The stairwell fell into utter silence.
Only the sound of shallow breathing remained.
Jiang Nuo looked up and down, her expression gradually becoming hesitant.
"I don't think I can tell the difference."
It's over.
" Nuonuo... I really am!"
Si Yan was above, grabbed his arm. "How can you not tell? I hate him."
Si Yan on the left quickly pulled Jiang Nuo over, "Don't touch Nuonuo!"
Jiang Nuo was almost torn apart by these two.
"Stop!"
He scratched his ear, climbed a few steps, and looked down at the two identical Si Yan.
Touching my left eye as I pondered, I realized for the first time how difficult it was to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
Didn't they say fake ones have weird smiles? Well, here I am smiling.
" Si Yan, if you kill the fake one, I'll be able to tell the difference."
Jiang Nuo decided to pass this problem on to her boyfriend.
So the two Si Yan blurted out almost simultaneously, " Nuonuo doesn't recognize me?!"
Then they glared at each other, "Don't copy me!"
Jiang Nuo: "..."
He watched helplessly as the two Si Yan started fighting, their strength evenly matched.
Jiang Nuo covered her ears in worry and sat on the steps waiting for Zhen Si Yan to finish.
It's unlikely that we'll lose.
He looked upstairs with a sense of melancholy, wondering if both of them were fake, and if there was another one in the room.
Looking up, he saw only his own shadow reflected in the glass at the corner.
Jiang Nuo instantly stood up alert, the red rope falling into her hand, coldly watching the two still locked in combat.
My first thought was that both of them were fake.
So he stopped worrying and not only joined the brawl, but also distributed the damage evenly between the two.
As a result, both of the Si Yan became hesitant and afraid of hurting Jiang Nuo.
Jiang Nuo grabbed the one on top, her fingers tightly gripping his throat, her eyes cold, but when she saw the aggrieved look on his face, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
So realistic...
The action of striking paused, and even the tight grip loosened slightly.
But when he turned to look at the other one, his expression was genuine.
" Nuonuo... it hurts."
Si Yan trembled slightly as she stroked Jiang Nuo's cheek, her phoenix eyes reddening, and a tear sliding down her cheek.
"You don't recognize me... and you still want to kill me."
Jiang Nuo pursed her lips, "Don't speak."
If she keeps acting cute, I'll really soften! I really can't tell the difference!
He looked up at the glass at the corner again.
It was indeed just his shadow.
Why do these two look so alike, like looking in a mirror?
Mirror.
Jiang Nuo suddenly released Si Yan, who was choking her, and compared the two of them again.
Si Yan, above, touched his face, looking extremely aggrieved. He glanced at the person on his left, his murderous intent growing stronger. The two loathed each other and neither would tolerate the other, so they started hurting each other again.
" Si Yan, stop."
Jiang Nuo's eyes were dazzled by the sight, and she scolded him in a low voice.
So the two of them stopped at the same time and looked at Jiang Nuo with a wronged expression.
"If I kill him, Nuonuo will be able to tell me apart."
The Si Yan, spoke with an air of self-righteousness.
"I think I already know who the fake one is."
Jiang Nuo suddenly said this, drew his dagger, and his smile turned somewhat malicious.
Si Yan above was clearly delighted, " Nuonuo, then hurry up and kill him..."
Before he could finish speaking, the dagger had already plunged into his body.
Jiang Nuo's strike was imbued with Spiritual Power, and the movement was incredibly swift; the monster didn't even have a chance to react.
"Alas." Seeing someone who looks exactly like you... a ghost, suddenly collapse and die is quite a shock.
Si Yan silently touched her stomach.
He was happy that his wife recognized him.
How did Nuonuo recognize her?
Si Yan took his hand, gently shook it, and pulled him into her arms without saying a word.
Jiang Nuo carefully sheathed the dagger and patted Si Yan's back reassuringly, "He is you in the mirror."
"Ah...?"
Si Yan realized what was happening and murmured, "Yes, there's a large mirror in our room."
He sounded a little flustered. "Would there be another you?"
Jiang Nuo made a face at him, "Actually, I'm not really."
"I don't believe it." Si Yan scoffed, then lowered her head for a kiss. "You are the real one, I would never mistake you."
"So, are we still going to look for ghosts?" Si Yan asked.
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them simultaneously saw a shadow flash past outside the glass door of the cabin, it looked like... Jiang Nuo.
"Chase."
Jiang Nuo reacted immediately, and the two of them chased after each other side by side.
The shadow was fast and left before them. Jiang Nuo knew that he couldn't catch up with another version of himself over the same distance.
Even Si Yan is just another version of herself, so it's conceivable that the two in the mirror can't hurt each other.
Only others can.
Si Yan also understood this point, and exchanged a glance with Jiang Nuo, showing perfect understanding.
He quietly left from the other side, as if he had given up the chase.
Jiang Nuo continued running, but her speed had noticeably slowed down.
Sure enough, the other Jiang Nuo also gradually stopped and began to deliberately slow down his pace, trying to lead them over.
The distance between them gradually closed, but they maintained a speed that Jiang Nuo was certain could not catch up with.
At this moment, Si Yan ran out from the other side of the hut, her Spiritual Power transforming into a blade that shot straight at the other fake Jiang Nuo.
They had prepared for a fierce battle, but to their surprise, the fake Jiang Nuo collapsed to the ground and vanished completely with just a light attack.
Jiang Nuo: "..."
He fumed, "I can't accept that I look like a noob in the mirror."
Si Yan hadn't expected this either, and tentatively asked, "Could this just be an illusion, and the person in the mirror should be..."
Jiang Nuo realized, "A diversionary tactic?!"
The two of them turned to look at the villa's gate at the same time.
Under the moonlight, the entire cottage seemed shrouded in endless darkness.
The second floor of the small house is the girls' room.
Given the current situation, the three girls are sleeping in the same room to prevent any further accidents.
Yang Xiaoxiao and Zhu An had both gone to bed early. Yang Xiaoxiao was wearing a face mask, humming a song while watching TV, and it was even more relaxing than the nights when nothing major happened.
The reason is simple: with Brother Jiang around! No demons or monsters dare to get close!
Jin Jin had been washing up in the bathroom, finally came out, silently walked to the bed in the middle, and suddenly threw herself into the quilt and cried softly.
Yang Xiaoxiao's face mask fell off in fright, and she sat up in confusion, " Jin Jin, what's wrong?"
"I'm scared, boohoo..."
Jin Jin cried harder and harder, "What happened today was all beyond my comprehension... I'm so scared."
This was indeed something that couldn't be avoided. Yang Xiaoxiao sighed and comforted her, "Aren't you leaving tomorrow morning? Just get a good night's sleep tonight and treat it all as a nightmare."
"And Brother Jiang is there too, he's awesome!"
Jin Jin trembled, choking back tears as she said, "But... but none of this happened before he arrived."
Yang Xiaoxiao frowned, finding those words unpleasant.
"Before he arrived, both Zhu An and I had encountered ghosts, but it had nothing to do with him."
