Invade the World

  Chapter 152 Qingyue, Qingyue

  ...Is the same person.

  After repeated comparisons, Xu Xiangyang can only come to this conclusion.

  He stared at the spider evil spirit hanging upside down from the ceiling, and was silent for a while.

  Even if he unknowingly returned to the place before his death, this monster still didn't notice it.

  Qingyue said, "Evil spirits act according to their instincts." Human-shaped evil spirits like the old man in the haunted house may not be included, but monsters or human-faced spiders do act in a primitive animal or insect-like instinct.

  Only the evil of hunters or the fear of encountering natural enemies can be seen in them, other than that, they don't show any intelligence belonging to intelligent creatures.

  The human face inlaid on the fat blue-black belly has completely distorted its expression, but it looks "like a human", but in fact it has long since become a pattern that can only be painful in wailing.

  Because of this, he was afraid to confirm at first.

  However, from the deformed and solidified facial features, we can still vaguely see the traces of being a human.

  The element of the "human" spider evil spirit is more scarce and thinner than the old man in the haunted house, because apart from this human face, the rest is a spider-like body that is completely deformed and alienated.

what does this mean?

  According to Meng Zheng’s words, like the evil spirits that are infected by distant powers after death, and continue to encircle the world, they are called "human-shaped evil spirits", then...what about the human-faced spider in front of you?

  It is more like the unlucky person who has not become a human evil spirit. It is the result of combining the residue of human beings with the monsters in the haunted house.

  Difficult to communicate and hopelessly.

  This ending is even worse than becoming an old man in a haunted house.

  In other words, the current fate of this former team member was originally caused by the old man in the haunted house?

  Of course, Xu Xiangyang can’t regard the wandering and wounding ghosts as a living person, but for normal people, the attitude towards monsters and monsters in human skin will still be different.

In fact, during the recent period, because he often stays with the squad leader, he always meets the human face spider, and occasionally sees Miss Qingyue calling this monster like a bully, that hideous. His appearance slowly became funny and amiable in his eyes;

  However, when he discovered that the origin of the spider evil spirit was a living human being, a victim in a haunted house, his mood suddenly became heavy again.

   "Who did it? Or... the house itself?"

  Xu Xiangyang thought, his fists on his knees clenched unconsciously.

  The change in the expression on that face is extremely exaggerated, making it look like it is expressing anger or sadness; but in fact, its essence is similar to the camouflage pattern on a real spider, and it does not contain any human emotions.

  What appeared there was not a real human face, but just a mask, he said to himself.

  The human face spider got out of the body of the possessed teacher Yang; in other words, when the campus invasion happened, he and his companions had already died.

   "This means that Meng Zheng's statement is not accurate. In fact, after they realized that No. 41 Anning Street was a haunted house, they immediately sent this psychic team in."

  He said to the squad leader.

  That's why the whole army was wiped out? If the old man in the haunted house really appeared on the stage, he could understand that No. 41 Anning Street was enough to cultivate a Grade A evil spirit, maybe he wouldn't be so reckless.

  ……

  After being devastated by Zhu Qingyue just now, a big hole was broken in the middle of the floor of the room; but now, the ground has been reluctantly pieced together again, and as long as you stand on it, you will find that the supporting structure of the soles of the feet is very strong and will not collapse.

  Of course, the squad leader re-sews back with the thread in his hand

  As Xu Xiangyang once said with emotion, her ability is simply omnipotent, as if she can do everything.

  At this time, the two of them sat side by side on the side of the bed, facing the parcel placed on the same floor and the human face spider together in a daze.

  Although they are on the same bed, the teenagers and girls are sitting in a tight-knit manner, with a regular posture, and will not have any ambiguous thoughts.

  The squad leader's eyes fell on his profile. She seemed to notice his inner depression and said softly.

   "Come and think of something good."

  She pointed to the piled up luggage belonging to the psychic team.

   "At least, we got the gift they left behind."

  Hiking backpacks and packages covered by plastic sheets are filled with food, clean water, various survival items, and even a radio device.

  Xu Xiangyang also tried to play tricks. I don’t know if it’s a pity or it is true. The communication equipment is of no use in the haunted house, and the signal can’t be sent out at all, there is only a rustling sound.

  He simply turned on the device and put it there. Anyway, the battery reserves are abundant, and maybe occasionally you can receive signals from the outside world.

  "Will it be because they chose to use this room as a foothold so that it has not been invaded by distant forces? This group of people may have found their weakness."

   Zhu Qingyue guessed.

……possible.

