Chapter 12: Collapse of Faith
Regardless of the outcome, Yue Ran felt that the information he suddenly received was not accidental.
The stinging sensation in his left eye came again, which made Yue Ran's originally chaotic mind suddenly have an idea that he found very ridiculous.
"It's all true!"
As soon as this idea appeared in his mind, Yue Ran felt that his mind might be really broken.
Resisting the stinging sensation in his left eye, Yue Ran opened the WeChat message sent by Li Yarou.
It was a photo. In the photo, a boy was kneeling on the ground, like a devout believer, worshiping his faith. Opposite him, in the dark corner, a figure could be vaguely seen.
At this time, the shadow hidden in the darkness was looking down at his followers.
From the angle of the photo shooting, it can be seen that Li Yarou's location should be at the entrance of the library.
Through the dim light, Yue Ran recognized the devout believer kneeling on the ground. It was the fourth child who Qian Fei said was happy somewhere, Chen Zhen.
"Is that boy from your dormitory?"
Below the photo is a sentence sent by Li Yarou.
"What's up with him?"
Yue Ran replied, and then stared at the photo again. This time he wanted to see clearly the person in the dark shadow.
Yue Ran quietly removed the gauze covering his left eye, and his pupils shrank, as if he wanted to penetrate the darkness and reach the other side of the truth.
Just as the outlines in the dark shadows became clearer and clearer, Yue Ran's phone vibrated again.
"There's something wrong with him. I'll go over and keep an eye on him first. You and your roommate come over and take him to the campus hospital."
After reading this message, Yue Ran stiffened. He instinctively felt that Li Yarou would be put in danger by doing this.
Thinking of this, Yue Ran immediately sent a message.
"Don't move, wait for me to pass."
After the message was sent, Yue Ran didn't hesitate, immediately jumped out of bed and put on his shoes.
"You also have a date with a girl?"
Obviously, Qian Fei has not recovered from the shock of "Chen Zhen has a girl".
Yue Ran directly ignored Qian Fei's question.
"The fourth child is in the library, not feeling right."
Immediately, he handed the photo sent by Li Yarou to Qian Fei.
"This..." Qian Fei opened his eyes for you, as if he was confirming whether the person kneeling on the ground was Chen Zhen, "It's really him. He shouldn't be with Sun Yiran..."
Before Qian Fei said the word "live", his phone was snatched back by Yue Ran.
"Sun Yiran..."
Yue Ran muttered as he removed the gauze from his left eye again, his pupils narrowed, and his eyes stared at the darkness in the photo.
Gradually, the person hidden in the dark shadows clearly appeared in front of Yue Ran's eyes.
"It's indeed her!"
This is the ability that appeared after Yue Ran's car accident, to see through the darkness.
When he was still in the hospital, Yue Ran, who had insomnia, took off the gauze on his left eye. At that moment, he discovered that he could actually see things in the dark clearly.
Later, he told Li Yarou about this matter, but was ignored in return.
"who?"
Qian Fei was stunned by Yue Ran's actions, and he still doesn't understand what happened.
"What happened to the fourth child?"
"Maybe..." Yue Ran didn't know how to describe it to Qian Fei. He just hesitated for a while and then thought of a word, "Possessed."
"Bewitched! Be possessed by evil? Are you kidding me!"
While Qian Fei was talking, he had already gotten off the bed and had already put on his shoes.
"And who was that you were talking about just now?"
"Sun Yiran," Yue Ran also got dressed and was ready to go, "she is there too."
"She is here? Why didn't I see it?"
Qian Fei was still thinking, he didn't see anyone else in the photo just now, how did Yue Ran know that Sun Yiran was there.
"Let's go to the library and see what happened to the fourth child."
In fact, Yue Ran was a little worried about Li Yarou.
Since he and Li Yarou talked on WeChat, he would take out his mobile phone from time to time to check whether Li Yarou had messaged him back.
"You haven't replied to me yet."
Yue Ran took out his cell phone to check again whether Li Yarou had responded to the message, and then he remembered the message Zhang Xin sent him.
"Could something really happen to Zhang Xin?"
"What are you doing standing around? Let's go."
Qian Fei saw Yue Ran froze in place and hurriedly pulled him back to reality.
"The library is about to close. Let's get Chen Zhen back before it closes."
At 8:45 pm, Yue Ran and Qian Fei entered the library against the flow of people.
"Study room on the second floor."
Yue Ran glanced at the photo Li Yarou took of him on his phone and determined the location where the photo was sent.
Qian Fei is 1.8 meters tall, but has a thin build. He was already out of breath when he followed Yue Ran to the library. At this time, he was dragged by Yue Ran to the second floor of the library.
When they reached the second floor, Qian Fei was like a puddle of mud and collapsed directly to the ground. No matter how hard Yue Ran tried, he couldn't move at all.
"No, I can't walk anymore. I'll rest here for a while."
Qian Fei waved his hand and said nothing.
Yue Ran was not surprised by Qian Fei's state. After all, they all lived in the same dormitory. In the words of their boss, it was just one word - "virtual"!
Yue Ran was worried about Chen Zhen and worried that Li Yarou would wait too long, so he had no choice but to leave Qian Fei here and go to find Chen Zhen.
The study room on the second floor of the library is divided into east and west parts by a corridor. Since there are few students coming to the second floor for self-study, the lights in the study area on the second floor have already been extinguished, leaving only a few safety lights. The indicator light shines dimly there.
Yue Ran pulled off the gauze covering his left eye, which allowed him to see more clearly in the darkness.
Although this might allow him to see some inexplicable things, Yue Ran could no longer care about it at this time.
"Creak——"
The creaking sound of the door shaft turning was infinitely amplified in the silence.
The door to the east side of the study room on the second floor was pushed open by Yue Ran, and a black mist rushed out of the door, hitting Yue Ran in the face.
At that moment, Yue Ran seemed to feel endless despair and hatred, as if he saw countless resentments moving back and forth in the black mist, and as if he heard their unwilling cries.
"Death, death, death..."
Countless thoughts of "death" echoed in Yue Ran's mind. Every word of death seemed to guide him towards the dark abyss. His body gradually became heavier and his mind gradually became groggy. At this time, Yue Ran However, the whole person was completely immersed in the black mist. At this moment, it seemed that only "death" could bring him relief.
"ah--"
A flash of blood flashed through his scarlet left eye, followed by a stinging pain that completely woke Yue Ran up from the sinking state of "death".
