Yanami's pupils gradually dilated. It was the first time she heard such words. Could teenage love be so passionate?

For a moment, Yanami thought about whether Karen's face would turn red with jealousy if he sang a duet with Kusuke on KTK. It was a pleasant thought.

But she can't do that

"Ah..." She looked up at the stars in the sky.

"Good kid" Yanaijian couldn't do that. Caojie liked Hualian. As a childhood sweetheart, how could she not see it? She wouldn't be a green tea mistress to destroy other people's feelings. She hated that her 12 years of daily life could not compete with an airborne pink cow.

Yanami's expression darkened. There was a shadow in his eyes, as if tears were brewing...

He hated the powerlessness on Yana's face. He had long since erased the word "powerlessness" from his dictionary.

Countless times he recalled the high speed of the Zero in the rainstorm, and recalled himself running with his foot on the accelerator. He hated his cowardly face at that moment. If he was given another chance, he would definitely pull out the long knife on the side of the car door and rush back, even if he died!

He and Yanami had known each other for two days. As ordinary classmates who had broken the "strangers" relationship, he said to Yanami, "I'll treat you to dinner. Do you want to go to the Shangri-La for a buffet?"

.....

Yanami never thought that she would meet a classmate who could treat her to a meal at Shangri-La.

They took a night taxi, and the fare was paid by Youjing. This place was far from her home, and if nothing unexpected happened, she would definitely not have time to go back tonight. Oh, no, they still had to carry out the activities of the supernatural club, and that game was not supposed to start until after midnight, so she was supposed to stay overnight at Youjing's house.

Yanami, who just realized this, hurriedly sent a message to her mother, telling her that she was staying overnight at a classmate's house. In order not to worry her mother, she also attached a photo of Ukyo sitting across the table.

Ukyo is the best student in the class. He speaks on behalf of the students at parent-teacher conferences. All parents know him. Most importantly, Ukyo is a standard "good and obedient child" in the eyes of all parents. With him, Yanami feels that his mother will be relieved.

She originally hesitated between Ukyo and Kusuke.

Caojie is actually more reasonable, but the parents of both parties know each other, and the mother can find out that he is not at Caojie's house with just one phone call. By then, the lie will be exposed, which will be even more embarrassing. In this case, it is better to tell the truth.

Volume 8: Chapter : I will do anything to get the boy I like!

"Speaking of which... Ukyo, do you know that you are a good child in the eyes of your parents?"

"know."

"Haha~.....Am I the first person to know your true side? Smoking cigars, drinking strong liquor, listening to vinyl records, and having even more serious chuunibyou fantasies than the otaku in the class?"

Youjing frowned slightly. Although he really smoked the cigar and drank the liquor, he disagreed with the last point. He hated it very much when people put words like "fantasy" on him. It seemed very childish.

"Eat quickly! There are so many delicious foods, but they can't fill your mouth."

Yanami drank up all the yak yogurt and butter tea, and also devoured most of the mutton hotpot. Just as Ukyo was lamenting the terrifying appetite of girls who had just gone through a breakup, Yanami suddenly said, "It's over! My calorie intake has exceeded the limit! Damn it, why did I eat so much!"

As expected, every girl will have body anxiety, but it may not be a bad thing to change from anxiety about a broken heart to anxiety about body shape.

"What do you think Caojie and Hualian will eat tonight?"

Look, it’s mentioned again.

Ukyo doesn't care about what's happening with the two of them. I brought you here to dinner so that you can forget about them temporarily, at least tonight, and think more about the club activities. But since Yanaijian doesn't want to, don't blame him for killing and hurting her heart.

"Are you worried that Caojie won't have enough to eat tonight, so you helped eat your ex-boyfriend's portion?"

It sounded like a joke, but coming from Ukyo's mouth it wasn't funny at all, especially since he mentioned the word "boyfriend".

"No...I just really want to eat it." Yanai had no choice but to say this.

"Our dinner was too high in calories, you'll definitely wake up fat tomorrow. The good news is I didn't eat much, so I won't go to bed anxious tonight."

"Damn it Ukyo! I'm a carnivore!"

"You'll gain weight tomorrow."

"No, I've been exercising a lot. We can walk to your house later to work off the extra grease from dinner."

"Your boyfriend ran off with someone else."

“…Wu…Wu…How could you do this!”

Yanai was holding back tears, feeling wronged. "Although I know you're saying this for my own good, can I really be a green tea mistress and break up a couple?"

Ukyo said, "If you decide to go, I can sacrifice my looks to seduce that pink cow."

