Chapter 009 Are You Asleep?
Lin Xi asked where the hair dryer was. "Sister" pursed her lips and reluctantly found it for Lin Xi, placing it in front of her. Lin Xi pulled out another chair and asked her to sit in front of him. There was an outlet above the desk, so Lin Xi plugged in the hair dryer and began to blow dry her sister's hair.
Her behavior was indeed quite bold, and this was also because she relied on Chen Sang Ning. Otherwise, how could she take the initiative to touch other ghosts?
The younger sister was quite well-behaved. Lin Xi thought that this was probably due to Chen Sang Ning. The ghost that might have killed her sat obediently with her back to her and asked her to blow dry her hair. Lin Xi was not very good at judging the age of the child. She just thought that she was not much different in age from the "younger brother". She was thinner than her younger brother and had shorter legs. In order to match Lin Xi's height, the younger sister even adjusted the height of the chair. When she sat on it, her feet could not reach the ground.
Lin Xi touched her sister's hair, which was a little cold. She didn't know if it was because her sister was a ghost, so she was cold, or because she had just taken a shower and was still wet, so she was cold.
The hot wind blew on her sister's hair. Aside from her hair being colder than that of an ordinary person, she looked almost the same as an ordinary human. In fact, human hair is also cold, but when Lin Xi touched her own hair, it didn't feel so cold. When Shen Sang Ning was alive, her hair was not as cool as her sister's.
On the contrary, Shen Sangning, who became a ghost after death, had hair that felt similar to that of his sister.
This is probably what ghosts have in common.
After blow-drying her hair, the younger sister muttered a "thank you" and climbed onto the upper bunk. Just as Lin Xi had expected, she had come here to sleep on the lower bunk. Actually, the lower bunk was better than the upper bunk; not only did she not have to climb up and down, but it was also wider. But since Lin Xi was much taller than her younger sister, she had to let her younger sister sleep on the upper bunk.
The feeling of having a ghost sleeping on the upper bunk should be slightly better than having a ghost sleeping on the lower bunk.
Lin Xi sat in the chair until 8:30 when she felt the urge to go to the bathroom. Fifteen minutes later, she was sure she couldn't hold it any longer and was ready to go. The bathroom was right next to their room; just go out and through another door. Lin Xi immediately looked behind the door, and sure enough, there was a piece of paper taped to the back.
She quickly took out the paper and pen she had just put in her trouser pocket and copied it directly.
【Bathroom Rules:
1. The usage time shall not exceed 30 minutes.
2. Please save water.
3. Lock the door when using.
4. The only water that comes out of the tap is tap water.
┇
The bathroom rules are written in neat and tidy handwriting, similar to the ones in the bedroom. The first three rules are easy to understand and are also what the family needs to abide by. The first rule is that the use time should not exceed 30 minutes. This is because this is a big family of five. Although there is a master bathroom, it is generally used more frequently. If it exceeds 30 minutes, it will affect the use of other family members.
Saving water and locking the door are also normal. Except for the last point, the other three points are not difficult to follow.
Lin Xi quickly finished using the toilet, hesitating whether to wash her hands. After all, the fourth point above was written very horribly.
But as someone who values hygiene, Lin Xi couldn't go to the bathroom without washing her hands. So she turned on the tap, and sure enough, something unexpected happened. The trickle of water from the tap wasn't tap water, but bright red, sticky blood. Lin Xi used her hand speed to its limit, turning the tap on in an instant.
Lin Xi hesitated for a while and opened it again.
"Heh..." Lin Xi took a deep breath and slammed the faucet shut. After repeating this several times, the faucet finally flowed not with blood but with clear running water. Lin Xi washed her hands expressionlessly, not daring to wipe them on the hand towel hanging nearby. Who knew how many ghosts had used it? She didn't want to share a hand towel with another ghost.
And what if the owner of the hand towel is a mysophobia and comes back to settle the score with her?
Lin Xi wiped the water stains on her hands directly onto her pants. It wasn't that she wasn't particular, but she shouldn't be particular when she shouldn't be. Lin Xi walked out of the bathroom and saw her mother standing in the hallway with a strange look on her face. Her voice was a little hoarse: "Lin Xi, what were you doing in the bathroom? I heard you turn the faucet on and off several times."
Oh, this is the first rule that triggers the bathroom rule. I didn’t expect that the person who would enforce it would be the mother.
She replied expressionlessly, "The bathroom faucet is a little rusty, and the water that comes out is red. Mom, please find someone to fix it when you have time." Lin Xi simply brushed the matter over, then opened the door to the next room and walked in. It was 9:05, and the sister on the upper bunk leaned down and said to Lin Xi, "Lin Xi, it's time for us to go to bed."
