Chapter 188 Different Paths



This waterway was significantly different from the two others on the left and right. The walls on either side were similar, but it became significantly wider, and the ground at its feet became increasingly flat and dry. In the distance, the sound of rushing water could be heard. This was probably caused by the flow of water from the nearby waterways connecting to each other.

The wall above the waterway is equipped with several pipes of different sizes, and the sound of flowing water can be heard from time to time.

Furthermore, the waterway was quite bright, as there were several electric lights installed nearby, meaning there were a lot of electrical connections on the nearby walls. However, looking in from the entrance, I didn't get that feeling. Perhaps I had to go quite deep into the waterway to get that feeling.

My dead self had been walking ahead of me. Actually, I was quite curious. Since he was my dead self, he must exist as a ghost, right? If he was a ghost, why would he walk? Wouldn't he just float past? But thinking back, the thought of following my dead self through this eerie waterway was terrifying.

Imagine that one day someone claiming to be your dead self appears in front of you, what would you do?

That being said, this waterway wasn't as scary as people made it out to be. While it was somewhat different from the waterways to its left and right, the contrast wasn't stark. At most, walking through it, I'd occasionally feel a chill that penetrated my bones. That alone was truly terrifying.

"Hey, do you know who the skeleton in the waterway on the right is?" He suddenly recalled that the skeleton he encountered in the waterway on the right before was only a female police officer. At that time, he thought it was Feng Ling, but it was not her, but someone else.

"That... was the director's wife, one of the nine people who died. But among the nine people, except for you and Officer Feng, the other seven are already dead." I said nonchalantly after my death: "The three little boys you just met in the waterway on the left are also three of the nine people. They are all trapped here..."

The chief's wife? Yeah, they were both local police officers, and considering their ages, she's a good match for the chief. But since she was one of the nine dead, only their ghosts should be here, right? Why is the chief's wife's body here too? And in that helpless, skeletal state?

I asked this question, and after death, I laughed and said, "Because the director's wife was pushed into the sewer and died, her body naturally still exists."

I was shocked. Who was so bold? How could they push the chief's wife? Besides, the chief's wife was also a police officer. How could she be pushed into the sewer and die so easily?

After I died, I continued, "I remember someone told you this. The seven people who died earlier all had nightmares about being pushed downstairs or hacked to pieces. The director's wife was inexplicably pushed on the back and fell into the sewer and died. No one knows who pushed her, because no one saw anyone push her. Maybe she jumped... Of course, now you can give her a reasonable explanation."

I frowned: "Could it be that... she pushed him down after she died?"

My dead self nodded and smiled: "Exactly!"

I was startled, and instantly became extremely wary of my afterlife, staying as far away from him as possible. As if noticing my unusual behavior, my afterlife laughed and said, "Are you suspecting that I might also push you towards death from behind?"

Who knows! That's how the director's wife died. How can I not be vigilant?

"It seems that regardless of whether you and I are the same person or not, since we are separated, there is no trust between us." The dead me shrugged nonchalantly. "But I don't mind it, because until now, I still don't know how you died. I only know that you will die if you enter here. I also know some things before you die, but I don't know how you died."

So weird? Knowing what happened before death, but not knowing how it happened? This...

Was it a sneak attack? No, if it was a sneak attack, he would definitely feel it! Then, did he die without any consciousness? Apart from this, there is no other doubt.

At this time, the waterway forked, splitting into two paths. Su Xiaoniu suddenly warned me, "The left path ahead is relatively flat and easy to walk on, but there's a lot of zombie and goblin activity. The right path, on the other hand, is rocky and difficult to walk on. If you're not careful, you could easily fall into the abyss or be swept away by the rapids, but there are fewer zombies and goblins."

I was stunned for a moment: "The right side is so dangerous, let's go to the left side. I can still deal with some zombies and ghosts."

But Su Xiaoniu denied it and said, "No! Go to the right!"

I was speechless and said, "The right side is so dangerous, plus there are zombies and ghosts causing trouble, this way I go will be even more dangerous and unpredictable! On the other hand, the left side is easier to walk on, no matter how many zombies and ghosts there are, I am not afraid!"

Su Xiaoniu said angrily, "I said go to the right, so go to the right! Don't you listen to me?"

"It's not that I don't want to listen, it's just..." I didn't finish my sentence. I suddenly froze. As if I had thought of something, I turned my head to look at my dead self, but I saw my dead self looking at me with a funny face and asked me: "Did you start arguing with the girl about whether to go left or right?"

"How did you know?" I was stunned.

After I died, I spread my hands and said, "Because that's how I died."

I was horrified by his words: "What... do you mean?"

After my death, I smiled evilly and said, "Didn't I tell you before? I died after entering this waterway because I didn't listen to the girl. Will you make the same mistake again?"
