Chapter 47 Mimi, why do they call you Brother Mi?
Night.
A tumor as small as a beef ball was rolling at an incredible speed, dragging a long black tail behind it, very similar to a cat.
Nine thirty at night.
The university town is still bustling.
Inside the school, young students can be seen walking in groups.
The street lights illuminate the path, and each person leaves a long shadow behind him.
Bai Yuan sensed it carefully.
The original body had come into contact with not only the students and teachers in this school, but also the shop owners and street vendors on the street outside the school, as well as residents of the community, etc.
The original cat is fat and strong, with shiny and clean fur, which makes it very likable. Coupled with its arrogant eyes and cold personality, everyone enjoys being able to please the original cat and feels that they are more liked by cats.
But in the eyes of the original body, these servants were just racking their brains to please it. When it was happy occasionally, it would condescend to let the others stroke its fur, but at most a few times, it would turn around and leave in a haughty manner, swinging its tail hard on the other's arm.
And these humble servants, far from being afraid, would be flattered instead.
For this reaction.
The original body would inexplicably have a feeling of secret satisfaction, thinking that he really didn't need to do anything, and could easily mobilize the joys, sorrows, anger and happiness of all humans, and they would also contribute all kinds of cat food and canned food to him.
It is indeed the boss.
Bai Yuan was greatly shocked.
Is there such a good thing in this world?
He decided to continue with his original body's aloof personality and experience the joy of being the boss.
While thinking.
As he approached a dozen target subjects, these were students and teachers who had recently come into contact with the original body.
certainly.
This is also related to the fact that they can always bring delicious and tasty canned food to please the original body greatly. For the sake of sustainable development, the original body will occasionally give them a chance to pet the fur.
Through the original plot provided by the previous system, we can learn that each monster has its own abilities and taboos, as well as the price to pay for contacting the monster.
The Ghost Servant is a unique ability of the A-level Ghost.
Transform some living people or objects into your own servants, giving them some of your own abilities, so that they can spread like a virus and kill more humans.
The ability of Bai Yuan's body is to kill anyone who has come into contact with his original body.
Every day, he would get closer to his target, and when the target became more and more frightened and afraid, until the seventh day, he would be able to come to the other party and devour the other party like that weird thing.
And then...
Bai Yuan suspected that the other party would also turn into a beef ball like the original body, and continue to kill people who had contact with this person, and continue to spread.
This is a terrifying ability.
It is no wonder that the containment organization defines Class A as an extremely dangerous existence that cannot be contained at all. The only thing they can do is cut off the mechanism at the source to prevent the other party from continuing to develop new strange servants.
Until the strangeness takes the initiative to kill new people, the terrible curse will come again.
Bai Yuan said to the system in his mind: "This is as dangerous as the zombie virus in the previous world."
The system thinks so too.
It was a little worried: [Host, if you really encounter something weird that you can't handle, I will just take you away. ]
This kind of weird existence is simply unreasonable.
Bai Yuan said as he jumped up the stairs, "Okay."
After experiencing two worlds, he gained a deeper understanding of the rich and complex emotions of human beings. Sometimes accepting the other person's kindness would make the other person happier than rejecting it.
As expected.
The system was stunned for a few seconds, as if it couldn't believe that Bai Yuan didn't reject it again, and the data became a little disordered. [Really? Then I will definitely protect the host well. ]
Under the street light.
A young couple was walking hand in hand. Out of the corner of their eyes, they caught a glimpse of the steps under the street light and something seemed to flash by.
"Hey? Is there a kitten?"
The girl was very surprised and pulled her boyfriend over.
As soon as the two reached the stairs, they could only vaguely see a black tail flashing across the top step. They hurriedly climbed up, their happy expressions suddenly froze and turned into unspeakable horror.
There is indeed a cat's tail on the flat surface of the highest step. The shiny black tail shows that the cat is very clean and is groomed every day.
But the problem is that at the base of the tail, what is connected to it is not a cute cat no matter how you look at it, but a red tumor.
