Chapter 487: Chapter 484 Change
Miao Xiaoshan and two other classmates parted ways, choosing to walk back to school slowly with Yang Jian.
Along the way, she had a lot of conversations with Yang Jian.
"You know? After I got into university, I chose a relatively unpopular history departnt,” Miao Xiaoshan said with a smile while walking: “My cousin said this major has no future. It would be difficult to find a job after graduation, which definitely wouldn’t be good for my future developnt. He suggested I should choose another major.”
"Your cousin? Shangguan Yun?” Yang Jian rembered her cousin.
The unlucky guy who was once trapped inside the Ghost Mirror, but fortunately, he was saved by him.
"Mhm, he often talks about you, saying that if there’s a chance, he must treat you to a al,” Miao Xiaoshan said.
...
"It’s good that your cousin is fine. There’s no need for a al,” Yang Jian said.
Miao Xiaoshan continued, “How are they doing lately? I only know that Zhang Wei has been live streaming in Dachang City recently. I’ve lost contact with everyone else. Do you know how they are?”
They referred to the few classmates who survived the supernatural events when they were at No. 7 Middle School.
Although a few of them were not very close, as survivors who had experienced supernatural events together, there was a certain resonance between them.
It was like comrades who had been through the battlefield together, always keeping an eye on each other after surviving.
"Wang Shanshan is still the sa. She has so health issues,” Yang Jian said calmly: “Sun Ren and Liu Qi left Dachang City a long ti ago. I’m not close to them and don’t have their contact information. As for Zhang Lei… he’s dead.”
Dead?

Miao Xiaoshan’s body trembled slightly, she lifted her head a bit in shock and said, “How could this happen? He was fine when I last saw him, how could he suddenly
She knew that Yang Jian used to hang out with Zhang Wei and Zhang Lei. She didn’t expect that in just a few months, she would hear the news of Zhang Lei’s death.
"He accidentally got involved in a supernatural event. I tried to save him but failed. My abilities were not sufficient at that ti.”
Yang Jian said, “Actually, strictly speaking, Wang Shanshan is also dead. Her current state is like a living dead person, her emotions growing ever fainter, her body ever colder, and it’s because of my reasons.”
"You should have noticed so changes in her at the last class reunion.”
At this point, Yang Jian paused, then turned to look at her: “Those two we don’t know well, Sun Ren and Liu Qi, I have no idea how they are now, but all seven of us who survived the supernatural event seem to be cursed in a way, and none of us ended up well. Don’t look at Zhang Wei live streaming and playing happily on the internet every day. In reality, he has also experienced several supernatural events and, strictly speaking, he’s died once as well.”
The Ghost Mirror resurrected Zhang Wei. If not for that ti, grass would already be growing on Zhang Wei’s grave by now.
"Miao Xiaoshan, you’re lucky. At least since then, your life has returned to normal, and I hope you can continue living normally, which is why you should stay away from people like ,” Yang Jian said.
Miao Xiaoshan looked back with a sowhat delicate gaze: “Do you think you brought misfortune to others? Do you feel guilty, which is why you’ve beco solitary? You’re wrong. This has nothing to do with you. Do you rember? You saved Wang Shanshan, you saved Zhang Lei, you saved all of us. If not for you, we would all have died in No. 7 Middle School.”
"Supernatural events bring death, and getting too close inevitably affects you. You’ve experienced a supernatural event and should understand how desperate ordinary people feel when they’re caught up in it. Nobody wants to go through it a second ti, not even ,” Yang Jian said.
"You’ve changed a lot these past few months.” Miao Xiaoshan didn’t know how to reply, simply saying softly, “I feel like you’re constantly losing sothing.”
"That’s what growing up is,” Yang Jian said.
"So, you won’t contact anymore?” Miao Xiaoshan asked.
Yang Jian turned his head to look at the dim sky in the distance: “If it’s not necessary, we should contact each other less. It would be better for you.”
"Then why did you still leave your contact information?” Miao Xiaoshan’s tone beca a bit resentful.
"Maybe one day you will need my help, and besides, contacting over the phone won’t affect you much,” Yang Jian said.
At that mont, Miao Xiaoshan fell silent.
She was beginning to understand the aning of a phrase: The world has changed; the people are no longer the sa.
Seeing Yang Jian again, he was no longer the Yang Jian she rembered. He had changed a lot, beco much more of a stranger.
