The night wind blew, and under the dim light, it was like smoke and fog.
There was a cordon at the entrance of Pinglin Street.
Jiang Chen looked into the street. It was pitch-black. There wasn't a single light on the street, not even a street lamp.
This was a good thing for Jiang Chen. If the entire street was bustling, it would be more troublesome for him to observe and deal with it.
Jiang Chen's eyes shone with a faint crystal light. He could see the entire street clearly. There were still traces of the fire on both sides of the street.
It looked a little desolate.
"What happened? Heavy Yin Qi, but no Ghost Qi?"
Jiang Chen frowned. It seemed like this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed.
Just like the Haunted House, he could tell that there was something strange inside at a glance.
Without thinking much, he took a big step forward and disappeared from where he was. He had already walked into the street.
The street was empty, dark, and quiet. Because of the heavy Yin Qi, it gave people a chilly feeling and made their hair stand on end.
Jiang Chen's footsteps were soundless and he walked very quickly. After a while, he stopped.
This street was actually a dead end!？
"Is there a problem?" Jiang Chen immediately sensed that something was amiss.
Although he had never been here before, he could tell that this street was not a dead end that had been sealed off.
This was obviously unreasonable.
Even if it was the officials who sealed the street, it would not make sense.
This was because this wall and the buildings on both sides had a deep sense of age. The wall was gray and black, as if it had been built decades ago.
Jiang Chen touched the wall and some lime fell.
He planned to climb over the wall to see what was going on behind him. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him. Someone was calling his name.
"Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen turned around and saw a 1.8-meter tall, muscular young man walking over quickly.
"Xu Yun." Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed when he recognized the man.
This was his university roommate, a native of Dachang City. They had a very good relationship.
Some time ago, the two of them had been playing games together.
But now, in his eyes, Xu Yun had no Qi, no Yin Qi, no Ghost Qi.
Similarly, there was no aura of a living person.
He had never seen such a situation before.
"Jiang Chen, why are you here? This place is a little strange.”
Xu Yun walked over and said to Jiang Chen. His expression was as calm as an ordinary person.
"I had some work to do. I just came here and saw the crowd, so I came to take a look curiously.”
"What are you doing here?" Jiang Chen's expression was the same.”
"I live here and happened to see you. There have been more and more strange things recently. It's best to stay away from such a place.”
Xu Yun said and pulled Jiang Chen away.
"I'm just curious. Didn't you not believe in these things in the past? Now you believe in this."
Jiang Chen chatted with Xu Yun as usual.
"Sigh, it's better to believe in this kind of thing.”Xu Yun sighed.
"You suddenly changed your mind. Could it be that you recently…" Jiang Chen continued, but his voice stopped abruptly.
Xu Yun, who was beside him, had disappeared without him knowing.
He was just outside the street.
Jiang Chen was horrified as he looked at the quiet, desolate, and depressing streets.
He quickly left his original spot and felt that nothing was wrong. He let out a long breath.
"Is it a ghost or something?"
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at the dark street in the distance. He couldn't help but think.
Everything that had happened just now was filled with mystery and strangeness.
On the street without any ghostly aura, the walls of the alleys suddenly appeared. Xu Yun, who was not breathing at all, was illusory but real.
And just as he walked out of the street, Xu Yun suddenly disappeared.
One had to know that his five senses were extremely sharp, but he did not see clearly how Xu Yun disappeared.
"It just happened to disappear the moment I walked out of the street. It's obviously related to this street.”
Jiang Chen thought back and was certain that this street wasn't that simple.
He took out his phone, found Xu Yun's number, and dialed it.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off. Please try again later."
Jiang Chen's heart sank. He dialed another number. It was the Dark Net's reception hot line.
"Hello." A sweet female voice came from the other end.
" Help me check if there's a person named Xu Yun, a local of Dachang City, 24 years old this year, among the 13 missing people who died in the fire at Ziyun Avenue's Pinglin Street incident in Nancheng District."”
Jiang Chen said straightforwardly.
This was a service provided by the dark net. You could contact them directly for quest-related matters and receive them 24 hours a day.
"Please wait a moment. I'll retrieve the information for you. Please wait a moment.”The other party immediately replied.
"Yes."
About three minutes later, a female voice sounded on the other end of the phone."Hello, we just found out that there was a man named Xu Yun in the fire.”
"Alright." Jiang Chen's heart sank.
"If you need it, I can send you the relevant information. Is there anything else I can help you with?”
"If you have any discoveries regarding this matter, you can also tell me. I will submit it for you. If the information is useful, I will give you a reward.”
The other party continued.
"I have Yin Yang Eyes and can see ghost energy, but I don't see any ghost energy in the street.”
"After I walked in, I saw a wall that sealed the road. This wall doesn't look like a modern wall. Just as I was about to cross the wall, a friend of mine called my name.”
"He didn't have any ghostly qi or the aura of a living person. He was just like an ordinary person. He told me to leave this place, and the moment I walked out of the street, he disappeared.”
Jiang Chen didn't hide anything and told them what had happened.
Then, he said,"If you know what's going on, please send me a message. Is that okay?"”
"Alright, I'll give you a reply when there's a result.”
"Alright."
Jiang Chen hung up the phone to see if the officials knew what was going on.
This matter was filled with evil.
At the same time, Jiang Chen pondered Xu Yun's words.
First, he said that there were ghosts here, then he said that there were more and more strange things and that he should stay away.
In the end, he sighed and said that it was better to believe in such things.
It was as if they were reminding him of something.
This made Jiang Chen even angrier.
"It's really Gan Lin's mother! In a few days, I'll flatten you!"
Jiang Chen cursed as he looked at the flat street. He suppressed his thoughts and decided not to think about it for now. He planned to open a bag of fortune to calm his emotions.
The virtual interface appeared in front of him. The three lucky bags he had just obtained and the random teleportation talisman were all inside.
Activate!
