Chapter 40

Foolish World Chapter 40 Incarnation

It looked like Song Liang simply couldn't get out.

After a couple of subtle attempts later, Huaiyou also confirmed this idea.

As soon as Song Liang's foot stepped out of this door, he would instantly feel an extremely terrifying pain coming from his mind.

Following that was damage to his body.

And this damage was directly proportional to the distance from the door; the further the distance, the greater the harm, and the greater the pain.

It was like a rope tied around his neck; the moment he stepped out the door, the rope would tighten until it strangled him to death.

He was like someone imprisoned here.

Not to mention the bruised wounds that appeared on his back; Song Liang himself didn't even know when these marks had been left.

When Huaiyou explained his back condition to him, he was also full of surprise and fear, completely unaware of what was going on.

And just when the two of them didn't know what to do.

The black mist in the small restaurant's lobby, which had disappeared for a while, suddenly and inexplicably began to slowly appear again at this moment.

Following it was a human figure that suddenly appeared within it.

It looked like an old grandmother, constantly moving through the black mist.

Currently, it wasn't very clear, but it was real; this thing was spreading and was gradually moving over from the doorway.

He believed that it wouldn't be long before it filled the entire small restaurant.

"W-what do we do now... I don't want to stay here..." Song Liang looked tremblingly at the black mist gradually spreading and surging over from behind.

He stood at the door, hesitant.

In fact, he now understood that as soon as he stepped one foot out, the pain in his body would be almost enough to kill him.

But the hope of living told him that he still needed to run.

Huaiyou thought for a moment and said: "I can only ask those people... I don't want to stay here either, I just got back too... First, try to retreat as much as possible to buy some time; as of now, it's probably aimed at you..."

At least for now, Huaiyou could leave if he wanted to.

Of course, he didn't know what the situation was outside? Did leaving here mean only leaving this small restaurant, or could one also leave the outside?

Huaiyou couldn't be sure about these things.

But for now, he would not abandon his friend Song Liang.

The situation here was completely different from what he had encountered before; there was no path to take, so if he wanted to solve it, he probably couldn't do it alone.

He immediately picked up his phone and dialed a number.

To be precise, this didn't look like a normal phone number format at all.

Because this string of numbers was a strange combination full of various digits and symbols.

Although it was only 15 digits long, it was still a few digits more than a normal number.

And the moment Huaiyou pressed the call button, the entire phone screen instantly flipped and was covered by a thick, pitch-black color.

Only two seconds passed.

The other side connected.

"Huaiyou?"

A mechanical voice came from the other end of the phone, seemingly devoid of any emotion.

Huaiyou nodded, "It's me."

The next second, this mechanical voice quickly switched to another person along with a slight crackle of electricity.

"What is it."

Zou Zhihua's deep voice slowly appeared on the phone at this moment.

Huaiyou was a bit surprised that it was actually Zou Zhihua who answered the phone.

Although this contact method was given to him by Zou Zhihua before he left.

But even if he didn't want to think about it, he could understand the weight of this captain; at the time, the gazes of the people he encountered showed that they were actually full of respect and awe for Zou Zhihua.

Logically speaking, a captain with such a high status.

When he made this call, it shouldn't have been answered by him personally, right?

And Huaiyou's purpose for making this call was also very obvious.

This kind of ghostly matter must be under their supervision, so no matter what, calling them for help was definitely the right thing to do.

What's more, he had their contact information, so why not use it?

"Special times, you are the person I am assigned to, so I usually answer; it just so happens I'm relatively free recently, just say what happened, don't waste time."

Zou Zhihua seemed to have guessed what Huaiyou was thinking just now and said it like that quickly.

At this moment, Huaiyou composed himself, looked at the things gradually shrouding over from behind, and said: "I've encountered those things again; the current situation is a bit special, my friend is here too, see what I should do, I feel his situation is a bit off."

And soon, Huaiyou had clearly explained the general sequence of events and the things he was facing.

Listening to Huaiyou's description.

Zou Zhihua furrowed his brows, revealing a very grave expression.

"You mean, you just got back and received a message that was absolutely not sent by your friend himself, then you went to find him, and when you wanted to take him away, you discovered that your friend seemed completely unable to leave this small restaurant, and those things are gradually approaching you?"

"Yes, that's the general situation; my friend has dense palm prints left on his back, there are bite marks, it feels... like it's because of the existence of these things... that he can't leave here, is there any way to break it?" Huaiyou said.

