It was windy and rainy, and it was a murderous night.
There was a strong wind and heavy rain outside. Occasionally, lightning flashed, illuminating the indifferent face of the caregiver.
She stood by the bed, staring down at Xu Cheng who was lying on the bed, and a murderous intention gradually appeared in her eyes.
Tonight, she went to see the director of the orphanage and wanted to apply for another position. However, the director's words made her heart drop to the bottom.
Because no one in the orphanage was willing to take over, she, the unlucky one, could only continue to take care of the devil's son and raise him.
The nurse was already ostracized in the orphanage. Because she took care of the devil's son, no one dared to touch her. Rumors spread that she was contaminated by the devil, causing her to suffer the pain of isolation.
The caregiver felt deep despair at the thought of continuing to take care of this devil's child for a time with no end in sight.
"Unless that damn thing dies, you're going to have to take care of him until he grows up."
The dean's words flashed through the mind of the nurse again.
She didn't know whether the dean's move was unintentional or a hint, but it undoubtedly provided a way for the nursing staff.
That's right, as long as this devil's child dies, she can be freed from this endless pain.
"Who said your life is bad?"
The nurse gritted his teeth, put his hands on Xu Cheng's neck, and slowly pinched it tightly.
After taking care of him for several months, she knew that apart from his scary appearance, this child actually didn't have any special powers, so she dared to come here alone tonight.
Xu Cheng was filled with anger at this moment.
In the past few months, he had not done anything special, and he had turned a blind eye to the torture of the nurse. Unexpectedly, what he got in exchange was not goodwill, but the other's extravagance, and even wanted to kill him.
But what can he do if he is trapped in this weak body?
Now I can't even resist.
"No one will care about the life or death of a devil's son. If you kill you, they will even applaud you."
The nurse muttered, as if she was explaining to Xu Cheng, and also seemed to be convincing herself, and gradually used her hands harder.
Xu Cheng's face turned purple and he could no longer breathe.
He didn't speak or struggle. He just opened his vertical pupils and looked quietly into the caregiver's eyes.
The nurse trembled at the calm look in his eyes, but became more ferocious. He used more force with his hands and even dug his nails into his neck.
"Damn it, this world is really full of malice towards me."
Although unable to resist, Xu Cheng did not sit still and wait for death.
If he didn't want to be strangled to death, the only thing he could count on now was the demon living in his body.
"If you don't want to inhabit a corpse, help your brother."
Xu Cheng said silently in his heart.
He just gave it a try, but he didn't expect that a mysterious voice actually sounded from the bottom of his heart.
This voice could not distinguish between male and female, nor gender. It spoke a language different from humans, but Xu Cheng could still understand it under the translation of the dog manager.
"Kid, can you feel my presence?"
The demon's voice was filled with surprise.
This child was just born not long ago, right? His thinking has become so mature?
"Nonsense, it wasn't you or me who could look like this? Come on, help me, or I'm going to die!"
"Tsk, tsk, you can even understand the devil's language. I've really underestimated you these past few months."
The demon has been living in Xu Cheng's body for several months. I thought he was just an ordinary sacrifice, but today I discovered something unusual about him.
It chuckled.
"Kid, if you want the devil to do something, you have to pay a price."
"Is there anything wrong with your mind?"
Xu Cheng retorted unceremoniously: "If I die, who are you going to do business with? If you don't quickly save me as your only customer, why are you still raising prices? Do you have any business ideas at all?"
"Who told you that you are the only guest?"
The devil said calmly: "I finally came out of hell, and all the people in this world are my guests."
"Okay, okay, then go find someone else and leave without seeing her off."
Xu Cheng was immediately defeated.
He didn't believe the devil's lies. If he could change people at will, this guy would have run away long ago. Why should he be trapped in this weak body with him? Does it also have the hobby of being a coward?
Logically speaking, it had been so long, Xu Cheng should have been strangled to death by the nurse.
But he is still alive now, even though his face was bruised and bruised, and he has not breathed for several minutes.
Obviously, the devil has been secretly taking action.
"What a difficult kid."
The devil muttered, it was indeed just deceiving Xu Cheng. It was summoned by Xu Cheng's temporary parents and could only stay in Xu Cheng's sacrifice.
Xu Cheng's body is its coordinates. Once it dies, it can only roll back to hell.
"Why."
The nurse had a look of horror on her face. She had been pinching Xu Cheng's neck for a while, but Xu Cheng hadn't died yet and was still staring at her with calm eyes.
"Even if you are a demon, you will not kill your own young ones at will."