Although it had no facial features or ears, it strangely heard the footsteps of the two people. It suddenly turned its head and looked at the two people quietly with the side that also had a tumor. The tail behind it stopped shaking and dropped vertically.
It was supposed to be a cool night.
The two men felt a chill spreading from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads, making them cold and stiff all over. Their brains went blank and they didn't even have time to think of running away.
“Ghost, ghost—!”
The girl instinctively let out an extremely sharp scream, covered her mouth and stepped back, almost falling directly down the stairs, suffering minor injuries or even broken bones.
Fortunately, even though the boy was very scared, he still held his girlfriend tightly.
The two of them staggered and quickly steadied themselves. When they looked again in horror, the ghost was nowhere to be seen. All around was quiet, with only some students walking quickly towards them not far away.
There are both men and women.
"What's wrong?"
"Why are you two so pale and covered in cold sweat?"
Faced with these people's questions and concerns, the young couple was still in shock and was helped to the infirmary with weak legs. After a preliminary examination, the doctor said that they were just frightened.
The two drank the hot water and finally felt their bodies gradually warming up.
The people from the Academic Affairs Office came over immediately and asked the two what happened. After hearing that the two said they saw the beef ball with a tail and jumping around everywhere.
Everyone: “…”
This sounds absurd.
But the two men's pale faces and cold sweats could not be faked at all.
"You may have seen it wrong. Go back to the dormitory and have a good rest for the night. If you have any problems again, come to us as soon as possible."
Hearing this.
The two knew that no one believed what they said, so they said anxiously, "It's true, it must be a ghost. It heard our footsteps and turned back to look at us."
The girl was so emotional that she couldn't help crying.
The girl's roommates rushed over and tried to comfort her, telling her not to be afraid, saying that it must be an illusion. Even if it was real, she hadn't done anything bad, so ghosts wouldn't come to take her life.
The person from the Academic Affairs Office was about to say that this was ridiculous, but he found that the little girl was really coaxed by this sentence. She wiped her tears and said firmly, "Yes, I often buy canned food to feed kittens. I am so kind, there is no reason for ghosts to come to me."
My roommates nodded.
The little girl was revived and the other boy recovered quickly. After saying goodbye to each other, they left with their roommates.
The people in the Academic Affairs Office didn't pay much attention to this matter and told everyone to do what they were supposed to do.
As the source of this accident, Bai Yuan sensed a small group of emotional forces surging, two of which were fear and terror, and the rest were uncertainty and suspicion.
He hadn't thought of scaring the two men.
Just when he jumped onto the stairs, he happened to sense a target that barely met the taboo requirement approaching. Bai Yuan couldn't sense who this target was, so he stopped out of curiosity.
Turn around again.
I just happened to see this young couple.
The little girl among them looked particularly familiar. Bai Yuan searched his original body's memory and recognized her immediately.
Half a year ago.
When the original body was just a six-month-old cat, the little girl happened to pass by and met the original body. She took out a small can of food from her bag and fed it.
Cats six months old are often in an awkward period.
Although it is not as cute as it was when it was a kitten, even if it does nothing, it is enough to conquer humans with its baby voice and furry body. It is so small that it can be held in the palm of your hand. It is soft and fragrant.
It is not as elegant or beautiful as it was when it was a big cat, with soft or fluffy fur, a round face, or a pointed yet heroic and cool face. All kinds of flavors can perfectly attract everyone.
Cats in the awkward period appear to have big heads and small bodies, and their body shapes develop to a somewhat deformed stage, making them look ugly and unattractive.
During this awkward period, the original body rarely encountered people screaming and praising how cute it was. It felt a little lost and hadn't felt secretly happy for a long time.
Only this little girl was directly moved by the original man's cool attitude. She screamed excitedly and couldn't help but poke him gently.
The original person was busy eating the canned food and ignored the other party.
With just this one chance of contact, the original body quickly forgot about this little girl.
This is also the reason why Bai Yuan didn't think of her.
but.
After seeing Bai Yuan and feeling fear and terror, the little girl directly triggered a strange taboo and became one of the eligible targets.
