Without any surprise, as the door opened, a figure suddenly appeared outside, the female ghost’s dead and numb gaze seed to pierce through her body.
At the last mont, so thoughts inexplicably flashed through Xu Yiqiu’s mind. She had never t this man nad Chu Xi and didn’t know if he had now opened the door and escaped into the basent.
She hoped he could survive.
The female ghost walked straight towards her, Xu Yiqiu closed her eyes, quietly awaiting the end. As an experienced player, she always knew such a day would co. For people like them, death as a destination might not be such a relief.
"Be an ordinary person in the next life..."
One second.
Two seconds.
...
A few seconds passed, Xu Yiqiu didn’t feel any pain. Death was much easier than she had imagined.
She opened her eyes little by little, wanting to see the world after death, only to find herself still standing in place, and the female ghost had disappeared.
"Not dead..." Xu Yiqiu lowered her head, incredulously examining herself, indeed not dead, she had no injuries at all.
She had body warmth, a pulse, thoughts... from any angle, she was a completely alive person.
"Ugh... ugh..."
Just when Xu Yiqiu was puzzled, a strange sound ca from behind. She turned around abruptly and saw a horrifying scene; a male corpse was twisted like a pretzel, lying on the hospital bed, dark brown livor mortis covering the exposed skin.
And the "ugh" odd sound ca from another hospital bed right next to it. A man in patient clothing was covering his mouth tightly, curling up his body desperately, as if seeing an extrely terrifying scene, shaking like a leaf.
The bed where the male corpse lay was previously empty. Xu Yiqiu imdiately realized the male corpse was the patient used as a scapegoat before. Tonight he turned into a fierce ghost to co back, but unexpectedly, he was killed by the female ghost again.
And it was precisely the appearance of the male ghost that saved her. It seed that in the female ghost’s eyes, the priority of the other was higher than her own.
Moreover, after killing the male ghost, the female ghost unexpectedly left directly, completely ignoring herself standing behind the door.
Xu Yiqiu, surviving the calamity, didn’t know how to describe her feelings at the mont, feeling a bit at a loss for what to do. But anyway, surviving was the best. Her task was complete, now she needed to find a place to hide.
The first choice was naturally the lounge on the first floor, but then she thought, perhaps the female ghost couldn’t kill two people in the sa room one after another. If she went out now and was killed by a backstab from the female ghost, it would be too unjust.
She decided to stay for the ti being and watch how things unfolded. But just when she was about to close the door and take a rest, an accident happened. From the corner of her eye, she noticed that the male corpse on the hospital bed seed different from before.
Seconds later, Xu Yiqiu gasped. She saw a pair of resentful eyes staring hard at her, and clearly not long ago, the male corpse’s face was turned in another direction. Just in the short ti she was thinking, the male corpse moved silently and turned its head to look at her.
"The corpse ca back to life..."
"No, it has already turned into a ghost, seems to be undying, once the female ghost left, it started stirring again."
"Ugh ugh ugh..." The patient on the other hospital bed seed to have foreseen the danger, covering his head with the quilt, shaking nonstop.
This ti Xu Yiqiu didn’t hesitate at all, she dashed out, not forgetting to close the door behind her. She turned right out the door, sprinted all the way to the lounge at the corner of the hospital lobby, closed the door, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chu Xi, it’s all up to you now..." Xu Yiqiu leaned against the door, murmuring in her heart.
...
Outside the hospital, a light rain started to drizzle, Qu Hong leaned against the back row of seats, wrapped in a thick quilt, resting with her eyes closed, her feet propped up and resting on the front row seats, relaxing her body. This was her way of relieving anxiety.
She believed in Yang Xiao, could accept any outco calmly, even if Yang Xiao lost, leading to the failure of the task, she had nothing to say.
She considered herself not as capable as this young man. If Yang Xiao couldn’t do it, it would be useless for her to try; it was Yang Xiao who gave her the hope to survive.
"Whoosh——"
"Whoosh——"
Qu Hong suddenly opened her eyes. Sitting in the driver’s seat, Boss Sun was currently nodding off, his snores growing louder, actually having fallen asleep.
"Truly heartless..." Qu Hong showed no rcy to this guy and gave him a kick.
This kick carried so personal grievance; this ss was all caused by this damn guy. Although he wasn’t responsible for the hospital scandal, their team of six was indeed hired by this guy. If he hadn’t made this conscience-shocking money, they wouldn’t have provoked the bell female ghost, and perhaps none of this ss would have happened afterward.
Suddenly kicked awake in his sleep, Boss Sun jumped up instantly, his head smacking hard against the car roof. His first reaction was to reach for the car door and scream, "Run! The ghost... the ghost is coming!!"
"You have quite the nerve, still in the mood to sleep?" Qu Hong sneered, her team was down to her and Yang Xiao only, a truly substantial loss.
After confirming there was no ghost coming after him, Boss Sun finally breathed a sigh of relief, defending himself sowhat aggrieved, "You know, in this regard I... I’m not as good as you guys, there’s nothing I can do. Before Boss Chu left, I didn’t rest for a mont, while you all were sleeping, I was still helping you with research."
"But your information was very vague. If the other team weren’t effective, you might as well wait for death." Qu Hong glared at him fiercely.
