Chapter 041 Chapter 41
Yuan Ye's words "keep it a secret" made A Yan and Zhu Jue realize that something was wrong at the same time.
What do the two of you need to keep secret?
Ah Yan's eyes were confused. "We?"
"We have nothing to keep secret."
She asked politely: "Did you misunderstand something?"
Yuanye looked at the two of them and was confused for a moment before he understood.
Acting, right? The last time he transformed into a female ghost, these two people acted like this too, pretending they knew nothing.
Okay, he got it.
This is something that “can only be understood, not expressed in words”!
After all, the comic convention is not a very safe place. There are surveillance cameras everywhere in the convention center. Communication between each other can be done through mutual understanding, and it is difficult to express it clearly.
Yuanye showed a slight smile at this moment.
"Yeah, I misunderstood."
Ah Yan and Zhu Jue should have felt relieved after hearing Yuan Ye say this, but the "I understand" expression on his face made them both feel a little overwhelmed.
A Yan was silent, Zhu Jue was silent.
So what exactly did you misunderstand, Brother Ye?
Ah Yanzi recalled it carefully. To be honest, she and Juejue had only been alone with Yuanye a few times, right?
The whole male dormitory had a dinner together, and this comic exhibition was also a collective action of the whole team.
To be honest, it was the time when Ding Ling called me on campus and I saw Yuan Ye turned into a female ghost.
That time, the two of them did nothing and just pretended not to see it.
Yuanye also misunderstood this? The question is what did he misunderstand?
Ayan and Zhu Jue's silence was obviously regarded by Yuanye as "tacit consent".
Ah Yan hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Actually, what I mean is that it is normal to have a preference for clothing."
"Clothes themselves do not distinguish between genders, whether men's or women's clothing, they are products that are added by people of the time to create demand and supply." Zhu Jue said.
"After all, clothes are what we need for food, shelter and transportation. Clothes are what cover our bodies. Whether in ancient my country or abroad, men and women have always had the habit of wearing skirts. Men wearing pants and women wearing skirts are products that were divided by colored glasses in different periods of society. Everyone has a desire for beauty. Aesthetics is personal, common and free."
Ah Yan thought, she had said so much, now Yuan Ye should understand
Do you understand what I just said?
But unexpectedly, Yuanye looked at the two of them with a touching expression, "Ayan, Jue Ge, you are so nice."
Although he knew that the two of them were deliberately avoiding the topic of identity, he could hear that Ah Yan's words came from the heart, and the two of them did not look at others with "tinted glasses" at all.
Faced with Yuan Ye's genuine emotion and understanding at this moment, A Yan remained silent.
"Whether you are a boy or a girl, you must protect yourself when you go out." She spoke slowly.
"Yeah." Yuanye nodded emotionally.
"Are you interested in backstage? Do you have a favorite Rolls? I can help you take a photo and get an autograph."
A Yan shook her head. She watched anime series while eating, but she would not follow the live-action series.
"It's okay, just go ahead and do your work, don't worry about us, we can just go shopping on our own."
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and the comic convention was to end at five o'clock. Even the backstage staff had to leave the venue around six o'clock.
"Are Brother Fan and the others here?" Yuanye asked.
"He came. He said he was at the IP booth of 'The Swordsman'. Sister Lin Lu's company is going to make a comic adaptation of 'The Swordsman' and he came to see how popular it is. But he left after not staying for long because he and his wife wanted to take their children to the aquarium." Ah Yan said.
Lin Fan had posted a message in the group before, and I showed it to her. After they thought about it, they decided not to join in the fun at the other company's booth.
Yuan Ye's performance today has ended. He thought about it, sent a message to Mr. Xiao, and asked Ye Ping'an whether the live broadcast had ended.
"Do you want to have dinner together today?" he asked.
Ah Yan thought for a moment and said, "It's not going to work. Lin Fan and the others are not here, and I think everyone will buy something. My roommate has a lot of free food, and it's not convenient to bring food with us. Besides, this place near the convention center is probably going to be crowded after the show."
