Weird Talker

Chapter 260 Near-death Inference and Li Xijiu ([-] words, one chapter.)
we are dead...

This idea was too bold, so bold that Su Yu was completely stunned.

He thought of a person, Xu Tingfang.

Xu Tingfang was one of his few friends in the world of strange stories. Once, Xu Tingfang experienced a strange story called "Close Your Eyes". That strange story was almost incomprehensible, but in the end she and Du Bi'an lived to the end.

Now Xu Tingfang and Du Bi'an are still among the surviving players. Su Yu also heard Xu Tingfang talk about it. The strange talk was a trap from the very beginning of the name, but what was needed in the end was to open his eyes.

But this time, if there is a trap hidden in the name of this strange story called [Death as scheduled], then it is really possible that it is what Xia Nan said!

"If we're already dead, what's the point of light and numbers?" Su Yu asked.

Xia Nan paused for a moment and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, but...if we are already dead, then the way this curse is carried out can be explained."

"All mutations can only be witnessed by us, because we are not living people."

"Based on the premise that we are already dead, what conclusion can we draw, and where is the way to survive?" Su Yu still felt that this line of thinking was a bit unbelievable. "Could it be that what we need to do now is to bring ourselves back to life?"

Su Yu's words stunned Xia Nan. He thought of Liu Jingqing who just cleared the level. Did something bring her back to life?

Or was it some kind of action by her that made herself "come alive"?

"I don't know either. I'm going to contact Yue Qiuchi. Ms. Liu's home has clues to clear the customs. See you later." Xia Nan said.

"Okay." Su Yu hung up the phone, then looked at Cao Xiangrong's phone.

He opened the call log and took a closer look. Sure enough, Cao Xiangrong had received a call before he died...

and many more?

Suddenly, Su Yu's heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have caught something. Looking at the unknown number, his heart was pounding...

----

Time goes back to the present.

Xia Nan called Su Yu first, and then contacted Yue Qiuchi.

However, at this time, Yue Qiuchi was already entangled by the curse.

But the ghost didn't kill her, yes... It was precisely because the ghost didn't kill her that strengthened Xia Nan's speculation.

We are already dead, simply killing, it cannot kill us.

But why did Cao Xiangrong die?
The light... the number of people, both of these points were captured by them.

"Miss Yue, how many people are there with you while waiting for the strange talk?" Xia Nan asked.

"Three..." Yue Qiuchi glanced at Li Gui who was driving, and replied with some confidence, "I'm in the mahjong room..."

"Have you been attacked once?"

"Yes……"

Yue Qiuchi was frightened and uneasy, and could only subconsciously answer Xia Nan's question, but the ghost still ignored her.

And Xia Nan, who got the answer, immediately connected all the known information.

There are five players this time.

Liu Jingqing, Cao Xiangrong, Xia Nan himself, Yue Qiuchi, and Su Yu.

According to the light conditions around each person and the number of people, the words are arranged.

First, Cao Xiangrong, when the strange talk came, he was in a nightclub, there were many people, and the light was not only too much, but also mixed. After the strange talk came, there were still many people around him, and so was the light.

Second, Yue Qiuchi stayed in the mahjong parlor when the strange talk came, and there were three people around him, the light was bright and single, and after the strange talk came, the people around him were still there, and the light was still there.

The third, Liu Jingqing, stayed at home when the strange talk came, alone, the light was bright, and after the strange talk came, she was also alone, the light was still bright, and all the lights in the house were turned on.

Fourth, Su Yu, when the strange story came, he was on the rooftop, alone, with dim light around him, only moonlight. After the strange story came, he was still alone, and the light was still dim.

Fifth, Xia Nan thought about his own situation. He was basically the same as Liu Jingqing, the only difference was that after the strange talk came, he chose to turn off all the lights at home.Therefore, he is the only player with no one around and no light.

It is also the only player who has not encountered any abnormalities.

Strictly speaking, if Su Yu didn't take the initiative to find Cao Xiangrong, he shouldn't encounter any strange phenomena for the time being.

Looking at it this way...the sequence and reasons for being cursed are very obvious.

But what is strange is why Cao Xiangrong died, but Yue Qiuchi escaped when he was attacked for the first time?
Wait... If the light represents whether the player is cursed or not, does the number of people represent the strength of the curse?

Because there were too many people around Cao Xiangrong, he had nothing to do, but Yue Qiuchi still had room to struggle.

Will it be so?
"Sir... I'm a little tired, where should I go to rest?" On the phone, Yue Qiuchi said tremblingly.

Xia Nan could hear clearly on the phone that Yue Qiuchi was held hostage by a ghost pretending to be him and brought into the car. Now the question Yue Qiuchi asked was actually asking her what to do now and how to escape.

