"Forget it. It's not nice for me to ask my sister for a gift just because we met by chance. It seems too materialistic. I appreciate the kindness, but you don't need the gift." Ling said after a roundabout way of saying no.

Don't accept gifts from strangers when you are out there. Lingke will not be tempted by small profits and fall into all kinds of scams that are hard to guard against.

"It's a bit sad. The gift I'm talking about is just a few words." said the white-haired girl.

"Hey? Is the gift a few words? Then sister can tell me." Ling replied.

The white-haired girl stretched out her hand and raised two fingers: "The second to last row of the bus, by the window, gives you a clearer view."

Ling was confused. Isn't it that the driver's seat has the clearest view?

Excluding the driver, the front row can see more clearly, so why is it the second to last row?

Ling was too embarrassed to expose the lie directly, so she could only pretend to agree: "Yes, is that so?"

The white-haired girl added, "Actually, it doesn't matter where you sit. The second-to-last row just gives you a clearer view of the bus. You know, the last bus will ask if there are any passengers getting off at each stop. When you're sure the bus is about to arrive at your stop, respond promptly to the driver's instructions."

Ling was puzzled and retorted, "Isn't there a button on the bus to remind people to get off? When people see they are about to reach their stop, they press the button. The driver will know someone is getting off and will stop the bus and open the doors."

The white-haired girl smiled even more happily, with an intriguing expression.

"Oh, that's right. The get-off button is for people. Everything on the bus knows that only people push the button."

Only humans push buttons, so what's wrong with that?

Ling was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly seemed to remember something. She turned to look at the white-haired girl and asked doubtfully, "Is it what I'm thinking?"

"Who knows?"

"Then I'll walk home."

"Hasn't anyone told you that you can't escape from this kind of thing? If you know about it, you should know you can't escape. Even if you were on a plane right now, flying thousands of meters above sea level, you would still arrive at this platform, and the ghost bus would still drive in front of you. You have no choice."

Ling just stood up and took a few steps, but stopped when she heard the white-haired girl's words. She pursed her lips and returned to her seat on the platform, suppressing her fear.

At the same time, Ling quickly glanced around and found something unusual.

Quiet, too quiet.

This is the city center, and even at night you won't be completely deserted.

Not to mention the idle people who are still out drinking and eating barbecue at one or two in the morning, even among ordinary people, there are some workers who can only catch the last bus because of overtime.

But is there anyone nearby?

Oh no……

Ling suddenly realized that she had unknowingly triggered a ghost's pattern and stepped onto the platform. But without Sister Beichen's help, how could she possibly escape from this mysterious incident on her own?

No, calm down. Ling, you can do it. As long as you observe carefully enough, you may be able to find the flaw.

Ghosts cannot be killed, so you cannot harbor any hope of killing them. You can only find loopholes in the rules and exploit them.

and many more?

Ling turned around and looked at the white-haired girl, pointed at her and said, "Aren't you the same as me? We both triggered the law, otherwise how would you get here?"

The white-haired girl nodded. "Yes, but don't ask me what the triggering rules are. I don't know either. Sister, we are now in the same boat. Do you like this gift?"

Ling's mouth twitched as she looked carefully at the white-haired girl, trying to see some fear and sadness on her face.

But it ended in failure. Her composure was as if she didn't care about the patterns of triggering ghosts. But what was her confidence based on? Was it because she knew all the patterns of the car and therefore knew how to avoid being attacked by ghosts?

Ling was still confused, but the white-haired girl directly pointed out her doubts.

"Don't worry, I only know part of it. There are many patterns in the killings in cars."

"Since you're still sitting here talking to me, it means you at least know how to survive. However, this method is only a temporary solution and won't completely help you escape these two buses. That's why you're sitting here again."

Hearing Ling's analysis, the white-haired girl pursed her lips slightly, cast an admiring look at Ling, and shook her index finger: "Sister, you are very smart, but you are only half right."

"Which half?" Ling asked.

Her analysis was well-reasoned and accurate, so why was she only half right? She wanted to be completely right or completely wrong.

"Every half of every sentence." The white-haired girl answered truthfully with a faint smile on her lips. "You will know it later, provided you can get off the bus alive."

"Can you give me some tips, sister~~ I think you are very beautiful, even prettier than Beichen sister~~"

Ling took the initiative to move closer to the white-haired girl, put her arms around her and gently shook her body.

Chapter 51 Ghost Bus

The white-haired girl smiled faintly: "Being cute is useless with me, you can only..."

Before she finished speaking, Ling shook her body and the photo in her pocket slipped and fell to the ground. The white-haired girl keenly captured this scene.

The white-haired girl's smile disappeared instantly, and her blue eyes stared straight at the blurry figure in the photo.

She bent down and picked up the photo on the ground. After confirming the person in the photo, she turned her head and stared at Ling, then looked at the photo again, revealing an intriguing smile.

"Is the person in this photo your boyfriend?"

The person in the photo is very young and is wearing a school uniform. The only visible pattern on the school badge is Qianyu Middle School.

The sleeves were wrapped around her waist, the coat was tied around her waist like a scarf, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, looking very sunny.

Ling was stunned, and out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of the white-haired girl's fingers clutching the photo tightly.

Does she know me?

No, she asked me if I was my brother's boyfriend... Could it be...

Ling suddenly became very angry. Li Mo had clearly sworn that he would never fall in love or find a girlfriend before he found his sister.

Although I didn't take it seriously, you should at least tell me about it. What's the point of doing it secretly?

"No, he's my brother." Ling muttered angrily, "Do you know my brother?"

