The words written on the mirror appear reversed to others, but this does not affect Yang Jian and others from reading the content of a sentence. Even if the handwriting is a bit messy, they can still understand it.

 

But the sentence written by Shangguan Yun made everyone's face change.

 

He actually heard a voice from the other side?

 

No matter what the sound was, this was a very terrifying thing.

 

Because he couldn't hear any sound from outside the mirror at all. Otherwise, there would be no need to communicate through writing.

 

Miao Xiaoshan immediately realized the horror of the situation. In her panic, she gathered her courage and quickly wrote on the mirror, "Cousin, run quickly. That's not a police officer… it's… a ghost."

 

But before she could finish writing, Yang Jian stopped her.

 

"It's useless even if you write it. He is trapped there, and his mental condition is very bad. Maybe he won't be killed by the ghost, but he will be scared to death. It's a good thing that nothing has happened to him yet. We should maintain the current situation before it worsens. Even if we know that the ghost may have found him."

 

Yang Jian calmly grabbed her wrist and said.

 

The biggest enemy for ordinary people when facing a fierce ghost is not the ghost itself, but fear.

 

Not all ghosts are unsolvable existences.

 

Even in the Huanggang Village incident, after knowing the truth, even ordinary people can survive, although it is very difficult and not completely hopeless.

 

But before that, fear and panic will only push you into the abyss of death.

 

"So, what should we do now? What should we do, Yang Jian, think of a solution quickly." Miao Xiaoshan was so anxious that she was about to cry.

 

"I'm not a savior. What can I do? You comfort your cousin first. I need to assess the situation before I can come up with some results." Yang Jian said.

 

Miao Xiaoshan nodded and quickly wrote on the mirror, "Cousin, calm down. Don't worry, nothing will happen…"

 

But before she could finish writing, her eyes suddenly widened, and she almost screamed. She quickly covered her mouth, her face filled with fear.

 

At this moment, she saw a person standing at the corner of the toilet in the mirror, not knowing when they appeared.

 

That person only showed half of their body, hiding there like playing hide-and-seek, motionless.

 

She turned her head abruptly to look.

 

She thought someone from this side's toilet had come, after all, this is a KTV and other people may need to use the toilet. It was necessary to confirm.

 

"No one…"

 

Miao Xiaoshan saw that there was no one standing at the toilet entrance on this side, and the person without a doubt was standing at the corner of the toilet in the mirror.

 

Vaguely, she could see the pale arm of that person.

 

Without any color.

 

With a corpse-like stiffness.

 

"Cousin, there's someone standing behind you." Miao Xiaoshan was so scared that she was about to cry, and she reminded him.

 

But Shangguan Yun behind the mirror didn't hear anything.

 

He couldn't hear the sound from this side, but wrote, "What is my cousin saying? I can't hear the sound here. Did someone leave again? Tell me, who can help me leave here? I don't want to be trapped here. Find someone to save me quickly."

 

Miao Xiaoshan's hand trembled. She wanted to write something, but she didn't know what to write.

 

There was no one on this side.

 

Because the person was standing at the entrance of the toilet on your side.

 

This scene was not only seen by Miao Xiaoshan, but also by others.

 

That person standing at the corner of the toilet, wanting to come in but not coming in, showing only half of their body.

 

Eerie and motionless.

 

Only existing in the mirror, not in reality.

 

"Yang Jian, is that person… a ghost?" Zhao Lei's voice was trembling.

 

This should be the second time he has seen a ghost.

 

A real ghost.

 

"The answer is already obvious."

 

Yang Jian said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, this thing has been following us all along. No wonder we couldn't see it before. It turns out that this ghost only exists in the mirror and not in reality."

 

"No, that's not right. If that's the case, the waiter wouldn't have seen the ghost before, unless… the true form of this ghost is in the mirror, and the one appearing in reality is an invisible shadow."

 

If the true form is in the mirror, then the invisible shadow is outside.

 

It's like a switch.

 

Reality is the mirror, and the world inside the mirror is the real world where the ghost exists.

 

But that ghost wants to come out of the mirror and enter the real world where people are.

 

Obviously, this ghost cannot easily accomplish this, otherwise it would have come out of the mirror long ago.

