Chapter 30 Let me touch it
After Liu Haoyu finished speaking, he saw a person who started in fifth gear, like a god of the race track on Mount Akina.
He looked as if he had seen a ghost.
This also confused Liu Haoyu a bit.
“Is it that serious? I don’t eat people.”
Qin Liu, who was beside him, couldn’t help but complain.
“He’s probably scared by your near-death appearance?”
“Impossible, I was sleeping soundly, how could I have scared him.”
“Then I don’t know.”
The man and the ghost were clearly confused.
However, there was still some distance to go down this small road. If they walked, it would take at least ten minutes, which further solidified Liu Haoyu’s idea of buying a car.
Now that the red gate’s lock has been released, it should be much easier afterwards.
And after making all the preparations, he can directly face the red gate.
And… the red gate was originally the door to the basement of the haunted house. This means that the black coffin he saw in the illusion might also be in that basement?
Liu Haoyu was lost in thought, but it was just an illusion and there was no concrete evidence, so it could only be a guess for now.
“Although it’s only been one night, it feels like I haven’t been home in a long time.”
On the road, Qin Liu couldn’t help but sigh.
“I also want to sleep well now, I’m really sleepy.”
Hearing Qin Liu’s voice, Liu Haoyu turned his head and saw the young girl couldn’t help but yawn cutely.
Her drowsy eyes and exhausted appearance made people want to pick her up.
And, she had been floating all along…
This means that her little feet were not touching the ground, and there were no calluses on them.
If he were to put his hand on her little feet and knead them, wouldn’t it feel amazing?
“What are you looking at…”
Qin Liu’s sensitive little radar immediately noticed Liu Haoyu’s gaze. Following his gaze, she quickly focused on her feet, and then, the young girl quietly moved half a meter away.
“Looking at white stockings.”
At this time, Qin Liu’s eyes turned into this expression again.
“Don’t get yourself worked up here.”
“You’re slandering me, I just have a pure and beautiful love for white stockings, how can that be called getting worked up?”
To be honest, seeing Liu Haoyu’s shameless appearance, Qin Liu really wanted to step on his face with her feet.
But thinking that this would only make him more satisfied, she suppressed her desire to attack.
“By the way, what happened when your soul left your body?”
Since Qin Liu was staying in Hongyu, she didn’t know where Liu Haoyu’s soul had gone or how it had returned.
Facing Qin Liu’s question, Liu Haoyu pondered for a moment and said.
“What happened…”
His mind drifted back to Qin Liu, who was lying in the coffin wearing a red wedding dress.
Oh my! It was so close!
“Huh? Why are you slapping your thigh?”
Hearing the young girl’s confused question, Liu Haoyu said with a straight face.
“It’s just regret that I couldn’t keep the red gate despite trying my best.”
“Tsk… I always feel like you’re lying.”
Qin Liu mumbled.
At this moment, the two had returned to the haunted house.
Liu Haoyu quickly climbed to the young girl’s room on the second floor, re-lit several incense sticks on the shrine, and then lay down on the bed.
Seeing Liu Haoyu lying on her bed so at ease, Qin Liu wanted to say something, but the words stuck in her throat.
The constant “merit +1” sound in her head made her expression a little subtle.
But in the end, it could only turn into a sigh.
“Alright, I should get used to it.”
Normally, Liu Haoyu would also return after staying up all night, but this was the first time Qin Liu had seen him collapse onto the bed so tired.
Qin Liu naturally thought that this man had fought fiercely with the red gate for three hundred rounds, which made him so exhausted. Because of this, she decided not to pursue the matter of the bed today.
Also, this house… it seems to be a bit better and livelier with someone else in it.
Qin Liu thought silently, then slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep while floating in the air.
——-
“Ugh…”
In his dream, Liu Haoyu got up from the ground. He looked at the dark environment around him and couldn’t help but say.
“It seems to be a dream again.”
However, there was no trace of the red gate in the dream, which meant that smashing the tombstone at dawn today should have some effect.
Moreover, he had also smashed Deng Shuyuan’s tombstone. If all went well, he should be safe.
Then why was he having this dream if he didn’t dream of the red gate?
Liu Haoyu was a little confused. He tried to move forward, but it was so dark that he couldn’t find his direction.
Until the scene in front of him became more and more blurry, as if there was fog.
This situation made Liu Haoyu feel a sense of familiarity.
The blue mist was like returning to the underworld.
In the darkness, a lantern lit up.
Seeing this faint light, Liu Haoyu’s soul felt a tremor, and he chased after it like a moth to a flame.
Soon, he saw a young girl holding a lantern appear before him.
“Qin Liu.”
Hearing Liu Haoyu’s words, the lantern-holding girl slowly turned around.
In her hollow, vacant gaze, there seemed to be a hint of confusion and bewilderment.
“A living person cannot come to this place… Are you dead?”
The girl’s voice was still as calm as ever, without any ripples or fluctuations.
Moreover, Liu Haoyu noticed that her JK sailor uniform was neatly worn, not inside out anymore.
“I’m not dead.”
Liu Haoyu stood beside Qin Liu.
“Where are you going?”
“To guide the deceased across the river of the underworld.”
As she spoke, this dazed and cute Qin Liu lifted the lantern in her hand and placed it in front of Liu Haoyu.
The faint yellow firelight illuminated Liu Haoyu’s face.
And in this firelight, Liu Haoyu saw countless souls wailing and struggling.
This lantern… was fueled by souls?
Before Liu Haoyu could get a closer look, Qin Liu had already retracted the lantern.
“If you’re not dead, please leave this place. This is not a place for living people.”
After Qin Liu finished speaking, she was about to leave. Seeing her receding back, Liu Haoyu still called out to her.
“Wait a moment.”
“Hmm?” Qin Liu stopped and tilted her head, “Is there anything else?”
Looking at Qin Liu’s vacant eyes, Liu Haoyu slowly let out a breath of turbid air.
The man’s calm demeanor seemed as if he had made a decision.
After preparing himself mentally, he took a step forward and said to the seemingly very dazed (and easily) cute Qin Liu.
“Can I touch your white stockings?”
“…?”
