this is just a book im reading and need the audio function! so dont waste time here im already in chapte 55 or something

The hall was filled to the brim with people; there were still people downstairs, and the elevator kept bringing new visitors. At 10 am, the proprietor for Tian Teng Medical School finally appeared. He was of average height, had a short haircut, and looked to be in his thirties.
There were two models in revealing nurse costumes trailing behind them. Even though their make-up was startling white, their eyes never stopped releasing electricity. The man tried the loudspeaker and stood at the steps before the entrance of the Haunted House and said, "Everyone, thank you for your kind support. Tian Teng Medical School has always maintained…"
Chen Ge's eyes scanned the two models. He was not going to pay attention to the man's introductory speech. He was thinking about designing a pretty and sexy costume for Xu Wan when his Haunted House had its next activity.
The man talked for two to three minutes before finally getting to the point.
"Our team optimizes the Haunted House every six months. With the aid of a professional foreign team, all the scares are updated, and as the proprietor, it is my responsibility to tell everyone that Tian Teng Medical School is scarier than all the other Haunted Houses available on the market!
"We strive for the most realistic terror, unlike certain unethical Haunted Houses who rely on online water armies to brush up on their popularity. They think that this was clever, and some did fall for the dirty tricks, but to be honest, I find this behavior laughable!"
Chen Ge was getting impatient from all the slander. He nudged forward through the crowd, but there were too many people. Finally, he reached the ticket seller. "One ticket please."
"Did you book a ticket online?"
"No."
"I'm sorry, today's tickets have all been sold. How about you stay until afternoon? Perhaps there might be an opening then."
"The tickets are all gone?"
The proprietor continued to speak on stage. "If the Haunted Houses on the market are first generation, my Tian Teng Medical School is a fourth generation Haunted House that combines many high-end technology!
"Today is the first day we're opening our doors for the citizens of Jiujiang. To let everyone have a clearer understanding of the situation, I'll randomly select four visitors to experience the Haunted House with an audio recorder and a portable electrocardiographic monitor! Through the speakers that are connected to the audio recorder and the cardiograph broadcasted on screen, you'll be able to see for yourself how scary our Haunted House is!"
Before the proprietor finished talking, there was already cheer from the crowd. It was hard to tell whether this was a set-up or not.
"There's a code behind every ticket, and we'll select the lucky ones with a randomized code generator." The man nodded to the sales counter, and the workers started to do their work.
Chen Ge saw everything with his eyes. The man stepped on his Haunted House to bring himself up, and he could not take that lying down.
"Wait!" Chen Ge raised his hand and walked onto the stage. "You said earlier that your Haunted House is scary but other Haunted Houses depend on online water army to brush up on their popularity. That, I don't agree with."
The man frowned. If not for the crowd, he would have called for security to haul Chen Ge out.
"I am the boss of Western Jiujiang's House of Horrors, the owner of the Haunted House that you're happily slandering online. The day before yesterday I just hosted a livestream that has more than 600,000 viewers."
When Chen Ge walked to the stage, there was a familiar voice from the crowd that called out. "Boss‽"
Chen Ge followed the voice and saw He San and Gao Ru Xue standing in the crowd.
"Why are you here?" Chen Ge was baffled. He San was openly supporting his enemy. "If you want to experience a Haunted House, why didn't you come to me?"
He San did not know how to explain himself. He could not openly admit before the proprietor of Tian Teng Medical School that Boss Chen's Haunted House was too scary. His class was still having nightmares from their previous experience and thus decided to come to another Haunted House to seek some relaxation.
The man took this in as well. He had already recognized Chen Ge. "Looks like your Haunted House is not that popular; even your own friend won't support you. Fine, if you insist on learning some tricks from us, we're willing to provide you with this opportunity. Don't say that we're not generous people."
The man was clever. Since they dared slander Chen Ge's Haunted House online, they obviously knew of Chen Ge. By letting Chen Ge into the Haunted House, his intention was clear. If Chen Ge was scared inside Teng Tian Medical School, he could use this as a point of promotion and forcefully yank the customers from Western Jiujiang's House of Horrors. Chen Ge had the same idea as he did; they both wanted to persuade the other's visitors to come to their own.
Due to the recent livestream, Chen Ge's Haunted House had become a hot item online, but he knew that the popularity would not last for long. At most, it would last for a week. Even though Tian Teng Medical School was not as popular as Chen Ge's Haunted House within Jiujiang, they had a large national popularity and a number of loyal fans like Su Su.
"Come, help him put on the audio recorder and heart monitor." The two models walked toward Chen Ge. "Now, we'll pick the remaining three lucky visitors."
"I don't think that's necessary." Chen Ge shrugged. "Challenging a Haunted House alone is more fun. If you can manage to scare me, I will admit that my Haunted House is not as scary as yours on my website and promote your Haunted House for a whole month."
The man was intrigued by what Chen Ge said, but he was cautious as well. He was sure Chen Ge was up to something. "How are we going to gauge that we've managed to scare you?"
"You've installed the heartrate monitor, right? The normal heartrate when a person is walking is between 60 to 100. When they're scared, the oxygen in their blood will drastically decrease, and the heart will pump faster." Chen Ge looked at the man and calmly said, "If my heartrate ever rises over 100, I'll lose."
"You have a deal." The man did not give Chen Ge any chance to change his mind. Even a small jog would bring a man's heartrate over 100, much less being scared. From how he saw it, Chen Ge was bound to lose.
"Don't be so hasty. If I lose, I will admit your Haunted House is scarier than mine online, but what if you lose?"
"Don't worry, if we lose, we'll also admit that our Haunted House is not as scary as yours online." The man pointed at the crowd. "Everyone here can be your witness."
"Actually, I still have one small request." Chen Ge smiled innocently. "I think that you still have some misunderstandings about my Haunted House. I hope that your team will be willing to come visit my Haunted House. I've added a new scenario, and it hasn't been opened to the public yet."
"Okay, no problem," the man promised easily and earned affection from the crowd. Only He San and Gao Ru Xue had a curious expression on their faces. Looking at the man, they saw themselves in the past overlapping with him.