Another thing is that the people in the two dormitories are not very familiar with each other. Even if she sits at the same table, and Chu Shen comes to adjust the atmosphere, I think it still won't liven up the atmosphere. It may make everyone more awkward. There is no need for this, and socializing is not popular nowadays.
Yuanye thought about it and said, "Okay. I'll go find Mr. Xiao. You two can have fun. Ask everyone in the group when they are ready to gather or split up. By the time we get there, there will probably be too many people and the subway will be packed."
We are not children anymore, we should stick together wherever we go.
Yuanye went to find Xiao Qingnang, and after he left, A Yan started searching for the "Magical Girl Show" on his phone.
“#Hina City CG Carnival# I saw magical girls, the teachers were so realistic, I wanted to cry.”
"The highlight was the moment when the witches chanted the spell. We really saw the magic surge and cried. Thank you to the organizers for letting us realize our dream in this way. Thank you!"
"Magic? What magic? What am I missing?"
"See the magic? How many actors did Bincheng CG Carnival find today to create so many hot searches?"
"First it was the rich woman, then the Chinese chef, and now there's the magic riot. I have to say you guys in the 2D world really know how to have fun!"
According to Ah Yan's observation, although the magical girl's performance has a certain degree of popularity, it is not as "explosive" as Chu Bingbing's previous money-spending and Chu Shen's golden egg fried rice.
One of the important reasons is that the "magic" only appears in an instant. Although many people were holding up their mobile phones to record videos at the time, the video at that moment looked more like a "live special effect."
At this moment, many people have questioned whether the organizers are deliberately hyping up the event, but some people are also grateful to the organizer Yuan Meng.
Various topics related to the comic exhibition continued to be on the hot search list, and even many "three-dimensional blue aliens" were briefly attracted to come and watch the excitement.
Rich woman throwing money around? Take a look at the melons!
Chinese Chef Boy's Golden Egg Fried Rice? Really or not? Take a look!
Magical girl transformation? Realistic version? Come and learn more!
The two of them carefully clicked into the related topics and searched around. It was very good. Apart from that, the only other things that attracted attention were celebrities invited to certain booths or some weird cosplayers.
Just in case, Ayan and Zhu Jue each asked everyone in the dormitory group to confirm what they were doing at the moment.
【Gu Jiasui】:[photo.jpg][photo,jpg]
Ah Yan burst out laughing when looking at the photos sent by Suinsui. In the photos, Chu Bingbing was frantically buying "notebooks". She had bought a suitcase before to hold so many peripherals, and now she got a rather square bag from somewhere and was choosing notebooks with a conflicted look on her face.
Ah Yan took a careful look and thought, well, not much was bought, so it shouldn’t cause any trouble.
【Easy to know】:[photo.jpg]
Huh? Yi Zhi also posted a photo. Wait, why did she post a photo of the flower bed? Where did she go?
Ah Yan was stunned when he saw the photo sent by Yi Zhi. This, this doesn’t seem to be in the carnival. Did Yi Zhi sneak out or got lost?
[Ayan]: Yizhi, are you no longer in the convention and exhibition center?
[Yi Zhi]: There are too many people, it's stuffy, let's go out and get some fresh air. There is a flower market nearby, so come and have a look. When you are ready to go out, just call me, and we will meet at the subway.
Going to the flower market is indeed a hobby of agricultural college students and wood-type mutants.
Ah Yan felt relieved as he thought he wouldn't cause any trouble by going to the market.
On the other side, there were replies in the group chat of the boys' dormitory 414. Yuan Ye and Xiao Qingnang were about to merge. Ye Pingan had just finished the live broadcast and was strolling around. Lin Fan was not there.
A Yan and Zhu Jue confirmed a circle of people with halos, and then she suddenly realized that there was one missing.
Where is Ding Ling?
Where did Ding Ling go? Why hasn't she appeared in the group?
Thinking of Ding Ling's special status compared to others, A Yan's expression began to gradually distort.
