After everyone left, Song Shiming sat down on a beach chair, still feeling a little scared.
Wang Qinghe and the others gathered around and asked in confusion, "Brother Ming, what's wrong? Can't you swim? Did you have a leg cramp just now? You scared us so much that we almost jumped into the sea to help you."
Chu Yanran asked worriedly, "Brother Ming, are you scared? Do you want to go back to your room and rest for a while?"
Song Shiming pulled the corners of his lips, his handsome face showing a conflicted expression. He opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Yue Yan asked, "Are you entangled by something?"
Song Shiming's expression froze for a moment before he looked up at them, hesitant to speak, "I think I saw something I shouldn't have. I was trying to rescue someone easily, but as I was swimming back, my ankle was grabbed. I couldn't break free, so I looked down... and saw a dark figure with long hair. It scared me so much that I could even feel the gaze staring at me through the hair."
Wang Qinghe scratched his head and said, "What? A black shadow with long hair? Are you sure, Brother Ming? Maybe you saw it wrong, and it's actually seaweed?"
Yue Yan said, "I just asked, there's no seaweed that long around here. This is a six-star hotel, they definitely wouldn't allow seaweed to grow in the safe area."
Chen Quan swallowed and asked, "Then...what exactly is it?"
Chu Yanran blurted out subconsciously, "It can't be a ghost, right?"
For a moment, everyone was silent.
Chu Yanran sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth, laughing awkwardly, "I was just saying it casually, don't take it seriously."
Wen Xi stared at Song Shiming's ankle and pointed, "Look for yourself."
When Song Shiming and the others heard this, they all lowered their heads to look at his ankle. It seemed to be stained with something dirty, and it was black. You could vaguely see that it was a slap mark.
“Oh my god!”
Song Shiming was already frightened, and now he really jumped up, raised his dirty leg in a one-legged stance, and said nervously, "Damn, did I really run into that thing? Chu Yanran, you're such a badass."
Chu Yanran silently took two steps back and said innocently, "How can you blame me for this? It's just that Brother Ming has a good physique and is easy to ward off evil spirits."
Song Shiming, "...Why do I feel like you are hinting at me!"
Chu Yanran stuck out her tongue, "Don't dare!"
Wen Xi said, "It seems that there are indeed dirty things in this sea area. You should try not to go into the sea to play."
Chu Yanran said bitterly, "It's really boring to come to the beach and not be allowed to play in the sea. Besides, this is a six-star hotel after all, so how can there be such filthy things, especially in the sea? It's really too weird."
Yue Yan said, "This kind of thing is commonly known as a water ghost. I don't know what kind of water ghost it is, but it's better not to provoke it. If it drags someone into the water and drowns, it's very rare for them to survive."
Chu Yanran sighed, "Alright, alright, I know, I cherish my life very much."
Yue Ling came over and said, "Could that man just now also have been dragged down by a water ghost? That's really too dangerous. We have to deal with it, or else there will be more unlucky people behind him."
Yue Yan said, "This is the ocean. Going there to look for water ghosts is undoubtedly as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack."
Wen Xi said, "Her actions don't seem to be completely life-threatening. Perhaps she has some needs. Let's wait and see. If she insists on staying in this sea area and continues to cause trouble, we will kill her."
Yue Yan nodded and said, "Yes, I agree."
"That's all we can do!"
Everyone's backbone is Wen Xi, they do whatever Wen Xi says.
As the sky gradually darkened, the thrilling incident that occurred in the sea in the afternoon did not affect the mood of the tourists. The beach bonfire party arranged by the hotel made people very enthusiastic.
There was also an open-air pool party where everyone was partying until midnight. No one noticed that as the sea breeze was blowing and waves were crashing onto the shore, a dark figure was walking onto the shore with staggering steps.
A couple was kissing in a dark corner, not noticing the arrival of the shadow.
"Excuse me, have you seen my child?"
A gloomy voice sounded in their ears, disturbing their interest.
The man turned around impatiently and said, "What child? You came here looking for a child? Didn't you take good care of the child? You are blind...Ahhh!"
When he saw the dark shadow in front of him clearly, he screamed with a pale face. He pushed his still dazed girlfriend away and turned to run away.
"Honey, please don't go. What's going on?"
The woman's confused and frightened voice sounded from behind him, but the man didn't care and just ran away.
"Is this how you treat your girlfriend?"
The eerie voice followed him like a shadow. When the man turned his head, he could see the ghost girl's swollen and pale face. He was so scared that his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
Grabbing his ankle with her cold hands, the ghost girl smiled creepily, "Such a scumbag doesn't deserve to stay on the shore!"
"No, don't! Aa ...
The man shouted in despair, his terrified screams were drowned out by the music in the hotel. He was dragged into the sea by the female ghost without any resistance and soon disappeared.
The next day, Wen Xi and his friends had a great night out, slept in, and got up to find something to eat. When they arrived at the lobby, they saw the hotel manager and staff surrounding a young woman, looking very troubled. Even the police were called.
The woman kept crying, "Wow, wow, wow, my boyfriend disappeared on the beach. You must be responsible for finding him for me. He must have been taken away by a female ghost."
The hotel manager wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "We've checked as much surveillance footage as possible. Your location is a bit hidden. We only saw the two of you go in, and in the end, only you came out. We couldn't see anything else."
The policeman also asked, "You mean there's a ghost? How do you prove there's a ghost? Or... is it that you have a ghost in your heart?"
The woman was stunned. "Are you saying I murdered my boyfriend? Why would I do that? We're getting married soon and we have a great relationship. I couldn't possibly do that. If I really did it, why would I call the police? How dare you question me?"
"We just have reasonable suspicions. Don't worry, we've already searched the nearby waters as you said."
"How can I be at ease? That's the ocean. If I really went into the ocean, how could I still be alive after such a night?"
As the woman spoke, tears began to fall again.
