Chapter 437 (2 chapters combined) Arrival
This chapter is incomplete!
I suggest reading it together with the new chapter tomorrow.
I won't get home until very late. I've been busy all day, so I can only squeeze in some time to write this. I'll finish it tomorrow.
Thank you all for your understanding TT
Stable updates will resume starting tomorrow.
I don’t know how long it took.
The train was still traveling at high speed, showing no sign of stopping.
Only the flight attendant wearing a peaked cap was still wandering in the aisle, pushing an empty cart, silently scanning the nine living people in the carriage.
It's supposed to seat nine people, but this carriage... is actually almost full.
Tian Qinghe looked away and noticed something very strange.
The new "passengers" were all dressed in the style of the 80s and 90s, which matches the era in which the ghost stories take place.
"The ghost in front of the child might be the migrant worker next to the welder in a ghost story."
Tian Qinghe tilted her head slightly towards the ghost with its head and body reversed and whispered, "The voice, the snakeskin bag it's carrying... all the characteristics match."
"The ghost next to the child's father's seat—the one reading the newspaper—I remember you mentioned it in your story as well."
Wei Lan's throat moved slightly as she glanced around very quickly.
Indeed, as Tian Qinghe said.
"You mean, our two trains overlapped after so many years?" she asked softly.
“Yes.” Tian Qinghe nodded. “But there’s a problem: where did the protagonist of the story go?”
Protagonist...
Wei Lan was taken aback. She looked up again and gazed in the direction of the migrant workers.
She clearly remembered that the welder was supposed to sit in a row with the migrant workers, but there was only one ghost in that row!
"The welder isn't in the car?"
Tian Qinghe frowned and looked at the carriage in front of her through the glass door.
Power has been restored there, and the lights are bright.
You can vaguely see someone's legs sticking out of their seat, which proves that there are also passengers in the carriage ahead.
There were no welders to be seen at the junction of the carriages.
“He was smoking there at the end of the story,” Wei Lan murmured. She was now almost certain that the welder’s story was not finished.
They all died, but the vast majority of passengers died in the carriage, which was the last place they were in before they died. So why did the welder disappear?
While I was pondering, I suddenly heard a series of rapid breaths behind me.
"Uh...uh..."
Tian Qinghe's heart sank suddenly. She immediately turned her head and saw a flushed face in the last row of seats.
The young man wearing headphones.
He gripped his neck tightly with one hand, his face covered in cold sweat, veins bulging, but his eyes were filled with endless fear.
"What is he doing?"
Wei Lan watched this scene in disbelief—a living, breathing person was actually going to strangle her with their own hands!
Tian Qinghe did not answer, but stared at the seat next to the young man, her brows slightly furrowed.
There was an old woman with a hunched back.
He was in his seventies or eighties, and very short, perhaps because he had done a lot of farm work; his back was almost bent at a right angle.
Its presence is very low compared to other ghosts.
Tian Qinghe was quite certain that she had never heard this ghost speak or make any big moves before.
It's the same now.
She remained expressionless, slowly peeling something, as if she couldn't see the young man beside her who was suffocating to death.
No one could leave their seats, and without help, the young man's body struggled violently for the last two moments before suddenly convulsing and remaining still.

I'll finish the rest tomorrow. Thank you for your understanding.
