Chapter 107 Jinjiang First Launch

Zheng Jun paid the medical fee and left with heavy and sad steps. Looking at his back, Lame Brother sighed: "Alas, I didn't expect the first case of the day to be so sad. It's such a pity for the father and son. They were almost reunited. It's fate that makes people happy. Sun Shaohua really deserves to be killed!"

He turned to Bai Mian and asked, "Will Sun Shaohua receive the punishment he deserves?"

Bai Mian nodded: "Of course, there is a huge amount of evidence stored on his computer at home. With this evidence, even if a god came, he would not be able to exonerate him. He will definitely be sentenced."

"That's good," Lame Brother sighed, "It's a pity that those lost lives cannot be brought back. If there is reincarnation, I hope they can be reborn into a good family and live a healthy life without having to endure the pain of illness."

As the two were talking, the second fate master couldn't wait to sit down at the table. He was a male college student. He was holding a schoolbag in his arms and looking at Bai Mian anxiously with a frightened look.

Bai Mian poured him a cup of tea and comforted him, "Don't be afraid. Drink some tea and tell me slowly. What happened?"

The male college student took a few deep breaths, raised his head and said to Bai Mian: "Master, I have seen a ghost."

Bai Mian nodded, not feeling any turmoil. After all, this was not the first time she had dealt with such a matter. She said calmly, "How did it happen?"

The male college student showed an embarrassed expression: "It was me...I got it myself."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, pointing at the boy and talking about him.

"Is this guy stupid? If you invite the ghost, who else will the ghost go to if not you?"

"Young people nowadays are so bold and have no sense of awe at all. Auntie, let me tell you, there are some metaphysical things that you cannot offend!"

"Isn't this courting death by giving up a good life?"

Facing the accusations from everyone, the boy retorted loudly: "What do you know? I had my reasons! I was playing an escape room with a few friends at the time, and we had no choice but to perform the Yin-summoning ritual!"

Bai Mian frowned: "Why do you say you had no choice? Did someone force you at that time?"

The boy blushed, "That... that's not the case. We did it voluntarily. It's hard to explain. Let me tell you from the beginning. Master, my name is Shen Suifeng, and I'm a sophomore. I'm not very studious. I often skip classes and go out to play with my classmates. After all, I'm young. If I don't play now, when will I play?"

"I know a lot of classmates, almost half of the school are my friends. We often go on trips, camping, play script killing and escape room together. This incident happened when I was playing escape room. There were four of us that day. We went to a newly opened escape room store. The boss recommended a horror-themed escape room to us, which was exactly what I wanted, because I went there not only for fun, but also to pursue the girl I like. Just think about it, in a scary atmosphere, the NPC scares her and she throws herself into my arms, isn't this going to work?"

"With this in mind, I chose the secret room recommended by the boss. At that time, I didn't know how stupid this decision was. After entering, my eyes were always on Xiaoya. Oh, I forgot to mention that the girl I like is called Xiaoya. We talked and laughed all the way and solved many difficulties. After all, I am already an old player, and these are a piece of cake for me."

"The two wingmen I brought with me were also trying to bring us together. On the way, we met a few NPCs dressed as ghosts, but they were not that scary. Xiaoya had a lot of fun. I thought the atmosphere was good, so I planned to confess my feelings on the spot. At this time, we entered the last secret room."

"The last secret room was very strange. It was decorated like a funeral hall. I don't know if it was because the air-conditioning was turned on too high, but I felt cold as soon as I entered. There was a table in the middle of the room, and on the table was an urn. There was also a piece of paper next to the urn."

Shen Suifeng opened his schoolbag and took out a piece of paper. It turned out that he had brought the paper from the secret room. Bai Mian took it and saw that it read:

The door has been locked. To get the key, one must complete the Yin-summoning ritual as required: the first step is to open the urn and drink the ashes inside to let the soul of the deceased enter the body; the second step is to prick a finger and write one's name on the ground with blood; the third step is to turn off the lights, hold hands, and swear in unison in the dark - I am XXX, I am willing to offer my body for your use, please descend into my body...

There was a long string of oaths at the end. When the people around came over to take a look, their hair stood on end. Several ladies said:

"Oh my god, is this a game? Why does it look so real?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, if it were me, I would run away after seeing this oath. These kids are really honest. Why are they actually reciting it?"

"That's right, eating ashes, eh - disgusting!"

Shen Suifeng explained helplessly: "I have already said that I went there to confess my feelings. I didn't want to spoil Xiaoya's fun! I understand what you said. I am not a fool. If Xiaoya was not there, I would have walked away on the spot. But Xiaoya was right next to me at the time. If I didn't dare to do it, it would have seemed too cowardly. In order to prevent Xiaoya from looking down on me, I bravely completed the ceremony."

Bai Mian ignored his explanation and asked directly: "What happened next?"

Shen Suifeng recalled and said, "I was very hesitant at the time. I called my boss for help, and he assured me that they made up the ritual and I shouldn't take it seriously. If we don't dare to try, we can choose to end the game now, but then we won't get the gift for completing the game."

"I couldn't say I would give up in front of Xiaoya. To save my face, I called on everyone to perform the Yin-summoning ritual. Xiaoya agreed. The other two brothers were originally here to be my wingmen, so of course they listened to me."

"So, I started the ceremony in fear. First, I picked up disposable paper cups and distributed one to everyone. Then I poured some mineral water, which was provided by the store. Then I bravely opened the urn and looked at the ashes inside. There was some gray-black powder inside, which looked very much like real ashes. At this time, I was worried, so I called the store again. The store assured me again and again that this was a prop they made."

"I picked up the ashes and sprinkled some into everyone's cups. Then we raised our cups and drank it all. Of course, I didn't dare to taste it. After drinking the ashes, we took the needle on the table and pricked our fingers, squeezed out the blood and wrote our names. Finally, we read the oath. We read it the same as on the paper. There is nothing to say about it."

"However, I took advantage of this opportunity to hold Xiaoya's hand. Her hands are so soft and small, and she has a nice fragrance, hehe."

Speaking of this, Shen Suifeng laughed, as if he saw the scene at that time again.

Bai Mian coughed lightly: "Ahem, let's get to the point."

Shen Suifeng became serious and continued, "After we finished reciting the oath, the lights in the room came on and a key fell from the ceiling. It must be controlled by an organization. In short, we passed the level."

"After we passed the level, we returned to the front desk. Because I was the first person to pass the level today, I received a special gift - ninety-nine roses. I confessed my love to Xiaoya with the flowers on the spot, and the result was..."

Shen Suifeng paused for a moment and said awkwardly: "In the end, she rejected me. How strange! I thought she liked me too!"

Bai Mian went straight to the point: "What do you mean by encountering a ghost?"

Shen Suifeng then got back to the topic: "Oh, yes, after the confession that day, we parted awkwardly. I thought it was over, but it was just the beginning. From that day on, a series of strange things happened around me, which made me realize——"

Shen Suifeng and Bai Mian moved closer and whispered, "The ritual we performed that day might have really attracted ghosts..."
