Chapter 13: Say one more word and I'll kill you!

"What!"

"The anomaly has appeared again?!"

"Who disappeared?"

The crowd panicked and looked around, and soon someone exclaimed, "Jia Liang is gone!"

"Jia Liang! Jia Liang!" Several colleagues who had a good relationship with him shouted hastily.

"Don't shout! Do you want to attract the anomaly?" Wang Ziteng roared, and the continuous disappearances had almost drained his remaining sanity.

He was able to remain calm compared to ordinary people because he had seen these strange powers from his cousin before and was mentally prepared.

In addition, he was very envious of his cousin and also wanted to become a spirit master, so when he entered the anomaly, besides fear, there was also a hidden expectation supporting him.

But people are always curious, and when a real dragon appears in front of you, the first emotion that surges from the bottom of your heart is often fear.

"Wang Shao, what should we do? I don't want to disappear!" Li Feifei grabbed Wang Ziteng's sleeve with teary eyes, making Wang Ziteng even more irritated.

"You ask me, who do I ask?!"

At this time, a calm voice suddenly overwhelmed the whole scene, and it was Fang Xiu.

"Two to three minutes."

"What two to three minutes?"

"The interval between people disappearing is two to three minutes." Fang Xiu calmly said, "To be precise, it should be two minutes for women and three minutes for men. Little Zhao, the security guard, disappeared three minutes ago, and then Wang Xiaoli disappeared, and after two minutes of Wang Xiaoli's disappearance, Jia Liang disappeared. It seems that the killing rule of this anomaly is to kill one person every two to three minutes. If the inference is correct, someone else will disappear after three minutes of Jia Liang's disappearance."

"Killing people according to time? Damn it! How do we avoid it?" Wang Ziteng's eyes were red, and his emotions were vaguely losing control.

Fang Xiu ignored him, turned and walked towards the darkness.

Everyone was shocked in an instant.

His good friend Zhao Hao shouted first, "Xiu Ge, what are you doing? You are risking your life!"

Fang Xiu didn't even look back and said, "Of course, I'm looking for a way out. Do you want to sit and wait for death here? There are still eight people left here. According to the rule of one person disappearing every two to three minutes, all of us will die in about twenty minutes. We might as well take a chance."

"Fang Xiu! You stop for me!" Wang Ziteng suddenly shouted, "Didn't I just say that no one can act rashly? Do you know that if you violate the taboo of the anomaly, all of us may die with you? You are just an ordinary person. Do you know the anomaly?

A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

Fang Xiu stood still and suddenly turned around. A pale and expressionless face appeared before everyone's eyes, like a lifeless corpse, without any sign of life.

As Wang Ziteng was stared at by this face, he suddenly hesitated.

Then, a voice devoid of any emotion came out of Fang Xiu's mouth: "Say one more word, and I will kill you before the ghost appears."

Despite the lack of any emotional inflection in the words, they carried an indescribable chill. Hearing this, Wang Ziteng even felt a strong sense of death surrounding him.

Looking into Fang Xiu's calm eyes, Wang Ziteng suddenly realized that he was serious - saying one more word would really mean death!

What kind of eyes were they!

As the son of a wealthy family, he had a wide circle of friends and had even seen the eyes of a murderer for certain reasons. But even the pressure from a murderer's eyes could not compare to the calm gaze of Fang Xiu.

Wang Ziteng's feeling was not wrong - the eyes of a murderer and the eyes of someone who had been killed eighteen times were truly different.

Seeing Wang Ziteng falter, Fang Xiu turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Zhao Hao saw this and hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and following Fang Xiu.

"Wang Shao, what should we do?" Wu Dahai asked, trembling.

Wang Ziteng's face turned pale and then red. He did not dare to vent his anger in Fang Xiu's presence, but now that he was gone, his anger was rising.

"What should we do? If they want to die, let them go! Two hicks who don't even know what a spirit master is, how dare they not listen to my command!"

"But I don't think Fang Xiu is the type of person to seek death. Shouldn't we follow them and see what's going on?" Wu Dahai suggested.

Wang Ziteng's anger rose again. "Follow them? No way! Even if I die, even if I'm killed by a ghost, I won't go!"

Before he could finish his sentence, a scream interrupted him.

"Ah! Someone else has disappeared!"

Wang Ziteng's liver trembled. He looked around and saw that there were only five people left, including himself. He immediately changed his mind and said, "Quickly! Follow them!"

Fang Xiu and Zhao Hao moved forward in the dark corridor, with flashlights in their hands. They walked for a long time but still couldn't find the stairs leading down. Normally, they would have found the stairs at the end of the corridor after just a few steps, but today the corridor seemed like a bottomless pit, with no end in sight.

"Xiu Xiu Ge, something's not right, why haven't we reached the stairwell yet?" Zhao Hao trembled, curled up behind Fang Xu, looking like a scared bird.

"Shh, be quiet."

Fang Xu suddenly stopped walking and stared intently into the depths of the hallway.

At the end of the hallway, a faint green light suddenly appeared, like the glow of an emergency exit sign in the darkness, eerie and unsettling.

When Fang Xu saw the light, his brow furrowed.

This light was exactly the same as the ones in Qing Shan Mental Hospital.

An incredible suspicion formed in his mind, and he hastened his pace towards the light.

When he fully stepped into the light, he found himself in a narrow and cramped corridor, the ceiling and walls covered in darkness and blood stains, and old benches placed every few meters.

This place felt like a hospital corridor from decades ago, with walls as gray as death and the floor not made of the usual marble, but of gray-white concrete.

This was Qing Shan Mental Hospital!

"Xiu Xiu Xiu Xiu Ge! Am I hallucinating? Where are we? Weren't we supposed to be in the company? Why does this look like a hospital from a horror movie?" Zhao Hao's frightened voice came from behind Fang Xu.

Fang Xu's heart stirred.

Zhao Hao could see the mental hospital too?

Could it be...

Fang Xu reached out his hand and touched the surrounding walls, feeling the cold and rough texture.

His pupils suddenly contracted.

Sure enough!

He had entered the mental hospital, and this time it was no longer an illusion, but a physical reality!

Could it be that the mental hospital, like those living anomalies, had met certain conditions and entered reality?

Could this be the so-called Anomalous Domain?

Fang Xu guessed that the mental hospital, which had previously appeared as a holographic projection, had now overlapped with reality, with the sales office embedded within it.

No wonder they couldn't see the mental hospital as before, it was because they were already inside it.
