Mysterious Awakening

Chapter 138: The voice inside the mirror

The situation in front of him was indeed unimaginable.

Big Cousin didn't die, but his whole person entered the mirror. On the contrary, the invisible ghost appeared in front of everyone instead of Big Cousin.

If Yang Jian hadn't been careful enough to notice the details of the ghost's disguise, it would have been very likely for the ghost to deceive them and leave with Miao Xiaoshan.

Once they left, Yang Jian couldn't imagine what chain reaction it would cause.

But through this incident, Yang Jian could determine that the terror level of this ghost was not very high. It wasn't the kind of fierce ghost that would kill indiscriminately at the slightest provocation.

Otherwise, Big Cousin would have already died by now.

"Yang, Yang Jian, what should we do now?" Zhao Lei became somewhat panicked.

Before, when he wasn't sure if there were any supernatural events around him, he wasn't so alarmed. But now that he was certain that there was a ghost following them, he couldn't calm down.

Yang Jian looked at the glass in front of him and said slowly, "Don't panic for now. Since this ghost existed before in the restaurant and didn't kill anyone for several hours, it means that this ghost has some kind of restriction or special characteristics. So, we are temporarily safe."

"You mean, could that ghost be the mirror itself?"

Wang Shanshan said with a somewhat indifferent tone.

Yang Jian immediately said, "That's impossible. The mirror is fine. It's just an ordinary mirror. The problem lies with the ghost. But after the ghost revealed itself just now, it disappeared again. I haven't figured out some of the characteristics of that ghost yet. I need to ask Shangguan Yun to understand."

"In this situation, he must have encountered the invisible ghost when he was in the restroom."

"So, we must ask him to clarify some things. Only by understanding that ghost can we solve the problem."

Because ghosts couldn't be killed, that was the point.

Therefore, when encountering a ghost, the first thing that came to mind was not to have a fair and square confrontation with the ghost. The most important thing was to ensure one's own survival and avoid direct contact with the fierce ghost.

Ghosts couldn't die, but people could.

Even Yang Jian, a ghost tamer who had tamed two ghosts, didn't dare to be careless when facing a ghost.

"But his phone is broken, and communication is cut off. It's inconvenient to communicate. We can only write by hand. Does anyone have a pen and paper? If not, go buy some nearby." Yang Jian asked.

"No."

"I don't read books. Why would I bring that stuff?" Zhang Wei said.

Wang Shanshan also shook her head.

"Then who can help buy it? Or we can borrow from the bar downstairs." Yang Jian said.

"Brother Tui, we're filming a horror movie right now. If we split up, we might die. Let's forget it and stick together. That's the right thing to do." Zhang Wei vigorously shook his head.

Yang Jian looked at them and said, "Then I'll go, and you guys wait here."

"No, no. If you leave, we'll be alone too, right? Even if we're tied together like salted fish, we're still salted fish. If we encounter a ghost, we're still done for." Zhang Wei immediately shook his head.

"Then let's go together." Yang Jian said.

At this time, Wang Shanshan suggested, "We don't need to go. We can write on the mirror with water. He should be able to understand."

"That's a good idea." Zhao Lei immediately nodded.

No one dared to leave. They gathered together, especially when they were by Yang Jian's side, they could feel a sense of security.

"Zhang Wei, you go write, and I'll speak." Yang Jian said.

"Why me? Brother Tui, I can't do it. Look at my fingers. I clicked the mouse too much while playing PUBG yesterday, and now they're cramping. I don't have any feeling in them anymore. I can't move them. Ah, it hurts so much. My finger is cramping again. No, no, I need to go to the hospital and get it checked. I'm still young, I can't be disabled."

Zhang Wei held his hand in pain.

"What about Zhao Lei?" Yang Jian looked at him again.

Zhao Lei suddenly covered his chest and said, "Brother Tui, my chest feels tight. Suddenly, I can't breathe properly. It's over, it's over. I'm going to faint. I feel like I'm starting to suffocate. It's so uncomfortable. Maybe I'm poisoned by alcohol. It must be that way. The beer just now must have been a problem."

As he spoke, he fell down against the wall.

"Damn it, just die already. If you're like this, don't come to me for help when you encounter a ghost. Consider me a stranger." Yang Jian said.

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Wei suddenly laughed and said, "Yang Jian, I just remembered. Although my right hand is cramping, my left hand is fine. I can write with my left hand without any problem. Look at my left hand, it's so flexible. Writing is not a problem at all."

Brother Tui didn't care anymore, so why was he still playing?

"I suddenly feel a little better. It seems that my alcohol poisoning isn't that serious. I should be able to hold on."

Zhao Lei struggled and stood up, looking extremely weak.

