Xiao Li: [What did she meet?]

Zheng Yi seemed very upset. [I can't tell... are you free now? Can I bring her to your house to find you if I'm free? I haven't been to your new home yet.]

[...Yes.] Xiao Li was happy to respond.

On the same day, Zheng Yi drove his arrogant sports car to Xiao Li's place. He brought up a girl in a school uniform with a grey face and thick black circles under her eyes. At first glance, she was either haunted by a ghost or had insomnia.

This was the first time Zheng Yi had come here. He was born into a rich family and saw this small house was somewhat shabby. However, the owner of the house was Xiao Li. He had the right to experience life.

The girl sat down on the sofa and Xiao Li poured her a cup of hot tea. "What's going on?"

Zheng Yi didn't care to explore Xiao Li's new home and sat down beside Xiao Li. "She is a junior called Qi Zhu, a friend of a friend. I don't know how to say it so I'll let her explain it."

The girl called Qi Zhu raised his head. The steam of the team covered her eyes but couldn't erase the fear in them. She spoke slowly, "Xiao Li, do you believe in ghosts?"

Xiao Li replied, "I've seen them. What have you encountered?"

Qi Zhu hadn't expected this and glanced at Xiao Li. After a long time, she picked up the cup of hot tea, took a sip and started to tell her story. "Since last month, I have been staying late at school because I want to participate in a math competition. I have gone back after 10 o'clock every night."

"My family isn't good and I had to get a scholarship to enter school. My parents' stall close early in the morning so I take the bus home."

"The bus I take is 20 minutes away from school on the side of the road. The last bus is at 10:35 so I'm usually stuck waiting for the last bus."

"The weather was bad that day. It rained and I didn't bring an umbrella. I was slightly delayed due to borrowing an umbrella and by the time I arrived at the bus stop, it was very late. However, I couldn't afford to take a taxi and it is too far to walk back. I thought I would wait just in case and as a result... a bus arrived."

Qi Zhu recalled the scene and her entire body got a chill.

"The bus looked like an old-fashioned bus. It was old in every way and there was no bus number in front.

"The platform had another bus apart from the one I normally use but its last bus is at 7 p.m. It was long past that time but I didn't think much. I went straight onto the bus."

The girl spoke slowly. As she was speaking, she suddenly gulped the hot tea in her hand and coughed a few times.

Xiao Li handed her a few paper towels. "Speak slowly."

The little black cat was attracted by Qi Zhu's experience. He lay on the group and quietly pricked his ears, looking more and more like a rabbit. Tan Li originally hanging on the curtains was also curious. No one noticed her turning her head to the living room to stare at Qi Zhu.

Zheng Yi heard this and felt some resistance. He took his eyes off Qi Zhu, who was wiping water off her face, and saw the painting above her head. "Did this painting... move?"

At Zheng Yi's words, Qi Zhu's entire body jumped and she started trembling nervously.

"It's nothing, you were dizzy." Xiao Li hinted at Zheng Yi with his eyes and reached for the little black cat, stuffing the cat into Qi Zhu's arms. "You can rest assured that you're safe here."

The warm fur of the little animal in her arms called Qi Zhu. Sweat flowed down her forehead as she slowly continued, "The driver was a middle-aged man and very thin. He had strange spots on his skin. I thought it was skin disease but now that I think about it... he was clearly a corpse."
