Listen to me, I applied for a work-study program this summer and I don't plan to go back home. That way, I can pick you up as soon as you come back. What do you think?
Angel爱淼 13:45:18
Ah Miao, you know I never pester you to be with me, but this time it's been so long, why haven't you shown up yet? I'm really getting angry!
Angel爱淼 13:45:29
Ah Miao, I really miss you. When will you come back? Is it...is it that I did something wrong?
Angel爱淼 13:45:37
Ah Miao, answer me! What do I have to do to get you back?! I really can't take it anymore!
Angel爱淼13:48:50
Ah Miao, I know you're angry with them. They're all crazy. They all say you're dead, but I don't believe it. I've been waiting for you, but Ah Miao, I'm so tired, my heart is aching! Even if you don't come back, please tell me, okay? At least let me know you're somewhere living a good life, so my heart doesn't feel so empty...
Angel爱淼 13:55:17
Ah Miao, I long to hear your voice so much...
Angel爱淼14:01:09
Amiao, do you know? I keep dreaming about you lying on the ground covered in blood. I'm so scared...
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:10:07
Qi... Qiqi...
Angel爱淼14:12:39
Ah Miao!! Ah Miao, is that you? Where are you now? Ah Miao!! It's me, Qi Qi, I'm here!!! Ah Miao!!!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:12:45
Qiqi... Yes, you are Qiqi, I am... I am Ye Miao... I am here now...
Angel爱淼14:12:53
I'm listening. Where are you now? I'll come pick you up right away, okay? I'll let your parents know!
Angel Ai Miao 14:13:00
Ah Miao, are you still there?! Ah Miao!!!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:13:15
I'm still here... Yes, I'm still here...
Angel爱淼14:13:21
Amiao, what's wrong? What happened? Tell me where you are right now!!!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:13:25
I'm here, I really am... What is this? Where the hell am I... What is this thing... What is this thing... Am I alive... What the hell am I?!
Angel爱淼14:13:37
Ah Miao, don't scare me! Of course you're alive, otherwise how could you talk to me?! Ah Miao? Ah Miao!!! What happened to you? Answer me!! Okay, okay, calm down, Ah Miao, let's both calm down, okay? I won't force you, tell me slowly, tell me where you are now and what happened?
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:17:42
Haha...haha...so that's how it is...haha, so this is the curse!!! I finally know what that phrase means!!!
Angel Ai Miao 14:18:00
Ah Miao? What's wrong? What happened? What curse?! Don't scare me, please, Ah Miao!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:18:10
So this is the curse, huh? If I had done it, I wouldn't have died. Maybe... huh, what a wonderful "maybe"!
Angel爱淼14:18:16
Ah Miao, what's wrong with you? Please tell me! I... I'll call you right now! I'll be right there, wait for me, do you... do you have your phone with you?
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:18:24
Cell phone? Ha, I have it with me, but it's useless. You can't call me, nobody can!! Hehe, nobody can call me, yes, nobody can see me, nobody can find me, I am everywhere, and I am nothing at all, hahahahahahaha, what a wonderful world!!! I am God, I have become God!!!
Angel爱淼14:18:35
Ah Miao, please tell me what happened to you! Were you kidnapped? They're not letting you contact your family? What happened to you?!
Angel爱淼14:18:42
Ah Miao?
Angel爱淼14:19:11
Ah Miao, answer me!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:23:05
Qiqi, listen to me. I'll only say this last thing. Promise me you'll listen to me, no matter what I say.
Angel爱淼14:23:13
Okay, I promise you, I'll agree to anything you say! I promise!!! But please don't say anything about the end. You'll be alright, there's always a solution. Let's think of something together, okay? Please, don't give up hope!!!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:23:19
Oh, silly girl, it's too late.
Angel爱淼14:23:23
It's not too late, how could it be too late? You're still alive! There's always a way to save things!! As long as you're alive, anything is possible!!!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:23:28
Yes, as long as I'm alive... Qiqi, I'm not a good boyfriend. I've always wanted to apologize to you. I know I haven't been considerate enough, and I'm too career-oriented. Maybe you've already thought I was a boring person...
