Ruan Bei has a little short-sightedness, not serious, it looks more than 100 degrees, which does not affect daily life, so he does not have the habit of wearing glasses.

The continuous falling rain formed a translucent rain curtain, which interfered with Ruan Bei's vision. Looking at it from a distance, he only knew that the figure coming from the rain was the outline of a tall adult man, but he couldn't see the specific shape clearly.

When people got closer, they realized that it was a man in a suit and leather shoes, who was extremely well-dressed.

The man was about forty years old, and his posture was calm when he walked slowly. Except for his extremely pale face, it was not at all obvious that this man was walking against the heavy rain.

Ruan Bei always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't understand for a while, the man had already walked in front of him, and gave him a strange look.

Ruan Bei smiled at him reflexively, and moved his footsteps a little to the right, expressing his intention to make room for him.

A gleam of light suddenly burst out from the man's dark pupils, he looked Ruan Bei up and down, returned a slightly excited and weird smile, thanked him, and then stood on the space Ruan Bei had specially vacated for him.

Ruan Bei felt even more strange, he had stayed in the Lu family for a few years, among other things, his eyesight had improved a lot.

Only when you are far away will you feel that you are a person who is sheltering from the rain. When people walk in and look at their appearance and behavior, they should be transported by luxury cars when they enter and exit. They are people in high positions. How can they walk alone on a rainy day?

What's more, he always felt that he was missing something, not only because the person's behavior was inconsistent, but also because the whole person had a sense of incongruity that made him feel awkward.

This feeling made him a little uneasy, but he had already stood beside him, so he couldn't deliberately turn his head to look at him.

He had no choice but to pretend nothing happened, took out his phone and continued editing his book on getting rich.

He has things in his heart, and he has to observe from time to time until the rain stops and returns home. He does things a little carelessly, and the movements around him are always in his ears.

The man on the left stood still and said nothing, but Ruan Bei vaguely felt that this man seemed to be observing him, which made it even more difficult for him to concentrate.

The girl on the right turned on the voice call and was chatting enthusiastically with a friend. She lowered her voice and said that she met a good-looking little brother. The friend asked her to take a photo, but she covered her phone in a low voice.

Then she complained to her friends that the rain came too fast, even if she hid in time, her clothes were a little wet, and it was very uncomfortable to stick to her body.

In the blink of an eye, Ruan Bei finally remembered the reason for the strange feeling in his heart——

The man on the left came out of the rain, his body was obviously dry!

The rain, like passing through the projection, fell straight to the ground, leaving no trace on his body...

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Ruan Bei's mind, from the gods descending to the mortal city to cultivate immortals with supernatural powers, to his eyes having problems. If he hadn't been reborn, he would have repeatedly confirmed that this was not a dream. I wonder if I am dreaming.

There is another possibility that he doesn't even dare to think about it, bumping into ghosts or something, doesn't it mean that he will meet after walking a lot at night?It's not completely dark yet.

But the more he didn't want to think in that direction, the more his mind suddenly became uncontrollable, and he desperately tried to prove it to him.

The man's excessively pale face, his inappropriate behavior, and all kinds of weird behaviors in his brief communication...

He lived for more than 20 years in his last life. Although he was very afraid of ghosts and never dared to watch ghost movies and ghost stories, his materialistic scientific view has never been broken!

As for why materialists are afraid of ghosts, sometimes we have to admit that the emotion of fear is beyond the control of people. Fear is just fear. Others say that the fear in the heart is not so easy to eliminate.

Ruan Bei is particularly afraid of ghosts. He is not afraid of many things that others find disgusting and frightening, but he is afraid of ghosts.

When he was young and ignorant, he watched ghost movies with his brothers and sisters, and that time was very impressive. For more than three months, he didn't dare to go to the bathroom alone, and he was scared to cry in his dreams.

It's been a long time, and I don't remember the plot of the movie in my memory, but the feeling of fear at that time is hard to forget.

So Ruan Bei never participated in related activities, never read or listened to ghost stories, did not participate in activities organized by classmates such as asking for a pen fairy, and stayed far away from haunted houses when going to the playground.

Afraid of what to come.

Ruan Bei's face lost all color, and he froze on the spot, not daring to move.

As soon as he thought that there might be a ghost standing beside him, and he had brought it in himself, Ruan Bei wanted to plunge into the rain curtain and give himself a good punch.

But he dared not.

He dared not move, speak, or run away.

The base of his tongue was bitter, but Ruan Bei didn't know that he was trembling slightly, and his fingers holding the mobile phone were clasped on the fuselage, so that his knuckles turned white.

