Although Li Tianque had guessed Chu's intention, he was still not entirely sure and asked tentatively,
"Chu... Are you planning to pry the door open with this bone?"
"Yes."
Chu replied indifferently, walking past Li Tianque while dragging a large bone club still stained with bits of blood and flesh.
"Are you sure this bone will work?" Li Tianque asked, half-convinced and half-doubtful.
Although this fierce beast's bone looked sturdy, and according to legends, a fierce beast's bones were far tougher than those of ordinary wild animals, comparing a bone to a metal crowbar still seemed like quite a stretch.
Trying to pry open that sturdy door with this thing felt like a nearly impossible task.
Chu did not respond to Li Tianque's doubt; she just stood by the door, pondering quietly with the bone in hand.
After thinking for a long while, she slowly and tentatively inserted the tail end of the bone into the gap at the door hinge.
Li Tianque was extremely curious, wanting to see what method Chu intended to use to pry open the door with a bone.
Just then, Chu suddenly turned her head to look back.
Her paper-white face was completely expressionless, yet it sent a chill straight down Li Tianque's spine.
Feeling a bit creeped out by her gaze, Li Tianque asked with a start,
"Uh... Do you need my help?"
Chu nodded slightly and said,
"Help me hold it steady!"
Li Tianque hurried over and placed his hands on the sticky humerus.
"Is this how you want me to hold it?"
Before Li Tianque's voice had even faded, Chu whipped the hammer out from Li Tianque's clothes with lightning-fast speed and smashed it down onto the bone with a ferocious swing.
Li Tianque felt a thunderous roar in his eardrums, a flash of white light blinded his vision, and his arms tingled with numbness.
By the time Li Tianque regained his senses, he realized that the bone he had just been holding was already shattered into several pieces, and the web of his thumb was... completely helpless.
Although Li Tianque did not know what she was contemplating, he was quite certain that if she wanted to break this door open, the chances were practically zero.
He watched as Chu slowly retreated, guessing that she was probably about to give up.
That would be for the best; if she gave up, he wouldn't have to watch any damn videotape.
What if this videotape was the same model as Aunt Sadako's? Wouldn't he be in terrible trouble then?
Thinking about the videotape, and then looking at Chu's appearance, Li Tianque truly resisted this activity from the bottom of his heart.

"Ahem, Chu, there's probably no way to get through this door. My companions should be here soon. How about we wait for them to come and help you open it?"
Chu did not answer, but instead stared fixedly at the rotting security door.
After staring for quite a while, she suddenly spoke:
"Step back, I'm going in!"
"You're going in?" Li Tianque stared at Chu in astonishment, finding it hard to believe his ears.
Is this some kind of hallucination caused by my black-market medicine running out?
Or is this person simply a lunatic who loves to babble nonsense?
After trying just once with that bone crowbar and getting zero reaction from the door, she was now saying she was going in? How was she planning to get in?
Could this person actually practice wall-passing sorcery or something?
Just as Li Tianque was letting his imagination run wild, Chu suddenly sprinted rapidly away from the door.
Her running speed was terrifyingly fast, and her wet, blood-stained hair broke free from the tiger-tendon binding, flying wildly upward all at once like a crimson rose suddenly blooming in the darkness.
Li Tianque stood there completely bewildered, thinking to himself, *No way. Is this person so unable to accept failing to get through the door that she's losing her mind, ready to commit suicide by smashing into the wall?*
Isn't this woman's psychological endurance a bit too poor? More importantly, if she really commits suicide, what's going to happen to Fatty Bi?
"Hey, hey, hey... Don't be rash!" Li Tianque cried out in alarm, hurriedly trying to stop her.
Yet, something even more shocking to Li Tianque happened shortly after:
After sprinting toward the wall, Chu suddenly kicked off it at the very moment she was about to crash into it.
The white clothes stained with blood billowed instantly, and this blood-colored rose blossomed brilliantly against the wall.
Mid-air, using the wall as a buffer, Chu flipped and spun in the air with a movement akin to a parkour practitioner, and then shot toward the door like a bullet fired from a shell.
The entire process was smooth and fluid, leaving Li Tianque dumbfounded.
The next second, a rumbling crash echoed from the wall beside him, and a large shower of dust and gravel was shaken down from the ceiling.
Li Tianque coughed violently from the thick dust, barely able to keep his eyes open.
Waving away the flying dust with difficulty, Li Tianque forced himself to look toward the door.
As the dust drifted down, Li Tianque discovered that this security door had actually been kicked out of shape by Chu's kick, wedging crookedly against the doorframe!
The iron frame above the security door had also snapped, leaving the entire door hanging by a thread, while Chu stumbled and fell to the ground, her blood-red hair cascading down to obscure her face.
Good heavens...
Is this an operation a human being can possibly pull off?
Li Tianque coughed violently from the pervasive dust and looked with difficulty in Chu's direction.
"You... Are you alright?" Li Tianque asked.
Chu remained silent for a moment, then commanded in a gloomy tone:
"Open the door!"
Li Tianque looked at Chu collapsed on the ground and did not go over to open the door. Instead, a bold plan slowly formed in his mind... "Hey, hey, hey... Don't be rash!" Li Tianque cried out in alarm, hurriedly trying to stop her.
