In the white night, ghosts cannot kill people at will, and must abide by certain rules.

The pen fairy couldn't answer the question for a long time, which led to the failure of the ghost invitation ceremony, and was soon backlashed by the rules, and was forced to leave.

But it didn't care about it, and even showed a bit of joy——

After all, studying math problems requires a quiet and leisurely environment.

Neutral fell straight down, and 056 fell into a semi-autistic state.

Wen Chuchu was still immersed in the shock just now: "We... have finished the first trial?"

"To be precise," Xu Qingchuan said with a complicated expression, "I finished "When Math Knocks on the Door."

"When Math Comes Knocking."

Wen Chuchu laughed out loud: "The painting style of this title is not right?"

As she spoke, she looked at Bai Shuangxing, her cheeks blushed slightly, and she was a little embarrassed: "When the pen fairy shows up, thank you."

At that time, she was almost swallowed by terror, her mind went blank, and she almost cried.

If Bai Shuangxing hadn't noticed her frightened expression and held her hand without hesitation, Wen Chuchu thought, she would have collapsed a long time ago.

Xu Qingchuan experienced the rest of his life after a catastrophe, and at the moment he was both apprehensive and grateful, and immediately answered after hearing the words: "It's so dangerous, thanks to you this time—this trial is too tricky!"

Bai Shuangxing shook his head: "I'm very interested in the legends of supernatural beings, and I usually do some research by myself. This time it's just a coincidence, so you don't have to pay too much attention to it."

Wen Chuchu patted her heart, and couldn't help but look at her again.

With a beautiful appearance and a quiet temperament, her slender back is always as straight as a bamboo. Because of her fair skin, it is easy to remind people of an elegant swan.

No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with the matter of gods, gods and ghosts.

Maybe this is called one can't judge a person by their appearance?

"You all saw the system prompt just now."

Bai Shuangxing took a sip of water: "It said that we have completed a quarter of the main task."

Xu Qingchuan also reacted: "But Master Baili only gave us three trials."

Think about it this way, what would the extra task be?

"I thought of a possibility."

Wen Chuchu said: "Have you all seen a unit movie composed of several short stories? At the end of the movie, the small stories often overlap and form a general thread."

"Ok."

Bai Shuangxing pondered: "Master Baili, as the publisher of the trial, is very strange in itself. She hides in the room and sees no one, and her voice is like a young girl... There should be a story about her."

The opponent's friend and foe are unknown, and they must be prepared.

It's late now, and the group of people were so tormented by the pen fairy, after discussing for a while, they went back to the guest room to rest.

Before they entered the White Night, these three characters were selected by Master Baili and received an invitation to go to No. 444 Baijia Street.

The three young people came from different cities and it was inconvenient to carry too much luggage. In order to ensure quick and easy, they specially sent their household items from their hometown.

After the landlord divides the rooms, he puts each person's luggage at their door.When Bai Shuang walked back to his room, he happened to see a dark black suitcase.

The guest room is not big, with one bedroom and one living room. As soon as you enter the door, you are greeted by a damp and cold wind.

There are clean tables, chairs and sofas in the living room, the bedroom is clean and quiet, the temperature is very low, and there is a huge full-length mirror hanging on the wall.

In terms of progress, the film is only a quarter completed, not only the plot has not yet unfolded, but the characters of the protagonists are also vague.

The suitcase is a personal item, and may contain things related to the plot.Bai Shuangxing was also idle. After wandering around the room, he squatted down and opened the suitcase.

The character she was assigned seemed to like reading books very much. Seven or eight books were neatly placed in the suitcase, and the rest were clothes and sundries.

Bai Shuangxing didn't relax his vigilance and looked at the titles one by one.

"Far in a Foreign Land", "My Utopia", "The World Falls Asleep", "To You Lonely", "Take You to See the Universe".

There are also "A Brief History of World Psychics" and "Book of Changes".