She had known Yang Jian for at least six years, from middle school to high school, accompanying her through her entire adolescence. The Yang Jian in her mory had taken a definite shape in her mind, yet it only took six months to completely change a person.
"I don’t want it to be this way,” Miao Xiaoshan said after a long pause.
"Neither do I,” Yang Jian replied.
The two people walked in silence, with fewer and fewer words they could exchange.
At this mont.
Liu Zi, who had left the mall earlier, was sitting in a luxury car.
The driver was a young and handso man nad Li Yang, Liu Zi’s boyfriend.
"Weren’t you out shopping with your classmate? Why are you back so early, did sothing happen?” Li Yang asked with concern.
Liu Zi snorted lightly; “Nothing much, just ran into soone quite annoying. Are there more crazies these days or what? Why would my classmate even know such a person?”
"Is there a need to be so angry about it?” Liu Yang replied with a smile.
"By the way, I don’t want to go back to school tonight, I want to go to Ping’an Hotel,” Liu Zi suddenly said.
Ping’an Hotel?
The smile disappeared from Li Yang’s face as he drove, seemingly becoming a bit horrified, and he abruptly stopped the car: “How do you know about Ping’an Hotel?”
"What’s the matter? Is there a problem? There’s a hotel called that in J City, right? I just searched it up on my phone.” Liu Zi said.
"That place isn’t open to outsiders, better switch to another hotel,” Li Yang’s smile was sowhat strained as he pressed the gas pedal and continued driving.
Liu Zi expressed surprise: “How can it not be open to outsiders? My classmate’s friend is staying at Ping’an Hotel. If soone like him can stay there, why can’t we? Is it really expensive? Does it cost tens of thousands for one night?”
"What? You t soone today who stays at Ping’an Hotel?” Li Yang’s eyes widened in shock.
"That’s what he said, but you haven’t told why we can’t stay at that hotel?” Liu Zi asked, seemingly unconcerned.
Li Yang hurriedly turned the steering wheel to pull over, then turned to her and said, “Listen, Liu Zi, there are so things you don’t understand, and I don’t dare to disclose them to you. Just rember there are two types of people in J City we cannot afford to ss with, let alone even have the privilege of associating with. One type you know about, and the other type, are those who have the qualification to stay at Ping’an Hotel.”
"Especially the latter, you should be more cautious. If you can avoid them, then do so as much as possible.”
"Making it so mysterious, is it really that serious?” Liu Zi pursed her lips.
Li Yang proceeded in a hushed tone, “It’s more serious than you can imagine. Let put it this way, those who are qualified to stay at Ping’an Hotel could kill a few people in the street and not worry about even the slightest consequence. The ones killed would just have to accept their bad luck. This is not sothing that money or power can achieve.”
Liu Zi was montarily stunned when she heard this.
She never expected the unremarkable-looking Yang Jian to be so special and mysterious.
"For your classmate’s friend, try your best to avoid him from now on. If you happen to bump into him by accident, be sure to be respectful. His kind of people are absolutely not to be offended. As for the matter with Ping’an Hotel, let’s drop it here. Knowing too much is not good for you. I used to be just as curious as you, but ever since I learned a bit more, I’ve been genuinely scared,” explained Li Yang, becoming sowhat uneasy himself.
"I got it, I’ll just stay away from that nutjob Yang Jian from now on.” Liu Zi, realizing the severity of the situation, wasn’t persistent with her questions and obediently closed her mouth.
"Yang Jian?”
However, when she ntioned this na, Li Yang clearly froze for a mont: “Wait, where did your classmate study before coming to J City?”
"She took the college entrance exam in Dahan City, but I asked Miao Xiaoshan, and she said she used to study in Dachang City before transferring schools on short notice,” Liu Zi responded.
After hearing this, Li Yang broke into a cold sweat.
Having previously attributed the na to coincidence, he was now almost certain.
The person Liu Zi encountered today was without a doubt Yang Jian from Dachang City.
The one known as Ghost Mirror in the rumors.
He didn’t know much about these special people and the special events surrounding them, but considering the huge stir in Dachang City a few months ago, his family had so connections, his father knew so insider information, and he too was aware of certain details.
"Oh my goodness, how could Liu Zi run into soone like him?” Li Yang was inwardly anxious.
Yet, seeing her nonchalant attitude, it seed she hadn’t realized just how dangerous and special the Yang Jian she’d encountered really was.