The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. 
At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered. "Landlord, is this what you meant by 'the house can be a little crowded at night'‽"

"Welcome. Thank you for purchasing our product. The scanning is beginning. Please wait a moment.
"Scanning completed. Citizen ID confirmed: SH13*313. Name: Feng Bujue. Downloading equipment: NL 2055 Model, Single-use Gaming Hub, no detection of additional hardware. Heart rate normal. Nervous connectivity program readying. Please select the connection type.
"Connection type selected as non-sleep mode, adjusting… Adjustment completed. Please confirm to log into the game or return to the main menu.
"Program initiating. Entering the game in ten seconds…"
After the countdown completed, Feng Bujue entered the game world. He was deposited in an environment that was a simulacrum of an elevator, but there was no level panel next to the door. Instead, on the wall to his side, there was a thirty-two-inch touchscreen. On the wall that was opposite the display was a large mirror, reflecting the player's image from head to toe.
Feng Bujue look at his reflection in the mirror. He had morphed into a 3D CG character with a high resolution. He was wearing a black, long-sleeve T-shirt and long jeans; there was nothing eye-catching about him. His gaming avatar looked similar to how he looked in real life. He was just shy of 1.8 meters tall with ruffled, unkempt hair. His facial features were soft, and some might even call them feminine.
With the support of the fourth-generation photon computer, players who were connected to the game could enjoy a five-sense experience that was close to reality, but ultimately, the game relied on CG technology. Thus, it was unable to really plant the players into actual virtual reality.
"Welcome to the game's log-in lobby. These are all the gaming options provided by Dream Inc. Please select to log in to the one that you prefer." The system audio began again, and selectable icons appeared on the touch screen next to him.
There is only one option available. Why do they waste time to introduce this extra step? Is this a sign that the company will introduce more games in the future? Feng Bujue thought to himself. He used his finger to click on the only option—Thriller Paradise. 
"The age of players who log into this game has to be more than sixteen years old. Dream Inc advises against those with heart disease, mental illness, or similar serious illnesses interacting with this program."
This sentence appeared on screen, and the system audio repeated it one more time. After that, three icons appeared on screen—one was 'Log-in Confirm', the other was 'Cancel', and there was a conspicuous link next to these two that said 'General Disclaimers'.
"Mental illness, it says," Feng Bujue said to himself. "Perhaps I should look at this."
He clicked on the third option, and a wordy legal document immediately jumped up on-screen. Just looking at the scroll bar on the right-hand side, he knew that this was going to be a lengthy read. Normally, when people came into such disclaimers or explanations while playing games, eighty percent of them would close it directly or drag the cursor right down to the bottom and then click on 'agree'.
But Feng Bujue was not a normal person.
He was 24, a novelist specializing in detective fiction. His hobby was to proclaim himself shamelessly as an 'artist' or a 'Great Scribe' when people asked him about his career. However, these were not the main points. Instead, one should focus on why he was unique from others.
First, the reason he played this game was to cure his 'illness'. Of course, his illness was not the typical internet addiction but a real, recorded disease. Starting from about two months ago, Feng Bujue had suddenly noticed a weird change to his body. He had used three days to confirm that he had lost the emotion known as 'fear'.
The scariest image and audio he could find was unable to stimulate him. He had skimmed through a parade of horror films and books and coupled them with his imagination to scare himself, but it was to no avail. It was as if a door in his mind had been closed. He clearly knew why certain things were scary and understood why other people would be scared by then, but the sensation of fear would not come.
Therefore, he had gone to the nearest hospital for a check-up, and that was when this whole journey began. The MRI had shown that there was a shadowy spot in his brain, just adjacent to his amygdala. The doctors had then brought up the possibility of a brain tumor.
After that, Feng Bujue had gone to about four of the largest hospitals within the nation to get multiple opinions. None of them could provide him with a clear diagnosis, but they did give him many choices of treatment.
After many exams and many diagnoses from many famed doctors, Feng Bujue had a general understanding of it. This illness of his was meant for the medical history records. As the patient, he had two things to consider. Number one, which doctor should he give the naming right of his illness to, and number two, should he contribute his body to the advancement of science after he passed away?
Two months passed by, and the shadow in Feng Bujue's brain did not change; it did not worsen, nor did it shrink or disappear. His other bodily function was fine. In fact, he could be considered perfectly healthy. After giving it some consideration, he had decided to opt out of the treatment and left the hospital. Since losing the sense of fear was the only symptom, and no one could confirm whether this was fatal or not, he decided to surrender his fate to God.
One day, Feng Bujue stumbled across a closed beta advertisement for Thriller Paradise. The slogan at the time was 'A gaming mode that goes beyond the traditions by placing you right in the middle of fear and despair, which stick to you like shadow, to let you experience fear like you have never experienced it before.'
Following that, he went online to investigate the game further. He watched a professionally-produced promotional video that claimed that it had made many children pee their pants before. It was then that he noticed the link that read 'Purchasing the latest gaming hub will entitle you to a closed beta account.'
Even though it sounded superfluous, the main reason Feng Bujue entered this game was not to 'play-test'. Mainly, he was there to be 'scared'. He did not have high hope for this—he just had this thought that perhaps in this supposedly scary environment, he could regain his sense of fear.
Of course, if that was everything that was wrong with Feng Bujue, he would only be called a patient, but the reason he was 'unique' from others was more than his brain tumor. This was because before he fell ill, he was already different from others. To put it frankly, he was undeniably… a weirdo.
There were many irregular things about Feng Bujue. They were not intense enough to be categorized as a sickness, but they were definitely unfathomable by normal standards. For example, his reading addiction…
His desire for reading was something hard to be understood by normal minds. For example, he could not stop himself from reading the words on the packaging of his shampoo; with the manuals for electronic devices, he would read them from beginning to end, without missing a word; the worst was… he would not even give up reading the labels on new clothes.
As long as something or someone had a relationship with him, Feng Bujue would instinctively gather all the information on it. Furthermore, he was not just reading for fun—he had a surprisingly good reading ability and memory. Even though his memory could not be called photographic, where he could recite everything he read without error, as long as it was something that he had read, years might have passed since then, and he would be able to remember at least sixty percent of it.
"Hmm… This is not so much different from other gaming disclaimers." Feng Bujue took two minutes to finish the disclaimer that was several thousand words long. "The only thing different about it is the few clauses on the sixth paragraph…"
He titled his head slightly downward and used his left hand to clutch the elbow of his right hand, and the pointing and middle finger of his right hand tapped his face as they slid from his forehead down the bridge of his nose before ending on the tip. This was a habit of his when he was thinking. "In others… if the damage or injury is caused by the player's illness, their company will not bear the responsibility for it."
Feng Bujue felt he could not overrule this clause as a gimmick created by Dream Inc. He had gone through the game design on the official website before. The biggest selling point of the game was a concept called 'Terror Points'.
Based on functions in the photon computer and gaming hub, the player's heart rate, blood pressure, and pulse would be monitored in real time in real life to extrapolate the standard of fear. If the Terror Points experienced by the player in game went over the threshold, the connection would be forcibly cut, and the player would be kicked out of the system. If the player suffered a great anomaly like the ceasing of their heart beat or difficulty breathing, the gaming hub would contact medical help immediately. In other words, the gaming server was connected to the hospital and police servers to minimize the chance of death from gaming.
Feng Bujue clicked agree, and the system audio began. "This is your first time logging into the game. Please select your in-game name."
A textbox appeared on screen, and next to it were the many limiting clauses—the name had to have more than four characters, and sensitive or curse words were not allowed. In the age of photon computers, the power of AIs and computers had reached an incomprehensible level. The system only needed a database of words or even general guidelines, and it would be able to operate on its own to limit all sorts of prohibited behavior. Tricks like FUC*K or A55I-I0LE would not be able to bypass the fourth-generation photon computer. Around a decade ago, there had been people who feared that this kind of intelligent AI would develop sentience and turn against humanity, but so far, there had been no cases to support this worry.
In conclusion, the photon computer was very powerful, but exactly how powerful would only be seen later.
"Scanning completed. IGN Feng Bujue is usable. Please confirm."
Feng Bujue's real name was rather uncommon, so it likely would have been useable, but he used 'Feng' to replace 'Feng' (The original Feng is 'seal', and the IGN Feng is 'crazy'; they're homophones in Chinese.). He did not want to use his real name; plus, he was fond of self-deprecating humor.
After clicking confirm, the system audio said, "Next, the beginner's tutorial will initiate. The tutorial can only be completed once, and the scenario is confirmed. You will gain the base reward after completing the tutorial.
"Please take note. The result of the tutorial will not affect your character's beginning ability, but the reward will be different. If you are forced to log off from the system due to high Terror Points or you leave the gaming hub due to personal reasons, you will not be able to continue the tutorial from where you left off, and the system will design a new tutorial for you."
Feng Bujue listened to the hint and reached out to confirm his choice again. Just as his finger touched the icon on the screen, the lights in the elevator suddenly went out.
The next second, a different sound began—it was completely different from the mechanized system audio from before. This time, it sounded like an old witch. "Welcome to Thriller Paradise…"
The words had just finished when the elevator suddenly shook. Then, the black box where he could not even see his own fingers started to slowly sink downward.