Most of them were niche and romantic literary works. She didn't find anything special, and looked down.

At the bottom of the book, there is a brightly colored red envelope.

The red envelope is a common style, with a red background and gold patterns, exquisite workmanship, and don't know what it contains, it is bulging.

She took it apart smoothly, and couldn't help raising her eyebrows——

There is indeed money inside, but unfortunately it feels very bad to the touch, and it is obviously counterfeit.

This kind of thing has nothing to do with the plot, Bai Shuangxing is not interested, so he put down the red envelope and moved his eyes lightly.

Simple cotton and linen clothes, a pure white ceramic water cup, and——

Her eyes fixed on a certain corner, and she stopped.

In the upper right corner of the suitcase, next to the neatly folded jacket, lay a notebook quietly.

The room seemed to be getting colder, she reached out and picked up the dark book.

Very thick, clean and no dust.

Bai Shuangxing lowered his head and turned to the first page. The rustling sound was clearly discernible in the dead house.

"September 15th"

"Today is the 30th anniversary of living together with my girlfriend.

She is beautiful, gentle, and assertive, and every time I think about her, I feel like the luckiest man in the world.

Every day with her is very happy. To commemorate this time, will do a daily summary when have time."

Obviously, this is a man's diary.

Bai Shuangxing stared at the handwriting on the white paper, frowning slightly.

Is the "girlfriend" in the diary the role she played?What about the diary owner?After the "girlfriend" moved to this strange city, where did he go?

The diary appeared weird and abrupt, she tapped the paper lightly, and turned to the next page.

"September 16"

"So happy!

Today she is making fish-flavored shredded pork and braised pork in the kitchen. Even if I just smell it from a distance, I can't wait to eat it.

Her parents are coming tomorrow, it's the first time I see them, I'm so nervous."

"September 17th"

[Her parents are very kind, they don't chatter about this and that, talking about "name", "job" and "age".

Huh, what a relief.To let them know I'm not working yet... well, don't want that.

She is too tired today, so I will do the dishes.

Be sure to behave well in front of your uncles and aunts!"

"September 18"

"It's terrible, one of her colleagues got into a car accident and I heard that she died on the spot.

That colleague pursued her for a long time and never gave up. I heard her complain to her friends in the company several times, complaining about how the other party pestered her.

... Alas, the mood is complicated, hope the deceased rests in peace."

"September 20"

"I don't think she's right.

Since the day before yesterday, she always felt that someone was following her, but I didn't find anything unusual.

She became hysterical, didn't go to work, rummaged through boxes and cabinets at home, and said strange words, such as "don't pester me" and "where are you hiding".

But... besides me and her, how can there be anyone else at home?"

"September 23rd"

"She broke things again, did some wacky exorcisms at home and then ran into her room crying.

I really have no choice but to clean up the broken porcelain bowls.

Thinking about the time when her colleague passed away, and her behavior in the past few days, I couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat even though it was daytime.

stop.

stop stop stop!Stop scaring yourself!She was just thinking wildly!"

"September 24th"

"She insisted that the house was haunted and invited a few Taoist priests to exorcise it.

To be honest, I still can't detect the slightest thing wrong. What she said, "the furniture moved inexplicably", "heard footsteps in the middle of the night", "felt prying eyes", and so on, I couldn't find it at all.

But seeing her getting worse and worse, I feel more and more uncomfortable.

If there is a ghost, come to me.

I want to protect her."

"October 1st"

"She received an invitation letter and plans to apply for a closed disciple of a certain celestial master.

God, she is really crazy, what kind of "celestial master", charlatan is almost the same, what is it worth for her to quit her job and move to another city?

I think she should be taken to see a psychiatrist.

If she insists on going her own way...

Forget it, who asked me to be her boyfriend, then move with her."

"October 2nd"

"She was crying again in her dream.

I hugged her gently and told her in a low voice not to be afraid, I will always be with her.

I will definitely be with her."

The diary ends here.

