A dating guide turned into being surrounded by female ghosts?

Chapter 9 is out?

A few years after Wen Ning's death, Fulimen Department Store went bankrupt due to being haunted, and the owner fled overseas.

The area had a bad reputation, and due to urban planning, it lost its former prosperity, so no one took over and it was left to fall into disrepair.

Look around and up at the sky.

Even the streetlights were only half-lit, making it feel unsafe.

The interior of the mall is even more eerie and sinister.

Through the glass door with its thick chains, you can see the dark, collapsed, and dusty counters inside, and the abandoned mannequins, some missing heads and some missing arms, standing in different places, as if they are eyeing the passersby outside the door from different distances.

It was late at night, and there were very few pedestrians on the street. Even if someone did pass by, they would quickly walk around this area, as if they all felt there was an unsettling atmosphere here.

All these images give the place a strong sense of terror, like a mysterious cave in a bustling city.

Lin Yue took out her phone, which showed that it was exactly 11:50.

The system requires the meeting time to be at midnight, and there are still about ten minutes to go.

He circled the mall entrance a few times, as if he were waiting for someone.

But after waiting for a long time, no one else came.

This caused his expression to become somewhat anxious.

At the end.

The time finally came to midnight.

When all time indices are cleared in that one second.

Lin Yue sighed in disappointment.

"well--"

I've reminded you so many times before, how come you're still late at this crucial moment?

He could only send one message on his phone: "Have you arrived yet?"

"I'll be there soon."

"Almost there" means there's still some time before arrival.

But the mission required midnight to begin.

If this time point is exceeded, the system will most likely not count it as a completed task.

He could only urge them via his mobile phone.

"Please hurry, I'll go in first."

Then he put away his phone and pulled out the light screen that had been floating in front of him.

"Mission: A Heart-Pounding First Date"

······

Silently choose to accept it.

Lin Yue looked seriously into the eerie interior of the mall.

There's nothing we can do.

Since the key person isn't coming.

Wen Ning, then it'll just be the two of us going on a date first.

He first took out a second-hand mobile phone, turned on the recording function, and placed it at the entrance of the mall.

This is used to observe whether electronic devices can see ghosts.

The reason we couldn't reach a conclusion last time was probably because we were too close together.

This time, he wanted to try again from a distance to see if it would still work.

After finishing all that and mentally preparing himself, he stepped forward and weighed the thick iron chain hanging on the door.

Unexpectedly, with just a slight pull, the chain fell to the ground like a slippery, soft snake.

"Splash—"

It made a huge noise.

Lin Yue was stunned. The mall doors weren't locked? Had the owner fled in such a hurry?

He also thought that to get in, one would have to specifically climb through a window or find a small door.

I didn't expect it to be this easy.

Filled with questions, Lin Yue pushed open the glass door and went straight inside.

"squeak--"

The glass door latch made a piercing sound.

The door had just opened.

Before he could even stand still, a strong smell of mold and dust wafted in from under the door, making his lungs itch.

Ignore this discomfort.

Open the door.

Lin Yue took out the large flashlight she had prepared beforehand and turned it on.

Bright lights shone directly out.

The abandoned first floor of the mall suddenly became much brighter.

This also dispelled some of the unease in his heart.

Mustering my courage, I boldly continued walking inside.

The shopping mall had been abandoned for almost ten years, and many things had been moved out. Even the discarded items were left unattended, scattered haphazardly on the ground, and the floor and the items were covered with a thick layer of white dust.

Stepping on it felt like stepping on sand, making a "shush-shush" sound.

But apart from that, there was no sound at all, not even a single insect or mouse.

The silence was abnormal, almost eerie.

This clearly does not conform to basic natural laws.

Logically, places where human activity ceases should naturally become gathering places for various small animals, such as spiders, ants, and cockroaches...

But there wasn't a single moving object to be seen here.

Lin Yue couldn't help but let her thoughts wander, "Hehe, there's probably something here that even those lower animals are afraid of..."

It is said that in an extremely quiet environment, one can even hear the sound of one's own heartbeat and the flow of blood, which is a kind of deepest fear.

He felt that things hadn't gotten to that point.

But in the quiet, he was surprised for the first time that his breathing could be so heavy.

He bent over and moved cautiously, little by little, at the slowest pace, deeper and deeper.

About a minute later.

The eerie silence continued.

The mutation never occurred.

Lin Yue gradually walked to the center of the first floor of the mall, where a transparent glass railing several meters high was overhead.

At that moment, he found something strange on the ground.

It was a large, dark red stain on the floor.

Chad could even see four twisted, elongated protrusions and an irregular sphere on top.

This is clearly the shape of a person.

Lin Yue's expression changed. Based on the pictures he found on that local forum, this location was very likely the spot where Wen Ning fell to her death.

But... why is this mark still there?

Surely it can't be that it can't be cleaned off, right?

Even if it's not clean, you can just replace the floor tiles. Does such a big boss not need the money for two floor tiles?

Or is it that... even if this humanoid trace is removed, it will slowly reappear because Wen Ning's resentment is too strong?

Is that why the forum says this place is haunted?

Lin Yue's expression was calm, but her palms were slightly sweaty.

The more I think about it, the more unreasonable it seems, and the more uneasy I feel.

He gritted his teeth and quickly banished the unfounded suspicion from his mind.

Don't think about these things. It's pointless except for scaring yourself and adding psychological pressure.

I've been here for quite a while now.

Not to mention the surrounding area, there wasn't even the slightest movement from the system.

It's not a big deal if it's just for a short time, but if it goes on for a long time, people will inevitably start to have doubts.

Is Wen Ning not here?

Is the system malfunctioning again?

After all, it can get it wrong whether the target is alive or dead.

So getting the date location wrong isn't that strange.

Just as he was hesitating, wondering whether he should ignore the broken system and turn around and leave,

A crisp, emotionless voice suddenly appeared in his ear.

"bite--"

"The date countdown has officially begun."

"There are 9 minutes and 59 seconds left until the mission is completed."

Lin Yue's tense nerves were startled by the notification sound.

But after hearing what the system message said, his eyes glazed over and his heart raced.

Wait... what does "the start of a date" mean?

Has Wen Ning come out?

Lin Yue's heart rate instantly exceeded 180 beats per minute.