This is a game beyond dimension–the pursuit of truth. 
The unknown seal, the gambit between gods and demons… 
The defiance against data, the retribution of human… 
In a virtual world connected with reality, consciousness dictates us, consciousness chooses us, and consciousness dictates our consciousness. 
Now, throw away you fear. 
Throw away your selfish interest, question, and disbelief… Free your thought. 
Welcome to Thriller Paradise. 
Feng Bujue lost his ability to fear because of an unknown psychological disorder. Through a virtual reality game designed for players to experience fright and despair, he began his search for his lost fear. Could he finally regain his ability to fear? Could he outwit the scenarios presented to him? Could he finally uncover the truth hidden inside Thriller Paradise?  


"Elena" Lorenzo called softly. 

He shook me a little, and he ran his fingers through my hair like a comb. And he wiped some eye buggers from the corner of my eye. 

"mmmm" I answered 

"I need your assignments please, Stella And Jake are waiting for me" he said 

Stella was the assistant to the class rep, and I suspected Jake just volunteered to help collect the assignments. The three of them went to most of our colleagues close or around where they lived. 

"It's on my study table" I answered sounding tired 

Lorenzo turned to my study table, "Are those your assignments?" he asked 

The table was messy and I was too tired to sort my assignment from my study notes. Lorenzo let go of my shoulders and he crossed over to my study table. I returned to my cozy bed, and I sat up in it. 
I watch Lorenzo sort my assignments, and place them in a folder. 
After he was done sorting them out, he began to rearrange my table. 

"No stop, I can do that myself. Yo don't have to clean up after my mess anyways." I objected 

"Well Jake just text me that it would take about 30 minutes to get here, because they aren't done yet. So I need to find something to do with my hands" he explained 

I slapped my forehead and my shook my head at the same time. 

