Chapter 103 Gu Ye (ETL) Part 2

===

Chapter 103 I’ll beat you to death, you bastard!

At this moment, someone put forward a point of view: [This virus started to spread from the campus, so the origin must be on the campus. Who else can make such a powerful virus?]

As soon as this point of view came out, many people agreed: [Could it be that big god is doing something terrible again, and it was accidentally leaked?]

[Question: Which big god are you talking about?]

[Who else could it be? That one in 3rd year.]

[Code name is ZZ. He has won many international awards for programming. It is said that he is also a hacker in private. He has participated in international hacker competitions and won awards. I have seen him in person. He is very handsome but very frivolous.]

[Didn’t he go to participate in the National Robot Programming Competition?]

[He came back two days ago and won the gold medal again!]

[Damn! If you count it this way, the school really started to have this virus after he came back.]

Someone in the thread kindly reminded everyone: [Don’t say anything more. If he sees it, your computer will be blacked out. Don’t you still want to go online in the future?]

It was unknown how the conversation went on, but in just one morning, many students in the school thought that the creator of this virus was the legendary god ZZ.

Gu Ye looked at the forum thread for a while and still felt that it didn’t look like a virus. But he didn’t know much about this aspect (hacking stuff), so Gu Ye asked the senior sisters, “What is ZZ’s real name and where is he?”

The senior sisters told Gu Ye, “It’s a senior who is engaged in programming in the third year. His name is Mu Jingzhuo, and he has won many awards for programming. He is in school these 2 days. Do you have something to do with him?”

When Gu Ye heard this name, he wondered to himself why it felt so familiar.

“By the way,” the senior sisters reminded Gu Ye specifically, “Don’t go alone and bring a friend with you. This senior… is a bit flirtatious.”

Gu Ye’s mouth twitched, what the hell is flirtatious? Are all seniors so abnormal?

After school, Gu Ye went directly to the building for the 3rd year and asked several people before finding this senior. As soon as the other party came out, Gu Ye raised his eyebrows. This senior really didn’t look like a hacker or a programmer. He was tall, well-proportioned, and had a handsome and sunny face. The senior walked to the door and looked at Gu Ye. Then he asked with a smile, “Junior, do you have something to ask me? Want to date?”

Gu Ye was speechless. He now understood why the senior was labeled as flirtatious. Gu Ye said seriously, “Senior, I have something serious to ask you.”

Mu Jingzhuo smiled and cornered Gu Ye against the wall with one hand. He said with a smile, “Go ahead. And do you want to date me after asking?”

The other party’s words were too frivolous. Gu Ye tsk-ed and took out his mobile phone. After that, he sent a voice message to Mu Jingfei: “Sister Mu, your younger brother seggxually harassed me.”

“Aiya! I’m kidding you!” The flirtatious senior immediately stiffened as if he was stung by a bee. He couldn’t continue being flirtatious anymore, and explained anxiously, “I heard my sister mention you a long time ago, so I wanted to tease you. Quickly recall that message!”

At this moment, Gu Ye’s mobile phone rang. The caller ID was: Sister Mu.

Gu Ye answered the call with a smile and heard the uncontrollable anger on the other side. Mu Jingfei gnashed her teeth and roared, “Mu Jingzhuo! Don’t you dare touch a hair of Gu Ye! Or I will destroy you!”

The declaration made Gu Ye nod. This feels like Mu Jingfei was his biological sister while Mu Jingzhuo was someone picked up from somewhere.

Mu Jingzhuo sighed and didn’t dare to tease anymore, “It’s just a joke, it’s really just a joke, don’t take it seriously.”

Gu Ye thought about Mu Jingfei and then looked at the handsome guy in front of him. The brother and sister looked very similar, but their personalities were very different.

After finding a place to sit, Gu Ye asked Mu Jingzhuo some questions about network viruses. After Mu Jingzhuo explained, he asked with a smile, “Do you also suspect that I created this virus?”

Gu Ye shook his head, “I just think that this doesn’t look like a virus, so I came to you, a professional, to confirm it.”

Mu Jingzhuo raised his eyebrows, “I have to say that you are really good at seeing things, unlike those idiots who have taken brain-dead pills.” He held his chin and told Gu Ye very confidently, “This is not a virus at all. Computer viruses don’t spread like this, and it is impossible to be traceless.”

Gu Ye went online again and checked the students’ messages. He summarized that the occurrence all happened in the second half of the night when the yin energy was the heaviest.

Students were concentrating on doing one thing with their mobile phones or computers, and their minds were highly concentrated. Most of the time, they were playing games, reading novels, and watching movies. They were concentrating on something, and the virus suddenly popped up, scaring people to tears and screams before going away by itself. Moreover, it would not leave any traces. After being scared by it, if you unplug the power supply, the computer can still be used the next day (when plugged back).

Mu Jingzhuo looked at Gu Ye’s serious expression and leaned over. He asked in a low voice, “I heard from my sister that you can catch ghosts. Do you think this is a haunting case?”

Taking a deep breath, Gu Ye resisted the urge to hit Mu Jingzhuo and said, “You flirt with everyone you see, aren’t you afraid of getting beaten?”

