Deviation: Expeditions of a Non-Human Group

Chapter 12
Lin Xi smiled awkwardly and said, "Well... tell me who Yi Han is first."

Xu Yan said: "Yi Han, I'm probably my boss. I can answer other questions for you, but you have to be mentally prepared first."

Lin Xi nodded and said, "Didn't you say that I will have a chance to know later? Why can you tell me now?"

Xu Yan thought for a while and said, "That's true, but it's meaningless to hide these things from you. Let me tell you now. Ye Lingfeng and I are neither human nor ghost, but half-human and half-ghost. We died in the previous life. Later, when we arrived at Naihe Bridge, like Lu Yang, he didn’t drink Mengpo soup. The difference is that Lu Yang survived after meeting Yi Han, while we met a little ghost who directed us to a place, saying that We were officials in the underworld, and Ye Lingfeng and I became prime ministers on the left and prime ministers on the right. At first we were treated very well, but then a man who claimed to be the king of the underworld injected some soul power into our bodies. It is said that cultivation is beneficial , In fact, he wanted us to be his puppet ministers, and later we helped him do some things, and he promised us a wish, so we came to the world."

Lin Xi said thoughtfully, "Then this Pluto is Yi Han?"

Xu Yan nodded and said, "Yes, it's him. As for why you can see us, we don't know."

"What does the night state of Juyuan Road mean?"

Xu Yan said: "The area around Juyuan Road is very cloudy. I think it has something to do with that antique shop, so there is a night state."

Lin Xi responded, breathing a little short of breath, what are these?What half-human, half-ghost, the amount of information was too much, which made her unable to accept it for a while.

Lin Xi lowered his head weakly, Xu Yan said: "It's okay, some things will be understood after you get used to them."

Lin Xi nodded and said, "I see, what does that 'destination' mean? What's going on?"

Xu Yan said: "It's a carnival at night in the underworld. Human beings can't see it and can't get in. As for why you can get in, I don't know."

Lin Xi froze for a moment, and asked hesitantly, "Then... am I human?"

This question seemed a little ridiculous, but none of them could laugh.

Xu Yan said seriously: "In theory, it should be, but I can't guarantee it."

Lin Xi was stunned again, that is to say, she might not even be human?
"Okay, you go back, it's getting late, do you want me to take you back?"

Lin Xi thought for a while, but still nodded. Just as she was about to tell him where her school was, a call came suddenly, it was Su Chen.After Lin Xi got connected, Su Chen's anxious voice came: "I finally got through to you. It was always showing that you were not in the service area and there was no signal. Where did you go just now?"

Lin Xi said: "Well...the phone ran out of battery just now, and it was just charged."

Su Chen obviously didn't believe it, "I've been calling you for the past few days, have you been without electricity for the past few days? Also, I didn't find you when I went to the hospital that day."

Although he didn't press the hands-free button, but with Xu Yan's hearing ability beyond ordinary people, he finally couldn't listen anymore. He grabbed the phone from her hand and said, "Don't worry." Then he hung up without hesitation.

Lin Xi told Xu Yan where the school was, and within less than a second, he arrived at the school's dormitory downstairs, blinking in surprise.

Xu Yan smiled softly and said, "Go back quickly."

Lin Xi walked a few steps, then turned around and smiled at him, saying, "Goodbye."

Xu Yan's smile deepened, and his eyes twinkled like stars.

Lin Xi ran into the door of the dormitory building, then turned around and waved at him. When he walked to the second floor and looked through the window, he was still waiting for him to arrive at the dormitory.

When Lin Xi arrived at the dormitory, she stared blankly at the dark room, then ran to the balcony, she looked at Xu Yan, and Xu Yan also looked at her.

Lin Xi waved to him again, and he nodded and left.Lin Xi couldn't help letting out a long sigh as he watched his receding back. This feeling was really subtle, but it was undeniable that he made her feel very comfortable.

When Lin Xi turned around and wanted to rest on the bed, she suddenly saw a dark figure not far away. It could be seen that it was a woman with loose hair. She lowered her head heavily, her hair hanging down to her forehead.It looks a bit like a typical female ghost image in horror movies.

