Chapter 41): My Friends at Home
Squeak!
Turning the door handle and pushing the door open, a thin layer of dust greeted Lu Yibei’s face. He frowned, covering his mouth and nose with one hand, and walked into the apartment.
He was gone for a mere ten days, and yet it was as if no one had lived here for the past year or two.
The dust in the air fell upon him like a veil; everywhere he moved, the dust moved like ripples in a lake. In an instant, his eyes burnt and beckoned him to look upwards.
In his cool-toned living room, tiny streamers flew across the room, and a few figures were revelling at his huge coffee table.
Eyeballs that bounced up and down in an endless manner, a mottled wig, a tattered, white nightgown, a pair of dentures that was smoking a cigarette, the coat that was cursed by Mr Rabbit, anthropomorphic figures that twisted among the shadows—his entire apartment was like a gathering for these strange things.
Fine dust particles would orbit around them before shooting out at high speeds as if their bodies were a slingshot.
‘What the hell? A disco for urban legends?’
Yibei couldn’t help but stare at the scene before him. It was no wonder why his house would be so dusty—these guys were the culprits!
