In the phone camera, Du Sixian was sleeping soundly, her oval face carrying a hint of baby fat, and the few light freckles on the tip of her nose did not detract from her beauty; instead, they added a touch of vitality and playfulness.
A Miss like this, with a little tidying up and dressing, would easily attract the attention of passersby on the street.
But...
Lu Yibei was completely unable to focus on her appearance; the mark on her forehead was too conspicuous, as if it contained a strange magic power, its light flowing and silently attracting attention.
She expressionlessly held her forehead.
When Du Sixian wakes up, how should she explain this situation to her?
I accidentally enlightened you; am I your damn Master?
And then she says, "Since You have become your shape, I will definitely be loyal to You from now on!"?
How is that possible!
It's not some vulgar harem novel plot; a normal person encountering such perverted behavior would definitely call the police, right?
At that time, the Night Watch would receive the transferred information, trace the clues, and wouldn't everything be over?
Looking at the mark on Du Sixian's forehead again, Lu Yibei felt a faint worry.
Speaking of which, this mark wouldn't have effects like controlling behavior or manipulating the mind, would it?
Human nature is the least resistant to testing; when a person can wantonly control others, it often triggers unexpected evil.
Zhao Ke is a bloody example.
Lu Yibei didn't think she could resist this temptation; she had never had good self-control when facing temptation.
She couldn't even control herself from spending money in love and magical girls.
What's more...
She was already unlucky enough; would it be too much if this mark brought misfortune to others?
Gazing at the sleeping Du Sixian, Lu Yibei bit her finger and paced back and forth restlessly.
In that instant, as if her brain suddenly cramped, she leaned forward and rubbed Du Sixian's forehead vigorously.
This scene left the Streetlight urban legend not far away dumbfounded; it could only roll up the fluttering moths around it with its tongue and continuously stuff them into its mouth to hide the fear in its heart.
Is this how high-level urban legend treat their dependents?
Good thing I'm just a free urban legend and haven't joined any organization! thought Streetlight urban legend.
"Sizzle—!"
A light sound came from her ear, like cold water dripping onto a hot iron plate; the smell of something burning entered her nostrils, and then Lu Yibei saw a puff of white smoke emanating from Du Sixian's forehead.
"Holy crap!" Lu Yibei exclaimed, quickly withdrawing her hand. Just then, Du Sixian woke up.
"Hmm—!"
Between sleep and wakefulness, Du Sixian slightly furrowed her brows and emitted a soft, bone-melting nasal sound.
Seeing Du Sixian's movement, Lu Yibei's body trembled slightly, and she quickly retreated a few steps, swiftly hiding Du Sixian's phone behind her.
Like a little Lolicaught red-handed by her parents doing something bad.
Du Sixian opened her eyes and looked around the environment in confusion.
The deserted street at midnight, backed by the night, illuminated by the dim yellow light of the streetlights, was like a yellowed old photograph, with a few streams of cold breeze flowing, mixed with a hint of Guihua fragrance.
Here...
Looking at the scenery that was both strange and familiar, Du Sixian slightly furrowed her brows and was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that she had left the range of the nightmare-like abandoned campus.
The Expert really succeeded in taking me out of that ghost place!
While inside Shihekou Middle School, Du Sixian had still held the most basic vigilance towards Lu Yibei, worrying that everything she saw was just an illusion influenced by the strange power in that campus.
Now, seeing that she had escaped danger unharmed, the last trace of doubt in her heart about Lu Yibei was completely gone.
However, how did the Expert manage to escape facing so many urban legend?
She tried to recall what happened before she fainted, but only fragmented images appeared in her mind.
Tracing back further, the last memory she could clearly remember stopped at the moment Lu Yibei softly comforted her not to be afraid and bravely join the Disc Spirit game.
Right, the Expert, she...
Lu Yibei's figure flashed through her mind, and Du Sixian hurriedly searched for her figure, then saw the small girl quietly watching her from behind.
She seemed to always be like that, with an indifferent expression, her eyes flickering with complex emotions that were hard to decipher, making people wonder about the thrilling stories behind her.
"Expert!"
Seeing Lu Yibei, Du Sixian's heart filled with joy, and she quickly sat up, waving at her and saying, "That's great, we both escaped successfully, what a happy ending!"
Hearing this, Lu Yibei's lips slightly parted, wanting to speak but hesitating, only giving an indifferent "Hmm!" as a response.
When you see what's on your forehead, you won't be happy anymore; not only won't you be happy then, you might even want to call the police! Lu Yibei thought worriedly.
"Expert, after this experience, we can be considered to have a life-and-death friendship; we must keep in touch often in the future!"
Du Sixian said with a smile, still calculating her little secret about recording urban legend videos in her heart.
"By the way, Expert, should we exchange contact information?" Du Sixian said, subconsciously reaching for her phone, and was slightly startled when her fingertips touched the bottom of an empty pocket.
"Huh! Where's my phone?"
As she spoke, she cast an inquiring look at Lu Yibei.
