Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 37 Fog

In June, the weather is getting hotter.

Lin Yilin didn't seem to think so. She still wore the black coat that was too big for her. This was the only part of her clothing that hadn't changed since Zheng Fan met her.

It's not that Lin Yilin doesn't know how to dress up. The combination of her clothes always shows the youthfulness of her age in all aspects. She doesn't even look like a female college graduate. She gives people a younger impression, like the legendary JK, a female high school student.

At this time, the scar on her face was a bit of an eyesore, and her dull expression also made people feel it was a pity.

But Zheng Fan thought they were all good.

The scar looks special, but the expression is not a problem.

He is not the kind of person who would shout, "You are so pretty, just smile more" or "You look better when you smile." He does not believe that from the bottom of his heart. Beauties with different temperaments will naturally express themselves differently.

It is too much to sentence someone to death just because they can't laugh. In Zheng Fan's memory, there was a classmate who was like a robot. He was so handsome that he didn't look like a real person. But because he couldn't laugh, people kept saying that he was frigid. It was completely nonsense.

After the Kannetong remnant party incident in early June, Lin Yilin's accumulated achievements yielded remarkable results.

Her success rate in accepting tasks on the official website has increased significantly. Some commissions can only be handled by one firm at a time. When trying to accept such commissions, the official website system of the processing bureau will screen them.

Firms without a track record will be at a disadvantage when it comes to such commissions, and Lin Yilin was stuck in this situation before.

The increase in impressive commission records has also increased Lin Yilin's weight on the official website of the processing bureau.

The snowball keeps getting bigger and bigger.

And these commissions regarding supernatural phenomena are basically a process of opening a blind box.

Not all commissions that appear to be paranormal phenomena will ultimately turn out to be paranormal events.

For example, not long ago, Lin Yilin grabbed a commission about "vampires".

This made Lin Yilin very excited.

Fantasy races seemed to be relatively rare in most cities. Vampires, which were very common in fantasy stories, were not the case in most cities.

It's not just vampires, all the more specific fantasy creatures that Zheng Fan can think of are like this.

Hallucinations often present things that are closer to abstraction than concrete. Fantasy objects are slightly better, but they are also extremely limited.

On this basis, fantasy creatures and fictional races with pre-set abilities and general images can indeed be called rare things.

This made Lin Yilin very happy.

When I got there, I found out that the child was just suffering from vitamin deficiency and his gums were bleeding, and the condition was just slightly more serious than that of normal people.

At the strong request of the child's parents, Lin Yilin had no choice but to use supernatural methods to help treat the problem of bleeding gums.

Zheng Fan, who was watching from the side, exclaimed: “Approaching Science”.

For some firms, this kind of blind box is actually a good thing, because the processing bureau will not deny the legitimacy of the commission due to misjudgment of the reasons for the commission.

All completed commissions will be recorded as part of the performance, but the weight will be slightly lower than that of serious supernatural events.

For most firms, being able to get official recognition by doing just a few trivial tasks is a "why not do it" thing.

But it is hard to say whether it is due to Lin Yilin's interest.

It would be fine if she had nothing to do, but she didn't like the feeling of making a wasted trip.

It would be better to stay in the office and listen to Zheng Fan tell stories from his world.

"It's been a bit humid lately, so what kind of geographical location is Dadu? The climate is weird." Zheng Fan was lying on the sofa and looking at the fog outside, wondering. The hot and humid weather is the most unbearable. Although Zheng Fan can't feel it now, the toast next to him is very sensitive to humidity.

Because it’s toast.

Of course toast will get damp.

He looked a little wilted, his body looked limp, his appearance was no longer as perfect as before, and his spirit was noticeably weak.

It won’t get moldy, right?
Zheng made groundless associations.

"Dadu is Dadu, the center of the world." Every time Zheng Fan asked about the details of Dadu, Lin Yilin would repeat this sentence.

Lin Yilin, who was sitting at the desk reading a book, said: "As for the weather and climate, there is no fixed number. It mainly depends on which world you come into contact with during the season. For example, during this period of time, part of the water world is in contact."

Except for the violent world and the black world which come at the end of the month, the overlap of other worlds is relatively random.

It would be better to say that this capricious world is the most common "weather" in the world.

As she spoke, Lin Yilin turned her head and looked out the window: "The fog seems to be getting thicker, could it be a foggy world?"

"Didn't you say Water World?"

"The Mist World is a world that often takes advantage of the Water World to overlap with it. There are many stories about the Mist World in Dadu."

"That's it..."

"It's just like the movie 'The Mist' that Mr. Hallucination talked about before. The streets are covered with thick fog, and all kinds of things may be hidden in the fog. If you happen to bring out a little bit of the black world, it will be easy to produce hallucinations and fantasies." Lin Yilin narrated.

"It's reasonable that people will naturally feel fear of the unknown when visibility is low," Zheng said.

"By the way, you haven't commented on the ending of the movie The Mist yet. You were in a hurry to get off work right after I finished talking about it last time."

"The ending where all the companions committed suicide in despair and the hero freed his own child himself, but he was the only one left and yet he was rescued?"

"Hmm." Zheng Fan nodded.

"It's not a very strange ending." Lin Yilin said after thinking for a while, "There are too many people who succumb to fear in despair. I don't think they made the wrong choice. It's just that fate played a joke on them."

"What would you do if it were you?"

"I will think about watching all the monsters from other worlds in the fog. Whether I die in the process or am lucky enough to be rescued, the ending doesn't matter." Lin Yilin stroked her bangs lightly, and then said curiously: "But from what Mr. Hallucination said, this movie is pretty good, but it still lacks a bit of meaning when I hear it recounted."

Zheng Fan nodded in agreement: "Yeah, movies are really only fun if you watch them by yourself. But, the premise is that they are good movies. If they are bad, you will just feel that your life has been wasted."

"It's a shame, but even if it's a bad movie, it can be considered a way to kill some time, so it's not completely useless."

"Just like the 'vampire' incident yesterday for you?"

"…So Mr. Illusion is beating around the bush just to amuse me?"

"I don't know." Zheng Fan couldn't help but laugh.

He stood up from the sofa: "By the way, I am almost familiar with the previous abilities. I will perform a magic trick for you."

"Magic? I can see through most magic tricks at a glance..."

"That might be different. Anyway, lend me your bank card."

"…What kind of magic requires a bank card?"
