The Secret to Picking Up Girls

"Or else, let's call!" Zhuo MM was on the verge of tears, her hand trembling as she pulled out her phone. To her surprise, the phone, which had full signal bars just moments ago, now showed no signal at all. "That's impossible! I was just chatting on QQ! How can there be no signal now?" Zhuo Yubin looked at the phone in disbelief. Zhang Yuze frowned and said, "Maybe there's a problem with the mobile signal!"

"Is that so!" Although Zhuo Yubin felt a bit doubtful, it was the only explanation they had at the moment.

"Don't be afraid. Aren't we still here with you?" Wu Xinyu gently patted Zhuo Yubin's shoulder, comforting him.

"Yeah! But, brother, what should we do now?" Perhaps feeling reassured by the presence of the two people beside him, Zhuo Yubin's expression improved considerably.

"Given the current situation, we can only wait until dawn to go back," Zhang Yuze said, narrowing his eyes slightly.

Zhang Yuze's extremely calm demeanor reassured the two girls beside him.

"We... we have to wait until dawn?" Zhuo Yubin's face was very pale, his large eyes nervously scanning the surroundings.

"Yeah! With brother here, don't be afraid. Brother will protect you." As he spoke, Zhang Yuze gently embraced Zhuo Yubin MM's delicate body.

Zhang Yuze's actions caused Wu Xinyu to internally grumble with dissatisfaction: 'Damn Zhang Yuze, Yubin is a girl, but am I not? Why only dote on her and not me?'

At this moment, Zhang Yuze's heart was far from calm. He thought to himself: 'These Yin spirits are an energy manifestation of people's deaths in the world. This is scientifically supported and not some strange phenomenon.

But this energy usually dissipates automatically after a person's death. How can so many appear at the same time this time?' This was precisely what Zhang Yuze couldn't understand.

"Brother, I heard that today is the local Ghost Festival!" Just then, Zhuo Yubin, who was in Zhang Yuze's arms, suddenly said to Zhang Yuze.

"What? The local Ghost Festival?" Zhang Yuze's expression shifted as he asked her with some surprise.

"Yes! It's today! I heard it from my classmates," Zhuo Yubin said to Zhang Yuze with a very certain look on her face.

Zhang Yuze's gaze fell on Wu Xinyu's face. Wu Xinyu, seeing Zhang Yuze's gaze on her, also nodded slightly to Zhang Yuze, seemingly confirming Zhuo MM's words.

Zhang Yuze certainly knew about the local Ghost Festival, which was actually the time of year when Yin energy was at its strongest. At this time, the energy of those Yin spirits would be greatly enhanced, and they would not immediately disappear after death, but would linger in the human world for a period of time.

Could it be related to this?

Suddenly, Zhang Yuze's expression changed, and he quickly put his arms around the two girls beside him, saying to them: "Don't breathe!"

Because Zhang Yuze felt an extremely powerful energy fluctuation around him. From the intense Yin energy, Zhang Yuze felt that they were obviously two extremely strong Yin spirits.

Suddenly, two blurry figures, one black and one white, appeared in front of the three.

Zhuo MM, who was lying in Zhang Yuze's arms, desperately pinched her nose to stop herself from breathing, but Zhang Yuze, looking at her face turning red from holding her breath, knew she couldn't hold on for much longer.
