Chapter 65: Be Friendly, Help Each Other!

Xu Wang was thoroughly familiar with the plot.

He knew that Chris had been punished by the gym teacher, Ms. Desjardin, and barred from attending the prom because she had previously led a campaign of bullying against Carrie.

Harboring a deep grudge, Chris had enlisted her boyfriend, Billy, to help her exact revenge on Carrie during the prom.

The two of them were hiding right above the stage at this very moment.

If Xu Wang found them in advance, he could prevent this tragedy.

However, the prom was of utmost importance to Carrie.

Aided indirectly by Tommy and the rigged voting results orchestrated by Chris, Carrie would indeed be able to regain some of her self-confidence.

Xu Wang did not want to ruin this outcome.

Moreover, Xu Wang wanted to wait by the stump for the rabbit to crash into it—waiting for them to make a move so he could catch them red-handed.

Then, he would hand them directly over to the police to face the consequences they deserved.

"Jason, go take action. Remember to be friendly, and I have some things to do as well," Xu Wang instructed with a solemn expression.

Jason nodded, turned, and walked away.

Xu Wang also nodded and walked toward the backstage area.

Leaving only Tie Zhu the dog standing dumbly in place, looking left and right, completely at a loss as to what to do.

"Woof?"

Ultimately, Tie Zhu decided to do something within its capabilities.

It darted away in a flash, following canine instincts to pee in every corner of the venue to mark its territory.

Carrie and Tommy sat facing each other in chairs.

Tommy seemed entirely comfortable in such an environment, continually smiling and greeting the people around him.

Although Carrie had summoned the courage to come to the venue, she still felt as though everyone was looking at her with strange eyes.

This made Carrie quite uneasy.

Even while sitting in the chair, she still shrank her shoulders like a frightened little animal.

"Shall we go dance?" Tommy invited.

Seeing Carrie's worried and frightened expression, he immediately corrected himself, "Perhaps we can wait for a slower tune."

Asking an introverted girl who was usually subjected to constant bullying to dance to high-energy music was indeed asking a bit too much of Carrie.

"Okay," Carrie nodded with a smile.

Tommy smiled as well.

The atmosphere between the two grew increasingly relaxed and harmonious.

Just then, a dark shadow approached the table, its tall figure directly blocking the view of the two.

Both Tommy and Carrie were visibly startled, turning their heads with stiff movements.

Then they discovered they could see nothing at all.

So they lifted their heads in unison.

Only then did they meet the gaze of the two-meter-tall Jason.

Although under Xu Wang's guidance, Jason was no longer quite as terrifying, his massive physique, coupled with the hockey mask bearing a torn-open mouth, still exerted an overwhelming sense of oppression!

"Gulp!"

Faced with Jason, who stood directly in front of them without moving a muscle and stared straight at them, Tommy couldn't help but swallow hard.

"H-Hello, is there something you need? Are you a student from another high school? I don't think I've seen you before." Tommy nervously started a conversation with Jason.

Jason still didn't say a word.

He just stood there, silently staring at them.

He was earnestly fulfilling the task entrusted to him by Xu Wang.

"Well, it seems you aren't much for talking," Tommy sighed, then glanced at Carrie beside him. "Carrie, shall we change our seats?"

Ever since Jason arrived, Carrie had been drawn by the peculiar aura emanating from him, unable to stop staring.

It wasn't until Tommy called her name twice that she snapped out of it, hurriedly standing up and following Tommy to a different seat.

To her surprise, that hulking figure of Jason followed them right over!

Jason's behavior looked very much like a provocation.

Yet, oddly enough, Jason made no provocative gestures whatsoever.

He simply stood there like a life-sized mannequin, staring motionlessly at them.

Jason still remembered Xu Wang's instruction to remain friendly.

Therefore, the face beneath Jason's mask was actually smiling.

It was just that the mask blocked it, making it invisible to others.

Seeing that Jason made no further moves, Tommy, though feeling rather awkward, had no choice but to try his best to ignore Jason's existence.

He tried to resume chatting with Carrie.