"..." Lu Yibei was silent, struggling for a moment internally, then expressionlessly shook her head, "I don't know. In the panic, I only focused on escaping and couldn't attend to other things."
Although lying goes against my nature, I can't help it! I hope I can fool her!
After tonight, when I solve the hunger problem, I shouldn't need to transform for a long time.
At that time, there will be no "Expert" in this world, only "Lu Yibei"; Du Sixian won't have anywhere to find trouble with me! thought Lu Yibei.
"That's true..."
Du Sixian nodded with a serious expression, muttering to herself, it's already very difficult for the Expert to take me out of such danger; it's a bit too much to ask her to protect my belongings.
Seeing that Du Sixian seemed to accept her answer, Lu Yibei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her hanging heart just about to settle down, when she heard Du Sixian's next words, and it instantly rose again.
"Huh? This phone is still here, and this backup one is also here; I thought they were all lost!"
Lu Yibei, "???"
How many phones do You have?!
Lu Yibei panicked, retreating step by step; she was ready to hear Du Sixian's scream when she discovered the strange thing on her forehead on the phone screen.
However...
Du Sixian took out her phone, lightly pressed the unlock button, aimed at the front camera for face unlock, and seeing this, Lu Yibei covered her eyes, not daring to watch what happened next.
And then... there was no 'then'.
Du Sixian checked the time and said softly, "It's almost four o'clock! I need to get back quickly. Huh? Expert, why is your face so pale?"
Lu Yibei glanced at Du Sixian expressionlessly and said lightly, "A little... caught a cold, it's fine!"
Why isn't she reacting? Lu Yibei slightly narrowed her eyes and looked at Du Sixian.
She saw her facing the front camera, pushing aside her bangs and studying something.
Lu Yibei quietly moved closer, secretly observing her expression out of the corner of her eye; just as she got close, Du Sixian suddenly turned her head back, looking distressed, and said, "Expert, my forehead..."
Lu Yibei's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly said, "It wasn't me, I didn't, I don't..."
"How did it get injured?" Du Sixian pointed to her forehead and said, "Look, the skin is peeling here!"
Lu Yibei was speechless for a moment, "Uh..."
"By the way, Expert, what did you just say?"
"Nothing." Lu Yibei replied lightly, her brows slightly furrowed.
Strange, can't she see it?
...
A corner of Hua City, a cluster of dormitory buildings huddled together, like a group of giants witnessing the city's rise, silent in the dark night.
Among the buildings full of historical charm, only one window still emitted a warm yellow glow; the white window screen swayed gently in the evening breeze, vaguely revealing a weathered silhouette, and a magnetic voice echoed in the room behind the window.
The layout of the room was not much different from other old houses; the space of over ten square meters was square, with a desk by the window, scattered with books related to urban legend, and displaying a computer and a series of simple broadcasting equipment.
Zhang Shan sat upright in front of the desk, wearing headphones, holding a cigarette in one hand and a microphone in the other, narrating his story with a magnetic, smoky voice.
After a day of running around, returning home and fiddling with his online radio station was the most comfortable thing for him.
"Hello, dear listeners, I'm Taxi Lao Zhang. It's been a few days, I wonder if you've missed me? Haha!"
"Getting back to the main topic, what I'm going to talk about today is a urban legend incident personally experienced by a taxi driver friend of mine."
Zhang Shan said, picking up the manuscript he had just finished writing after returning home, a smile of successful revenge appearing on his lips.
"The story begins on a dark and windy night. That day, he had been busy all day and was preparing to run one last trip before packing up and going home. Just then, at a crossroads, he picked up a strange girl..."
Zhang Shan spoke in a low tone, glancing at the scrolling bullet comments on the computer.
White Cut Chicken Under Mount Qingcheng: "The friend you mentioned wouldn't be yourself, would it?"
Not Teammates With Monks: "Strange girl? And then? Paid with flesh? Anchor, ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) I always thought you were a decent person, I didn't expect..."
Water-boiled Mermaid: "What the anchor said is true, I am that girl."
Online Dirty Old Man: "Anchor, show us your legs with the camera?"
...
Zhang Shan withdrew his gaze, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. freewёbnoνel.com
The audience in the live stream room is still so interesting, and they speak so well, I really like it here.
Thinking, he leaned closer to the microphone, just about to continue telling his story, when at this moment, the phone on the desk vibrated.
"Buzz—Buzz buzz—!"
Hearing the light vibration of the phone, Zhang Shan said "Sorry, taking a call!" to the audience and lightly slid the answer button on the phone with his fingertip.
"Hello, Uncle, is it convenient for you to pick me up now? I'm at the intersection below Shihekou Middle School."
Lu Yibei's voice came from the other end of the phone, accompanied by bursts of electromagnetic interference noise, sounding inexplicably strange.
Upon hearing the familiar voice from the phone, the smile on Zhang Shan's face froze, and then the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
She... does she know everything?
At this moment, Zhang Shan felt as if there was an invisible pair of eyes in the dark, spying on him, and a chill ran down his spine.
