When the door was opened, the increasingly pungent musty smell desperately drilled into the nostrils of Gao Qingzhu and Qiu Hong.

The two of them covered their mouths and noses with bad faces, and looked at the whole room in disgust.

Even though Gao Qingzhu wanted to try the taste of being dominated by fear, the taste was really unbearable for her.

"Why hasn't this smell dissipated yet, the two of us just came back at noon, and we have cleaned it once, and the windows are open, why is this smell not faint but stronger?" Qiu Hong scanned the entire rental house.

The living room and kitchen can be seen at a glance, but where is the disgusting smell coming from?

It sticks to the house like glue, and no matter how much you wipe it, it won't help.

Sitting back at the dining table, Qiu Hong dialed Xu Hao's phone.

Xu Hao said that he would come back in a while, and let her eat some by herself if she was hungry.

Gao Qingzhu had no choice but to wait obediently for the night to come, but it was torture to let her stay in such a filthy and pungent room all night.

……

A black cat came out of the darkness, accompanied by its sharp meow, quickly drilled from one end to the other, its bright eyes were dragged into two afterimages in the rapid movement, like a ghost fire in the night.

Gao Qingzhu calmly watched this strange scene, and she closed the curtains to block the last trace of street lights that could penetrate outside the rental house.

There were no lights on in the room, only her amber eyes glowing mysteriously.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening, but Xu Hao hadn't come back yet.

Looking at Qiu Hong, who was lying on the bed and had fallen asleep, Gao Qingzhu's eyebrows and eyes frowned slightly, and he always felt a bad premonition.

This Xu Hao, it can't be an accident, right?

I heard Qiu Hong say that Xu Hao is a punctual and self-disciplined person, who usually exercises, has a regular life and rest, has a good character, and has a good personality, and can hardly find any faults.

According to his character, if he is delayed by something, he will definitely call Qiu Hong in advance, but it is so late now, and he is ready to go to bed according to his usual habits.

At this time, there was a "squeak", and the door of the rental house was opened.

Presumably Xu Hao is back.

Suddenly such a sound came from the silent room, which seemed unusually piercing.

Suddenly there was a sound of light footsteps outside the bedroom, but it suddenly stopped when it didn't take a few steps, and it seemed that it was still some distance from the bedroom.

Seeing that there is still no light under the crack of the door, this black light is blinding, is he going to sleep directly in the dark?

Gao Qingzhu was really curious, and pushed open the door a crack, but the sofa was empty, and Xu Hao was nowhere to be seen.

The window on the wall, the curtain was opened a finger's width, and the moonlight shone in through the light veil, casting a layer of light blue fluorescence in the originally dark living room. Gao Qingzhu discovered for the first time that this old rental house was like a horror plot in a novel, full of mysteries, but it still failed to scare her.

At this moment, the living room was dead silent, as if no one was there, but just now I clearly heard the sound of Xu Hao opening the door and coming in.

didn't care so much, Gao Qingzhu pushed open the bedroom door, the living room was too dark, except for the moonlight spilling in from the window, the other furniture was like a black fog, and he couldn't see it clearly.

In a corner not far from the bedroom door, Xu Hao's figure appeared there.

He hunched his back, holding a one-meter-long stick on the floor in one hand, and holding the wall with the other, his left foot lifted, his toes lightly touching the ground, and his right foot standing but bent on his knee.

A man of 1.8 meters tall, standing like an old man over eighty years old, is really weird.

"Xu Hao?" Gao Qingzhu called him tentatively.

When Xu Hao heard this, his body trembled slightly, and his already hunched back seemed more curved when he slowly turned around, and that kind of arc seemed to be beyond what ordinary people could do.

Gao Qingzhu realized that he was no longer Xu Hao.

The sound of light footsteps sounded again, and "he" walked towards the bedroom.

The faint moonlight hit "his" face, and the complexion that should have been healthy looked sickly pale in such an atmosphere.

Turning around quickly, Gao Qingzhu calmly closed the door and locked it.

She wasn't afraid of this, but Xu Hao didn't look right, if he really got nervous and did something crazy, then how could she deal with him as a woman? Gao Qingzhu was reluctant to take this risk.

Qiu Hong is still asleep in bed, if she wakes up, how can she accept a boyfriend who seems to be possessed by a ghost?

She must have been terrified.

So for now, I had to lock the door and observe first.

Maybe he's just sleepwalking, as long as he's careful not to do anything to hurt himself and Qiu Hong, then let him go.

In a sense, Gao Qingzhu, who has lost his fear, is really big-hearted.

Sighing, she sat back on the bed lightly, looking a little helpless.

Looks like I can't sleep well today.

Looking at the closed door, he was distracted, and it was not until the deafening knock on the door that Gao Qingzhu's thoughts were pulled back, and Qiu Hong was also woken up at this time, hiding in the quilt in horror and trembling.

Her trembling voice came out muffled in the quilt, with a crying tone, Gao Qingzhu couldn't hear what she was saying, so he could only try to hug and comfort her.

"Xu Hao, Xu Hao must have been possessed by a ghost......" finally heard what Qiu Hong said, but if she said this to others, I was afraid that she would be treated as a madman.