However, Xia Nan didn't know...Suddenly, he thought of how Cao Xiangrong died.

Could it be that the ghost wants to take Yue Qiuchi to a crowded place?

In fact, this moment is an excellent timing. This curse is killing people in order. It is currently beside Yue Qiuchi. If Xia Nan hangs up the phone now, he will meet up with Su Yu and go to Liu Jingqing's house to find clues. way.

But he couldn't do nothing. After all, he was a forensic doctor. Although he sounded like a doctor, he belonged to the police system and was indeed a policeman.

By the way, there were sirens just now!
He did hear the police siren on the phone just now, could it be that Yue Qiuchi was arrested?
"Miss Yue, were you in the police car before?"

"Um……"

"why?"

"I... killed..."

When Yue Qiuchi said this, she was still trembling all over, she was already desperate, no matter whether she could get out of the ghost talk game alive or not, her life was over.

"Can you tell me the details?" Xia Nan continued to ask.

"But..." Yue Qiuchi glanced at "Xia Nan" who was driving, she was very frightened, afraid that the ghost would eat her if he turned his head.

"Don't worry about it, just say it boldly, trust me." Xia Nan's voice gave Yue Qiuchi a lot of confidence.

But Yue Qiuchi still hesitated, she was completely unfamiliar with Xia Nan, she couldn't judge whether Xia Nan's move was to restore her confidence, or just to get information from her.

But thinking that Xia Nan had been on the phone all the time, and that she really had nothing to do now, she made up her mind and believed in Xia Nan.

She sat in the back seat, completely ignored "it" according to Xia Nan's words, and said: "When the strange talk came, the lights went out, and then I saw the words "Fate is fixed", and when the lights came on again, my friend's face... ...became mine..."

"I was terrified... I took the glass and stabbed her in the face with the shards and she died..."

"Then I didn't dare to stay in a place with people anymore, so I wanted to go out of the city. I booked an online car-hailing car. When the driver came to pick me up, it seemed that he called the police..."

"I received a call from the online car-hailing service. It was my own voice. She told me not to leave the city. I listened to her and got off the car at the service area..."

"But... when the driver was about to leave, he suddenly became very strange and told me not to walk around..."

"I was very scared. After he left, the clerk in the service area found me, and then I went in and had dinner..."

Yue Qiuchi detailed everything that happened to him!

After listening to it completely, Xia Nan suddenly asked, "You smashed your friend's glass, why did it break?"

"what?"

"When did it break?"

"I have no idea……"

"Did you meet anyone else along the way?"

"No...only online car-hailing drivers and shop assistants in the service area..."

"Has the clerk ever asked you any weird questions?"

"No……"

After Xia Nan finished asking, he finally let out a long breath.

"Okay, Miss Yue..."

Xia Nan closed his eyes, supported his forehead wearily, his blond hair was exposed to the moonlight, and said in a low voice:
"Everything was just to scare you and make you flee to crowded places. But it miscalculated, you went the other way, and chose to go outside the deserted city. So... that call stopped you and asked you to stay temporarily. In the service area."

"The evidence is that the service area is a real scene, but the clerk does not care about the blood stains on your body after the 'assault', because there is no blood stains on your body at all."

"The only ones who saw the blood were you and the driver."

"You didn't kill people, you just fell into the hallucination of the curse."

"In the eyes of your three friends, maybe you just suddenly lost your mind and rushed out of the mahjong room."

"After that, it's in control. It's the driver, it's the phone call, it's the policeman who came to arrest you, it's the driver who hits the policeman."

When Xia Nan said this, Yue Qiuchi was a little dizzy, but she understood and confirmed one thing herself!

That's right... I had blood on my hands before, why didn't the clerk in the service area ask me a question?
Because they are normal human beings, they can't see the blood on my hands at all!That said, in the real world, I don't have blood on my hands!I did not kill!
A burst of ecstasy welled up in Yue Qiuchi's heart, she had now completely believed Xia Nan's words: "But, why did it go to such lengths to play this play on me?"

"Because... it can't kill you at all, it can only guide you, but it can't change your will. Think about it, is it because you told it... that you want it to come and pick you up? "

Yue Qiuchi's heart was shocked!Just like Xia Nan's speculation, she did say something similar!
"The factors that kill you are incomplete... light, number of people, although I don't know the specific reason why the curse needs these two to kill people, but everything it does is indeed to draw you in this direction."

"So now..." Xia Nan said softly, "Jump out of the car."

Xia Nan's last three words seemed to give Yue Qiuchi great strength!

