Chapter 2 - 2.A Friend's Story

"Doctor .... Please save me!" The man's tone was very anxious, he came forward and reached out, wanting to catch Lin Xianfu's wrist.

Lin Xianfu didn't move to avoid his hand, walking over and pulling open a stool next to the table, signaling him to sit down, "Don't be in a hurry, you sit first."

The man complied and sat down, and Lin Xianfu also settled down directly across from him. There was only an arm's length distance between the two men.

It was only after the distance had gotten closer that Lin Xianfu was able to see the man's appearance. The first thing that caught his eye was his fluffy brown hair, which was caught in the rain and half wet, making it look dirty. His bangs hung down, hiding his eyes, so it was hard to see his eyes, and his high nose carried a few smears of dirt, unwiped clean.

-How to look, how strange. Lin Xianfu thought.

After sitting down in the clinic, the air conditioning of the cold air, he also shivered, trembling lips pale and bloodless, chin and upper lip surrounded by a circle of stubble, the whole person's dress and mental appearance seems very disheveled.

Well, quite in line with my impression of the appearance of mental illness. Lin Xianfu secretly spat.

"I... I have a friend. He looks like he's sick!"

The man inhaled, and in a hoarse voice, he said, "We've known each other for many years, and are very familiar with each other, but recently I realized that he actually has an odd fetish. He... He actually likes to eat raw meat! It also has to be the fresh kind with blood mixed on it!"

"According to him, eating these raw meats allows him to experience an unspeakable pleasure, and the more he eats, the more power will continuously emerge from within his body!"

The moment he opened his mouth, it was a heavyweight ah! Wrongly stunned, Lin Xianfu felt puzzled and decided it was better to interrupt, "Wait, sir, I'm in a veterinary clinic here."

"Although I'm wearing a white coat, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do in a situation like your friend's, why don't you please go back ...."

"No! No!"

The man suddenly became anxious, he reached out and grabbed at Lin Xianfu's wrist, this time Lin Xianfu couldn't avoid it, the man said in a hoarse voice, "Please listen to me first! Doctor, you can definitely help him!"

The look was very abnormal, tinged with madness.

The sharp pain in his hand made Lin Xianfu frown, and his professional fake smile was almost too tight to hold, so he hurriedly pacified, "Okay, I know, let go first."

"Oh... Oh!"

As if the man woke up, he let go of his hand in a hurry and apologized, "Did I hurt you? I'm sorry, doctor, when I'm impulsive I'm sometimes in a hurry, and subconsciously I want to catch something..."

The moment the man reached back, Lin Xianfu inadvertently glimpsed his hand that was originally shrunken under his raincoat, a hand that was tightly wrapped in black hair...

--A normal person's hand, can it have so much hair? What's wrong with this person...

Lin Xianfu didn't move and retracted his hand from the table, shaking his head to indicate that it was fine.

At the same time, Lin Xianfu decided that it was better not to interrupt him, letting him finish and go off on his own.

"Well, it's good that it's okay! It's good that it's okay!"

The man caught his breath and continued, "Favoring raw meat was only the beginning. Since he started eating raw meat, his physical abilities are growing rapidly, and the contours of his muscles don't need to be worked out to stand out on his body."

"He also went for a physical examination, and the doctor's report showed him to be in perfect health, and stated that he had never seen anyone so fit."

"After this, he ate more and more frequently, and as he did so, he gradually realized that the magnitude of this enhancement was related to the quality of the meat he ate - the fresher the meat, the more pronounced the growth!"

"He began to be unsatisfied with the meat that others slaughtered and put up for sale in the market; he began to buy raw chickens and gnaw them alive himself, and live cows and slaughter them himself, and then eat the organs raw ...."

.... What the hell? What the hell is he talking about? It's getting weirder and weirder. I'm just a stinking part-timer with a monthly salary of 4,000, and I don't even have a license to practice medicine, so why am I being told this? Don't really meet a psycho, right? Lin Xianfu gulped, couldn't help but sit up straight, subconsciously trying to get as far away from him as possible.

The movement amplitude is a little big, the scalpel in the coat pocket drove out the clanking sound. But at this time the man did not pay attention to these, just focused on telling the story of "his friend".

