Time passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was nearly ten o'clock in the evening, and the ten people in this incident gathered in the reception hall.

The day's rounds still yielded nothing, and nothing had changed inside the manor.

At this time, everyone sat on the sofa in the middle of the living room, and sat in a circle as they had discussed before.

Everyone is looking intently at the clock or at their phone.

Among them, Yao Feifei and Qian Wanning were holding the manuscript in their hands tightly, which was already a little wrinkled, while staring at the clock interface on their mobile phones that was advancing forward second by second.

Finally, the hour hand fell on top of the number 10......

It's ten o'clock!

The voice rang in everyone's hearts.

But the living room suddenly went dark!

In an instant, only a few mobile phone screens were left in the entire empty hall, and the faint light source on the screen was left.

"Lights...... Why are the lights gone?! ”

Zhong Lei was the first to speak, his tone full of horror.

For some reason, the few light sources that were there were soon dimmed one after another.

"You ...... Are you okay? ”

Liu Dongyue's voice also sounded cautiously.

"Don't be afraid, we're all here."

Chen Rongxuan turned on the flashlight function on his mobile phone, which made the people around him feel a little more at ease.

"Let's take a look."

Chen Rongxuan turned sideways and said to Lin Sheng, then got up and walked to the direction where the switch of the lights in the hall was located.

After a few clicks, the light source in the hall still showed no sign of lighting up.

"Is it tripping? Do you want to check it out? ”

Chen Rongxuan was a little puzzled, so he asked Lin Sheng beside him.

Lin Sheng noticed something-

Although less obvious, the environment inside the main building has clearly become a bit older after the power outage.

Hiding this point in his heart for the time being, Lin Sheng replied to Chen Rongxuan beside him:

"No, I think...... This is supposed to be the so-called 'Strange Talk Time', we can't leave the reception hall now, otherwise we will be violating the rules on the letterhead, and the 'Strange Talk' must start immediately, let's go back." ”

Regardless of Chen Rongxuan's reaction, Lin Sheng walked back first, and Chen Rongxuan thought in place for a few seconds and then returned to the sofa area where the others were.

Everyone had turned on the flashlights one by one, and Yao Feifei and Qian Wanning were quickly scanning the manuscript in their hands, as if they were making final preparations.

Lin Sheng sat down in his original position.

Not long ago, after he noticed that the environment was plunged into darkness, several people, including Tao Tongguang and Li Guang, immediately turned off their phone screens.

Are you worried about being a priority in the dark?

didn't care too much about these, but used his spare eyes to take care of Gu Xinyu and Liu Dongyue on the side, and then focused on Yao Feifei and Qian Wanning.

In complete darkness, ten people sat in a circle in an abandoned manor in the middle of the wilderness.

It's really a weird rally......

Lin Sheng looked at the nine people who were solemn in the scene and thought silently.

This incident is in some ways similar to the original humanoid event, and the pace of the event was not very fast at the beginning.

But anyway...... The first strange story in this incident is finally about to begin.

Qian Wanning took a few deep breaths, and after a discussion between the two, due to Yao Feifei's poor state, this strange conversation was only told by her alone, and Yao Feifei was responsible for handing over the draft paper.

"The strange talk we brought is called 'The Bride in the Phone Booth'......"

A cold wind suddenly blew through everyone's location, filling everyone's body and heart with coolness at the same time.

The doors and windows of the main hall were tightly closed at this time, and the appearance of this gust of wind seemed to be some invisible existence, announcing the official beginning of the first strange story:

All...... Originated from a street that was not prosperous.

It was late at night, and we left the office after working overtime, only to find that the direction we used to go home was cordoned off for renovation.

Forced into desperation, we went the other way.

We actually got home much faster by going that way, but we never had that before.

Because that street is now very few pedestrians day and night.

Although not so long ago, it was not bustling with people, but it was still quite a lot, and from time to time there would be pedestrians passing back and forth, which is by no means the less accessible it is today.

We are well aware of the reason why pedestrians are scarce...... It's because there's a weird rumor on that street.

I don't know how it got around, but someone who claimed to have witnessed it all posted the story on the forum, so much so that many people have heard about it directly or indirectly.

It was a bride who found out about her husband and girlfriend's cheating behavior on her wedding day, so she secretly ran away from the wedding scene.

Under the bewildered and surprised gazes of other passers-by, she ran down the street.