The members of the    squad are all spirit mediums. Even if a single person is not an opponent of Grade A evil spirits, they still have a chance to find a way to fight erosion or exploit loopholes together. Moreover, they should be more familiar with the internal mechanism of the haunted house than themselves and the squad leader.

  Meng Zheng said that the members of the team are all elites. This sentence is not a lie. But even for such a group of people, they still died unclearly in the end.

  One of them has become an evil spirit, what about the remaining three?

  There are also four figures that Song Yao put out as shields. If they are not alive, where do they come from? Could it be their bodies?

  Thinking of these cruel questions that could not be answered for the time being, Xu Xiangyang felt a little heavy, but so far, the results of this haunted house adventure are actually pretty good, at least they have resolved their worries.

  Successfully found a safe source of food and water, and finally I can breathe a sigh of relief.

  "It’s luck this time. If there is no way to solve this problem, the owner of the haunted house can win without having to do it. Fortunately, there are professionals who have stepped in first and prepared better than us."

  In the two problems of food and water, it is relatively more difficult to fill your stomach. Because not to mention finding stored food in the refrigerator or in the room, you have not even seen mice and cockroaches along the way, and there is no such thing as a "source of protein as a last resort" option.

  As for the water...If you really can’t help it, you can only use the dirty water from the tap.

  And now, all this is no longer a problem.

  The two of them sorted out a bit. There were four members in the team. They prepared food and water for five days, which was more than enough for them.

   "It's a good thing."

  Xu Xiangyang took out a bottle of mineral water from the bag, twisted it and handed it to the squad leader, then twisted the bottle by himself, and took a few mouthfuls to relieve the dryness of the throat.

   "However, there are hidden dangers. Things left here and people are gone, it can only show that there is a real danger in this house; and it is the danger that they will come to the door before they have used up these resources."

  "It is also possible that they met the evil spirits while leaving here to explore the haunted house, and they were completely wiped out at one time, and no one was able to return." He thought for a while, and added another guess.

   "Okay, okay, you have said it several times, in fact, if we are there, these will not be a problem? The most important thing is food and water, and finding a way out..."

  She bit the compressed biscuits in the vacuum package, her bulging cheeks were like hamsters gnawing food, her tone was very brisk.

   "Now the worries are resolved, can we rest at ease?"

"etc."

  Xu Xiangyang just tore open the biscuit packaging, and couldn't help but vomit after hearing this sentence:

   "Didn't you just slept? How come it's time to rest so soon?"

   "Hey~"

  Zhu Qingyue clapped her hands, wiped off the crumbs of the biscuits, wiped her mouth with a wet towel, and replied solemnly.

  "It was a nap before. Then we went out for a round trip and returned to this room to show that the afternoon had passed. The meal just now was dinner. Then, isn't it time for rest? We have no homework to do."

  "……"

  Because the passage of time in the haunted house is difficult to predict, when and what to do depends on their own arrangements.

  In spite of this, the squad leader’s attitude is too leisurely. If you eat and sleep like this, you are not afraid of becoming a fat pig?

   "I see. Xiangyang, you want to watch TV, right? Since it has a power supply, you might be able to watch it."

  She seems to have made a mistake about the meaning in his eyes.

   "Or do you want to watch the disc? I remember you like it very much, why don't you go look for it in the cabinet over there?"

   "No, no, no, I don't need these."

   "Then what do you want?"

   "Of course I want to get out early!"

  He patted his knee, and his voice became louder unconsciously.

   "Don't you think about it?"

"hehe."

  Seeing Xu Xiangyang's anxious expression, Zhu Qingyue laughed.

   "Xiang Yang, do you think I am in a hurry to get out?"

"……Uh."

  The other party showed such a calm attitude, but Xu Xiangyang choked.

  The girl stretched out a finger towards herself and shook it slightly.

   "Have you forgotten?"

"what?"

   "——I said earlier that I brought you here just to skip class."

  Xu Xiangyang stared at the girl's face without answering, with an expression of "what are you talking about?"

   "Also, this is a rare opportunity to be alone with you, you have to pay close attention to it."

  The squad leader turned his head and stopped looking at him. Her voice became light and fluttering, and her tone was as always indistinguishable from the true emotions.

  Yes, she said this when she was on the road.

  But that kind of joke-like remarks, how can I make myself serious?

  Xu Xiangyang scratched his hair, a little irritable.

   "I know, during the last sports meeting, didn't you sneak out to play with Xingjie?"

  At this time, Zhu Qingyue rashly raised a topic that caught him off guard.

   She pouted her mouth and complained:

   "None of you came to ask me. Did you think I didn't find it? Actually I noticed it a long time ago..."

