"Morning, Xiao Ming."

"Morning, cabbage."

"Huh?" He Yexiu, who was called a cabbage for the first time, tilted her head a little strangely, but she didn't care about this peculiar title, but looked around, and after making sure that no one paid special attention to the two of them, she reached out and grabbed Xu Xiaoming's right hand, and left the classroom with him who had just come in, "I have something to do with you." ”

"What's the matter?" Xu Xiaoming didn't struggle, just glanced at the classroom casually, and found that Feng Linwan was not in the classroom, and then strode to keep up with He Yexiu's pace, "Can't you say it in the classroom?" ”

"Of course, I can't say that there are many people in the classroom." He Yexiu rolled her eyes, let go of Xu Xiaoming's hand, and walked briskly in front, "I have to find a place where no one is." ”

"Then find an empty classroom, where are we going upstairs?"

"Rooftop, of course." He Yexiu said it crisply and neatly, and even his eyes lit up when he said it: "Of course this kind of secret conversation has to be on the rooftop!" ”

"Do you think you're a strip? The rooftop of our teaching building is locked, and you can't ...... enter" Xu Xiaoming rolled his eyes as he followed He Yexiu to the door to the rooftop. However, before he could finish speaking, he saw He Yexiu approaching the gate that was locked by iron chains with great skill, and then put his foot on the old chain. And then...... Then the chain was kicked off under Xu Xiaoming's stunned gaze, "...... Forget it, when I didn't say it. ”

After He Yexiu kicked the chain, he looked back and smiled at Xu Xiaoming, and then opened the door and walked into the rooftop, Xu Xiaoming looked at her back and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then looked at the chain that was kicked and broken in two, and walked into the rooftop with a resigned face: "Cabbage, if you want to kill people, start decisively, I'm afraid of pain." ”

"What are you talking nonsense? Who is Cabbage? He Yexiu rolled her eyes and said angrily: "And who said that I was going to kill people?" ”

"Aha, but what you're going to tell me about the other day is right?" Xu Xiaoming smiled, "Are you finally ready to tell me the cause and effect of the story, Ye Xiu." ”

"No, I won't explain anything, and you don't have to ask, these words are all forbidden." He Yexiu crossed her hands in front of her chest and casually rejected Xu Xiaoming's temptation, but soon she showed a tangled look on her face, thought for a while before speaking again, and said solemnly: "But I still have to remind you of one thing, if you meet someone who claims to be a research institute, you must not have any communication with those people." The people in the institute are crazy, and the people who help the institute are perverts! ”

"I have mixed feelings to hear you say that."

Xiao Ming said with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.

"Hmph, don't believe it, you'll know it's awesome when you really meet that group of crazy people." He Yexiu seemed to see the perfunctory tone in Xu Xiaoming's tone, and turned around a little angrily, "But that's not the point, what I was trying to tell you was actually something else." Xiao Ming, before the accident that day, did you want to ...... me?"

[Mission release: I'm sorry, but this system really didn't mean to bother you.] 】

[Objective: Containment Mirror Ghost.] 】

[Reward: Generate a new anomaly containment list.] 】

[Task punishment: No, but be careful not to fall off tall buildings, the ground is very hard.] 】

- Why don't I believe you didn't mean it?!

Xu Xiaoming's face was extremely ugly and looked at Feng Linwan, who was the two-headed body in the system screen, and began to apologize, and then looked up at He Yexiu, who had a shy crimson on his face, helplessly pressed his forehead, began to look around the two of them, and interrupted at the same time: "Ye Xiu, have you been here before?" ”

"Huh?" He Yexiu was stunned, "No, it's the first time I've come to this rooftop." ”

"Take out your jade pendant and see if there is any reaction." As he spoke, he strode to the edge of the barbed wire-barbed roof, "Also, watch me. ”

This time he didn't get any clear hints from the system, unlike the last time he encountered an anomalous event, he received an accurate "prediction". After Xu Xiaoming's probing of the system in the past few days (although this pit daddy system is either maintaining without compensation or disturbing him to leave the group), he has basically determined that this system has its own wisdom, and even jokes with himself in the way of task release. But why does it always add private goods to the name, reward, and punishment of the task posting?

— because it is limited and can only remind me in this way, that is...... That quest penalty is a reminder it gave me! "Ghost of the Mirror" and "Don't Fall Off a Tall Building"? I didn't see a mirror, so is the so-called mirror ghost downstairs or will it suddenly appear and push me downstairs?!

Xu Xiaoming's face showed a wisp of inexplicable excitement, and he rushed directly to the barbed wire, grabbed the barbed wire with both hands, and after vigorously confirming its firmness, he cast his eyes on the ground. Then he saw something that shocked him.