"Really" 

"What? did I say something wrong. Your brothers aren't home anyways, or I would have been with Diego by now" he added 

My brothers weren't home, where did they go too sk early
 
"Did you see my mother?" I asked 

"Yes, she was the one who let me in. She said she was on her way to the food market." Lorenzo answered 

Why so early? I asked myself.

I glanced at the wall clock and it said it was 15minutes past 9am. Wow, I over slept. Thank goodness todays classes were cancelled.

"So what's breakfast?" Lorenzo asked 

"I don't know, let's go make some egg toast and coffee" I said and Lorenzo agreed.

I got out of my bed and put on my slippers. I and Lorenzo walked side by side to the kitchen. He brought out the toaster and a loaf of bread, while I boiled some water for the coffee. 

Few minutes later, breakfast was ready and we sat down to eat. 

"Kevin and Ava would come pick you up this evening for the prom. I need to be at school as early as 6pm, along with the test of the student body executives. We need to ensure that everything is set for prom." Lorenzo informed me, and he took a sip from his coffee. 

"Alright, I'll see you there then" I said. 

Lorenzo's phone beeped. He glanced at it, the he stood up from his seat to look out the window. 

"They are here" he informed. "Stella and Jake" 

"Don't forget their toast and drinks." I added 
I assumed both Stella and Jake got up so early to get the assignments, and they probably had nothing to eat yet. I and Lorenzo quickly made some toasts for them before we sat down to eat. I added two canned drinks, just to wash the toast down. 

"Thanks" Lorenzo said, and he hugged me before he left. 

"Hey guys, I got breakfast for you two" I heard Lorenzo say from outside. 
I drew the curtains open to get a better view of their means of transportation. 
Stella and Jake were in a vehicle, and Lorenzo joined them at the back seat. Stella was behind the wheel. 

I returned to my breakfast immediately Lorenzo and the rest left. 
I really didn't have to do anything that day  anyways, asides getting ready for prom.

I didn't see Rodrigo and Diego for the while day, until I was  dressed an ready for the ball. They came in when Kevin and Ava arrived. 
Ava looked gorgeous in her dress, and Kevin looked sharp in his suit. 

"Wow guys, you both look stunning" I said with a smile on my face.

"Thanks.You look better Elena" Ava said nicely 

"Thank you" I responded 

"Hey Elena, you three should come together for a group photo." Rodrigo said. He brought out his phone and took pictures of us. He also took pictures of us individually.

We arrived at the ball on time. Everyone looked stunning. They were lights and the music was nice. Some students were dancing, some were taking photographs at the corner of the room, and some were seated admiring the beauty of the room. I stretched my head above the crowd. I was looking for Lorenzo, I desperately wanted to see him. 

"I'll leave you both alone, I need to find Lorenzo" I said to Kevin and Ava. 

"Alright, but I would suggest you check the board room first." Kevin said. 

I left Ava and Kevin by themselves. I had managed to reach the drink section, where a punch bowl and some other drinks were kept. I grabbed a punch drink which was already served, and I continued to search for Lorenzo. I spotted Ronald, the student secretary and the welfare executive- Naomi, at a distance. 

I walked up to the both of them, "Excuse me" I said as soon as I approached them.

"Hi" they both said with a smile.

"Sorry to bother you both, but I'm looking for Lorenzo. Have you seen him around?" I asked politely 

"He stepped out before we did, he said he had something urgent to attend to. I thought you were the one who called  him." Ronald said 

"No it was Kevin who phoned him, I think they are both looking for you" Naomi added 

"Seriously, did he mention where he was heading exactly?" I asked 

"He mentioned the school car park, I'm not sure though" Ronald answered 

"Thank you" I said and I left their presence. 

I decided to to head to the school car park to go meet Kevin and Lorenzo. I was almost outside, when Ava stopped me. 

"Elean!" she called and she grabbed my arm. 

"Hey Ava" I said

"Kevin and Lorenzo are looking for you" she informed 

"Yes I'm.aware, they are at the car garage right?" I added 

"No, they both are at the chemistry laboratory." she answered "They both told me to come along with you, once I find you." 

"Alright, let's go then" I said. 

I hope everything was alright. I wondered why there were both looking for me. And the way Ava spoke to me worried me
 She sounded like it was urgent. 
I and Ava soon arrive at the laboratory. Lorenzo and Kevin were discussing when we both walked in. 

"Is everything alright?" I asked 

"Yes just grab a stool okay" Kevin said 

"Elena, promise me that what I'm about to tell you won't cause an emotional breakdown." Kevin said. I looked at him worried, but he looked serious. Was the information that heavy.

"What's it about?" I asked worriedly 

"It's Arthur" Kevin answered 

"What about him?" I asked. 
Did something happen to him? i hadn't spent an hour here, and bad news just showed up without an invite. 

"What did tell you about he and Trina?" Kevin asked 

"I already told you. She dared him to be her date to the prom" I simply answered 

Kevin sighed and he crossed over to me. He held my hands, and said "No Eleana, it wasn't a dare" he said. 

I was bewildered. What was he talking about? 

Just then, Lorenzo handed Kevin's phone to him. Kevin unlocked it and he played an audio out for me. 

"Elena, please listen to the audio carefully." Kevin said and he resumed the audio. 

The conversation was between three males. I recognised Arthur's voice. But I had no idea who the other two were. They were talking about me. One of them mentioned Trina as Arthur's actual girlfriend. Not just that, one of them was persuading Arthur to tell me the truth, but Arthur remained adamant. 

I suddenly felt like I was lost in the vast abyss of space and time. The words rang in my head, like they were sent to haunt my soul.

'Keep listening" Kevin said 

The audio continued and I heard Arthur speak about reaching Kevin concerning the truth, and immediately after that, Kevin stopped the audio. 