Bai Yuan can find the little girl for seven consecutive days, and each time he will stimulate the fear in her heart. On the seventh day... he can kill her.
certainly.
Bai Yuan would not do that.
He never liked killing people, nor did he like scaring a loving and kind weak human being in this way.
He turned around and decided to look for the target that was most closely related to his original self.
That is - the college students who had pooled money to take the original body, who was only a few months old, to the clinic for treatment, and the doctor in the clinic outside the school.
He went to find these college students first.
Three boys and two girls.
He approached the dormitory quietly without being discovered by anyone. After some secret visits and investigations, he learned the names and general information of the five people.
There was also a young couple among them.
It seems that they have had a crush on each other since high school and agreed to take the college entrance examination together. They have been together for two years and have a very good relationship. They are planning to stay in the local area and find jobs together after graduation.
The reason why Bai Yuan found these five people was very simple.
If he didn't come to find these five people, Guiyi would definitely notice something was wrong. He might come to find him in person and attack these five people and the doctor at the same time.
What Bai Yuan needs now is a large amount of energy.
Once enough energy is accumulated, it can devour the weirdness and replace it.
The night gradually deepened.
Most of the students in the dormitory building had lain down to sleep, and the only sound in the quiet corridor was some unknown voices.
After Yu Honghang finished washing up, he lay on the bed and sent a message to Fang Dan.
[Tomorrow let's go out and buy some canned food and look at the cats. I don't know where Mimi went yesterday. I didn't see her.]
Yu Honghang is a person who likes cats very much.
However, due to limited conditions in the dormitory, he cannot keep any cats. He can only buy some canned wool to feed stray cats occasionally. But his favorite cat has to be the black cat that he and a few friends pooled their money to rescue a year ago.
He has an extremely cold appearance, and looks arrogant and disdainful.
He always thought that after he graduated from college and got a job, he could take Mimi away and stop her from wandering around.
During this year, he often went to visit Mimi every week with Fontaine, trying to build a closer relationship with her, but every time, Mimi always looked down on him with squinted eyes and never paid any attention to him.
But it doesn't matter.
As long as he likes Mimi.
Yesterday was the time for his weekly visit to Mimi, but he didn’t find Mimi in the usual place, which made him a little uneasy.
Fontaine also likes Mimi very much, and she felt a little worried when she thought about this.
Typed reply to Yu Honghang.
[Okay, let's go look for Mimi after class tomorrow. Maybe she was playing with some stray cat and forgot the time. There are so many stray cats in University Town Street. They are all living well. No one will hurt them.]
Yu Honghang's uneasy heart gradually calmed down.
yes.
Especially Mimi is the bully among cats. Which boss on this street doesn’t know Mimi?
【Dandan, good night.】
【Good evening. 】
After saying goodbye to each other, the young couple closed their eyes and prepared to go to sleep.
Yu Honghang turned off the small lamp beside the bed. His roommates had gone to bed early, and the dormitory was so quiet that even the sound of a pin drop could be heard.
Suddenly.
A faint rolling sound was heard, and it seemed like something was moving, gently and slowly.
“Bah—”
Knocking on the door.
Yu Honghang turned over and heard the voice again. Each time it was quiet and slow, it easily attracted people's attention.
Yu Honghang had to open his eyes and turn his head to look.
My roommates were all sleeping quietly, without even turning over, and it seemed that they didn't hear the noise outside the door.
He just lay down again and tried to ignore the voice.
“Bah—”
Who would come and knock on the door for no apparent reason in the middle of the night?
Yu Honghang was rarely angry. He had always been a good-tempered person. He turned over and got out of bed quietly, opened the door gently, and looked out angrily.
The corridor was quiet and only lights could be seen not far away.
There was no one on either side, not even a living thing like a mouse.
The weird thing is.
The clicking sound also disappeared.
Just when he was feeling inexplicably uneasy, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something rolling quickly past him. However, that thing was extremely small, like a small ball with a long furry tail.
Weird shapes.
He was startled: "What is that?"
