I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

"Gu Chaoxi, there's a delivery for you!"

She rushed back from outside in the morning dew, and before she could even enter the unit door, she was stopped by the uncle from the security room.

"oops!"

With a sigh, she slumped her shoulders and moved over, stretched out her hand and looked at the other person listlessly: "Give it to me."

"Were you out on night watch again yesterday?" The uncle had been in this community for nearly half a year and was quite familiar with Gu Chaoxi.

Her job is quite special, she goes to the funeral home to help others keep vigil.

Due to the customs in Haicheng, many families believe that they need to keep vigil when a relative passes away, to prevent their souls from becoming restless and unable to reincarnate.

At first, people guarded the temple by themselves. Later, some people became afraid and started to pay people to do it. Gradually, this specialized profession was developed.

Gu Chaoxi is considered to have an extremely good reputation in this profession, so many people come to her for help and she earns relatively more money.

Nodding, she took the package.

"Go back and have some rest." The uncle didn't delay her and immediately urged her to go in.

She responded absentmindedly, looking at the package in her hands as she walked.

Haven’t you bought anything new recently?

As I was thinking about it, my eyes fell on the sender's message, and suddenly I froze in place.

The elevator in front of her showed that it had reached the first floor, but she didn't react and let the elevator door open and close.

"Gu...Chenyang?" Her hands were shaking, and her originally sleepy eyes were now wide open.

how can that be possible?

Gu Chenyang is her biological brother, but the police confirmed that he had died in an explosion a year ago.

However, the package was sent two days ago, from Longan County where Gu Chenyang had the accident.

Her mind suddenly exploded and she carefully checked the phone number at the back, which was also Gu Chenyang's.

However, it was Gu Chaoxi who personally cancelled his phone number.

Could it be that someone was playing a prank on her?

That's too much of a coincidence, who would make such a joke?

Gu Chaoxi frowned and touched the things inside the express package. It seemed to be wrapped with a layer of shock-proof film and he could not feel anything.

She gritted her teeth, pressed the elevator button and went upstairs quickly.

As soon as I entered the room, I rushed over, grabbed a pair of scissors, and violently removed the packaging.

Quietly lying inside the full circle of shock-proof film is a black card with a gold edge and a translucent green jade ring.

"This is?"

She picked up the black card. On the front was a bat with its wings spread, and behind the bat was a bright white crescent moon.

However, the gap of a normal crescent moon is on the left or right, but this one is on the top, as if the moon is carrying the bat flying.

There are faint fangs around the picture, and it looks like the bat is about to fly into the mouth of a huge beast.

An indescribable feeling of weirdness.

She felt goose bumps on the back of her neck, shook her shoulders, and turned the black card over.

"what!"

This sight frightened her so much that she threw the black card away.

Staring at the card that fell on the ground, Gu Chaoxi huddled on the sofa without moving.

The whole room was so quiet that the only sound that could be heard was her breathing, which was short and rapid.

After a while, she moved her body, carefully lay down on the sofa and picked up the black card.

But her trembling hands betrayed her.

The back of the black card is a smooth, reflective surface with a picture of an upside-down, red-eyed bat with its fangs bared.

There are only three simple words engraved on it.

Gu Chaoxi.

She stared at the card and seemed to be able to see her face turn pale and weak for a moment in the reflection.

"Who is it?"

A dead person sent her a strange black card with his name on it. Anyone would find it horrifying.

She sank into the sofa, her temples throbbing.

As she recalled, after Gu Chenyang was confirmed dead, the police did not give her his ashes or anything that represented him. They just told her that because the explosion was too strong, many things could not be saved.

Now it seems that maybe it is not necessarily the case?

Her eyes dropped to look at the green emerald ring.

I reached out and picked it up. Under natural light, the ring seemed to be emitting a long green light, and it was exceptionally clear.

She compared her fingers and it seemed like they would fit perfectly.

Perhaps driven by curiosity, Gu Chaoxi put the ring on the index finger of his left hand, and it actually fit perfectly.

But the next second when she wanted to take it off, she couldn't do it at all. It was as if it had grown into her flesh, and there was a strong stinging pain when she pulled it hard.

With a layer of sweat on his forehead, Gu Chaoxi let go of his hand dejectedly.

"It's over. I'm going to die young!"

She wailed and raised her hands to cover her eyes. How could she die before her good life even began?

"drop!"

A prompt sound passed through the air, and she sat up suddenly, only to see a milky white display screen appear out of thin air at a distance of a palm in front of her.

"What the hell!" She shrank her neck back in fear, but the thing remained at the same distance from her.

Gu Chaoxi swallowed his saliva, raised his hand tremblingly, and touched it, and his fingers went straight through.

Something that cannot be touched.

Her hands were waving in the air, but she just penetrated again and again.

No matter which direction she looked, the display screen was always right in front of her sight.

Just as she was trying to figure out how this thing appeared, lines of words began to appear on it.

[Player: Gu Zhaoxi]

【Connection successful...】

【Welcome to the other side of the world】

[Next location: Longan County]

[Opening time: 10:21 pm, March 17]

[Players must arrive on time, otherwise they will be punished]

[Note: Please keep your ID card safe, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences]

The last line of words was even highlighted in red and bold.

Gu Chaoxi stared in a daze for a long while, and the screen in front of him gradually began to dissipate, and everything returned to calm.

Isn't that tomorrow afternoon?

Why is the location exactly where Gu Chenyang had the accident?

There were a series of question marks in her head, but she didn't know who to ask for help.

Looking at the black card in his hand, his own name seemed to become a little distorted.

What happens if this ID card is lost?

Everything seemed like a dream, and she didn't dare to do anything rash.

For everything in this world, it is better to believe it exists than to believe it does not exist.

Remembering the warning just now, Gu Chaoxi simply rolled over and got up, gathered a few clothes, and bought a ticket to Longan County on the ticket purchasing app.

Rather than sit and wait for death, it is better to take the initiative.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw a silver-haired man standing outside with a Band-Aid on his nose.

"Who are you?" She subconsciously took a step back and looked at the other person warily.

As if he didn't notice Gu Chaoxi's guard, the man looked around the room before looking at her again.

"You are a player too."
