The cabinet was open without any warning in the mortuary. Josh was extremely terrified, and he clung to Blake.
There was a dead silence, and there was not any movement from the cabinet except for its opening. Josh thought
that a hand or a head might pop out, or the entire corpse might stand up. But nothing happened, which made the
wait even scarier. Josh gulped and said, “Un… Uncle Blake, can you take a look?” Blake picked Josh up and threw
him over. “How can you be great in the future if you’re this timid now?” Josh thought, He’s so cruel! The future isn’t
now; I must be very brave in the future!
He was thrown against the cabinet, and before he could react, he made eye contact with the corpse inside it. There
was a tiny corpse in the icy cabinet; her eyes were opened wide, and she was staring right at him. He was

“catch” him if he breathed. He held his breath, trying to stand up. But his legs were weak; he lost control and fell
into the cabinet. Fu… F*ck! His entire body almost touched the corpse, and magically he was calmed. He was still
scared, but he managed to have a close look at her. This body isn’t Jannat! Wait, why is she wearing Jannat’s
clothes? He was sure that Jannat wore the same clothes as this corpse the morning they met her. So, where is
Jannat? She asked us to meet her here, and we’ve been here for so long. We’re even making so much noise, so she
should hear us by now.
And Josh realized that he had omitted a very important issue. Why didn’t I ask Jannat the exact spot where we were
meeting? The hospital mortuary is extremely huge. Why didn’t I ask for the exact cabinet? Josh was multitasking at
the moment; he was thinking while he tried to climb out of the cabinet. Finally, he managed to step a foot out of the
cabinet, and a tiny and cold hand grabbed his elbow! He turned around and saw that the corpse was using him to
get up. “Sh*t!” He jumped out of the cabinet and stuttered, “Oh my… oh my…”
Lilly, Pablo, and Blake all had the same thought looking at him: Is he really the future Asmodeus? Asmodeus has to
work at night. Can he really do it?
Lilly tried to cheer herself up. “It’s alright; he still needs some experience.” Blake said, “What about we leave and
lock him here alone?” Lilly used to fight alone for the entire night back then on Saffron Island. Pablo said, “Or we
can lock him in the cabinet.” Josh was upset. They’re not helping me, and they’re having a conversation now! He
was fighting with the tiny corpse in the cabinet. In the beginning, he did not dare to touch her, but he had no choice
but to bite her hand and push her away. His shirt was torn, but the hand was still grabbing onto his arm; his arm
was bruised by her strong grip. “What the…” He said anxiously, “Stop grabbing me; stop it!” The corpse suddenly

clothes? Who are you?”
The little girl in the cabinet was around five years old, but she was slimmer than Jannat. Her eyes were puffy, and
she was moving her lips, but she could not speak. Josh was losing it. Dong! A faint clock sound could be heard from
afar; it was already half past 12. The girl suddenly sat up, and her neck was broken all of a sudden, and she fell
back in. All of them were at a loss for words.
“Save me…” She grabbed Josh’s arm again and begged, “I don’t want to die!” Josh was speechless. You don’t want
to die, but you twisted your neck like that! He was frightened by her, and before he could react, she twisted her
neck. He was too shocked to be scared now. He hesitantly twisted her neck back into the original position. As he
sighed in relief, a little girl came close to him and asked, “Hey, what are you doing with Miah’s head?”