This sentence made Yanami's mind stop for a few seconds. She actually thought that this evil plan was really feasible, but the soul of the "good child" Yanami immediately came out to stop it. Who knew that at this time, Ukyo's words whispered in her ear like a devil -

"Yanaimi, when it comes to love, you have to do whatever it takes. If you like a boy, you have to get him no matter what!"

"Think of the wedding bells, Himemiya Karen in her white wedding gown, her lace-trimmed wedding shoes... the white roses in her hands, the hymns sung by the flower girls, and the ring in Caojie's pocket. As a good friend of both of you, you attended the wedding as a bridesmaid, watching Caojie place the diamond ring on Karen's finger. It was so beautiful... You blessed the newlyweds with all your heart."

"..."

Ukyo Tachibana.

He is such a terrible man, Yanai came to this conclusion.

...

After dinner.

Yana saw that she did as she said and walked with Ukyo to where he lived.

I thought a young man like him who could afford liquor and vinyl records must live in a two-story house in the city, but I didn't expect that this guy's house was actually a seven-story bachelor apartment.

Yanami will never forget that day, the first time she went to Ukyo's house. When she opened the door, the setting sun hit her face. She stood in the sunlight, stunned. It was the first time she saw such a transparent and bright floor-to-ceiling window.

The huge setting sun was falling outside the window. Youjing stood in the sunlight and put the black umbrella on the table. There were few things in the room, no records, no cigars, no liquor, and no corroded and rusted pistol parts. There was only an old-fashioned chest of drawers standing in the corner.

There was a coffee table, a TV cabinet, and a large bed covered with blue sheets on one side of the living room... There was a gas stove in the kitchen that had never been turned on, and an old double-door refrigerator.

This is all the furniture in the apartment.

Apart from that, she couldn't see any clutter and there were very few signs of life.

She realized that this was just a place for Ukyo to rest, and all his belongings might be kept in the school's paranormal club activity room. Yanami naturally brought in Ukyo's perspective and emotions. No wonder he wanted to keep the paranormal club so much. For him, that place was all of his youth.

Ukyo didn't know that Yanami was being sentimental.

So he didn't tell the other party that this was just his temporary residence, not his home. The sparse furniture was in memory of someone, and the decoration here was as close to the original "Room 31, Unit 15, Building 201" as possible.

Occasionally, for a few days every month, he would stay here and miss the girl in the baseball cap in the picture that Yanaijian saw.

He spends most of his time living in a two-story house in the city. He has a happy family and harmonious relationships with his children.

"It's still early, play with your phone for a while. I don't have a TV here." Youjing said.

Yanami was determined to complete this activity.

It was still early before midnight, and Yanami was lying on Ukyo's bed looking for everything related to the game. It wasn't that she wanted to lie on someone else's bed, but there was no sofa in the living room, so Ukyo's bed served as both a "sofa" and a "sleeping" bed.

Besides, Youjing didn't mind her lying on the bed, so she simply went down the slope and lay down.

After a while, she actually found a lot of information related to this game——

Some bloggers have suffered bad luck after playing this game. Many friends of gamers have posted that their faces were disfigured after playing the game. The details are vague, and some even have a configuration similar to the two of them tonight.

One was playing in the room, while the other was waiting outside the room ready to call the police.

As a result, the person disappeared alive in his own home. The police and private detectives could not find any clues. The poster suspected that his friend was dragged into the world in the mirror by some ghost while playing the game.

Yanajian became more and more frightened the more she looked. Could it be that she and Ukyo would follow in the footsteps of their predecessors?

But at the same time, the more she looked, the more curious she became. Suddenly, she felt a sense of excitement that she had never felt before. This was an experience she had never had when she was with Cao Jie. She had completely forgotten about the breakup and her mind was full of games after twelve o'clock.

Volume 9: Chapter The Game Begins

"Ukyo, how can I make sure you're safe?"

"Let's have a video call," You Jing said. "Turn on the video call and record the screen. If the video suddenly cuts out, call the police... Never mind, it might be too late. If you're brave enough, just open the door from the outside and see if I'm still alive. If you're not, just run away. I won't blame you."

"...Um.....has it really reached the point where people are dying? I don't think our paranormal club activities need to result in loss of life."

"I can't say for sure. I've done some research beforehand, and the information about this game online is a mixture of truth and falsehood, so there's definitely some danger."

Yanai Jianzhen was a little panicked. She checked the battery and signal of her mobile phone to avoid the video being interrupted due to signal quality or the alarm call not being able to be broadcast.

"Don't be nervous," Ukyo suddenly said. "From the information posted by other players, the only person in danger in this game is the [Player], that's me. You're just the [Accompanying Person], so you won't be in any danger."

"Don't say that... I don't want you to get into any accidents either. Honestly, I think you're a pretty good person."