At first glance, the diary is full of a man's concern and worries for his girlfriend, and there is nothing wrong with it.

But for some reason, Bai Shuangxing always felt something was wrong.

...Is it because of the colleague who died in a car accident?

After he passed away, the girl always felt that someone was following her.

Judging from the descriptions in the diary, the movement of furniture, the sound of footsteps in the middle of the night, and the feeling of being watched are indeed symptoms of being haunted by evil spirits.

but

Bai Shuangxing frowned secretly, and read the diary again from the beginning.

When met daughter's boyfriend for the first time, even if the woman's parents didn't ask about the job, how could it be possible that they didn't even care about the name?

Continue to read, the man who wrote the diary claimed that he had no job, why... he appeared in the girl's company several times and heard the conversation between her and her colleagues?

There is another big doubt.

The couple seemed to have a good relationship. Since the man was determined to stay with his girlfriend, why did he disappear as if the girl came to this city?

wait.

... have a good relationship?

A thought suddenly popped up in his mind, giving birth to a chill that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

Bai Shuangxing faintly understood.

No wonder she always felt an indescribable strangeness when reading the diary. Thinking about it now, the reason is very simple.

The person who wrote the diary...had never had any substantial positive contact with the "girlfriend" he called.

When his girlfriend was cooking, he "smelled it from a distance" and imagined the delicious food.

When the girlfriend's parents came to visit, he did not communicate with them, not even mentioning their names.

Even the only time he spoke was after his girlfriend fell asleep.

It's like girls don't know his existence.

From the beginning to the end, the so-called "boyfriend and girlfriend" did not communicate at all. Is it because the diary omitted the communication, or...

It is impossible for them to communicate at all?

According to the calculations in the diary, the girl felt that someone was following her, and it was September 18th.

That day was not only the day when her colleague had an accident, but also the day after the owner of the diary washed the dishes.

Imagine that you are living alone at home, and when you wake up one day, you suddenly find that the dirty dishes have been cleaned by someone.

That's why she was so determined and eager to escape, because there was never any "boyfriend", and there was no one in the house except her.

That's why the owner of the diary feels that everything is normal and nothing unusual, because he is the culprit who has been hiding in the corner and peeping silently.

So... Although he doesn't have a job, he can always be by the girl's side and go to her company.

Because no one can see him.

And the sentence he wrote, "I will always be with her"——

There was a buzzing in his ears, Bai Shuangxing quickly lowered his head, and looked at the few books he had seen before.

"My Utopia", "Far in a Foreign Land", "Take You to See the Universe", "The World Falls Asleep", "To the Lonely You".

Coldness climbed up the spine, the light bulb flickered silently, and the sudden darkness merged with the heartbeat.

In the palpitating silence, she saw the writing on the book clearly, and her thoughts exploded.

The first word in the first book, the second word in the second book, and so on, that is——

"I'm watching you".

In the unknown shadow, he followed her from beginning to end, looking at her quietly and greedily.

right here in this room.

The air was so oppressive that it was suffocating, Bai Shuangxing gritted his teeth and lowered his eyes, all he could see was the red envelope in the pile of clothes.

Her heartbeat became faster and faster, and she felt chills all over when she thought of the folklore literature she had read.

The red envelopes of the living symbolize celebration and blessing, while the red envelopes sent by the dead, once received, will be tightly entangled and difficult to break free.

When she picked up the red envelope, she was infected with the curse that follows her everywhere.

The night was gloomy, and unexpectedly, there was a soft sound from the system.

It made no secret of the malice in its tone, and the ending sound rose happily.

"Ding dong!"

"Congratulations to the challenger for triggering the main task 2: The Untouchable Lover"

"Life and death have fate, and Yin and Yang are separated. According to the rules of the dead, accepting a red envelope means agreeing to a yin marriage, and they will never be separated from life to life."

"How can the living and the dead be together?"

"Hush."

"Now...he's here."
