Chapter 6: Who's Lying?
It was already noon when I woke up. I scratched my head and was not very clear yet. Why did I go home to sleep in a daze? Was I so sleepy at that time?
After getting out of bed and washing up, my phone suddenly rang.
Yes, the message sent by Yi.
It's my good friend from the same village.
This message responded to the question I asked him before.
"Liu Lei? Liu Superstitious? Isn't he dead? Don't you know?"
When I saw this message, my head suddenly exploded and I quickly called him and asked, "Is Liu Lei dead? Don't lie to me, I went to have dinner with him yesterday."
Ah Yi said, "Shaofan, you can't have woken up, right? Liu Lei died a month ago. How could he have had a meal with you?"
"You must be lying to me, right?" I was confused. Ah Yi didn't speak like a lie, and there was no need for him to lie to me, but if Liu Lei died a month ago, who was the person who had dinner with me yesterday?
"I really didn't lie to you. If you don't believe it, you can go to his hometown to see it. He died in a car accident outside a month ago. We all know about this, and I thought you knew it too."
I was stunned and couldn't speak for a long time.
"Hey, hey, Shaofan? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," I shivered for a moment and said in a panic: "I won't tell you now, I have to be busy with something."
After hanging up the phone, I looked up and suddenly saw a figure behind me from the mirror.
The bathroom mirror is facing the window, and the figure is standing next to the window.
I turned around so scared that I had no more than nothing.
Looking in the mirror again, there was nothing.
Could it be that I was dazzled?
I must be so nervous that I was so confused. After all, Liu Lei was dead, which is very exciting news for me.
He is dead, is it his ghost who eats with me?
When I think of this, I feel my scalp numb.
I left home in panic and ran to the alley where we had dinner yesterday.
As long as you find that hotel, everything will be explained clearly.
However, I ran around the alley for several laps but couldn't find the hotel.
Now I felt even more panicked. Although there was a hot sun hanging above my head, I still felt a chill behind me.
This alley looks like a maze to me. My brain was in chaos at that time and I didn’t know wherever I went.
Just when I was anxious, I suddenly saw a familiar figure.
Bai Yiyi.
Why is she here?
Bai Yiyi also saw me.
She ran over quickly and smiled, "Brother Shaofan, why are you here?"
I made up a reason casually: "When you come here to find a friend, why are you here too?"
Bai Yiyi waved the bag in her hand and said, "I'll come here to buy something."
"Oh, okay, by the way, Yiyi, did you know there is a restaurant here?"
"I don't know, I'm not very familiar with this place. I just came back from another place and stayed with my parents. I rarely go home."
"Okay" I lowered my shoulders in disappointment.
"What are you looking for a restaurant? Have you not eaten yet? If you haven't eaten, I'll treat you." Maybe I think this is a bit wrong, she added: "Don't think too much, I just want to thank you for your care for me last night."
I smiled and said, "No need to thank me, it's not a big deal. I have something to do, so let's go first."
"Wait a minute, Brother Shaofan, can I add your WeChat?"
"Okay" I left her contact information and then went to the hospital.
When I passed by the overpass, I walked with my head down and was walking in a hurry, and accidentally bumped into someone.
This man has a big belly, fat head and big ears.
It really hit me very hard.
Before I could apologize, he spoke first, "What's wrong with my little brother? I'm absent-minded and don't look at the road when I walk."
"Sorry, brother, I'm in a hurry."
"It's okay, it's okay." He waved his hand and didn't care.
As I was about to leave, he suddenly grabbed my hand and said, "Brother, you are not in good condition. Listen to my advice and pay more attention to the situation around you, especially at home. You can enter your house casually, which is not good for you."
I was confused about what he said and didn't quite understand what it meant.
"Brother, can you explain it clearly?"
"It's okay, I just want to tell you that it's not safe to take everyone to your house."
"Okay, I get it, thank you."
What a weird guy.
I turned around and left in a hurry.
After walking a few steps, I looked back.
The fat man disappeared.
I am quite fat. I didn’t expect that I could walk so fast, and there was no one in the blink of an eye.
After rushing to the hospital, I went to the doctor to ask about my mother's condition.
The doctor said that the condition has temporarily stabilized, but it is a bit serious. No one knows whether there will be any changes. They can only do their best.
I nodded and thanked me, and said sincerely: "I will find a way to deal with money. You must save my mother."
"Don't worry, don't be too stressed." The doctor patted my shoulder, turned around and left.
Today, the boss didn't send a message to inform me when the second round of the game would continue. I spent a day in the hospital. In the evening, I actually saw Liu Lei at the entrance of the hospital.
He walked towards me from a distance, scaring me very much.
Because I know he is a ghost now, what good things can a ghost come to me?
I originally wanted to run away, but suddenly I saw him hit me, and the man apologized very enthusiastically.
No, can ghosts be hit by someone?
Liu Lei quickly came to me and asked me: "How are you? Did you do that last night?"
When I mentioned this, I was angry and said unhappy: "Why did you leave early last night? I didn't know any of them, so I threw me there?"
Liu Lei looked embarrassed: "I suddenly had something urgent to leave."
I rolled my eyes, remembered Ayi's words, and subconsciously looked up to the ground.
Ghosts have no shadow, but Liu Lei has it.
Isn't he a ghost?
I was stunned for a moment, why did Ah Yi lie to me?
Liu Lei looked at me in a daze and asked me what was wrong.
I told him Ayi's words, but unexpectedly, after hearing this, Liu Lei's face changed drastically and asked me in horror: "What did you say? Ayi told you that I am a ghost?"
"Why is that right?"
"Damn, Shaofan, don't lie to me. Ah Yi died a month ago. How could he chat with you?"
Boom-
Liu Lei's words were like five thunder thunder, slashing me hard.
"Do you think I look like a ghost?" Liu Lei was anxious: "Does the ghost have any shadow? Will the ghost be hit by someone?"
I stuttered, "Then...then, yes him?"
"Ah Yi died a month ago. Aren't you from the same village? How could you not know?"
My mother was admitted to the hospital a month ago and had basically no contact with the village. They would not come to contact her on their own initiative, just because they were afraid that I would borrow money from them.
After all, my family is not in good condition, and the money I used when my father left was spent on my studies, and there was not much left at all.
But, is Ah Yi really dead?
