My Endless Life.

Chapter 359 The flaw revealed

"Li Qi? What's wrong? Hurry up and don't be late. If you are late, Lao Zhao will deduct your bonus again."

Ma Chen didn't know what Li Qi beside him was thinking at that moment. He looked at Li Qi's stunned expression and reached out and patted him on the shoulder as a reminder.

Li Qi came back to his senses from his brief shock.

He looked at Ma Chen, and suddenly raised his hand and asked Ma Chen:

"Did you lose your wallet?"

As he spoke, he opened his hand and revealed Ma Chen's wallet.

Ma Chen looked at Li Qi in astonishment. He subconsciously touched his pocket and quickly took out his wallet:

"It was indeed me who dropped it, but how come I didn't know when I dropped it?"

"Maybe you were too engrossed in what you were watching just now. Who were you looking at? Meng Xiaoya?"

Reacher said someone's name.

That was the name of a female colleague that Ma Chen liked.

Ma Chen couldn't help but look a little embarrassed when he heard this: "...How could that be possible? Everyone knows that she is close to the manager. How could I dare to look at her casually?"

I don’t dare, nor do I want to.

Li Qi glanced at his colleague, his fingers moving flexibly.

Although the extraordinary abilities cannot be used, those abilities acquired through training are still there.

Some acquired martial arts that do not require any strength, cheating techniques learned in the gambling world, and musical skills and acting skills learned in the music world, these are things that nightmares cannot take away.

The nightmare just blocked Li Qi's extraordinary abilities in some way, but it did not really seal all of Li Qi's abilities.

The evidence is that now Li Qi's consciousness can leave this nightmare at any time as long as he wants.

Although doing this might make it impossible to return to this 'dream town', it is still a way to leave here.

But now Li Qi has no intention of leaving.

He wanted to see when this nightmare would end.

Following Ma Chen into the elevator, Li Qi arrived at the floor of his company and sat at the workstation he had not seen for a long time.

At that moment, Li Qi seemed to have forgotten all the past and returned to the boring life of a corporate slave.

He skillfully turned on the computer, opened the software to edit files, and did the tasks that he had almost done to the point of being sick of it before.

Day after day, year after year.

During this period, Li Qi did not use the abilities he learned in other worlds, whether it was cheating, musical skills, or combat skills, they all seemed to be forgotten by him.

Reacher is adapting.

He remembered that there was a very popular saying that the way to eliminate fear is to face it. Although this saying was outdated to him at that time, the truth was correct.

Only by facing what scares you can you become stronger.

Li Qi didn't realize until now that there was such a big hole in his heart. If he didn't find a way to adapt to it, get used to it, and fill the hole in his heart, if he encountered a similar situation in the future, he would probably have big problems.

That's why Li Qi did nothing, immersed himself in this nightmare, and got used to these boring and annoying daily routines.

Gradually, Li Qi really adapted to this nightmare.

He seemed to have become a truly ordinary person, unremarkable, going between home and company every day, with no social activities outside of the company, and no other entertainment activities after get off work except playing games.

Just like this, it is the life of most people in the world.

Li Qi was deep in a nightmare, with some inexplicable feelings in his heart. He suddenly realized that sometimes getting used to being ordinary, understanding being ordinary, enjoying being ordinary... is also "extraordinary" in a sense.

He felt that the missing piece in his heart seemed to be gradually being filled.

until……

When he was watching TV one night, a female ghost with disheveled hair and white clothes appeared from the TV.

"Ah."

When he saw the female ghost crawling out of the screen, Li Qi didn't feel scared, but laughed instead.

He looked at the female ghost and spoke as if he was talking to her or someone else:

"Seeing how much I enjoy this place, you can't help it? So you come up with this low-level way of scaring me?"

As Li Qi spoke, he drank the Coke in his hand, threw the discarded can into the trash can, and said with a smile:
"Besides, you know what I'm afraid of. That is, there is no supernatural power in the world, and there is no way to obtain supernatural power. But now... you have brought supernatural power to me, so do you think I will still be afraid?"

As Li Qi spoke, a bright light flashed in his eyes. Under that light, the female ghost in front of him looked like a pencil drawing erased by an eraser, disappearing in front of Li Qi little by little.

"If you create ghosts and monsters, it means that this world has supernatural powers, and if this world has supernatural powers, it means that I can use supernatural powers, so..."

Having said this, Li Qi's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he shouted in a shocking voice:

"Get out of here!"

The sound is like a huge bell, awakening the deaf.

The sound waves were like an all-destroying shredder, destroying everything it touched.

