Chapter 16: left or right
Back in the bedroom, Ye Keke put down his ponytail. She turned to look at Ni Xiao, who was still packing her things: "Do you take a bath first or should I take a bath first?"
"You go first." Ni Xiao said.
"Yeah." Ye Keke didn't think more, and went into the bathroom alone.
The red high-heeled shoes that came out of the lucky bag were thrown to the door by Ye Keke at will. Ni Xiao only glanced at the pair of high-heeled shoes, and then he didn't care anymore, he took out the mirror and put it on the dresser.
When she took the mirror out of the bag, she also got its information the moment she touched it with her fingertips. The introduction text of the mirror is very ordinary, it is not a prop with special abilities, and it is impossible to see what kind of incarnation of ghosts.
Ni Xiao's own face was reflected in the mirror, pale and with a sharp chin, no different from herself. Huang Lu had moved to Zhang Lu's room to take care of people since the day Feng Yao died. Ni Xiao couldn't find anyone to talk to, so he sat beside the bed and played with his mobile phone with his head down.
While the webpage was still loading, Ni Xiao raised his head inadvertently, but saw Ye Keke standing behind him in the mirror. She was wearing a white nightgown, standing silently, staring at her with a pale face.
She was startled and turned around, only to see Ye Keke wrapped in a white bath towel, her hair was wet, and her cheeks were still ruddy from hot water. Ye Keke looked at her like this, but she was stunned for a moment: "What's wrong with you?"
Ni Xiao didn't reply to her, but turned around quickly to confirm Ye Keke in the mirror. I saw Ye Keke in the mirror was indeed wrapped in a white bath towel, and her pink face was inexplicable.
...Perhaps the stress was too great, so the bath towel was regarded as a nightdress. Ni Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but remained vigilant in his heart. She asked Ye Keke, "Have you finished washing?"
"Um. Aren't you going to wash?"
"Okay, I'll go now." Ni Xiao squatted down to pack his things and asked with his back to Ye Keke, "Coco, where did you put my lotion?"
"Moisturizer?"
"Did you just use the pink bottle and put it in the bathroom?"
"Oh, oh." Ye Keke then reacted, "Yes, I put it in the bathroom."
Ni Xiao then stood up and passed Ye Keke with his clothes in his arms. She had her back straight, trying to look like nothing happened.
But at the moment of passing by, I heard Ye Keke's gloomy voice.
"The bathroom is on the right, what are you going to the left?"
The cold hairs all over his body exploded at this moment, and Ni Xiao froze in place, reluctantly showing a smile: "Ah... I was thinking about other things, I went wrong."
Saying that, she turned and walked towards the bathroom, and unscrewed the door handle of the bathroom clockwise. The moment she turned around and closed the bathroom door, she saw Ye Keke standing on the only road leading to the door of the room, looking at her with a grim expression.
The moment he closed the door, Ni Xiao released his hands, and his clothes fell on the slippery ground. She covered her throat to keep herself from screaming.
She has no body wash at all!
She shook her hands, opened the shower head, and took out the phone hidden inside from her close-fitting clothes. Switching WeChat to Huang Lu's column, she typed a line: "Save me!"
"I'm in the toilet, and the leaves outside are fake!"
The message sinks like a rock, and there is no response. The water mist gradually spread, and the translucent door glass was also obscured by the mist. Ni Xiao bit his fingers nervously, sending messages over and over again waiting for Huang Lu's response.
'hurry up! ’
'hurry up! ’
For half an hour, no response. But Ye Keke's voice came from outside the door: "Ni Xiao, haven't you finished washing yet?"
Ni Xiao covered his mouth and did not speak. Five minutes later, "Ye Keke" made a second voice: "Ni Xiao, haven't you finished washing yet?"
"Ni Xiao, haven't you finished washing yet?"
"Ni Xiao, haven't you finished washing yet?"
"Ni Xiao, haven't you finished washing yet?"
Every time the urging voice came closer and closer than the last time, but the voice of "Ye Keke" was as calm and unwavering as before. Ni Xiao clenched his fingers, sweating profusely. Just when the next sentence "Ni Xiao" sounded, there was finally the expected knock on the door.
"Coco, I'll come back to get something, you open the door."
