With a key in the shape of a dagger in hand, Summer Night stood in front of the iron door of the bedroom closest to the security door and tried to insert the key into the lock hole.

No, it doesn't work.

Then she tried a second door, but it still didn't work.

Looking at the shape of this key, it doesn't match the door lock of the bathroom at all, so there is only one possibility left.

As if to cheer herself up, she clenched her fist and shook it in front of her eyes, then inserted the key into the lock hole and twisted it to the right.

"Click!"

There was a metal crash inside the cylinder, and the heavy iron door trembled slightly, then moved back a little.

Seeing that the door had been opened, Xia Ye did not pull out the key, but just pushed open the iron door and walked into the dark bedroom.

When I walked into the bedroom, I immediately felt that the air around me had become a little heavy. The atmosphere in the room was indescribably strange, but there was nothing strange about it.

Is it a delusion?

I pressed the light switch next to the door, but the overhead light was not on, and it seemed that the light should be broken. However, the incandescent light from the kitchen facing the room kept it from being dark.

Through the light of the kitchen, the girl looked at the bedroom:

-- On the left-hand wall. Sure enough, leaning against a dark wardrobe about two meters high, I don't know what is inside. On the right is an old double bed with a layer of dust on the sheets.

Behind the double bed is a glass table with nothing on it.

Summer night set her eyes on the windowsill - the notes said "I forgot important things on the windowsill of my bedroom", I should have let myself go to the windowsill to get them, right?

"Hmmm......"

The girl hurried to the windowsill, and when she walked to the wardrobe, she couldn't help but stop:

The bedroom window is equipped with an anti-theft net, and if there is someone hiding in the closet, when you walk to the windowsill, the person hiding in the closet can completely block the retreat by rushing out and standing in front of the door.

Holding her breath and standing motionless, she didn't hear anything strange, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Still, this wardrobe is worrying:

If there's nothing in it, why add the phrase "don't open the closet" in the note? Is it a trick to be scary? Or is there really something extremely scary hidden in the closet?

――After thinking about it, it would be better to determine what is inside......

As he stretched out his trembling hand to the closet, the warning in the diary began to swirl in his head, making his mind uneasy:

"Never open the closet, never open the closet......"

Summer Night felt that the strange italics seemed to be floating in front of her eyes: "Don't open the wardrobe, otherwise you will ......"

- "What is omitted after 'otherwise'?" What's in the closet? What am I afraid of? ”

"Die!"

The girl screamed and reached out to grab the doorknob of the wardrobe.

Just as she was about to pull open the closet directly, she felt the handle she was holding suddenly tremble, and she retracted her hand like an electric shock, and leaned on the old bed behind her in fright.

Is it a delusion? Or is there really something hiding inside the cupboard?

As soon as she stood up, she heard a strange "crunch" sound coming from the cabinet, as if something was shaking inside.

I rushed to the window sill of the bedroom, and through the moonlight that was divided into many pieces by the anti-theft net outside the window, I could see a small black box on the window sill, like a small jewelry box.

The cabinet behind him was still rattling, louder and louder, and whether it was a person or something else hiding inside, he should be coming out soon.

Summer Night grabbed the small box on the windowsill and rushed out of the bedroom almost crawling. Lock the door heavily, unplug the key stuck in the door, lean against the door and gasp for air.

Still, will that way you be able to lock that guy in the house?

She wasn't sure that the door, like the security door in the living room, couldn't be opened from the inside.

Leaning against the door and listening, she noticed that after she left the bedroom, the closet stopped making sound.

Could it be that the haunting thing in the bedroom is a ghost?

This extremely strange house has already made people like Xia Ye who don't believe in ghosts and gods start to worry.

The girl returned to the only living room where she could feel a little more at ease, sat down on the sofa, and opened the small box she had taken out of the dangerous bedroom, and what contained it was not the imaginary key, but a crumpled note, which was written in a cute round font:

"Only at night, can I open my candy box~"

At night, do you say......

Summer Night walked to the light switch in the living room, turned off the light, and suddenly darkened in front of him, but he didn't find anything unusual.

It doesn't seem dark enough.

She turned off the kitchen lights, and the living room was immediately plunged into complete darkness. Then, she noticed that the head of the bed in the corner of the wall lit up with an inconspicuous fluorescent.

"What's that?"

Walking briskly to the head of the bed, I lifted the pillow painted with fluorescent markings, only to hear a "ding" sound, and a key fell out from under the pillow and fell to the floor.

After fumbling for a while, he grabbed the key on the ground and turned on the light in the living room on a summer night. Look at the key in your hand.

――Just by looking at the shape, you can see that this key must have been used to open the bathroom door. And after using it, she immediately confirmed her inference.

With a "squeak", the wooden door of the bathroom slowly opened back, and she walked into the room and turned on the light, only to see that there was no toilet or sink inside, only a dark brown wooden table with an old wooden box on it, like some kind of lost treasure.

Looking at the big red word "CANDY-BOX" on the box, Xia Ye couldn't help but mutter: "Is this the candy box?" ”

Contrary to the fancy box of imagination, this tattered "candy box" is really disappointing, but just when I tried to open it on a summer night, I ran into trouble.

The box was locked tightly and completely unopenable, and on the front was inlaid a metal cipher disc with nine numbers neatly arranged from one to nine.

"It's another trick......" Summer Night scratched her hair irritably.

In the strange secret room, it was more difficult than usual to solve the puzzle, and when I opened the notebook, there was no information about the password written in the back, but something else.

Not to mention unlocking, now she doesn't even know how many people have this password.

"What should I do? That's right......"

Summer Night suddenly remembered the words on the note from before:

"You can only open the candy box at night."

Could it be ......

She turned around and closed the bathroom door, then turned off the light and looked at the password plate of the candy box, and sure enough, she saw a faint fluorescence on the three numbers on it:

2、5、7。

Turning on the light, she first typed in the number "257" and the box did not respond.

Then 275, still unresponsive.

I tried all the possible combinations one by one, until when I pressed 752, the box finally made a "click" sound.

Seeing that the combination lock had been opened, Xia Ye took a deep breath, grabbed both sides of the lid with both hands, and slowly opened the "candy box".

When she saw the contents of the box, she couldn't help but exclaim:

"It's ...... What......"
