Chapter 355 The Right Day

What is first love? A pure dewdrop on the tip of your heart? A kite with a broken string? A math problem with no answer?
Or, is it a cold, scary female ghost carrying a gift?

Gao Ming, who was expelled from school, was leaning against the wooden table. Liu Yi, who was wearing a casual suit, was standing at the door. Fan Li stood between the two of them with a puzzled look on his face, wondering if he was a little redundant.
"Liu Yi, you look a lot older." As soon as Gao Ming opened his mouth, Fan Li felt that something bad was going to happen. Even a straight man like him knew that he should not say that a girl looks old.

After making sure the door was locked, Liu Yi walked around the room carrying the gift box. Her eyes were always on Gao Ming: "Have I confessed to you?"

"You were harassed by hooligans outside the school, and I couldn't stand it so I fought with them. Then you sent me to the school clinic, bought me a lot of things, and stayed with me for several days." Gao Ming frowned: "But I made it clear that you should study hard and not fall in love too early."

Liu Yi couldn't bear to listen any longer, so she just opened the two diaries on the table without saying anything.

"Is this a gift for me?" Gao Ming was about to touch the big red gift box, but Liu Yi suddenly raised his hand and held it down.

"Why?"

"The gift in the box is mine." Liu Yi took a step forward and stood in front of Gao Ming. She had very light makeup on her face and her body temperature was very low.

The two were a little close, and Gao Ming, who was wearing a school uniform, couldn't help but take a step back, but Liu Yi followed closely. She stared at Gao Ming's face and said, "You didn't receive your gift? Everyone should have a gift in their room."

"What are you talking about? Do you think you are Santa Claus?" Although Gao Ming was wearing a school uniform, he did not give the impression of being a good student at all. As a ruthless person who fought every day and blocked the school bully, he was forced to retreat by Liu Yi at this moment.

His back hit the wall, and Gao Ming finally realized something: "You are not Liu Yi, who the hell are you!"

"I am Liu Yi, but you are not the Gao Ming I am looking for." Liu Yi frowned and glanced at Fan Li: "Why are you here?"

Fanli opened his mouth. He heard Gao Ming, who was wearing a school uniform, say that Liu Yi was a classmate, so Liu Yi should also be a member of Class 13: "Gao Ming asked me to come. He saved my life. I have to help him no matter what."

"Are there still good-for-nothings like you in the current Hanhai?" Liu Yi stared at Fan Li for a while: "Where is your gift?"

"What gift?" Fanli really didn't understand.

“When you open the door with the key, there are gifts in every room. They are the most important things in your life and you will never forget them even if you die!” Liu Yi held her gift box and protected it behind her.

"I gave the key to my teammates. So far, I have only entered the room where Gao Ming is." Fanli is not good at lying and said truthfully.

"Leave immediately and find your own room. Only by getting the gift can you leave this world of ghost stories." Liu Yi had a serious expression.

After thinking for a while, Fanli shook his head and said, "Gao Ming needs my help now. I will not leave. If there is really a gift in my room, my teammates will help me collect it."

Seeing Fan Ru was so stubborn, Liu Yi didn't say anything. She threw the two diaries into Gao Ming's schoolbag and said, "Every one of us who enters an abnormal event will receive a gift in his room. Gao Ming didn't get a gift, which means he was not the right choice. It's not the day we are looking for."

"What do you mean?"

"All the house numbers here are 0715. According to the date in the diary, it is now July th, and after midnight it will be July th." Liu Yi and Gao Ming took that bus twice in a row: "If we follow the lunar calendar, July th is the Zhongyuan Festival."

"Ghost Festival?"

"Gao Ming's biggest life change started on the night of the Ghost Festival. Only if we let him continue to make those choices, he will become who he is now." Liu Yi temporarily believed Fan Li: "We have ruled out two rooms, but this is far from enough. Our time is running out." "No? What are you talking about?" Gao Ming tried hard to fit in, but he really couldn't understand.

"You can understand it as, the two of us are from the future several years later, and someone wants to harm you. Now the only way we can help you make the right choice is for you to become the right person." Liu Yi's expression was cold. She and Xuan Wen had completely different temperaments. They were both resolute and swift, and didn't care about worldly matters.

"Several years later..." Gao Ming's eyes moved slightly, as if he was a little puzzled: "Are you still so calm?"

Seeing that Liu Yi's eyes had become as sharp as knives, Fan Li quickly stood in the middle: "He is praising you for your youth. Saving people is more important, saving people is more important!"

There was no sound in the corridor, and the three of them crowded at the door.

Gao Ming, who was expelled from school, took out his notebook and wrote the same words on every page by hand. The general idea was that he hoped Gao Ming in the house would open the door so that they could discuss how to save him.

"We'll go out at the same time later and stuff as many papers as possible into the house. If there's still time, remember to knock on the door." Fanli calculated the time and then opened the door.

The voice-activated lights came on, and the three of them stuffed the notes into several rooms, not coming back until almost a minute had passed.

They waited in the house for a long time, but there was no unusual sound in the corridor. Gao Ming in other rooms seemed unwilling to open the door even if he saw the contents of the note.

"It seems that not everyone is as brave as me." Gao Ming, who was expelled from school, held the weapon he made himself and said, "If they don't open the door, we should try to solve it with violence, right?"

"Prying open the door?" Liu Yi is a lawyer, and she has never done this before: "You are pretty cruel to yourself."

"I just want to see what the right choice is."

After things calmed down outside, the three of them came out again.

This time Gao Ming took the lead. He took the crowbar he picked up from the garbage dump, rushed directly to the wooden door diagonally opposite, and smashed the lock. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not open that ordinary wooden door.

"It's broken, it seems these doors can only be opened from the inside!" Gao Ming said loudly: "Only the owner of the house can open the door!"

"Let me try!" Liu Yi grabbed the crowbar. Obvious muscles and blood vessels could be seen on her arms.

Fan Li and Gao Ming didn't know what Liu Yi had experienced. This woman seemed to be stronger than both of them, and even the crowbar was deformed.

"No! It can't be opened. It seems that they have to come out on their own initiative!" Liu Yi let go of the crowbar.

"Hurry! It's time to go back!" Fan Li shouted anxiously, but at this moment, there was a knock on the door from the deepest part of the corridor!

Boom boom boom!
The sound was very obvious, as if a head was constantly banging against the door.

"The knocking sound came from inside the house?" Fan Li was extremely surprised. He looked to the farthest end of the corridor - the door panel covered with talismans was shaking slightly.

"The high-ranking official in that room wants to get out!"