The roommates were awakened by the sound and sat up, rubbing their eyes. "Hangzi, what's wrong?"
Yu Honghang stared closely at the thing not far away. It seemed to have disappeared. He was about to breathe a sigh of relief and turned to tell his roommates that it was nothing and that he might have seen it wrong.
But the next second.
At the end, an unclear shadow seemed to emerge. It had no shape and seemed to have a long tail at the edge.
Just one second.
This black fog inexplicably makes people feel a little scared.
But what really shocked Yu Honghang was that this ball of black fog was clearly conscious and was getting closer and closer at a slow speed.
This scene was extremely shocking.
He took a few steps back in fear.
His body hit the door, making a loud noise, which startled the people in the dormitory and made them come down one after another. They looked in the direction where Yu Honghang was looking in shock.
In the corner.
A ball of black fog approached with a tail. Even if you looked carefully, you couldn't see clearly what it was.
"Oh my god, what is that?!"
“A ghost——!”
Several people screamed in fear, and the sensor lights in the corridor lit up one after another, illuminating the previously dim corridor extremely clearly.
But the strange black shadow disappeared.
It seemed like it was just their illusion.
But several people couldn't help but look at each other, and they saw fear and terror in each other's eyes. If a person saw an illusion, it would be understandable.
Then they all saw...
…
"We must have been haunted! That thing is targeting us."
When the people in other dormitories were awakened by the noise, they opened the door and cursed. Then they looked at the pale faces of the people opposite them, as if they had seen a ghost, and couldn't help but joked: "Did you see a ghost?"
Who knew it was just a joke.
The people opposite seemed to be frightened and waved their hands in fear, as if there really was a ghost eavesdropping on their conversation. This atmosphere instantly infected other people and they were also frightened.
"W-What do you mean?"
When they were squeezed into the small dormitory, they heard Yu Honghang and his roommates say that they had really encountered a ghost. There was a scary ghost in the corridor, and they didn't know whether it was a man or a woman, but they just knew that it was targeting them.
"I guess... I saw it wrong?"
The others swallowed in fear, some of them dared not to imagine it.
Suddenly.
I don’t know who started the conversation. “A friend of mine, his roommate… also encountered a ghost. He even alerted the teaching department at the time, but they later said it was a mistake, and nothing more was done about it.”
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at the man in fear. He continued to look at her with fear and said slowly: "Do you think this is the same ghost?"
The dormitory returned to silence again.
Everyone shuddered inexplicably, and for a moment they felt that everything about the dormitory was weird, but they couldn't leave school in the middle of the night to find a place to stay, right?
not to mention.
No one else has actually seen this ghost with their own eyes.
What if they just happened to be passing by?
One of the boys said, "Let's go back to sleep. You guys should separate and squeeze into other dormitories. Don't stay here."
But Yu Honghang rejected the suggestion. He was afraid of implicating others and decided to stay in the dormitory. His roommates thought about it and also decided to stay in the dormitory.
The others tried to persuade them, but to no avail, so they had to leave with concern, saying that if there was any problem, they must shout and they would come out to help as soon as possible.
Yu Honghang and his companions thanked these people. They closed the dormitory door and lay down, their spirits tense at all times.
I dare not sleep.
Bai Yuan slowly appeared and stood in the corner.
Its image at this moment is still a mass of red flesh with a tail. As for the black shadow seen by those people, it is one of the abilities that comes with being a strange servant.
Bai Yuan can absorb fear and convert it into strange power to create illusions.
This is somewhat similar to his real ability.
But the difference is that this weirdness can only absorb the power of fear, and can only absorb fear through specific targets and reap the opponent's life.
And Bai Yuan can absorb all emotions.
As long as it's related to him.
This made him very curious about similar abilities, and he decided to keep the unique ability of the creature after swallowing it.
besides.
He was also curious about other strange abilities. He didn't know what would happen if he swallowed up all of them and left behind the other party's taboos and abilities.
Bai Yuan flicked his tail and quickly disappeared.
The night time usually passes quickly.
