of patience, he finally saw the woman again.

However, to his surprise, everything he did was calculated by the woman’s colleague at the same lawyer firm, Zhen Jianren. In the quiet underground garage, he was not the only predator.

The gentleman was as muscular as a tiger after he removed his suit. He easily took Luo Yi down. His leather shoes stepped on his face…

The delicious prey had stars in her eyes, and she couldn’t wait to fall into Zhen Jianren’s arms. Hero saving the damsel… It was a tired trope.

At that moment, Luo Yi couldn’t help but be reminded of the disgust on the female doctor’s face when she first told him about his issues.

But…

“Hey,” Zhen Jianren looked down on him with an interesting look. “Do you want her?”

He was stunned. The woman was stunned, too.

Luo Yi tried to speak but he couldn’t do it. The sweetness of blood exploded on his tongue.

“Oh.” Zhen Jianren smiled, “I forgot.” He moved away his feet so that Luo Yi could breathe again.

“Yes!” His eyes glowed as blood dripped down his chin.

“I’ll surrender her to you but you have to follow me somewhere after you’re done.” Zhen Jianren tilted his head, giving no care to the girl’s fear. He was waiting for Luo Yi’s answer.

“Okay!”

“Aren’t you going to ask where we’re going?” Zhen Jianren was intrigued. Something otherworldly danced in his eyes. At that moment, Luo Yi, who thought he was crazy, felt fear. He suddenly realised that his crimes were nothing compared to the man before him.

Zhen Jianren put away his smile. Before Luo Yi could answer, he said, “It’s nightmare.” He sighed. He turned and walked into the darkness. “I’ll come back for you.” The man’s voice came from the darkness.

After that incident, Luo Yi’s life was infested with strangeness.

Unlike usual, he buried the girl’s body deep in the mountain. He even moved to another city. He never showed such fear facing the police, but when he thought of that man… he had to admit he had become the prey.

The calmness and madness in the man’s eyes were not something he could rival. He took a few odd jobs and rented an underground room at Warm Home Apartments from a single elder. He was used to having his day and night inversed, so darkness and dampness were no issue for him.

The issue came on the first night. It started to rain. Following the rain was a pair of leather shoes.

“Hello.” The man was still wearing a white suit. The long umbrella stem dangled to his side as it dripped water. He raised his head to show the familiar smile on his face. The madness in his eyes was astonishing. “I’m… back for you.”

Luo Yi’s mind collapsed. He didn’t even think about resisting or escaping. Zhen Jianren sat down and showed him a video. It was from that night at the garage. There was only Luo Yi and the woman.

Everything that happened next was like a dream. He was led to a strange world by Zhen Jianren. There was the purest sin there. And a door that shouldn’t exist.

The nightmare realm… that was what they called it.

At this place, he was Zhen Jianren’s aid, and in return, Zhen Jianren helped him resolve the crisis in his real life. Zhen Jianren had superhuman thinking skills, deep connections and powerful friends. It was due to Zhen Jianren that Luo Yi managed to escape the law. They worked together to survive many missions.

However, this time… Luo Yi felt that even Zhen Jianren was stumped. Luo Yi looked at Zhen Jianren, who was seemingly in thought.

Zhen Jianren stopped. “Time is running out. We need to split up.” He turned to tell Luo Yi.

“Split up?”

“I’ll go to Year 3 Class 1, and you’ll go to Year 3 Class 2.” Zhen Jianren ordered, “Remember our identities. Do not raise their suspicion.” The girl’s choirs were all from Year 3.

Luo Yi’s expression shifted, “Isn’t that too dangerous? Aren’t you afraid we’re going to attract the ghost…” He didn’t need to finish.

“I know what you want to say.” Zhen Jianren said, “I wish we had time to check the classes one by one, but we don’t have time!” He took a deep breath. “Our biggest enemy is time! We’ve been targeted!”

“Okay.” Luo Yi nodded. He turned to leave.

“Wait!” Luo Yi turned back around.

“If the students ask for your name, how will you answer?” Zhen Jianren asked.

Luo Yi was startled before he answered, “I’ll say, Luo Yi. It’s a fake name anyway.”

Zhen Jianren shook his head. He looked into Luo Yi’s eyes and said slowly, “You’ll tell them your name is Zhou Taifu.”

Luo Yi’s eyes widened before he nodded. “Understood.” He added, “What about you?

“Fatty said he’s an unnamed orphan, and Hao Shuai is probably a fake name, too. You also can’t use Xu Wen.” Luo Yi advised. “Zhang Yinyin is a girl’s name, or you could have used that.”

“Don’t worry about me.” Zhen Jianren told him, “We’ll meet at the building entrance two hours later.”

“Cool.” Luo Yi hurried to leave.

Zhen Jianren didn’t move. He watched Luo Yi leave. Then, his nervous expression returned to normal.

“Don’t worry about me because I already have a name… It’s Luo Zhanfei.”
