Chapter 158: Chat Transcripts

Bai Yefeng's body under the bed?

And who is that bathing in the bathroom.

......

Jiang Luo's forehead corner jumped down and down, it was both painful and irritating, he took a deep breath and was about to lower his head to check the body under the bed. But the bathroom door was opened, Bai Yefeng came out from inside, he said strangely, "Wife, what are you standing here for?"

Jiang Luo made a move and turned to look at him.

Bai Yefeng was the genius in the National Competition who was famous in the metaphysical world with Qi Ye, and also the first puppet that Jiang Luo found that Chi You had controlled for several years. Regardless of whether he is a human or a ghost, he doesn't seem to have any murderous intentions towards Jiang Luo, and since he wants to pretend to coexist with Jiang Luo, it is best if Jiang Luo doesn't expose him.

But this is a dream world, where death is not really death. Without the limitations of the bottom line of the desire to live, Jiang Luo is foolishly tempted to test Bai Yefeng, but in order to see what Chi You has dragged him into this dream for, he can only regrettably give up the idea of revealing Bai Yefeng.

"It's fine," Jiang Luo smiled, picked up another towel and said, "I'm going to take a shower too. Right Ye Feng, there's nothing in the toilet, right?"

Bai Yefeng said soothingly, "There's nothing inside, don't worry. If anything goes wrong, just yell out to me, and I'll run in and save you."

Jiang Luo smiled politely at him and opened the bathroom door and observed it to make sure there was nothing there before stepping inside.

The toilet's drain circulated pretty fast, and the oxygen was a little thin in the tiny room where fog gummed up the quartered mirrors.

The soles of his feet were still wet, and the smell of cheap shampoo wafted through the air, the hotel's own toiletries. Jiang Luo brought Bai Yefeng and his cell phone in, he clicked on a song on Bai Yefeng's cell phone and played it, then clicked into the forum and opened his cell phone after reading a few ghost experiences, and found that the group messages kept flashing, so a few people in the group were already chatting.

Jiang Luo flipped the message to the top and found that the first sentence was Zhuo Zhongqiu's exclamation.

[I never thought I'd dream of this group. I'm so in love with you guys.]

A stone stirred up a thousand layers of waves, the rest of the people rushed to say: [Dreaming? I'm dreaming, this dream is quite real, I peeled the tangerine on the coffee table, how suddenly fell asleep].

[You're all dreaming. What a coincidence. ......]

By the time Jiang Luo finished scrolling through the messages, the conversation had progressed from mutual suspicion to revealing each other's pasts in order to verify each other's truths. The screen was full of black history, and Jiang Luo was so impressed that he calmly took a screenshot of it. He finally realized that the people in this group were all real people, but they had coincidentally fallen asleep together and entered this dream.

Jiang Luo thought it was something Chi You could do.

He cursed Chi You a few times for his companions, and then joined in the conversation after he had had his fun: [You all stayed in a small hotel?

After talking for a while, Jiang Luo found out about their situation. Except for Lu Youyi, who was in a small hotel with him, the others were scattered in small groups in other places. With the exception of Sai Liaoer, all of them, without exception, had experienced something terrible.

The others in the group are all teasing Sai Liaoer about his good luck, Sai Liaoer himself is a bit confused, only Jiang Luo knows that Sai Liaoer is White Impermanence, ordinary ghosts don't have the guts to challenge White Impermanence.

But that would be strange.

Even if there was no one left in these six families of the Heavenly Master's House and the metaphysics majors in the twelve colleges and universities, there were still the Black and White Irregulars, so how could so many ghostly creatures have appeared in a period of five years?

Black and White Impermanence may not just refer to two people, but to a profession. There were many Hei Wuchang, and many White Impermanence, who were responsible for the dead all over the country. Even if some of the wild ghosts refused to be detained and became grievous ghosts, there shouldn't be so many of them.

He posted this contradictory point to the group, but no one in the group cared, and Zhuo Zhongqiu even advised him: [It's all in a dream, what more logic do you need?

Jiang Luo pondered for a moment, and typed in a single word: [It makes sense.

Bai Yefeng shouted from outside, "Honey, have you seen my cell phone?"