"I did tell you he was hiding something" Kevin said. 

Ava came to my side and stroke my back to comfort me. I on the other hand, sat down there looking paralyzed. I didn't say a word for sometime and Lorenzo asked if I was okay. 

"How did you get it?" I asked clenching my fist.

"One of the guys sent it to Darwin, and Darwin sent it to me. He also stated that I let you know about it immediately." Kevin answered 

"Have you seen Arthur since you arrived?" I asked 

"I saw him walk into a classroom when I came looking for you" Ava answered softly
 
"Take me there" I said angrily
 
"What?" she said 

"I said, take me there Ava" I said trying control my voice 

Kevin nodded his head at Ava, and I knew he was indirectly telling her to take me there. 

The things I did with Arthur began to play in my head. My brothers can never find out. Not that I did any age 18 rated activities with him, but what hurt me were the lies he said to me. My first kiss went to the wrong guy, a guy I found to be the right guy. 

Ava rose from her seat and she took me straight to the classroom she spotted Artjur walk in earlier. Kevin and Lorenzo were right behind us. I and Ava approached the classroom and the door was closed. I barged in angrily, without knocking.

I spotted Trina and Arthur making out at the back of the classroom. They didn't notice someone had walked in, they were both curled up around each other. 

Arthur you're a disappointment, I wanted to say. All those times you told me you loved me, all was a lie. I even kissed the same lips that diva is kissing right now. 
Tears ran down my cheeks and I immediately turned around and left. 

Lorenzo and Kevin ran after me, while Ava went to grab my pause. I had left it at the chemistry laboratory. 

"Elena" Kevin called

"Let me be okay" I said "How could I have been so foolish" I added 

"Elena, stop please" Kevin begged "Everyone makes mistakes, you don't have to beat yourself up about it." 

"Leave alone Kevin" I stopped and turned around. 

"So where are you going to now?" Lorenzo asked. He sounded like he wasn't interested with what was going on.

"Home" I answered s

"Not in this rain storm, hold up, at least let's call Diego or Darwin to come pick you up. it's a thunderstorm out there" Lorenzo said. 

By the time he had finished speaking, I was already outside, under the rain. 
"I would rather be out here than in there with that liar, and jerk" I yelled 

Lorenzo and Kevin ran after me under the rain. 

"Elena I said stop" Lorenzo yelled. 
It sounded more like a tone of command, and I suddenly came to a halt. I turned around, and he was already by my side. 
I cried so hard the rain covered my tears, but my eyes clearly told anyone who looked at them that i had been crying. 

"What do you want" I yelled. Lorenzo hugged me, tight. 

"Please Elena, I understand you're hurt, but it would hurt me more if you catch a cold because of the rain. Come in let's talk." he said softly. 

"I want to go home Lorenzo please: I said  and I pushed him away. 

"I'm cool with that, but you can't walk alone under this rain. Let's wait for your brother or Darwin, since they are both near by. It's not safe out here Elena." Lorenzo said softly
 
"I don't care" I said in a quavering voice. 

The thunder claps were starting to get louder, and everywhere was slowly becoming windy. 
I took note of a bright light approaching our direction, and it stopped. Diego stepped out and yelled. 

"Elena, what are you doing out there? It's not safe" he yelled 

"Leave me alone" I yelled back at him. 

"Elena, stop this childish act. What's  wrong, you can tell me on our way home. Kevin did tell me you wanted to come home right, now I'm here to take you home. Get inside the car now!" Diego yelled 

"No!" I said, and i turned in the opposite direction and began to walk away. 

"Elena" Diego and Lorenzo called after me, but I  ignored them. 

"Don't follow me" I yelled and a loud and scary thunder claps followed.

"Elena, please get back inside, or if you want to leave so badly, get into the car with me." Diego said 

"Elena, listen to Diego please. The storm is getting worse" Kevin yelled 

I ignored all three of them, and the loud scary thunder claps as well and I kept walking.

I heard footsteps heading my direction, I turned around and I found Lorenzo running towards me. 

I wanted to tell at him to go away, but there was this millisecond flash, and I  suddenly felt a strong charge and heat around my body. I dropped to the ground immediately, and everywhere became blurry, my body felt numb and my named echoed around me. But before my brain could understand what had just happened, I was already unconscious.