Xu Cheng suddenly let out a sigh, which sounded like a man but not a woman. He couldn't tell his age. It was the voice of a devil.
"Say...speak?!"
The nurse was so frightened that she let go of her hands and took a step back. Then, she saw Xu Cheng's small body flying up from the bed and hovering in the air.
A pair of vertical pupils emitted scarlet light.
"Devil!"
The caregiver screamed in fright, turned around and ran away.
But before she could run a few steps, she flew into the air uncontrollably.
An invisible huge force began to pull her hands, feet and head.
"Ahhhhh!"
The caregiver let out a shrill scream, but the pouring rain and bursts of thunder outside covered up the movement here.
The demon did not kill the nurse immediately, but slowly pulled her body bit by bit.
Amidst the chilling sounds of broken bones and torn muscles, the body of the caregiver was torn into several pieces like it was being torn apart by five horses, with blood and internal organs scattered all over the floor.
"Are you satisfied with this service? Kid."
The devil communicated with Xu Cheng in a malicious voice, as if he wanted to see his embarrassment.
But the devil was very disappointed, Xu Cheng's mood was very calm, and even a little dissatisfied.
"You've made the floor dirty like this, who's going to clean it?"
"Kid, don't push yourself too far, or I can end your life at any time."
The demon threatened fiercely, and then asked doubtfully: "Who are you? Ordinary human cubs don't have the thinking ability like you?"
Xu Cheng said casually: "Please call me Saltos!"
The demon was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled and said meaningfully: "Kid, I'll give you a piece of advice. Even if you just call some great beings by their first names, it's a capital crime!"
Xu Cheng captured what he was worried about: "Are you afraid that I will implicate you? Who is Sartos..."
"enough!"
The devil seemed to be afraid of Xu Cheng continuing to speak, and interrupted him angrily: "If you don't want to die, just shut up!"
Xu Cheng smiled slightly: "Then don't threaten to kill me at every turn, I'm a coward."
The devil didn't say anything anymore, and Xu Cheng didn't tease him anymore.
Both sides are aware of each other's difficulties, but they are now grasshoppers on the same rope.
The devil doesn't want to be driven back to hell, and Xu Cheng doesn't want to die young. The two sides can only pinch noses for mutual benefit and help each other.
"Let's get rid of the body first."
Xu Cheng reminded the devil: "Otherwise, if someone discovers me tomorrow and it is proven that I am the son of the devil, it will be over."
The devil said nothing.
Xu Cheng seemed to have thought of something, and his face changed: "Don't you have no strength?"
"It's not that you don't have strength, it's that your body can no longer withstand my use of power again."
"Then why did you just waste your energy on torturing her?!"
"I am a demon, and torture is my instinct."
"I think your instinct is to eat shit,"
No matter how angry Xu Cheng was, the demon could no longer exert its power, but he was reluctant to give up a chance to reopen.
Time quickly came to the next day.
The place where Xu Cheng lives, located in a remote corner of the orphanage, has been rumored to be the devil's lair. On weekdays, except for the caregivers, few people dare to set foot here.
Xu Cheng originally thought that he would delay it for a few days and wait for the demon's power to recover before disposing of the body of the caregiver.
But he underestimated the world's malice toward him.
The next day, a caregiver who didn't know why he came here pushed open the ajar door and saw the body parts and internal organs all over the floor. He almost didn't push it over on the spot.
Then, a scream that almost echoed through the entire orphanage attracted everyone's attention.
Outside the door, a group of caregivers were holding kitchen knives, axes, iron rods and other weapons in their hands. They were guarding the door as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Farther away, a large number of orphans of different ages were gathering together and pointing. Point and point.
In the room, Xu Cheng was lying on the bed with a sore face, unable to stand up yet. He finally fulfilled his title as the Son of the Devil and put the entire orphanage on the highest alert.
The director of the orphanage stood at the door of the room with a very ugly face.
She just gave the nurse a small hint last night. She thought she could solve the problem, but she didn't expect that it would cause even bigger trouble.
The orphanage has been accepting donations from dignitaries in the city. If they knew that a demon was being raised in the orphanage, it would not only be a matter of reputation and money, but also a matter of whether the orphanage could continue to operate.
"Dean, do it!"
The caregivers nearby kept persuading her.
"If we don't take action, our orphanage will be in danger."
"Yes, we must not allow this devil to remain in the courtyard."
After a long time, the dean finally made up his mind and waved his hand: "Burn it."
The caregivers cheered, then piled the bundles of firewood they had collected around the room, poured grease on them, and lit them with fire.
They didn't dare to go in and contact the devil's son, so they could only use this method to burn him to death.