As if noticing Lin Xianfu's distraction, the man suddenly looked up, his eyes fell on Lin Xianfu's face, and asked under his breath.

"--Doctor, are you listening?"

The icy words yanked Lin Xianfu back from his disorientation, and he hastily coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment, saying, "Of course, I'm listening."

Although Lin Xianfu hadn't noticed what the man had just said, with the idea of not irritating the man in front of him, he could only say so.

When the man raised his head, Lin Xianfu was also able to see the man's blood-streaked eyes under his wet bangs.

Those eyes were red... It was as if he hadn't closed his eyes for ten days.

Lin Xianfu already wanted to call the police .... Can the police solve this kind of thing? How long would it take to rush over?

But sadly, that option was ruled out. Lin Xianfu's cell phone was charging on the counter behind him.

"Oh... Oh ...."

The man was satisfied with Lin Xianfu's answer, but after two ohs, he actually paused for a few seconds before saying blankly, "Ah... Where was I? I'm sorry, doctor, I've been feeling forgetful lately!"

"Your friend started killing live cows and eating the entrails himself." Lin Xianfu replied stiffly, "Go on, I'm quite interested about what happened to your friend."

"Ah, so that's how it is, thank you for having been listening attentively, doctor. There aren't many people who listen to me so patiently these days!"

"Ever since he started eating raw meat, he noticed that his hair has also become very vigorous, and his originally shaggy hair has actually started to grow back, although the color is a bit different from the past, it's brown..."

Lin Xianfu couldn't help but bring his eyes to his hair, well, it was brown.

"In addition to the hair, hairs also began to grow on various parts of the body, these hairs are thick and hard, pulling them out is laborious..."

".... Including the hands as well?" Lin Xianfu gulped and asked.

"Yes! Yes. Doctor, how did you know?" The man was very happy, his tone tinged with excitement, "You really do have a way to save my friend, don't you, I haven't misjudged anyone!"

"Hehe, guess." Lin Xianfu laughed dryly, his mind flashed back to the scene where he caught his hand just now.

A creepy thought surfaced in Lin Xianfu's mind: the friend he was talking about, it couldn't be himself, right?

"As the number of times he ate increased, his abnormality was eventually discovered by his family... Immediately after that, he ...." The man paused for a few seconds, changing his expression to one of demoralization before continuing to speak, "I... I actually didn't want this."

"I had thought that nothing would be able to break the relationship I had with my wife for over ten years."

"And my parents... They have an even deeper bond with me, my son, my nine-year-old son, they... They couldn't even understand me!"

"And so, the day the secret was discovered..."

A wry smile hung at the corner of the man's mouth as he said this, "I ate them all! They completely merged with me, even the bones I didn't leave behind, and we will never be separated!"

"That was a .... sumptuous meal. Also after that feeding, he gained unprecedented power!" The man was incoherent by the time he said this, and his expression became more and more frantic, "All flesh and blood is nothing compared to human flesh!"

As he was speaking, the man suddenly stood up, and Lin Xianfu, who had long since frozen in place from listening, clearly saw that underneath his raincoat, the position of his neck was actually characterized by a circle after circle of extremely thick black hair!

"So, doctor, please help me!"

The man's scarlet eyes flashed with madness, and what was left of his sanity disappeared in his desire for flesh and blood.

He wasn't pretending! His body suddenly began to swell strangely, his hard black fur piercing through his body surface and sticking into his raincoat to hold it up, making his entire body appear taller and taller!

Underneath the brim of the raincoat, the man's features began to distort, the hairs quickly spreading from his neck to his face, his ears stretching backward, growing longer and sharper, his nose and lips beginning to bulge forward, his vaguely grinning lips covered in sharp teeth, completely transforming into the appearance of a half-human, half-wolf monster!

"Roar...!"

The huge wolf head standing in front of Lin Xianfu's eyes gasped heavily.

It lowered its head and looked condescendingly at the doctor, gasping for air and saying:

"Doctor, let me take a bite .... Just one bite!"

After saying that, without waiting for the doctor to react, it lunged towards Lin Xianfu with a bow!
