The world that only ghosts know

  Every time I'm bored in class, I take out my phone to play. The things I usually play with are watching videos, reading news, looking at those kinds of pictures, and playing games.

  Playing games has always been my strong point, Temple Run and Subway Surfers are too easy for me. I get bored after a while and feel extremely empty and lonely, so I have to download some niche games to play.

  That afternoon in the last class, I inadvertently found a game called "Soul Detector".

  At that time, I thought this game was quite arrogant. From the introduction, it seemed quite scientific. It claimed to detect paranormal phenomena around you through quantum flux and some specific calculation method. What a load of nonsense, just a scam to rip people off.

  I was about to skip it, but accidentally saw the game comments at the bottom of the screen. Everyone was saying, oh my god, so scary, so terrifying, and some even said they didn't want to live or wanted to jump off a building. I thought, is it really that scary? So out of curiosity, I installed the game on my phone.

  In traditional Chinese medicine, people with good kidneys are said to have bigger gallbladders, so I've always thought of myself as having a big gallbladder and dared to do things that others didn't dare to do in school, such as... sleeping during class, singing, etc.

  You might ask, daring to sing in class, really damn bold! But would I tell you that I was singing in my sleep?

  Those great deeds were widely circulated among classmates and also enjoyed a great reputation in our Beicheng Middle School, so I had the nickname "good big courage".

  By the way, I'll mention my name here. My surname is Hao and my given name is Shuang, but I have no idea what kind of mood my dad was in when he gave me such a name that's so easy to misunderstand. Although his own name isn't much better - he's called Hao Gaoxing.

  Back to the normal, after I opened this soul detector, a radar appeared in the middle of the screen. The top bar had some other functional menus, and the bottom bar had two buttons, one was "Start" and the other was "End".

  I resolutely clicked the "start" button, and the radar began to scan. Five seconds later, I saw a red dot appear in the northeast direction. This should be the legendary soul, right? Hmm, this light yellow dot can move? In a moment, it moved to due north and slowly approached me.

  At that time I almost laughed out loud, this game company is really good, designed so humanized, as if the soul really exists.

  "Hao Shuang, what are you doing? You're laughing so slyly." Classmate Fan Jianqiang leaned over quietly and stared at my phone screen: "What's this?"

  "Soul detector." I gave a disdainful smile. He let out an "eh" of surprise, snatched my phone from me, and said, "Let me take a look."

  "There's nothing fun about it, be careful, don't get caught by the teacher." I chuckled quietly, this was right in the middle of a perverted teacher's class, can't make too much movement.

  "Hao Shuang, take a look, we can still observe the soul through the camera!" The classmate next to me picked up his phone, and the screen showed that the camera was open, looking around everywhere. I played with my pen boredly, and after playing for a while, he said dejectedly: "Damn it, there's nothing."

  Fan Jianqiang returned my phone and used his hand to support his head, "fishing". I picked up the phone, the camera was still on, and I was about to exit this game. Just as I was thinking of clicking the exit button, I saw through the screen that a long-haired girl with no clothes on was standing next to the podium, slowly walking towards me!

  I was so scared that I almost peed! In a state of shock, I didn't sit steadily on the stool and "thud" directly fell backwards!

  "What the f**k!" A furious voice came from behind, it was Chen Fei, the class troublemaker: "I was sleeping so well, what the h**l are you doing!"

  I didn't react in time, and before I knew it, Chen Fei had grabbed my collar. It turned out that when I fell down earlier, I had bumped into Chen Fei and woken him up! Just as Chen Fei raised his fist to hit me, the teacher on the podium shouted: "What are you doing? We're in class now!"

  Chen Fei stopped his fist, looked at the perverted teacher with disdain, and then turned back to look at me. Because no matter how perverted this teacher was, he couldn't compare to Chen Fei's perversion. We'll talk about Chen Fei's glorious deeds another time.

  "Yes, sorry." I'm a relatively honest student with average grades. Since I don't stand out in class and am rarely bullied, but I know Chen Fei is not someone to be trifled with, so I apologize.

  Unfortunately, apologizing was useless. Chen Fei's fist was still coming towards me with great force. I wanted to struggle free, but he was too strong and I couldn't move at all.

  I closed my eyes and tried to alleviate the pain by silently reciting the "Chrysanthemum Treasure Classic", muttering softly: "To practice this skill, one must first castrate oneself"

  It should have some effect, after all, everyone knows how painful it is to cut the egg, those who practice this kung fu can even bear the pain of cutting the egg, I'm sure this kung fu has a great pain-relieving effect.

  A crisp "slap" sound rang out, I was startled, this damn thing really works, it doesn't hurt at all!