However, because Jason stood by like a wooden stake, blinking unblinkingly at them, they felt thoroughly uncomfortable and deeply awkward.

By the end, neither of them knew what to say, and they could only exchange awkward, forced smiles.

"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

Finding the atmosphere somewhat unbearable, Tommy decided to head to the washroom first.

Carrie looked as though she had just been granted an amnesty, nodding hastily. "Please go ahead."

And so, Tommy went to the restroom.

Now Jason's little brain short-circuited somewhat!

Xu Wang had told Jason to keep an eye on these two.

But now the two had split up, and there was only of him—what should he do?

Just as Jason was getting so anxious his head felt like it was about to smoke, a flash of inspiration hit him, and he suddenly came up with an idea.

"Hey, hey, hey? What are you doing?" Carrie asked, growing nervous as Jason suddenly walked toward her.

Then Jason scooped Carrie up, hoisting her over his shoulder just as if he were carrying a sack of pork, and walked toward the restroom.

Carrie was utterly dumbfounded.

Having partially awakened her psionic powers, she could sense that Jason harbored no malice toward her.

Thus, subconsciously, she put up no resistance.

Of course, due to her upbringing and environment, she was also accustomed to escaping rather than resisting...

She simply let Jason carry her across half the venue.

Noticing Jason's action, Xu Wang gave a very gratified thumbs-up!

How wonderful!

Our little Jason actually knows how to pick up a girl now!

Then Xu Wang cupped his hands around his mouth like a megaphone and shouted at Jason, "Remember to be friendly! Be friendly! Offer them assistance!"

Encouraged by Xu Wang, Jason nodded immediately and quickened his pace.

Before long, he carried Carrie straight into the men's restroom.

Now, perfect—he could keep an eye on both of them at the same time once again.

Borne on Jason's shoulder with her head hanging backward, Carrie could only see Jason's back.

At first, she hadn't known where Jason was taking her.

It wasn't until she saw the floor tiles and heard Tommy's exclamation of shock that Carrie instantly realized where she had been brought!

She struggled briefly, but couldn't break free from Jason's grip at all, and ultimately chose to play dead.

As for Jason, he slowly walked over to the urinal and stood in intimate tandem with Tommy.

Jason pressed right up against Tommy, lowering his head and staring unblinkingly at him.

Do you know when a person is most helpless?

A person is most helpless when using the restroom.

Especially since Tommy had already dropped his pants and was already halfway through peeing; even if he wanted to hold it back, he couldn't.

With Jason standing right beside him, he felt even more helpless!

"Can you please go outside first?! No matter what you want, let me finish peeing first, okay?!"

Beaded with cold sweat, Tommy looked like he was about to cry from anxiety.

Jason gave no reply.

Lowering his head, he recalled Xu Wang's admonition to be friendly and helpful.

So he resolutely reached out a hand toward Tommy.

Noticing Jason's movement, Tommy's eyes widened abruptly!

Bloodshot veins rapidly filled his eyeballs!

He immediately intended to make a run for it.

Yet the friendly Jason still grabbed hold to steady him, meticulously adjusting the trajectory.

At that very instant!

Tommy's soul seemed to be instantly sucked out of his body.

His whole being turned completely ashen.

In the span of just a few short seconds, his entire life seemed to flash before his eyes.

Some people are still alive, but they are already socially dead...

By the time the three of them finally left the men's restroom together, Tommy still wore a half-dead expression.

As gentle music drifted through the air, Tommy had no idea how he had even managed to arrive at the center of the dance floor.

The tall, robust Jason held Carrie and Tommy in his arms as if they were a pair of rag dolls, swaying with them in the middle of the dance floor.

At the back of the stage, Xu Wang watched Jason's antics with immense satisfaction, tears welling up in his eyes from being deeply moved.

He casually grabbed a passing waiter carrying drinks, pointed at Jason, and declared, "See that? Jason, that's my good boy!"

Terrified, the waiter hurried as far away from Xu Wang as possible.

Only then did Xu Wang snap back to reality. "Oh, right, I have things to do."

With that, he switched his personal terminal to camera mode, turned around, and scrambled up the upper structure of the stage just like a spider.
