Zhang Can was caught off guard when he heard someone calling him. He turned his head subconsciously and found that the person who was speaking was the beautiful woman.
He looked stunned, "You are...?"
The woman raised her eyebrows, and the smile on her lips became more and more subtle.
"What? You don't know me?"
"?" Should he know her?
Zhang Can realized that the other party was an NPC, so he searched for the memories of this body in his mind.
But before he could find any results, he heard the woman speak leisurely: "Didn't you tell Bai Jingmo that you knew me?"
Zhang Shen: “…”
Oh shit, this is weird.
He looked strange, and asked tentatively in disbelief: "Are you... Yu Li?"
The woman replied with her eyes bent, "Yes."
“…”
Bai Jingmo, I really found Yu Li for you.
But Zhang Can quickly reacted and realized that something was not right. This woman was not present when he and Bai Jingmo were talking. How did she know?
Before he could ask these questions, he heard Yu Li suddenly say:
"Is Bai Jingmo at your house?"
Zhang Can:?
He hesitated and said, "...Yes."
Yu Li nodded: "That's perfect, take me to see him."
"……ah?"
As if she noticed Zhang Can's confusion, Yu Li looked over and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Didn't you promise him? I took the initiative to find you, don't you want me to see you?"
"That's not the way to say it..."
Zhang Can choked and his voice was a little stuck. "The main question is... who are you to Bai Jingmo?"
“Ding Dong——”
The elevator reaches the first floor.
The woman waved the car keys in her hand at him and smiled brightly.
"Didn't Xinghao tell you? I'm Bai Jingmo's girlfriend. Can we leave now? Drive my car."
Zhang Can: “……?”
Boss, why didn't you tell me such an important thing?! Bai Jingmo's girlfriend is actually an NPC!
……wrong.
Zhang Can’s face suddenly froze.
Why do NPCs know about their players!?!
…
"Click——" the door lock was opened.
Zhang Can stood at the door, but still turned around to take a look out of concern.
"Are you sure you are Bai Jingmo's girlfriend? Bai Jingmo doesn't seem to... remember you."
“I know.” The woman leaned against the wall with her arms folded, nodding in agreement. “He has lost his memory.”
“…”
You know quite a lot.
Zhang Can opened the door completely, "No need to change shoes, just come in."
He turned on the light, feeling inexplicably excited.
On the one hand, he actually found Yu Li (although it was Yu Li who called him first), and on the other hand, he really wanted to know what was going on between Bai Jingmo and this woman.
But when he saw his empty house, he turned around awkwardly: "Well, although Bai Jingmo is indeed here with me, he doesn't pay much attention to me and usually disappears. How about... we play a spirit summoning game to summon him out?"
"……Need not."
Yu Li walked straight into the door. She tied her hair up casually and looked around the house. When she looked at a certain place, the corners of her mouth curled up.
Wow, you're still shy.
Pretending not to notice anything unusual, Yu Li sat down on the sofa, then looked at Zhang Can and waved, as if she were at home, "Come and sit together."
"ah?"
He seems to be the owner of this house...
Zhang Can stood at the door, a little overwhelmed, "Wait... I'll go to the kitchen to get you a glass of water."
The main reason is that his mind is a little confused now, and he needs some time alone to calm down.
When Zhang Shen walked into the kitchen, Yu Li looked at the house again.
When her eyes touched a certain corner, her eyes flickered and she suddenly called out, "Bo Jingmo."
The air around them froze for a moment.
After a while, the living room was still quiet.
The woman blinked and laughed inwardly. When she saw the oranges on the table, she picked up one and played with it in her hand.
She looked at the knife on the table, her eyes thoughtful, and muttered, "What a hassle. Let's just forget it."
Then he put the orange back.
Zhang Can saw this scene when he came out of the kitchen. After placing the water cup in front of Yu Li, he subconsciously asked, "Do you want to eat? I can help you cut it."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding temperature immediately dropped by several degrees.
Zhang Shen's back stiffened and goose bumps appeared on his back.
He looked around as if he was aware of something, and then he saw a familiar figure reflected in the reflective glass of the balcony.
The man was standing in the corner of the living room, staring at him dangerously and coldly, his dark pupils glowing faintly red.
“…”
OK, now this woman’s identity is truly confirmed.
Yu Li leaned on the sofa and shook her head when she heard it. "No, I'll treat you to dinner after we're done."
Zhang Can: “Haha…Okay.”
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but it feels even colder around me.
Yu Li's eyes fell on the table which had not yet been cleaned up, on which were placed various props for playing with the Ouija board.
"Is this the prop you used to play with the Pen Fairy last night?"
Zhang Can followed her gaze and said, "Yes, we did it too late last night and didn't have time to clean it up."
The woman said in a natural tone: "Want to play?"
"Okay—eh? Now? Have a play?"
Zhang Shen realized something was wrong halfway through his speech. He looked puzzled. Wasn't he supposed to discuss something else? Why did he suddenly start playing with the Pen Fairy for no apparent reason?
Yu Li didn't realize anything was wrong, and nodded when she heard it, "Yeah, let's play a game. Since Bai Jingmo won't come out, I think we should use the method of summoning spirits to summon him out as you said."
It seemed that there was nothing wrong with saying this, and Zhang Can was about to agree, but the next second, he saw the pencil on the table break into two pieces, and the standing candle suddenly went out and fell down.
Zhang Shen: “…”
It seemed like someone, no, a ghost was angry.
He subconsciously looked at Yu Li, but the woman raised her eyebrows and leaned back lazily, "Forget it, I won't confess. It seems that he doesn't want to see me, so forget it. I won't force it. I'll leave after I'm done."
As soon as these words were spoken, a sound of shattering suddenly came from the kitchen.
"Snap——" a harsh sound rang out in the living room.
Zhang Can quickly stood up and said, "Sorry, I'll go check it out."
When Zhang Can disappeared from her sight again, Yu Li leaned back on the sofa, turning the ring on her hand out of boredom.
Suddenly, the knife on the table in front of him moved without warning, floating in the air strangely, and then cut the orange on the table with great precision, as if it was held by a transparent person.
“…”
Yu Li's eyes remained calm throughout, as if she was not frightened by the scene.
When the orange was pushed closer to her, she spoke calmly:
"Take it away. I won't eat what you cut."
