Chapter 175 - The Legend of the Scarecrow (1/2)

On a very quiet and dark street, there were quite a number of young people squatting.

“Hey, did you hear?”

“What?”

“Recently, there was a terrifying legend in our Sarkos City.”

“That… scarecrow?”

“Yes, that’s right!”

“You still believe in that?”

“Sigh, I didn’t believe in it at first, but I had no choice. You’ve met my friend last week, right?”

“Ah, yes, I’ve met him. It’s that crazy fool from last time who said that he often dreamed of the scarecrow chasing after him, right? I’m curious, how did you become friends with that kind of person?”

“That’s him, but he was very normal before, it’s just that he became like that a while ago, and…”

Speaking up to this point, that person deliberately paused for a moment.

This caused the surrounding people to be a little displeased, and one of them urged.

“And what?”

“That’s right, say it, and what?!”

That person said, “and, you don’t know, that friend of mine died two days ago!”

“What?! It can’t be!”

The surrounding people were shocked.

A living person was actually gone just like that?

What was going on?

The group of people was very curious.

That person said, “that’s right, and he died very strangely. I heard that he died while he was sleeping. His body was stuffed with hay, and he was extremely thin, as if he had been sucked dry by something.”

“Not only that, I heard that the day before yesterday, he discovered that my friend’s body had disappeared.”

“And today, did you know?”

“His neighbor said that he saw a scarecrow in his room.”

“The scarecrow jumped down the window. When the neighbor looked down, the scarecrow was already gone.”

“Don’t you think it’s strange?”

After that person finished speaking, the rest of the people immediately looked at each other.

At first, they looked very shocked. Then, with a ‘pfft’ sound, they all burst out loughing loudly.

Obviously, they did not believe it.

The person who told the story was unhappy. “What I said is all true. It’s best for all of you to be careful. Who knows when you might run into that ghostly scarecrow.”

After he finished speaking, someone in the crowd also spoke up.

“We need to be careful.”

“I’ve also noticed recently that there are more and more people discussing this scarecrow.”

“There must be a reason for the abnormality. Everyone just needs to be careful these days.”

The people around said that it was fine. If the scarecrow dared to come, they could just light it with a lighter.

It was just a scarecrow. Why would they be afraid of it?

Then, the group of people began to joke.

Not long after, one of them said, “hey hey, someone’s coming, someone’s coming. Let’s hide first.”

The group of people looked over and saw a figure walking over.

They immediately bent down and found a place to hide.

“He’s dressed so well. He looks like a fat sheep!”

“Hehehe, we have money for tomorrow’s cigarettes.”

A few people were sneering.

When the person came closer, a group of people suddenly rushed out and bumped into the person.

“Aiyo, you brat, you bumped into me, you know!”

This group of people was actually trying to scam!

The person smiled and said, “so, what do you want?”

The group of people looked at each other and smiled.

“What do you think?”

“Hey, let’s talk inside.”

The group of people approached a small alley.

There were not many people in the alley. They had already gone home to rest at night.

“Okay.”

The person who came replied and followed them in.

The group of people in front did not notice that the person who was cheated by them did not show any panic on his face. Instead, a strange smile appeared on his face.

The person who had been scammed was Flanders.

In fact, when he had just been scammed, Flanders had been stunned for a moment.

In his previous life and this life, this was the first time he had met someone trying to scam him.

However, this feeling was still quite fresh.
