Chapter 302

"Meow—" Blackie gave a fierce yelp, leaping onto Mina's head in a single bound, baring his sharp teeth in a bite at the unfortunate ghost! Jane quickly grasped Mina's hand, trying to snatch the dissection knife from her hand. A sinister light flashed in Mina's eyes, in a sudden move, she stabbed the dissection knife directly towards Jane's chest! "Damn it!" Blackie cursed quietly, his paws firmly clenching the unfortunate ghost's head. Hehehe— But the ghost's eerie laughter continued, completely unfazed by Blackie. One hand grasped Blackie's neck, lifting him up for a glance, "A low-level spectral cat dares to lay hands on me? I've eaten so many of your kind, I've lost count!" Saying this, he opened his gaping mouth, about to swallow Blackie whole. Jane's eyes hardened, she suddenly acted, a small finger forcibly pushing on the back of Mina's neck —Mina immediately passed out. The dissection knife dropped to the ground. Jane bent over to pick it up, her cold gaze fixed on the unfortunate ghost, "Let Blackie go!" "Well, this little one is pretty fair and soft, I wonder if the taste of the soul is better than this stinky spectral cat!" The unfortunate ghost's other claw reached out towards Jane. Jane picked up the dissection knife, cutting her own finger open directly, recalling the symbol Blackie drew last time when they tried to catch the gluttonous ghost... Blackie was teaching her how to catch ghosts, but before she could grasp the tricks, the sinister spirit had gone rampant. Her only option was to act desperately! As Jane cast her rune in blood, she directly stamped it onto the rogue ghost. The specter began to emit a puff of black smoke in an instant... At that moment, the knock on the door suddenly rang out, accompanied by Harold's voice, "Mina, what are you doing?" Before Jane could even reply, Harold had already flung the door open. Together with Harold, John also walked in. With a flicker of eerie green light in its eyes, the ill-fated ghost darted towards John. Blackie's feline expression turned grave, "Damn, the person it resonates the most with is your elder brother!" "What are we supposed to do now?" Jane was anxious. Their elder brother was the pillar of the family. If he went under, it would surely trigger a domino effect, their home would spiral into the chaotic scenario like when she had time traveled, triggering a downfall leading to the loss of their home and people! Blackie squinted his glimmering cat eyes, "Don’t worry, although your strike didn’t obliterate it, you've damaged its core. It can’t do any substantial harm to John at the moment, the least it can do is bring him bad luck." "Don’t think about exterminating it in its weakened state now as John's body has bonded with it. Since it has latched on to John, you can only try to neutralize it without harming your brother." Jane frowned deeply. Hurting her elder brother was not an option. At that moment, John had already contacted Dylan for a consultation with an expert for Mina. He had conducted a preliminary check-up on Mina and found her body to be in a seemingly fine shape. However, she had fainted without any reason, which was concerning. Glancing at Mina's messy room, he turned around to ask Jane about what had happened just now. Upon discovery, there were fresh bloodstains on the carpet. He immediately pulled out the hand holding Jane from behind, seeing the wound on her finger, his heart ached deeply. "Jane, is it painful?" John pulled the first-aid box over to dress Jane's wound and asked softly. Jane shook his head and said in a cute, milk-like voice, "Big brother, my sister and I were trying to catch Little Black for an experiment. My sister accidentally hit her neck while chasing Little Black and fainted." "How did your hand get injured?" After feeling sorry for her, John forced himself to sound serious. "Jane accidentally cut it with a scalpel. Jane wanted to try if my sister's scalpel was sharp enough..." Jane said in a low voice, drooping her head. She looked so pitiful and obedient that John didn't dare scold her. He could only helpless sigh, "From now on, you cannot touch the things your sister uses for dissecting, understand?" With that, he picked her up and held her in his arms. Just then, Dylan arrived with the medical staff. When Mina woke up, she was already in the hospital, surrounded by doctors in white coats by her small hospital bed. John had already gone to collect Mina's medical report. Mina blinked, instantly looking terrified. She grabbed Jane's hand and nervously asked, "Jane, what happened to me? Why are there so many doctors around me? Did I get some terminal illness and am about to die?" Jane opened her mouth, but before she could speak, Mina had already put on a face of acceptance of death, and said to the specialists, "Doctors, grampses, no matter what terminal illness I've got, please tell me. I, Mina, want to be informed alive or dead. I absolutely don't want to pass away without knowing anything." The group of experts originally held some resentment because they were all summoned for a consultation just because Mina had accidentally hit the back of her neck, causing her to faint from the impact to her carotid artery, jugular vein, and vagus nerve. However, seeing the adorable young girl now, any grievances they held seemed to evaporate instantly. With a smile, one of them reassured her, "Don't worry, little girl, your body is in great condition, and there are no problems! You simply passed out from hitting the back of your neck. We are all here just because your older brother was too worried about you. It's a bit of an overreaction." Another, slightly younger, expert added hurriedly, worried she won't be convinced, "Even when your younger sister just cut her finger, your older brother asked us to consult for her." Mina looked at the two specialist doctors and then turned to seek confirmation from Jane. Jane seriously nodded while showing her bandaged finger with a beautiful butterfly knot to Mina, adding, "Big brother personally bandaged it." "Phew," Mina patted her chest, "So long as I'm not dying, I'm relieved! Scared me to death. I was thinking that if I had some incurable disease, I'd have to pass on my autopsy tools and the years of anatomical findings I've painstakingly collected to little Jane and let her fulfill my dream of becoming the first female forensic examiner." Jane’s bright eyes sweetly curved into two crescent moons, but she laughed insincerely, "Sister, you should fulfill your own dreams. I have no interest in your dreams!" Her life's ambition is to be a rice bug! (This is a Chinese internet slang for people who live a comfortable and cushy life without working.)
