Chapter 249 Mirage

Strong fear invaded Xia Jiang's heart. Zhang Yunian could clearly feel Xia Jiang's breathing became rapid and his body was trembling violently.

But as long as she doesn't move... as long as she believes in him, just keep it still...

The smell was foul, cold, and weird. Xia Jiang could not curb her fear. She did not escape or screamed just because her body was tightly held by Zhang Yunian.

Why did I enter this place?

Where is this... the ocean full of fog, the female ghost full of mystery, the ominous wind emitting a foul smell like a drowning person.

How long does it take to end...

The female ghost was still by my side, but as time passed by little by little, Xia Jiang finally discovered the strangeness of the current situation.

It seems...can't see them?

The wind with the smell of the sea became even colder, and the skin of Xia Jiang and Zhang Yunian was biting cold. In this strange and tragic wind, the female ghost finally... slowly left the house.

Xia Jiang's heart was pounding, and there was no sign of relief until the female ghost's figure completely disappeared.

"Miss Xia Jiang, can you leave?" Zhang Yunian's voice sounded in her ears.

Xia Jiang came to his senses, struggled slightly, and lowered his head and left his chest.

As a policeman, she understands very well what the suspension bridge effect is.

Simply put, it was a ridiculous mentality of mistakenly thinking of love by throbbing caused by fear, but in this terrifying sea, the mysterious Snow Light, she felt something trembling in her heart, which was more like something else than fear.

“It…why can’t it see us?”

Xia Jiang’s question seemed to be to deliberately stagger the topic and calm down his slightly confused heart.

But in fact, she really wanted to know too much.

"Because of this." Zhang Yunian took a step in a certain direction while speaking.

Then, Xia Jiang watched Zhang Yunian... disappear.

Her eyes widened in disbelief, this time it was true.

"Do you understand?" Zhang Yunian's voice appeared in the empty air.

Xia Jiang was slightly stunned, and then... she finally showed a sudden enlightenment.

It turns out... are the sea and fog all prompts?

It's dawn.

In the second half of the night, Zhang Yunian rested well, and Xia Jiang slept for a short while because Zhang Yunian said that the possibility of the ghost coming again was very low.

"This should...it's the last day, right?" Xia Jiang rubbed his eyes, and finally a little hope was brought to his tone.

"Hmm." Although Zhang Yunian answered her question, his mood didn't seem to be very high.

"Are you worried about anything?" After last night, Zhang Yunian's thoughts and opinions suddenly rose a lot in Xia Jiang's heart.

Zhang Yunian nodded. He did not hide his worries in his heart and said, "I still can't understand why the name of this banquet was the Lost Island. Moreover, although the incident happened very strangely, no one died at the moment. I think..."

Before Zhang Yunian could finish his words, a shrill howl suddenly sounded in the cabin.

"ah!!!"

Is it Peta?!

The young man who was mentally ill due to the banquet?

Zhang Yunian immediately rushed out of the room.

"Hello!"

Xia Jiang quickly followed him.

When the two arrived at the room where the sound was making a sound, there were already three people at the door.

Golden fox, beetle, and... Lin Duanfei.

All three of them were at the door.

"What's going on? Are you not together?" Zhang Yunian asked.

When they escaped from the past world, the four of them escaped together, but Zhang Yunian fell behind.

But judging from the current situation, the four people seemed to have escaped separately.

"You don't think that the four of us have a friendship with each other, right?" The golden fox leaned against the wall with a sarcastic smile on his face.

"Breaking the door open first, it's locked inside. The screams are not long before. Maybe Pingtai will be saved." Lin Duanfei said in a deep voice.

"Okay." Zhang Yunian nodded.

"Hey, aren't you worried that you will run into a ghost head-on after you knock the door open?" asked the Golden Fox.

Zhang Yunian turned his head to look at him: "If there were ghosts here, you wouldn't be here now. Or you think that even if ghosts appear, they will not threaten your life." The golden fox stared at his eyes exaggeratedly and clapped his hands: "It's so amazing, Mr. Lawyer."

He said with a smile: "We don't have to pretend anymore. I believe everyone's experience last night was the same. What we encountered in these three days was... a mirage."

"I'll count one, two, three." Lin Duanfei didn't listen to the golden fox at all, and just looked at Zhang Yunian.

"Um."

"one."

"two."

"three!"

The two of them used force together and knocked open the door with a "bang".

As soon as the door opened, the two saw Hirata.

He lay on the ground, his eyes wide open, as if he didn't believe he had died like this, and he opened his eyes wide open desperately. His dissipated pupils were filled with fear, and there was dry blood between his mouth and nose. The ferocious expression on his face had been fixed and formed, condensing into pain and despair.

The five people who saw Pingta's body were silent, and a strong sense of strangeness hovered in the room.

"What's wrong, his body... doesn't seem to die just now, it seems to have died last night." Fengliu whispered.

Others also noticed this. It took less than five minutes from the sound of the cry to the arrival of everyone here, but the body of Hirata had been dead for more than a few hours no matter how hard it was.

"Let me ask first, did you meet the female ghost who came to visit last night?" Lin Duanfei said.

"certainly."

"Um."

“We met too.”

All four of them gave affirmative answers.

"Then... the way you survive is..." Lin Duanfei didn't finish speaking.

The golden fox said with a smile: "Yes, I hide in the folded space, so I said...we are in a huge mirage."

"Didn't you escaped the attack like this?"

The sound of the golden fox echoed in the room.

He was right, the ocean, the fog, and the hull that became extremely large compared to the Snow Light of the past, and... those transparent, water-like things.

These... are all prompts.

"In Hokkaido folklore, there is a monster in the sea. It is as transparent as water, and can create illusions that are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, trapping the people and ships on the sea forever." Fengliu said word by word.

In fact, in that world where he didn't know whether it was the past world or the fog on the sea, he had already had this kind of speculation when he saw that transparent and viscous liquid.

The facts are almost consistent with his speculation.