Angel爱淼14:23:35
Ah Miao, it's not like that. You know perfectly well that I've never thought you were bad, and you know perfectly well how I feel about you!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:23:48
I'm out of time. Listen carefully, I only need you to do two things. First, don't go online for the next three months.
Angel爱淼14:23:53
Okay, I'll listen to you. I won't be online for a while, but if you come back, you must call me, okay?
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:25:02
If I can come back.
Angel爱淼14:25:07
Ah Miao, don't say that!
Miaomiao Miaomiao 14:25:07
Second, forget me! We...are gone forever.
Angel爱淼14:25:10
Ah Miao!! What are you saying, Ah Miao!! What forgotten, what farewell, Ah Miao!!
The conversation ended there. From then until Zhang Anqi logged off, the ID '喵苗淼妙' remained silent, only Zhang Anqi repeatedly sent the same messages to that ID: "Amiao, are you there?", "Amiao, please say something, okay?", "Amiao...".
Staring at the screen, Luo Lin almost thought she heard Zhang Anqi's silent cry, a heart-wrenching scream. Zhang Anqi's last line of defense, held together by hope, finally crumbled at this moment… So that's why she changed from that fragile yet still bright girl who had been stubbornly waiting for her lover to return just a few days ago to this state? Who exactly is this Ye Miao? Is he the real Ye Miao? If so, then what is the soul following Zhang Anqi? Luo Lin fell into deep thought.
The phone rang at that moment, and a familiar phone number appeared on the small screen. Qing Tong was calling!
"Hey, Qing Tong?"
"It's me. Is it convenient for you to talk?"
"Wait a minute." Luo Lin looked around, stood up, and strode out of the information center computer room under the male teacher's seemingly indifferent but actually curious gaze, stopping at an empty corner of the stairs.
"How are you? That curse..."
"Hmph, there are no problems for now. By the way, I found out some things."
“I also found some things. Listen to me, someone logged into Ye Miao’s QQ ID this afternoon.”
"Ye Miao's?"
"Yes, and that person even spoke with Zhang Anqi. I've saved the chat history and will forward it to you as soon as I get back. I think that person is very likely Ye Miao."
"But isn't Ye Miao already dead?"
"The soul beside Zhang Anqi seems incomplete. I've been pondering this question, perhaps..."
"Perhaps Ye Miao's soul was split apart for some reason?"
"That's possible. What about you? What did you discover?"
“I traced the 21 IDs that Ye Miao forwarded the message to, but they are all still alive and well.”
"Could it be that Ye Miao's disappearance is unrelated to the curse?"
"Not entirely, because the way those people handle messages is quite complicated. Some delete them directly, while others forward them anyway. But there are still a few people who can attest that they did experience some accidents within three days of receiving the messages. However, most of them were minor accidents that wouldn't be fatal, and they can't compare to the care we received!"
"What about these people?"
“I understand what you’re trying to say. Unfortunately, the methods these people who encountered the accident used to deal with the curse were not quite the same, so we can’t determine what principle the curse is based on for the time being. I think there must be a ‘rule’ involved, but we haven’t discovered it yet. However, I have found a clue that is somewhat promising.”
What is it?
"I stumbled upon someone on the street who is under the same curse as you and me. This person just survived a construction site collapse today. Let me state upfront that the collapse was definitely not directed at me, although I still ruined a shirt today."
"I'm sorry, Qing Tong." Besides apologizing, Luo Lin didn't know what else to say. He was the one who had been caught in the trouble, yet now Qing Tong was forced to put herself in danger because of him.
"I've already said, there's no need to apologize. It wasn't your fault. Actually, I was the one who dragged you into this mess in the first place. But it's really a waste of money to keep reimbursing you for clothes and pants every day. You know my firm doesn't make much money..."
"I understand. How about I treat you to dinner tonight?" Luo Lin replied knowingly.
"That would be perfect! Ah, not today. I promised that unlucky guy I'd protect him today, you know? This is his third day already. That guy is inhuman!"
Could he possibly survive the three-day curse in a human body? Luo Lin chuckled to herself, thinking that this person really did have the potential to become a monster.
"Okay, I won't say any more. I'll contact you tomorrow."
