Frightening Joke: Above the Mist-Chapter 352: Eyewitness

South Gate Street.

Yu Wenxuan arrived first, but he didn’t go to meet Bai Yanliang immediately.

Instead, he hid in the shadows, watching Bai Yanliang from afar under the lights.

He looked as if he was afraid the ghost wouldn’t see him.

Very strange... but it also fits Bai Yanliang’s personality.

Is he the ghost?

Originally, Yu Wenxuan was ninety percent sure that Bai Yanliang was the ghost, but now, he was uncertain.

Soon, the others appeared one after another.

Only then did Yu Wenxuan pretend to have just arrived and joined everyone in approaching Bai Yanliang.

Wait...

Among these people, could there be a ghost?

Yu Wenxuan suddenly became suspicious.

Everyone acted on their own, unseen by each other, so being replaced by a ghost was quite normal.

With this thought, Yu Wenxuan’s vigilance reached its peak.

The first one... Feng Xiuxue.

That woman’s state was off, like a lost soul, her eyes vacant, footsteps unsteady.

The second one, Gu Pingsheng.

Judging by appearance alone, Yu Wenxuan couldn’t see anything strange about him, but that... was precisely the strangest part.

Why would the distressed Feng Xiuxue be following behind him?

There’s something wrong between these two...

And the third one...

Yu Wenxuan looked at Yu Sheng.

Full of concerns, expression gloomy, skipped.

And... the convener Bai Yanliang.

He was the most problematic one.

If he was the ghost, then he had already succeeded, making everyone show up voluntarily and stand together.

Now would be the perfect time for a massacre.

But since they all came here, each must have their reasons confirming Bai Yanliang was not the ghost.

But then it gets very strange, not the ghost, yet very suspicious, then who is this Bai Yanliang?

"Mr. Bai," Gu Pingsheng stopped, looking at Bai Yanliang, "I heard, you’ve found a way to live."

"Yes." Bai Yanliang didn’t deny this, nor did he make any dangerous moves, just let his gaze sweep over everyone.

"Are you injured?" he calmly asked. freewēbnoveℓ.com

Feng Xiuxue finally snapped back to reality; she silently uncovered the bandage on her wound.

Gu Pingsheng also removed the bandage from his face, "We were targeted by a ghost."

Yu Sheng looked at the frighteningly crimson wounds of these two, feeling entirely uncomfortable, as if a wound could suddenly split open on his own body.

"What’s the way to live?" Yu Wenxuan asked.

Bai Yanliang casually pointed to a corner: "Hide, and wait."

"Wait?" The four were somewhat surprised.

"Wait for what?"

"The ghost." Bai Yanliang said as he walked toward the corner.

Yu Wenxuan was the first to follow, "Do you also think that the one that appeared is not the ghost, but the victim?"

"The real ghost hasn’t appeared yet; you plan to wait for it to show up?"

Just as Yu Wenxuan finished speaking, Bai Yanliang had already hidden behind a street tree, concealing himself.

"No."

He signaled everyone to hide well, then said: "It’s not a victim."

"Hmm?"

All four crouched down, watching Bai Yanliang, Yu Sheng asked softly, "Why?"

Bai Yanliang pointed at Gu Pingsheng’s face and then at Feng Xiuxue’s knee.

"What do you mean?" Feng Xiuxue was in a foul mood, not wanting to play riddles with Bai Yanliang.

She knew this person was definitely not Bai Yanliang, otherwise, Gu Pingsheng wouldn’t have mentioned knowing him.

The man in front of them, although not the ghost, was certainly not Bai Yanliang!

Yu Wenxuan’s eyes flashed with understanding, he thought of something but didn’t speak.

Gu Pingsheng seemed oblivious, still frowning.

But this time, Feng Xiuxue wasn’t buying it at all. This Gu Pingsheng had a major secret, he had been hiding his skills, definitely thought of something.

Feng Xiuxue didn’t dare to expose him or question him.

From the moment she took those two pills, she was under someone’s control.

Gu Pingsheng had been silent for so long, why suddenly reveal so many secrets to her?

There was only one reason... that Gu Pingsheng was absolutely confident in controlling her if she disobeyed or spoke out of turn.

This control could be like before, similar to hypnosis.

Or perhaps... directly take her life.

Feng Xiuxue increasingly regretted taking the painkiller he offered.

Wait!

This person would always carry painkillers when carrying out tasks, meaning... he might have controlled more than one person using this method?

Could it be...

The deeper Feng Xiuxue thought, the more terrifying Gu Pingsheng seemed to her.

She was now convinced that Gu Pingsheng knew she had a diary page.

This kind of person would find it odd if he couldn’t guess she tore that page out.

Thinking back, when she distracted him, Gu Pingsheng’s cooperation was unbelievably smooth, he left Li Mu’s room on his own, giving her space to act.

Could it be... his original intent all along was for me to tear that page out?

As Feng Xiuxue’s thoughts became chaotic, Bai Yanliang’s voice appeared once more.

"The technique is wrong," he said, looking at Feng Xiuxue and Gu Pingsheng’s wounds, "The information shows all the dead had lost limbs and heads, typical physical destruction type fierce ghost, but what you encountered is a curse type."

Feng Xiuxue’s eyes suddenly brightened, exactly!

Cased materials indicate those who died in Qingyi Street had their limbs and heads removed, while she and Gu Pingsheng fell victim to some curse, their flesh falling off!

This doesn’t match the killer fierce ghost!

"So that’s it, it’s also a ghost. There are two ghosts this time, one in the open, killing with a curse, one in the dark, killing with an unstoppable terrifying force..." Gu Pingsheng murmured.

At this moment, Yu Wenxuan’s expression suddenly changed drastically!

A wave of intense pain struck from his fingers, he looked down to find that his left little finger had lost all its flesh, leaving only white bare bone!

"Did you also get cursed?" Bai Yanliang watched Yu Wenxuan.

Yu Wenxuan’s face turned grim, squeezing his wrist as sweat beaded on his forehead.

The pain struck so suddenly, and the flesh on his little finger had weirdly fallen off!

"Bai Yanliang, where exactly were you hiding before, and why didn’t it find you?" Feng Xiuxue saw Yu Wenxuan also hit by the curse, but she didn’t find it amusing, knowing her condition was no better, maybe even worse.

"Don’t you understand yet?" Yu Wenxuan turned to Feng Xiuxue, after a brief adaptation, he managed to endure the piercing pain.

"It’s the eyes, the sighting!" Yu Wenxuan said unwillingly, "You shouldn’t have looked at it. Once you see it, it can sense our location, that ghost made footsteps for this reason."

After Yu Wenxuan spoke, Feng Xiuxue immediately recalled her and Gu Pingsheng’s situation at that time.

Apparently... it was indeed like that.

Because they saw it, they could be seen by it!