But for the boys in the dormitory on this floor, each day felt like a year. They didn't even dare to turn off the lights and they all took out their mobile phones to kill time.
Someone couldn't help but bring up this matter in the group.
But most people are critical of this, believing that the other party should not spread such false rumors. If a timid person really sees it, he will definitely be scared.
But there happened to be two people in the group who knew the young couple who were frightened on the stairs before. They immediately joined the group, sent the screenshot to the group and asked: [Is this the same ghost you saw tonight? ]
The young couple had already learned from the man's roommate that Yu Honghang had also encountered a ghost. The only difference was that they saw a red tumor, but the other saw a black fog.
But the problem is that both ghosts have a black tail.
It is hard to say that such similar encounters are coincidences or illusions. They became more and more convinced that what they saw was definitely a ghost.
They decided to look for Yu Honghang the next day.
the next day.
When Fang Dan found out that Yu Honghang had sent her a message early, she felt strange for a moment. His sleep and rest schedule was very stable, and he usually woke up at 6:30. In order not to disturb her, he would send her a message after 7 o'clock.
But this time, the other party actually sent a message at around four in the morning.
[Dandan, I feel a little uncomfortable today. You have to go find Mimi by yourself. Remember to tell me if you have any news.]
Fang Dan immediately became nervous and quickly made a video call to Yu Honghang.
More than ten seconds passed.
The other person's pale face appeared on the screen, with big dark circles under his eyes, as if he had not slept all night.
Fontaine became even more anxious and asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable? Have you been to the infirmary? I'll come find you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Honghang on the opposite side immediately said nervously: "Don't come over to me." As if he was afraid that Fang Dan would come over again, he quickly smiled and said: "I'm really fine, it's just a minor cold."
He urged Fontaine to go find Mimi first and make sure it was safe.
My minor cold is not a big deal. If I really have a fever, my roommates will help take me to the infirmary for an IV drip.
Upon hearing this, Fang Dan had no choice but to give a few more instructions before hanging up the phone.
After Yu Honghang hung up the phone, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the young couple opposite him with an even more panicked and complicated expression. Just that morning, the two of them found him through his roommate and hoped to meet and talk about the ghost.
After communicating with each other, the three found that the probability that this was a ghost was very high.
They didn't know who the ghost was or why they were the only ones who saw it. What really scared them was whether the ghost would appear again.
The three of them were the first to see the ghost.
There must be some overlooked commonality that attracted the ghost.
Before finding out the source, Yu Honghang didn't dare to meet anyone rashly for fear of implicating the other party.
The other side.
Fontaine waited until there was no class in the afternoon.
She hurried out of the school to find Mimi, passed by some places Mimi often went to, and asked some shop owners and stall owners.
Fontaine's expression gradually became nervous and worried.
Not good.
Mimi has been seen since yesterday morning, or to be exact, the night before yesterday. She passed by this street, ate the cat food fed by a shop owner, and walked away with her tail wagging.
But since that time, until now.
No one has seen Mimi since then, and many shop owners are already asking through the shop owner group whether anyone has seen Mimi.
Mimi's disappearance soon attracted the attention of people living near the street.
Fang Dan was extremely anxious, and her first reaction was to find Yu Honghang to discuss what to do. But then she thought, Yu Honghang was already sick, and there was no way he could come out to help look for the patient.
But this matter cannot be hidden from the other party.
Fang Dan decided to call other friends to look for Mimi together, and then tell Yu Honghang if they couldn't find her.
"Mimi...?"
"Mimi!"
evening.
Many shop owners and street vendors, as well as some residents of nearby communities, spontaneously began to look for the black cat in the surrounding area, but unfortunately they still found nothing.
They quickly counted the number of stray cats nearby.
The only one who was discovered missing was Mimi.
Everyone's faces looked even uglier, and they were worried. Could it be that Mimi... They didn't dare to think about it anymore, so they had to take advantage of the low customer flow to carefully check the video surveillance of the past two days in the store, trying to find any trace of Mimi.
Suddenly, one of the shop owners excitedly sent a group message: "I found the surveillance footage of Mimi!"
