Falling in Love Inside an Urban LegendChapter 42

“Honk–”

The sound of the car horn was particularly piercing in the quiet night. Wex4t8

Yao Ye hurriedly released the car horn button which he had accidentally pressed, and nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He started the car and drove out of the villa with two mangled monster corpses in the trunk.

He was going to the reservoir in the suburbs to dispose of the bodies.

Only by doing this could he bury all the crimes from this night. duMJCT

Now Yao Ye was really glad that Ming An’s villa was located in a deserted area, all the surveillance was controlled from the villa, allowing him to move the corpses into the car with no scruples and then to hide the corpses.

As long as the corpses could not be found, the police have no reason to suspect him…at least there is no evidence to convict him.

Yao Ye did not know whether his plan would work, but he did not wish to go to prison. This idea to dump the corpses was the best solution he could think of.

“Huff! Huff!”

Rn4e5P

Yao Ye overly tensed emotions placed a great burden on his heart, his heart rate was very fast and his breathing became heavier.

Looking at the endless road in front of him, while driving in the deserted suburbs in the dead of the night, Yao Ye was very scared. He gritted his teeth and suppressed the tears in his eyes so that he would not start to cry out.

He really could not understand why everything suddenly became like this.

The rich man had clearly died and while he was still grieving, in a blink of an eye, he became a murder suspect. x AhY1

No, it’s not me, I did not commit a crime, it’s those things that are monsters.

Yao Ye shook his head, in a trance.

But, will anyone believe me?

Saying such nonsense like the corpse resurrected, I will be regarded as a madman! FWBXip

Soon, the car stopped beside the reservoir.

Yao Ye tremblingly opened the car door and left the car. Looking at the desolate surroundings, he swallowed and walked towards the trunk.

This was the abandoned reservoir in Lihe city, there was only stagnant water with very few fish in it.

Due to construction of new irrigation networks, this small reservoir became less utilised and was simply abandoned. If the body was hidden at the bottom of the reservoir, no one would definitely find it. nIRQ9J

After opening the trunk, Yao Ye looked at the large suitcase with some fear on his face.

To save his own future, Yao Ye gritted his teeth and pulled out the suitcase. He almost could not pull out the suitcase due to its heavy weight.

Rustle Rustle— wqNAZD

Just as Yao Ye managed to pull out the suitcase with much difficulty, there was a rustling sound. Yao Ye’s hair stood on end and he looked around, he did not notice anything unusual.

The suitcase started to shake slightly, as if there was something that was trying to break out.

Yao Ye stared firmly at the suitcase and nervously bit his fingers, his mental state was on the verge of collapse. nDS5Ab

“It’s impossible…they should be dead…”

“No…it is possible they resurrected… to take revenge…”

Yao Ye hesitated for a moment. Although he was clearly afraid and his whole body was shaking, he still resolutely pulled the handle of the suitcase and dragged it towards the reservoir.

Regardless of whether the monster is going to revive…he must hide them in the reservoir. Otherwise, he would be the one who’s going to be dead. 2DRcOL

“This is a hallucination…it’s all a hallucination…”

Yao Ye desperately repeated it to calm himself while using all his strength to drag the heavy suitcase behind him.

Plop!!!

The suitcase slowly sank into the reservoir. GFxV29

Yao Ye did not dare to stay and see how deep the reservoir was. After throwing the suitcase, he ran towards the car without looking back.

“Pant Pant!”

Yao Ye was gasping for breath, he took the cloth in the car and wiped the blood in the trunk until there were no traces left. Afterwards, he carefully threw the cloth into the reservoir.

The pitch-dark reservoir was silent, hiding all its secrets. iDBG73

Yao Ye closed the trunk, quickly got into the driver’s seat and drove away.

With the departure of the uninvited guest, Yao Ye, the reservoir returned to its original silence.

Only the suitcase, which had sunk to the bottom, continued to make a “crunch crunch” chewing and struggling sounds, as if there was something furiously fighting another thing. It was full of vague groaning sounds, not resembling a human voice.

Blood seeped out from the black suitcase and gradually spread to the whole reservoir. ybNdL7

After driving back to the villa, Yao Ye was already very tired. However, seeing that it was almost 4 o’clock, he pulled himself together and cleaned the whole living room.

The black footprints were easy to clean while the blood stained sheets and quilts were hidden in the junk room. Only the blood near the entrance was difficult to clean, no matter how he wiped it he could not wipe it clean.

Clatter—

Yao Ye weakly poured a bucket filled with cold water near the entrance, trying to wash away the bloodstains on the floor. Most of the bloodstains disappeared but a small portion still could not be cleaned. dOZdUY

Yao Ye had no choice but to find a rectangular carpet to cover the not big yet not small bloodstain.

Seeing the restored living room and bedroom, Yao Ye eased up a little and took a short nap. He would wait until all the servants had arrived before casually finding a reason to dismiss them.

Looking at the servants who had angrily left, Yao Ye rubbed his bloodshot eyes and quickly packed his things and left the villa, no longer caring about the future.

Yao Ye returned to the apartment which he had bought with his savings and slept for three days before recovering. Afterwards, he became very haggard and sensitive, even the slightest movement could scare him into hiding. KSL8B4

He kept the lights on for the whole day, but he kept the curtains tightly shut. He did not step out of the house, living like a rat in the sewer.

