Chapter 10

The three, drenched from head to toe, walked out of the old, dilapidated residential area. Lin Yifan, gripping the revolver in one hand, strode towards a car that was driving towards them.

"Stop, right now!"

Aiming the gun at the driver, the man was so frightened that he slammed on the brakes and raised his hands high, stepping out of the car: "Ya mei... don't... don't kill me, I'll give you everything."

"Get out, leave the car." Lin Yifan pushed the driver away without hesitation and plopped down in the driver's seat. The car owner, terrified, scrambled out and ran away.

Liu Ming and Yao Ling exchanged glances, somewhat surprised by Lin Yifan's decisiveness.

"Liu Captain, you can lie down in the backseat for a while. I'll keep watch with the new one." Yao Ling said, sitting in the passenger seat on her own.

Liu Ming, pale-faced, nodded and lay down in the backseat to rest. In fact, the two of them had taken turns resting last night, and their average sleep time in this world was less than three hours.

Lin Yifan started the car, while Yao Ling, with her arms crossed, stared at him coldly.

Pretending to focus on driving and ignoring Yao Ling's gaze, Lin Yifan felt extremely uncomfortable under her stare.

"Beauty, do I have a curse on my face?" Lin Yifan smiled bitterly.

"Nothing, I'm just looking. Are you feeling guilty?" Yao Ling's eyes didn't blink, trying to see through Lin Yifan's secrets.

"Guilty about what? Just taking your first kiss, right?"

Lin Yifan said it casually, but to his surprise, Yao Ling's face turned bright red, and she turned her head away, remaining silent.

It was a joke, but Lin Yifan realized that this might really be... Yao Ling's first kiss?

Swallowing hard, Lin Yifan lowered his voice and asked, "It's not real, right?"

"It's not real."

Yao Ling's cold response made Lin Yifan breathe a sigh of relief.

"My first kiss was given to a bottle, that doesn't count." Yao Ling shook her head, looking serious.

This... what kind of serious nonsense is she spouting!

Lin Yifan averted his gaze from Yao Ling, and the two fell into silence again. However, from the reflection in the car window, Lin Yifan saw Yao Ling's index finger gently brushing her lips.

Stealthily glancing at the passenger seat, he saw Yao Ling, with wet hair and a haggard face, leaning against the seat, half-closed eyes.

"If you're tired, you can sleep for a while. Nothing will happen for now."

"Okay." Yao Ling replied indifferently, but in this dangerous situation, it was undoubtedly a sign of trust in Lin Yifan.

The car quickly left the old district. Lin Yifan had nowhere to go, but the Kawa family's house was a good place to rest. It was clear that Kawa lived alone.

Parking the car in the courtyard of the villa, he nudged Liu Ming in the backseat and was about to wake Yao Ling when he found her curled up like a kitten in the passenger seat.

Making a gesture to Liu Ming to be quiet, Lin Yifan gently picked up Yao Ling and carried her into the house.

The two TVs facing each other were still in place, and the house was brightly lit, just as it was when Lin Yifan escaped.

Gently placing Yao Ling on the sofa, he said to Liu Ming, "I'll go upstairs and deal with the body. The original owner was killed by Sadako when I stayed here."

"OK."

Under the pretext of dealing with the body, Lin Yifan went to Kawa's bedroom. The body was still lying on the floor, stiff.

Stealthily glancing downstairs, Lin Yifan locked the door and took out the cursed videotape, placing it on the table.

Narrowing his eyes, he examined the tape. Could his ability to transform into a ghost be related to this? But 50 seconds of transformation time was too short.

Gently tapping the tape, nothing happened. Lin Yifan tried talking to it, but it felt silly, talking to a videotape.

Taking a deep breath, he pointed the gun at the tape and said, "Hey! If you don't come out, I'll shoot."

Nothing happened after ten seconds, and it was useless.

Frustrated, he scratched his head. How did that girl come out?

"By the way, what would happen if I watched this tape?"

Lin Yifan swallowed hard, feeling a bit scared. In "The Ring," those who watched the tape were killed by Sadako on the seventh day.

But thinking about it, he only had two days left before he returned. What was there to be afraid of?

Gathering his courage, he unplugged the game console and brought over another TV, replacing the one that had been destroyed.

Plugging it in and turning it on, Lin Yifan took a deep breath and inserted the tape.

Sitting down, his palms were sweating, and he held the gun, ready to fire.

Thinking about watching "The Ring" with a terrifying corpse lying nearby, Lin Yifan felt he should enter a death-defying competition.

Unable to resist, he covered Kawa's body with a cloth, which made him feel a bit better.

Gathering his courage, he pressed the TV's power button, and the atmosphere suddenly became eerie.

"Is it just my imagination, or is my heart really uncomfortable?" Lin Yifan muttered, clutching his chest, sweating.

