That day, Ni Yangzhou spent a full three hours apologizing to Meng Ting.

When it was time to go to bed at night, Ni Yangzhou slipped into bed as usual. Looking at Meng Ting, who was so angry that his brows were furrowed even in his sleep, he felt that maybe he was a little too defensive.

You're already dead and the mission is halfway completed, so why are you in such a hurry to cut ties?

Meng Ting might get annoyed by the father and son talking about father and son all day long.

Could there be another ghost story?

Ni Yangzhou lay on the bed, feeling sleepy.

I tossed and turned, but I just couldn't fall asleep.

Ni Yangzhou was so angry that he lay down and covered himself with a quilt, but he felt that the quilt was too heavy and he couldn't breathe.

Yes, now I am a paper man, so relatively speaking, the thin quilt is heavy.

The boy patted the pillow and stretched his clothes.

"Did I forget something?"

What's the matter?

Ni Yangzhou muttered to himself in the dark night.

“…Where’s my progress report!”

The ghost was so frightened that his soul almost jumped out of the paper figurine.

The boy, who had his eyes closed as if he had fallen asleep, suddenly stretched out a hand, put his index and middle fingers together, and touched the center of the paper man's eyebrows.

Ni Yangzhou's soul was pulled back again.

"Fuck," Ni Yangzhou was startled by the sudden separation from his body, and he was still frightened: "Thank you, Brother Meng."

The boy snorted coldly and turned his back, leaving Ni Yangzhou with a cold and ruthless look at the back of his head.

Ni Yangzhou felt his chest and limbs to make sure that his body was still usable, and he dared not get startled again.

How did you summon that translucent interface that day?

"Dog system?" Ni Yangzhou whispered.

With a "swish", a translucent interface opened in front of Ni Yangzhou's eyes, emitting a faint blue light.

It is extremely conspicuous in the dark.

So obvious? Aren't you afraid of being seen?

The task progress is still in the center of the interface window. Unknowingly, it has reached 53%.

It seems that now that I can see the progress in real time, the daily reports are gone.

Ni Yangzhou stretched out his hand again and pointed tentatively.

The moment he touched it, ripples spread out from the first book icon, and Ni Yangzhou felt as if he had really touched the screen.

The interface changes, and when you click on the book, there is only one book inside.

The name is "Dinglan in Dream".

Ni Yangzhou looked at the deep alley, the dim street lights at the entrance, and the dense rain and fog, and finally understood which book these four literary words belonged to.

No, Mr. or Ms. Author, why would a murder novel be called this?

Ni Yangzhou looked at Meng Ting who was lying on his side with his back to him and wiped away bitter tears.

The protagonist is unique, right?

Ni Yangzhou resisted the urge to continue complaining and clicked on the book cover. He discovered that in addition to the short three-line outline he had seen before, there were words in the columns for the main and supporting characters.

The protagonist is of course Meng Ting.

supporting role……

Ni Yangzhou saw his name.

The back row is blank and should not be filled yet, so the tricky method of looking for clues from the information bar will not work.

Ni Yangzhou stared at the last line of words and sighed slowly in his heart.

[Main mission: Find the murderer.]

It's a pity that I couldn't see the murderer even though he was so close to me.

Ni Yangzhou had thought about it countless times in the past few days, and he only remembered that the man should be relatively tall and strong, with a steady hand and strong muscles, otherwise he would not have been able to stab so deep at once.

No other clues are known.

Ni Yangzhou thought of the man in black in the DV he had seen before, and felt that the two men had similar figures and might be the same person.

There was no point in thinking too much, so Ni Yangzhou continued to turn the pages and found that they were all blank. The whole book had only a cover, an outline on the title page, and a brief introduction.

Ni Yangzhou sighed and had to click on several other icons.

The second one is a user avatar. When you click on it, you will see your name and a small note. The words in the brackets in the note are "Status: Ghost".

You still need to tell me this...

Ni Yangzhou clicked on the third schoolbag pattern.

This time it wasn't empty.

The interface expanded, revealing hundreds of densely packed small grids. In the first grid was a small package tied with a glittering golden ribbon.

Ni Yangzhou immediately thought of the so-called special reward.

Click it and a line of explanation will appear next to the special reward:

[One-day body experience outfit: You can have 24 hours of real body return to the world. Once it is activated, it cannot be terminated. It will automatically disappear when the time is up. Note: Only available in the "ghost" state.]

[Please confirm whether to use:]

[whether.]

No no no no no.

Ni Yangzhou quickly clicked the close button, fearing that he would slip and waste the item.

Maybe it will be of great use later.

The last pattern is the chat bubble.

Ni Yangzhou is actually looking forward to this the most. Is there any other tasker in this book? Can he communicate with others?

A tap of the finger and the interface doesn't change.

Ni Yangzhou didn't believe it and nodded again.

Or not.

The boy moved closer and looked carefully, only to find that the last pattern was dimmer than the other three, much like a gray, unactivated state.

Ni Yangzhou was a little discouraged, but not particularly disappointed.

After all, there will be opportunities to explore and illuminate in the future.

The boy clicked around again, making sure there were no hidden modules, and finally wanted to close the interface.

Before his hand touched the cross in the upper right corner, Ni Yangzhou suddenly retracted his hand.

The blue-purple light was hard to ignore in the room. Didn’t Meng Ting, who was sleeping soundly beside him, notice it at all?

Ni Yangzhou turned his head and saw that the boy's profile was reflected in a light blue.

"Brother Meng?"

Boys shouldn't.

"Dad Meng?"

Still no sound.

"Meng Ting!"

Ni Yangzhou raised his voice, and the boy turned around and faced Ni Yangzhou who was screaming in the middle of the night.

He opened his eyes lazily.

“Who are you kneeling to if you’re not sleeping in the middle of the night?

Paper figures do not need to worship the moon to practice. "

Ni Yangzhou quickly sat up and rubbed his legs that were numb from kneeling.

"that……"

Ni Yangzhou pointed at the light screen in front of him.

Meng Ting followed the boy's finger and looked forward, and saw only a clean table.

"I'll do my homework at school tomorrow."

Meng Ting was still feeling depressed, so he turned around and walked away after he finished speaking.

Can't see.

Ni Yangzhou nodded, having expected this.

"Then you go to bed early."

This interface can only be seen by the tasker himself, not even Meng Ting who has opened the Yin-Yang Eyes.

Ni Yangzhou turned off the screen and lay back on the bed.

After thinking it over again and again, I still couldn't figure anything out.

The boy covered his head with a pillow in annoyance.

A hand reached out from the side and gently removed the pillow, allowing the angry Ni Yangzhou to breathe well.

Meng Ting faced the wall, with his back to Ni Yangzhou, and said in a light tone:

"It is afraid of water, fire and heavy objects, so use it with care."

Upon hearing this, Ni Yangzhou quickly put the pillow away and touched his face in the dark.

"It's over."

Ni Yangzhou approached the boy with his back to him in a muffled voice.

"Brother Meng, my nose is crooked."
