Chapter 52

"Another person died."

In a hotel near the school, Ye Shangyu said, "At 7 o'clock this morning, a student named Deng Fei called the police and said that his roommate disappeared last night."

"The missing student is Du Han. Deng Fei got up at 6:30 this morning and found that Du Han's quilt was messy, his coat and shoes were there, but Du Han's pajamas were missing. In addition, there was a dustpan on the sink, and Du Han's slippers were also left next to the sink, as if he had walked around in the dormitory last night. According to Deng Fei, Du Han mentioned a ghost story about 'an extra person in the dormitory' before he disappeared."

"An extra person... File No. 12."

Bai Yan said, but no one responded.

He looked at Luo Xing, who was leaning against the head of the bed with a pillow in his arms, sleeping soundly.

Because of his wrong sleeping posture, his chest was slightly heaving, his cheeks were imprinted with a pair of shallow dimples, and a trace of crystal saliva flowed from his mouth.

Luo Xing went to bed at around 4 o'clock last night, and got up to go out and meet up not long after sleeping. Even a high school student who is used to doing exercises at night can't hold on after sleeping for more than three hours.

"What's wrong with Luo Xing?" Ye Shangyu looked up from the screen and asked after taking a look.

"Luo Xing didn't sleep when he wanted to investigate the post. He said he could do questions when he was bored, so he volunteered to take on the job of observing the forum. The post appeared at 4:05 in the morning, and he went to bed to rest."

"Yeah." Ye Shangyu responded, indicating that she knew.

Bai Yan flipped out the No. 12 file and compared it: "The president once went to a residential building with a member to investigate. During the investigation, the president suddenly remembered that he always investigated alone. How could a member follow him and see through the ghost's identity. However, the president remained calm and pretended that he had not remembered this matter until he was close to the window, then he immediately jumped out of the window and escaped.

The president's room was on the fourth floor. After jumping down, he broke several ribs. He insisted on crawling out of the community in pain and got rid of the evil ghost's sight."

"4th floor..." Ye Shangyu frowned: "Du Han and his friends live on the 8th floor. There is still hard concrete under the dormitory building. According to this escape method, this is a dead end!"

"We can change dormitories." Bai Yan said softly: "NPCs don't know the truth, but we have triggered the ghost story, so we can choose the place where the ghost story occurs. Change dormitories with others in advance, such as changing to the first floor, and then you can run down."

"I'm not just worried about this." Ye Shangyu stopped typing: "Can you Is it guaranteed that the life path in the file is correct?

When the file was written, the president was a human being, and he was undoubtedly on the side of humans, but he had already died. We took over the file after his death. Who knows if he, who has become a ghost, will tamper with the content of the file? "

"It makes sense. The new ghost story was also written by him. If I were a ghost, I would definitely modify the life path. Otherwise, we can pass the level after memorizing the file. This is too simple. "

Bai Yan put down the file, lowered his head and pondered: "Two ghost stories have happened now, and there are three left. There are already two NPCs in front to help us clear the mines. I don’t know if the remaining ones..."

"Impossible, I have tried it." Ye Shangyu interrupted him: "This morning I asked a roommate to click on this post, but she said she couldn’t open it at all. App will not let us pass the level easily. Obviously, the last three ghost stories are left for players. We each have one, and no one can escape. "

"Heh, as expected. "Bai Yan chuckled lightly, and he also understood the nature of App.

If it is so easy to pass the level, there will not be so many people cursing App on the forum.

Seeing Luo Xing still sleeping, Bai Yan opened his phone and stared at the post called "Real Strange Stories" in a daze.

Now, there is an urgent problem in front of them. The NPCs will obviously not participate in the remaining strange stories.

Because they don't know what the first two NPCs encountered, they have no way of knowing whether the life path recorded in the archives is credible.

Then, the first player to participate in the strange story has the most difficult and dangerous task.

Bai Yan looked up at Ye Shangyu and found that Ye Shangyu was also silently looking at him.

Both of them had the same ghost idea. In the end, it was Ye Shangyu who said first, "You go?"

"Ladies first."

"Ladies first is not used for this kind of thing. You are a man after all. Show your gentlemanly demeanor."

Seeing that Bai Yan didn't buy it, Ye Shangyu didn't get angry. She looked directly into Bai Yan's eyes and smiled meaningfully: "Bai Yan, you don't have to be like this. I actually know you."

"Oh?"

"You haven't seen me, but I know you very well. Let's take one thing you don't want people to know. You have a friend named Wang, who is a good man who has been on the news a lot."

Bai Yan's eyes darkened.

"If this is not enough, I'll add one more thing. Your hair was not originally this color, right?"

"Let's go out and talk."

Bai Yan said expressionlessly.