Mu Jingzhuo smiled and said nonchalantly, “I don’t flirt with everyone I see, I only flirt with good-looking people.”

Gu Ye curled his lips, “You look fancy on the surface, but you are actually empty and lonely inside. Whether you are miserable or not, only you know.”

Hearing that, Mu Jingzhuo went still and he looked at Gu Ye defensively. He saw that Gu Ye’s eyes were as black as ink as if they were darker than those of normal people. Mu Jingzhuo felt more and more that he was seen through by these eyes, and even his expression became cold.

As if he didn’t see the change of expression, Gu Ye said lightly, “Since I have verified the matter with you, I can’t owe you. What are you seeking for? I can help you tell the fortune. Looking for someone or looking for something?”

Mu Jingzhuo’s expression turned cold, “How do you know I’m looking for something?”

Gu Ye smiled, “From your complexion, you have been looking for at least 5 years, but you haven’t found it. Write a word and I’ll tell it for you.”

Seeing Gu Ye so calm, Mu Jingzhuo hesitated for a moment. There were some things that he didn’t want to face. Being seen through by Gu Ye, a stranger, he was a little resistant and defensive.

Gu Ye urged, “Hurry up and tell me, I’ll tell you the fortune. If you can find it, you will find it. If you can’t, then it’s not your destiny, so you should give up.”

Mu Jingzhuo had a gloomy face. After being silent for more than 10 seconds, he finally stretched out his hand and wrote the word ‘Tong/桐’ on the table stroke by stroke.

After reading the word, Gu Ye looked at Mu Jingzhuo with sympathy, “Don’t look for him anymore, and don’t wait any longer, he won’t come back.”

Mu Jingzhuo’s pupils shrank, “Why?”

Gu Ye calmly explained, “The word Tong/桐, is written like a mouth/口 enclosed inside a wooden/木 circle. The mouth represents a person, the wooden circle is like a coffin. A person in the coffin, he is dead.”

Watching Mu Jingzhuo’s expression return to calm after being shocked, Gu Ye stood up, “The fortune telling is over, I’m leaving. You have to let it go.”

Mu Jingzhuo sat there in a daze for a long time, until Gu Ye’s figure disappeared from sight. Then Mu Jingzhuo called his sister, “Sister, Gu Ye said that Wu Tong is dead.”

On the other side of the line, Mu Jingfei said calmly, “Yes, no one will stand in front of you in the future, no one will protect you from the wind and rain, and no one will clean up your mess after you get into trouble. It’s all lies that he went abroad to recuperate. You are not young anymore, you should face the reality. Even if you don’t like my profession, you should think about what you want to do in the future.”

Mu Jingzhuo’s eyes were red, and he murmured, “I understand, I should have understood it long ago.”

Gu Ye received a call from Mu Jingfei before he got home, “Thank you for waking him up today.”

Gu Ye was embarrassed, “I actually didn’t understand what I did.”

“A word from a stranger from the perspective of an onlooker is better than a thousand words of comfort from family members.”

Mu Jingfei sighed before continuing, “Our whole family is in the police force. My grandfather, my father, my mother, my uncle, all of them are police. 5 years ago, in order to threaten my father, criminals kidnapped Jingzhuo and me, as well as my father’s adopted child, who was also the son of a colleague who died. His name was Wu Tong.”

“Wu Tong and I are the same age. He has protected us like a big brother since we were young. That time, he died in the hands of criminals to save us. That causes Jingzhuo to fall into a mental breakdown. So, we had been lying to him that Wu Tong was recovering abroad and then, disappeared. He actually knew that Wu Tong was dead, but he just didn’t dare to face the reality. He looked carefree every day, but he was actually suffering in his heart.”

Gu Ye understood why Mu Jingzhuo had that expression just now, “It’s good that he dared to face it. The moment he dares to face the truth, he’s already halfway to get out.”

“Yes, thank you. When we have the time, big sister will treat you to dinner.”

Gu Ye smiled, “Let’s talk about it when we have time.” There was something he didn’t dare to say, which is sooner or later we are a family, no need to be polite1.

In the evening, Gu Ye enthusiastically invited Zhao Pengyu and Xia Xiang, “Come to my house tonight to play games. Tomorrow is Saturday and we have no classes, so we can play all night.”

Zhao Pengyu asked Gu Ye suspiciously, “Didn’t we agree to study every day? What are you thinking?”

Gu Ye said seriously, “Studying also requires a combination of work and rest. I want to grind for points. Let’s play in a three-person team!”

Zhao Pengyu couldn’t resist the persuasion and agreed, “Okay! Let’s play all night tonight, whoever quits is a dog!”

At the side, Xia Xiang looked at Gu Ye’s smiling face inquiringly. His intuition told him that Gu Ye was up to no good.

Gu Ye bought a lot of snacks and drinks and returned home. The three of them sat on a sofa each and found a comfortable position to play the game. Xia Xiang called Ling Ling to his side and hugged her in his arms, “Your uncle’s personal safety is in your hands tonight.”