Jiang Luo raises his voice, "I'll take your cell phone and listen to the song."

"Okay," Bai Yefeng said, "but you mustn't click into anything else, and if any messages pop up, you mustn't reply to them."

The words made Jiang Luo narrow his eyes, and he responded with an unmoving "yes," then began to carefully examine Bai Yefeng's cell phone.

At this point, Bai Yefeng's WeChat coincidentally popped up with a message.

[. Is it there?

Jiang Luo didn't reply, but scrolled up, and during the day, Bai Yefeng had talked to "." had talked a few times.

Conversations are few and far between, and Jiang Luo's fingers reach the top with a flick of the finger.

Still." Sent the message first.

[. I'll see you for dinner.

[Bai Yefeng: I'm still hungry.]

[. : You have such a small appetite to-day that you should not be able to eat at night.]

[Bai Yefeng: Hahahahaha, are you kidding me?]

As the fog in the room diminished, Jiang Luo glanced up at the mirror and continued to look down.

[. : Today's coworker was killed by a ghost, half of his brain flower was eaten, and his boss sealed up the bathroom, so I hope you're not sad.]

[Bai Yefeng: I didn't know him well, and I wouldn't be upset if he was eaten.]

[. : How is your relationship with your wife?]

Bai Yefeng: Well, that's good. My wife is young and beautiful, in the prime of her youth. I can eat two more bowls of rice every time I look at him.]

And mention him?

Jiang Luo raised his eyebrows.

[. : Is the meat cooked today?

[Bai Yefeng: Uh-huh.]

[. : I'll see you tonight at three o'clock.]

Jiang Luo read this passage over and over again three times, Bai Yefeng still has a date with someone to meet at three o'clock this evening?

Other than this message, nothing else was out of place. Jiang Luo stood up and shuffled out the door a few minutes later, discreetly locking the bathroom door behind him before walking over to the bed.

Bai Yefeng was leaning on the bed reading a newspaper when Jiang Luo pretended to wipe his hair and handed him his cell phone, "A man just sent you a message, but I didn't bother to read it."

Bai Yefeng was taken aback and was relieved to hear that he hadn't gone to see it, "It's a good thing you didn't, there are ghosts that can kill people through their cell phones, and I wouldn't want to download so many apps if I wasn't going to be working out of my house."

Jiang Luo consoled him for a few moments, then hugged another quilt and got into bed. Bai Yefeng frowned and said with some aggravation, "Wife. Why did you carry an extra quilt?"

Jiang Luo made a pretense of coughing twice, the tail of her eyes picking up and sparkling as she looked at him, "I have a bit of a cold today, I'm afraid of infecting you, so let's sleep under separate blankets tonight."

Bai Yefeng hurriedly asked him how he was doing, and when Jiang Luo indicated that it wasn't serious, he heaved a sigh of relief and said sincerely, "It's good that you're okay."

He was so nervous that a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead, and he looked terrified.

In the dream, Bai Yefeng seems to be a good man who loves his wife.

But Jiang Luo, who was called "wife" by him, just wanted to shut him up.

Jiang Luo smiled at him and pulled the covers over his head, moving away from Bai Yefeng without a trace.

There is a body under the bed, the person next to the bed do not know whether it is a person or a ghost, Jiang Luo has made up his mind not to sleep all night. But without realizing it, his eyes were getting heavier and heavier, and he could feel Bai Yefeng gently getting out of bed, turning off the light, and returning to bed.

As his consciousness fell into a half-asleep, half-awake state, Jiang Luo suddenly remembered Bai Yefeng's chat with "." .".

The slightest hint of something wrong that I had felt earlier came back to the forefront.

Their dialog is so stilted that it's even a little incoherent ......

Jiang Luo repeatedly recollected over and over again, suddenly scalp numbness, a sharp jolt from half-asleep completely awake.

Those conversations can be read completely backwards from back to front!

From the last sentence upwards is what they really meant in their conversation!

At three o'clock in the middle of the night, "." would come to Bai Yefeng for dinner, and Bai Yefeng would prepare meat for "." The meat was Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo's eyes snapped open.

The house was in deep darkness, and before Jiang Luo could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a shadow even darker than the darkness standing right next to his bed, looking straight at him.

