Avoid the Living: A Survival Guide to Forum Urban Legends

“Living people, get out of the Yin-Yang Forum!”

Jiang Muyan had barely registered an account when a user named “Ghost” started hounding him with insults.

He thought it was just a gathering of paranormal enthusiasts, until the red-dressed female ghost collecting fares in the forum's hot thread “Midnight Bus No. 3” grabbed him by the shoulder.

“Pay the fare, or become the next story's protagonist.”

He escaped using the “reverse fare-coin trick” from the forum's comments section. But when he posted a bloodstained coin in reply, the entire forum fell silent: all 999 ghost users at once.

It turned out that all those “experts” with their detailed analyses were ghosts who had lived through it themselves.

And he was the only living, beating heart on this death forum.
