Chapter 169 168. Waking Up

Shane watched with his own eyes as the entire world got destroyed one after another. He coudln't do anything about it as he looked at the scene expressionlessly. His heart was calm as always, not even feeling a small trace of compassion for anyone who was dying.

When the last traces of life finally ended, Shane asked, "Is it done?"

"Yes," Hope smiled. "We have finished our mission. Shane, well done. You can finally be saved."

"Saved?" Shane's voice echoed that word, but he couldn't make head or tail of what it meant. "Hope, why are you acting so weirdly? It's been several minutes since you haven't said a word. And this is a big thing for you. Seriously, what's going on?"

Hope was silent as she sighed. "Shane, Don't miss me too much, yeah?"

Huhhhh???

Shane scoffed. "I won't."

Hope just smiled and said nothing. She typed something as he heard the sound of typing from his mind and said, "Shane, sleep on the ground. I'm preparing to eject both of us."

"Oh," Shane was silent. "So this is a goodbye?"

Hope nodded with a smile on her face. "I never regretted anything I did for you. So don't blame me for this when you wake up. Okay?"

Shane tilted his head, but said nothing. He laid on the ground filled with corpses and stared at the sky. He stared and stared. He finally coudln't help himself and opened his mouth.

"Hey, Hope. What will happen to me?"

"Do you finally know how to feel anxious?" Hope scoffed. "I thought you were heartless."

"Hey, I'm serious. Tell me."

Hope was silent for a moment and said, "Just trust me on this, okay?"

Shane suddenly felt dizzy all of a sudden. At the end, he felt like he heard hope speaking something, but he was so dizzy that he couldn't react. He repeatedly shook his head and tried to distract himself from feeling like this, but he still felt that way.

So he took a deep breath and closed his eyes, trying his level best to control himself. The dizziness only got worse so much that he couldn't even breathe properly. He almost felt like he was dying for real.

A hint of pain similar to thousands of pins prickling his skin crawled to his entire body, making him feel even worse.

After a second, the entire feeling disappeared all of a sudden. Even the feeling of pain vanished without a trace, making him feel dazed.

What just happened?

He wanted to move, but he couldn't. He wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't. Again. The only way he could feel that he was still alive because he was still breathing.

A frown crossed his forehead at that. Just as he was about to try speaking, he heard someone's voice from the background. "He's awake!"

"Damn this villain!" an angry voice said, "He gave us such a headache. He was indeed punished for his crimes, but why did I feel like I was punished instead?"

"Shh. he can hear everything, you know?"

"That's fine, but why did she have to sacrifice herself to save this villain?! She wasa the hope of this universe! Why did she do that, eh? Now, who will save us from the zergs?"

Shane frowned deeper. What's going on?

Save who?

And hope of the world?

Someone, please tell him something.

Just then, footsteps echoed indicating that someone had just entered his ward. The person sighed and spoke: "All of you, quiet."

The man seemed to be young from his voice.

Then after a pause, the man said, "I know you are awake. Try opening your eyes."

Shane's eyeballs moved, but he still failed to open his eyes. He sighed and stayed like that on the bed.

The doctor lifted his wrist and checked his nerves. He frowned. "You're alive, indeed. It shoudl be a good news, but it's not. You should be dead for what you did."

Shane didn't feel good after listening to those words. He wanted to know what the heck was going on, but he was afraid.

Was there something wrong? Did he end up transmigrating as a villain in some other world?

That was highly possible.

For some reason, he wanted to lash out on a certain girl, but when he realized that she wasn't here, he could only sighed and forget about it.

Let us try surviving in this world, shall we?

After deciding on what he should do, he quietly started listening to the voices outside the room.

"Doctor, his body is not responding," the nurse said worriedly. "What should we do? Should we give him a shock theorapy?"

Shane's heart thumped in his chest.

Whart the heck?

A shock therapy?!

Girl, let him at least try to wake up first, okay?

Perhaps the eyeballs were mvoing at a great speed and his heartbeat had increased on the machine that indicated his anxiousness. The doctor chuckled and said, "Look, he's getting anxious already. Good work, nurse."

F*ck! What the heck was wrong with these people? Was this the way to treat a patient?!

Ah, he wanted to get out of here!

Shane knew that he couldn't do anything about it. So he continued lying on the bed without saying another word.

Just when he had resigned to himself, he heard the sound of footsteps again. This time, an old lady opened the door. She seemed to be crying.

The doctor spoke in a shocked and guarded tone, "Mrs. Elliott, what are you doing here? This is a patient ward, and he hasn't woken up. Please., go back."

"Go back?!" The old woman spat and said, "After what happened to my daughter, you still dare to tell me to go back? This man was responsible for killing my daughter, and you want me to go back?! Let me tell you, if I don't kill him right here, and right now, I'll change my name!"

Everyone was silent as a nurse approached him at a slow pace. "Mrs. Elliott, calm down, please. Let us treat him first. Then we will handle his punishment procedure in court. Everything will be fine."

"Hah! Do what you want!" The woman started crying as she fell to the ground with a thud. "Nothing can bring me my daughter back, you hear me?!"

Shane was confused. For some reason, he felt her voice was familiar.

He tried moving his eyelids, but he was still unsuccessful.

The old woman got up to her feet and wiped her face, staring coldly at Shane's body. Even when the guy was lying to the bed with his eyes closed, he could still feel the coldness through her glance. He shivered from head to toe. Even his heartbeat increased because of her stare.

The doctor frowned and dragged the lady outside the ward. "Mrs. Elliott, please listen to us. This is the court's order. You have always known how your daughter was. Prim and proper. She never liked doing things like this. So please, let us do our duty."

After that, everyone else went outside the ward, not glancing behind.

Shane was only speechless after seeing what had happened. At this time, he decided to collect the information according to his situation.

First, the body he was in seemed to have committed a serious crime that killed this Mrs. Elliott's daughter. The court perhaps wanted to punish him because of that crime, but he got a serious medical issue that made him bedridden in the hospital with a paralyzed body.

Third. Shane didn't have a system.

This meant he perhaps ended up transmigrating to a strange world where he didn't know a single person.

And he might be a criminal here.

He frowned as he tried to process the information. Honestly, this info was too less to even think about how he should survive. He should just collect more information for now.

After thinking about it, he continued to lie on the bed and decided to find more information about this world.

For some reason, Hope's last words flashed in his head. She had said not to miss him too much.

Why would he do that? He never liked her in the first place. He never even had a friendship with her. So why would he miss her? She was rather a very annoying girl who looked more like a villain.

Shane shook his head and decided not to think about it anymore.

At this time, the doctor came again with a few more people in toe. This time, they were police officers.

The chief officer seemed to have given a glance at the body lying on the bed and hmmed. "When will he wake up?"

The doctor respectfully said, "We have no idea. The accident happened too suddenly, and it impacted his brain's capacity to move his body. It seems there must be something wrong with his brain, and it might effect his memories."

The officer was silent for a while and said, "Doesn't that mean he will be innocent if he forgot everything?"

"Yes…." The doctor didn't know what to say."

The man's dark voice echoed in the ward. "Then make him remember at all cost!"

After saying that, the man walked out of the ward.
