Weird Cards: I've Become a Ghost

As soon as he finished speaking...

The two didn't have time to think about which idiot would call at this time; instead, driven by their instinctive fear, they ran for their lives.

However, to avoid the phone ringing in his pocket constantly providing the monster with "location" information, and considering that the caller might be someone or something important at this time, the man thought it over carefully and hurriedly pulled his phone out of his pocket while running. Without even looking at the caller ID, he directly pressed the answer button.

"Hello, it's me."

The next second, a deep, magnetic voice came from the phone.

"Hello sir, are you looking to buy a house? Our manager said that Binhai is very likely to be ruined, so we can offer a 90% discount if you buy a house now."

man:"......"

After exchanging a few friendly greetings, the man quickly hung up the phone, put his phone away, and continued his "escape" journey.

Upon seeing the two of them flee, the monster, like a child who had discovered a new toy, let out a fierce and excited roar, dropped the leg it was holding, and began to chase after them.

Although the two were running at full speed and their physical strength was almost exhausted, they gritted their teeth and persevered because of the monster that was getting closer and closer behind them. They knew very well that if they stopped, they would only face death.

Fortunately, the two of them exercise regularly and have a habit of long-distance running, which is why they have been able to persevere for so long.

However, given the monster's speed, unless something unexpected happens, the two of them will be caught up sooner or later.

But as the saying goes, accidents happen all the time.

Just as they reached a corner, a blond-haired boy suddenly rushed out, nearly colliding with the two fleeing individuals.

"Are you all in such a hurry to be reborn?" the blond-haired kid grumbled.

Despite the harsh words spoken by the other party, the two who were desperately trying to escape didn't care. They knew that their only chance of survival was to continue running.

The blond-haired boy noticed something was wrong after seeing the two men's terrified expressions and their fleeing posture.

Soon, after hearing a low growl coming from not far away, he immediately realized that something was wrong.

He instinctively turned his head and saw a monster rushing towards him.

"What the hell is this thing?"

Upon seeing this, the blond-haired boy's face turned pale, but it was too late when he tried to escape.

The next moment, the monster pounced like a hunting beast, pinning down the blond boy who hadn't even had time to react.

In an instant, blood gushed out, and a piercing scream escaped from the blond-haired boy's mouth.

His screams constantly jolted the nerves of the two fleeing men, making their hearts tighten suddenly.

They then dared not relax for a moment and started running at full speed again.

After tearing the blond-haired boy to shreds and ripping off his thigh, the monster, having played with it for a while, dropped the thigh again and continued chasing after them after sensing the escape of its two prey.

Fortunately, with the help of the "selfless" blond kid, the two of them were given a lot of time and distance.

"Go there."

At this moment, the man running in front pointed to a narrow alleyway to the side, which the monster, given its size, should be the one it had passed through.

They then rushed into the alley, and in the quiet and dim environment, the sound of their hearts pounding seemed to become even more pronounced, but it was clear that it was not yet time to completely relax.

Because they could feel the monster's roar getting closer and closer.

"Quick, we need to find somewhere to hide!"

The woman whispered anxiously.

She knew that if they continued running, they would be caught up sooner or later, so she might as well find a safe place to hide while the monster was still ahead.

The man beside him glanced at a half-closed door next to the alleyway, and on a whim, he pulled the chain on the door—which was only good for honest people—pushed the door open, rushed inside, and then quickly turned around and closed the door.

It appeared to be an old, dilapidated warehouse, covered in dust, with a pervasive sense of decay and desolation in the air.

However, the two of them couldn't care less about that at the moment. They quickly hid behind a dilapidated shelf, trying to use the goods piled up on it to cover their figures. Then they held their breath and tried to slow down their heart rate.

Soon, the dilapidated warehouse, which looked like it hadn't been visited in a long time, returned to its usual tranquility.

The two looked at each other without saying a word, and after a moment of silence...

Roar!

Just then, a series of low footsteps and a monster's hoarse roar came from outside the alley.

Judging from the noise, the monster seemed to be frantically searching for their tracks outside the warehouse.

At this moment, both of their palms were sweating profusely from fear and tension. They held each other's hands tightly, trying to comfort each other or vent their inner tension.

After a while, the footsteps and roars outside gradually subsided and eventually disappeared, as if the monster had left in frustration after its fruitless search.

Upon realizing this, the two breathed a sigh of relief, a great weight lifted from their hearts, and exchanged a knowing glance.

"We're safe for now. That monster shouldn't be able to find us for a while."

The man spoke softly, then gently stroked the woman's shoulder, trying to offer her some comfort.

The woman nodded slightly, then slumped to the ground, leaning against the dusty shelves.

The series of events that occurred not only severely depleted her physical strength, but also caused her mental state to gradually collapse, with fear and despair gradually invading her soul.

Upon seeing this, the man opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something more comforting.

But considering that the monster might "come back for a surprise attack," and given that we've finally got a chance to catch our breath, it's best to say as little as possible.

In the current situation, it's good to let the woman calm down on her own.

With that thought in mind, the man looked around and then began to search inside the warehouse.

He needed to confirm whether the warehouse was truly safe.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up a broom from the ground and used it as a weapon, then carefully "patrolled" the warehouse.

This warehouse is neither particularly large nor small.

It took the man more than ten minutes to inspect the warehouse. He wouldn't have taken so long if he hadn't wanted to avoid making any noise.

A tense atmosphere permeated the warehouse at this moment.

