I'm being held captive by a monster

Chapter 25 Wait until we come back, let’s go back together (one more chapter, please read it later)
"The ghost realm has changed. Why has the ghost realm changed..."

Qiao Qiao's long black hair and eyebrows turned silver-white, as if covered with a layer of snow.

"Sister Qiao Qiao, does this mean that the shapeshifting ghost...has given up?"

Zhang Yunxi lit another incense stick.

"...Yes, the ghost domain is equivalent to the territory of a ghost."

"It's like it's giving us to another glutton..."

Qiao Qiao opened the car door and the icy blue rain hit her fingertips.

"……What's the meaning?"

Lin Xing'an asked with a frown, not quite understanding.

"It's like a host-guest relationship. Ghosts are hosts in their own ghost domains, but guests in other ghost domains."

"And the master has the priority right to use humans."

There was a hint of confusion on Qiao Qiao's face.

"That shapeshifter coaxed us for twenty minutes, but gave up when the incense wore off."

"Ghosts are extremely selfish beings. If there is no reason, they will never hand us over to another ghost."

"But now it's actively taking back the ghost domain, just like it's actively asking us to save Orange..."

“Why…”

Qiao Qiao looked towards the waiting room.

yes……

Why……

There must be a reason...

Lin Xing'an shook his head.

"Uh……"

He bit his lower lip as well.

Under the phantom blue rain curtain, despite the refreshing fragrance, he still felt dizzy every time he breathed.

The world before his eyes was no longer static. It seemed that the scenery would change slightly every time he blinked.

It’s like your whole body is placed in a huge piece of blue cream jelly, swaying back and forth.

This feeling, which was similar to motion sickness, made it difficult for him to calm down and think.

"Don't think about it, saving Orange is the most important thing."

Wang Xi picked up Orange's broken phone while standing in the heavy rain.

"Yunxi, how long will it take you to burn incense again?"

"At least... five minutes."

Zhang Yunxi rolled the incense ash between her fingers and said through gritted teeth.

"Okay, Wang Xi, you wait here for Yun Xi to burn incense again. I'll go to the waiting room first."

"Even though the shapeshifter has reclaimed the ghost domain, there's no guarantee it's left."

Qiao Qiao looked around, not letting his guard down at all.

"No, we can't act separately. We should wait for Yunxi to burn incense and then go together. There is still a chance of winning."

Wang Xi calmed down for a rare moment, but Qiao Qiao shook his head.

"This ghost's ability is to create illusions, and it can create an illusion for everyone at the same time, like just now."

"This ability must have a 'switch'. Only when we touch this switch will she pull us into the illusion."

"So if we can't find this 'switch', it won't be of much use no matter how many people we have."

"Keep talking. If anything is found, I'll let you know."

She dialed Wang Xi's other number and put on the earphone in one ear.

"You two just wait in the car and see if there are any clues in Orange's phone."

Qiao Qiao gritted her teeth and said, "If Wang Xi and I don't come back in half an hour..."

"Shh! Shh! Don't say that!"

Zhang Yunxi covered Qiao Qiao's mouth and spoke almost beggingly.

"Yunxi, if we don't come back, please call this number. This is the number of the South City Human Organization."

"They...will come."

Qiao Qiao entered a number into Zhang Yunxi's phone.

But his eyes were somewhat evasive.

Because she knew that it was almost impossible for the organization to send people to confront the gluttons for them, especially in a place like a train station where gluttons gathered.

The risks involved are too great.

"I'll go as well."

Lin Xing'an suddenly opened the car door and jumped into the rain.

"Brother Kid! Don't, it's dangerous."

"……I know."

Lin Xing'an nodded.

"But I need at least four upper-level Taogui to remove the mark on my body, right?"

"It's different, little brother. We can wait until we are fully prepared and feed the gluttonous ghost to you."

"Different."

Lin Xingan paused, his eyes determined!
"If I want to become stronger, I have to go through this, start from scratch, and find the weaknesses of the demons in battle."

"And... I must see what exactly happened..." He pressed his chest, feeling his heartbeat and whispered.

It had been more than half an hour since Teacher Orange rescued him.

With the help of his abilities and Zhang Yunxi's incense, his physical strength has recovered by 50% to 60%.

This was enough for him to perform at least two more death rolls.

Since there is tolerance, he must make good use of it and collect as much information as possible about these two ghosts.

If an accident really happens, it won’t be a wasted opportunity.

"Brother, then follow me."

“…I’ll follow Sister Qiao.”

Lin Xing'an looked at Qiao Qiao.

"it is good."

Zhang Yunxi and Wang Xi wanted to say something else, but Qiao Qiao nodded.

"Let's go, together."

"Bring this with you!"

Zhang Yunxi gave each of them a stick of refreshing incense.

"And... eh?"

She emptied all the books out of her bag and found half a pack of chocolates between the biology book and the big exercise book.

"Little brother, eat something to replenish your energy."

Zhang Yunxi stuffed the chocolate into Lin Xing'an's arms.

"Come on..."

She watched Qiao Qiao and Lin Xing'an walk towards the waiting hall not far away.

Everyone knows the danger of this trip.

But...what can they do?

Without killing the demons, there is no freedom.

"Brother Xizi, if your photos capture what's in the car, we should be able to pass the organization's assessment, right?"

Zhang Yunxi sat in the car and was silent for a long time. Then he looked at Wang Xi and asked.

"...Maybe we need to find a way to get some of the stuff they're shipping to be on the safe side."

"Do you still need to get something..."

Zhang Yunxi's eyes flickered as she looked towards the warehouse behind the station. "Brother Xizi, why do you want to join the organization?"

"To survive."

"Hehe, me too. To survive, to return to Taoyuan Village, to a place without ghosts."

There was a hint of longing in Zhang Yunxi's eyes.

"Brother Xizi, when the day comes to find Taoyuan Village, how happy and blessed I will be..."

"...At that time, Lao Fang must have been the happiest."

Wang Xi suddenly sighed softly.

The car fell into silence again.

The azure raindrops fell, as if the sky had lost its color.

Time passed minute by minute, and the transformed ghost seemed to have really left, without any danger.

In the dark waiting room in the distance, there was no movement at all.

There was only noise in the earphones that Wang Xi and Qiao Qiao used to talk on the phone.

"Brother Xizi, go help them. I can almost light the incense."

"I'll stay here obediently after you light the incense and wait for you to come back. Don't worry, I can still protect myself."

Zhang Yunxi said to him with a smile.

"When we come back, we'll go back together."

Wang Xi's golden hair grew longer, and he suddenly looked bigger. He strode towards the waiting room.

"it is good."

Zhang Yunxi took out three incense sticks from his sleeve.

In his hand, three red incense sticks suddenly lit up.

She didn't light three different incense sticks to turn the car into an invincible realm.

Amidst the curl of cigarette smoke, her figure slowly disappeared into the car.

"Click."

The car door opens.

"pat, pat..."

Footprints appeared and disappeared in the puddles on the ground.

After Zhang Yunxi glanced in the direction of the waiting room, he walked towards the warehouse behind the station where goods were loaded and unloaded.

It is the transit station where batches of goods arriving at the station are loaded and unloaded, and it is also the place where she has focused on photographing and observing in recent days.

Compared to the platform, there are not many gluttons there.

Only the transformed ghost just now was the steward and brought a group of people to guard.

And now...

The shapeshifter was gone.
