It is said that a certain video once circulated online—
A long-haired woman dressed in red, holding a wooden comb, was gently and lovingly brushing her long, glossy black hair in front of an oval dressing mirror hanging on the wall.
However, after a few strokes, it seemed she encountered some tangles. The comb got stuck in her hair, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get it out.
As she struggled to untangle her hair, her initially serene expression gradually twisted into one of frustration. She even began to tug at her hair forcefully—
Unexpectedly, in the next moment, with one violent pull, she ended up tearing her own head off. Bright red blood splattered across the screen, and as the scene faded into a pool of crimson, the video abruptly ended.
It was rumored that those who watched this video would see the woman in the mirror when they were alone and would be dragged to their deaths by her furious grasp...
"That's just ridiculous! How much force would it take to pull your own head off just from brushing your hair? That's absurd!" Xiao You scoffed.
"Oh, I've heard about that before. I even tried searching for that video, but all I found were user-made urban legends; I couldn't find the actual footage," Xiao Mei shrugged dismissively. "But even if there really is a video, it's probably just a homemade horror short—there's no way it's real."
Honestly speaking, it defied logic for someone to brush their hair so vigorously that they would tear their own head off.
"I heard that the original footage was taken down from regular sites because it was too horrifying. Although some users keep uploading backup copies to other sites, it takes time to find them and you have to race against the sites taking them down again or go searching on the Dark Web," Xiao Qing suddenly said with an air of mystery. "Also, regarding the urban legend verification video you mentioned, it actually stems from this very video—"
"It is said that at midnight, if you light a candle on each side of the mirror while wearing red clothing and brush your hair one hundred times in front of it, you will see the headless woman in the mirror..."
"And then what? What happens when you see her?" Xiao You asked dismissively, showing little interest.
"It is said that if you see that woman in the mirror, you should quickly protect your neck, or else she will crazily snap it, leaving you with the same fate as hers," Xiao Qing excitedly replied.
"Wow! There are actually a bunch of idle people looking for death; they must be really bored!" Xiao You couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Don't say that! After all, the purpose of verifying these Urban Legends is to find out whether those ghosts and monsters really exist!" Xiao Qing looked at her with anticipation. "So, what do you think? Are you interested?"
"What interest? The interest in looking for death on purpose?" Xiao You shot her a sidelong glance. "Sorry, I'm not."
"Tsk, you really lack a spirit of adventure!" After being doused with cold water, Xiao Qing couldn't help but push her in protest.
"If you don't do anything reckless, you won't die. Haven't you heard that?" Xiao You retorted dismissively, pushing back. "Why would anyone want to look for death on purpose? What's the point?"
"There's no real point; I just think it's fun!" Xiao Qing turned around and hugged Xiaomei's arm, shaking it playfully. "Xiaomei, I know you're the nicest; you definitely won't leave me alone like Xiao You would, right?"
"What? You want to play?" Xiaomei raised an eyebrow. "You didn't dare join me when I invited you to explore that empty house before. Are you really brave enough to play this Urban Legend verification game?"
"Hey! That empty house exploration you suggested could easily turn into trespassing on private property; that's illegal!" Xiao Qing argued confidently. "This is different; this verification game can be played at home without bothering anyone, and it's simple and less scary."
"Hah, if it's not scary, then you can just play by yourself! Why drag someone else along?" Xiao You scoffed from the side.
"Ugh! Even if it's not scary, people will still be afraid! It wouldn't hurt to let someone experience the fun of playing with Urban Legends!" Xiao Qing pouted and stomped her foot. "Come on, come on! Play with me! My family won't be home tonight!"
"What do you think?" Xiaomei adjusted her glasses and looked at Xiao You questioningly. "After all, tomorrow is a holiday?"
"Sure! But I'm only responsible for keeping you company and watching the fun, not participating. Plus, you have to treat me to breakfast tomorrow morning, how about that?" Xiao You said with a mischievous smile.
"You're taking advantage of the situation!" Xiao Qing pouted reluctantly. "Just so you know, we can only eat at that place around the corner."
"Deal!"
"Then remember to get everything ready. Let's meet at your house tonight!"
"Okay."
