My Masked Doctor System

A Lowly Janitor

"Logan, a patient just left room 1A. You need to clean it up right away before the next one gets there."

Logan Kane, the hospital janitor with a sturdy build and a handsome face, turned to the nurse.

"Room 1A? Isn't that Ariana's area?" Logan asked as he organized his cleaning supplies.

The nurse looked at Logan with a hint of sarcasm before replying, "Yes, your wife is taking care of patients there. Maybe if you're lucky, you might see her."

Logan grinned widely. The chance to see his wife at work was rare. Ariana was always busy and even avoided meeting during breaks.

"Alright, I'll head there!" he said.

However, before Logan could leave, the nurse handed him a plastic bag.

"Give this to Ariana," the nurse said. It's some condoms."

Logan frowned. "What for?"

The nurse shook her head. "Just ask your wife."

Logan chose not to dwell on it and hurried to room 1A.

"Uhh... Ahhh..."

Standing before the door, Logan heard familiar yet unsettling noises.

"Ariana?"

But there was no reply, only the moans growing louder.

"Harder, Bruno, harder!"

When Logan heard those words, his heart skipped a beat.

"She's cheating on me!" Logan exclaimed, his voice filled with disbelief and hurt.

Without hesitation, Logan broke down the locked door with his strength, his muscular frame effortlessly ripping it off its hinges.

As the door swung open, he witnessed Bruno and his wife locked in a passionate embrace, both naked.

Logan felt his world collapse, plunging into the deepest abyss of despair. He looked into Ariana's eyes, seeking remorse, but found only a burning, angry gaze.

"YOU BASTARD!" Ariana screamed. "You entered without my permission! Are you insane?!"

Logan's heart shattered. Powerless, he sank.

"You jerk! Get out of this room!" Bruno shouted. "Or I'll get HR to fire you!"

Logan looked at his wife with a pained expression. "Ariana, why are you doing this to me? I've sacrificed everything for you. But what have you given me?"

Ariana spat on the floor. "That expensive bag? It came from Bruno's money. It's only fair I give him something I've never given you."

Logan trembled. "I love you with all my heart. You once said money couldn't replace love!"

Ariana sneered, "You say that because you don't have money. Money always wins over love!"

Bruno approached, fists clenched. "Leave now, or I'll drag you out."

Logan stood firm. "If I leave, it'll be as a man, even if it's as a corpse."

Bruno laughed loudly. "Then don't blame me for being rough!" he yelled, throwing a punch at Logan.

Logan, skilled in karate, easily dodged and kicked Bruno's head.

BANG! SPLASH!

Bruno fell, teeth and blood scattering.

"Stop!" Ariana screamed in fear. "Logan, have you lost your mind?!"

Bruno tried to crawl away from Logan, terrified. "Call security!"

Before Ariana could react, security officers arrived at the sound of commotion.

"What's going on here?!" one of the guards shouted, his voice filled with confusion and panic at the unfolding chaos.

Amid the tension, Ariana pointed at Logan, her voice slicing through the air. "Arrest him! He's trouble, and he even touched my lover!"

The officers, unfamiliar with the people present, mistook Logan for the troublemaker. Unaware he was actually the betrayed victim, their emotions stirred upon seeing Bruno bleeding.

"Hands behind your back!" one of the officers barked, swinging his cuffs. "You're under arrest! No place for violence here, no matter the circumstances!"

Logan stood frozen, unresponsive to the officer's command. His silence echoed, as if he hadn't heard a single word the security guard said.

"Don't test us any longer!" cautioned the second officer, drawing a baton from his belt as he moved closer to Logan.

"Stay right where you are," Logan finally broke the silence. "I'll go on my own terms."

Logan turned to face the onlookers, seeing their looks of disdain directed at him. They might have suspected Ariana and Bruno of having an affair, understanding that Logan was simply trying to salvage his dignity. Yet, none offered him any support.

"Hey, looks like that loser just got played," one of them remarked.

Another chimed in, "It's not surprising his wife cheated on him; he's just a loser. He shouldn't be so worked up about it."

"Yeah, I hear you. Logan shouldn't meddle in his wife's affair. Ariana has endured years of hardship with Logan. He should give her the opportunity to enjoy herself beyond the household duties."

"What a fool... such a disgrace!"

Logan's breath caught, his mind almost spinning with the unjust remarks. How could they side with his cheating wife? "Hey, I'm the victim here!" he wanted to shout.

Fearful he might lose control and lash out at everyone in the room, Logan swiftly fled.

He ran until he reached the rear of the hospital, beside a grimy dumpster, where he collapsed and leaned back, trying to catch his breath.

This time, Logan couldn't suppress his tears any longer after years, feeling as though fate had never been on his side throughout his life. Why did he have to be born into this world?

What was the point of all this pride?

"Fuck off!"

BANG!

Logan vented his anger by striking the dumpster next to him. The metal, rough against his skin, caused his hand to start bleeding profusely. Logan paid no heed to the pain.

The flies buzzing around him sounded faintly as if they also agreed with the "trash person" title attached to him.

Logan closed his eyes. Deciding to accept his miserable fate. He planned not to stay in this world much longer, which was full of mockery.

But suddenly...

Thud!

Something hit his head before falling to the ground. Logan looked at the object in confusion.

A black mask...

Logan glanced around, trying to discern where the mask might have come from, but there was nothing.

Intrigued, Logan picked up the black mask and examined it closely.

"Very strange..."

The mask was a deep, intense black, like staring into a starless night sky from the depths of endless darkness.

The aura was mystical and solitary!

As he touched it, Logan found the mask's texture to be incredibly soft and cold, like porcelain stone drenched beneath a mountain waterfall.

A peculiar urge stirred in Logan's heart. Strange whispers in his mind compelled him to put on the mask.

"No harm in trying," Logan muttered to himself.

Logan yielded to the impulse and swiftly placed the mask over his face, only to feel his entire essence being drawn into it.

DING!
