Chapter 321 Split up
Chapter 321: Separation

"what!!!!!"

Ouyang Kang's screams even drowned out the violent wind and rain, piercing through the walls and reaching the ears of several people.

Xu Zhifei and Song Que felt a chill, and then they heard quick footsteps behind them.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

Such a quick move...

The person behind him is definitely not a human.

I can’t think about it… and I can’t look back. The thing chasing me will only fill me with fear.

"Run separately."

"Okay!" Song Que agreed without hesitation. Then he stopped and let Xu Zhifei choose the road first.

This momentary pause allowed Xu Zhifei to glance at him sideways.

Then, Xu Zhifei chose to go straight and move between the corridors on the first floor.

Seeing Xu Zhifei running away and the footsteps behind him getting closer, Song Que immediately turned up the stairs and went straight to the second floor.

I have repaid the kindness you showed me before.

Song Que felt relieved.

But the price was... because of his deliberate waiting, the ghost had already chased him to the second floor.

Song Que didn't dare to be distracted any longer. He increased his speed to the limit and fled desperately.

……

Xu Zhifei stopped walking, slightly out of breath.

The footsteps behind me did not catch up.

The ghost was led away by Song Que.

She immediately took out her cell phone and called Bai Yanliang.

However, the response was: "Sorry, the number you dialed is out of service area..."

Not in the service area?
Is it the weather or the ghost?

Xu Zhifei couldn't tell.

But she knew that Bai Yanliang left suddenly just now because he must have discovered something, and he must... have a way.

……

"Calm down... I can't let myself get distracted."

Song Que hid in the snakehead's room and took deep breaths.

Although he repaid Xu Zhifei's favor, he attracted the ghost's attention. Although Song Que did not regret it, the fear in his heart inevitably emerged.

He could no longer maintain the calmness he had at the beginning.

However, the current situation is not too bad. The ghost's ability is to kill people through the script. Now that it has emerged from Wang Rui, it means that it has broken the script.

Moreover, Song Que did not feel that this evil ghost had any other terrifying abilities.

It cannot teleport or sense anything. Its speed is not ridiculously fast, and its senses are not abnormally sensitive.

Although its power is still unknown, at present, it does not seem to be very powerful except for its immortality.

Song Que wiped the sweat rolling down his forehead. He decided to stay here for a while and then go back to the restaurant to fight the evil spirit with the old method.

This villa is quite large. As long as you pay attention to the movements around you, it is not too difficult to avoid being found by a ghost that has no teleportation or sensing abilities.

As long as you are out of its field of vision, even if you walk around aimlessly, the probability of being caught by the ghost is not high.

The question now is... where is the way out?

It is not a good thing that the evil ghost is forced to reveal its true form. Although it has lost the ability to write scripts and kill people, it can still hunt and kill slowly in this villa.

They are human beings, and human physical strength is limited after all.

If the mission duration is seven days as stated in the mission requirements, then they definitely won't be able to last that long.

However, Song Que believed that the mission would not last seven days.

He always felt that... Wu Ji's "authority" seemed to have declined.

The mission requirements could be manipulated, which was simply unimaginable in the past. They set out a day in advance, but unexpectedly the mission was triggered.

It is hard to imagine what Du Shangjing is experiencing now. Logically speaking, he did follow the task requirements strictly and did not violate any regulations.

But who knew that the mission requirements were actually fake?
It is incredible that they have to discover the real information themselves.

In Song Que's opinion, it was as if Wu Ji was affected by some force majeure.

But after thinking about it this way, it was even more strange. In Song Que's impression, Wu Ji had never been a positive image, but this mission made him a little suspicious.

Wu Ji...seems to be trying his best to "leak" the mission information to them.

However, this time, Wu Ji was suppressed by a more powerful force, a force that was even powerful enough to modify the mission information released by Wu Ji.

Just as Song Que was daydreaming, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door...

who is it?

ghost?
Or Bai Yanliang and the others?
Song Que really wanted to open the door and take a look, but the current situation clearly did not support him to do so.

If it was a ghost, wouldn't he be dead instantly?
At this moment, the footsteps outside the door stopped.

Song Que's scalp tightened and he held his breath.

Is it a ghost?
Ninety-nine percent chance that it's a ghost...

No one would walk slowly at a time like this, except ghosts.

Song Que was already certain that the person standing at his door was a ghost.

Now...what should I do?
……

Since the call was not connected, Xu Zhifei decided to go to the lobby to find Bai Yanliang and Qi Nian first.

They didn't know what had happened yet. If they ran into the ghost when they returned to the restaurant, they would be in big trouble.

Just as she was thinking this, a hand patted her shoulder from behind.

Xu Zhifei was not panicked because she guessed who it was.

"I'm going to find you."

Xu Zhifei looked at Bai Yanliang, then glanced behind him.

"Where's Qi Nian?"

Bai Yanliang pointed to the ground and said, "I asked her to hide in the basement."

Xu Zhifei frowned, "Do you want Qi Nian to release the ghost behind the iron gate?"

"No, it's too dangerous."

"You misunderstood." Bai Yanliang looked at her in surprise, "The way to survive is not to let the two ghosts kill each other, but to be with Song Que."

Xu Zhifei really didn't expect this statement.

"why?"

Bai Yanliang did not explain for the time being, but asked: "Where is Song Que?"

Xu Zhifei pointed to the second floor and said, "He led the ghost to the second floor."

Bai Yanliang's expression changed slightly, "He can't die, go help him."

Xu Zhifei nodded, and the two of them immediately prepared to go to the stairs to the second floor.

At this time, Bai Yanliang suddenly stopped and said, "No, we can't go up from the same direction. Let's go one side each. You use the stairs on the corridor side, and I'll go to the stairs on the restaurant side."

"Ah."

Xu Zhifei nodded and did not refuse.

"Be careful."

"Yeah." Xu Zhifei responded.

Bai Yanliang had just taken a step forward when he heard a subtle voice saying, "Be careful."

He turned around and saw Xu Zhifei had already gone up the stairs.

Is it an illusion?

Maybe……

Bai Yanliang turned around and went to the restaurant.

Soon, he arrived at the restaurant.

There was a corpse on the ground, and it was vaguely visible that it was Ouyang Kang.

But Zhan Yunhong and Liu Ruonan were not there.

It turned out to be just as he had guessed.

If the ghost gave up the script and chose to appear and attack directly, its first target would be Song Que.

The moment he saw the video, he understood the significance of Song Que.
