Chapter 31

~8 min read 1,418 words

The sound from the phone stopped abruptly.

Whether Old Wang became a background character in an urban legend, they don't know.

But right now, a gray-white seagull is standing on the back seat of the taxi, tilting its head as if sniffing something.

Then it suddenly merged into the ground, spread its wings, and actually flew within the shadows, quickly entering the hospital.

It headed straight for a certain room on the third floor.

This room is exactly where Xiao Wan and the others were treated today.

The Painting Ghost stood on the table, its form constantly changing, like a blob of slime with signs of life.

Its dark flesh was writhing and struggling, and from time to time, something seemed to want to burst out from the black flesh.

Subsequently, it locked its gaze on a position and escaped into the wall.

"Why did you go to the police station today?" Tang Meili and the others had just come out of the mall. Upon learning that Xu Jiajia had been to the police station, she asked curiously, "Is it about Lin Qing?"

While speaking, she also carefully glanced at Xiao Wan, afraid she would hear.

Xu Jiajia shook her head: "No, it's other things. Anyway, I've been very annoyed these past two days."

Thinking of Huang Lei's threats when she left, and Officer Li's warnings, she is still a bit scared now.

No way, this person shouldn't be that bold. Besides, I'm not going back, he definitely won't be able to find me.

Tang Meili sighed: "Xiao Wan's situation has been hard on you. When I have time off in a while, I'll help you take care of her. After all, Lin Qing was my friend, and Xiao Wan is so cute, I can't bear it."

Xu Jiajia nodded: "She has to go to school. When school starts next month, I'll send her back. We'll see then."

On the way back, the three of them sat together in a taxi.

They heard the driver muttering to his phone.

"Old Wang wouldn't have really become an urban legend, would he? Who among you is going to check?"

"Don't worry, I've already called the police. Whether we taxi drivers can get famous depends on Old Wang."

Seeing Xu Jiajia and the others get in, the driver in the front row asked, "Beautiful ladies, where to?"

Tang Meili said: "Yujia Road, XXX Tianhui."

"Alright, sit tight." The driver stepped on the gas and sped off. The phone in the car kept playing the voices of other drivers from time to time.

For this kind of chatting and driving among taxi drivers, the whole city is used to it.

"Beautiful ladies, have you heard any urban legends these past two days?" the driver asked.

Xu Jiajia rested her chin on one hand, staring out the window in a daze.

Tang Meili asked: "What urban legend?"

The driver said mysteriously: "A ghost that likes to dig out eyes! I heard it has already dug out many people's eyes."

Tang Meili raised her pretty face slightly and smiled: "Digging out eyes? Do ghosts nowadays have these hobbies?"

"You don't believe it, beautiful?"

Tang Meili shook her head: "I don't believe in these things."

If I were to believe it, the two sitting next to me could scare you to death just by speaking up.

The driver smiled: "Don't be so sure. When you just got in the car, didn't you hear? A friend of ours who is also a taxi driver ran into that thing today. I heard it was a bear covered in eyes, and a woman who looked like a grid."

"I don't know what the situation is now, but when he went to get his brain checked, he suddenly said 'seagull' and then he was gone. Based on my years of reading novels, this kid is nine times out of ten a background character in an urban legend, just cannon fodder!"

Seeing the driver's confident look and how he was joking about his friend, Tang Meili believed it even less.

She smiled and said nothing.

The little bear had a smile on its face, staring at the driver without saying a word.

It seems the urban legend story has already spread. Next, I just need to make a big scene and then enjoy the Fear Value.

Zhang Yi is now a ghost, and he has discovered that his humanity is slowly fading away. The things he cares about have become only himself, Xiao Wan, and at most, Xu Jiajia.

In this world, only by becoming a hunter can one avoid being hunted.

And Zhang Yi wants to be the strongest hunter of them all.

【Ding, mission activated.】

【Primary Judgment Officer mission triggered.】

【Mission terms: Fire from hell, crying sounds boiling in the abyss, does the night owl accompany you? The crow will become your star, and the hunter will eventually become fish in the slaughterhouse.】

【Mission issued: Judgment! Quantity: 0-5】

【When night falls, the arsonist bear and the girl will eventually encounter the whispers from the abyss.】

A glimmer of light suddenly flashed in Zhang Yi's hollow gaze.

The mission has finally arrived!

This mission is actually a Primary Judgment Officer mission, different from ordinary missions.

Could it be related to the title?

The system said such a huge pile, I don't even know what to do yet. This judgment quantity, could it be asking me to kill people? As for the "when night falls" below, it should be the time.

After the time arrives, go kill five people? Killing five people is simple for him, but it feels like the mission is more than just that.

I've collected a huge wave of Fear Value these past two days. After this mission ends, there should be a chance to break through to Level 5.

However, he temporarily needs to use the Fear Value to upgrade the Demon Bear Bloodline.

The system prompts that when the Demon Bear Bloodline reaches the peak of the third stage, it will change. He is very much looking forward to it.

In the car, Xiao Wan was happily humming a song. The two women were sitting on either side, and neither of them was driving.

The driver kept yapping on the road. Xu Jiajia rested her chin on her hand, looking out the window without saying a word. Tang Meili was even getting a bit annoyed.

These drivers love to gossip all day and talk way too much.

Finally, they reached their destination, and they quickly got out of the car and left.

"Beautiful ladies, you haven't paid yet!" The driver suddenly stuck his head out and smiled awkwardly.

Tang Meili walked back, took out her phone to scan the code, and said at the same time: "Driver, be careful on the road. Urban legends usually like to target those who talk too much."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Looking at her curvaceous figure and the mole under her eye, the driver couldn't help but lick his lips.

"This woman is great in every way, except she talks too little. But that's just perfect to complement me. I should have added her on WeChat! What a pity!"

Shaking his head, he regretfully drove his yellow Porsche away.

After getting out of the car, Xu Jiajia started her livestream. She hadn't really livestreamed all day today, and she hadn't even finished her tasks.

Opened the livestream.

The screen was flooded with comments.

: "Holy crap, the streamer is still alive?"

: "Damn, the toughest streamer in history, commonly known as the cockroach."

: "The moderator just said you died in the toilet, how did you suddenly come back to life?"

: "As expected of Xu Jiajia, someone who can sleep with ghosts. A mere toilet ghost, she'd just drag it to death!"

: "By the way, the moderator said you died in the toilet, how did you survive?"

Looking at the comments on the screen, Xu Jiajia almost rolled her eyes to the sky.

"Don't talk nonsense, I just went to the bathroom. It's impossible for there to be ghosts in this world. I've already checked."

"Yes, I can testify." Tang Meili appeared in the frame with a smile: "I'd rather believe that Jiajia's brain has a problem than believe there are ghosts in this world!"

Extra update in progress, don't rush me. The author is trying this genre for the first time and is struggling to control it. Keep going! (End of chapter)