Without any further hesitation, she opened the car door and jumped out of the red car!
Intense pain came from all over the body in an instant, but the next moment, Yue Qiuchi's eyes suddenly opened...

She was actually sitting in the service area, no... she fell asleep lying on the table in the service area!
How can it be? !
I was clearly still on the phone with Xia Nan just now...

She turned her head and saw that the phone was indeed in a call state, and she was indeed talking to Xia Nan!

However, everything just now seemed like a real nightmare. If she couldn't wake up, she would really be taken away by ghosts!
"I understand……"

At this moment, Xia Nan had already left home. On the way to Liu Jingqing's house, he seemed to be crazy, with frantic emotions on his face:

"We are not dead, we are... both alive and dead."

"Light... Humans... It wants us to be recognized by humans as the dead. As long as there are enough lights and enough people... Our appearance and our state can be confirmed, and our state will be recognized by humans in the real world. In observation, collapse is death."

"And if you want to counter this and find a real way out, there is only one way..."

As soon as Xia Nan finished speaking, he stopped abruptly.

"Mr. Xia Nan? Mr. Xia?"

Yue Qiuchi asked anxiously, although she didn't fully understand what Xia Nan meant, judging from his last sentence just now, Xia Nan has obviously found a way out!
But he seems to be in trouble?
At this time... the phone was hung up.

----

On the other side, Xia Nan, who had just left home and was on the way to Liu Jingqing's house, put the phone back in his pocket.

He stood on a sidewalk, a little helpless.

The bright street lamps cast a long shadow on the ground that belonged to him.

When he left home just now, he thought about whether to take an umbrella.

But on the one hand, it may not be useful to bring an umbrella to block the light; on the other hand, in such a late night, there should be no large-scale crowds.

It's just that if they meet three or two people, they still have a chance to escape just like Yue Qiuchi.

However, reality seems to have played a joke on him.

Seven or eight drunk college students staggered onto the sidewalk, holding each other up.

If he remained vigilant, he would be able to avoid them in time, but just now, he was in the middle of analysis, and his attention was completely on the way out.

When Xia Nan found them, it was too late...

"Hey buddy!"

"belch……"

"Come on a cigarette!"

Xia Nan felt a little helpless at the familiar shouting, but sure enough... he was still seen.

The lighting, the number of people...all satisfied, the next moment is.

The moonlight suddenly dimmed a lot, and Xia Nan felt a little shuddering.

The group of drunk college students stopped in unison, their heads bowed.

"Slightly—"

"Gee-"

The crisp sound of bones is particularly eerie in the night.

Xia Nan saw their skin wriggling and their bones changing.

Soon... faces exactly like him appeared...

"You should die."

As if evil spirits drilled out of the human shell, the eight college students had already approached Xia Nan with hideous faces.

He triggers all the conditions of the curse.

Moreover, there are no props on his body, whether it is permanent or one-off.

As for the way out?

He did have some ideas, but that...he couldn't be sure until he confirmed the scene at Liu Jingqing's house.

As for now... eight "Xia Nan" exactly like him surrounded him, and a pair of distorted pale arms stretched out towards him, cold and dead silent... This breath is like hell!

Am I going to die?
Xia Nan didn't expect that his luck would be so bad.

This seems to be the first strange talk after the novice level, right?
I can only blame myself for not being careful...

Xia Nan didn't struggle, he was just pitying that it was too short...too short to see the truth of [Pupil Realm].

He was too curious and too regretful...

Terrible malice surged from all directions, and his soul was about to be devoured by this curse and died completely.

Ice-cold, terrifying, huge and boundless... It, that curse, is eating my soul...

Xia Nan could clearly feel that part of his soul had disappeared forever.

But at this moment...

A tall, dark figure suddenly appeared under the streetlight!

It was so eerie that even the light from the street lamps couldn't make out what it looked like.

However, Xia Nan, who was dying, heard a voice, a... young man's voice:

"Would you mind if I share this body?"

Such a young voice!

It seems that like Qin Manjiang, he is still a college student.

who is it?
It's not like a human, but it's not like a ghost when it can say such things.

At this moment, where does Xia Nan have other choices? He confirmed vaguely:

"it is good……"

"If we can survive...we share this body..."

After being confirmed, the next moment, dark and terrifying shadows scrambled into Xia Nan's body!

Then...his figure disappeared without a trace amidst the crowd of ghosts.

But Xia Nan, whose consciousness was blurred and part of his soul was swallowed, suddenly squeezed another memory into his consciousness...

He was dizzy and passed out completely.

Only at the last moment of sobriety, I saw the most obvious three words in the memory——

Li Xi is right.

　The update is a bit late, I went to watch the World Cup...the delay, sorry.
