There are rumors.
At midnight on a rainy day, if a person looks in the mirror with a strong desire, what will appear in the mirror will not be their own reflection, but the thing or scene they desire most. If he keeps chanting the incantation and praying silently in front of the mirror at this time, the magical mirror will realize his wish and make his dream come true.
This is the version Lin Jiaojiao told Wu Ming before. The latter occasionally mentioned it once or twice when teaching senior students in extracurricular classes. From those students, he learned that this is also a version widely circulated in the streets. .
Of course, as an urban legend, it naturally has many similar variations. For example, what appears in the mirror should be the destined lover, rather than the things and scenes that the heart desires; or there is no need to have a strong desire or desire at all. Just look in the mirror at midnight on a rainy day, and the mirror will naturally reflect the desires in your heart and help you realize them; there are even black outlines of figures reflected in the mirror, which will drag people into the mirror world and disappear, etc. Wait for this kind of thing...
But the core of these urban legends is generally the same: if you look in the mirror with strong emotions in the middle of the night on a rainy day, the mirror will definitely reveal magical properties.
Of course, if he really followed what the urban legend said, Wu Ming could not verify whether the mirror would undergo incredible changes.
Because it has never rained during this period, there is no way to verify the authenticity of the rumors...
But today the opportunity came.
The entire Yandu was covered with a layer of rain. From the drizzle at first, to the torrential rain when the weather forecast issued several warnings for heavy rain and strong winds, Yandu was under the cover of rain almost all day today.
The classmates around Lin Jiaojiao who liked to commit suicide made their purchases early and came to Yao Jiasi's house as agreed before. Her parents were away from home on a business trip recently, so they could come and hold the long-planned trial. Bold conference.
And they also said hello to their families and would stay at Yao Jiasi's house today.
The courage test meeting + urban legend practice + high school girls' night talk that they have been looking forward to begins here.
Five little girls in different clothes were gathering in the bedroom. After dinner, they drew up the curtains, filled the low-leg table with snacks they had purchased early, turned on their mobile phone flashlights, and told ghost stories in the dim environment. Kill time.
The windows were clanking and shaking under the strong wind outside. Even if the doors and windows were closed indoors, you could still hear the overwhelming sound of the trees outside being damaged by the strong wind. Thunder and lightning would pierce the sky from time to time, bringing a moment of light, but in A brief burst of light will be followed by a deafening thunder, followed by an explosion.
Lin Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in this environment, but she couldn't help but feel relieved when she thought that a reliable expert was secretly protecting her.
Naturally, it was impossible for Wu Ming to follow Lin Jiaojiao at all times, and from a moral perspective, he could not accept following them like a pervert all the time, so he sent a stealth spy to automatically follow Lin Jiaojiao.
The invisible agent will follow Lin Jiaojiao throughout the whole process to monitor her vital signs and the fluctuations of extraordinary power in her surroundings. Once her vital signs become abnormal, or if there is any interference of extraordinary power, causing the fluctuation of extraordinary power to exceed the threshold, the agent will Send an alert to Wu Ming, who will immediately teleport and jump based on the positioning data returned by the probe, and immediately rush to the scene for disposal.
This can be regarded as the experience he learned from the office's observation station network. The difference is that the office's observation station only monitors events that will have a profound impact on the process of civilization, and will only issue an alarm when the degree of distortion reaches a certain value. Let the operators go and deal with it. Things like playing pen fairy, dish fairy and mirror fairy actually attract extraordinary creatures. Because the degree of distortion is too low, it is often ignored by the observation system...

"Later, the man who woke up from his dream was so frightened that he called the police. After listening to his words, the police led people to break open the wall, and finally found a female mummy in the wall..." Yu Shaoxue, who has beautiful short hair, told about the ghost Story, the light of the mobile phone flashlight reflected on her face was inexplicably weird, "The clothes of the mummy were exactly the same as the girlfriend the man had a while ago, the same dark blue cheongsam-like dress, the same black cat on the wrist Hanging ornaments, the testimonies of neighbors indeed proved that they had seen women dressed in this way entering and leaving men's residences in the past year or two, but the forensic doctor determined that the body had been dead for at least five years..."
Then she gently turned off the flashlight of her mobile phone.
After hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao whispered to the side: "As long as you are brave, the female ghost will take maternity leave. This male protagonist is too reckless... and I think the police officer who smashed the wall without saying a word is also It's quite reckless. If there are no corpses in the wall, how should we calculate the subsequent compensation for smashing the wall..."
Next to her, Yao Jiasi was wearing a pair of pajamas that could cover her whole body. She felt uncomfortable from beginning to end. At this moment, after Lin Jiaojiao raised her head, she was finally able to spit out her old words: "Where are you? It’s called a ghost story, but it’s obviously a ghost story. And I really think you made up the part about a female ghost falling in love with a man.”
"Yao Jiasi, please pull him down! You obviously agreed to tell a ghost story, but you still told a campus gossip."
Yu Shaoxue rolled her eyes, picked up the pillow at hand and threw it at Yao Jiasi, but the latter quickly dodged it with a grimace: "Haha! You can't hit me~"
The other two little girls who felt the same also started talking about it.
"Actually, I think what Xiaoxue said is pretty good. Aren't there ghosts who hope to get help from others to seek justice, satisfy their regrets, and then die peacefully? This is the ending in some horror movies. It's better than those that always curse others to death. The ghosts are much more friendly..." Xu Qin pouted and commented while finishing the last two potato chips in the bag.
Lu Siyu, who was sitting next to her, shuddered involuntarily: "I feel a bit scary... This state of not knowing that you are dead and thinking that you are still alive is really scary..."
The time has now reached midnight. Although the wind and rain outside have become lighter and less violent than a few hours ago, the vibration of the wind against the windows has been reduced a lot, and the trees outside the house no longer moan like before. Yu Shaoxue yawned and took out her phone to check the time. Seeing that it was close to midnight and early morning, she quickly waved her hand to stop their busy discussion: "Okay, okay, stop making trouble, it's almost time. Let's Why don't you start the next one?"
"Next item! Do you want to play the magic mirror game?" After hearing that he was finally going to try something new, Yao Jia immediately became energetic.
Xu Qin frowned in confusion: "But there are five of us here. Can we play the magic mirror game together? Or do we have to play one by one?"
"Okay, why can't we play together~" Yu Shaoxue smiled mischievously, with a cunning light flashing in his eyes, "There is no urban legend that says that several people cannot look in the mirror together and invite the magic mirror... Come on, come on First clear away all the snack bags and other things on the table. Oh yes, the table should also be cleared. We will move Yao Jiasi’s full-length mirror over to play the magic mirror game later..."
…………
Ten minutes later, the snack bags and low table had been cleared aside, and a full-length mirror was placed in the middle of the bedroom.
Yao Jiasi's full-length mirror is not very big, but due to the placement and positioning, everyone can find their own figure in the mirror.
They had been waiting in front of the mirror for several minutes. Lu Siyu and Yao Jiasi were a little scared at first, but as time went by they found that the mirror had not changed and gradually calmed down.
"It feels like it's not a big deal..." Yao Jiasi, who was so frightened just now that he didn't dare to breathe, has now completely mastered the rhythm of the whole scene and started to swell again.
"Do you think we did something wrong? For example, we had to recite a spell or something?" Xu Qin looked at the mirror for a long time without any change, and couldn't help but guess.
Lu Siyu: "It's almost enough... Since there won't be any changes, there's no need to keep trying..."
"It looks like it might be a lie..." Yu Shaoxue, who had been waiting for a long time but didn't see any changes, was also a little disappointed, but still suggested, "Urban legend says it's midnight and early morning, so let's wait a few more minutes until midnight..."
Although she said this, the disappointment in her tone could be heard that she no longer had any expectations for the result of waiting.
Of course, Lin Jiaojiao, who had been paying close attention to all abnormal phenomena, felt a little disappointed but also a little relieved.
The reason for disappointment is that exciting extraordinary events are obviously not so easy for them to encounter, and the reason for relief is also the same. Not encountering extraordinary events means avoiding danger...
Time passed by midnight, just when they were about to give up, Lin Jiaojiao relaxed.
A sudden change occurred!
The mirror reflecting the scene in the house suddenly seemed like a lake where stones were thrown into it. When the mirror shattered, circles of ripples from the inside out also spread on the mirror!
