Although Su Zimo felt that this nightmare world was odd, he didnât say much because the trainersâ task seemed to proceed very smoothly. He just continued to act like a normal child, obediently following Cheng Yun and the others to return to the relevant department.
There hadnât been anything wrong with the cycle this time, so after the very inconspicuous Treasure Hunting Doll was thrown out by Su Zimo at the start, it never returned to him. He didnât know if there would be any surprises.
But after finding the Treasure Hunting Doll, Su Zimo really felt that he was a lot more relaxed. At least he didnât need to worry about things in the nightmare world like before while simultaneously caring about what things around him were valuable ghost tools.
Especially when he was pretending to be a trainer, Su Zimo had no chances to search around him.
But⌠even Su Zimo didnât understand why he had to worry so much about things in the nightmare world. Maybe it was because the unknown future that was approaching made him feel uneasy, ba?
Su Zimo followed Cheng Yun and the others and found that Cheng Yun and Dr. Jin would look back at him every so often.
He knew that these veterans may already be suspicious of his identity.
But there was nothing guarded in their eyes. It was more doubt and curiosity, so Su Zimo didnât care.
Of course, the veteransâ soft conversations still reached Su Zimoâs ears at times.
âA-Yu is really amazing.â After experiencing several cycles together, Dr. Jin even liked his strange name.
âHe found so many key clues. As a child, heâs particularly powerful, but maybe itâs also because of good luck?â Cheng Yun didnât think about other factors. âIn the nightmare world, after all, luck is also part of strength.â
âBut I still find it a little strange.â What Bai Man wanted to say was always outside of Cheng Yunâs consideration. âFinding the suicide note in the newspaper may be good luck, but was it also luck that made him rush across the street to stop Lin Hao and Lin Ren? When you were at Madam Chenâs home before, he suddenly rushed to the door of Uncle Hongâs home. Was that also luck?â
Su Zimo, who was able to hear them, nodded to himself. The two things he had to do in order to progress the âplotâ were indeed not things children should do.
âIf itâs not luck, how else could we explain it?â Dr. Jin sighed, as if she didnât want to think about such a problem that could make her go bald.
âIs he not a newcomer?â Bai Man asked suddenly.
Cheng Yun was stunned, then suddenly smiled: âIf A-Yu is a veteran, wouldnât that be a good thing?â
Hearing what Cheng Yun said, Su Zimo was also taken aback.
âBut he didnât say anythingâŚâ Bai Man couldnât help but frown still.
âIsnât it good to just leave it be? Children just need to have this kind of vigilance.â Cheng Yun didnât care at all. âIf my stupid meimei was also vigilant, she wouldnât have been deceived by that kind of scum. Sheâs had to understand a bit more recently because of hardship.â
âAnd⌠if A-Yu really is a wary veteran, we wonât have to worry about what dangers heâll encounter after he leaves us.â
Su Zimo sighed after hearing Cheng Yunâs words. Although he knew that the Dawn Organization had problems deep in his bones, Cheng Yun, a leader in the Dawn Organization was truly like the image that the organization portrayed to the outside world. His values were so simple.
Sometimes Su Zimo also thought simply and wanted to tell himself⌠maybe the Dawn Organization really was a group of saints.
After bringing the suicide note to the relevant department, everything seemed to proceed very smoothly. Madam Chen had been waiting there, saying she wanted to wait with Lin Hao and Lin Ren for a while.
After Madam Chen was surprised by Cheng Yunâs reappearance she learned about the existence of the suicide note from him and the others.
After Cheng Yun told the police officers about the suicide note, they delayed the arrest of Lin Hao and Lin Ren. They agreed to let them go after hearing the contents of the suicide note.
While Lin Hao and Lin Ren were stunned by the contents of the suicide note, Madam Chen couldnât help but blush.
âYou two sweethearts, ei. If i say that I just treated you as an exchange, that old man surnamed Hong really treated you as son and daughter!â Madam Chenâs voice fell onto Lin Hao and Lin Renâs ears like knives.
They werenât bad people, but their experiences from childhood to adulthood made them unable to learn how to trust others. They didnât even feel the old peopleâs concern for them. With doubt and suspicion, they thought that Uncle Hong would misunderstand about them stealing money. They thought Uncle Hong would call the police. They thoughtâŚ
When they started, they thought that the Uncle Hong in front of them was a hostile asshole who would beat and kick you to death, but they forgot that he was just a fragile old man.
An old man who really cared about them.
Lin Ren grabbed his sisterâs hand and slapped himself, then bowed his head to the police officer in front of him.
Uncle Hong, who was floating transparently in the distant, also sighed, but his expression looked much better.
Everything was as if⌠the task had come to an end. All the trainers felt that Lin Hao and Lin Ren wouldnât die from this nightmare world. They could end this nightmare world as long as they waited for one night.
A certain university student in the team relaxed and said with a smile: âI heard that what happens in the nightmare world is based on real people and real things? This case is real, right? I wonder if Lin Hao and Lin Ren in the real world have seen the suicide note.â
At that moment, old man Hongâs eyes turned grey and his transparent expression turned hideous. The originally quiet and bright space around him suddenly blew with a cold wind that came from nowhere.
âNot good!â Su Zimo opened his eyes wide.
They maybe⌠shouldnât have let Uncle Hong know that everything in this world was fake!
Su Zimo didnât know that Uncle Hong himself didnât understand, but Lin Hao and Lin Renâs deaths in this world should have been intentionally set up by Uncle Hong, who was a ghost!
Even if his aura seemed normal, the core of the nightmare world was still a ghost!
They probably shouldnât announce the fact that âthis world is fakeâ in front of that ghost!
The ghost who had been silent until now suddenly spoke. His voice was dry as if he hadnât spoken for decades. It was hoarse and sharp, and it sounded uncomfortable in his ears.
[After I died, the people around me heard the lie about my âgoing to the country to visit relatives.â I laid on the cold floor for 3 months and 24 days before the unbearable smell caused the neighborhood to break in.]
[No one cared in life, no one cares after deathâŚ]
Su Zimo couldnât help but gasp. He now had a realistic body in the nightmare world.
It really was a ghost, ah!
The nightmare world was a âdreamâ that Uncle Hong wove to keep himself calm, and he seemed to think that this peaceful âdreamââŚ
âRun away!â Su Zimo didnât care about anything. He spoke directly to the other trainers. âThe farther away from Uncle Hong, the better!â
