I triggered the fire extinguisher, and sputtering foam sprayed out of the hose. Caught off guard, Hu got a face full of it with foam squirting into his eyes.
Hu began to howl, flailing wildly with the rod in his hand.
Fortunately, he had lost his sight and temporarily couldn't harm me. I quickly pushed myself to safety, and just when I had relaxed a bit, I felt a blunt pain on the back of my head; my vision darkened as I passed out.

When I woke up again, I was in Zheng Yufei's office. I tried to get up, but a dull pain throbbed in my head, making me grit my teeth in agony.
Seeing me regain consciousness, Zheng Yufei came over, concern written all over her face, "Are you okay?"
I tried to speak, but my mouth tasted of rust, and my voice was hoarse. Zheng Yufei sat beside me, placing my head on her legs to help me lie more comfortably.