There are so many people at this comic convention, and the atmosphere is so masculine, there should be no problem for Ding Ling, the Ghost King, to be here, right?
Ah Yan touched the bell bracelet on his hand and suddenly felt a little nervous.
She remembered that when they came in the morning, several people separated. At that time, Ding Ling seemed to see something and left in a hurry.
Did Ding Ling see the official acquaintance she mentioned, or did she go to do other things?
Ding Ling didn't reply for a long time. Ah Yan looked at the time and asked the group if they wanted to leave an hour earlier to avoid the main group. They could also go back to the school to have a meal.
It was easy to know that Chu Bingbing and Gu Jiasui had both replied with an OK. Ah Yan "patted" Ding Ling in private chat, but she still didn't reply, as if she was bothered by something.
Ding Ling was indeed entangled.
Of course, to be more precise, the person in front of her was very difficult to deal with.
Since she followed her roommates to this comic convention that she didn't know anything about, Ding Ling's world view and outlook on life have been constantly refreshed.
It turns out that do today's young people dare to imitate the images of Buddha, Bodhisattva, Taoist Patriarch and Heavenly Lord in a process called "cos"?
Compared to the era she lived in before, this era is the era where "evil spirits and demons are running rampant"!
There was a huge crowd at the comic convention, and when Ding Ling saw a "zombie image", she couldn't help but follow it.
The man was wearing the court robes from the movies, his face painted white, he had court beads around his neck, a crown on his head, and a piece of yellow talisman paper stuck on his face. He jumped forward again and again with his hands stretched out.
This is obviously not the zombie that Tinker Bell is familiar with, but a re-created image from modern supernatural works.
Living zombies, flying zombies, bloody zombies... but none of them are dressed so neatly. When the drought demon appears in the world, the land will be barren for thousands of miles. This is no mere talk.
But even she, the King of Ghosts, had to admit that the imagination of living people was actually more terrifying, and such an image was indeed a bit scary.
This young man with the image of a zombie is accompanied by a friend dressed as a Taoist priest. The fake Taoist priest holds a whisk in his hand and wears clothes that are neither monk-like nor Taoist-like. There are Tai Chi Yin-Yang fish printed on the yellow background, and the front is covered with the Heart Sutra. He also holds a bowl in his hand as if begging for alms.
Ding Ling followed the two men. Instead of being annoying, they looked very happy. They came over with bowls to beg for alms. Other tourists who were watching threw coins into the crowd.
She walked around the two of them to make sure they were just prank cosplayers and then left. It had been less than half a year since Ding Ling was dug out of the grave by the archaeological team. Although she had acquired a lot of modern knowledge, she was still far behind these young people who had lived for more than 20 years and had been exposed to modern entertainment production materials for 20 years.
for example--
The "monster" wearing animal ears and a fox tail, Ding Ling almost called out on the spot to report that a monster had appeared here, and it was a half-monster that failed to transform.
Ding Ling became more and more worried along the way. Although she could distinguish people by smell, there were so many people that she needed to get closer.
There were those who looked like monks, Taoist priests, foreign Onmyojis, witches, and some Western wizards. Looking at their attire that was very different from the traditional style of the Xia Kingdom, Ding Ling even wondered for a moment whether she would be surrounded by the enemy.
Ding Ling took many photos of people with suspicious images. She did not report these photos to the team without permission to avoid being laughed at. Instead, she used her mobile phone to search for images one by one to confirm that they were images from movies, animations and games. She also confirmed one by one that there was no special aura before she felt relieved.
From morning to afternoon, Ding Ling quietly "followed" many cosplayers to complete their own marking and confirmation.
"Ninety-seventh, confirmed anime image, no problem." Ding Ling lowered the danger level of the "demon exorcist" in front of him, and then heard about the "magic girl chanting a spell and seeing magic power."
She hurriedly asked someone and rushed to the stage performance area, but the one performing on the stage was a group of internet celebrities performing opera. Their singing was soul-stirring and there was not a bit of magic in it.
