"Are you crazy?"

Ai Hong stood up angrily, her face flushed, and shouted, "Why did you bring this thing in? Why did I come to you this morning? Get out of here!"

"Sister Hong, Sister Hong~"

Liu Haifeng rushed over after hearing the sound and said hurriedly, "What's wrong?"

"See for yourself~"

Ai Hong pointed at the invitation card and ghost coins in Shi Lei's hand and said angrily, "I am going to decorate a new house for my wedding. What do you mean by coming here with paper money?"

"He also said that I gave it to you. If I am sick, you are still sick!"

"What a bad luck, get out of here, get out of here!"

After saying that, Shi Lei couldn't allow Shi Lei to explain anything, so he was kicked out by Ai Hong.

"Brother Lei~"

Liu Haifeng said angrily, "What's wrong with you? Why did you bring the paper money to someone's new house? Do you still want to do this business?"

Shi Lei did not answer Liu Haifeng, and kept thinking over and over in his mind Ai Hong's every move just now.

Ai Hong's reaction was normal, which meant that the Ai Hong in the dream was not the same Ai Hong.

Who could it be?

Why did she fall asleep with the image of Ai Hong?

"Brother Lei~"

Seeing that Shi Lei was ignoring him, Liu Haifeng shook his shoulders vigorously and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Shi Lei thought of something again and said, "I'm going out for a while."

"where to?"

"Soup!"

"Why are you going to make some soup!"

"Don't worry about it, go back first~"

In the countryside, Shi Lei got off the bus and saw an old man walking slowly with his hands behind his back.

Shi Lei stopped, handed the old man a cigarette, and asked: "Old man, is there a man named Xu Wei in your village? He is in his twenties and is getting married soon?"

"Yes~"

Without thinking, the old man raised his finger and pointed in the distance and said, "It's right over the village committee. I saw him coming back from my morning walk. Can I take you there?"

"Oh~"

Shi Lei became even more disappointed after hearing this, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No, no need."

Shi Lei didn't know Xu Wei at all. He just wanted to verify Ai Hong's words. Since Ai Hong's words were true, there was no need for him to go to Xu Wei.

It was already afternoon when we returned to the Red Man Space Design Studio.

Shi Lei sat in front of the computer, looking at the invitations in the drawer, and sighed in his heart, "Since I can't find the root cause, then... I can only enjoy it with my eyes closed."

Shi Lei decided to wait.

Wait for the third one to have Ai Hong's dream, and wait for the other Ai Hong to tell him the location of the ghost marriage.





However, the third dream never came. When Shi Lei was enjoying the wonderful life in Lu Town, he discovered a shocking secret. He could no longer sit still and decided to confess.

It was still 6:55 on April 4, and Liu Haifeng appeared on time.

Before Liu Haifeng could hang the spicy soup on the chair, Shi Lei said to him: "Come, let's watch a movie?"

The movie is Groundhog Day!

Liu Haifeng looked at it inexplicably. While watching it, he said: "Brother, I have watched this movie. Let's make the design drawings quickly. Sister Hong is waiting for us!"

"If it were you~"

Shi Lei pointed at the computer and asked, "What would you do?"

"Needless to say? If it were me, I wouldn't go out and spend every day in this town doing whatever I want..."

Liu Haifeng's answer did not surprise Shi Lei at all, so he told the whole story.

"Brother Lei, what do you mean?"

"You became a groundhog too??"

"real or fake?"

"Really~"

Shi Lei nodded solemnly and said, "I am trapped in a time loop just like the movie!"

"Really?"

Instead of being afraid, Liu Haifeng was extremely excited. He took Shi Lei's hand and said, "Then... did you rob the bank?"

"How many girls have you picked up?"

"How much money did you make??"



Seeing Liu Haifeng's excitement, Shi Lei couldn't be happy at all. He took out two mirrors, one facing himself and the other handed to Shi Lei, saying: "You use the mirror to look at my mirror!"

"What do you mean~"

Liu Haifeng was confused and took the mirror, then adjusted the angle and looked at Shi Lei's shadow in Shi Lei's mirror.

This didn't matter, "Ah~" Liu Haifeng exclaimed, with horror in his eyes.

Because he could see clearly that after two refractions, Shi Lei had aged a lot, his temples were gray, and his eye sockets were even sunken, like a skeleton...

Liu Haifeng threw away the mirror and looked at Shi Lei again. He was still a handsome young man in his twenties.

"what happened?"

Liu Haifeng was so frightened that he took a few steps back.

Shi Lei calmly put down the mirror, lit a cigarette, looked at the sunshine outside the window, and said: "At first I was just like you, first I felt fear, then I felt curious, and finally I felt excited. I even found Groundhog Day to take a closer look. …”

Speaking of this, Shi Lei suddenly asked Liu Haifeng: "Do you remember the VIP room in Kunlun Yaju where the bathroom is surrounded by mirrors?"

Liu Haifeng was startled for a moment, then nodded reflexively: "Remember...remember~"

"When I was in that room and saw myself reflected in the mirror~"

Shi Lei said calmly, "All the excitement turned into fear!"

"Why did you go to Kunlun Yaju?"

"It's 8,000 a night there. Who did you go with?"

Liu Haifeng asked a barrage of questions, but none of them were crucial.

Shi Lei gave him a glare that could kill someone.

"That is to say~"

Liu Haifeng shrank his neck and pretended to be profound, "Even if you kill me now, will I still show up tomorrow?"

Shi Lei smiled hoarsely, put out the cigarette butt in his hand, and said, "I've watched too many movies~"

Liu Haifeng chased after him, looked at the paused scene on the screen, and asked, "Have you never tried it?"

"I'm not that boring~"

Shi Lei shook his head and said, "What if something happens? Besides, I can't do anything!"

"Good brother~"

Liu Haifeng hugged Shi Lei and said, "Don't worry, I'll help you, let's eat first."

After saying that, Liu Haifeng took the spicy soup hanging on the chair and went out to find a bowl.

Shi Lei didn't follow. He picked up two mirrors and pointed one at Liu Haifeng's back and the other at himself. Reflected by the two mirrors, a skeleton was walking struttingly in the mirror.

"Alas~"

Shi Lei sighed, put the two mirrors on the table, and said to himself, "Brother, if it weren't for this, how could I be willing to walk out of such a wonderful April 4th!"

"I really can't figure out what happened!"

"Tomorrow is April 5th, which is Qingming Festival. Who will hold a wedding on Qingming Festival?"

"Do you need to say more?"

"Of course it's a ghost marriage!"

"The problem is~"

Shi Lei picked up the invitation and the ghost coin, looked at it again and again, "No matter what method I use, I can't find the answer."

"Even if I burn it and tear it up, it will still be there at 6:55 the next day."

"What's even weirder~"

"Ever since that Ai Hong came over the first and second time, she has never been here again."

"I wanted to wait, but I can't wait now~"

Putting down the invitations and coins, he walked outside the door and looked at the increasingly lively intersection under the sun. Shi Lei remained silent for a long time.