  The next second, I heard two loud claps, and Chen Fei suddenly let go of me. I opened my eyes to see Chen Fei's face twisted in a ferocious expression, his face red with rage. He panted heavily and said, "You little brat, you dare to hit me? Fine, I won't hit you now, but today, I'll make sure you die!"

  Chen Fei didn't care about the teacher's face, hugged his face and ran out of the classroom. At this time, the eyes of all the classmates shifted away, and the teacher sighed: "Hao Shuang, hurry up and clean up, okay everyone, focus your attention and take class seriously!"

  I sat back in my seat, thinking that the teacher didn't want to deal with this matter anymore, but I still had a big question in my mind: I remembered that I hadn't hit him just now, so why did Chen Fei look like he was really beaten up? I asked my deskmate Fan Jianqiang, and Fan Jianqiang shook his head indicating that he didn't know either.

  But if I didn't hit Chen Fei, what's with those few slapping sounds just now? I really did hear them!

  Weird.

  I thought for a while, but didn't come up with any results. After a while, Fan Jianqiang said to me that it would be almost time to get out of class in half an hour, and Chen Fei must be waiting at the school gate to scold me, advising me to hurry up and climb over the wall to go home. I felt that Fan Jianqiang's words were reasonable, so I told the teacher that my stomach hurt and left quickly.

  Lying in bed at home and thinking carefully, I realized a serious mistake: even if you can avoid the first one, you can't avoid the fifteenth. Even if this time I escaped from Chen Fei, I still have to go to class later, can I escape?

  Thought about it over and over again, still don't know what to do. Accidentally glanced at the phone, might as well play with it for a bit to relax my mood.

  Looking at the icon of that soul detector on my phone's desktop, I felt extremely depressed: if I hadn't installed this crappy software, I wouldn't have been scared, and I wouldn't have provoked that pervert Chen Fei!

  The more I think about it, the angrier I get, so I decided to uninstall this thing. Just as I was about to confirm the uninstallation, I remembered a scene I saw through the camera this morning and hesitated again.

  I remember there was a girl standing next to the podium, full of fruit, although her chest is small, but with the opportunity to develop, it's still possible to grow into a big bun, right?... Ugh! What am I thinking?! As an excellent student, I actually thought of such a shameless question, too embarrassing!

  Who is that girl after all? Why didn't anyone notice when she stood there without clothes on? Is it really the legendary soul? I just laughed, this is impossible, we are atheists, socialist saplings, how can we believe in the existence of such things?

  Maybe it's just that I've looked at those messy pictures too much and had some kind of hallucination, damn! In the future, I should look less, looking at a thousand pictures a day is indeed a bit too much.

  Anyway, I was still curious, so I opened the game again to observe. Five seconds later, a light yellow dot appeared on the radar, but it disappeared immediately. I opened the soul-measuring camera and observed the room in all directions, but didn't find anything strange at all.

  I was just about to shut down the game and take a break, when I accidentally saw an option called "Dialogue" in the menu. Could it be that I can actually talk to the soul through this thing? That's interesting, I want to see what effect it has! If it's nonsense, I'll uninstall it directly.

  I opened the dialogue option, and the screen prompted that I could greet the souls around me and ask them any questions. So I asked into my phone: "Is anyone here? Your mom is calling you to go home for dinner! Haha, haha, haha!"

  After finishing speaking, the phone started processing this sentence. After a while, the phone prompted me: "Sir, please use civilized language, if you don't seek death, you won't die!"

  I was suddenly covered in black lines, thinking that asking a question would be too much nonsense, so I changed the subject: "Beauty, what's your bust size?"

  After the phone processed this sentence, a "hissing" muffled sound came through, and I couldn't hear it clearly at all. I thought it was too quiet, so I put my ear close to the speaker to listen, when suddenly a clear and crisp female voice like a silver bell came through, with only three words: "Stinky scoundrel!"

  At that time I was stunned, what's going on? This game is also too pretentious, can it even answer questions?

  It's so much fun, I asked again: "Beauty, don't be afraid, brother is a good person, last year he was still awarded the school's top three students, his character is very good, how old are you this year?"

  "Get lost, you stinker!" The girl's voice on the phone was not polite at all. I thought this should be a dialogue system of the mobile phone program. I continued to ask: "Beauty, don't mess around, be serious, tell me what your name is."

  I pretended to be serious, and the voice on the other end of the phone paused for a moment before coming through with a hint of shyness: "Nie... Nie Xiaoqian."

  "Nie Xiaoqian, ah, nice name, I'm Hao Shuang." I replied quickly, Nie Xiaoqian, this name sounds a bit familiar?
