Chapter 4 was just a dream

  In an instant, Yue had arrived in front of her. Lian Xi subconsciously raised her gun and smashed it towards Yue, the hardness of the gun combined with Lian Xi's last bit of strength, Yue's brains burst out, and she fell to the ground. "Ah!" Lian Xi had never seen such a disgusting scene before, and she let out a loud cry.

  Ling Yu saw the ground littered with wreckage and his body covered in blood. He couldn't help but feel a little nauseous. At this time, a voice rang out "Congratulations, you have completed this task, successfully killing the target and triggering two hidden tasks, earning a total of 9 survival points."

  The words that Ying Xuan said before he died kept echoing in Lian Xi's mind... "Yue, if I could die at your hands, I would be content!" Did Ying Xuan know that Yue was going to kill him? Was he willing to be killed by Yue? What did it mean to complete the task? What were the nine survival points? What on earth was going on?!

  Lianxiang woke up with a start from her dream, drenched in sweat. Her white nightgown was soaked through, and her hair was so wet that she couldn't tell if it was sweat or tears. Lianxiang subconsciously glanced at her arm, sighing in relief to see that it was still there - it had all been just a dream. This dream had felt too real, like she was playing a video game raid.

  "Hello, Qiaojia... I had a very strange dream last night, it was so scary. I dreamed of a place like purgatory and my arm being torn off... It felt just like playing a zombie game. Although it was quite frightening, thinking about it now is actually quite interesting."

  "Huh? Interesting? You're really something! Well, I hope you continue playing games with zombies in your dreams tonight!"

  "No, no! Actually, thinking about it now is still quite frightening. Compared to this nightmare, I'd rather go on a ghost house adventure. At least nobody would die in front of me, with blood and flesh everywhere, staring with big eyes, brains splattered... that giant spider..."

  "Ugh, I'm so annoyed! Don't even tell me, or I'll have nightmares tonight too! Lianxi, what's wrong with you? Why are you still having nightmares? Didn't you get enough rest again? You probably stayed up late again, didn't you? You're asking for it!... Alright, don't scare yourself, let's go eat dinner together with Xiaomu tonight."

  "Okay." She hung up the phone and smiled mischievously for a while, knowing that Qiao Jia was timid and had intentionally scared her. Although she felt a bit guilty, she couldn't help but want to play this kind of joke on Qiao Jia. However, when it came to scaring Qiao Jia's colleagues, Lian Xi herself was also very afraid. Suddenly, she remembered what Xiao Meng had said - that she was a student at No. 6 Middle School... Anyway, there was nothing else to do, so she might as well go and verify it...

  Ling Yu immediately set off for the Sixth Middle School. "Hello, I'd like to ask you about someone, do you know Gu Meng?" "No, go ask someone else" ... ... Time and time again, it seemed that no one knew who Gu Meng was.

  "Right, how could I forget Xin Xiaomu? 'Xiaomu, didn't your uncle work at the Education Commission or something?'"

  "What are you up to again, Mo Lianxiu? You just call me and ask me to do something! Hmph!" "Nothing, Xiao Mu. I was thinking of dying for you! Just now, I told Qiao Jia that we would have dinner together tonight. Speaking of which, can you find out if there is a girl named Gu Meng at the Sixth Middle School?"

  "What's the matter, why are you asking about this? I know you like both boys and girls, but can't take advantage of students, right? That's a bit too immoral!"

  "I just like them young, hehe. Alright, alright, don't make a fuss, you're my love, my love go ask for me quickly!"

  "Alright, alright, wait for my news! Northern nose."

  Lian Yu anxiously waited for Xiao Mu's news. Although Lian Yu didn't believe that the dream was real, she had to say that it was really strange. Everything in the dream was so real, the moment when she lost her arm was truly heart-wrenching painful, and there was a foul smell all around...

  "Poor you, I've asked for you, the Sixth Middle School doesn't have this person! Were you fooled by someone, and you believed it just because they said so? Are you stupid?! And it's gotten to the point where I had to ask grandpa and grandma to help find the person for you!"

  "What?! No... How can there be no one?! Is it really true that this person doesn't exist?" Ling Xi hesitated for a moment, then fell silent for a long time...

  "Hey? Hey...... Lianxi, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? Are you sick or something, asking all these weird questions out of nowhere......" "Dear, I'm fine......" Lianxi told Xiaomu about her dream from last night.

  "Hey! It's just a dream, why are you so worked up? You must have watched too many horror movies. Because of this nightmare, I've been busy running around for you, do you think it's reasonable?! Not that I'm saying you're wrong, but can't you be normal for once... Your dreams are always about ghosts or monsters, and you even believe them, I don't know what to say to you... Alright, see you tonight!"

  Xiao Mu's scolding made Lian Xi feel much more at ease, since it seemed that person really didn't exist... It looked like it was just a nightmare after all, and she had been thinking too much. Lian Xi returned home to tidy up and wait for the evening when she would meet Xiao Mu and Qiao Jia.

  Lian Xi sat in the bathtub, closing her eyes to enjoy the comfort of bathing. However, this comfort did not last long, and a terrifying scene from a nightmare suddenly appeared in her mind. Lian Xi couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. She suddenly thought that if all of this was just a dream, why could she feel pain? Thinking about this made Lian Xi's hair stand on end...

  Lian Xi opened her eyes, and once she looked at her own arm, she stroked her left arm. She was able to sleep until dawn in such a nightmare, and she had to admire herself for that. It's hard not to say that Lian Xi is really strange - just now she was frightened out of her wits, but now she thought of this point and started to be self-satisfied, admiring herself...

  Forget it, now it's also confirmed that there is no such person, don't worry about anything anymore.

  "Xiao Mu, Qiao Jia, I'm here! It's been a week since I've seen you two annoying ghosts, and I really miss you! By the way, now that I'm here, how dare you not stand up to greet me?! You're so bold! But I'm in a great mood right now, so I'll forgive you. Hurry up and thank me..."

  "Hey, Mo Da Ying, you're late and yet you still have the nerve to put on this smug face. Hurry up and sit down! You're lucky that I, Xiao Mu, and Qiao Jia didn't beat you up for being late. Stop showing off...” Qiao Jia watched as Xiao Mu and Lian Xi bickered, sitting aside with a sly smile.

  Qiao Jia has always been like this, quietly smiling foolishly on the side, not participating in the verbal sparring between Lian Xi and Xiao Mu. Because she is well aware that she can't match up to the other two when it comes to talking, no matter how you put it, they are just too glib. Qiao Jia deeply knows that Lian Xi and Xiao Mu, these two people together, can turn even death into life with their words, they will not let go of any advantage, and can stir up trouble out of nothing...

  In the evening, three people finished dinner happily and returned home. Lian Xi had already forgotten last night's nightmare and rested after washing up as usual. For several days in a row, she didn't have any more dreams, and gradually, she forgot that terrible nightmare. However, Lian Xi was unaware that that night's nightmare was only the beginning...