Endless darkness emerged again, but this time the darkness could not get close to Li Qi!
Not only that, the darkness near Li Qi was slowly disappearing and melting, like snow exposed to the sun! When the darkness completely dissipated, a corner of the white dress appeared in the depths of the darkness.

Li Qi slowly raised his hand and reached for the white dress. Although he seemed to be raising his hand slowly, he actually reached the white dress in an instant!
Li Qi, who has returned to his childish appearance, grabbed the white dress that appeared in the darkness with his small hands.

But the next moment, there was a ripping sound, and the white dress broke in the middle, and everything after that disappeared into the darkness.

Li Qi only had a corner of the white dress left in his hand.

Then, the darkness disappeared, the moonlight fell on Li Qi, and he appeared in the town again.

"Running pretty fast."

Looking at the white gauze skirt in his hand, Li Qi chuckled and curled his lips.

There was a hint of disdain in that smile.

Obviously, the person behind the scenes who controls the strange object can always pay attention to the situation in the dream. She may not know what Li Qi’s sweet dreams and nightmares are, but she can tell whether Li Qi is still under her control.

So seeing that Li Qi turned a blind eye to the nightmare and even enjoyed it, she finally couldn't help but take action.

The method of attack was also very common, which was to use the ghosts that most people feared the most as a way to scare Li Qi.

But the result is obvious.

When the opponent reveals a flaw, Li Qi will quickly seize it and magnify it infinitely, thereby giving the opponent a fatal blow!
This is indeed the case. If the other party had not run fast, she would have been caught by Li Qi.

But it doesn't matter even if she runs away, Li Qi has already caught her, and now he just needs to find her.

Yes, find her.

Li Qi can be sure that the user of the strange object is in this town, and she herself is hiding among the "survivors" in the town. This may be because of the price of using this strange object, or perhaps because of some of her hobbies.

Anyway, among these people in the town, there must be her true self.

However, even though he knew this, it was still difficult for Li Qi to find her. After all, Li Qi had only heard her voice, but he didn't even know whether that voice was hers.

Even on the question of "she" or "he", Li Qi has not figured it out yet.

Maybe the voice that spoke to Li Qi before was just her disguise. It is very likely that 'she' is not a woman at all, but is using a female voice to mislead Li Qi.

It is also possible that she is a woman but uses a man's identity in the town.

Because of the existence of these possibilities, Li Qi is temporarily unable to confirm the identity of the person behind the scenes, but it doesn’t matter. As long as she is in this small town, Li Qi will eventually catch her.

"I have memorized your scent. You'd better hide it well, otherwise..."

Grasping the piece of white dress in his hand, Li Qi crushed it into the purest spiritual consciousness and integrated it into his body.

This piece of white dress is the manifestation of the spiritual will of the person behind the scenes. Li Qi has already memorized the aura in it.

Therefore, as long as the man showed any flaw again, Li Qi could catch him immediately.

As for before catching that person, Li Qi planned to have some good fun with that person here.

Anyway, at the moment, they still have plenty of time.

……

Li Qi felt that there was still plenty of time, but the person behind the scenes seemed to be getting restless.

Just the day after Li Qi returned to the town, an accident occurred in the town.

Someone died in the forest outside the town during the day.

Li Qi didn't pay attention to the situation on the other side. Anyway, such a situation occurred in this area which was safe during the day and dangerous at night.

The town mayor Vincent immediately took the matter seriously.

Not only Vincent, Lin Hui and Lisa also took this matter very seriously, because from the time they entered the town until now, the law of "daytime is safe" has become common sense in everyone's mind.

No one would think that an accident could happen during the day.

But now someone died during the day, which means that the town is no longer absolutely safe during the day.

If this matter is not handled properly, it will cause panic among everyone.

"How did Cole die?"

Arriving at the woods outside the town, Vincent frowned and asked the first witness who found the deceased.

That was a resident of the mansion, a college student in school uniform.

His name is Jamie. During the holidays, he followed his classmates to the Ghost Town to seek excitement, but ended up being trapped in the town and unable to leave.

Jamie was a freckled young man with slightly curly hair. He looked at the corpse covered with a white cloth and said with trembling lips:

"I... I don't know. I was... I was exploring the area with Eric and the others, and then... then I saw his body! It wasn't me! It really wasn't me!"

Jamie shivered.

Vincent sighed when he heard this.

He did not doubt that Cole's death was related to Jamie. It had nothing to do with whether he trusted Jamie, but because no one would doubt Jamie, the first person to discover Cole's body, just by looking at it.

After all, the obvious signs of being bitten by some wild beast cannot be faked by humans.