Yang Jian said, "Since Zhang Wei, your hand isn't cramping, then you write."

"Big brother, why me again?"

"Because I suspect that the ghost is following you."

Yang Jian said seriously, "Didn't you say before that you played rock-paper-scissors in front of the mirror all night and won?"

"Now Shangguan Yun has encountered trouble in the mirror again, this is too much of a coincidence. You are the most suspicious, if you don't step up, who will? You can't expect others to clean up your mess, and I can't handle this. I need to stay alert and can't be too distracted."

Zhang Wei asked with a gloomy face, "Will there be danger?"

"I don't know, there might be danger, there might not be. Why don't you go get some paper and a pen?" Yang Jian suggested.

"Let's go together, I think that's the safest way. It won't take long if we go together." Zhang Wei said seriously.

Yang Jian twitched his mouth, "If you keep acting like this, I'm going to lose my temper. You're all so indecisive, if that ghost really wanted to kill, you would all be dead by now."

"I'll write it. We can't leave cousin alone here."

Miao Xiaoshan wiped her tears, her voice trembling with fear.

"Think it through, although the mirror is not a problem, there is definitely a connection between the ghost and the mirror, and there is a certain risk." Yang Jian said, somewhat surprised.

He didn't expect Miao Xiaoshan to be so brave at this time.

"It's okay, it's my fault that cousin is in this state. If I hadn't invited him to the gathering, he wouldn't have encountered this. And I'm not sure if he will still be in the mirror by the time you guys return. What if something happens when we try to leave together?" Miao Xiaoshan said anxiously. She and Shangguan Yun were relatives, and despite her fear, she was very concerned about him.

Yang Jian calmly said, "Since you've decided, let's start. If anything happens, I will ensure your safety."

His ghost realm could be opened in an instant, and once it was opened, he could take everyone out of here within a second. So he had to be constantly vigilant of his surroundings to ensure nothing unexpected happened.

"Okay." Miao Xiaoshan nodded.

"Ask Shangguan Yun if he saw anything unusual when he was in the bathroom." Yang Jian said.

Miao Xiaoshan immediately wrote on the mirror with her wet finger, "Cousin, don't be afraid, Yang Jian will find a way to solve this. He wants to ask you a few questions. Since you've lost your phone, this is the only way we can communicate."

On the other side of the mirror, Shangguan Yun looked terrified. He was standing in front of the mirror, pounding on it in a desperate attempt to get out.

But it was no use.

He felt like he was trapped in a cage, unable to escape.

Miao Xiaoshan's words gave him a glimmer of hope, and he quickly wrote on the other side of the mirror, "Help me~!"

"Yang Jian is asking if you saw anything unusual in the bathroom?" Miao Xiaoshan wrote hastily. Her handwriting was a bit sloppy, but it didn't affect the readability.

"No, I was just washing my face."

"Yang Jian, what do you think?" Miao Xiaoshan turned to him.

Yang Jian continued to ask, "Ask him how he got into the mirror."

Miao Xiaoshan quickly wrote, "Cousin, how did you get into the mirror?"

Shangguan Yun replied anxiously, "I don't know, what should I do now? I want to get out, I want to leave this place. Can I not get out?"

His expression was one of fear and urgency.

"Tell him to calm down." Yang Jian frowned.

Shangguan Yun's mental state was very poor, he was on the verge of collapse. It was difficult to ask him questions in this state.

"Cousin, calm down. If you're like this, it's hard for Yang Jian to help you. Think about it, did anything unusual happen in the bathroom?" Miao Xiaoshan wrote again.

"I don't know, I really don't know. I was just washing my face, I don't know when I got into the mirror."

Shangguan Yun wrote while shouting, "Tell Yang Jian to save me, I don't want to die, I don't want to die here......"

"With his current state, unless he calms down, it's hard to get any useful clues." Yang Jian frowned, "Miao Xiaoshan, comfort your cousin for now, let's not ask questions for the time being."

Unable to recall any details or provide any clues, it was pointless to ask.

Miao Xiaoshan had no choice but to comfort him while writing.

However, at this moment, Shangguan Yun suddenly wrote from the other side of the mirror, "I think I hear someone coming to the bathroom from outside, are the police here? You should have called the police, right? Let the police save me......"

Seeing this, Miao Xiaoshan's hand froze, she instinctively moved away from the mirror, her eyes filled with fear.

Everyone else also felt a chill down their spines, all falling silent.

Even Yang Jian frowned deeply, sensing something was wrong.

Because from their side, they didn't hear anyone coming to the bathroom.

Even if there was, Shangguan Yun in the mirror shouldn't be able to hear it.

The only possibility for him to hear the sound was that it came from inside the mirror.
