Lu Miao glanced at her and asked, “What help do you need?”
The young girl nodded, “I want you to help me find someone.”
Lu Miao straightforwardly replied, “Name and date of birth, please.”
Finding someone was not a new task for her; it was simple.
The young girl pursed her lips and said, “His name is Han Lin, male, and he looks around the same age as me.”
“About the same age?” the barrage asked, “Are you not close to him, or did a scammer deceive you?”
“No, he’s not a scammer,” the young girl hurriedly denied. She bit her lip and continued, “He… He’s my boyfriend.”
“A boyfriend, and you don’t know his age and birthdate?” the viewers teased. “Are you dealing with a terrible man?”
“Why are you still with such a scumbag? Do you want him back for the holidays?”
“Finding a three-legged toad is hard, but two-legged men are everywhere!” 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Lu Miao calculated in her mind and her heart moved slightly. “Where did you meet him?”
The young girl hesitated for a while before hesitantly said, “In my dreams.”
“Dreams?” the viewers continued, “Are you serious? Nowadays, dreaming of a guy means he’s your boyfriend?”
“I think you’re sent by some influencer to deliberately stir up trouble.”
“I’ll join in on this too, show us how much they paid you, and we’ll split it.”
“I’m not a hater, nor am I here to cause trouble. I genuinely want to find him,” the young girl said, on the verge of tears.
Lu Miao nodded, showing belief. “Did he ask you to find him?”
The young girl clenched her teeth, remaining silent.
“If you don’t believe me, I can refund the gifts, and you can seek help elsewhere,” Lu Miao said directly.
The young girl hurriedly spoke, “I do trust you. It’s just that this might sound unbelievable.”
Taking a deep breath, she then revealed everything.
“About a week ago, I dreamt of a guy at night. He said his name was Han Lin, tall, handsome, and kind-hearted. In the dream, we went to many places together, played together, and he took me to eat various delicious food. He even said he liked me.
At first, when I woke up, I thought it was just a dream and didn’t think too much about it.
But then, for the next three nights, I dreamt of him again. On the fourth day, in the last part of the dream, he gave me an address and asked me to find him.
After waking up, I went to the address he gave me, specifically looking for him.
However, that place turned out to be a ruin, and there was no one there.”
“Are you sure you’re not just falling in love? Isn’t this just a regular lucid dream, quite common during adolescence?” the viewers asked.
“Yes, I often dream about dating my idol. Should I also go looking for him?” another comment chimed in.
“Perhaps you’ve been alone for too long; try going out more and find someone you like to date!” another helpful suggestion from the viewer.
The barrage was full of well-meaning suggestions.
However, the young girl shook her head nervously and said again, “After that night, when I returned home, I dreamt of him again. In the dream, he kept holding my arm and asking why I hadn’t gone to find him.
The next morning, when I woke up, there were marks on my arm.”
As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeve, placing her wrist in front of the camera.
There were clearly visible bruises on her once delicate and fair wrist.
Four marks were on one side, and only one on the other, even the texture of the finger joints was imprinted clearly.
“Could it be a malicious spirit and not your boyfriend?” someone in the barrage speculated.
“Damn, that’s so creepy! Please don’t go looking for him anymore!” another comment urged.
“Miss, could you show us if something dirty has attached to you?” one viewer asked.
Lu Miao tapped her finger gently on the table and said, “You lied. You did go to the address he gave you, but the place you found was not a ruin.”
Upon hearing this, the young girl’s face turned pale, and she stammered, “I…
1…”
Lu Miao glanced at her lightly and said directly, “The place you found was a crematorium!”
“A crematorium? Damn, are you out of your mind to continue looking?” the barrage reacted with shock.
“Please stop obsessing about this love thing and run away quickly,” another comment advised.
The young girl had hesitated to tell the truth earlier because she feared being labeled as crazy. But now that Lu Miao had already spoken, there was no need to hide anymore.
She said nervously, “I was indeed scared, but later, every time I closed my eyes, I could see him questioning me in my dream. Also, every time I thought of him, my heart would ache. I couldn’t focus on my work; my mind was only filled with one thought—finding him. I thought maybe I had remembered the address incorrectly and went to the wrong place. If there really is such a person in this world, I want to find him and figure out what all of this is about. I’m sorry for not telling you earlier; I was afraid people would call me crazy.”
“No need to find him.”
Lu Miao said straightforwardly, “The address you followed was indeed the one he gave you.”
The young girl turned pale, “You mean he… he’s really…”
“Exactly,” Lu Miao confirmed. She didn’t say that the man was currently right beside her.
“It’s called a yin peach blossom,” she added.
One of the viewers explained, “I know! It’s when the opposite gender’s ghost lingers around you. No matter how good the person seems, or how sweet their words are, you must not accept their invitation. If you do, something bad will happen, as they actually want to use you as a substitute.”
The young girl listened to the explanation and became even more frightened,
“What… what should I do? Will he take me away?”
Lu Miao pressed her forehead and realized that it was troublesome, even through the internet.
She had the ability to draw talismans and expel the male ghost, but that wouldn’t solve the problem fundamentally.
“It’s too late today, and there are some things you can’t prepare for. I’ll draw a talisman for you, and you can change it into your phone screen saver. Remember to keep your phone next to your pillow when you sleep, and don’t let the screen turn off until dawn.”
“Then, tomorrow, go to the market and buy a rooster, a bottle of white liquor, and a handful of rice. I’ll contact you in the evening and tell you what to do.” The young girl nodded anxiously, “Okay.”
Lu Miao opened her phone’s note app and swiftly drew a talisman, then took a screenshot and sent it to the young girl.
Once she confirmed the setup on the video, Lu Miao ended the call.
“Young Missy. remember to have her livestream tomorrow. It’s so thrilling: we
want to see too!” the barrage eagerly asked.
The comments in the chat room were excited and nervous.
Lu Miao raised an eyebrow, her voice slightly raised, “Aren’t you afraid that after watching the livestream, you’ll be haunted too?” The previously lively comments instantly fell silent..
