Frightening Joke: Above the Mist-Chapter 351 Memories

Eighteenth Middle School.

Bai Yanliang had completely taken over Zhang Yun’s body and was following Bai Yanren.

"You said earlier that they wouldn’t come down to the first floor. Why?"

Bai Yanren smiled, "Because there’s a ghost on the first floor that’s a hundred times fiercer than them."

Seeing the "surprise" on "Zhang Yun’s" face, Bai Yanren reassured, "Don’t worry, although it’s on the first floor, in some sense, it’s also not on the first floor. As long as you don’t go near that area, there’s not much of a problem."

"Where are we going?"

Bai Yanliang asked softly.

Bai Yanren glanced at "her". He always had a suspicion, why... does he always feel a sense of familiarity from this little girl?

He initially thought this familiarity came from them both being people of the Eight Prisons, but upon careful reflection, Bai Yanren found that wasn’t the case.

In this little girl’s tone, there was a hidden trace of reliance...

Maybe, I made a mistake...

Sometimes, when he saw "Zhang Yun’s" eyes, Bai Yanren seemed to see the illusion of his younger brother Bai Yanliang.

And Bai Yanliang hadn’t realized that after seeing his brother, his tense nerves, and constantly thinking brain suddenly relaxed a lot.

Like now, he wasn’t even thinking about what to do next, but instead handed the problem to Bai Yanren.

"Ghosts have a very special aura, likewise, doors do too," Bai Yanren said in a low voice as he moved forward, "We who see ghosts often can already sharply feel that cold, strange, malicious atmosphere, and the more fierce the ghost, the more the surroundings are filled with ’malice’."

"By the way, you came down from the upper floors. Did you feel a huge ’malice’?" Bai Yanren stopped walking and suddenly asked.

Huge malice?

Bai Yanliang thought carefully. The restroom where Zhang Yun stayed, although ghosts were encountered in the corridor and classroom, the restroom was scarier in terms of fear, as in Zhang Yun’s perspective, the ceiling, door handle, and even the walls and ground started to distort.

"Restroom." Bai Yanliang replied.

"Hmm..." Bai Yanren touched his chin and nodded, "So it is the restroom..."

What does he mean by this?

Bai Yanliang looked ahead. Sure enough, Bai Yanren was leading him towards the restroom.

"Did you notice?" Bai Yanren gave him an appreciative glance, "You’re indeed very perceptive. The very terrifying fierce ghost’s territory is in the first-floor restroom. I suspect the door Eighteenth Middle School opened is also there."

"Well, are you going with me?"

Bai Yanren smiled.

"Hmm." Bai Yanliang nodded calmly.

"Uh..." Bai Yanren was a bit embarrassed, "Aren’t you going to consider? We’re all flesh and blood, with no superpowers, I can’t protect you."

"This is the superpower." Bai Yanliang pointed at his head and said.

"Hahaha..."

Bai Yanren suppressed a laugh and lowered his voice.

Looking at "Zhang Yun" with a serious face, he said, "I’ll definitely introduce you to my brother one day. I’m sure you two will get along well."

"Is he much like me?" Bai Yanliang asked casually.

"In every way..." Bai Yanren glanced up and down at "Zhang Yun," "except gender."

"Then he must be pretty boring."

"..." Bai Yanren couldn’t respond well to that, as he’s never met someone who directly called themselves boring.

Just as he was about to avoid the topic and get ready to enter the restroom, "Zhang Yun" spoke up again.

"You won’t have any issues this time."

This mysterious statement left Bai Yanren confused.

What does she mean by "this time"?

The tone was almost as if she had foreseen the future.

"Haha, thanks for your blessing, but I hope there won’t be any issues next time either." Bai Yanren laughed.

"What’s today’s date?"

"June 3rd, why?" Bai Yanren looked at "her" curiously.

This little girl is truly strange. Isn’t this her school day?

June 3rd...

Bai Yanliang’s heart tightened, memories floating back to ten years ago.

That year, on that day, he cleaned the house thoroughly and went to the market to buy noodles, bought vegetables, and made a bowl of birthday noodles for his brother.

But, Yanren didn’t come home overnight that day...

June 3rd, today, is Yanren’s birthday.

And June 6th, is the day Bai Yanliang was arrested.

The reason was, on June 5th, he murdered and dismembered his brother... Bai Yanren.

Two days!

Just two days after returning from this school, there was a change at home.

"Bai Yanliang’s" breathing grew rapid. It must be here... It must be at this school where Yanren encountered something abnormal!

The memories and the fragmented memories seen when using the key told Bai Yanliang, two days later, he himself would die.

Yanren used some forbidden method to bring him back to life.

And Yanren himself... was torn apart by his own hands.

Why did I die?

Bai Yanliang racked his brains but couldn’t find a trace of the memory.

What exactly... happened to me?

"Sister Zhang? Sister Zhang?" Bai Yanren waved his hand in front of him, "If you’re really scared, just wait at the door until the rain stops. You don’t have to come in with me..."

Bai Yanliang finally snapped back to reality.

He looked into Bai Yanren’s eyes, suddenly feeling a little dazed; he was as gentle as ever...

Someone like him couldn’t possibly be deceptive...

But, in the fragments of memory, Bai Yanliang did see from the shadow of Yanren, there was him.

No... I only saw fragmented images, without seeing the timeline...

Could it be... that I actually died long ago?

But then what are those memories about?

In that villa, that haunting ghost mentioned... don’t be deceived by false memories...

Ghosts can be deceivers.

But sometimes, ghosts can be extremely real.

False memories...

Are there false parts in my memories...

Bai Yanliang rarely appeared lost.

Regarding one’s own matters, even the most clear-headed person could not remain calm as water.

"Sister Zhang, you take a good rest, I can’t delay any longer." Bai Yanren patted "Zhang Yun’s" shoulder, ready to turn and walk towards the restroom.

"Wait," Bai Yanliang came back to his senses, calmed down, and said, "I’ll go with you."

Bai Yanren didn’t persuade her anymore.

Everyone has to be responsible for their own choices.

The two of them, one in front of the other, slowly approached the restroom on the first floor.

The closer they got, the more Bai Yanliang understood what Bai Yanren meant by "evil" earlier.

Just reaching the outside of the restroom, everything around had been stained blood red.

The walls, the floor, the door cracks, the water dripping on the ground, everything.

It all exuded a blood-like crimson...