"Okay, let's go out and talk." Ye Shangyu also restrained her smile. She put the notebook on the bed and stood up.

The two of them left Luo Xing, who was smacking his lips in his dream, and closed the door and left the room.

In the corridor, Bai Yan looked at Ye Shangyu with an inexplicable expression: "Are you threatening me?"

"I dare not." Ye Shangyu shook his head and pointed to his forehead with his index finger and said: "I know you have a problem here. I have seen a psychologist many times. But the post on the forum proves that your disease has not been cured. I dare not provoke a person with a brain problem."

After hearing Ye Shangyu bluntly say that he was mentally ill, Bai Yan calmed down and the restlessness in his heart disappeared.

If it was just to threaten him, Ye Shangyu wouldn't even say this. Bai Yan could feel that Ye Shangyu was not trying to anger him, but had another purpose.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"I am Ms. Y." Ye Shangyu's expression became serious: "You should have seen the post I posted. What do you think of it?"

Ms. Y?

Bai Yan's expression changed slightly when he heard Ye Shangyu self-reported his identity. He quickly recalled the content of that post and asked with some uncertainty: "Is the content of that post all true?"

"It's all my personal experience." Ye Shangyu pointed out: "The information in that research institute is very complete. There are many records of dealing with ghosts, even more than those shared by players on the forum. The researchers inside are also experienced. Rich, if they are players, they can at least survive to the hard mode, but it is a pity..."

Ye Shangyu shook his head and just looked at Bai Yan, waiting for his answer.

"In the apocalyptic world, there are ghosts outside the institute..."

Bai Yan sensed what Ye Shangyu wanted to tell him, and after contacting the red-faced map of the Ghost Story Society, he guessed: "Could this world eventually become like that?"

"Um."

Ye Shangyu nodded, still looking at him quietly without saying anything extra.

"What else? What on earth do you want to tell me?"

Ye Shangyu asked him to come out because she had something to tell him, but she only said half of it and then kept silent, like watching a monkey, which made him think that Bai Yan was very unhappy.

He didn't feel surprised that Ye Shangyu learned about his real-life information.

Just looking at Ye Shangyu's skills in invading the police, it would not be difficult to find him through the name Wang Ze.

Bai Yan rubbed his temples and closed his eyes to think about the meaning of Ye Shangyu's words.

After a long time, Bai Yan suddenly raised his head, looked into Ye Shangyu's eyes and said, "Do you not want to say it, or can't you say it?"

"I can't say it in real life. If I say it in the game, I'm afraid it will target me. I can't die now."

Bai Yan nodded clearly, this should refer to the App.

There is no way to tell the news about the App in reality, and he has tried this. But it was said that he would be targeted in the game. This was the first time he heard about it.

Ye Shangyu was still looking at him expectantly, but she gave too few clues and he really couldn't guess more.

A trace of helplessness flashed across Bai Yan's eyebrows. He didn't want to guess any more, so he honestly admitted, "I can't think of anything more."

"Okay." Ye Shangyu sighed: "Can I ask, what wish do you want to realize?"

Bai Yan hesitated for a while and finally said: "I want to resurrect someone."

"Wang Ze?" Ye Shangyu said calmly: "Then you don't have to think about this. No matter what you think, you will regret it in the end."

"Is the wish a fraud? Could it be that the person after resurrection is not the original one?" Bai Yan's expression changed drastically.

Ye Shangyu didn't shut up this time. It seemed that he could talk about making wishes.

"A person is still the same person, but if he knew the price of his resurrection, he would probably wish he had never lived...

Oh, by the way, I forgot that you have a mental problem, maybe this will make you happier..."

Ye Shangyu said a lot of things without meaning. Seeing that Bai Yan's face was getting darker and darker, she suddenly stopped and said sincerely: "Seeing that I have revealed so much to you, will you ever want to understand what I said? Can you promise me one thing?"

"I promise, this matter is suitable for you, and you won't feel unhappy." Her tone was not urgent, as if she felt that Bai Yan would definitely agree in the future.

"No, why should I promise you?" Bai Yan refused. Ye Shangyu said a lot, and his mind was very confused now.

The only thing he understood very clearly was that the app was really not that kind, and there was something very wrong with the wish that came with the gift package. According to the information revealed by Ye Shangyu, the wish can be realized, but there will be a heavy price to pay for realizing the wish.

What price would make a resurrected person wish he had never lived?

Could it be that Wang Ze knew that he resurrected him just to stab him to death again?

Bai Yan didn't think Ye Shangyu even knew this. He had never told anyone this.

Thinking of what Ye Shangyu had been trying to tell him, but was afraid to say it due to the restrictions of the app, Bai Yan felt that Ye Shangyu must be hinting at something, but he couldn't think of it yet.