The sound of the call stopped for a long time, as if the caller himself was thinking, whether to continue guarding the prey with nowhere to escape, or to perform a new round of acting according to the character.
Soon, it made a decision.
The footsteps of "Ye Keke" gradually drifted away. Ni Xiao leaned against the bathroom door, holding the doorknob in his hand, listening to the movement outside.
"There...what...thing..."
The voice of "Ye Keke" sounded at the entrance, and Huang Lu said, "Nothing...just..."
The next moment, there was a scream from the room, and the sound of metal hitting bones. In the chaotic fight, Huang Lu screamed: "Ni Xiao!"
Ni Xiao understood and turned the bathroom door lock clockwise. She stumbled and ran out the door. In the bedroom, Chu Tianzheng and "Ye Keke" were fighting together.
As soon as she arrived at the door, her legs were almost too weak to stand. Huang Lu stretched out her left hand to hold her, she grabbed Huang Lu's hand tightly, and ran with her.
Huang Lu's hands were a little cold, but Ni Xiao, who had been running in the hot water for more than half an hour, didn't notice this.
She took Ni Xiao and ran to the right. Running past the room of Lin Huai and others is the familiar staircase. Arriving here, Ni Xiao's sweaty head cooled down as if being drenched in ice water.
A drop of sweat slid across her forehead, and her feet froze in place. Huang Lu turned around and looked at her in confusion.
"What's wrong?" Huang Lu asked calmly.
"No...not in this direction!" Ni Xiao screamed, "The stairs...the stairs should be on the left!"
Yes, she had lived in this villa for four full days, and it was impossible for her to misremember the direction of the stairs.
Huang Lu's hand became colder as she held her. Ni Xiao desperately pulled his hand out of the shackles of lack of warmth, "Huang Lu" stared at her, and the corners of her mouth rose with a smile.
"No, the direction is right here."
Saying that, she pointed to the right. Ni Xiao shouted and finally succeeded, but crashed into the door of Lin Huai's room because of recoil.
She was about to say something, but the door creaked open.
The one who came out of the room was Ye Xian in a white robe. His face was pale and his smile was cold, exactly the same as the "Ye Keke" she saw in the mirror.
He clapped his palms and gestured like he was singing, but his voice was Gujing Wubo: "No, the direction is this way."
The doors belonging to the second floor opened one by one. From the next room, "Chu Tian" in a white robe and Ye Keke in a white "nightdress" came out.
They also clapped their hands, their voices dry: "No, the direction is this way."
The residents on the third floor walked down the stairs wearing white clothes. Still with that empty and boring expression, and still the same unwavering voice, they lined up in a row and clapped around Ni Xiao.
"No, the direction is right here."
"No, the direction is right here."
The blue and white encirclement gradually tightened. Ni Xiao, who was sitting on the ground, shouted, pushed "Chu Tian" and "Ye Keke" away, and ran towards the third room at the end of the corridor.
The road to life is the road to death, and the road to death is the road to life... Since the stairs are the road to death, then the room on the other side must be the road to life!
She didn't have time to turn around, she rushed all the way into the last room, and slammed on the door before the blue-white ghost rushed over. After locking the door hard, she leaned back against the door of the room and breathed a sigh of relief.
Are you safe?
The next moment, the lights in the room were turned on!
On the dresser facing the room, there is the mirror.
In the mirror, beside Ni Xiao, who had collapsed on the ground, stood nine tall white shadows. They tilted their heads and stared at the girl sitting on the ground.
"what-!"
At the end of his confusion, all Ni Xiao saw out of the corner of his eye was a red dress.
She had never seen such a full red, it was said to be red, or even closer to black, and the dark red blood droplets seemed to be so many that they would slip from the cuffs.
The man had long black hair, loosely tied into a long ponytail at the back of his head, and his eyes were as black as abyss. Dark red patterns grow and spread recklessly on the pale skin, like strange thorns full of life.
Extremely demonic to evil, terrifying and...beautiful.
That was the face he saw for the first time when he woke up in the blood-red Wenxian as a Specter.
"In the mirror... Will it reveal the body? It doesn't matter." The man chuckled lightly.
After he finished speaking, bright red bloodshots emerged from his palms and attacked the white ghosts overwhelmingly!
