#49 - The weirdness is among us
"The spooky story we told during the day has become real."
Chen Fugui's words caused the temperature in the room to plummet. Qiao Kang and the others felt a chill rise from their hearts, and the blood in their bodies seemed to stop flowing.
"What did you say?"
Qiao Kang suspected he had misheard and asked again, uncertainly.
"I said, the spooky story has become real! Damn it, the spooky story we told during the day has come true! The thing from the story was just in our room!"
The veins on Chen Fugui's forehead bulged high, and he almost roared as he finished speaking.
After roaring, his whole person looked desperate again, muttering to himself: "What should we do? We must have been targeted by something strange."
"Brother Gui, don't worry, speak slowly."
Lin Jue squeezed in between Heping Ge and Qiao Kang, and he somehow had a glass of water in his hand: "Drink some water to calm your nerves first."
Chen Fugui took the water and drank it in large gulps.
No matter the situation, drinking a glass of warm water always has a calming effect. Chen Fugui's emotions slowly calmed down. He put the glass on the ground, hugged Yao Yao, and came out from under the table.
"Let's go downstairs. I always feel unsafe in this room."
He looked at the room. Although it was now filled with the aura of living people, he still felt uneasy and didn't want to stay here for even a moment longer.
Lin Jue very enthusiastically supported him, patting him on the back to ease his tension as they walked, playing the role of a sunny younger brother perfectly.
Once they returned to the living room, Chen Fugui hugged Yao Yao, who hadn't recovered yet, and sat down on the sofa, taking a few deep breaths before slowly speaking: "At that time, Yao Yao and I were sleeping in the room."
"When I was half-asleep, I felt Yao Yao get out of bed to go to the toilet. I even asked her if she was going to the toilet."
"But after asking that question, I fell asleep again. You all know that everything that happened today made me feel nervous, and I couldn't resist the sleepiness on the comfortable bed…"
"I don't know how long I slept, but as I was sleeping, I felt the bed suddenly sink a little, as if someone had gotten into bed."
Chen Fugui's fingernails dug into his flesh, and his lips trembled unconsciously: "I didn't care and thought it was Yao Yao coming back. At that time, I even asked a question, but no one answered."
"Then I heard the sound of flushing water from the toilet."
He bit his lower lip tightly, and the experience just now made him feel cold all over. He could only suppress the fear in his heart in this way.
Until his lips were bitten and broken, and strands of blood flowed out along the gaps in his teeth.
Lin Jue thoughtfully pulled out a piece of paper and handed it over.
"Thank you."
Chen Fugui took the paper, but didn't wipe the blood on his lips. Instead, he held it tightly in his hand: "I woke up instantly when I heard the sound of flushing water."
"The one flushing the toilet was my girlfriend, so who was the one who just got into bed?"
"I didn't dare to move until Yao Yao lay down on the bed and reached out to hug me."
"Yao Yao didn't see that thing, but I knew there was a third person lying on our bed!"
After listening to Chen Fugui's account, everyone's eyes turned to Heping Ge.
This experience was very similar to the spooky story he told during the day!
No wonder Chen Fugui would say that the spooky story had become real.
"What are you looking at me for? I was downstairs at the time. Do you think I did it?"
Heping Ge snorted coldly. Although this person's attitude was bad, he was actually a very enthusiastic person.
Whether it was leading everyone to escape for their lives in the mist, or being the first to rush upstairs when he heard the screams, it was enough to prove that Heping Ge was a warm-hearted person with a cold exterior.
"Brother, we're not suspecting you, we just think it's too coincidental," Lin Jue explained.
Indeed, it was too coincidental!
He didn't believe it was such a coincidence.
That thing was simply replicating the spooky story. If they hadn't heard the story during the day, how could it have replicated so many similar details?
But Lin Jue was very sure that when they were telling the story during the day, there was nothing else hiding nearby listening.
In other words, that thing might exist among this group of people, and only those who had heard the story could recreate it.
And the thing hidden among this group of people was the liar in the script.
"I relied too much on the True Sight Eyes, thinking that the absence of black Qi meant there was no strangeness. Perhaps I can change my perspective."
He closed his eyes, then opened them again, his gaze sweeping over everyone.
Chen Fugui and Yao Yao had just experienced that incident, so they weren't very suspicious, but they couldn't be completely ruled out.
The most perfect lie is to immerse yourself in the lie, thereby eliminating your own suspicion.
If everything was directed and acted by them, then it would be very difficult for anyone to suspect them.
Just like a board game called Werewolf that Lin Jue played in his previous life, the werewolf would stab himself to improve his image as a good person.
And Jia Jia had been in a state of collapse since returning from the tunnel, but that didn't prove anything.
A qualified actor can easily act out emotions like fear. For Lin Jue himself, it was even easier. If he wanted to act out this emotion, no one would find any flaws.
As for Heping Ge, this guy was warm-hearted with a cold exterior. Lin Jue was indeed very suspicious of him at first, but he gradually dispelled his suspicion. Although Chen Fugui's experience was related to the story this guy told, Heping Ge's suspicion was still the smallest.
Even if the other party might be a mental patient who had just been discharged from the hospital.
At least Lin Jue didn't find anything suspicious about the other party. The only thing that was strange was his identity, but that was just curiosity, not suspicion.
And Qiao Kang was the most suspicious. This guy had always had ulterior motives!
"But there's still one problem: I was on night watch at the time. I can confirm that Qiao Kang, Heping Ge, and Jia Jia were all sleeping in the living room."
"If the strangeness was hidden among the three of them, how did it quietly go upstairs? And how did it return under everyone's eyes and run upstairs with us?"
"Could it be a clone? Did the possessed strangeness break away and hide in the room? Or was it some other means?"
"But we can't rule out the possibility that Chen Fugui and Yao Yao directed and acted themselves. But where is the benefit of them doing this?"
Everything was like a tangled mess. Lin Jue felt like he had forgotten a very crucial point, and that crucial point was the comb that would straighten out this mess.
"Then what? Is there anything else?"
Lin Jue moved closer and asked.
Chen Fugui shook his head: "Then I heard Yao Yao scream, and I quickly grabbed her and hid under the table. You guys ran up in less than two minutes."
"There's also…" Yao Yao, who had buried her face in his shoulder, finally spoke at this time, sobbing and saying: "When I lay back on the bed at that time, I felt a cold air blowing on my neck. That thing was behind me."
A cold air blowing on her neck?
Isn't that the black shadow in the tunnel?
Lin Jue's eyes flickered, and he didn't ask any more questions, silently returning to his seat.