His mind was muddled. In his state, he was probably overly frightened. He tried his best not to pass out, but his fear had soared beyond his tolerance threshold, and he couldn't give a specific reaction. He was completely stunned.

The girl on the right probably thought that he had some kind of mental illness, and secretly sighed in her heart, while secretly looking at him a few more times, she squeaked towards the other side.

The man who had been secretly observing him had dark eyes, hesitant to speak.

After a while, the rain began to decrease. Seeing that it was about to stop, Ruan Bei slowed down.

It's not that he's not afraid anymore, it's that he managed to regain some thinking ability.

You can't scare yourself.

Ruan Bei comforted himself, thinking about the good, maybe he was mentally ill, or suffering from eye disease?

But I'm still so scared...

He didn't dare to look to the side, but he could still feel the sight from the left side. Before, this kind of secret observation only made him feel a little uncomfortable, but now he felt that there was a coldness in the eyes, like a sharp thin blade on his body. After layering, the skin began to hurt.

"It's okay, I didn't do anything too much, I... I should be like everyone else, pretending to know nothing, yes, that's it..."

"You can't run, you can't act strange, you can't follow the crowd, you can't provoke him..."

The rain is getting weaker and weaker, and now there is only a drizzle left. There are already one or two rain shelters who can't wait, wearing coats or carrying bags, and ran directly to the place where they can take a car.

Ruan Bei managed to control himself not to run out directly. The girl next to him was already packing her mobile phone in her bag. When he planned to leave, he would follow the trend, so that it would not look abrupt at all.

At this moment, the store door behind him suddenly opened, and the customers inside came out.

They took shelter from the rain in a clothing store. To be precise, most of the street was selling clothes. The customers there had been buying clothes before. When it rained suddenly, they simply stayed a little longer to avoid the rain.

But those of them who came after were soaked in rain and moisture, so it was difficult to squeeze into other people's stores, so they took shelter from the rain outside.

What came out were three young girls walking together. They only had one umbrella, and the heavy rain couldn't stop it, but a squeeze in this kind of light rain was enough.

The three girls got under the umbrella side by side, and went straight through the largest gap between the people sheltering from the rain. The satchel in the hand of the girl on the far right brushed Ruan Bei's arm, and the cold and hard metal chain made a slight collision sound.

"It's too cold, why did it suddenly drop so much..."

The girl walking in the middle holding an umbrella complained softly, and the girl who just passed by Ruan Bei nodded in agreement, and the three of them gradually walked away.

Ruan Bei: "..."

Ruan Bei almost fainted!

He could no longer lie to himself that he was wrong, and he couldn't wait to join the others, so he ran home.

He ran so fast that he didn't dare to turn his head back. He ran to the gate of his own community in one breath, and saw the familiar dilapidated iron gate from a distance, and the small window of the guard's room revealed a dim light.

The person sitting in the guard room is not a serious security officer, but an old man in his 60s who lives in this old family courtyard. His wife and children died early, and he works as a guard. The family explained the notice from the neighborhood committee, and later added a job to help collect the courier.

It is not a problem for him to receive some meager salary every month to support himself.

The uncle has lived here for half of his life, and he has grown up watching Ruan Bei. When he heard the movement, he poked his head and looked, and was immediately amused: "Xiao Bei, what are you running? Is there a ghost behind?"

Ruan Bei couldn't hear the word right now, and hurriedly waved his hands at the uncle, but seeing a familiar person dispelled a little bit of fear in his heart.

He walked over to the guard room and stood by the window, only half a wall and a table away from the uncle, and his sense of security increased a little.

"Why is your face so pale? Is it because you are still sick? Go back and ask your father to make you some nourishing soup. Don't be picky about food. You are young and you are not in good health..."

The uncle babbled about Ruan Bei, and dug out a few more apples, put them in a bag and gave them to Ruan Bei.

Ruan Bei had the nerve to ask for it, so he rejected it a few times with the uncle, but he couldn't insist, so he had to accept it, thinking that the uncle loved his father's pickled cucumbers, so he sent two cans back.

With such an interruption, most of the fear in my heart dissipated, but when he was about to go back, Ruan Bei stopped again.

The community is old and the public facilities can't keep up. It's very dark inside, and there are swaying tree shadows. It's really scary.

Fear of ghosts and fear of the dark are easily linked, especially for someone like Ruan Bei who has just been frightened and hasn't recovered from it.

He struggled for a moment, and finally he was not ashamed to ask the uncle to send him back, so he mustered up the courage to move forward.

Before leaving, he accidentally took a look outside the community.

The well-dressed man in a suit stood quietly not far away, watching him silently.

Ruan Bei: "...!!!"
