Horror Game: What to Do If You're Too Handsome

After placing the hairpin on the female ghost, An Xinghe pulled out the scissors again.

Though he pitied the female ghost's plight, one thing was another—he wouldn't show any mercy.

An Xinghe pressed the scissors against the female ghost's neck and said:

"You're not something that should exist in this world. He Song Sheng forcibly snatched your soul back here back then."

"You've suffered a lot too."

"Today, I'll send you to your end."

The female ghost heard An Xinghe's words and stood motionless, waiting for his move.

An Xinghe's fingers twitched, and the scissors neatly sliced through the female ghost's neck.

After finishing this, An Xinghe found the Eight Trigrams Formation, activated the mechanism, and cleanly burned everything in the Cantonese Opera Troupe to ashes.

He also managed to escape from the videotape and return to the company in the real world.

By now, the company's walls were plastered with all kinds of eerie photos, grim and chilling!

An Xinghe didn't mind. He walked back to his computer on his own.

The computer was playing another video.

The voice in the video was a girl's—and it was An Xinghe's colleague, A Qi!

"Welcome to Escape from the Spirit Realm Point! I'm A Qi!"

"We've come to Ci Xiu Village, where suicides keep happening one after another! Let's find out what secrets are hidden here!"

"Everyone, take a look—this is the Ghost Detector specially made by our show's Ghost Sister."

"Today, I'll take you all to..."

After that, the video crackled with static, and the rest couldn't play.

When An Xinghe finished watching and looked up, he realized he had unknowingly entered the world of the videotape again!

He opened the door in front of him and stepped into one of the houses in Ci Xiu Village.

The last ghost was right here in Ci Xiu Village!

This was also the third segment of the original Ghost Tale of Hong Kong.

It told a tragic story.

A girl named Lin Zhishan, who grew up in an orphanage, was forced into selling her body as an adult.

Lin Zhishan had two daughters, Lin Kexin and Lin Wanyan.

Lin Wanyan had been frail since childhood.

Lin Kexin was even more unfortunate, suffering from diabetes since she was young and needing insulin support.

To support her two daughters, Lin Zhishan had to put on heavy makeup every night and go out to work.

But the neighborhood gossip crushed her in the end. She wore red clothes and red high heels and jumped to her death.

When the police arrived, they sent Lin Kexin to the hospital, but she eventually died from her injuries.

Lin Wanyan's whereabouts were unknown.

After death, Lin Zhishan turned into a female ghost, endlessly wandering Ci Xiu Village. This was the last evil ghost An Xinghe had to deal with.

As soon as An Xinghe entered the room, he heard a little girl's laughter.

Accompanying it was the entire room covered in bloodstains that read "Play with me."

This female ghost must be Lin Kexin.

An Xinghe smiled:

"You want uncle... big brother to play with you? No problem, what do you want to play?"

A table suddenly appeared in front of An Xinghe, with Ouija props on it.

An Xinghe's eyes lit up:

"Ouija, I'm familiar with this!"

He placed his index finger on the Small Bowl of the Ouija. Across from him, a cold, pale finger stretched out as well.

An Xinghe didn't look up but muttered:

"Little sister, look how thin your hand is. You need to eat more! Have you been drinking milk and eating papayas properly?"

Lin Kexin: "???"

Chapter 25: You've Got Me Stumped

The Ouija game An Xinghe played with Lin Kexin was a variant of the traditional version.

It was also a more classic style.

First, spread a yellow cloth on the table, covered with all kinds of characters.

Then, place a bowl upside down on the table, sized to match the characters.

Then the players place their fingers on the bottom of the bowl and ask the Ouija a question, and the bowl moves to hover over the characters.

String those characters together, and you get your answer.

This time, though, the Ouija is directly played by Lin Kexin, the ghost herself.

It's essentially a perk that lets players ask questions and learn about the story ahead.

The Ouija game officially begins.

An Xinghe smiles gently and asks:

"Given that df(1/x^2)/dx = 1/x, find the value of f(1/2)."

Lin Kexin freezes.

What kind of question is this? How is she supposed to answer that?

An Xinghe waits a moment, and when he sees Lin Kexin isn't moving the Small Bowl to write an answer, he says:

"Maybe that question's a bit hard for you. Let me switch to something simpler."

"Point A on the edge of a Flywheel with radius r=0.6m has a motion equation s=0.1t cubed. When point A's velocity v=30m/s, what is point A's Tangential Acceleration?"

Lin Kexin's tiny head is filled with huge confusion.

What kind of question is this again? Is this something a human would ask?

Shouldn't you be asking about ghosts and stuff?

An Xinghe clearly feels Lin Kexin's finger on the bowl start trembling, but he keeps going:

"Don't know that one either? Let me try another."

"Lu Xun once wrote: There are two trees in front of my house, one is a Jujube Tree, and the other is also a Jujube Tree."

"What emotion does this sentence express from the author?"

Livestream Room.

[Haha! An Xinghe is such a troublemaker! I'm dying of laughter!]

[You're the first person I've seen asking math questions during Ouija!]

[Stop it! This isn't Ouija at all! It's a classroom Q&A!]

[You've left Lin Kexin speechless.]

[Please stop torturing the kid! She's about to lose it!]

[Is this a question a carbon-based lifeform would ask?]

Just like the comments say, Lin Kexin straight-up quits.

After all, she was only a seven-year-old kid when she died, so having a little temper is perfectly normal.

An Xinghe hears Lin Kexin's voice coming from all directions:

"Big Brother, you're Astonishingly Handsome, and your vibe is so gentle, so why do you always ask such weird questions?"

An Xinghe snorts dismissively:

"You call this weird? I only asked general course questions—I didn't even get into the specialized ones!"

Lin Kexin falls silent instantly, and the creepy atmosphere completely dissipates.

An Xinghe looks around and spots a little girl's faint silhouette in the corner.

He walks over, crouches down, and asks:

"Kexin?"

The little girl nods.

"Where's your mom, Lin Zhishan?"

A dazed look fills the little girl's eyes as she murmurs:

"Mommy... Mommy... don't know... I want Chocolate..."

An Xinghe reaches out his hand to her:

"Kexin, how about I take you to find your mom? And I can give you Chocolate too!"

The [Astonishingly Handsome] skill works its magic again! It makes Lin Kexin's affinity for An Xinghe extremely high.

She almost without hesitation places her little hand in An Xinghe's palm:

"Big Brother, you're so nice. I want to be your wife when I grow up."

Livestream Room.

[Someone! Call the cops! There's a kidnapper abducting a kid here!]

[What are you yelling about upstairs! Like there are cops in a Horror Game!]

[An Xinghe isn't abducting a kid—he's abducting a ghost!]
