The fog was so thick.
When Qin Manjiang saw her, she was still standing beneath that tree, with the Mermaid Fountain behind her.
Frail and deathly pale, her skin was even whiter than her filthy white dress.
As if sensing his gaze, she slowly turned her head. Qin Manjiang's reflection appeared in her grayish-white eyes.
"..."
Was she really Nie Yunzhen?
Qin Manjiang raised his phone and spoke into the call that was still connected:
"Is that you?"
The woman, so frail that a gust of wind seemed capable of blowing her away, nodded.
It really was her...
She had inexplicably cleared a ghost story, shot up to First Seat, and even called this dead person's phone.
Qin Manjiang had imagined what she might look like. Frankly, before hearing her voice, he had even thought she would be a man.
After crossing the road and reaching her side, Qin Manjiang became even more aware of how unusual she was.
Her expression was unlike most people's. It seemed that after going so long without making any expressions, she had completely lost the ability to do so.
The flesh on her face was lifeless, hanging pale and slack. Together with her grayish-white eyes, it almost looked as though she would dissolve into the thick fog.
For a moment, Qin Manjiang even fell into a daze.
That face... though she was nothing but skin and bones, it somehow looked vaguely familiar.
Only when the icy mist crept down his neck did he abruptly snap out of it.
"Come with me for now."
Qin Manjiang spoke.
This woman gave him the impression that she might stop breathing at any moment.
It was best not to let her linger in such icy fog. Qin Manjiang hailed a taxi and took her toward his home.