WORD COUNT: more than 50,0000 words

Xinyi's eyes widened in shock when she heard the audio file. This...this...how did she have this recorded? It was the audio from the day when they spiked Xie Ming's drink to ruin her reputation in front of Liwei by calling another guy.  
However, before they could execute their plan, Xie Ming woke up and started struggling by grabbing their hair and tried to choke her and her mother. However, in the struggle, she was pushed and she fell into the deep side of the pool.  
Not only was she drugged, but she didn't know how to swim at all as well. She hurt her head when she fell in the swimming pool, causing her to stay unconscious for three months. However, there wasn't anyone that day other than them, how did she record their words?
Xie Rong was shocked upon listening to the conversation of Xinyi and Rouxi. Until now, he was in the dark about the death of Xie Ming's mother. He thought that she got into the accident and felt that it was the perfect timing to bring Xinyi and Rouxi to the Xie Mansion.  
Only after her death, he managed to give Xinyi the name of a father. He knows about Xie Ming's incident since Xinyi was panicking at that time and he had to help to deal with the hospital matters to cover this incident.  
He glanced at Xinyi with a bewildered, shocked gaze, " Xinyi, what is this? You knew what your mother did to Li Nian and you didn't tell me anything?" He asked disappointedly.  
Xinyi pursed her lips and looked up at him with terrified expressions. She tried to calm her trembling hands but it was too difficult for her to stop them from trembling.
" I didn't. Dad, it was fake, it's not true. Xie Ming is making up things, it's just audio. It's not reliable." she argued while taking the stance to deny all the claims.  
Yeah, only If I don't agree, everything will be fine. This was only an audio, that too an old one.
However, there was a video file attached as well with the post. She took a deep breath before clicking on the video with a heavy heart.  
" Click"
In the video, Xinyi and Rouxi were sitting across from each other in the hospital cafeteria. Xinyi's face was facing the camera while Rouxi had her back to it. Xinyi's heart thumped seeing the setting, it was the video of when she visited Xie Ming's hospital to ask her to help their business and she kicked them from the office.  
After that, they went to the hospital cafeteria rather than going back. However, now she was regretting her decision to go to the cafeteria after that.  
[Mom, this Xie Ming is just ridiculous. How dare she act cocky and not help us? Argh, she should have just died back then. How can she survive even after being in the coma for three months? We should have given her poison instead of a drug. Hmph]
Rouxi nodded and grumbled, [ That bitch is too lucky. She not only survived after being pushed into the water but was also rescued on time before that psychotic kidnapper could kill her. She is just too lucky.] she humphed in frustration.  
[Mom, lower down your voice. What if someone hears us?]
[ Ah, don't worry. No one is listening to us, can't you see how noisy and lively this place is? Everyone is minding their own business.]  
Xinyi nodded agreeing to her that everyone is too busy to focus on their words.  
[ I am glad that the psychotic monster was mentally unstable and had a criminal background, otherwise, Liwei would have killed us a long time ago. I was scared to my wits when he found Xie Ming on time and took the man in his custody. What if he had spilled the beans and revealed that it was us who ordered him to do whatever he wants to do with Xie Ming and kill her afterward?] RouXi rubbed her arms, thinking about this possibility of what would have happened if they have been revealed?
[Mom, relax. No one will no know about that incident. Even Xie Ming didn't talk about that incident to anyone, it has been covered long ago. Don't talk about it now.]
**
Xinyi's mouth was parted in shock and was trying to register what just happened. Xie Ming has uploaded this video and the other audio on the internet, for everyone to see? And not only that, she has updated Xinyi in her post as well, making everyone remember who is the real culprit.  
" Xin..Xinyi, WHAT DID YOU DO? WHY DO YOU HAVE TO TALK ABOUT IN SUCH A PUBLIC SPACE?" Xie Rong roared at her, making Xinyi almost jump from her chair.  
" Dad..I...it's not me. I swear." she sobbed but she knew this time she was done for.  
" You're still going to deny that? Xinyi, we're doomed. We're done for now." He plopped on the chair and held his head in devastation.  
-
Xie Ming was sitting on the white chair in the garden and had her laptop and a cup of coffee placed on the small-round table in front of her. She looked up at the sky and closed her eyes to enjoy the pleasant breeze and not-so-strong sunlight.  
The weather was not cold anymore and the flowers were blooming in the garden since it was spring.  
She scrolled down to see the comments on her post which is being shared crazily and the number of comments was insane. The reactions of people made her lips curl in a satisfied smirk.  
[Holy Sh*t!! What is this? Some crime-thriller drama? Why is there so much drug, death, planning, and plotting? It's scary.]
[ You know what, I am not even surprised. I don't know why did people even believe the words of that bit*h when she didn't even put any evidence and just tried to gain sympathy with her fake tears. Xie Ming deserves all the love, she has experienced so many hardships yet she keeps smiling all the time.]
[ So she not only falsely blamed her for sexual harassment, she and her mother even tried to kill her multiple times? Damn!! That's not even bullying, that's a straight crime. She should be put behind the bars.]
[Gu Enterprises needs to go under. I am gonna boycott all the products of Gu enterprises and will encourage my friends to do so. They are not human but monsters.]
[I feel so guilty. When I saw Xinyi's post, I supported her and thought Xie Ming was pretending to be nice earlier. But seeing how she had to post all this evidence to prove her innocence, I feel so bad for her. We don't deserve her.]
[Where is that bitchy sister? Didn't she tag Xie Ming in her post earlier, where is she?]
[ I just checked Xinyi's account, she not only deleted the post but also deactivated her account.  Xie Ming did the right thing, people like Xinyi need to be taught a lesson.]
….
Xie Ming sipped on her coffee and smiled reading all the comments supporting her, and hating on Xinyi. She is not a person to take revenge on someone in this petty way, but with petty people like Xinyi and Rouxi, it's necessary to use the methods that suit one's level.
Moreover, it's not like she was framing anyone falsely. She didn't even say anything, she just presented the evidence to all the people to see what they have said themselves.  
"Xinyi, Didn't I give you time to redeem for your sins? But you're the one who chose this hard way, now deal with it."

He stood beside her bed and stared at her face in wonder if it’s real. A smile appeared on his lips seeing her fluttering eyelashes as she was waking up. However, her reaction was different than what he had expected.


“ Pak”


He stared at her in shock as he covering his face with his palm. Did she just slap him?

Zhao Ming's mouth was open in pure terror when she realized what she just did. She slapped the Emperor. The cruel-infamous Emperor of Ji Dynasty?

‘ Am I going to die again? I just came to this world, do I have to die again?’ 

….

She was the Empress of the Ji Dynasty, but in name only. Never been treated or respected as the Empress, and witnessing the worst of the palace, the life gave her another chance to shine as who she is. 
One day when she opened her eyes, she found her in unfamiliar surroundings. The world was full of people using strange items and in a world that was a world apart from hers.  
Will the Empress of Ji Dynasty be able to survive in this competitive world?


**

She was the wife of the richest businessman in the country with the reputation of nothing but trash. She was labeled as a rebellious brat, shameless lazy woman. When she opened her eyes one day, she found herself in some strange world.