"Or even a temporary departure would work, the mist is about to come over completely..."

"There have indeed been similar situations in the files I've come into contact with before, but looking at it this way, your luck is really not just ordinarily bad, to be able to encounter these things just after returning."

"And, it looks like there is already another answer to the question I asked you before; you have indeed encountered ghosts, or those ghost things, and these ghost things are still circling around you."

"Forget it, back to the point, tell me the time there now?"

"Time? It's almost 4 o'clock now, to be precise, it's 3:58."

"3:58?" Zou Zhihua seemed to be thinking and pondering on the other side.

But he quickly gave a corresponding response.

"At 4 o'clock, you try to take your friend out, walk out the door just like before; logically speaking, it should succeed, but if it fails... things will become interesting."

Hearing this, Huaiyou's mouth twitched, "Why does the way you talk sound so unserious, unreliable."

"You'll know once you try; you'd better pray that you can successfully take him out at that time, otherwise, you won't be able to accept the other outcome," Zou Zhihua said.

But on this side of the phone, Huaiyou could hear the gravity in the other person's words.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Don't worry about it for now, I'll explain it to you when I have the chance; remember every word I say next: if the first situation occurs, where you can successfully take him out, then things are looking up, but it can't be considered very good."

"If it's the first situation, tell me immediately, and have your friend wait outside, try to stay as far away from the incident site as possible, and our relevant personnel will rush over."

"If it's the second situation, meaning he still can't get out, you try to leave there yourself first, and we will also rush over as soon as possible."

Try to leave himself.

Huaiyou frowned and said: "What does the second situation mean?"

Zou Zhihua was silent for a moment: "That means he can never escape; just as you guessed, those marks are actually a curse, and your friend will be subjected to endless pursuit; it's impossible for a normal person to accept even one round of pursuit."

"To put it clearly, that is to say, if the second situation appears, your friend will definitely die."

"Alright, stop talking nonsense, it's almost 4 o'clock, try to take him out, and keep in touch with me as much as possible."

And it was at the same time he was saying this.

The time had already jumped to 4 o'clock.

"It's now!"

Huaiyou gritted his teeth, instantly pulled Song Liang, and then left the door.

This moment was very urgent; the other party had already said it was at this time, so to be precise, there definitely couldn't be the slightest delay.

When Huaiyou was pulling Song Liang out the door, he was also constantly observing which situation would appear.

Song Liang seemed to realize what Huaiyou wanted to do, so he didn't have too much resistance at first, and had even prepared himself to endure the pain.

Fortunately.

The first step, the second step, the third step, all were successfully crossed, and the two of them gradually left the small restaurant just like that.

Huaiyou turned his head to look at Song Liang and found that he didn't seem to have anything wrong; on the surface, he looked very normal, and apart from being terrified, there didn't seem to be any other changes.

Huaiyou couldn't help but smile at this moment: "Success."

Then he took out his phone, "It's a success, it's the first situation, I successfully brought him out, he didn't experience any brain pain or eye bleeding, and his whole spirit seems to be gradually recovering..."

But on the other side, after Huaiyou finished saying these words, he found that the other side was silent.

But immediately following, the next second, a strange scene appeared.

Song Liang, who had looked as good as could be, suddenly rolled his eyes at this moment, and his whole body fell straight forward, completely unconscious.

Huaiyou subconsciously took a step forward.

And caught the other person.

And after discovering this situation, Huaiyou also subconsciously said to the phone: "Why did he suddenly faint?"

At the same time, in the distance, one after another tall people wearing protective suits were rapidly approaching.

But before they could reach them.

The open door of the small restaurant behind them erupted with thick black mist, instantly shrouding Huaiyou completely.

The people wearing protective suits also instantly approached Huaiyou at this moment, but their speed was clearly a bit slow.

They only managed to pull Song Liang out.

But Huaiyou was instantly pulled into the darkness by a pale, withered hand that grew out of the black mist.

The phone dropped to the ground.

The people wearing protective suits watched the darkness shrink backward and rapidly surge into the small restaurant.

At this moment, they also retreated rapidly, but they took out their walkie-talkies and said.

"Rescue confirmed, one person successfully rescued, the other person has been confirmed to have been pulled into it."

"The rescued person is preliminarily determined to be an 'Incarnation', meets the 'Incarnation' judgment criteria, now requesting withdrawal."
