It wasn't long after Pei Yu left that the news of his death spread everywhere. This was obviously a premeditated event.

Ji Zhe thought that Pei Feng had killed Pei Yu, but in fact, even Pei Feng didn't know how Pei Yu died. He lowered his head in thought, and remembered the last words Pei Yu said to him before leaving. It was a warning tone that Pei Feng had never heard before.

"I hope you are a person who keeps your promises. After this is over, please don't bother Ji Zhe and the two people you sent to my room before."

"Are you so sure that what you give me is what I need?"

Pei Feng had always shown disdain, contempt and indifference to Pei Yu at home, so Pei Feng did not think that Pei Yu would know that he actually wanted to kill him.

After all, they are related by blood. He has tried countless times to anger Pei Yu but never succeeded.

It was not until now, when the news of Pei Yu's death came, that he realized that his so-called brother had always known what he was thinking. So what was the reason that made Pei Yu make this decision?

The answer was obvious, but what he didn't expect was that the two little ghosts he had brought over became Pei Yu's...'ghosts'.

------

It was evening. During the time when Pei Yu was "dead", no one came to his yard, including Pei Feng, which made Ji Zhe feel very strange.

But he didn't care too much about this. At least now, he had other things to do.

'Where is Pei Yu's body?'

K used the power of the system to answer this question for Ji Zhe: [In the backyard, an underground ice cellar that is not guarded by anyone]

After all, it is spring now. If the corpse is left outside, it will easily rot. Therefore, any family with a little money will dig an underground space in their yard or somewhere else and store ice to preserve corpses or other things.

This ice cellar was not difficult to find, especially with the help of K, Ji Zhe quickly found Pei Yu's coffin, but————

"This coffin is really big."

Ji Zhe couldn't help but sigh. He had seen coffins in both reality and in the dungeon, and he had seen many gorgeous and expensive ones, but this was the first time he had seen such a big one.

K: [Host, this is a double coffin, usually prepared for couples with deep feelings or twins who died at the same time.]

"Ok?"

The temperature in the ice cellar was indeed very cold. Although Ji Zhe had put on as many clothes as possible at K's reminder, he still couldn't block the chill all around.

After a while, his eyelashes were covered with a light layer of frost. Ji Zhe covered his hands with his mouth and breathed a little bit. After listening to K's words, he was puzzled and said,

"Double coffin? Why? Are there two people in it?"

K: [No, only Pei Yu. Maybe this is their custom.]

No matter what kind of coffin this is, Ji Zhe has only one purpose, which is to check whether Pei Yu is really dead;

The coffin lid was very heavy, but with K's help, Ji Zhe easily opened the lid and climbed in. He asked K to close the coffin again to avoid being discovered. However, in order to prevent himself from being trapped in the escape, Ji Zhe cleverly placed a small stone at the position where the lid and the coffin fit together.

A strange fragrance emanated from the closed coffin, like the smell of some burning wood. Ji Zhe did not think much about it, thinking that it was the incense that the people here had burned on Pei Yu's clothes;

The space in the coffin was large enough that Ji Zhe could even squat inside. He held a small flashlight in his hand, which clearly illuminated the person lying inside;

It was Pei Yu. There was no blood on his lips and his face was extremely pale. He really looked like a dead man.

Ji Zhe also placed his hand on Pei Yu's heart to feel it, but there was no beating.

"how come......"

Ji Zhe's face instantly lost all color, and the small flashlight fell on the board with a clang, but Ji Zhe did not pick it up. In fact, he never thought that Pei Yu was dead. After all, the substitute doll showed that it had been used;

But now, Pei Yu is really dead.

Ji Zhe frowned and did not notice that K had not spoken for a long time after he entered the coffin. He also did not notice that the strange fragrance in the coffin seemed to be even stronger.

------

Pei Feng suddenly wanted to go and see Pei Yu. He hadn't even gone to see Pei Yu's body since it was brought back!

As for the deal Pei Yu told him before he died, Pei Feng curled the corners of his mouth. He really didn't want to let go of that 'Xiao Zhe'.

Pei Feng soon arrived at the ice cellar where Pei Yu's body was stored, but he keenly noticed that someone had been here before;

It was too late, and he couldn't see clearly whether there were any footprints on the ground, but——

There seemed to be a familiar smell in the air.

Pei Feng's face suddenly turned a little ugly. He really didn't expect that even though Pei Yu was dead, there were still people who missed him!

So he opened the coffin and naturally saw Ji Zhe;

But in fact, it was Ji Zhe who was knocked unconscious by some strange fragrance. In Pei Feng's eyes, he was the proof of a young man's suicide for love.

"Okay, okay, you two really are...so considerate of each other."

Pei Feng looked at the weird and absurd scene in front of him with a cold face. He thought that he couldn't let him go.

So he cut off Pei Yu's face and used a secret technique to transform himself into 'Pei Yu'. He wanted to try and see if Ji Zhe, who had woken up, could discover that he was a fake 'Pei Yu'.

But what Pei Feng didn't expect was that Ji Zhe had lost his memory when he woke up. He didn't remember anything, he forgot Pei Yu and himself.

But it's not all bad news.
