Chapter 6

Translator: Melimeli, Editors: Pyrrhae, XD, Iced

Gu Kaifeng turned his bedside reading lamp to its brightest setting while saying: “If you’re scared, just sit here for a while.”

After speaking, he casually put the book with a scary name,《The Death of Living Corpses》, under his pillow and took out his phone. Bowing his head over the phone, he proceeded to mess around with it. It didn’t look like he planned to sleep at all.

Lin Feiran pursed his lips and crossed and uncrossed his legs several times. After a while, he fretfully walked to the door. Opening it, he cautiously stuck out his head to look at the corridor beyond.

The corridor was long and quiet. With two broken lamps, the lighting was somewhat inadequate. Though seeing clearly was not a problem, the visual effect was very eerie. It should also be mentioned that the bathroom was at the very end of the corridor.

Lin Feiran had slept from six o’ clock to a little after eleven o’clock, and he drank water and congee before sleeping. Yet, in all this time, he hadn’t gone to the bathroom because he was continually being scared by ghosts. So, he currently felt an urgent need to pee.

What do I do, there’s no way I can ask Gu Kaifeng to go with me to the bathroom...... I’m going to lose so much face it’s better to let the ghosts scare me to death! Lin Feiran thought, grinding his teeth and stomping his foot. He clenched his teeth and inhaled deeply, then took a big step into the corridor!

However, after taking just three steps outside, he began to recall the visions from moments ago, each horrifying scene quickly replaying in his head like images on a motion lamp. The bloody eyeball that rolled on the floor, the ghost’s cracked and withered face, the mass of bobbing ghostly heads...... Lin Feiran felt his stomach sink; he was so scared he almost pissed himself. He took three steps, then two steps, then panicked and hastily ran back into the dorm room.

What do I do, aaaaah! Lin Feiran shouted silently in despair. What if he suddenly sees ghosts while peeing in the bathroom, what can he do ah?

Lin Feiran thought that he absolutely didn’t have the guts to pee in the middle of a crowd of ghosts.

That’s why he couldn’t refrain from imagining the tragic scene of him going to pee only to end up running back to the dorm room in fright with his ass bared to the world, screaming madly.

Maybe he would even trip himself over the pants that would be bunched around his ankles...... If that were to happen then he really wouldn’t be able to live as a human being anymore — he should just jump off the building and kill himself, Lin Feiran thought grievously.

“What’s with you?” Gu Kaifeng looked at Lin Feiran who was standing near the door in an unnatural posture with his legs clamped together.

With a red face and a rapidly beating heart, Lin Feiran asked, “You, do you want to go to the bathroom?”

Gu Kaifeng bluntly and honestly answered the question, “No.”

Lin Feiran ground his teeth and asked using a very small voice, “Then, do you want to go with me......”

After saying this, Lin Feiran was so embarassed he wanted to hang himself on the spot.

“In my dream,” Lin Feiran began, “I saw the dorm room completely filled with ghosts.”

The words flew out surprisingly smoothly, maybe because they were said under the pretense of a dream. Lin Feiran took hold of this opportunity and quickly elaborated. “There were around fourteen to fifteen ghosts. They were playing music in the dorm room, and there was also a DJ called MC Duan Tou; he was shouting and after that the other ghosts disco-danced, and there was even a ghost whose eyeball popped out!”

Gu Kaifeng listened patiently, then gleefully said, “In this small head of yours, what do you think about everyday?”

Lin Feiran ground his teeth. “This is......”

The word “real” was stuck again in his throat. Lin Feiran had no choice but to change his tune and say: “But this dream feels very realistic.”

Lin Feiran found out that the rules’ restrictions should depend on whether or not he’s telling the truth. If he first says that it was a dream, then even if he recounts his experience in its entirety he still would not be silenced. On the other hand, even the very simple words “there are ghosts” cannot be spoken.

Gu Kaifeng commented, “I heard that before they built this school, this property was a graveyard.”

Lin Feiran stared resentfully at him.

I was already very scared before, do you still have to add oil and vinegar!

The corner of Gu Kaifeng’s lips rose; his smile was a little mischievous. He consoled him, “It was really only a dream. No one would disco-dance on their own grave, don’t you agree?”

Lin Feiran wasn’t consoled at all. “......”

But they really did disco-dance on their own graves ah! I’m also very desperate ah!

While talking, they arrived at the washroom. Lin Feiran stood in front of the urinal and dropped his pants a little, revealing his small, round, fair buttocks. He then pulled out his you-know-what.

Gu Kaifeng put his hands in his pajama pants pockets and moved to stand a natural four or five steps away from Lin Feiran. A pair of dark and deep eyes calmly gazed at Lin Feiran from an expressionless handsome face. But, when Lin Feiran turned his head to stare back at him, he felt that there was something inexplicably wrong with Gu Kaifeng’s behavior.

Lin Feiran’s face flushed red and he turned his head to look away. However, he found he couldn’t get himself to pee.

Lin Feiran forced himself to say, “I can’t do it when somebody’s watching me......”

Gu Kaifeng made a sound of acknowledgement and moved back two steps. “I will be at the door.”

Lin Feiran began to let the ‘water’ flow while frightfully calling out, “Gu Kaifeng?”

He was afraid that if he wasn’t vigilant, Gu Kaifeng would mysteriously disappear!

Gu Kaifeng leisurely replied, “I, your servant, am here.”

Lin Feiran: “......”

Recognizing that Lin Feiran likely needed to hear his voice to feel at ease, Gu Kaifeng settled on reciting an ancient poem.

“......I, Su Shi, went boating with my friends in the river near the Red Cliff. A fresh cool breeze was blowing, too gentle to ripple the water......”