Holy Sh *t! 


She became the Empress of the Ji Dynasty. Can the rebellious, shameless lazy woman adjust to the cruel, strict palace world? Will she change or change the world instead? 


 Can the Emperor get used to her being proactive in every single thing? Even in bed? The Emperor dotes on his wife to the point that she feels tired, how can a man be this cute? It’s illegal for men to be this cute.

…

She pushed him on the bed and sat on his body while looking at him with her tempting eyes.

“ Zhao Ming, what..what are you doing?” 

“ Shh...Your Majesty, you just need to relax. I will do all the work.” She leaned in and sealed his lips with his moist lips making him crazy for her even more.

Thank you

"Hey, Jiang…"
"Ning Xiao Xi! You actually signed with Glory World!!! Why didn’t you discuss it with me! Did you see the email that I sent you or not?!" Jiang Muye roared down the line.
"Eh, aren’t you busy? I didn’t want to disturb you. Anyway, what does it have to do with the email you sent me?" Jiang Muye's voice was really too loud. Ning Xi smiled at Lu Tingxiao awkwardly, and then took the phone with her upstairs.
Behind her, Lu Jingli touched his chin, and gave his brother a meaningful look. "Brother, it seems that someone wants to get in your way! Heh, that poor thing, to actually like the same woman as you! Fortunately, Xiao Xi Xi is not my type, tsk tsk…"
Rivals in love were too scary!
On the phone, Jiang Muye was about to die from all his anger. "Until now you still haven't seen the email?"
"I’m sorry, I forgot! Is it very important? I thought it was another spoof video or something…"
Jiang Muye took a deep breath, and said very slowly, "You, now, at once, immediately, this very second, open your inbox and look at what I sent you. Don't hang up, open it right now!"
"Ok, ok, ok! I’ll take a look at it now!"
Ning Xi turned on her computer resignedly, and found the email which Jiang Muye had sent to her. She then downloaded the attachment in the email.
It contained an image and an audio file.
She opened the image first. It was a screencap of a WeChat chat.
[Aiya, my good grandson is too cute, aiya, my son is too handsome! Tingxiao, who picked the clothes for you and Little Treasure? Was it the girl you like?]
[Yes.]
[I knew it, you would never choose this style! Look at how bright the color is, it looks so good! It’s nothing like the dull clothes you wear all the time, and Little Treasure has to suffer the same dull style too! As expected, this house does need a woman!]
[She also took these photos?]
[Yes.]
[Not bad.]
[Damn, my future sister-in-law is unbelievable! She can actually make you wear this color, and you even let her take photos! I gave you some clothes in a similar color before, and you looked at me so scornfully. You even belittled my taste!]
…
Looking at the chat, she saw that it was Lu Tingxiao, the two Lu family elders, and Lu Jingli.
"Are you looking at it?" Jiang Muye urged her.
"Yes." Ning Xi nodded, a complicated expression on her face, and then clicked open the audio.
After a few rustling sounds, Jiang Muye’s voice came out…
"Uncle — what exactly are your intentions towards Ning Xi?"
Then there was the sound of Lu Tingxiao’s voice: "Towards Ning Xi…"
"Yes! Don't you think your attitude towards her is too strange and too intimate?" Jiang Muye asked.
Lu Tingxiao’s tone was both languid and dangerous. "I thought I was already obvious enough, but since you still don't understand…"
Listening up to this point, Ning Xi’s heart was suddenly in her throat, as if she could feel Jiang Muye’s mood while he waited for Lu Tingxiao’s reply.
Lu Tingxiao… what would he say?
She waited for three seconds, which felt like three centuries. Then Lu Tingxiao’s voice finally sounded again.
He said: "Understand?"
Ning Xi was confused. What situation? Understand what?
Just as Ning Xi thought she had missed something, and was about to replay the video, Jiang Muye’s cold voice came through the phone. "You don’t need to listen to it again. You didn't hear wrong, he really did only say that one word. But before he said it, he kissed you in front of me."


After five years, Ning Xi returned to the place that had pushed her away — home. With a sister who turned her parents against her and made her childhood sweetheart betray her, the odds seemed grey.
However, five years abroad had changed her, and she came home to fulfil her childhood dream of becoming an actress. Despite her evil sister still out to get her, tables will be turned. 
One day, after falling into one of her sister's schemes, she saves an adorable kid and found herself staying at his house to help him come out of his shell. Slowly, his father Lu Tingxiao began falling for her. This was before they realised how their lives had been intertwined all this while without their knowledge.

 I lay on my back in my hospital bed looking at the fluoresce lights on the hospital ceiling. I could tell my time was almost up. I am only expected to live to twenty years old and today is my birthday, June 6. You know I thought that I would be more scared when realizing that I realistically only had a couple more months to live or might even die today, but honestly I'm alright. I have no one that I am sad leaving behind and am sure as heck that I don't want to continue living like this....in pain and watch my body slowly wither away. I wasn't always like this, but after I turned 13 I was diagnosed with severe lung cancer. At first, my parents du everything they could to get me help and all my friends were extremely supportive of me and my condition. But slowly one by one all my friends abandoned me, I can't tell if they just thought I was a lost cause or if they felt like I wasn't worth all the trouble and the pampering. Though I depressed about it I still had my parents, but eventually they too stopped trying as hard once they found out they couldn't change anything. That was fine....they still took care of me and loved me and I couldn't bare watching them trying to find the financial resources to try and get me help. But that once again changed when my parents gave birth to my little sister. At first, they would come all the time to show me and let me play with my little sister, but later on when my condition got worse they almost stopped visiting me entirely. Their excuses were that my little sister shouldn't be exposed to death so early and that she may suffer trauma if she sees my condition. Then, they just stopped coming entirely, no more visits.....not even a call. I could try and understand their reasoning, but it still hurt and frustrated me. I can't remember how many times I cried myself to sleep over it. They didn't even come on my birthday's and holidays. And I eventually grew numb to that too. The only thing that could distract me from my despair were the audio books that the doctors let me listen too. Eventually I got so weak that I couldn't even lift a book properly so those were my only options. The audio books allowed me to close my eyes, forget about my pain, and just imagine myself as one of the people in the book. My favorites were adventure and mythology books, so my favorite series was Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan. I love how adventurous and charismatic the characters are, but my favorite character of them all was Poseidon. I've always loved the beaches and the oceans but haven't gotten that chance to be on one since I was 13, there was never any time for that, only check-ups and tests. 

