Chapter 99 "Bang bang bang—..."

"Thump thump thump—" Listening to his own heartbeat, he realized he couldn't stay up all night anymore.

Yi Sheng urged herself to fall asleep quickly, but as soon as she closed her eyes, she remembered those eyes.

As soon as I closed my eyes, I seemed to hear that person's resentful voice, "Why! Why didn't you save me!"

He drifted off to sleep and vaguely saw a pair of eyes staring at him.

He was so frightened that he immediately opened his eyes, breaking out in a cold sweat. He looked around suspiciously but found nothing. He couldn't help but curse, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt its debtor. What kind of skill is it to come to me if you have the guts? What use am I? Save you? I'd be in deep trouble myself."

Then I covered my head and went back to sleep.

When I opened my eyes, I felt something was wrong; I could barely keep my eyes open.

What happened? He didn't stay up late anymore; he didn't go to bed that late yesterday!

I groped my way to the bathroom, and it took me a while to open my eyes after flushing.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a pool full of blood, which startled me so much that my heart skipped a beat. Then, in the blink of an eye, I noticed that clear water was slowly flowing down the sink.

Is it a hallucination? Is it a hallucination? He raised his hand and touched his eyes, which were burning with pain.

But I didn't think much of it and went to school anyway.

Sure enough, I was ridiculed by many people for having those red eyes. I retorted with a few sarcastic remarks and returned to the classroom, subconsciously glancing at the new student's seat.

He hasn't arrived yet, so the seats are empty, which is normal. He's new and hasn't received his books yet.

He glanced at it and was about to look away when he suddenly felt a strong sense of being watched. He immediately began searching for the source of the gaze, looking around but found nothing.

This made him even more irritable, and he kicked the chair, making a loud noise that silenced the entire class.

However, Yi Sheng couldn't care less about all that right now. He only had one thought: to find out who was troubling him with that annoying gaze!

He sat in his seat in a daze when someone gently moved him. He immediately snapped back to reality and instinctively grabbed the person.

Then he noticed his deskmate looking at him timidly. He calmed himself down a bit and asked, "What's wrong?"

"School's out..." his deskmate reminded him.

This sentence gave him a headache. He felt like he had just arrived at school! How could school be over already?

Before leaving, his deskmate hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Do you want to go to the hospital to get checked out? You seemed really strange in class today."

Then, without waiting for his reply, he ran off in a flash.

With a splitting headache, he returned home and immediately collapsed onto the bed. As soon as he closed his eyes, a pair of eyes appeared in his mind: "Why! Why didn't you save me!" Today, the voice was even more piercing and unbearable.

"Shut up!" He threw the things next to the bed out of the room with a clatter.

Suddenly, I felt a bit of glare and looked up at the bright incandescent light. I couldn't help but wonder when it was turned on.

After a while, he seemed to be in a daze for a moment before lying down straight.

In the morning, Yi Sheng still got up as prompted by his biological clock. He touched his closed eyes and insisted on getting out of bed, walking to the sink to wash his face.

Then, staring at his eyes that looked like they were about to shrink, he went to school, kicked away a chair, sat there in a daze, and then suddenly woke up after school.

I went back to sleep, woke up from a nightmare, and suddenly found myself in the office. I didn't know how many days had passed.

"Yi Sheng! Did you hear me?!" The teacher sternly tapped the table.

Yi Sheng snapped back to reality. "I'm sorry, teacher, I haven't been feeling quite right lately."

"...Yi Sheng, you're not just out of sorts." The teacher lowered her voice, as if afraid of upsetting him, and softened her tone.

Do you know your current situation?

"I'm sorry, teacher, I haven't been sleeping well lately," Yi Sheng apologized.

"It's not that you're not feeling well, it's that you haven't slept for days."

"Teacher, I sleep every day."

"Yi Sheng, I suggest you see a doctor or... take some rest recently," the teacher emphasized.

"Teacher, I'm fine."

The teacher stared at him for a while, then said, "Your parents said you've been acting strangely lately. They told you to take a break and asked for leave, but you came straight to school as if you didn't see them. You sat in someone else's seat all day, and the new student had to change seats."

"What? I..." Yi Sheng began, her voice trembling slightly. "My usual seat is..."

"It's the spot to your right behind you. Come and take a look at this. Your parents installed surveillance cameras in your room after they noticed something was wrong with you."

I opened a video on my computer. In it, Yi Sheng had just lain down when he sat up straight again and started muttering to himself, "Why! Why didn't you save me!" He just sat there without blinking, staring straight ahead.

