Chapter 199 Du Ping & his girlfriend Xin Yu (2)

His girlfriend would give him a coin every time they went on a date, and he would promise to use it the next day.

One day, after they parted ways, he took the coin back home. The next day, he was busy with his studies and club activities, and by the time he remembered it, he was already in bed.

His girlfriend messaged him on WeChat asking if he had used the coins. He replied that it was too late and all the shops were closed, and he would use them tomorrow.

Xinyu ignored him completely, and from that moment on, it seemed she had disappeared.

He used it again the next day, but when he tried to contact his girlfriend that night, she remained silent.

[Friend, your girlfriend's requirements are quite unusual. Have you thought about it? Considering everything you've said, I have a feeling her background is rather special.]

[Yes, I've witnessed many strange and bizarre things while following the master. Considering his current state, I'm afraid he might have encountered something unclean.]

[Let me add my two cents. They never contact each other during the day, and when they do meet, it's only for a short two hours after 10 pm, and she has to rush back in the early morning. Even the National Security Bureau isn't as busy as her. She's most likely a ghost.]

"Yes!" Du Ping sighed helplessly. "Listen to me, this matter is not over yet."

A few days later, Du Ping went to his anatomy class, and the whole classroom smelled of that strange smell... the smell of formaldehyde.

As soon as Du Ping entered the classroom, he felt that the smell was extremely similar to that of his girlfriend, Xin Yu.

Previously, I was always in class, listening to the teacher explain the anatomy of the cadaver.

They rarely had hands-on experience, but that day the teacher actually let Du Ping be the surgeon.

This is an extremely rare opportunity for a medical student, especially considering his good grades.

The cadaver was placed on the dissection table, her head covered with a white sheet.

Upon seeing her body, Du Ping was deeply moved by Teacher Da Ting's selfless dedication, which gave them, the successors, more opportunities to learn.

Inadvertently, the cloth covering the cadaver's face fell off. Du Ping quickly picked it up, but his movements were too slow when he tried to cover the cadaver's face.

He stared blankly at the woman's face. Wasn't this his girlfriend, Xinyu?

What happened to her that made her like this, and that led her to become a cadaver teacher?

The two hadn't seen each other or been in contact for over half a month, and they never expected to meet again in such a scene.

She slept peacefully, her skin, soaked in the medicine, remained intact.

Du Ping's body moved involuntarily to touch the woman's face, but unexpectedly her mouth was half open, as if she was holding something in her mouth.

As if possessed, Du Ping took it out; it was a one-yuan coin.

Du Ping was very familiar with this coin; the coin he used a few days ago had a very clear scratch on it.

The timing doesn't match up. What went wrong?

Filled with inner grief, he bowed deeply several times to the corpse.

But the teacher on the other end was urging him on. What was he up to?

"Teacher, a coin accidentally fell out of her mouth."

Holding the documents, the teacher replied absentmindedly, "It's normal. She's been in there for six years. I guess she was put there before she became a cadaver."

Six... years?

The coin was dated 2024. How could it possibly be in the mouth of a woman who died six years ago?

The teacher urged him to start quickly, as he would be cremated after today.

Just half a month ago, the two of them would go on dates every night, chatting and taking walks together.

How did he suddenly become someone who had been dead for six years?

Unable to bear it any longer, Du Ping threw down a coin and ran away, leaving behind bewildered students and teachers.

His roommate Xing Qiang chased after him, and Du Ping stayed in bed all afternoon and into the evening.

Thinking back on all the little things he had shared with his girlfriend over the past year, he suddenly realized that his girlfriend of a year was actually a ghost.

The thought alone sends chills down his spine.

At 6 p.m., my roommate Xing Qiang returned, covered in sweat and pale-faced. The dormitory had bunk beds, and my roommate leaned over his bed and took a few deep breaths.

"You're lucky to have escaped. The doctor personally performed the autopsy and found that the woman had most likely drowned in a pond or water, as her body contained a lot of mud and sand."

Then, he gave a strange smile, holding the coin he had taken from the woman's corpse, "How strange, how could a coin from two or three years ago end up in the mouth of a cadaver who died six years ago?"

Du Ping's expression changed drastically, and he quickly stood up. "You should spend this unlucky thing, otherwise it will bring bad luck."

“Master, I feel like he’s coming to find me, otherwise the coin would have reappeared in my sight.”

Du Ping picked up a coin and placed it in front of the camera. The coin had lost its previous luster and color, and had even turned pitch black.

"Hey kid, you didn't make any inappropriate requests of those ladies, did you? Did she really come looking for you?"

Be careful of your roommate; there's a high chance he'll be possessed by that female corpse. Imagine the two of you living in the same dorm room, especially after midnight—it'll be incredibly thrilling.

Gu Yunxi shook her head. "Everyone, stop making wild guesses. Possession is impossible. His roommate, Xing Qiang, is most likely already dead."

"Dead?"

Du Ping trembled with fright, glanced around, and quickly locked the door from the inside.

"Master, how is this possible? Our class started yesterday, and I was in the same room with her last night. He just went down to get water. How could he be dead? Are you sure you didn't miscalculate?"

Just as Du Ping finished speaking, his phone rang. He opened the group message and his expression changed drastically.

“Master, what should I do now? You were right. The counselor just posted a notice in the group that my roommate, Xing Qiang, drowned in the water at 5:48 last night.”

That means the person who came back at 6 o'clock yesterday was not a person at all, and the person who stayed with him all day was Xing Qiang's soul.

"Look at you now, you're completely lifeless. If I'm not mistaken, did he use your things last night, like your pillow or blanket? He drained your yang energy."

Du Ping nodded heavily. "It's not that cold here, so we often sleep shirtless. Last night he was shivering from the cold and took my blanket."

"Master, now that you mention it, I remember. He was covering me with the blanket, and I think I could hear him take a deep breath, but I'm not sure if he exhaled."

"Knock knock knock," came the knocking at the door. Du Ping's face changed drastically: "Master, something bad has happened, my roommate is back."
