Watching the First Master fall back into a deep sleep, the Second Master slowed his breathing and footsteps, and slowly retreated.
"Keep a good watch on this ward. Don't let anyone in except for doctors and nurses. Keep your eyes sharp. If any rat accidentally sneaks in, I'll throw you to the rats to feed them. Understood?" The Second Master put on his sunglasses again, hiding whatever was in his eyes, but his tone was icy and terrifying.
"Yes!" The two people at the door shivered on hearing the Second Master's words and immediately responded, as if they had seen something terrifying.
The Second Master glanced at the two again before getting up and leaving.
Inside the ward, the First Master didn't sleep peacefully. In a daze, he seemed to return to his youth, standing next to a woman with braided hair. Due to the angle, he couldn't see the woman's face, but strangely, he knew she was giving him a shy smile in his dream.
