Chapter 225: Luo Feng, I’m Scared

After finishing the meal, Luo Feng stretched lazily, feeling quite comfortable. Compared to those worlds where fighting was needed, this world might make people feel a bit creeped out, but it was relatively much more relaxed.

It was a pity that the ghosts in this world did not fear sunlight; otherwise, they wouldn’t need to be on guard during the daytime and could relax completely.

A shock went through Luo Feng’s heart. They didn’t fear sunlight? Then could he find a method to make Xiaoqian and Bai Xue appear even during the daytime?

Thinking of this, Luo Feng felt a faint excitement rising in his heart.

“Hey, what are you thinking of? You’re smiling so creepily,” Jinmei said nervously, crossing her arms and looking at Luo Feng with full alertness.

Luo Feng rolled his eyes in silence. He was already speechless about this girl; she seemed like a very sharp person, but why did she feel like a fool?

“Alright, it’s getting late, let’s go rest,” Luo Feng said, then stood up and left. He lived next door to Jinmei, and his Divine Sense could observe her at any time. If anything strange happened, he could rush over directly without taking a detour, just by smashing a wall.

Simple and quick. How good.

“Wait!” Jinmei called out to Luo Feng. She looked around suspiciously and said, “Luo Feng… I’m not sleepy yet. Can you stay and watch TV with me for a while?”

“Okay,” Luo Feng agreed.

The TV was only in Jinmei’s bedroom. Luo Feng and Jinmei sat on the bed. The lights in both the living room and the bedroom were turned on, making it bright as daytime. A woman’s voice on the TV was narrating an animal world show, making the room no longer so quiet.

Jinmei’s mood gradually relaxed. However, at this moment, the TV signal suddenly became unstable. The woman’s voice on the screen grew blurry and unclear, and her face became twisted due to the signal issues.

Giggle giggle giggle…

The woman’s voice on the TV twisted until it was impossible to tell if it was male or female, sounding like a searing roar. Finally, it slowly formed the sound of a corrupt wooden door opening, almost exactly like what Jinmei had heard before.

The woman’s appearance on the TV became misaligned. She looked as if her eyes were wide open, her mouth was split wide, and she was staring at Jinmei with unblinking eyes, as if she had died with her eyes open.

Jinmei tried to turn off the TV, but the remote control seemed to have malfunctioned and simply didn’t work.

“Ahh!” Jinmei curled up inside the quilt, grabbing Luo Feng’s clothing corner with both hands tightly. At this moment, she showed no more pretense and cried out, “Luo Feng, I’m scared! I’m so scared, wu wu…”

Luo Feng gently patted Jinmei’s shoulder and comforted her, saying, “Don’t worry, I will protect you.”

Jinmei nodded pitifully, her face covered in tears. Suddenly, she felt something extra in her hand. Looking down, she saw a little bear ornament lying in her hand.

Jinmei screamed and threw the bear away. This ornament had clearly fallen in the Company Bathroom, so how could it be here now?

Something became heavy on her body. Something seemed to press against her belly. Jinmei trembled as she used her shaking hands to pull back the quilt. A pale white woman’s face was lying on her chest.

“Ahhh~” Jinmei nearly suffered a mental breakdown. When would this endless torture finally reach its end…

With no hope and full of despair, escaping was useless. What exactly should she do…

Jinmei felt herself being dragged by two hands. Although she was being dragged toward the foot of the bed, Jinmei could clearly feel that there, it led not to the foot of the bed. As long as she was pulled over there, it would be damnation without end.

But struggling had no effect. Screaming was just futile. Facing ghosts, human power was so small…

Was this how she would die…

Suddenly, a pair of broad hands grabbed her arm, and at the same time, they lifted the quilt. Jinmei opened her eyes to look. Luo Feng was smiling at her with a heartless grin. Even though that smile looked so annoying, Jinmei felt it was the most intimate thing ever.

Luo Feng looked down at the Ghost of Kayako. Its black hair was full of dirt, and it only reached its waist. Its face was pale white, and its eyes actually had whites, but they were filled with fresh red blood vessels, as if they would burst out red Blood at any moment.

The Power of Death covered Luo Feng’s fingers. Then, he flicked it lightly on Kayako’s arm where she was holding Jinmei.

Kayako let out a searing scream, as if suffering great Pain. It pulled its hands back, and its whole body quickly crawled under the bed to Disappear.

After escaping death, Jinmei cried bitterly and hugged Luo Feng. Just now, Death had been so close to her. She never wanted to Experience that feeling of Despair a second time.

After a long while, it seemed she had cried herself tired. Jinmei lifted her teary eyes and looked at Luo Feng’s handsome face. She began to speak, “Luo Feng, I’m so scared. Will you stay and accompany me tonight, please?”

Luo Feng: “…” He knew this would happen, but he could not refuse to save her, after all, Jinmei had Sheltered him.

Nodding, Luo Feng said, “I’ll go turn off the lights in the Living Room first.”

“I’ll go with you.”

Jinmei grabbed Luo Feng’s clothing corner and followed closely behind him, looking like a pitiful Child who was afraid of being abandoned.

After turning off the lights, Luo Feng and Jinmei returned to the Bedroom. Luo Feng did not turn off the lights in the bedroom, for that would make Jinmei afraid.

The Ghost of Kayako had appeared again at some unknown time. Luo Feng thought for a moment and said, “You sleep first. I’ll Guard beside you.”

Jinmei shook her head repeatedly. She now feared the quilt itself. “You have to be with me, otherwise I do Not Dare to sleep.”

“Alright.” Luo Feng and Jinmei got into the quilt, but neither had plans to do anything. He did not Know if Maoshan Dao Arts would work on the Ghosts of this world. However, Luo Feng did not have high hopes. The Ghosts in this world were Defy Heaven. They were almost fearless and could be Seen by anyone at will.

If not for his Power of Death, Luo Feng would have no confidence at all to live safely in this world.

Perhaps because she was too tired, Jinmei fell asleep very soon. Luo Feng carefully Recalled the Plot. The timeline of Curse of Resentment was completely scrambled, and the story was told using flashbacks. So, for Luo Feng, figuring out the exact order of the People who died by the Ghost of Kayako was not an easy task.

Fortunately, Grandmother Yukie had not died yet. Based on this point, Luo Feng could determine that the next person to walk into the Haunted House and receive the Curse would be the volunteer, Lijia.

When Jinmei made a Phone Call to Kazumi at the Company, Luo Feng was right beside her. And Lijia had heard the message Jinmei left on the phone.

But Jinmei made the call at Night, while in the Movie, Lijia heard the message during Daytime. This left Luo Feng confused. This was not a place across two hemispheres; why would the Time be different?

Sighing, Luo Feng decided to go to the Haunted House tomorrow. On one hand, it was to Complete Mission One. On the other hand, Luo Feng was Curious to see exactly how many Ghosts were in the Haunted House. He also wanted to try Maoshan Dao Arts to see if they worked.

If they worked, he could draw Talismans and give them to Jinmei. That way, he wouldn’t need to Guard Jinmei side-by-side all the time…
