Before you go
Yu Siqi, who returned to apartment 23 in the middle of the night, was not as relaxed as usual, on the contrary, after learning so many strange things, he was full of an inexplicable sense of fear about the room 303 he was in. The scene I usually see looks particularly gloomy today, not to mention that Lao Huang on duty is nowhere to be seen again. There was an unnatural sense of silence throughout the apartment building, and in the past, at least a few homes were lit up, but tonight the black light was blinding, relying entirely on the faint light from the mobile phone screen.
After a simple wash, Yu Siqi, who was tired and tired, lay down on the bed without even taking a bath. The headache that had been feeling for a long time began to spread in his head again, and he struggled to endure the pain, he pulled the quilt, closed his eyes, and fell asleep almost instantly.
To his surprise, however, he walked down the same street he had dreamed of again.
An ominous sensation rushed up his spine towards his head, and with the cool breeze blowing, he even shivered a little cold.
Covering his body tightly and walking towards the light, Yu Siqi's worst fear still happened.
The intense whirlwind shifted his body and instantly lost its balance, and there was a dead silence all around, except for the sound that no one could hear with his mouth open.
Gradually, there were some sights in the distance, some very strange sights.
An emaciated man in a white robe stood in a small room, his hands shining like skeletons from the incandescent light above his head, as if he had never seen sunlight before.
He looked down at the other man who was kneeling on the ground, and his tone was empty and lifeless: "You mean, you really don't know where she is?" ”
"Yes, I... I really don't know! The guy on the ground pleaded as he struggled with the ropes, "Please, I'm just innocent, I don't know anything." ”
"Of course, everyone says they don't know anything." The man held up the heads of the people on the ground and said, "But they always know a lot more than they think." ”
“... I... I really don't know! ”
"Then please explain this," said the man, throwing something resembling a letter to the ground, "and perhaps you will remember something." ”
Seeing the people on the ground struggling harder and remembering to pick up something, the man even sneered coldly: "Oh... How could I have forgotten that you were still tied up, I really shouldn't have been! Xiaoqin, untie him. ”
"Yes, master." At this time, an unexpected person appeared in the shadows, it was Qin Yuyao, who used to live in room 304, and her white coat and voice could not be wrong.
After untying the guy on the ground, Qin Yuyao returned to the darkness again, as if he had never appeared.
"Thanks... The man on the ground touched his wrist that had been tied and said two words gratefully.
"Don't waste each other's time," said the man, sitting on an old wicker chair, "that might be the last thing you can do in your lifetime." ”
"This letter, I... I don't know—" The man on the ground scrambled to pick up the letter and read it.
"Really?" The man suddenly got up from his chair, approached him quickly, and said coldly, "Maybe I'm too kind to you, right, the great painter Xu Youfan." I have given you so much, how have you reciprocated to me? You don't intend to tell me the truth about a small question, you make me feel very disappointed like this, and there is even an element of betrayal in it. ”
"No... I really don't have anything to say..."Although Xu Youfan's body trembled a little, his face was unexpectedly calm, and there was even a feeling of seeing death as if he was at home in movies.
"Very well, if this is your last wish, I will grant you, just like the ones you once demanded." The man suddenly grabbed Xu Youfan's neck, and the latter struggled hard, but to no avail.
Soon, the once famous painter was like a doll that had been broken, hanging his head crookedly, sticking out his tongue and dying.
After throwing Xu Youfan's body on the ground, the man looked at the letter with great displeasure, and for some reason, the letter suddenly burned under his gaze, and instantly turned into a touch of black ash.
"It's time for us to go, Xiaoqin. There's still a lot to do. The man gave the order indifferently.
"Got it, I'll go out and get ready first." Qin Yuyao didn't even look at it, and left the room directly.
When the whole room was full of men, the atmosphere suddenly changed to something different. Yu Siqi felt that the environment around him was extremely cool, and the sudden chill made him even colder than before on the street, and even exhaled mist from his mouth. But soon the chill dissipated, as if it had never been there.
The man walked out of the room slowly, but just as he was about to step out of the doorbar. He turned around slowly and looked at Yu Siqi with a see-through eye, the kind of eyes that could see through the whole body were very annoying, but he was powerless to stop it.
Then he left the room and slammed the door shut.
"Bang."
Although he didn't see the man's face clearly, the dark and terrifying eyes really startled him. It was this shock that made him scream.
That sound pierced the entire apartment 23 and woke up the fat man next door.
So much so that others pounded the wall in protest.
"Boom... Although the sound was not particularly loud, it unexpectedly brought Yu Siqi back to reality from the disturbance of the nightmare.
Touching his soaked clothes, Yu Siqi shook his head with a wry smile and sat up. His body was still trembling slightly, and his hands and feet were a little disobedient.
But fortunately, this phenomenon has happened before, so he is already familiar with the road.
Trying to take a step into the bathroom, Yu Siqi noticed that it was already dawn, no wonder he didn't turn on the lights just now.
Wait, what time is it?
If it's late, you won't be able to catch the morning bus.
Wait, I don't seem to have to go to work anymore.
But the resignation report hasn't been written yet, forget it... It's never too late to write after taking a shower.
After rinsing, Yu Siqi changed into dry clothes and made himself a cup of coffee. Sitting at the computer desk, he began to tinker with his resignation report, just as he was halfway through the book.
The phone rang.
"Hello?" Yu Siqi tapped on the keyboard, tilted his head and held his mobile phone and asked on the phone.
"How can you say resign, just resign, where is the company bad for you!" Gong Chen's voice came from the other end of the phone, and he could hear that he was a little anxious.
"It's... You listen to me explain..."Yu Siqi said embarrassedly.
"What else to explain, do you know how long I explained to Xiaofang after I learned the news?" Gong Chen said angrily: "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation." ”
"Well... Okay, it's all up to the palace lord! Yu Siqi said flatteringly.
"Go ahead, what do you want to do with me haha." Gong Chen said: "There is no need to write the resignation report, it doesn't matter if you don't come to work, we decided to give you a long vacation." ”
"It's... That's so gracious. Yu Siqi stopped what he was doing, picked up the phone with his right hand and put it to his mouth and said, "If you treat me like this, I'm about to fall in love with you, Brother Gong." ”
"Stop... Stop... I'm a family man. Gong Chen smiled and said: "Don't say it, I seem to be very casual, and although I gave you a long vacation, if you have time, you should come to the company to go around, and it's good to pretend, otherwise the financial department of the salary will have to speak." ”
"That's fine, but how did you know I was going to resign, did Father Ann say that?" Yu Siqi asked rhetorically: "Are you very familiar with him?" ”
"It's a long story, but that's the end of the matter anyway. I hung up first, and I heard Xiaofang coming downstairs. Gong Chen hung up the phone after speaking.
"This kid must have something to hide from me," Yu Siqi had such a strange feeling, although others helped him again and again, but he didn't have the slightest gratitude, "I'm really a cold-blooded guy." ”
Since you don't have to write a resignation report, it's easy to do. Save the document and turn off your computer. After packing up, I set off for the Jiang family ancestral hall.