The man gently put down the broom, walked to the woman's side, and said in a low voice, "I've checked. This warehouse has two doors. We came in through the back door. The front door is locked from the outside, and there are no monsters inside, so for now, it's safe here."

"We can rest here for a while and then make plans later."

The woman had recovered by this time, but her face still showed a trace of fear and panic.

After all, she's just an ordinary person. It's already quite impressive that she didn't scream and was still able to run when faced with such a situation.

The woman pressed her lips together, her gaze fixed on the dark, foggy sky outside the warehouse window.

"What exactly is going on?"

She lowered her voice and murmured to herself, her body trembling slightly.

Ever since the monster in the movie theater walked out of the screen, she and her boyfriend have been in a state of panic and fleeing, and have not had any time to think about what is going on.

Upon hearing her muttered question, the man followed her gaze to the thick black fog outside the window and whispered, "I don't know either, but judging from the situation, we've probably encountered something strange."

The woman was not surprised by what the man said.

She had her suspicions, but having grown up in Binhai, she had never seen such a bizarre attack. It was as if the entire city was shrouded in an eerie shadow. Before this, the most serious bizarre incident in Binhai had only affected a wealthy neighborhood.

So the woman was silently wondering what was going on. Why were these bizarre attacks covering such a wide area, and why were the monsters from the movie coming out of the movies?

Thinking of this, the woman was filled with remorse.

"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have watched a horror movie today."

The man shook his head and comforted him, "No one would have expected something like this to happen."

In his view, accidents are always unpredictable.

"So what do we do now?"

The woman looked at the man and asked, her voice revealing a hint of anxiety and tension.

After a moment of contemplation, the man replied with a hint of helplessness, "The monsters outside are beyond the capabilities of ordinary people like us. All we can do is find a place to hide and wait for this bizarre attack to end."

"If we're lucky, we might even run into some rescuers."

Hearing this, the woman seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but ask again, "Hasn't the Night Watchers' Division been established in Binhai? I heard that the Night Watchers there are even more powerful than the original Special Operations Team. So we should be safe soon, right?"

However, upon hearing this, a look of worry appeared on the man's face.

He then silently looked again at the black fog filling the sky outside the window. Having some knowledge of strange events, he had already guessed what the black fog was.

He didn't say it because he was afraid that saying it would intensify the woman's "fear".

If it were any other time, he would definitely say so.

"Don't worry, we'll definitely be safe."

But now...

The thought of the monster that seemed to have stepped out of the movie screen, the deserted streets, and the black mist that seemed to cover the entire sky made him hesitate.

He wasn't sure if the Ghost Master could handle such a bizarre event, which was comparable to a natural disaster.

After all, he's just an ordinary person.

However, after much deliberation, adhering to the principle of "honesty is the foundation," he decided to tell a white lie.

The man nodded, seemingly agreeing, and said, "Yes, it will be safe soon."

"The Night Demon Slayers will come to our rescue. They are experts in this field and will surely be able to handle this strange incident quickly."

The man's voice held a glimmer of hope, though he was unsure whether the Night Demons' tamers would come to their rescue.

But he knew in his heart that what his girlfriend needed most at this moment was a glimmer of hope, and that as long as she had a glimmer of hope, she had a chance to survive.

Just then, as the woman was about to say something, the man's expression suddenly changed slightly. He immediately stepped forward, covered the woman's mouth, and then made a shushing gesture to tell her to be quiet.

next second.

Roar!

A faint, low growl came from not far away.

Has that monster returned?

However, judging from the direction the sound was coming from, it didn't seem to be from the previous location, but rather... the front door of this warehouse!

The monster somehow walked to the front door of the warehouse without anyone noticing?

It seems the other party didn't leave at all, but instead kept lingering nearby, as if they were certain the two of them were hiding nearby.

Thinking about this, the man suddenly realized that since this monster came from that horror movie, does that mean it also possesses the abilities of the monster in that movie?

Upon realizing this, the man suddenly understood.

If he remembered correctly, this monster seemed to possess some special ability, allowing it to roughly pinpoint the location of its prey, meaning...

"It's no longer safe here!"

The man's expression turned somber and grave.

They finally had a chance to catch their breath, but it wasn't long before they had to go back to living the life of "fleeing".

Fortunately, the monster doesn't seem to have found their exact location yet.

At this moment, the man recalled the description of the monster in the movie. It seemed that the monster's abilities were mainly used indoors, and would be greatly weakened once it went outdoors.

No wonder the other party hasn't found them yet.

Thinking of this, the man could only silently pray that a demon slayer would come to save them.

Meanwhile, in the dark warehouse, time seemed to slow down abnormally under the shadow of fear. A suffocating and tense atmosphere enveloped the two, who, as ordinary people, silently prayed and quietly waited for the monster to leave.

Perhaps another "prey" will appear at this moment, and then the monster will no longer be targeting them.

Suddenly, a loud crash echoed through the warehouse as a broken wooden plank fell from the upper shelf and slammed onto the ground with a tremendous thud.

"not good!"

The man's expression immediately changed.

This commotion will definitely attract the attention of that monster outside.

Even the woman whose mouth was covered showed fear in her eyes.

However, the man was not going to sit idly by. Just as he was about to leave with his girlfriend through the back door, a low growl suddenly sounded outside.

That was the sound of a monster.

But the next second, another low growl rang out.

However, after hearing these two distinct roars, the man suddenly stopped moving.

He looked at the front door of the warehouse with a puzzled expression and muttered to himself.

"When did bears first appear in Binhai City?"