Since the light was not turned on, Lin Xi couldn't see her face clearly, and it was even more blurred by the faint moonlight, even a little scary.

"Who are you?" Lin Xi shouted pretending to be calm, but the trembling voice betrayed Lin Xi's panic.

She didn't speak, but approached Lin Xi step by step, her pace was very slow, Lin Xi didn't retreat, but also approached her, because she seemed to vaguely recognize who it was.

"Wu Jingli." Lin Xi called softly.

That's right, this upright-looking, quiet girl is exactly the Wu Jingli who disappeared suddenly a few days ago.

Now, as if a switch had been turned on, she suddenly raised her head again, her seemingly harmless face was full of worry.She said softly: "Lin Xi, are you okay? I haven't come to school for the past few days. I'm very worried about you."

Lin Xi smiled and said, "I'm fine, it's just some things, there's nothing to worry about."

Wu Jingli nodded, and said, "Do you know where Lu Yang went?"

Lin Xi hesitated for a while, but chose to tell her the truth: "After she ran out that day, she accidentally got into a car accident and was not rescued."

Wu Jingli widened her eyes: "You...you mean... Lu Yang is dead?"

Lin Xi nodded heavily, not seeing the ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.

Wu Jingli dodged her eyes and said, "Forget it, why don't we go to bed first, it's getting late."

Lin Xi nodded, and after a while, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Lin Xi, who was sleeping, suddenly felt shortness of breath, as if she was being oppressed by something. Lin Xi wanted to shake her head, but it seemed like she was being shackled.

Lin Xi slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a "person" with red eyes and torn lips and teeth, but he looked very familiar.

Its posture was a bit ridiculous, with one hand holding Lin Xi's head, and the other tightly strangling her neck.

She tentatively asked: "Wu Jingli?"

The eyes of the person in front of her tightened, she suddenly screamed, stepped back, and fainted heavily.

Lin Xi quickly put on a piece of clothing and stepped forward to help her. She opened her eyes and let him hold her.She murmured, "Lin Xi..."

Lin Xi suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck, and Wu Jingli was pressing the dagger against Lin Xi's neck.

Lin Xi pushed her away forcefully, but she made another gesture to pounce on her.
Lin Xi quickly rolled aside and said, "Wu Jingli, calm down."

The dagger slipped from her hand, and tears flowed instantly.

"Lin Xi, I'm sorry, please listen to my explanation."

Her usually quiet face was full of fear, and her hair, which was always neatly dressed, was very messy.

Lin Xi deliberately lowered her voice, and asked, "Why didn't you go to the classroom that day, why are you killing me now? I felt something was wrong with you last night."

Wu Jingli's facial features were distorted for a while, she covered her face with force, and said in a trembling voice: "Please forgive me, I beg you to forgive me, Lin Xi. I will tell you everything."

Lin Xi nodded to signal her to continue talking.

"After you quarreled with Lu Yang that night, I felt a little restlessness in my body. After you left the next morning, I felt an unprecedented sense of oppression, and was controlled by an inexplicable force. Then I felt a sharp pain in my body, and then I passed out, as you saw just now, after a while, I got up from the bed in the dormitory, thinking it was just a dream, I didn't pay attention, but I didn't think that after the 'dream' woke up, the real nightmare began."

Lin Xi asked with some doubts: "Nightmare?"

Wu Jingli nodded and said: "In the past few days, I often feel that I am out of control, doing things that I would never even think about. Talking back to the teacher, eating snacks in class, dozing off, chatting with the same table, deliberately approaching some boys , secretly put some harmful substances in the girl’s makeup box, quarreled with classmates... and when I did those things, I was unconscious, and when I returned to normal state, they all looked at me with strange eyes , and then I will feel very uncomfortable in my heart, and then the restlessness will come back, and my normal state is getting shorter and shorter recently. I can clearly feel it, and I heard that sometimes my eyes will be red, and I have recovered I haven't been to class for a few days, in order not to hurt them, but also to protect myself."
