Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 4: No Ghost Can Be Seen

"What did you say before about giving you super powers?" Zheng asked back about the business.

He himself had tested his special abilities in the past month in many different ways, but they didn't feel real when he used them under hallucination.

Without a real body, superhuman strength is just self-congratulation.

"Just lock onto me." Lin Yilin looked at him strangely.

"I'm just a young illusion who has just started out and I don't know anything." Zheng Fan could only say.

Lin Yilin took a deep breath and exhaled as if she was sighing: "It's not urgent. I'm not that urgent yet. Let's go and deal with the door first."

She came here on Aunt Chen's recommendation, to a door shop. The owner seemed to be an acquaintance of the landlord, and just came here to say hello and pay the money.

Zheng Fan walked all the way over and tried to touch the doors used for display in the store, but he passed through them lightly.

Unsurprisingly.

Although he is down to earth, it is difficult for him to touch the real things.

At this time, someone else came into the store and passed behind Zheng Fan.

Zheng Fan seemed to sense something and turned around to see a haggard young man walking in and going straight to the shop owner.

The shop owner also recognized him and asked, "Mr. Chen Wen, the door you want is ready and is being sent to you for replacement."

"That's good, let's hurry up." Chen Wen nodded quickly, looking quite anxious.

Zheng Fan looked at the man, thoughtfully.

Lin Yilin approached him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's a strange attraction." Zheng Fan said.

"Gay?"

"are you joking?"

Zheng Fan looked at Lin Yilin's serious face.

It seems that her personality may not be as serious and cold as her appearance.

Lin Yilin nodded: "I was joking. Your behavior shows the sexual orientation of an ordinary person. As for your feeling towards that person, it may be because this gentleman is very close to your 'world'."

Zheng Fan realized something: "What do you mean?"

"He has been targeted by the hallucination, and it has begun to exert its influence. Phew, I'm lucky, maybe I can take on this job." Zheng Fan could sense a hint of eagerness in Lin Yilin's calm tone.

"You seem happy?"

"If you want to maintain the operation of the firm, you naturally need to have good performance. I haven't received any orders since my adoptive father passed away. In other words, I personally have no proof of my achievements in the industry. At this time, even if the other party cannot afford the compensation, I can still give the greatest discount."

Lin Yilin’s analysis is very clear.

……

Chen Wen stood listlessly at the door of the store and lit a cigarette.

"Good morning sir."

The sudden greeting scared him so much that he almost dropped the cigarette in his hand.

He turned around and saw Lin Yilin: "What's the matter?"

Lin Yilin didn't say much and directly handed over her business card.

Chen Wen took the business card and saw the three big words "Law Firm" on it. His face suddenly changed and he pushed the business card back: "No, no, I don't need it. I don't have the money."

"I can handle this for you for free. You have probably been experiencing abnormalities around you for quite some time. The dark circles on your face and the bloodshot eyes show that you haven't had a good night's sleep for a long time." Lin Yilin confessed.

"No money?"

"It's just a small firm. We need some fame when we start our business," Lin Yilin confessed.

Chen Wen's face was uncertain. Suddenly, his eyes passed Lin Yilin and looked behind her. His face turned pale and his pupils dilated.

"That!" Chen Wen suddenly pointed behind Lin Yilin.

Lin Yilin looked back suspiciously, then turned back: "Did you see anything?"

Chen Wen was stunned for a long time. Just now, he vaguely saw a strange black shadow flash past behind Lin Yilin, but at this moment there was indeed nothing there. He seemed to have just seen an illusion.

"...Sorry, I need to go back and think about it." In the end, Chen Wen accepted the business card, put out the cigarette he had barely smoked, turned around and left quickly.

"It's not easy to be a salesperson if you're too straightforward." Zheng Fan poked his upper body out from the wall next to him like a ghost.

"I'm not a salesperson. Even if I leave him alone, someone from the firm will find out what's wrong with him and go find him. Sometimes they'll even force him to buy something..." Lin Yilin retorted, then looked at Zheng Fan: "Why did you scare him just now?" "I tried to see if he could see me. It seems he could, but I'm not sure what he saw."

"People who cannot truly see the hallucination itself will have their own fluctuating thoughts affect the images they see. This is also a troublesome point in the process of confirming hallucinations," Lin Yilin explained.

Zheng Fan stared at Chen Wen's back for a while and nodded slightly.

As for the door, the shop owner here quickly sent someone to bring a new door to install.

Lin Yilin was just about to follow him back, she turned around and called out, but found that there was no response from Zheng Fan.

The surroundings were empty and there was no sign of Zheng Fan at all.

……

Chen Wen finished a day's work tiredly and was rushing home.

The night in the metropolis is still bustling. In the gray district, the carnival belonging to another group of people may have just begun. The chaos between gangs, agencies, and processing bureaus will mostly be revealed at this time.

However, Xixikoko Street is the largest gray area in the vicinity, and the control is better than that in other remote places. As long as you don't go to some remote places to commit suicide, you generally won't get into trouble.

Just what happened in the last few days...

tread……

Strange footsteps suddenly sounded from behind him. Chen Wen shuddered and turned back sharply, but still saw nothing.

Chen Wen's face turned pale and his back felt cold as he stood under the street light.

He stared at what was behind him, and after a moment he shouted desperately, "I see you! Come out!"

No one or anything responded to him.

Little did he know that in front of him was a hideous, distorted, pale, swollen face that was almost touching his face.

Zheng Fan changed his face back to normal. He looked at Chen Wen in front of him, who was still holding on with all his strength and shouting bravely at the alley, and was speechless.

I still can't see it. Just like what Lin Yilin said, the other party has little to do with Zheng Fan. He is just affected by other illusions and can occasionally capture some of his movements more frequently.

But this time, I approached her openly and almost kissed her, but she couldn't see it.

It was a waste of time that Zheng Fan even made a pretty good face.

This is part of Zheng Fan's current abilities, and he notices that he can change his body, deform and transform.

It can vary in size from place to place, and can be up to tens of meters high. If it is small, it has only been tested to be the size of a mosquito.

But the change is not automatic. It is difficult for the body to adapt after becoming an animal with a very different body structure.

After calling a few times and getting no response, Chen Wen turned around and ran quickly towards his residence.

A slightly old apartment building, but in a good location, right at the junction of Xixikoko Street and the nearby ring road, it easily gives people a sense of security.

Ding~.

The elevator door opened and Chen Wen stepped into the dim apartment corridor.

The voice-activated light turned on immediately, but then suddenly went out.

Then it lit up again and kept flashing.

"Damn it, why hasn't this broken lamp been repaired yet!" Chen Wen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and cursed in a low voice.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew behind him. Chen Wen turned around and saw nothing behind him but a dark corridor. It seemed as if there was something hidden at the end, but it was just an illusion.

He didn't dare to think too much, and hurried back to his rented house, took out the key to open the door, and sneaked in through the crack of the door.

With the sound of a door closing, the corridor returned to silence, leaving only a shadow looming under the flashing of the voice-controlled light.

It slowly raised its hand toward the new door in front.

thump... thump...

The knock on the door echoed softly.

Next to this ghost figure, Zheng Fan leaned against the wall, half-opened his eyes, watching the other party's movements.

"Friend, nice to meet you?" He opened his mouth to say hello.

But after knocking on the door, the other party disappeared, with no intention of paying any attention to Zheng Fan.

Now, even the “ghosts” can’t see me.