Listening to Gu Kaifeng’s pleasantly deep voice, Lin Feiran’s ears indescribably felt hot.

Ultimately, Lin Feiran listened to 《First Ode on the Red Cliffs》 and his dilemma was solved in a very elegant way!

After he finished using the bathroom, the two of them walked back to the dorm room side by side. Because Lin Feiran felt rather awkward, he kept several centimeters of distance between them. On their way to the toilet and back to the dorm room, their bodies never touched.

As they walked, their footsteps echoed in the empty corridor.

Suddenly, the strand of yin energy that had lingered on Lin Feiran’s body all day travelled again from the sole of his feet and, following the curvature of his spine, leapt into his eyes. This chilly feeling was also there the first two times he saw ghosts, but because it wasn’t very pronounced, Lin Feiran hadn’t paid too much attention to it. However, when it appeared now for the third time, Lin Feiran suddenly realized that the last two incidents shared this similar feeling......

This was a pattern!

The nerves in Lin Feiran’s brain were stretched taut like a bowstring as he struggled for a second to choose between “simply closing his eyes and blocking out the sight” or “enduring his horror until the end.”However, he found out that it was already too late to simply close his eyes——in the blink of an eye, the corridor was stuffed full of ghosts!

The ghosts were all deathly pale. Some were missing arms or had broken legs; some were badly mutilated or had the frightful, horrible faces of the dead. They were sitting or standing, forming a line on each side of the corridor. Each held a book they got from who knows where, deeply engrossed in their studies. If their appearances weren’t so horrifying, they would look very much like students who were frantically cramming for their final exams......

In this short moment, Lin Feiran also heard some ghosts complain.

——”Room 508 is too noisy with their shouting; they’re disturbing the residence. Let’s go and talk to them!”

DON’T COME AAAAAAH our room is already packed with ghosts! Lin Feiran’s scalp felt like it was on pins and needles and, in a panic, he rushed and stretched his arm in Gu Kaifeng’s direction, grabbing a warm and dry hand.

The moment he touched Gu Kaifeng, the world became quiet.

Gu Kaifeng tilted his head to look at Lin Feiran. Raising the hand that was being grasped firmly, he asked, “What’s this?”

“It’s nothing.” Lin Feiran awkwardly released his hand. Though the ghosts were no longer in sight, his head was still reeling with thoughts of ghosts and he absent-mindedly explained to Gu Kaifeng, “I just grabbed the wrong thing.”

Gu Kaifeng raised his eyebrow and asked, “Then what did you want to grab?”

Lin Feiran’s face fell. “I didn’t want to grab anything!”

Gu Kaifeng gave a low laugh and didn’t pursue the matter further. Reaching their room he pushed open the door, took off his slippers and lay on the bed.

Lin Feiran, still acting like a little wife, joined Gu Kaifeng and sat on his bed. Using his hands that were cold from fear, he patted his cheeks repeatedly and forced himself to calm down. Shortly after, he began to sort through the day’s sequence of events in his head.

On his deathbed, Grandpa said that he wanted to pass something on to me. He also said that he himself couldn’t control it. Lin Feiran grasped his chin and pondered deeply: If the inheritance was something that could be seen or touched, it wouldn’t make sense for Grandpa to not be able to control it. Furthermore, after saying this, he told me to not be afraid of ghosts as before they died ghosts were also humans. Gu Kaifeng couldn’t see them, but I could see them, then could it be that the thing Grandpa wanted to give me was......

A cold, terrifying realization suddenly struck his mind like lightning. He raised a hand and lightly touched a slender and fair finger to his eyelid, gently stroking it for a moment.

The Yin Yang eyes!?

In other words, for all these years, Grandpa could really see ghosts? Lin Feiran sat rigidly on the bed, remembering details from his childhood with his grandpa and the ghost stories that he would tell him. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the answer was obvious.

However, Lin Feiran thought, slightly tilting his head as he stared suspiciously at Gu Kaifeng who was lying on his pillow while playing on his phone, there was still one thing that was very strange......

Why do the ghosts disappear when I touch him ah!Also, the effect seems to be time limited, only lasting a few minutes? But maybe touching anybody would have this effect: so long as you touch a living person, the ghosts disappear for a few minutes? Lin Feiran anxiously rubbed his chin as he made baseless guesses. He really wanted to grab someone to test it out, but it was past eleven o’ clock and there was nobody outside.

Lin Feiran was at a loss. Gu Kaifeng put down his phone and stretched, asking, “When are you going to sleep?”

“I’m not sleepy, I slept a lot during the day.”

Lin Feiran very slowly ground his butt on Gu Kaifeng’s bed, making an indentation several centimeters deep, as though declaring ownership over that part of the mattress. He was fearful that Gu Kaifeng would chase him back to the top bunk, leading to him seeing ghosts again.

Gu Kaifeng stared at Lin Feiran’s slowly moving butt with a piercing glare: “......”

Lin Feiran benevolently said, “You go to sleep, I’ll watch over you.”

Gu Kaifeng was completely expressionless, but inside he was bursting with laughter.

This scaredy-cat must be too scared to sleep alone tonight.

“Then, come lie on the inside first.” Gu Kaifeng pointed to the half of the bed that was up against the wall and said smoothly, “If you come later, you’re going to wake me up......”

“Alright!” Lin Feiran was overjoyed. Before Gu Kaifeng could even finish talking, Lin Feiran had kicked off his slippers and climbed onto the bed. Lying on his side, his small and thin body pressed tightly against the wall. As if to prevent Gu Kaifeng from changing his mind, Lin Feiran used a soft, flattering voice to proclaim, “I’m not taking space at all. I’m going to stay on my side right against the wall.”