  Xu Xiangyang looked at the girl's white and flawless profile, and listened to her crisp voice, but his thoughts slowly moved away.

  Does the squad leader really know what he’s talking about?

  Even if Xu Xiangyang is an inexperienced innocent teenager, he can feel it, the squad leader is saying these words, it sounds like a girl is eating jealousy.

  The problem is that girls should only be jealous for the people they like...

  That, does Qingyue like herself?

  It is not the first time that he has considered this issue. In fact, when the relationship gets better at first, similar thoughts will occasionally flash out of his mind.

  Of course, Xu Xiangyang now can smile at his naive thoughts at that time. To be more serious, it was just a delusion driven by adolescence's restlessness, and this was the conclusion he reached after introspection.

now what?

  Since the two became friends, the relationship is getting closer every day. If you change to another boy, you will feel overjoyed even if you only realize the possibility that "sir may be jealous".

  Xu Xiangyang was different. He didn't feel happy at all...Uh, frankly speaking, there was actually a little bit, but he knew better that everything was not normal at all.

  Since the squad leader entered the haunted house, her series of words and deeds have puzzled him. Compared to secretly delighting with the squad leader’s unreasonable closeness, the inner confusion prevailed.

  For a long time, Zhu Qingyue is the girl who makes people feel unsure. Xingjie once said that there is a certain invisible gap between each other - that is Qingyue's attitude towards them, a feeling that seems to be affectionate but has not really opened up.

Of course, the three of them are very good friends. Qingyue is very popular in the school, but she and the two of them are undoubtedly the closest relationship. There is no doubt about this; and besides each other, he and Xingjie are no better. The squad leader is more familiar with his peers

   But if it is placed in the three-person interpersonal relationship triangle, once the relationship between her and him, her and Xingjie is compared with the relationship between him and Xingjie, this feeling of detachment will be especially obvious.

  But Xu Xiangyang is not impatient. Because he believed that with the passage of time, the number of times the three people were together increased, and this slightly weird and rigid relationship would definitely be changed.

  "It’s okay, we are still very young, there is still time in the future, and we have countless opportunities to try together...slowly, it will be faster."

  He once said this.

  The fact is, as Xu Xiangyang had expected, the opportunity for change came even faster than he thought——

   is the day when the sports meeting ends.

  Although in terms of the result, he was driven to a dead end by the squad leader that time, and he was embarrassed; however, Xu Xiangyang felt that he had gained a valuable gain.

  That is a little bit of enlightenment, and a little bit of comfort.

  He found that he began to understand Qingyue’s thoughts and her wishes.

  Zhu Qingyue hopes that the two friends around him can be together, and that Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie can become lovers from good friends, and that the connection between him and her will become deeper and the emotions between them will become stronger.

  Although there is suspicion of arbitrarily asserting, the enthusiasm shown by the girl is by no means false.

  Not for oneself, but for others. There is no way to conceal this sincere emotion.

  ——Isn’t this proof that Zhu Qingyue regards him and Xingjie as important people?

  Although this turbulent enthusiasm can sometimes make the parties feel unbearable and may be a bit dangerous from the perspective of bystanders, Xu Xiangyang still feels very happy for her closeness deep in his heart.

But……

  If this is the case, what is her performance now?

  Since Xu Xiangyang fell into confusion on how to deal with Xingjie’s emotions; his thoughts and opinions on Qingyue have once again fallen into a mist.

  Can’t understand.

  He looked at the girl who was close at hand, but felt that her heart was so far away from him, as if she was in another world.

  Qingyue, Qingyue, you are so smart and understanding, your eyes that seem to be able to see through the secrets of others, can't you see my confusion at this moment?

  Can’t you tell me the truth? Even if only once.

  I can't think of anything, and I can't think about any conclusions...

  I am true and really don’t understand what you think.

  "——Hey, I said Xiangyang, should we two sleep in a bed tonight?"

  The voice of the squad leader seemed to come from the sky. She patted the mattress next to her and invited him again.

  The girl's tone still seemed to be joking, her eyebrows were slightly raised, but her cheeks were flushed shyly. She is more charming and charming under the cover of dim light.

  Qingyue, Qingyue, what kind of attitude should I use to treat you now?

  Xu Xiangyang's throat began to dry again.

  Faced with the invitation of the squad leader, he hesitated for a long time, and finally said such a seemingly uncomplicated preface:

   "Sorry, Qingyue."

"Ok?"

  The girl tilted her head and expressed doubts.

  "About me and Xingjie...I haven't decided yet."
