“A specter… among us?”

The crowd exchanged glances, secretly thinking, 'Has this kid Li Ge gone mad with fear?'

We're all living people; how could any of us be a specter?

If anyone were likely to be a specter, it would be that Peace Dove, always so secretive. But if he really were a specter, how could he lead us out of the mist?

It doesn't make any sense.

“Li Ge, I know you like detective novels, but everything requires evidence. Spouting nonsense like this will only increase everyone's panic.”

Qiao Kang spoke up at this moment, thoughtfully considering everyone's feelings.

Lin Jue ignored him and turned his gaze to Peace Dove: “Brother, could you move Jiajia's body? Let me reconstruct what happened.”

Reconstruct what happened?

Peace Dove was stunned and retorted, “Why don't you move it yourself?”

“I'm scared.” Lin Jue replied naturally.

His current role was Li Ge, who, although highly logical and skilled in deduction, shouldn't be brave enough to directly move a corpse.

“…” Peace Dove didn't know how to respond. Why didn't this kid say he was scared when he touched the body earlier?

He followed Lin Jue's instructions and dragged Jiajia's body to the living room. Only then did Lin Jue continue, “Next, I'll play Jiajia. Qiao Kang, you sit back in the chair. Everyone else, move back outside the corridor.”

The others didn't understand what he was doing, but they did as he said, all retreating outside the corridor, while Qiao Kang sat back in the chair.

Lin Jue closed the bathroom door, plunging the entire bathroom into darkness, like the deepest abyss.

“At the time, Jiajia came out of the living room to use the bathroom, while Qiao Kang waited outside the corridor.”

“And when Jiajia finished using the bathroom, she went to the sink, turned on the tap, and prepared to wash off her makeup.”

As Lin Jue spoke loudly, he walked to the sink and turned on the faucet.

The sound of rushing water carried through the door to the corridor. Qiao Kang nodded: “I did hear the sound of the faucet at the time.”

“Then, as she bent down to wash her face…” Lin Jue bent down, cupping the flowing water in his hands and splashing it on his face.

He looked up at himself in the mirror. In the darkness of the bathroom, something seemed to be watching him.

“She felt a sudden chill in her heart, as if something was watching her.”

“She thought of the story Yao Yao told. If you suddenly have this feeling, it means something is near you.”

“She wanted to call for Qiao Kang, but her voice was hoarse with fear, only a rustling sound coming from her throat. Qiao Kang couldn't hear her through the bathroom door.”

Hearing this, the people outside the corridor looked at Qiao Kang, who shook his head: “I didn't hear any sound. I don't know if Jiajia called out or not.”

“Li Ge, what happened next?” Chen Fugui couldn't help but ask.

“Then, the cramped, dark bathroom made her feel utterly unsafe. She wanted to escape.” Lin Jue walked to the bathroom door, placing his hand on the doorknob.

“But she wasn't sure where the thing watching her was, so she cautiously opened the bathroom door, wanting to confirm if it was safe outside.”

He opened the bathroom door and said to Peace Dove, “Brother, when I come out, stand next to Qiao Kang.”

Peace Dove nodded blankly.

Lin Jue's eyes narrowed, cautiously and vigilantly looking out at the corridor through the crack in the door. He seemed to have really returned to the moment it happened, Jiajia hiding behind the bathroom door, observing the outside.

Everyone was made nervous by him, feeling as if there really was something more in the corridor.

“After confirming that only Qiao Kang was sitting outside, Jiajia finally felt a little relieved. She carefully opened the bathroom door and walked out.”

Lin Jue fully opened the bathroom door and walked out. At the same time, Peace Dove also stood next to Qiao Kang.

At that moment, Lin Jue's eyes widened suddenly, as if he had really seen something terrifying, his breathing becoming rapid: “That chilling feeling is back!”

“She saw it!”

“There's a dark shadow! Standing next to Qiao Kang, watching her!”

Lin Jue's mouth was wide open, his face twisted, exactly like Jiajia's expression at the time of her death.

Then everyone saw him fall straight backward.

Of course, for safety, Lin Jue sat down on the ground with his buttocks first, then his upper body lay down. The posture of falling was exactly the same as Jiajia's death posture.

He even hammered the floor with his elbow to create the “thud” sound.

At that moment, everyone vaguely felt that Jiajia's body had once again appeared in that place.

This guy named Li Ge…

His acting is terrifying! He completely recreated the death of the corpse.

Everyone closed their mouths, looking in shock at Lin Jue lying on the ground.

The newest novels are first published on [website name]!

A minute later, Lin Jue sat up: “This is what Jiajia experienced before her death. The ghost story Yao Yao told happened to her.”

【Plot Six: You have completely recreated the experience of the deceased before death. Inside the villa, something seems to be about to awaken. The lurking liar has surfaced. Can you survive from his hands…】

“Alright.” Lin Jue clapped his hands, stood up, and looked at the shocked crowd: “Do you have any questions?”

Hearing this, Chen Fugui and the others shook their heads like rattles, more terrified by Lin Jue's deduction and performance than Jiajia's death.

How could a recent college graduate do this? Even if he likes reading detective novels, he couldn't deduce and recreate things so completely.

Although they didn't know what Jiajia had experienced, Lin Jue's performance just now had roughly convinced them that Jiajia's experience before her death was mostly as “Li Ge” said.

“I have a question.” Qiao Kang raised his hand, his expression suggesting he was still somewhat unconvinced: “You said Jiajia saw a dark shadow next to me, but why didn't I see it at the time?”

“How long are you going to keep pretending?”

Lin Jue's next sentence made his expression change slightly.

The corners of his mouth stretched into a stiff smile: “What do you mean? What am I pretending?”

Lin Jue ignored him and said to himself, “Among us, many people are lying.”

“Lies can be big or small. Small lies are just to create a persona, like the dead Jiajia. She was originally a borderline streamer, but after hearing that Qiao Kang had a villa, she mistakenly thought Qiao Kang was a rich second-generation.”

“So, she said she was a model in the car to conceal her profession and win Qiao Kang's favor, hoping to further the relationship in these few days and fulfill her dream of marrying into a wealthy family.”

“And Chen Fugui, you two, no, accurately speaking, you are lovers.”

“I don't know which of you is the mistress who interfered in someone else's relationship. The reason you two came out to explore spirits this time is to enjoy the pleasure of adultery, and since no one here knows you, you can openly be intimate together.”

Lin Jue's words left Chen Fugui and Yao Yao speechless, because that was indeed the case. They participated in the spirit exploration to openly have an affair while seeking excitement.

“Your lies are just to cover up your moral dark side.”

Lin Jue paused, his gaze once again landing on Qiao Kang.

“But some lies are meant to make us become nourishment.”