Ding Dong–

The doorbell rang, it’s the takeout delivery.

Yao Ye opened the door to receive the food after confirming that it was the delivery person through the peephole. Afterwards, he immediately shut the door, as if he was afraid of some terrifying existence. auzeMX

Opening the takeout, Yao Ye wolfed it down.

His short black hair was messy, his originally plump face became much thinner, however it did not damage his beauty, only adding a sense of fragility to his beauty.

Yao Ye ate while he turned on the television which he had not watched in a long time, intending to find out if there was any recent news.

For the past few days, he was afraid that the police would come and arrest him, so he did not dare to even turn on the television. Now he had slowly settled down, even regained some courage, wanting to know what was going on outside. etmduB

Turning to the local news channel, it was totally peaceful. There was no news on the brothers, Ming An and Ming Yun, this made Yao Ye a little confused.

Even though Ming An and Ming Yun both kept a low profile, they were still one of the people in Keli city with the most assets.

At the present, one of them could be considered dead while the other was missing, the outside world could not be so quiet about this situation.

Could it be that Ming Yun had not been found to be missing yet? dcKVDe

Yao Ye guessed that after all Ming Yun had always been confined in the villa, maybe the outside world had not known of his existence.

Yao Ye lowered his head and looked at the exquisite food in the takeout box. He remembered Ming An and Ming Yun’s final moments.

In order to conveniently store the corpses in the suitcase, he had to divide them into pieces with his own hands. With blood dripping everywhere, it was a stomach churning sight.

“Blech–” nZGTtb

Yao Ye’s face paled while he covered his mouth, he quickly ran to the bathroom and vomited, he was in great agony.

His stomach retched in protest of his recent irregular sleep schedule and overanxiety.

Yao Ye felt he was really close to losing his sanity, he could not control his tears and it flowed down his face again.

He was already numb and he did not wish to cry. 75xONz

But his tear glands seemed to be out of control and he cried his heart out.

After a long time, Yao Ye’s mood gradually stabilised, then he returned back to the living room and mechanically finished his cold takeout.

The television started to repeat the news broadcasted a few days ago. Yao Ye saw the date and realised that he had stayed in his room for a full month.

“Due to the heavy rainfall, there has been severe flooding in the city…however there has been an unforeseen accident, the abandoned Three Trenches Reservoir has overflowed…currently the impact is estimated to be small, please do not be alarmed.” 5J b24

! ! !

The beautiful hostess on the television elegantly and eloquently broadcasted the news.

However, Yao Ye’s pupils constricted, looking at the pictures on the news, he had difficulty breathing.

Three Trenches Reservoir…it is the reservoir where he dumped the corpses. dHXT6N

Overflow?

What? Are you kidding me?
It’s just a small reservoir…that river was clearly about to dry up soon isn’t it?

Why…why?

Yao Ye fished out his phone and began to search for the relevant information on his phone. Until he found that the impact of the reservoir overflow was minimal and corpses had not resurfaced, he breathed a sigh of relief. kVdtPQ

He bit on his already scarred fingers and nervously muttered to himself, “It’s okay, it’s okay, it won’t, it won’t be discovered…”

That’s right, with such a heavy suitcase that he even stuffed stones into it, it will definitely not resurface, he does not need to worry.

Ding Dong– a bell sound resonated.

Yao Ye’s hair burst in fright, he stared wide-eyed towards the direction of the sound, only to realise that it was his phone. whV2dG

He picked up his phone and saw that an announcement was sent in his QQ group chat.

【Class Monitor: I am holding a class gathering this week, I hope that my classmates will give me some face [smile emoji] 】

Yao Ye opened up his QQ group chat and watched the conversation of his energetic classmates joking around. His originally tense nerves relaxed as he slowly calmed down.

Maybe it’s time for him to go out and hang out. He had been locked in this place for sometime, he’s afraid he might be driven crazy. rGOFX5

Yao Ye, who was amused by the jokes from his classmates, showed his first smile since the past few days, his mood became a little better.

“Captain! The ghost realm has opened and the whole team is ready!”

The serious-looking man in military uniform saluted the captain in front of him.

“Noted, okay you all should totally understand the storyline of this ghost realm. Your previous comrades paid for it with their deaths. Now they cannot continue and can only stay in the hospital to recuperate. We must accomplish the mission for them! Do you understand!” the captain with a dark and serious face roared loudly. OQYFjr

The resolute soldiers in full gear responded loudly, “Reporting to the Captain! Understood!”

“Okay! Now move out!”

Rumble–

A huge crack appeared in the sky covered by a black fog, and the smell of danger stimulated the nerves of every soldier. lh8S g

This battle must be won.

Translator's Note

Not to sure why it’s Lihe here, in chapter 3.1 the city was named Keli and below Keli was mentioned again. I guess it might be a typo?

Translator's Note

三沟 This is a direct translation of the name of the reservoir, Sangou. This is a fictitious reservoir.

Translator's Note

企鹅群 which directly translates to penguin group. QQ is a popular chat app in china and the app logo is a penguin.

Translator's Note

To show or treat someone with respect. The class monitor is implying that everyone in the class should come so the class monitor would not be embarrassed by the low turnout rate. In Chinese culture, one’s face is one’s dignity.