It's not the ground that's catching your eye, it's the mirror.

The ground visible to the naked eye is mirrored, and the huge mirror completely turns the whole world upside down, turning the blue sky upside down below, and the earth disappears, leaving only the sky and the sky opposite. This chaotic sense of space made Xu Xiaoming's perception of everything a little confused, but he was sure that his eyesight had improved tremendously. He leaned close to the barbed wire fence and clearly saw himself in the opposite mirror. And not only that, he even saw a few more pimples on his face in the mirror, and a few stubbles that had not been shaved off.

Xu Xiaoming's eyesight is far from good, it stands to reason that he can't see so clearly even if he is close to the height of the teaching building, let alone twice the height of the teaching building. This sudden clarity made his originally excited brain calm down a little, and he wanted to take a half step back and confirm with He Yexiu whether it was just the scenery that he could see or the abnormalities that everyone (at least the two of them) could see. But before Xu Xiaoming could take this half step, he saw a black shadow suddenly appear behind him in the mirror, not humanoid, but at least with a right arm - because it stretched its right arm towards Xu Xiaoming!

Xu Xiaoming subconsciously turned around, but he didn't see anything, and at this moment he realized the mistake of his choice: the things that can be called mirror ghosts naturally live in the mirror world.

But this momentary error of judgment made him miss the opportunity to stay away from the edge of the rooftop, Xu Xiaoming only felt that something grabbed his shoulder, and then he couldn't control his body, the thing that grabbed his shoulder began to exert force, lifting him, and Xu Xiaoming, who couldn't control his body, let alone resist, even had no way to ask for help, so he could only let the force lift himself up and cross the barbed wire. From the perspective of others, this scene is as if Xu Xiaoming himself tried to cross the barbed wire, and those who do not know may even think that he is going to commit suicide by jumping off the building.

But at least He Yexiu was not so stupid, she listened to Xu Xiaoming's words and took out the jade pendant, and this jade pendant really lit up the moment Xu Xiaoming approached the edge of the rooftop. This carrier of the anomaly, who is also particularly special in the eyes of the members of the research institute, is certainly not an uninformed person, and she has even more experience than Xu Xiaoming expected. When Xiao Ming began to jump off the building, she started from the spot, took a few steps under her feet, and came behind Xu Xiaoming like lightning, and gently jumped to hug Xu Xiaoming, who had crossed most of his body over the barbed wire, and then fell back to the ground on the roof with him.

When Xu Xiaoming moved away from the edge of the rooftop, the control he had lost over his body suddenly returned, and at the same time, the ground he could see was once again familiar to him, not a mirror.

And He Yexiu stood up, slapped off the dust on his body casually, looked at Xu Xiaoming, who was still sitting on the ground, frowned and asked, "What happened?" Why did you jump off a building? ”

"Something got hold of me and dragged me to throw me downstairs." Xu Xiao concisely explained to her the mirror land and the ghost of the mirror he saw, "All in all, the edge of the rooftop is dangerous, don't approach it." ”

"Well, I understand." He Yexiu nodded, then took out his jade pendant and showed it to Xu Xiaoming, "It lit up when you just jumped off the building, but now it doesn't light up, and if it doesn't light up, it means that the anomaly didn't have any ability at this time." ”

"So I just triggered the conditions for it to happen?" Xu Xiaoming fell into deep thought, "But what if you are close to the edge of the rooftop and see the land of mirrors?" Or did it touch the barbed wire? Or did I see myself in the Mirror Land? I don't understand......"

- And the mission goal released by the system is to contain the ghost of the mirror, what is containment? How to contain it? Does sealing the rooftop count as containment?

"Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming? Xu Xiaoming! ”

"Huh?!" Xu Xiaoming, who was deep in thought, was awakened by He Yexiu on the side, he looked at her a little confused, but dumbly saw that the other party stretched out his hand to him and grabbed his collar, "What are you doing?!" ”

"It's dangerous here, let's go first." He Yexiu said extremely calmly, while dragging Xu Xiaoming, who was still sitting on the ground, towards the exit: "If you don't know the details of the abnormal event, it is easy to kill you rashly. ”

Xu Xiaoming was stunned and asked strangely, "Huh?" But it's clear that they've discovered an anomaly, so is it really okay to just turn around and leave? What if there are any serious consequences? ”

"First of all, we don't have the means to solve it, and secondly, this anomalous event is currently harmless as long as you put a letter on the rooftop, if it really has the ability to go berserk, I can feel it at any time with a jade pendant. In the end, as long as you and I leave, it won't attack anyone! It's been able to exist for so long and hasn't been found by the research, mostly because of this. He Yexiu pursed his lips, and then said with a chuckle: "Rookie, solving abnormal events is not the most important thing, saving people is!" ”
