Behind the plastic sheeting covering the wall was a huge mirror.

Looking through the lifted corner of the plastic, the mirror was covered in dust. What Wen Liangshan saw was his own face reflected in the mirror.

The fatty was close and his expression turned strange the moment he saw the mirror.

He had encountered a similar scene during another mission, and it had left a very deep impression on him.

"Found it." Wang Qi's voice was distinct. He had found a dark red wooden box under a window.

The wooden box wasn't large, about the size of a jewelry box, but it felt very heavy. On closer inspection, delicate hidden patterns could be seen on it.

When illuminated with a flashlight, the hidden patterns seemed to flow like water, which was quite magical.

When opened, it contained eyes.

Seven in total. Wang Qi took one out and examined it carefully.

Although made of glass, the workmanship was so realistic that they were quite startled when they first opened the box.

After looking at them for a while, they even had the illusion that these eyes were alive and were also looking at them.

Gao Yan looked at the eyes in the wooden box and said in a low voice, "Seven eyes in total, and there are seven of us. It seems we are meant to take one each."

As soon as he finished speaking, a heavy object fell to the ground not far behind them. A leg of a wooden table broke, and the debris on top of it rolled all over the floor.

"This place is too strange. Let's get out of here as soon as possible." Wen Liangshan hadn't recovered from the mirror incident and was startled by the broken table. He was a bit unhinged.

"Wait." Shen Mengyun suddenly spoke, then took another glass eyeball from the wooden box. After examining it, she said, "Look, what's the difference between these two eyeballs?"

Both eyeballs were oval, but upon closer inspection, the eyeball in Wang Qi's hand was slightly raised on the left, while the one in Shen Mengyun's hand was slightly raised on the right.

"One left eye, one right eye," Jiang Cheng said.

The fatty was stunned and blurted out, "Why are they divided into left and right eyes?"

After a count, there were 3 left eyes and 4 right eyes in the box.

Now everyone was a little confused. According to their initial thought, they only needed to guess which hand Meng Yumian was clenching the eye in.

Then, they would place the glass eyeball in their hand in front of the hand they bet on.

If they guessed correctly, Meng Yumian would leave and look for the next person. If they guessed wrong, they would obediently leave their eyes behind.

The glass eyeballs were just markers and there was no need to distinguish between left and right.

But now it seemed that this game was not that simple.

"Could it be like this? Do you remember? When Meng Yumian died, she was clutching an eye in her hand." Gao Yan said, "Perhaps the so-called rock-paper-scissors game is just a facade. What we really have to guess is whether the eye left in her hand is a left eye or a right eye."

With the introduction of this conjecture, everyone's eyes changed as they looked at the glass eyeballs in the box.

If that was the case, then from the moment they chose the glass eyeballs, their ending was already doomed.

For example, if Meng Yumian had a left eye in her hand, then only the 3 people who took the left eye would survive. Conversely, it would be the 4 people who took the right eye.

The person who took the wrong eyeball was destined to have his eyes gouged out in an extremely tragic way from the moment Meng Yumian found him.

Of course, it would be best if they could avoid being found by Meng Yumian, but how easy would it be to escape the pursuit of a fierce ghost?

"Mr. Jiang, do you really not remember which eye Meng Yumian lost in the story?" Wang Qi threw the eyeball in his hand back into the box, tilted his head to look at Jiang Cheng, and asked with a playful look.

"I asked, Yuan Xiaoyi said she didn't remember," Jiang Cheng replied.

"In that case, please choose first." Wang Qi held the wooden box and handed it to Jiang Cheng, still with that annoying look.

Without even looking, Jiang Cheng randomly took one.

Before the fatty could see whether Jiang Cheng took the left or right eye, he saw Wang Qi and Gao Yan quickly reach out and each take a glass eyeball from the box.

By the time he reacted, all that was left in the box were right eyes.

There was nothing to choose now. The remaining people each took a right eye. Wen Liangshan stared at the right eyeball in his hand, as if he was about to cry the next second.

Huai Yi was annoyed by his appearance and was about to teach him a lesson, but when he saw Jiang Cheng shaking his head slightly, he gave up.

Now that the eyeballs were divided, the next thing was to choose a hiding place. Everyone decided to hide separately, so as to maximize the distraction of the ghost and delay the time.

Apart from the playground itself, there were several other places to hide nearby: the bathroom in the northwest corner, the small woods to the south, the unfinished building, the viewing platform, the clock tower, and the equipment room, which probably no one would choose.

"I'll go to the clock tower, everyone, feel free." Wang Qi waved his hand and turned to leave.

"On the way here, I found a mud pit, I can hide there." After Gao Yan finished speaking, he also left. It seemed that he himself was well aware that he was not welcome here.

After the two of them left, Shen Mengyun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Cheng again, "Mr. Jiang..."

Unexpectedly, before she could finish speaking, she saw Jiang Cheng pick up the eyeball in his hand and say very calmly, "If you want, we can switch."

This time it was Shen Mengyun's turn to be stunned. After a moment, she shook her head, "I believe in you, Mr. Jiang, but that's not what I wanted to say. What I wanted to say is that I'm going to the small woods."

"That's where the incident happened. I want to try and see if I can find the eye that Meng Yumian lost first and end this urban legend."

"The possibility is very small, the risk is very high," Jiang Cheng objectively evaluated. "Be careful."

"Yeah, you...you too." Shen Mengyun stopped suddenly when she reached the door and turned her head to say, "Don't trust Gao Yan, he's unreliable. Also, there's something wrong with that Wang Qi, there's something strange about him."

After Shen Mengyun left, there were only Jiang Cheng and his three companions left, plus Wen Liangshan.

Jiang Cheng raised his chin, "Don't be polite, you guys choose first."

In fact, he wanted to add that it was all the same anyway, and they would be found no matter where they hid, but after thinking about it, he didn't say it.

The fatty chose the viewing platform, Huai Yi chose the unfinished building, and now only the bathroom in the northwest corner and the equipment room under their feet were left.

Of course, there was also the empty playground.

This equipment room looked strange, so it was naturally ruled out. It could be seen that Wen Liangshan wanted to choose the bathroom. Although it wasn't ideal either, it was better than running wildly in the rain and being chased by a ghost in the empty playground.

But if he chose it, then it would be Jiang Cheng who would have to run wildly in the rain.

In other words, even if he chose it, would Jiang Cheng and his two brothers agree?

"I'll leave the bathroom to you." Jiang Cheng put away the eyeball in his hand and said, "I owe you a favor, consider it repaid."