After Ding Ling asked the people nearby, someone said, "Oh, isn't that a gimmick created by the organizer? Everyone said it was a special effect."
This person shared with Ding Ling a video recorded on the spot. Ding Ling watched it and found that she could not distinguish between magic and special effects.
But at this moment, Ding Ling suddenly felt relieved.
Because she saw A Yan and her boyfriend in a corner nearby.
Regardless of whether this magical event is true or false, she can rest assured knowing that the two of them are here!
This is Ah Yan!
Only now did she have time to take a look at the messages in the mobile group. Previously, because she had to open the browser and Taobao to search for images, she turned on the message do not disturb.
【Ding Ling】: I'm fine. Let's gather together when we leave.
Ding Ling sent back a message. She did not disturb the young couple without authorization. She was a member of the special case team and received special official resources. She voluntarily investigated here, but she could not require others to be like her.
High standards should be set for yourself, not for others.
"Fuck, a female ghost, so realistic, it's a pity it's broad daylight or I'd be scared to death."
"Oh my god, is there a sweeping robot hidden under this girl's feet?"
"It should be one of those scooters. The skirt is long enough that it doesn't get caught inside. But it feels too much like something out of a horror movie!"
"Which ghost movie is this from? The image of the female ghost in white looks familiar, but I can't remember where she is."
"I can't remember it either, but this kind of long-haired female ghost seems to be quite common in movies and animations."
Suddenly hearing the discussion, Ding Ling abruptly looked in that direction.
It was a young woman in a long white dress that trailed the floor.
Her entire body from the shoulders down was covered by a snow-white dress, but it didn't really look like a dress; it looked more like a bed sheet with a hole in the middle.
The pale face was even paler than the one with fake white isolation cream, and there was not a trace of blood on the bluish face.
Her wet black hair hung in front of her face, and her arms were hidden under the sheets. Apart from a little bit of her neck and a white face among her black hair, no other body features could be seen.
Her limbs and body are not visible, and the wind is blowing her long skirt that looks like a bed sheet. She looks light and floating. Her feet cannot be seen moving, and she is just drifting forward in a straight line, which looks very "ghostly".
Many people took out their mobile phones to take photos and videos at this moment. Compared with those funny things like the quantum Buddha holding an electronic merit box, the image of the female ghost in front of them was a perfect reproduction of human fears.
Everyone exclaimed in admiration, "This makeup is really amazing. Is she wearing a micro-monitor or something? Someone must be controlling the glider under her feet, right?"
"This is real performance art. I declare this teacher the winner of today's horror and supernatural competition!"
"Did you feel a chilly breeze when the female ghost teacher passed by? Oh my god, was she secretly fanning herself with her hands?"
"Hahaha, it's very possible. I think the bed sheets are moving in the wind!"
Unlike the other onlookers around him who were laughing and talking, Ding Ling was completely tense.
She followed silently with her cell phone in hand, and was mistaken by others as someone taking pictures, so she did not attract any attention.
Ding Ling walked forward, silently glancing at the crowd who were also watching the excitement, hoping that others would not come any closer!
Because this cosplayer in the image of a "female ghost in white" really has the aura of a ghost.
It's not the kind of negative energy that you get when you pass by a cemetery or accidentally get exposed to.
But it is real, soaked in yin energy.
It's possession! The girl in front of me is probably possessed by a ghost.
Now, both her floating state and her body shrouded in the aura of evil have fully confirmed this point.
Ding Ling's eyes were serious, this was no joke.
Especially since there are so many people at this comic convention, she can't be sure what the purpose of this ghost's possession is.
Dangerous seedlings must be nipped in the bud!
Most people just took a close-up or zoomed in video and photos and sent them to their friends without continuing to pursue this female ghost teacher.
Urgent! Where is she going? What does she want to do? Where should I stop this ghost-possessed person?
Ding Ling chased the ghost in white all the way, watching her white clothes fluttering as she passed the performance area, went around the food area, and then went to the booth area and the stall area...
