I heard that I’m super fierce - Chapter 53

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

The bare metal wire burst into sparks at the moment it hit the water. Lin You let go right away. She took a step back and didn’t let the liquid splash on the toe of her shoe.

She didn’t know how many impurities were floating in the sewage. It was the best conductor for now.

The fingers soaked in the water suddenly became numb. Sadako’s entire body was electrified, and she twitched fiercely.

Her long, straight hair began to gradually blow up, and she made short intermittent snorts.

“Ah……”

Sadako was obviously unable to bear such a fierce current. But no matter how much strength she used, she still had the extra energy to struggle desperately with her mind.

“Ah…uh…”

Finally, she lifted her fingers that were constantly bending back and forth by electricity.

At the moment she got away, Sadako had also exhausted her strength. Under her body was the water with the electric wires. She didn’t dare to stay here any longer and went straight into the TV.

Before Sadako’s head completely went in, Lin You met an eye that appeared through the messy hair.

Her eyes were bloodshot, staring at her firmly—

This grudge was completely planted.

All these changes happened in just a few seconds.

That is, in the next second, the chandelier above her head went out quickly.

Lin You cursed secretly.

—It was tripped.

Fortunately, this time was stopped, and her vision suddenly became dark. Lin You looked down at the wire. Although the dirty puddle was still there, it must no longer be electrified.

Recalling the look in Sadako’s eyes before leaving, Lin You shrugged helplessly in the quiet room again.

She reminded the other party to reconsider.

There was a scorching smell in the air, and it was unfortunately not just the fake leather being burned. Before the light went out, she saw that Sadako’s skin and flesh didn’t have much effect, maybe her hair was burnt?

They have to hurry up.

Lin You thought.

Sadako may have not given up on finding her to settle the account. Before that, finding the clue she wanted to find became the top priority.

She tore off the cord and left it behind, took out the flashlight in the backpack, and rushed towards the desk in two steps.

On the other side of the corridor, there were still people who didn’t know what happened behind the closed door at the opposite end.

“What happened?”

Jian Mingjia was stunned: “Is this a trip or…?”

“I don’t know…” Lu Zhenjie swallowed, “I didn’t hear anything.”

Although it was only a small hot spring hotel, it used sound-absorbing panels like most hotels. The thin holes can eliminate the sound reverberating in the corridor for several minutes, not to mention that there are still many doors between them.

Jian Mingjia took several deep breaths.

She faintly felt that something might have happened to Lin You.

But when you shout in here, the other party probably can’t hear it.

She had a deep trust in Lin You. She thought that the other party should be able to solve the situation that she encountered—but that didn’t mean that she can leave her alone, she had to do something.

The corridor was originally very quiet. This dead silence could be tolerated when the lights were on, but it seemed gloomy when it was completely dark.

Before they set off, they were prepared with flashlights in their hands, but it was impossible to cover every corner with light. This hotel always made them feel like something will pop up from the side and get in the way.

“I’ll turn on the switch,” she said.

“Are you going?” Lu Zhenjie asked, “Otherwise I can also—”

“I’ll go alone. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket, I’ll just go alone.”

Jian Mingjia affirmed, and she glanced at the door behind them warily and lowered her voice.

“I saw where the switch was when I was cleaning up in the afternoon. Someone has to watch Tomie, even if just for a moment. You wait here. If I don’t come back in three minutes, just go look for her.”

Of course, the “she” she was talking about was Lin You. Lu Zhenjie thought about it and found it reasonable, and nodded in agreement.

Their side was closer to the stairs, and Jian Mingjia shone a flashlight on the steps.

The sound of her going downstairs got farther and farther away. Lu Zhenjie held his flashlight and shone on the dial on his wrist.

The hands were moving every minute and every second.

One minute.

One minute and thirty seconds.

After two and a half minutes, he suddenly heard a voice from behind him.

“I said,” the female voice was muffled by the door, “are you still outside?”

Frightened, Lu Zhenjie glanced back subconsciously. In front of him, there was only a wooden door that was close by, but he seemed to see Tomie’s head which was placed in the center of the table through it.

After taking out the bulb, it was quiet inside, but he did not expect her to speak at this moment.

“I’m here.”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

He said, “Don’t even think about running.”

“What? I thought you were both here.” This didn’t affect her plan. Tomie smiled lightly, “But it doesn’t matter, one person is enough.”

This was Tomie Kawakami, and Lu Zhenjie repeatedly warned himself not to believe anything she said.

But despite this, as if his mouth no longer belonged to him, he asked in a wicked manner: “What is enough?”

“Nothing. Don’t worry, I won’t run away like you think.”

Tomie paused.

“However, I happen to be in a good mood. I can tell you the information you especially want to know right now. I can only tell you.”

Her voice was like honey mixed with arsenic, patiently guiding him.