The TV began to show an image, but it was blurry and unclear. The lights around the room started flickering, becoming extremely unstable.

His face twitched as a cold chill hit him.

"Damn, I really messed up this time!" The atmosphere was off, and Lin Yifan stood up without a word, turning off the TV.

Pressing the button quickly, he found that the TV was still on, and the image inside was becoming clearer!

His pupils dilated, and he yanked the power cord. Even after pulling the cord, the TV remained on, and from the corner of his eye, he could see a figure becoming clearer!

Finished! Really messed up!

Lin Yifan's face contorted as he thought for a few seconds, then raised his gun and aimed at the TV, ready to pull the trigger.

"Ah!"

Lin Yifan was scared but didn't scream. Instead, the "ghost" in the TV screamed first, making Lin Yifan step back several times.

Water sounds came from the TV, and before Lin Yifan could see clearly, a figure sank into the water.

Stunned!

A head emerged from the bathtub on the TV screen, and the girl in the bathtub stared at Lin Yifan, both of them looking at each other for a long time.

"Damn! What's going on!" At this moment, Lin Yifan had to use Liu Ming's catchphrase to express his frustration.

Watching Sadako's tape, but the scene was in a bathroom!

Touching his chin, he wondered if the maid had given him the wrong tape. After all the tension, this scene appeared, what the hell!

Waving at the girl in the screen, she didn't react, so Lin Yifan moved to the front of the TV and stared at the girl in the water.

"Could it just be a regular tape?" Lin Yifan tried to reassure himself.

The girl, with half her head above water, pouted and blew bubbles. Her beautiful eyes followed Lin Yifan wherever he moved.

"Obviously... it can't be a regular tape, right?" His mouth twitched. Watching Sadako's tape, but she was in the bath!

The girl in the bathtub looked at Lin Yifan as if he were an idiot: "What do you think?"

"Ahaha, the weather is nice today."

"You didn't see anything? You saw, right? Right!" The girl, angry, pressed her face against the screen, almost taking up half of it.

Laughing nervously and stepping back, Lin Yifan suddenly saw black hair emerging from the screen. The next second, the girl in the bathtub lost her balance and fell forward.

Black hair floated out, and the girl tumbled out of the TV, her face squished on the floor, her smooth back and buttocks exposed.

"Eh? I... came out?"

The girl on the floor didn't realize that her pink, plump buttocks were still exposed.

Her current position was awkward, with her upper body outside the TV and her legs still in the screen, reminiscent of some strange videos.

The two continued to stare at each other. This time, the girl's face showed a hint of cuteness, touching the floor and then Lin Yifan's thigh, surprised: "Eh? It's elastic and warm, not a dream, I really came out?"

"Cough, little girl, can you put some clothes on?"

Reminded by Lin Yifan, the girl widened her eyes and shouted, "Wait! Don't turn off the TV!"

Lin Yifan looked at the unplugged power cord, feeling frustrated. Even if he wanted to turn it off, he couldn't, as the power was already off.

The girl crawled back into the TV, covered the lens with a curtain, and ran around the bathroom naked. She then put on a dress.

"Okay, okay!" The girl hurriedly pulled the curtain back and leaped out of the TV, landing in Lin Yifan's arms.

The girl leaned in, staring at Lin Yifan's face for a long time, her eyes sparkling: "Oh! Amazing, a warm face, so full of life!"

Lin Yifan's eyes twitched. What was going on? Don't tell me this is Sadako's true form!

The girl touched and rubbed Lin Yifan's face, excited like she was being electrocuted, her body trembling.

"Ha ha ha, it's real! I can touch things in the real world, I love this feeling!"

Watching the girl play on him, Lin Yifan's brain couldn't process it.

Wait, let's start over. First, this is a horror movie cycle world, right? I've been in the story and have been beaten by Sadako, right? The atmosphere has been oppressive and terrifying.

So, please tell me, what is this strange creature in front of me? Coach, she doesn't fit the horror world's style!

"Stop, didn't you come out before? Why are you so excited?" Lin Yifan forcibly pushed the unknown creature off his thigh. She was cold and lifeless, and all signs and her previous words indicated that this was Sadako's true form, even though Lin Yifan didn't want to believe it.

"Before? That was the ghost transformation ability. Being outside isn't the real form, and I can only stay for 100 seconds."

Little Sadako ran around the room excitedly, looking at Kawa's body and flipping through the comic books under the bed, having a great time.

Although he knew her identity, Lin Yifan couldn't help but ask, "So... you are Sadako?"

"Absolutely, hehe!" Little Sadako spun around in front of Lin Yifan, her long dress fluttering, revealing her long, white legs.

It was hard to believe that this cute girl was Sadako's true form.