It was like he was just playing with her! He was doing nothing but running around. Ding Ling was beginning to wonder if she had leaked her Yin energy and she had noticed it.
This female ghost in white kills everyone in seconds wherever she goes, attracting countless attention.
Ding Ling really felt that the other party did this on purpose. With the crowd gathered, she couldn't do anything.
This reminded Ding Ling of the time when she was first dug out. She was full of curiosity about everything outside and didn't listen to the instructions of the special case team and ran around everywhere, drifting wherever she wanted, deliberately trying to shake off or sneak around the team leader who was in charge of her at the time.
Ding Ling at this moment: I’m sorry, team leader.
I was wrong.
While chasing the female ghost, Ding Ling noticed that the ghost seemed to be lost or something, and after floating around several areas, she arrived at the performance area.
At this moment, Ding Ling's cell phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Ding Ling's pupils shrank.
It’s Ayan!
Could it be that A Yan also discovered this female ghost?
Ding Ling answered the phone while continuing to follow the footsteps of the female ghost.
"Hey, Ayan."
"Hello, where are you? It's almost four o'clock, the comic convention is about to end and we have to leave." Because Ding Ling had only replied with a short message before and there was no message now, A Yan simply lowered his head and made a phone call.
She was talking on the phone in one hand and holding Juejue's hand with the other. She was startled when she saw the female ghost in white coming towards her.
At the same time, A Yan was the first to see the halo above Ding Ling's head as she answered the phone about three meters away from the female ghost.
She looked at Ding Ling, and then at the female ghost in white who was sandwiched between the two parties.
Ah Yan realized something was wrong.
Ding Ling, she wouldn't chase after an ordinary female ghost cosplayer.
In other words, could this person with disheveled hair and covered in bed sheets be a real female ghost?
This female ghost in white without a halo on her head is not Yuanye's transformed image.
Although I don't know why a female ghost suddenly appeared in the comic exhibition, it can't be that she was summoned by some kind of pen fairy game at a booth, right?
Ah Yan put aside his nonsensical thoughts for the moment and focused on the current situation. So...Ding Ling was chasing the female ghost to deal with it? Then he couldn't go with the other roommates. I'm afraid he would have to deal with it the same way as the last time in the antique street.
Ah Yan thought so, so he picked up his phone and said, "The comic exhibition is about to end, do you want to go with us?"
Ding Ling on the other side was stunned for a moment. Ah Yan obviously saw the female ghost in front of her. What she meant by this sentence was...
Before Ding Ling could figure it out, she saw the female ghost in white stop in front of her.
She stopped!
I saw the female ghost in white trying to escape at the speed of light. At this time, Ah Yan and I were blocking her from the front and back. What were we waiting for? Was there any better opportunity than this?
Ding Ling stepped forward and restrained the female ghost in white with her Yin energy. She was wearing all black today, and at this moment, she grabbed the female ghost in white, and her face was already pale, so the style of the painting was quite consistent.
Seeing Ding Ling catch the female ghost so easily, A Yan immediately felt relieved.
"Then I'll leave this place to you and we'll be leaving now?" A Yan said.
Ding Ling nodded and watched the two people walk away.
The female ghost in white who was restrained by her did not move, and seemed silent at this moment. Ding Ling suddenly realized that the words that A Yan had just said on the phone might not be directed at her.
"The comic convention is about to close, will you come with us?" At that time, Ah Yan was facing the female ghost in white. Although it seemed that he was answering the phone, he was actually talking to the female ghost!
What this meant was to ask the female ghost whether she wanted to go with them.
The white-clothed female ghost stopped instantly, turned around and fled in her own direction. She was afraid! She didn't want to go with Ah Yan and the others!
There was a gleam in Ding Ling's pupils. Did this female ghost in white really notice something?
In order to avoid A Yan's threat, he would rather fall into his own hands.
What does this mean? Think about the horror behind it! And the red-dressed female ghost who suddenly disappeared last time!
Hiss! Is this really the aristocratic family that is ruthless against ghosts? Their power is so great!