“You really don’t want to listen?”

*

Nothing, nothing—

After emptying one drawer after another, Lin You still couldn’t find what she was looking for. Lin You sighed and prepared to search the next one.

Her fingertips had just touched the handle, and there was a sudden flash in front of her eyes.

…?

Lin You blinked and looked up.

The chandelier in the center of the ceiling flickered a few times, and the light bulbs dotted on it turned on one after another, lighting up the whole room again.

It seemed that someone had flipped the switch.

Immediately turning off the flashlight in time to save power, Lin You opened the last drawer, and her eyes lit up because of the contents.

She also understood the thinking that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. She didn’t think too much at the beginning, she only picked up the small book and quickly turned a few pages.

Fortunately, it met her expectations.

Tsuchiya was obviously not a tidy person.

Most of the previous books kept a few accounts and occasionally recorded thoughts on the operation of the hotel, and even the date was sometimes missing.

This was a very different book, which was similar to a diary, and began to change its style in the middle.

A young girl came to the hotel today.

She said that her name was Tomie, Kawakami Tomie. Abandoned by her boyfriend, she ended up here. I hope I can take her in.

Seeing her, I realized for the first time that there are such beautiful girls in the world. I agreed to her request without hesitation and let her stay in the hotel as my niece.

Using this as a dividing line, he began to express his love for Tomie with a lot of pen and ink. But gradually, other things began to be mixed into it.

“Why would I want to kill her,” “It’s not enough to kill her,” and such texts began to take up more and more space.

—Then, it finally turned to action after their visit.

Lin You closed the notebook.

It’s a pity that this still cannot prove whether Tomie had actually “died once before.”

She only knew that she came to the door on her own initiative.

At this moment, Lin You heard someone knocking on the door.

“Youyou, Lin You,” it was Jian Mingjia’s voice, “Are you guys in there?”

……”You guys”?

Lin You did not speak and unscrewed the handle immediately.

It’s not that there is no such a scene in ghost movies—ghosts pretend to be someone they know and trick them into opening the door. But the person standing outside the door was really Jian Mingjia, and the other party was relieved to see her.

“It’s fine.”

She asked: “Where is Lu Zhenjie?”

“Him?” Lin You was taken aback, “He has never been here.”

This time, the dumbfounded one was Jian Mingjia, “…Huh??”

“That’s weird,” she said, “When I went to turn on the switch, I was afraid there would be an accident on the way and make him wait a while. If I didn’t come back, he would search for you.”

“It’s too dark on the road for a delay, and there was no one on the road so I thought… where did he go?”

“I don’t know.”

Lin You put the notebook in her backpack and exited sideways, “I think I should just go over there and have a look—”

The moment she closed the door, she seemed to catch a little white shadow in her peripheral vision.

Her pupils suddenly shrank, and she gave Jian Mingjia a hard tug.

“What—” The latter stumbled from her tug, and before she could ask a question, she also saw the guy. “…?!”

Either the opened door concealed most of it, or it deliberately hid its figure, but the ghost in white was standing there quietly until they found it.

Lin You pulled her other hand to Jian Mingjia and grabbed, but Sadako didn’t care about it at all, and just moved forward gloomily.

For some reason, Lin You saw a little bit of pride in her.

It was like she was showing off that she didn’t come out of the TV this time, and there are no wires around, so what else can be done.

“Run!”

After recovering, Jian Mingjia hurried to pull her, “Go downstairs first!”

Lin You was taken aback and ran to keep up with her.

She turned her head and saw that Sadako didn’t seem to care how far they could run, hanging her shoulders forward, twisting her body to follow behind.

She knew that Sadako had the ability to heal, but she didn’t expect that the other party’s resilience was so strong that she could give a final push after such a short time.

…Ah, even though the long hair that was tousled by the electricity has not recovered.

“This situation…” Jian Mingjia gasped, “with Tomie and Sadako, this situation is too terrible?!”

She had to be led downstairs to talk about it, and there was a tricky guy on the other side upstairs.

Before she finished her words, Lin You suddenly felt that she saw something.

—A little boy with a pale white body wearing only shorts.

Although it just flashed in the corner of her eye, is it possible that the boy is…!

“Okay,” Lin You steadied her breath and said calmly, “I think things can get worse.”

Jian Mingjia: “…For example?!”

“Oh…”

The bubbling sound lingered in their ears, and the two of them stopped together.

Lin You raised her head. A black whirlpool appeared in the middle of the ceiling in front of her.

Taking a closer look, they found that it was not a “vortex” at all, but hair that is long and slender enough to wind up in circles.

“Oh, uh…”

“—For example,” Lin You said, looking at the pale and bloody face of the woman who appeared upside down there, “Kayako and her son are also chasing us.”

This was certainly a bit exciting.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