It's Bai Yefeng.

Bai Yefeng stood beside the bed for who knows how long, his body stiff, but his eyes were greedy and ghastly as he stared at Jiang Luo. Jiang Luo's heart clenched for a moment, and then he realized that something was wrong.

He stared at Bai Yefeng and slowly got off the bed. Bai Yefeng's eyes rolled to the limit with his movements, but his body stiffened and didn't move.

Jiang Luo quickly put on his shoes and looked at him without blinking, taking another second to glance at the clock hanging on the wall.

Two fifty-seven in the morning.

Three minutes to three.

Jiang Luo cursed lowly, and then celebrated, "Not bad, at least there are still three minutes left."

At that moment, the cell phone placed on Bai Yefeng's bed lit up, and the miserable white light shone on the white pillowcase.

Jiang Luo knew that he should run away, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity, he carefully walked around Bai Yefeng, bent down and brought his cell phone from the bed, opened it and saw that it was still "." Sent a message.

It was a photo of the door of a dilapidated hotel, in the photo, the bright red sign in the light showed a weird color of red and black, the sign read "Happy Hotel", the owner inside the glass door was sitting at the front desk, he was a vicious-looking middle-aged man, his eyes were as disgusting as the mange/□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□, behind the owner of the hotel, there was a narrow staircase trapped in the darkness. narrow staircase trapped in darkness.

[. I'm outside the hotel.

"." It's already here.

Jiang Luo and Bai Yefeng live in 203, and there are two more floors, "." And that's where you'll find it.

Upon closer listening, there seemed to have come from downstairs the sounds of the innkeeper and "." The sound of a conversation.

The innkeeper's voice was curt, "Do the guests want housing?"

Jiang Luo clearly recognizes that ghosts are under his feet.

Without delay, Jiang Luo took nothing and walked straight to the door, and the moment he opened it, Bai Yefeng's cell phone rang again.

Again, a picture plus a sentence.

[. : I'm on the first floor.]

The picture is of the long wooden planks of the staircase in black.

Jiang Luo threw Bai Yefeng's cell phone back and ran upstairs with only his own cell phone in his hand.

In a world where danger is everywhere and holding a ghost's cell phone is tantamount to revealing one's location, Jiang Luo runs straight into the darkness without saying a word.

He had just run to the third floor when he heard a knock on the door from downstairs.

Without much thought, Jiang Luo knew that it must be "." Knocking on the door of 203.

Jiang Luo's footsteps were so light that they barely made a sound; fortunately, he remembered Lu Youyi's room, and everyone in the group had stayed awake in case something else happened during the night.

When he arrived at Lu Youyi's door, Jiang Luo didn't dare to knock on the door, he poked Lu Youyi frantically in the group, but fortunately, Lu Youyi was always looking at his cell phone, and in a few seconds, he opened the door.

Lu Youyi was full of surprise, "Jiang--"

Jiang Luo abruptly covered his mouth, dodged into Lu Youyi's room, gently closed the door, immediately turned off the light and rushed Lu Youyi to make a silent gesture.

Lu Youyi silently covered his mouth and stood with him on either side of the gate, silently listening to the sounds outside.

After about a minute, there were footsteps outside the door coming from the second floor.

Bai Yefeng shouted anxiously, "Wife? Wife?"

Jiang Luo hadn't experienced anything this exciting in a long time, and with his chest pounding, he listened intently to the sounds outside.

Bai Yefeng circled the entire third floor, his footsteps growing more hesitant, and after no luck, he finally left the third floor.

The footsteps disappeared.

Lu Youyi did not know why, but also followed the nervousness of the mood suddenly relaxed, he was about to ask Jiang Luo what was going on, was met with Jiang Luo's stern glare.

-Don't say a word.

Lu Youyi's heart tightened and he hastily shut his mouth.

After a few minutes, there was a sudden sigh from outside their door, "It's really not here ......"

The voice was close to them, so close that it was as if it were pressing its ear against the door of their room, eavesdropping on the voice speaking through the door.

Cold sweat broke out at the corner of Lu Youyi's forehead.

And this time, the voices outside the door finally faded away.