Yanai seemed to remember something and suddenly said, "Thank you for treating me to bread at noon and the buffet in the evening..."

Youjing found a candle from the cupboard, then took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the candle.

Time passes slowly.

Twelve o'clock at midnight.

In Japanese culture, it is "the gates of hell are wide open" and when hundreds of demons roam at night, ghosts from the underworld and the netherworld will come into reality at this point in time.

Ukyo lit a candle and went into the bathroom, closing the door, maintaining a video call with Yanami, checking the condition of his folding knife, and checking the escape window.

"Ukyo...how is it?"

"The window won't open. I don't know if it's because the lock is rusted or what. It's really interesting. Ghosts in many movies have the skill of "sealing windows." The game hasn't even started yet, but I can't get out."

"Hey! How is this funny?"

Yanami admired Ukyo's courage. He actually took a candle and a sword and locked himself in the small and cramped bathroom at midnight.

The most important thing is that the lights in the room are also dark. Yana finds herself in this empty house, with only a wall between her and Ukyo. This makes her very scared. She might as well open the door and lock herself in the bathroom with Ukyo.

But such a game would lose its meaning, because the rules clearly state that the number of people in the bathroom must be "1".

"Tell me something...Ukyo, I'm a little scared."

Ukyo smiled and said, "Do you know why this game was played in the bathroom?"

"why?"

"Because a closed, dark welcome is most likely to trigger inner fear, mirrors...bathtubs...small windows...water...these things frequently appear in various horror works and are very likely to give people psychological hints. The person who designed this game is very clever. He grasped the weaknesses of human nature and knew how to create fear in those who play the game. Even a mentally healthy person may develop psychological problems after playing this game."

"Huh?" Yanaijian said quickly, "Then let's stop... It's just a game, it's not worth it."

"But I'm different from ordinary people." Ukyo's steady voice alleviated Yanami's fear. She found that Ukyo's emotions had not changed from beginning to end. He was so calm that he didn't seem like a high school student.

"Yanagi..."

Ukyo said, "I'm going to start...reciting your own name. The game requires you to recite it in front of the mirror for half an hour. If you're scared, put on your headphones and play a favorite song. Time...will pass quickly."

Yanami cooperated very well and started singing.

In the quiet single apartment, any movement would be magnified. Although there were two people in the room, they were relatively independent of each other. Yanami was alone outside, and those movements made her very uneasy, so she decisively started singing.

"Ha...ha..." Her smile was a little awkward. She hadn't gone to the karaoke bar to sit there and listen to Kusaki and Karen sing, but she had completed this part of the game at Ukyo's house. Listening to the music was today's "world bug," an inevitable triggering event. The two were equally terrifying. Yanami truly admired Kusaki. She was so frightened outside, so how strong a mental fortitude would Ukyo have to have to be to run this game?

What Yanami didn't know was that Ukyo had already started chanting his own name in front of the mirror.

"Ukyo, Ukyo, Ukyo..."

In the dark little room, the flickering flame was the only light source. Yanami could see Ukyo's jawline through the camera of his mobile phone. His eyes were as calm as a stone.

"This guy....."

Could it be that the job he told me before was real?

Yanai looked at the time and decided to call Ukyo out immediately after one and a half hours. She also participated in the event, so she had to do something. She couldn't just be a spectator outside the door.

The process of constantly repeating one's own name will gradually make people feel alienated from their names. Youjing once saw a social experiment in which several young people were asked to write their names continuously. As a result, by the end, the names were so distorted that even the people themselves could not recognize them. It seemed that the connection between them and the name was severed.

The designer of this game also made the same move.

Youjing felt that the mirror in front of him began to become blurry, and the lit candle was like a guiding lamp, trying to lead out the things in the mirror... or lead himself into the mirror.

When he should have been afraid, he became extremely excited.

In this world without any abnormalities, will the last glimmer of hope he is looking for appear?

The night wind came into the room from some gap, as if an invisible hand had grabbed the joints of his body. The temperature in the room began to drop inexplicably. This was not normal, because Youjing clearly felt the cold, as if someone had thrown him into an ice cellar.

In his ears, a vague voice began to whisper, as if something snake-like was lingering around him. The whispering made his ears feel stinging, and his eyes began to burn. The world began to gradually become clearer in his eyes! Everything was like an elevated highway on a rainy night. In that Maybach, his bloodline first awakened!

"Ukyo...Ukyo...Ukyo..."

"?"

He suddenly heard someone repeating his name.

At this moment, veins bulged on the back of Youjing's hand as he gripped the umbrella handle, and a sound of a sharp object scratching the tiles came from the bathroom floor. Youjing tilted his head and saw dense and hideous scratches on the floor!

pat!

The candle is out!
