Hearing Lin Miaomiao's cry for help behind him, Chi Mu didn't know whether he should look back.
【4: When walking at night, if someone calls you from behind, don’t look back.】
【5: Please don’t ignore Lin Miaomiao, she is a very cute girl. 】
Because these two rules are conflicting, but they are both correct, Chi Mu was stunned for a moment.
He had thought about this situation before, so he returned home quickly in the evening to avoid someone calling him on the road.
But what I didn’t expect was that after I got home, I encountered a paper man knocking on the door.
This forced Chi Mu to immediately take the paper man to the river at the west end of the village and throw it into the river, leading to his current situation.
Chi Mu kept thinking about the two rules.
If they can appear at the same time, there must be a way to crack it, otherwise it will be like a BUG.
At least up to now, Chi Mu has participated in so many ghost story copies, and he has never encountered a situation that cannot be resolved due to the conflict between two rules.
"Wait, Rule 4 says that there is a 'person' behind me calling me... What if Lin Miaomiao is not a person?"
Chi Mu was shocked and frightened by his own thoughts.
This is definitely a reasonable explanation. If the person calling behind him is not a human, then there is absolutely no problem in turning back.
"But Lin Miaomiao is just an ordinary little girl, how could she not be a human?"
Chi Mu's back was already wet with sweat. He had been standing stiffly for nearly a minute, and Lin Miaomiao kept calling out to him from behind.
Taking a step back, assuming that Lin Miaomiao is indeed not a person but "it", then rule 4 can be completely overturned and we can look back.
But in this case, Rule 5 can also be assumed.
The one calling out from behind Chi Mu now was not Lin Miaomiao, but 'it' that deliberately disguised itself as Lin Miaomiao's voice and tone of voice.
Now if we look back, it will also be against the rules.
"Fuck, my CPU is about to burn out. Should I turn back? If not, I should go home right now, right?"
Chi Muxin made up his mind and decided not to look back.
After all, it's almost nine o'clock now, and it's raining so heavily.
Lin Miaomiao is just a ten-year-old girl. How could she still be outside at this time?
Therefore, the "Lin Miaomiao" behind him was most likely "it" in disguise, deliberately trying to trick Chi Mu into looking back.
After realizing this, Chi Mu resolutely walked forward without intending to look back.
But Chi Mu immediately heard the voice from Qin Jianghe.
“Chi Mu, based on the progress made by the Chosen Ones from other countries, those who did not turn back all met with misfortune.
The Lin Miaomiao who is calling you from behind is the real Lin Miaomiao, but she is in a state that does not seem to be a human. Please turn back and rescue her. "
After Qin Jianghe finished his reminder, the only sound in Chi Mu's ears was the rain again.
He was startled and no longer had any worries in his mind. He immediately turned his head to look.
On the muddy road, Lin Miaomiao was grabbed by the arm by Li Tiezhu. She kept struggling and was unwilling to go with Li Tiezhu.
From time to time, she looked back at Chi Mu, calling on Chi Mu to save her.
"Boss Chi......."
Lin Miaomiao's eyes were glistening with tears and filled with the desire to survive.
Chi Mu was stunned, then rushed forward and pulled Lin Miaomiao away from Li Tiezhu's hands, looking at Li Tiezhu with a vigilant expression.
"Silly Zhu, why are you holding Miaomiao? Where are you taking her?!"
As he spoke, Chi Mu protected Lin Miaomiao behind him, took a step back, put his hand in his pocket, and touched the dagger he had just picked up from the river.
Li Tiezhu is very likely one of the murderers!
Li Tiezhu looked at Chi Mu, who had a fierce look on his face, tilted his head and grinned, and yelled: "I, I want to take Miaomiao to see the kitten... That cat can do backflips."
Cats can do backflips?!
Chi Mu was dumbfounded. He looked at Li Tiezhu in amazement and was speechless after hearing his words.
Suddenly I thought that Li Tiezhu was in a crazy state and what he said was completely unreliable.
"Look at you, you big-headed ghost. Which cat can do a backflip? Go back to your daddy. You scared Miaomiao!"
Chi Mu sternly scolded Li Tiezhu to go home.
"Mu, Brother Mu, why are you so mean to me... The cat at Widow Chen's house can really do backflips. If you don't believe me, come with me and see for yourself. I didn't lie to Miaomiao."
Li Tiezhu looked aggrieved immediately after being yelled at by Chi Mu.
Chi Mu looked at Li Tiezhu and then at Lin Miaomiao.
He squatted down and asked Lin Miaomiao why she was still outside so late.
"Boss Chi, didn't I tell you this afternoon that I didn't have money to buy a thermometer? I made some medicine for my dad, so I came to repay you...
Daddy is asleep now, so I want to come to you. Miaomiao is not a little girl who only makes empty promises! "
Lin Miaomiao's eyes were red, and it was obvious that she was frightened by Li Tiezhu just now.
Repay me?!
Chi Mu then recalled that when Lin Miaomiao came to buy a thermometer for Lin Zhang in the afternoon, she did say that she wanted to repay him.
At that time, Chi Mu just thought that the girl was just talking casually, but he didn't expect that she would actually mean it.
"Miao Miao, even if you want to repay me, you can't come out so late. It's raining heavily now, and it's already so late. It won't be too late to come to see me during the day..."
Chi Mu rubbed Lin Miaomiao’s little head.
"But, but... Isn't it always at night to repay? Can it be done during the day?"
Lin Miaomiao blinked, her little eyes full of confusion.
Chi Mu was even more confused.
What exactly is this little girl talking about as a reward? Why can it only be done at night?
Moreover, Chi Mu violated Rule 4. He turned back when Lin Miaomiao called him, but now nothing happened.
According to Qin Jianghe, it was the chosen one who did not look back who encountered an accident.
So Lin Miaomiao is not a human at all now? !
Chi Mu's brain was unable to process this huge amount of information. Now Li Tiezhu was still standing beside him and had just mentioned the cat in Widow Chen's house.
This is a very important clue.
Widow Chen is already dead, but Li Tiezhu knows that her cat can do backflips. Regardless of whether this is true or not, it is enough to prove that Li Tiezhu knows Widow Chen's family very well.
"Miao Miao, why don't you go home first and come see Boss Chi tomorrow?"
"Oh well."
Lin Miaomiao lowered her head and went back alone holding a tattered umbrella.
Chi Mu stood up and looked at Li Tiezhu. He still did not relax his vigilance. He put his hands in his pockets and held the dagger tightly.
"Shazhu, take me to see the cat that can do backflips at Widow Chen's house..."