 

This requires a condition.

 

Perhaps this is the reason why Shangguan Yun was attacked.

 

Now he is in the mirror, and the ghost just appeared in front of everyone, as if they had switched places.

 

"Stay away from any mirrors, don't touch them, and don't stare at them for too long. I'm sure this ghost will not only appear in this mirror, but also in the restaurant, KTV, and even at home. It can appear in any mirror." Yang Jian said seriously, then glanced at Zhang Wei.

 

"You were the first one to encounter it."

 

Zhang Wei trembled in fear. He remembered the game of rock-paper-scissors he played in front of the mirror at home.

 

It was just a boring supernatural game, but now it has become a reality.

 

The shadow he played rock-paper-scissors with in the mirror that night was not his own shadow… but a ghost.

 

But why did the ghost stop at the entrance of the toilet?

 

Why didn't it continue to show up?

 

Didn't it show up before?"Why would the ghost appear in the mirror again if it refused to show itself after being exposed by him?"

 

Yang Jian looked at Miao Xiaoshan and continued, "Don't be afraid. If you want to save someone, keep writing on the mirror to communicate with your cousin. Try to lure the ghost out and find a breakthrough from it. Maybe there's a slight chance."

 

"But I can't guarantee success. The odds of failure are high. After all, your cousin has been attacked by a fierce ghost, and his current condition is hard to predict."

 

"As for you guys…"

 

Yang Jian turned to Wang Shanshan, Zhang Wei, and Zhao Lei, "If you don't want to stay here, leave now while the ghost is still in my sight. If it disappears again, I can't guarantee who it will latch onto next. And you ordinary people can't help. Leaving here is the best choice."

 

"Yang Jian, you're right. I'll only cause trouble here. I'll leave now. Miao Xiaoshan, be careful. I can't help much. Let's keep in touch by phone if nothing happens."

 

Zhao Lei apologized and left immediately.

 

"Damn, what a disloyal guy. Can't rely on him at all. Yang Jian, don't worry, I won't leave. I'll stay here with you for moral support. I won't let Zhao Lei off easily. I'll chase him down and make him apologize to you. If I can't catch him, I won't have the face to see you again."

 

Enraged, Zhang Wei rushed out, "Zhao Lei, don't run. Wait for me."

 

"…"

 

Yang Jian then looked at Wang Shanshan.

 

"Leave here. Call your dad to pick you up when you're outside."

 

"Okay."

 

Wang Shanshan nodded and calmly left.

 

Perhaps her fear had already numbed her.

 

Seeing everyone else had left, Yang Jian said to Miao Xiaoshan, "Although I don't want to get involved in this, it's hard to ignore since the reunion was disrupted by this ghost. Since we've gathered, we should part on good terms. I'll do my best to help you one last time, but if it's beyond my abilities…"

 

"I can only apologize."

 

"Th-thank you." Miao Xiaoshan expressed her gratitude.

 

Yang Jian replied, "Don't thank me. I wouldn't do this for any other classmate. If you want to thank someone, thank our six years of friendship. The path I'll take in the future will be different from yours, and we probably won't meet again. So consider this my personal farewell."

 

"Maybe later you'll receive news of you and your cousin being safe, but it could also be fear and corpses. Everything… depends on fate."

 

Miao Xiaoshan bit her lip and nodded.

 

"So, continue communicating with your cousin through the mirror. This method should be able to lure the ghost out." Yang Jian said.

 

Miao Xiaoshan did as instructed, writing, "Cousin, Yang Jian has thought of a way to save you. Don't be afraid and don't act rashly, or it'll be disastrous."

 

"Why did the others run away? Did they notice something wrong? Tell me, tell me." Shangguan Yun wrote in panic, his face showing increasing signs of breakdown.

 

"It's okay, everything will be fine."

 

As they continued to communicate, Yang Jian's eyes narrowed.

 

His guess was correct.

 

Their communication indeed lured the ghost out.

 

The ghost standing at the bathroom door suddenly moved.

 

It walked out.

 

And this person was indeed a man, just like the waiter had said. And his face was… Zhang Wei.

 

No, not exactly like Zhang Wei, but very similar, about seventy to eighty percent. His clothes were different too, he was wearing a work uniform.
