Because she was really bothered by the scream, Yin Zhu didn't actually fall asleep with Jing Gui. Instead, she quietly focused all her attention on her ears, trying to hear what happened next.
Soon, the sound of a baby crying drifted on the wind.
This is a rule that Yin Zhu once wrote.
5. If you hear crying at night, please be kinder to younger residents; everyone grows up eventually.
However, because these were the rules written by Yin Zhu, she did not immediately connect the crying with the ghost story. Instead, she was shocked that there were actually residents with children living in the community. Could the child have been born locally?
However, the baby's crying did not come from room 402 in building 2. The room where the baby was crying seemed to be coming from building 4, which puzzled Yin Zhu.
Considering the time frame, Yin Zhu has been gone for several days. Even if new residents with children move in, it wouldn't be surprising.
Yin Zhu quickly found a plausible excuse for the strange crying.
Besides the things everyone already knows, Yin Zhu also knows one more thing about supervisors—supervisors have nothing to do with whether they are chosen ones or not; you can be a supervisor even without talent.
This conclusion was drawn based on Bai Hai's situation.
The Mirror Ghost probably knows this too, and as a strange creature, it can't be said to be completely without any abilities.
If we quantify Mirror Ghost's abilities and turn them into a game NPC or player-selectable character with a visible skill panel, Mirror Ghost's character panel would look something like this:
【Name: Mirror Ghost】
[Species: Bizarre]
[Gender: Mixed]
[Active Skills: ① Mirror Travel: Can appear on any reflective object. ② Mimicry: Can disguise oneself as any person or object looking in a mirror, causing minor psychological damage. ③ Realistic Illusion: Can create illusions that give the person looking in the mirror a tactile sensation, causing significant psychological damage.]
[Passive Skills: ① Immaterial: Lacking a physical body, unable to inflict physical attacks on others, and also unable to be hit by physical attacks. ② Telepathic Communication: When speaking, only the targeted person can hear.]
[Items: None.]
[Affiliation: New Citizen Temporary Apartment]
Of course, reality doesn't have the same quantifiable metrics as games, and the attack power of the Mirror Ghost varies from person to person.
While it's possible to joke about Yin Zhu having "maximum mental defense," the reality is vastly different from mere data. In reality, situations that completely defy "common sense" often occur. For example, Yin Zhu might cry while reading a novel, or she might be unmoved even when she sees a dead person in person.
Human emotions and the brain are complex things that are difficult to quantify easily.
There is still a barrier between the second and third dimensions.
Yin Zhu didn't wait for any follow-up from the robber. She closed her eyes and lay there quietly, drifting off to sleep.
I woke up at nine in the morning.
Yin Zhu checked the time on her phone, rubbed her slightly hungry stomach, and tilted her head to ask Jing Gui, "I'm going to the temporary apartment to freeload breakfast, are you coming with me?"
"What time is it, and you're still thinking about food?"
"Do you provide meals?"
The human and the ghost stared at each other, but in the end, the mirror ghost backed down first: "Let's go, let's go, let's go and come back quickly, you promised me. Honestly, humans are such a hassle, they have to waste time on things like eating every day."
"Haven't you started sleeping too?"
Yin Zhu hadn't forgotten that, in fact, the Mirror Ghost didn't need to sleep before; it could stay awake all night. But when it was woken up early this morning, Yin Zhu was surprised to find that the Mirror Ghost was showing signs of drowsiness.
It's becoming more and more like a human.
Yin Zhu recalled that it seemed that ever since the Water Ghost ate the Water Ghost at the kindergarten, the Mirror Ghost's black mist humanoid form had become increasingly solidified.
"Speaking of which, can you still only stay in the air for one second without a carrier?" Yin Zhu asked on the spot since she had thought of this question.
When moving from different carriers, the mirror ghost is essentially detached from the carrier for a split second.
As if he had anticipated that Yin Zhu would ask this question sooner or later, Jing Gui answered the question almost instantly: "Actually, I can now appear in reality for more than an hour, but there is no need."
"Speaking of which, there should be water molecules in the air, right? Water can reflect light, so why can't you just sit on it?"
In fact, Yin Zhu had long forgotten all her knowledge of chemistry, physics, and geography. Her impression of air was limited to "air is a mixture of 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 0.94% rare gases, 0.03% carbon dioxide, and 0.03% other substances." Although water vapor is probably only 0.03%, something is better than nothing.
Upon hearing Yin Zhu's words, Jing Gui was silent at first, then clearly speechless: "I was on the reflected object for hunting purposes. Tell me, whose eyes can see the water molecules in your mouth?"
"Uh...yes." Yin Zhu touched her nose, almost forgetting this crucial point.
They chatted as they headed to the temporary apartment for a free meal, and before the waiter threw them out, they made a quick getaway back to Jiayuan Community to start another day of antics.
As soon as Yin Zhu entered the community, she encountered a resident she had never seen before.
“Be careful, this guy lives in building 401 and goes out hunting every day. He’s ruthless.” Jinggui quietly told Yin Zhu everything he knew. “She doesn’t have a job and is a homeless person, but she only kills homeless people. So far, she hasn’t offended any supervisors.”
