I, a Mental Patient, Was Chosen to Participate in AnalogHorror-Chapter 488 - 454: Jiang Xiao vs Pennywise

Jiang Xiao cocked his head, watching a clown perform a comical dance before him.

The clown’s makeup was exaggerated, or to put it more bluntly, it was painfully garish. His legs kept repeating a strange side-to-side jumping motion, each time raising to the eerie height of his shoulders.

It looked... kind of hilarious?

But why did it feel like he had seen this clown somewhere before?

On the other side, Du Lala and Liu Dengyun also felt the presence of Pennywise.

Though still over 100 meters away, this was their first "close" encounter.

Negative emotions such as oppression, fear, and despair began to invade their brains.

"Something’s not right... Something’s off... Jiang Xiao, how can he..."

Wang Tiantian’s head was splitting, but she still fixated on Jiang Xiao’s behavior on the screen.

However, in their screen, they couldn’t see the clown, only a puzzled Jiang Xiao.

Liu Dengyun took over the conversation incredulously.

"Jiang Xiao, he, he seems not to recognize Pennywise anymore?"

Yes, that was it. He did not recognize him.

Those wise eyes clearly showed that he had no idea what was happening.

Jiang Xiao scratched his head, feeling some confusion in his memory, but before he could take a closer look,

"Hehehe..."

A sinister and frightening laugh echoed from behind him, and a chilling touch came over his shoulder.

He spun around sharply.

He found a man wearing a white lab coat, his body severely decomposed, with an eyeball hanging onto his face, shaking uncontrollably in front of him.

The cold touch came from the man’s half-rotted hand bone that had landed on Jiang Xiao’s shoulder.

Emm...

"Director Yu, when did you learn to cosplay? Although I think your makeup could use some work..."

Hm?

The Director Yu, who had turned into a zombie, was taken aback.

Before he could react, Jiang Xiao had already smiled and reached out to grab his dangling eyeball.

With a "rip" sound!

The entire eyeball, along with a layer of the membrane, was torn off, and some strange fluid began to seep from the now hollow socket.

But that wasn’t enough...

"Zombies are supposed to be dismembered, how could you get props with intact limbs?"

More crisp sounds followed.

Director Yu Tianci’s already rotting right arm was broken in half, and the black and stinking bone stub protruded from the cross-section.

"See, this looks much better now, but I think your nose could also use some work..."

Jiang Xiao pondered with his hand on his chin, feeling like the greatest body sculptor in Bikini Bottom, trying to find further areas to ’improve’ on Yu Tianci.

"Thud~"

The sound of an object hitting the ground caught Jiang Xiao’s attention.

Right before him, a piece of rotten flesh had fallen from seemingly nowhere...

To call it flesh might not be quite right, as it was writhing and growing, and seemed to have an eyeball on it?

It stared directly at Jiang Xiao with a cold, hateful gaze.

By the time he turned around to find the eye prop he had just plucked out, it was nowhere to be found.

"Eh? That’s odd..."

Not only was the eye prop gone, but even Director Yu, who had cosplayed, had vanished.

Hiss?

Right, what about that clown man?

Jiang Xiao felt his brain was in a tangle, like when you wake up at 3 in the morning and try to fall back asleep.

There!

The clown appeared again.

He was staring at Jiang Xiao with a bizarre gaze.

Jiang Xiao responded with a genial smile.

Just then, the piece of rotten flesh on the ground rapidly grew in size, swelling to the size of a heavy truck in no time, and the eyeball grew as large as a coffee table, looming over Jiang Xiao’s head as if to cover it.

"Holy shit!"

Jiang Xiao stepped back hastily, frantically dodging the attack of this bizarre thing.

Seeing his performance, the clown patted his chest and revealed a signature smile.

"Hey hey ha, dear buddy, your performance just now was really terrible, I thought you didn’t know what fear was, I swear, you’re the bravest kid I’ve ever seen, I swear I must have thought that, wahahaha..."

The clown, who seemed to remember something funny, held his stomach and laughed so hard he couldn’t straighten his waist.

"Slap!"

A loud slap sound followed by a burning pain on the face interrupted the clown’s maniacal laughter.

Confused, he looked up.

Pennywise met Jiang Xiao’s wise-looking eyes.

"I hate it when people call me a kid because I am already an adult, a physically and mentally healthy adult, and I hope you can respect that."

Clown: "?"

Not right...

This wasn’t right, something seemed to be splitting apart.

The clown took a step back and then disappeared.

He ran away?

"Jiang Xiao! What the heck happened to you just now?"

An urgent call made him give up searching for the clown’s figure, it was Yu Tianci.

"Director? What happened to your COS costume? You changed pretty fast."

What COS costume?

Yu Tianci scratched his own balding spot, confused, just like the other mental patients around him.

"What happened to you, shouting like that, you scared us to death."

"Did I?" Jiang Xiao thought carefully and felt his own behavior just now was very normal: "It’s you, shamelessly, you were reluctant to COS as Brother Octopus before, and now you even started COSing as a zombie."

"You kid..."

Director Yu shook his head helplessly with a smile, he was used to the incoherent statements from mental patients like Jiang Xiao.

"But the zombie you mentioned, is it like this?"

"Click click click..."

Suddenly!

Yu Tianci’s body twisted to a weird extent in an instant, his back twisted to a degree that would have broken his spine, and his legs went through his hands...

It may sound strange, but that was the fact.

"Yoga?"

"What?"

"Is it yoga?"

Yu Tianci: ...

"Enough!"

A furious shout came from behind Jiang Xiao.

Turning around again, it was the clown; he was back?

"No, mate, where did you just go? Popping in and out like that, could it be you’ve mastered the Wave Riding Steps?"

"What Wave Riding Steps! There is no such thing! Damned kid, you have completely enraged me! I swear to the Virgin Mary, besides the day when I was a child and got caught by my uncle stealing an apple pie, today is the worst day I’ve ever had!"

The clown was panting heavily, seeming both angry and exhausted.

Hmm?

Where’s the person?

The clown widened his eyes; where was that damned human who was just in front of him?

"Hey, I’m behind you."

What?

The clown turned around...

"Slap!"

Same spot, same force.

The double challenge even made the clown forget to think for a moment.

"Uh, that, I didn’t mean to hit you, it was just to prove to you that I know Wave Riding Steps, too."

Wang Defa?!

"What are you talking about? What Wave Riding Steps?"

"Uh, so you’re using ’Skating on Snow without Trace’? I practiced Wave Riding Steps anyway, um, you must have practiced it in your dreams like me, right? Director Qingshan, that Old Bideng, still doesn’t believe me."

What’s with what?

Looking at the clown who stood motionless and began to doubt life, Jiang Xiao felt he probably still didn’t believe his words.
