nightmare space

It was a serious car rear-end accident, which happened on a suburban road near the airport.

Qi Yue closed his eyes and took a nap in one of the taxis at that time.When the accident happened, he had no time to react. Although the airbag popped out in time, his body was not fatally injured, but his head was hit violently, which made him unconscious.

Perhaps Nightmare Dimensions chose such an unfortunate moment to pull his mental body into the game, so something went wrong with the damaged mental body, and he lost all his memories.

And now that he has inexplicably recovered his memory—perhaps because of his body's self-healing function, he is about to wake up in reality—naturally, he is no different from ordinary nightmare space players.

Even better, he can choose whether to leave the nightmare zone or not.

Listening to the clear voice of the person in front of him, Xu You looked from top to bottom, passing over Qi Yue's dark eyes, white lips, slightly wrinkled collar, and hands hanging on both sides... I don't know if it is His illusion was that the fingertips were slightly transparent.

It was clearly noon, but the light in the living room seemed to be even dimmer.

"...Probably that's it." Qi Yue moved his fingers as if sensing Xu You's gaze, wanting to end the topic.

Xu You grabbed his hand subconsciously, but he didn't withdraw his hand after he realized what he was doing. He just affirmed, "Is there anything else you haven't said?"

The skin of the tentacles is no longer as cold as before, but has the unique warmth of the human body, which makes Xu You feel that Qi Yue is a little more human.He stared straight into those eyes, as if in this way he could peer into the inner thoughts of the person in front of him.

"..." Qi Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly, his expression showing a bit of hesitation.Seeing Xu You staring at him without blinking, he finally said, "I may... disappear before leaving the nightmare space."

"What?!" Xu You's voice became louder unconsciously, with obvious consternation in it.

Qi Yue raised the other hand that was not caught by Xu You, and spread his five fingers slightly in Xu You's direction: "This is the proof."

Not an illusion.

Xu You's gaze landed on his fingertips, where they became vaguely transparent - he suddenly remembered the "Spirited Away" he had seen before. Qian Xun had just seen the far away through the palm of his hand in that world. She is also in a state of disappearing...

He blinked and pulled back his wandering thoughts: "Why...disappeared?"

"I used the ability a few times in this house, and I had a vague feeling at that time." Qi Yue wrote lightly.

Xu You let go of Qi Yue's hand.

"No," he heard his own voice, "you won't disappear."

"I promise."

--------------------------

The conversation between Qi Yue and Xu You at the gate was not heard by others.

Ke Junli and Li Shuuta cleared the table after eating, considering the two people who were talking at the gate, they didn't bother them with interest, but spread the mirror paper on the table to trace the pattern of the exorcism array.The pens and papers are old items with a full sense of age that I found out through rummaging through boxes and cabinets.

After two days and two nights, as long as they survived the third day, they would be able to complete their mission and leave here.

But... did things really go so smoothly?

Thinking of the tragic death of the player, everyone's heart was covered with a haze.

Xu You and Qi Yue returned to the kitchen after their conversation. Seeing the actions of the two, they didn't join them—the pattern was almost finished.

"Okay." The quill dipped in ink drew the last stroke on the yellowed paper, Li Shuotu inserted the pen back into the ink bottle, straightened up and hammered his sore waist.

Ke Junli compared the mirror paper and confirmed that the pattern was correct.

So now the remaining question is whether this exorcism array is useful or not.

It was about afternoon at this time, and the hands of the old clock in the house stayed at ten past three, motionless.

By midnight tonight, everyone will be able to leave here.

Perhaps because of the completion of the two tasks of "Find the Possessed Person" and "Destroy the Ghost", all the troublesome ghosts in this house disappeared, and no one could hear any strange noises, and it was quiet.

But Xu You, who was almost hit by the tip of a kitchen knife in the kitchen, knew that "they" did not disappear, but hibernated, as if waiting for a certain opportunity.

"Tell me, how can we verify whether this exorcism array is effective." Xu You turned his head to look at Qi Yue beside him, who was studying the paper spread on the coffee table with his head down.

Qi Yue stretched out his hand, stroking the rough paper with his fingertips along the pattern, and the half-open cupboard door in the kitchen appeared in his mind.

"I'll try it," he replied.

Hearing this, Li Shuotu and Ke Junli who were surrounded by the tea table raised their heads. They were a little curious and wanted to know what method Qi Yue would use to prove it.

Everyone watched anxiously as Qi Yue picked up the pattern with an indifferent expression, went to the kitchen, faced the cupboard door, and then... pasted the talisman on it.

His slender fingers left the talisman paper, and the page carrying the weight of the ink fell lightly to the ground.

"..." Qi Yue's expression remained calm, he said, "This is useless."

EXM? ? ?

Although this is the nightmare space, isn't the way you verify the talisman paper too casual? ? ?

Is there really a ghost in this cupboard? ? ?

Maybe it was Xu You's scorching eyes that almost pierced Qi Yue, he coughed lightly, and explained: "There is a ghost in the cupboard, but the exorcism array doesn't respond to it."

Oh...that's right...but you're doing it the right way? ? ?

"I had a hunch that if I opened the cupboard door, something unexpected might happen."

intuition?

Everyone was slightly stunned, but they didn't ask any more questions.

Xu You walked into the kitchen, bent down and picked up the talisman paper on the ground, folded it and put it in his pocket.

Maybe it's just not the right time.

He thought so.

—and hit the ground by mistake, which saved his life.

------------------------------

Waiting is the hardest part, especially when you don't know what's going to happen next.

The four of them sat silently on the sofa in the living room, not in the mood to talk, and each was thinking about something.

Xu You leaned on the back of the sofa, squinting at the chandelier covered with cobwebs on the ceiling, his thoughts wandering.

He thought of the first time he went to the nightmare space and had close contact with dead people; every time he saw Qi Yue, he felt a little unspeakable peace of mind; the self who was burned to death by the incinerator and resurrected, is he still the original self... …

Gradually, his breathing became smooth and long, and he leaned slightly, leaning against Qi Yue who was beside him.

A cold fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose, making him sleep more peacefully.

Qi Yue let Xu You lean on him, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart, which didn't bother him.