Gu Ye reminded Xia Xiang, “Fight well in the game, and don’t be distracted.”

Xia Xiang rolled his eyes at Gu Ye, “I need my niece to protect me.”

After looking at their expressions, Zhao Pengyu finally understood, “You guys are not… Shiet! I don’t want to be bait!”

Zhao Pengyu stood up and wanted to leave, but Gu Ye pushed him down, “Listen to me, you want to.”

“I don’t want to! Aunt, let me go!”

Gu Ye wanted to hit Zhao Pengyu even more, “The twins also know how to call me Uncle! When they call me Aunt, it must be you who taught them!”

Zhao Pengyu hugged the pillow to protect his head. Then he tilted his neck and shouted, “Sister Hong Dou, come out and save me!”

Xia Xiang couldn’t stand it anymore, “Have some shame! Don’t always think about Sister Hong Dou!”

Zhao Pengyu was kicked twice but there was nothing he could do. Ling Ling had been taken away already. So, he went to the study and held Kuman Thong in his arms. His expression immediately became much better. “Come on! Let’s play!”

Gu Ye saw that Zhao Pengyu was very excited and not scared anymore. Then, he looked at Xia Xiang again. The other party was calmer, holding a mobile phone in one hand and snacks in the other. These 2 people without spiritual power, each holding a non-human, urged him with their eyes to come play quickly.

Gu Ye wants to applaud them. These two people were big-hearted.

Time passed unknowingly while playing games. It was not until the second half of the night when Zhao Pengyu opened a can of Red Bull to stay awake. No matter what the purpose of playing games tonight was, he would not sleep.

After playing for another 2 hours, and another half an hour, he was banned because of being online for too long, but the ‘virus’ still didn’t come.

Zhao Pengyu was still excited to play, “If we can’t play this game, let’s change to shooting game.”

Xia Xiang yawned. As a good baby, he was so sleepy that his eyes were blurry and he could hardly open his eyes.

Gu Ye took a thin blanket and threw it to Xia Xiang, “You go to sleep, we’ll play for a while.”

Xia Xiang pulled the pillow and fell down, “Can you use something to lure him over? How long can we wait like this? I see he’s busy with his ‘job’. It’s said in the forum that he approaches more girls than guys. He should still be wandering around the girls’ dormitory at this time, right?”

Zhao Pengyu grinned in disdain, “This is a stinky hooligan, huh? I must take him out tonight and beat him into a pig’s head.”

Gu Ye pondered for a while, “Ling Ling, light an incense. Light the best one.”

Following Gu Ye’s instruction, Ling Ling jumped down to go to the study and took out a stick of incense. Zhao Pengyu was curious, “Can this incense lure him out?”

“This is soul-attracting incense. If it’s a ghost, it can’t resist the temptation of this incense. If the other party is nearby, he should be able to smell it. But if far away and separated by the network, I don’t know if it will work.”

“No matter if it works or not, try it.” Zhao Pengyu kicked Xia Xiang out of the team and started another game with Gu Ye.

Xia Xiang looked around the room and helplessly covered his head with a blanket. The room was too ‘crowded’.

After playing for just over 10 minutes, Gu Ye saw the smoke from the burning incense circling above his head. Gu Ye’s eyes lit up and he winked at Zhao Pengyu. But Zhao Pengyu was completely immersed in the pleasure of the game and did not receive Gu Ye’s signal. Gu Ye had no choice but to follow Zhao Pengyu to run in the game. Just when the two entered the finals and were concentrating on the game, Gu Ye finally noticed a faint ghost aura, so faint that it was almost impossible to catch. This ghost aura was different from other ghosts.

The ghost aura kept running around on the two people’s mobile phones, and it seemed that it had not decided which one to scare. Gu Ye narrowed his eyes and asked cautiously in a low voice, “Zhao Pengyu, did the other side see me?”

Zhao Pengyu’s fighting spirit burned fiercely, “See you? Then stand up and fight him! Fight head-on!”

Zhao Pengyu jumped up in the game and rushed forward with a gun in hand. Gu Ye hesitated for a moment and crawled behind him. It was obvious that Gu Ye was a much ‘weaker’ one. After a slight pause, Gu Ye felt that the ghost energy ran to his side.

Zhao Pengyu had already exchanged fire with the other party. Seeing that Gu Ye did not catch up, he shouted, “Don’t be a coward, hit him!”

“Here it comes.” Gu Ye had just finished speaking when the screen of his mobile phone went black in an instant. A sinister ghost face with scarlet eyes and a big grin appeared on the screen. Two hands were scratching the screen, making a motion to tear the screen to crawl out.

Gu Ye stared at the other party expressionlessly and blinked.

Seeing Gu Ye’s reaction, the ghost was stunned for a moment. Then he retreated in an instant and returned with another face with blood flowing from all 7 orifices2. He opened his mouth like a bottomless pit to Gu Ye as if he wanted to suck Gu Ye’s soul through the screen.

Gu Ye hooked his fingers with a cold expression and pinched a soul-binding finger gesture. After that, he grabbed the scary ghost attached to his phone, and threw him to the ground, “I’ll beat you to death, you bastard!”
