But Freddy's eyes were already on him.
On that ugly face, the skin seemed to have melted into layers, mixed with some rotten dark red flesh. His eyes were yellow-green like a snake's, and they were staring at Bobby.
Bobby smiled awkwardly. "Sorry, I think I went the wrong way. Bye." He then turned around and ran off.
Freddy grinned hideously. "No, since you're here, stay and play with Uncle Freddy … well."
Bobby's figure suddenly vanished into thin air as well, and the space fell into dead silence again.
Freddy was stunned. A moment later, he roared angrily, "NOOOOOO!"
In Kris's dining room, Bobby looked at Luke in front of him with a dumbfounded expression. Luke was very naturally taking an ice bucket off Bobby's head. Luke then gave him a towel from the kitchen. "Wipe yourself, or you'll catch a cold."
Bobby accepted the towel in a daze. He wiped his head with one hand, and a pile of broken ice slid off his head.
Luke said awkwardly, "Haha, I was too anxious and poured too much."
Bobby looked at the ice bucket on the table. It was empty. Not a single bit of it had been wasted. He had a complicated feeling in his heart.
A few minutes later, Luke and Bobby returned to the living room.
Seeing them come out, Kris immediately sat up on the couch. "Luke, just now … um, who's that?"
Luke said to her with a smile, "A friend of mine. He's a professional who's best at dealing with certain things."
Bobby was dumbfounded. What major did I have? I'm an animal tamer, and that thing just now didn't look like an animal!
Kris asked suspiciously, "Was he in the nightmare just now?"
Luke's expression didn't change. "Yes, that's a necessary skill for a professional."
Looking at Kris's confused expression, he added, "A psychic. Of course, he has to be a psychic."
Kris was enlightened. She looked at Bobby in admiration. "You're so awesome to be able to enter other people's dreams."
Looking at the pretty girl's gaze, Bobby was still dumbfounded. I'm just an animal tamer! What the hell was a psychic medium!
Ignoring him, Luke turned around and looked at the other two uninvited guests. "Nancy, and you, why are you here?"
When Nancy got home, she just told Kris that her mother wouldn't let her go out.
Since Kris had told Luke about it, he hadn't included the girl in his plan.
Nancy's face was full of fear.
If Selina hadn't stopped her, she would've gone to the restaurant to look for Luke.
Now, it was finally her turn to speak. She quickly said, "That, that guy appeared again! Not long ago, he killed Jesse and entered my dream. "
Luke nodded. "First of all, who is Jesse? Secondly, that fellow didn't hurt you? "
"Jesse is the boy who talked to us in the afternoon. He is also our classmate." Nancy shook her head. "When I was taking a shower, I set an alarm in advance and woke up in time."
Luke inwardly shook his head.
Judging from his probing, Freddy wasn't trying to kill the middle school students quickly; he seemed to be enjoying the process of toying with his prey and enjoying their fear.
So, Nancy was still alive not because she was awake, but because Freddy wasn't planning to kill her yet.
He looked at the other boy. "This is …"
The boy stretched out his hand. "Quentin Smith. Just call me Quentin."
Luke shook his hand. "Are you haunted by that nightmare as well?"
Quentin nodded with a bitter smile. "Yes."
Looking at his face, Luke asked, "How long has it been since you last slept?"
Quentin's expression became even more bitter. "I don't know. Maybe two days, maybe three."
Luke asked, "Why are you here to see Kris?"
Just now, it was the sudden arrival of these two that woke Kris up from her slumber.
Selina, who was on guard, stopped them at the door and told them not to disturb Kris's sleep.
Quentin shuddered when he heard the word "sleep," and hurriedly ran to the window and banged on it.
Luke didn't feel bad about their behavior.
They had good intentions, and they hadn't done anything bad. On the contrary, they had chosen the perfect time to let Luke and Kris out of the dream.
The moment Luke woke up, he picked up the bucket of ice and rushed to the dining room. Then … he poured the bucket of ice and water on Bobby's head.
Bobby instantly woke up as well.
Luke had a rough idea as to why the PR manager had entered that nightmare for no apparent reason.
After receiving Luke's call, Bobby had driven for more than six hours straight, and only arrived here late at night.
The supervisor of the mine had been busy with the new mining company during the day, and was naturally exhausted when he rushed over.
If that was all, Bobby might not have entered the nightmare.
But Luke had beaten Bobby again in order to learn his abilities, so it was inevitable that Bobby would run into some bad luck.
Also, Bobby had Mental Communication, and was probably one of those people who were "sensitive" to mental energy.
Under the combined effect of these three factors, he inexplicably entered a nightmare.
Thankfully, Bobby's bad luck wasn't so bad that Luke pulled him out of the nightmare, and Freddy didn't kill him in the nightmare.
Luke was a little embarrassed about that.
He had almost screwed Bobby over again. He only hoped that Bobby wouldn't be traumatized by Freddy.
But there was nothing Luke could do.
Daddy System clearly didn't know the first thing about network technology.
Luke had tried remote gambling and online blackjack, but he couldn't learn Bobby's abilities, and could only ask Bobby to come over.
Bobby, on the other hand, had only lost twice before he entered Freddy's nightmare. Luke felt that this guy was definitely born with bad luck.
It was no wonder that even though this guy had a good job, he still ended up as a homeless man who didn't even have clothes to wear.
If luck could be quantified, Bobby's would be either zero or negative one.
On the other side, Nancy and Quentin looked at each other when they heard Luke's question. It was Quentin who said, "Nancy thinks that her mother is hiding something from her about this nightmare and that person."
Luke nodded. "So …"
"So we want to find out the truth. That's the only way we can resolve this," said Quentin.
Pondering for a moment, Luke shook his head. "There's no need to go through all that trouble. I might know what he's up to."
"What does he want?" Kris, Nancy and Quentin asked almost at the same time.
Luke flipped through the notebook on the table and found the results of his research in the afternoon. He turned the screen to the three of them. "Have you seen this place before?"
The three of them looked at the laptop screen. On it was an old photo. It was a kindergarten with a big sign on the roof — Badham.
School (Badham Kindergarten).