Gao Qingzhu patted her on the back lightly, telling her not to worry, saying that it would protect her.

can be a woman, and she doesn't know how to defend herself, how to deal with Xu Hao?

It would be nice if Xu Nanxing was by his side at this time.

Hehe, Gao Qingzhu sneered and laughed at himself, I don't know if it's because he has been by his side so often recently, he thinks of him from time to time.

He shook his head, trying to forget about him, but the knock on the door continued.

Knock Knock Knock –

It seems to be knocking harder than before.

As he was thinking about what to do next, the knock on the door suddenly stopped, apparently preparing to open the door.

The handle on the door was shaking stiffly, and Gao Qingzhu could imagine how much strength the people outside the door were constantly twisting, but the door had been locked by Gao Qingzhu, and Xu Hao couldn't open it without a key.

After a not-so-long noise, there was a long dead silence.

Gao Qingzhu got out of bed, leaned against the bedroom door and listened carefully to the movement outside, and a slightly heavy and rapid breathing sound came through the door panel, which was dull and dull.

This was followed by the sound of something like a wooden stick banging on the door.

This reminded Gao Qingzhu of the stick he was holding in his hand when he saw Xu Hao just now, thinking it was a crutch or something, but where did he find the stick?

There was another loud knock on the door—

The door was pounding incessantly, and the white plank inside the door frame kept vibrating, as if it was about to knock it away.

The sound of the sticks knocking on the door continued, and the frequency gradually increased as it increased.

Gao Qingzhu frowned, if Xu Hao knocked on it like this, I am afraid that this door will be broken.

For the sake of her and Qiu Hong's safety, she still has to learn to fight back, but what can she protect herself at the moment?

Looking around the small bedroom, she was caught by a few law books on the desk, which were her college textbooks, almost every one of them being extraordinarily thick. Thinking of having to carry a heavy bag to class every time the four classes were full on Monday, Gao Qingzhu was extremely reluctant.

She picked up one of the law books and held it in both hands.

When he walked back to the door, the loud knocking outside the door suddenly stopped.

The room itself was cold enough, after the noisy knocking on the door disappeared, Gao Qingzhu couldn't help but shiver, she wore two fairly thick clothes, but I don't know where a yin wind always blows, penetrating her body and piercing into her bones.

In the musty room, she could faintly smell the smell of sour rot, a smell that always reminded her of a corpse.

Now Xu Hao is at the door.

After letting Qiu Hong hide, Gao Qingzhu's eyes were calm, and his hand stayed on the doorknob for a long time, twisting and opening the door.

The door opened a crack, and Xu Hao was nowhere to be seen.

But by the third time, Xu Hao's shoulders were exposed, he was wearing a black and white baseball uniform, his eyes were down, and he was holding the earth-colored wooden stick in his hand, this time the distance was very close, Gao Qingzhu saw clearly, it was a crutch that was some years old.

When she opened the door halfway, half of Xu Hao's face was clearly visible, his eyes were blank, staring vacantly ahead, his pale face was like a terminally ill patient, without the spirit of the past.

Suddenly, the dark eyeballs in Xu Hao's eyes turned downward, staring straight at the fearless woman in front of him, his original lacklustre aura was gone, and it turned into a sharp edge.

One second, two seconds, three seconds......

In front of the half-open door, Gao Qingzhu completely left the sense of danger behind, and at this time, an extremely delicate situation formed inside and outside the door.

The two just stared at each other like this, and I don't know how long it took for Gao Qingzhu to lift the heavy law book, and with a painful "bang" sound, Xu Hao's face was slapped by her, and he staggered backwards and fainted instantly.

Qiu Hong, who heard the sound, was stunned by the scene in front of her, she didn't think that Gao Qingzhu would knock Xu Hao unconscious.

On the one hand, he was surprised by Gao Qingzhu's decisive move, and on the other hand, he was worried about whether Xu Hao was okay.

"What's wrong with Xu Hao? You okay? Qiu Hong pulled Gao Qingzhu and walked in the direction of Xu Hao.

Squatted down and looked at it, except for his face being reddened, there seemed to be no other injuries, his breathing was even, more like he was asleep than fainting, but he was called for a while, but he still didn't wake up.

"What should I do, Qingzhu, Xu Hao, will he be fine, or we should send him to the hospital." Qiu Hong paced, she was about to cry in a hurry, and Gao Qingzhu could see the tears rolling in her eyes.

Knowing that his hand was a bit heavy, Gao Qingzhu also agreed to send him to the hospital.

I couldn't delay any longer, I took out my mobile phone and was about to call an ambulance, but at this moment I heard a familiar voice: "Ah, meet again." ”

Coquettish and glamorous.

These are the two adjectives that suddenly popped out of Gao Qingzhu's mind after hearing the voice.

She remembered, but she couldn't remember when or where she had heard it, but she remembered, she must have heard it.

Turning around, Qiu Hongzheng covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyebrows and eyes revealed a thick charm, she seemed to have changed into a different person, staring straight at Gao Qingzhu with her eyes.

"What if I won't call an ambulance?" There was a hint of menace in her tone, but there was always a smile on her face.