I press the call button on my bed with the little remaining strength I have and ask the nurse to put on Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief. Then I close my eyes and drown in the enchanting voice of the audiobook reader..."Look, I didn't want I be a half-blood. If you're reading this because you think you might be one, my advice is: close this book right now. Believe what lie your mom or dad told you about your birth, and try to lead a normal life. Being a half-blood is dangerous. It's scary. Most of the time you get killed in painful, nasty ways............"
Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

Dylan Hughes was a boy who lived almost all his life in a hospital. His life expectancy was only twenty years, so no one wanted to get too close to him only to watch him waste away. His only company were the nurses, doctors, and books he read while in his hospital room. One day he died in his sleep only to wake up in the body of his favorite god in his favorite book series. Watch what he does with his new lease on life!

(I’ll update once or twice a week)

Jason sat down on the roof and took out a cigarette and carefully watched the old man.
The Old man seems to not care out others and just sat inside the coffee shop and drank one coffee after the other.
'Does he wants to get high on caffeine or what?'
He thought.
He is getting bored of seeing the man do the same thing repeatedly for an hour.
Suddenly he thinks of something, he had noticed a CCTV camera inside the coffee shop, he took out his phone and called Derry.
"Yes, brother?"
Derry picked up the call and answered.
"Yes, have you been keeping an eye on the old man?"
"Yes, I am currently looking through the CCTV camera that is inside the shop"
"Good, does it have a mic to record sound?"
"Yes, it does"
"Even better, record everything about him, I cannot stay in his sight for a long time or I will get caught"
Jason said
"I understand"
Derry said and ended the call.
Jason now has to wait more and get alerts from Derry if something happens.
____________________
Inside the bar, Charles is still sitting on the table, the owner didn't say anything to him because he keeps buying coffee after his previous one finished.
"This coffee is very good, I should ask the owner what kind of coffee beans he uses"
Charles said and took another sip.
He is on the lookout for the person he is searching for, he knows that he is being watched but by whom and from where, he has no idea, now he can only piss off his stalker by just doing the same thing over and over again.
He wants to fish out the person who is watching him but to his surprise, no one showed up, even he started to doubt if someone is following him or not, he had caught Jason but when Jason left and never came back, Charles lost his final string.
He couldn't tell what to do next, so he decided to waste his time and his stalkers as well.
What he doesn't know is that he is being watched 24/7 by the cameras everywhere, and he doesn't know about it.
As he continues drinking his coffee, his phone rang, he paused and took out his phone, seeing the number being displayed on his phone he quickly picked it up.
Jason who is still watching Charles saw his pick up his phone, Jason also got an alert from Derry as well.
He called Derry once again.
"Derry, can you live feed the audio from the coffee shop to my phone?"
"I can do that, give me a moment"
Derry said and began to work again on his computer to transfer the live audio to Jason's phone.
Jason didn't have to wait long before he could hear the live audio that is being transferred from the coffee shop to his phone.
[ "Yes my lady?"
"..."
"I still don't have anything, this character is like a phantom, not even a single soul knows about this existence, it's like a myth but everyone still believes it"
"..."
"Yes, I will be here for a few days and try to find out about this man, then come back, I think it won't be easy"
"..."]
The call ended and Charles put his phone, he looked around once more and got up from his seat, paid the bill and got out of the shop.
Jason simply sat on the roof and watched Charles walk away.
'He said My lady, it means there is a woman above him who is in control, who could it be'
Jason thought and followed Charles where ever he went but Jason always kept his distance so that he doesn't get noticed.
While Charles doesn't notice anyone following he could tell that he is being watched continuously, he couldn't tell from where. 
His senses could just tell that. 
He didn't know what to do, he actually felt helpless for the first time in his life.
'To be able to watch me all the time without getting noticed, it's scary, I have to find a way to track down who is watching me'
Charles thought and walked away.
Freyton was just like any other city to him, people doing their usual work and going around the city doing their stuff, but more violent than others.
___________________
During his stay in Freyton, he could tell he was being watched, even in the hotel, he was staying, except his room.
But anywhere outside, he felt being watched. He tried to find this person but no matter what he did, he couldn't find his stalker.
He even used his powers to control the masses around him to find the one but was still useless.
When Jason saw how easily this old man he is following around to control masses with a though, he sighed and praised himself from not confronting him head-on.
He realized that this old man is not only not scared or wary of Lone Wolf, but he is a lot stronger than this Lone Wolf, that is why he is not afraid of it.
Charles is also having a really hard time, he cannot find any clue or evidence regarding this Lone Wolf he is looking for.
It was as if he is searching for someone that doesn't even exist, a phantom just like how he described to Anuka.
But one day, he noticed something that might help him a lot and get an idea who might be watching him.

A Gangster with a twisted mindset finds out that the world he lives in is not what he expected it to be.
Supernatural beings, magic, he gets involved with all these things. How will he thrive in this world which has become completely foreign to him, maybe the answer is to turn into something that is truly foreign to the world itself.
