Tang Ning curled up on the bed. His entire body emitted the same scent as Mo Yunchu's. Mo Yunchu lifted the blanket and leaned over to give him a goodnight kiss. It was gentle and not aggressive. It was the best interpretation of Tang Ning's original idea of a goodnight kiss.
However, Tang Ning's eyes were half-open. his misty eyes were blank and dull. his lips were slightly open, as if he had temporarily lost his ability to receive information from the outside world.
It wasn't until Mo Yunchu turned off the light beside his bed and pulled him into his arms that Tang Ning blinked slowly. he pulled his shoulders back and tried to escape Mo Yunchu's embrace.
"What's wrong?" Mo Yunchu firmly restrained Tang Ning as he gently asked.
he bit his lower lip with his snow-white teeth and covered his face with his flushed fingers. he could not help but vent his grievances."... You bullied me."
A muffled laugh came from the darkness." Is this bullying?"
Tang Ning nodded vigorously. his soft whimpers were heard. he nodded too much and his soft hair brushed against Mo Yunchu's chin. Mo Yunchu touched his head and his tone became gentle," I'm sorry."
"I won't bully you like this next time. Ning, don't cry, okay?"
Such a sincere and gentle tone, as if from the heart of the heart out of the heart, exudes an unparalleled, bewitching appeal.
Tang Ning immediately believed Mo Yunchu.
Mo Yunchu was so good and gentle.
He wiped the tears on his face with his hands and tried his best to stop his body from trembling. Then, he sniffed and carefully leaned his face against Mo Yunchu's chest.
"...... Good night."
Mo Yunchu hugged Tang Ning," Good night."
Tang Ning added softly," If you want to wake up tonight, remember to wake me up. Don't leave me alone, okay?"
"Okay."
After receiving Mo Yunchu's promise, Tang Ning was relieved. He had spent a lot of energy throughout the day and soon fell asleep. It was as if he had a nightmare. In his dream, a monster was circling him tightly. It was dark all around him, so he couldn't see what the monster looked like. Perhaps it was a python. He heard that pythons also wrapped their prey around them bit by bit.
Until they hang.
Tang Ning suddenly opened his eyes and saw Mo Yunchu's hand on his waist.
"You're awake?" Mo Yunchu planted a good morning kiss on Tang Ning's forehead. The kiss was tender and tender," Good morning."
Before Tang Ning could wake up, he heard anothis piece of news-
[Lu Yingxing is dead.]
the system said.
What's that?
Tang Ning began to wonder if he was dreaming.
Lu Yingxing was dead?
He was fine when he left yesterday. He still owed Lu Yingxing two meals. He had not asked Lu Yingxing what was wrong with the surveillance video...
" If you're sleepy, you can sleep for a while longer. I have to go to work, so I can't accompany Xiaoning anymore." Mo Yunchu reluctantly buried his straight nose into Tang Ning's neck as he took a deep breath. his tone was filled with nostalgia," It smells good."
A numbing itch pulled Tang Ning's thoughts back to reality. He stared blankly as Mo Yunchu left the room. After a few seconds, he asked,"
[What happened?]
The system did not reveal any more information.
When Tang Ning arrived at the hospital, he saw the Lu family. One of them was Lu Yingxing's elder brother, Lu Junchi. Lu Junchi and Lu Yingxing looked similar, but their temperament was much more stable. It was easy to tell the difference between the two brothers.
Seeing Tang Ning arrive, Lu Junchi stepped forward and whispered," Long time no see."
Tang Ning didn't know how to address him, so he could only nod slightly. Lu Junchi seemed to know about Tang Ning's relationship with Lu Yingxing. He told Tang Ning that Lu Yingxing's cause of death was sudden death, and asked Tang Ning to pay attention to his health," Many of you guys in this business are day and night reversed. Because you're young, you don't care about your health. Yingxing's health has always been good, but he also encountered this kind of situation."
Lu Junchi pinched the bridge of his nose as he spoke. His eyes were bloodshot.
He looks like he's been up all night.
"Can I see Lu Yingxing again?" Tang Ning asked.
Lu Junchi nodded.
Only this time it was at the morgue.
Lu Junchi wanted to accompany Tang Ning, but after taking a few steps, he almost staggered. Tang Ning quickly told Lu Junchi to rest. He wanted to go alone so he could retrieve Lu Yingxing's phone.
What did the surveillance cameras capture last night? Was Lu Yingxing's death related to the surveillance cameras? These were all questions that troubled Tang Ning. Dead people couldn't speak, so the answer could only be found on the phone.
The morgue of this hospital is located on the ground floor of the basement, and there is a special elevator to reach it.
When the elevator door opened, the lights were not turned on outside. It was pitch black, and an indescribable cold feeling assaulted him, like the coolness from well water in summer.
As he arrived, the lights in the corridor lit up one by one. Tang Ning's shadow was reflected on the pale walls.
Although Tang Ning had grown bolder, he still felt a little scared in this environment. he quickened his pace and walked through the corridor into the morgue. The moment he entered, he smelled the faint stench of corpses that even disinfectant couldn't hide.
In order to prevent the corpse from decomposing, the temperature in the morgue was very low. The lights were not as bright as Tang Ning had imagined. Instead, they were warm.
Normally, warm light would make people feel warm, but because the temperature here was too low, the warm lights seemed to seep out blood.
The morgue was filled with rows of large freezers. Each freezer had a serial number attached to it. Inside, people were sleeping. Tang Ning walked very quietly. In such a quiet environment, he didn't dare to make any noise as he was afraid of disturbing the rest of the dead.