The white-haired girl suppressed her frivolous smile and closed her eyes, as if she was recalling some scenes from her memory.

"Of course... I know him."

"Since we're all acquaintances, it's easy. Please help me, sister. You don't want my brother to see his sister's body when he wakes up... No, he might not even find my body... Don't worry, I won't cause any trouble for you, sister. You just need to give me a few pointers."

Ling gently tugged at the white-haired girl, trying to impress her.

Since the other party has taken the initiative to clarify the relationship, it means there is still room for communication.

The white-haired girl laughed dumbly and stood up from her seat. On the left, a bus with its high beams on was slowly moving towards them. The dazzling white light shone on them, but it seemed extremely dim.

"The bus is coming soon. Once you get on, forget most of your human habits. You are a smart person and should know what to do."

Forget most of human habits?

Does this mean that I should forget my human identity? But why not forget it completely?

Ling was puzzled. Maybe the other party didn't understand it very well either, so he only knew that this was accurate.

When dealing with ghosts, the accuracy of information is very important, and she may not dare to make rash judgments about the authenticity of other rules.

However, since you have said so confidently that you should forget most of the human habits, then if you follow this rule honestly, you should be able to live for a long time and even get off the bus alive.

Ling thought so in her heart.

"By the way, sister, I don't know your name yet. My name is Ling, the Ling in Dingling." In order to show her sincerity, Ling took the initiative to tell her real name.

The white-haired girl repeated Ling's name meaningfully, then shook her head helplessly.

"My name is Kallen Kaslana."

The bus made a horn sound, as if to remind the "people" inside the bus to get off, or perhaps to remind the "people" on the platform to get ready to get on the bus.

Soon, the bus stopped in front of the platform and opened the boarding and exit doors at the same time.

The strange thing is that the bus did not make any noisy mechanical roars like the buses in human society. The ghost bus in front of her was very quiet, and Ling could not even feel the heat of the bus body.

The air around here had turned cold, luckily Ling was wearing enough clothes.

"No..." Ling wanted to ask Karen when she would get in the car, but when she saw Karen put her index finger between her lips, she immediately understood what she meant.

Keep silent and don't speak.

Speaking is a major habit of human beings, relying on the propagation of sound to communicate.

But ghosts don't need that. Due to the rules, they can easily peek into each other's memories and "extract" their own memories at any time.

They don't need a brain to store memories. Memories will not disappear or fade in their rotten souls.

Whenever you want, you can bring out complete and fresh memories.

Lingping took a deep breath and focused on observing the situation in the car.

There are twenty-six seats in total, and only five are vacant.

However, three people got off at this stop, and after Karen and I get on the bus, there will be six empty seats on the bus.

Ling looked through the car window and saw how the people inside got out.

The two people in the third-to-last row and the one person in the first-to-last row got off the bus one by one in order.

The two people in the third row from the bottom should know each other, but the third person is a stranger, so only the first two people were talking and communicating during the process of getting off the bus.

"Do you think it's nice outside, but it's also cold. Has the weather turned cooler recently?"

"Whatever, let's go home first. It's freezing in the car, and the driver has the air conditioner on the lowest setting. If the car wasn't so quiet, I would definitely go and argue with the driver."

The two men got off the car cursing, but nothing strange happened when they got off. Ling watched them walking farther and farther away like normal people.

Nothing happened? But they were clearly talking like real people just now...

The driver didn't move, the ghost bus didn't move, and even the other passengers on the bus didn't move at all.

Then why did Kallen forbid herself from making any sound?

Ling was very puzzled, but out of trust in Li Mo, she temporarily chose to believe Karen.

Moreover, Kallen herself didn't say anything, so Ling remained as she was, saying nothing.

Soon, the third person walked out of the car. He stretched out one foot and put it on the ground to maintain balance. This is the normal behavior of a normal person getting out of a car.

Ling didn't pay much attention, but what happened next made her eyes widen. The man's feet were only broken bones. The moment his feet touched the ground, his whole body began to shrink. Gradually, only a pool of blood, mud and rotten flesh remained on the ground.

But he didn't say anything? Why did he become like this?

and many more……

wrong……

A terrible thought came to Ling's mind. She hurriedly turned around to look at the two people who had just left while talking and laughing. There were shadows on the ground.

Unlike the third person, the shadows behind them... were four.

What are the two extra shadows?

The first two people spoke when they got off the bus, and their identities as living people were known.

I could still see that they were fine, probably because they didn't talk on the bus, and didn't leave the platform after getting off, or maybe they couldn't leave.

The third person was silent and it seemed that he probably didn't speak in the car. So why did this happen after he got off the car?

"beep--"

The ghost bus is about to depart, and the horn sounds in my ears.

Ling turned around and saw that Karen had already entered the car through the front door. Without any hesitation, Ling immediately followed.

Imitating all of Kallen's actions.

There were two steps to the car, and Ling observed Kallen carefully.

First lift the left foot, then the right foot, until both feet are on the same step before repeating the same action again to climb the last step.

I see……

Living people go up the stairs one step at a time, but such behavior will be recognized by the ghosts on the ghost bus, and they will be attacked when getting on the bus.

If you want to reach your destination safely, you have to disguise yourself as one of their kind.

After getting on the bus, Kallen walked straight to the second to last row, where there were exactly two seats left.

Ling took a deep breath and followed Karin. She paid a little attention when passing by the driver's seat. The driver was wearing a mask and sunglasses, so she couldn't see his face clearly.

It was very cold inside the train, and most people were bundled up. At least... that was what was visible.

Ling sat next to Kallen in the second to last row by the window, while Kallen sat on the side.