The high heels with the white wedding dress had been completely lost at some point, and she stepped on the cold road in the deep winter with her bare feet, wandering aimlessly, wandering.

Subsequently...... An old telephone booth standing on this street was found.

In this year, the number of phone booths has become very scarce, and most of these things that once provided convenience for pedestrians have been completely dismantled.

Only a very small number of outlets have been left to cancel the call fee, so as to facilitate the provision of telecommunication services in various special or emergency situations and do some public welfare for the society.

Most of the time, phone booths exist as relics of an old era that have not been obsolete.

But as it happens, this time she came out with barely anything.

Probably thinking of this, she walked in like a ghost.

The phone booth had been left unmaintained for a long time, and the interior was covered with tiny pieces of rusty and exposed metal, apparently ...... She didn't seem to be welcome here.

She looked around blankly, then picked up the receiver and dialed out a number.

The call was answered quickly.

"Xiaoyuan? It's you! ”

A man's voice came out, "Xiao Yuan, where the hell have you gone, everyone is worried about you!" ”

"...... you," the bride asked, sobbing as she held the earpiece, "love me?" ”

"Of course, come back quickly, don't lose your temper."

The man's voice on the other end of the phone seemed to be very hurried, as if the other party was moving quickly outside.

"Then why are you...... Still going to be with her the night before the wedding? ”

"I drank too much, I was stupid, and she was still ...... Really, Xiaoyuan, you have to trust me. ”

The other party's voice seemed a little helpless, and the bride couldn't tell whether the other party was guilty or for other reasons.

"I respect your custom and don't see you the night before the wedding......"

The bride's trembling tone paused slightly.

"But she was in my house, lying on my bed, holding my new husband......"

Immediately, she gritted her teeth and said:

"Now everybody is there, if you're willing to call her a slut in front of them...... Then I'll be back shortly. ”

"Really, don't make a fuss, everyone here is waiting for you."

The cacophony on the other end of the phone suddenly disappeared, and the groom seemed to have walked somewhere quiet.

"She's sitting at the wedding banquet right now, looking at the jokes I make, maybe a minute and a second with a mocking look on her face...... But I don't care, I just want to know...... Do you love me or not? ”

"Love, of course love."

"Will you marry me?"

"Of course I do, Xiao Yuan, otherwise what are we doing here for?"

"You promised me...... Will do anything for me. ”

"Of course, except for the current one, it will make everyone think that you are making trouble."

The man seemed to be a little impatient, and the woman's speech on the other end of the phone made him feel that the other party was a little too messy.

"For you...... I'm being vexatious right now......"

"Listen to me, when you come back, we'll finish the wedding process, and then you can make any fuss you want, but it's ...... now"

"Noisy?"

The man was interrupted before he could finish speaking, and the bride's tone sank as if she had lost hope.

"For you...... I...... It's fooling around...... Is that right......? ”

The scene fell silent.

The man didn't know how to answer, but after a moment of contemplation, he spoke again to break the silence.

"Listen to me...... Xiao Yuan, I told you before, you are too emotional and not rational enough, and this matter, the current scene, is exactly what needs to be calmed down the most...... Can you understand me? ”

After the man finished speaking, he found that there was no sound on the other end of the phone.

"If you really can't let go...... You can punish me, as long as you can come back, whatever. ”

The other party still did not answer, and the man only heard a faint cry from the other end of the phone, and the sound of paper being torn not far from the microphone.

"Xiao Yuan?"

He knew that the other party had torn off the amulet.

It was given to me when I first met her.

It's also something she loves the most, so much so that she always carries it with her, even if she is wearing a wedding dress, she secretly hides it on her body.

Is this a punishment?

If so...... It doesn't hurt either.

"I tore it off...... Tear off the amulet you sent. ”

After a long time, the bride spoke slowly, with a voice that kept sobbing as if her heart was in pain.

"I know, it's okay, you can just take your breath."

The man quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's ...... The most precious thing in my life. ”

"It's okay, it's just a talisman...... As long as you like it, after the wedding, we will ask for a few more, as long as you come back soon. ”

"There will be no ......"

"What won't there be? It's at Jinyuan Temple, I'll take you there right away when you come back! ”

The man didn't read the other man's disillusioned tone.

"Really ......"

The next moment, the man seemed to hear the sound of metal being broken, and the sound of liquid spilling after slashing through a spot.

Faint...... But it's all real.

"Never ...... Not anymore......"

The last words in the woman's life seem a little vague and leaky.
