Strange Cards

Chapter 315 Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain

Shigure refused to believe in evil and instead used the power of the Ace of Spades to reconstruct numerous firepower devices on his body.

After a barrage of fire from the weaponry, the demon's aura weakened considerably, and at that moment, Shiyu said in a deep voice.

"Steel Claws".

"Annihilate!"

As soon as I finished speaking, Steel Claw burst out from my shadow. However, this time, Steel Claw wasn't wearing a suit; it was its own ghostly form.

This time, the steel claws clearly carried an aura of rules as they slammed into the evil spirit.

The rule of steel claws was also triggered, and the evil spirit was instantly cut into countless pieces before disappearing from the spot.

Shi Yu looked at this farce that started strong but ended weakly, and scratched his head in confusion.

"They just fought a short-lived battle and ran away?"

"No, before it could even run, it was killed by the rules of the Steel Claw."

But then the ghost slowly reappeared, and this time steel claws appeared on its arms.

The annihilation rule of the steel claws also appeared on the ghost's body, and it fiercely slashed at the steel claws.

Shigure knew perfectly well that the Steel Claw's rule of annihilation was that once someone was caught by that claw, they would die instantly. This thing was on the same level as the Mortal Blade.

But this ghost actually withstood the rule of annihilation and survived. It even simulated the rule of loneliness of the steel claw and fought against the steel claw.

However, the two rules of annihilation collided and were directly annihilated, leaving the two ghosts with only normal hand-to-hand combat.

But that ghost clearly had other rules, and Shigure no longer dared to act rashly.

Who knows what else this thing can copy from the past? If it copies Shigure's Shura from the past, then this battle is truly hopeless.

At that moment, A's voice rang out.

"Kid, it's my turn."

"This ghost is very strange."

"This isn't how you create a clone; there can't be a clone of the same level as a rule-based clone."

"This ghost looks a lot like the mirror image of the Six of Spades' power."

Shi Yu nodded, and then a large horn sprouted from the right side of her forehead, with countless dark lines spiraling up it.

After receiving the weapon, A pulled out a sniper rifle and fired it directly at the ghost's eyes. After two crisp gunshots, the ghost's eyeballs exploded.

Moreover, the moment his eyeballs burst, Shigure clearly noticed that all of the demon's abilities had disappeared, even the Annihilation Rule of the Steel Claw was gone.

A controlled Shigure's body to rush forward, his right arm transforming into a thunderous horn once more, slamming it into the demon's body.

After A struck the demon and severely injured it, Steel Claw came over and stabbed both of its claws into the demon's body, tearing it in two.

"Steel claws, don't waste them."

"Absorb it."

Steel Claw nodded, then opened its massive maw filled with sharp blades and crunched as it devoured the two halves of the ghost.

A then logged out of the account and removed all of Shigure's equipment.

"Indeed, the aura emanating from this ghost is indeed that of the Six of Spades."

"But this ghost is a ghost that has made a contract with someone else. The owner of that ghost has attached the power of the Six of Spades to this ghost."

"Could this be...?"

"A diversionary tactic!"

Shi Yu instantly opened the black hole and rushed towards the hospital.

Shi Yu didn't dare to delay and used the black hole to directly send herself to the vicinity of Liu Yinyin's nurse station.

Shi Yu looked at the people who had fallen, then glanced at Liu An, who was fighting someone at the end of the corridor. In an instant, Shi Yu transformed into a bolt of lightning and thrust his sword directly at Liu An's opponent.

Liu An naturally heard the faint rumble of thunder as well, and upon hearing the familiar voice, he knew who it was without even turning around.

Liu An squatted down, and the man was stabbed into the toilet by Shi Yu.

Shi Yu looked at the person wearing a black mask in front of her, and just as she was about to reach out to remove the mask, she saw the person suddenly bite their tongue and commit suicide. Then, the person's body turned into a pool of foul-smelling pus.

Shi Yu sighed as she looked at the person who had turned into pus. After cleaning him up, she discovered that Liu An had already saved everyone outside using the strange doctor.