"Okay." Lin Xi drew the curtains, lay on the bed, pressed the button on the bedside to turn off the light, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
As a young person today, who could possibly fall asleep after nine o'clock? Lin Xi couldn't do it, anyway. Luckily, before arriving at the livestream, it was already late in the real world, and with those few hours, Lin Xi had essentially pulled a full night's sleep. Adding to that his nerves were frazzled, Lin Xi fell asleep soon after.
She didn't know that at 9:30, her sister, who slept in the upper bunk, poked her head out again. This time, compared to the previous time before the lights were turned off, it was even more terrifying.
She called softly, "Lin Xi, are you asleep?" She grabbed the railing of the upper bunk, with half of her body hanging upside down and sticking out.
The younger sister slid down from the upper bunk like a puddle of mud, landed lightly on the ground, and stood beside Lin Xi's bed. She tilted her head, holding her mechanical pencil in her hand, and pressed the button of the mechanical pencil with her fingers. The "click-click-click" sound was particularly obvious in the darkness. Soon, the tip of the mechanical pencil came out a long way, and the younger sister approached Lin Xi holding the mechanical pencil.
She asked again: "Lin Xi, are you asleep?"
Lin Xi really fell asleep. The biggest stone weighing on her heart was gone, and she slept peacefully. The younger sister wanted to take a step forward and take another look at Lin Xi.
She didn't know whether she was asleep or not, but suddenly she saw a woman in a white dress sitting on the side of the bed against the wall, staring at her sister in the dark.
My sister choked and couldn't move forward. She just said to herself: "So you are already asleep. You are such a good boy. I want to sleep too." After saying this, my sister climbed up the stairs again and went to the upper bunk to sleep.
Needless to say, the woman next to Lin Xi was Shen Sang Ning. She sensed her sister's murderous intent towards Lin Xi, and she responded automatically and got out of Lin Xi's body. After confirming that Lin Xi was not in danger, Shen Sang Ning did not go back, but pulled open the quilt and got in. Lin Xi, who was sleeping, felt Shen Sang Ning's coldness and shivered unconsciously.
But she still felt a familiar body entering her arms, so she did not resist, but reached out and hugged Shen Sang Ning.
If Lin Xi was awake, she would probably understand that her sister's trigger mechanism was "good work and rest schedule, sleeping on time", that is, their rest time was 9:30 pm, if it exceeded this time, her sister might take action directly. Even if she was lying in bed at this point, if she was not asleep and was found by her sister, she would die.
Three people were killed by their sisters because they couldn't fall asleep. Many of them got away with it by relying on their acting skills, but there are very few who fell asleep as easily as Lin Xi.
But overall, there was still a group of people who successfully made it through the first day.
So far, there are only 15 people left alive. One of the requirements this time is to successfully survive in this world for seven days. It is simply unimaginable, in this case, can anyone really survive to the end?
Inside the livestream, viewers around the world fell silent as they watched the remaining fifteen livestreams. Through various methods, people confirmed the authenticity of the ghost story livestreams, and their global reach. While the rules for ghost story livestreams prohibit closing, modern smart devices have the ability to open multiple windows. Not only computers, but even mobile phones can pre-open small windows.
Even the TV can directly pop up a small window.
After Lin Xi entered the live broadcast room of Guiguitan, the time displayed was about 4:40. Now it was 9:30, and nearly five hours had passed. In the real world, it was from 12:00 at night to 5:00 in the morning. Many viewers couldn't wait to go to bed, but the vast majority of people were still in front of their phones, computers, and TVs. Although the App cannot be closed, because you can jump out and choose a new live broadcast room to enter, people with multiple smart devices often choose to open several live broadcast rooms to watch.
Not to mention the official side, basically all the live broadcast rooms are watching it.
They also used pop-up windows, asking residents to stay home and not go anywhere for the time being, and that the authorities were investigating the authenticity of the incident. At the same time, they matched faces and names, and played the photos and names of the domestic live broadcasters in a rolling manner, hoping that people who knew them could provide information to the authorities. In addition, they appealed to those who had "send information" to cherish their opportunities and use them reasonably, and suggested that they contact the official department directly to provide advice.
In addition, the official also instantly formed a team, one side was responsible for analyzing the situation in the live broadcast room, and the other side began to investigate the credibility of the matter.
After ruling out answers such as hackers and interference from other countries, the most unlikely answer emerged in front of everyone - the Rule Weird Talk Live Room, it is real.