Tang Ning took a while to find Lu Yingxing's morgue. He kept telling himself that he was just a person from the game, just like an NPC. Then, he mustered the courage to open the cabinet door. Opening the freezer door was like opening a drawer, except that it contained a body bag.
Tang Ning slowly unzipped the body bag. The soft sound of the zipper was especially clear in the silent morgue. A cold wind blew from behind her. Tang Ning carefully turned around and saw nothing behind her. He must have been too nervous.
Tang Ning turned around. The zipper had already been pulled up to Lu Yingxing's neck. Lu Yingxing's pale face appeared in front of her. Othis than his pale face, he looked like he was asleep.
Tang Ning wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but Lu Yingxing's lips seemed to curve slightly.
Tang Ning didn't dare to take a closer look. He held his breath as he reached out to touch Lu Yingxing's shirt pocket. Lu Yingxing's body was stiff, and he could feel the difference between his and a living person through the fabric. Tang Ning tried hard to ignore this feeling. He searched through both pockets, but they were empty. So, Tang Ning leaned forward a little and reached into his pants pocket.
The lights suddenly flickered.
Tang Ning's hand froze in mid-air as he once again felt a faint wind behind him. The surroundings were unusually quiet. Tang Ning remained motionless as he heard his own breathing," Hu... Whoosh... Whoosh... Hu..."
In a daze, someone seemed to be breathing on his neck. Tang Ning was shocked by this thought. Then, he refuted this conjecture. Dead people couldn't breathe, so he could see that living people were here. The most reasonable explanation was that he was suffering from a nervous breakdown. Once he exited the game, he would have to go to the hospital for a check-up.
don't scare yourself.
After comforting herself, Tang Ning went back to Lu Yingxing's pocket and quickly found his phone.
Tang Ning happily took out his phone and was about to zip the body bag back up. When the zipper reached Lu Yingxing's neck, Tang Ning suddenly realized...
Lu Yingxing's lips, which were supposed to be tightly shut, opened slightly at this moment and kept blowing at him.
The lights flashed twice and went out instantly. The entire morgue fell into darkness. Tang Ning felt a chill run down his spine as a chill seeped into his bones. his legs went limp and he almost collapsed to the ground.
A rustling sound could be heard in the darkness as if something had crawled out of the body bag. Tang Ning did not dare to turn on his flashlight to shine light on the object. he quickly turned around and ran out.
A cold wind blew at the back of his neck, as if something had followed behind him.
Tang Ning's scalp tingled. he wanted to run faster, but the more nervous he was, the more likely he was to make mistakes. In his panic, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
This body was too fragile; even a slight bump would cause extreme pain. Tang Ning struggled to get up. He opened his phone and saw the door in front of him under the dim light of the screen. He hoped that at this moment, Tang Ning would burst out with strength. He rushed to the door and grabbed the handle to open it, but something was stuck at the foot of the door, so he couldn't open it.
As the faint screen light moved downwards, Tang Ning opened his eyes wide to see what it was.
It was a rag doll lying on the ground. It had sparse hair, eyes made of black buttons, and a broken body covered in dirt. The lower half of its legless body exposed the white cotton wool inside. A few maggots could be vaguely seen crawling out of the hole.
Tang Ning's head buzzed as he subconsciously took a step back. A cool breath came from his neck. Something was standing on top of him and blowing at him.
"Ahhh
Tang Ning hugged his head and squatted down. He trembled as he hid in a corner. His back was pressed against the wall as he closed his eyes.
At this moment, Mo Yunchu was the only one he could think of.
He needed Mo Yunchu.
He needed Mo Yunchu to hug him now and tell him,"It's okay, don't be afraid, Xiao Ning." He needed to absorb Mo Yunchu's body temperature.
He seemed to have really turned into a dodder flower and clung to Mo Yunchu. Without Mo Yunchu, he would have died.
At this moment, footsteps approached as a cold hand touched him. Tang Ning buried his head in his knees and screamed frantically. A blinding light shone through the darkness of his knees and into his eyes. A voice could be heard amidst the overwhelming light. Although this hoarse voice was partially obscured by Tang Ning's screams, words such as "hey" and "stop screaming" could still be heard intermittently.
Tang Ning covered his ears and raised his head, trembling. he saw a sallow middle-aged man standing in front of her.
"Young man, don't make such a fuss here." The lights of the morgue lit up again. The middle-aged man said expressionlessly.
After saying that, he ignored Tang Ning and walked towards the freezer. Tang Ning looked at the foot of the door with a trembling expression, but he didn't see the nightmarish doll. He turned around and looked at the freezer. One of the cabinets was open, and Lu Yingxing's body bag was placed on it. Lu Yingxing's body was still sitting there, but the zipper wasn't fully closed, and it was resting on his neck.
The warm yellow light shone on Lu Yingxing's pale face, and there was an indescribable strangeness.
The middle-aged man walked over to Lu Yingxing's body bag and zipped it up. Then, he did something that shocked Tang Ning...
He picked up the stiff corpse and placed it on the cart.
"...... Who are you?" Tang Ning asked in a trembling voice.
The middle-aged man gave Tang Ning a cold look,"I'm a funeral home worker."
Under the light, the shadow of a middle-aged man was projected onto the white tiles.
Tang Ning suddenly gained strength. He leaned against the wall and stood up,"Hello, I, I... What's your name?"
"Old Liu."
Tang Ning curled up on the bed. His entire body emitted the same scent as Mo Yunchu's. Mo Yunchu lifted the blanket and leaned over to give him a goodnight kiss. It was gentle and not aggressive. It was the best interpretation of Tang Ning's original idea of a goodnight kiss.