Having undergone major surgery without having breakfast and then engaged in combat, Liu An's body was naturally exhausted after saving the person. If Shi Yu hadn't been fast enough, Liu An would have fallen to the ground.

After supporting Liu An's body, Shi Yu carried Liu An on her back, went to the nurses' station to take the breakfast she had left there, and put Liu An on a chair next to her and fed her bite by bite.

Shi Yu looked at Liu An's trembling hands and couldn't tell that Liu An was exhausted. Liu An, on the other hand, didn't resist when his younger brother Shi Yu fed him, but obediently ate.

After finishing his meal, Liu An patted Shi Yu on the shoulder and stretched.

"Okay, my sister is alright now."

"Actually, I knew you were here when you first came to the hospital, I was in surgery inside. You have a strong presence, I could feel it even in the operating room."

"Then I sensed the presence of a ghost. Just as I was about to call the boss and the others through my earpiece, I saw you chasing after that ghost. When I came back, I found that this guy was trying to attack me."

"Luckily you arrived quickly, otherwise my sister's already exhausted body would have been in serious trouble."

Shi Yu summoned a shadow, intending to have it protect Liu An's safety, when Liu An gently patted Shi Yu's forehead and said...

"Okay, don't worry so much about your sister's safety."

"Your sister was once known as the woman even ghosts fear. If I hadn't been ambushed this time, I would definitely have been able to kill that guy."

"My sister promises that she will eat breakfast before the next surgery and this situation will not happen again."

Shi Yu looked at Liu An with eyes full of worry.

Liu An smiled and gently pinched Shi Yu's cheek.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll be careful."

"Unlike you, I don't have the opportunity to rebuild my body. I can't learn your relentless fighting style."

"I have Xiao Jiu at home, and Yu Yan who is crying for milk. With these two girls on top of me, I can't die even if I want to."

"But remember, you must always be careful to stay safe."

"Your sister is worried you'll get hurt."

Shi Yu suddenly fell silent, completely silenced by Liu An's words.

This was the first time, apart from Bai Yu and Shi Yanlan, that an outsider had worried about him getting hurt.

Of course, Liu An wasn't an outsider either, but Shi Yu still found the feeling of being cared for by her older sister quite peculiar.

Liu An smiled and took Shi Yu's forearm as they walked down the stairs.

"Don't just stand there, I'll make you a braised pork knuckle when we get home."

"It's almost January, let's take a break and relax."

Shi Yu looked at Liu An and, after a long pause, finally managed to utter a sentence.

"Yu Yan said you were supposed to be doing some kind of post-operative report, right?"

"That's not important."

Liu An shook the hair at the back of her head, tied it into a bun, and then tied Shi Yu's hair into a bun as well.

"The guy who was brought in for surgery was hit by a car. Even I could barely save his life, because the impact was too severe."

"This already constitutes intentional homicide. Once the case is closed, we no longer need to conduct post-operative reports to study how to recover; someone else will handle it."

"I'm just the surgeon; once I've cured the patient, I don't need to worry about anything else."

"Let's go home and have some braised pork knuckle."

Liu An easily got into Shi Yu's car, got the keys from Shi Yu, and started the car.

In the car, Shi Yu watched Liu Andao, who was focused on driving.

"Sister Liu An, didn't you drive here?"

Liu An shook his head, took out a piece of chocolate from his bag, and put it into Shi Yu's mouth.

"No."

"The hospital called me early in the morning to have surgery, so I drank some glucose and ate a few pieces of chocolate to have the energy to complete the surgery."

"They sent a car to pick me up from Jiangtian Haoyuan, but I didn't regain consciousness until I got to the hospital."

"When I'm in the car, I feel like my body is in the car, but my soul is chasing after me."

"Where's Xiao Jiu?"

Shi Yu thought for a moment and came up with a possibility.

"Either they're dealing with Steel Claw right now, or they're messing around with those cats."

"After the tabby and calico cats arrived, both of them gained a lot of weight. Then one time, when I came back from a mission late at night, I found that these little guys had opened cans of food for them as an extra treat."