Suddenly, he abruptly threw everything on the table to the ground, his movements stiff.

His parents heard the commotion and rushed over, then turned on the light. Only then did he realize that his parents had turned on the light, but he hadn't noticed it at the time.

Then he just sat there motionless, his eyes unblinking, and his parents couldn't budge him no matter what they tried until the next morning when he suddenly lay down, got up, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then went to school.

No wonder my eyes were so dry and I didn't blink all night!

Yes, he lives with his parents, but he hasn't noticed or has been ignoring their presence these past few days. Also... his friend Shuoyan has been acting alone these past few days!

He couldn't help but ask, "Where's Shuoyan? Is he alright?"

The teacher pushed up her glasses, looking somewhat surprised. "Who are you talking about?"

"Ye Shuoyan! My good friend is sitting right behind me," Yi Sheng asked anxiously.

"Ye Shuoyan, let me think... Is he your good friend? The new classmate who transferred to our school before? Wasn't he missing for over a year?"

A loud buzzing sound filled his head, and he felt a sudden dizziness.

"Hey classmate, how are you feeling now?" The person next to him greeted him as he seemed to have woken up.

Yi Sheng heard the sound and tried to open his eyes, but when he did, all he could see was darkness, and his hands and feet were bound.

"Are you awake, student? Don't get agitated. Your eyesight is ruined now, and your parents have no choice but to send you to a mental hospital," the voice explained.

Yi Sheng struggled for a while but found it was all in vain.

"Stop struggling. We suspect you have schizophrenia. We'll come back in once you've calmed down. Cooperate well so you'll suffer less." He shook his head and walked out.

As I walked, I felt a deep sense of regret for what a young man I had lost. He was blind and his parents had sent him to a mental hospital. I know that in recent years, for some reason, the number of mentally ill people has been increasing, and the policies have become more and more comprehensive. Basically, once someone is admitted, they can forget about getting out.

Yi Sheng was lost in thought for a while when he suddenly heard a seductive voice, "Are you tired of your current life? I can solve all your problems, as long as you give me your body..."

"Ha-hahaha, isn't everything I have now all because of you?" Yi Sheng seemed to have become a different person and started laughing wildly.

Looking at the eerie creature hidden in Yi Sheng's body, he was a little scared. He was just a minor ghost who had only harmed one person in the past few years, the original owner of the body he used. He never expected that he would be caught and killed by a new transfer student, and then this unlucky guy would stumble in by accident.

He etched his remaining image onto the boy's eyes and had been wearing down his willpower every day for the past few days. Now he could sense that the boy had reached his limit and that this body would soon be his!

So he started trying to tempt me again, saying, "If you hadn't stood by and watched me die, I wouldn't be dead! You should make it up to me! Why didn't you save me!"

"Where's Shuoyan? He's disappeared. Everyone thinks he's been missing for a year. Did you do it?" Yi Sheng stared upwards, even though he couldn't see anything.

Of course not, but he didn't mind taking the blame to make the other party even more afraid. "Of course! As long as you give me your body, I'll help you resurrect your friend..."

"He's not dead!" Yi Sheng gasped for breath.

"..." Puzzled, he decided to settle things first. "I didn't say he was dead."

"Then why would he need to be resurrected?"

"..." Gui was somewhat at a loss for words.

“Heh…” Yi Sheng sneered, “I’m not playing anymore.”

"What..." Before Gui could react, he felt a sharp pain and was forcibly pulled out.

Before he could even react, someone put it in his mouth, making a creepy crunching sound. Yi Sheng chewed it anxiously, trying to relieve his tension in this way.

Unable to see, he didn't notice Aji watching what was happening right beside him; he just stood there watching.

"Yes, there must be a way. I need to go back to a year ago..." Then he saw time begin to distort.

Aji was also swept up in it, and at that moment it emitted a dazzling light.

On the other side, Huiji spotted a pair of hands holding a gun. Was that his gun? Without hesitation, he yanked Nangong Qi out...

"We finally caught you. It seems you're back alive. Congratulations." These were the last words Nangong Qi heard.

When she opened her eyes again, she heard the familiar sound of stir-frying, and outside came her annoying voice urging her, "You brat! Get up! You're going to be late."

"I'm back!" Nangong Qi looked around excitedly. How could she not be familiar with this place? It was the room she lived in before she transmigrated.

She wiped away her tears with a slight tremor and said, "Coming!" Then she went out briskly and saw her mother and father waiting for her to eat at the dining table as usual.

She excitedly ran up and hugged her parents; she was finally back!

Then I heard my mother's voice, "Don't try this on me again! You have to go to school today!"
