In the afternoon, the sun was gradually setting in the west.

The sun was setting...

In the county hospital's ward.

Wang Zhifeng looked at the person on the bed, who was screaming frantically. He chuckled and looked at him with disdain, saying, "Tsk... What time is it? Still hoping for a rescue... How can you not recognize reality?"

With that, he turned and left the ward.

As soon as he stepped out of the ward, he put on a worried expression and nodded slightly to a few officers from the police station standing outside the ward. "Comrade Xiao seems to be in a bad mood. Please bear with it."

The police officers, dressed in uniforms, said solemnly, "For such social parasites, Secretary Wang, don't be too polite. We'll take him away soon."

Wang Zhifeng expressed sorrowfully, "... He was once a colleague. Seeing him become like this, I can't help but feel pity. Sigh... I hope he realizes his mistakes and corrects them soon... Well then, please take care of it."

Afterward, he watched them enter the ward and then left the hospital with a blank expression.

Outside, darkness had fallen.

In Dushan Village.

After finishing acupuncture for Grandpa Fu and while he was soaking in a medicinal bath, Fu Xiao returned to her room.

It was still far from bedtime.

She entered the space, went to the pharmaceutical machine, opened it, selected the drug-making page, chose an option, and clicked to start making.

She thought, she needed to prepare more poisons. Like for Xiao Jun, she preferred psychological torment over physical harm. However, at that time, she didn't have the right poison and had to resort to violence.

This time, she planned to produce all kinds of poisons available in the machine.

As she watched the machine operate, she hoped that next time someone would unwittingly cross her path, so she would have test subjects ready.

The more she thought about it, the more interesting it seemed, and a smile appeared on her baby-faced countenance, which only looked increasingly twisted...

A rooster crowed, waking up the sleeping Dushan Village. The sky was just beginning to brighten, with faint morning light covering the entire village.

Those who had work to do got up very early, taking advantage of the time before the sun came up to cook, or to tidy up their homes, as there would be no time left when work began.

A busy day started again.

Fu Xiao woke up early as well. She got up and practiced boxing with Grandpa Fu. After some time of learning, her military boxing looked quite decent, and even Grandpa Fu praised her innate talent.

She added some spiritual spring water to the family's proud hen and, when no one was looking, sprinkled some of the space's grains on them, as the grains in the space were too much to consume.

Breakfast was the usual porridge with eggs. After some time, there were enough eggs at home for everyone to have one in the morning, but the adults still habitually left the eggs for the children and didn't take any.

This habit made Fu Xiao quite frustrated. It seemed they had gotten used to frugality and were reluctant to eat even when there was enough.

After breakfast, when everyone went off to work, Fu Xiao found it boring to stay home alone, so she dragged Fu Kai and went with Grandpa Fu to his friend's house.
