Pick up the pen and smell, the raindrops ripple outside the window, the pen sighs, the four walls are cold and unbearable, pick the green candle, there is you in the candle, and the heart is overflowing.

July 19, 2019 9:03 AM

Zhang Ze, who had been asleep for two days, finally woke up, and he looked at the unfamiliar environment around him with sleepy eyes.

"You're awake."

Zhang Ze looked at Wanli excitedly, and almost fell off the bed.

"Be careful, there are still injuries on your body."

"How are you?"

"I'm fine, Mo Zhu brought me here."

"What about others?"

"He's gone. He said to tell you to wait for him and not forget the agreement between the two of you. What's the agreement between the two of you? ”

"It's nothing, it's just boring."

After Mo Zhu left, he hid in Zhonghai City, because the person who assassinated Zhang Ze that night was the special task force of Group K, and they would only be dispatched when the killer mission failed, which meant that they were killers who specialized in eliminating killers. Now that he and Zhang Ze must be a thorn in Long Feng's side, instead of being with them, it is better to act on their own in order to monitor the movements of the special operations team.

Zhang Ze took Wanli back to Fang Fan's house.

"Ah, Wanli."

Yuehan gave Wanli a big hug when she saw it, Wanli was taken aback by Yuehan's enthusiasm and almost made a move, but fortunately she was stopped by Zhang Ze in time.

"This is Yuehan, she took care of you when you were unconscious."

"Wanli, Wanli. How did you wake up? ”

"I don't know the specifics. It is to feel that there is an impulsive power surging back and forth in the body, and then I wake up. ”

Zhang Ze thought that it was Aunt Mei's poison that stimulated Wanli's awakening, no matter what, Wanli's safety was the most important thing.

"What about Fang Fan?"

"He went to investigate the case, and I don't know when he will come back."

Zhang Ze dialed Fang Fan's phone.

"Where are you?"

"Don't tell anyone, come and find me at the Beihai Apartment."

Zhang Ze was confused, but he had to go to him first.

July 19, 2019 United States

Zhuo Man has been in the United States for some time and now lives at his uncle Liu Yi's house. At that time, Liu Yi ran a restaurant in Zhonghai City, although the scale was not large, food and clothing were not a problem. The life of a family of four is uneventful and stable.

One snowy night, Liu Yi was about to close the store to rest, when suddenly a man holding a little girl blocked the door, and the man said weakly.

"Please, give the child some hot water."

Seeing this, Liu Yi hurriedly let the father and daughter into the house, and Liu Yi's wife looked at the baby girl in swaddling clothes and said distressedly.

"This kid is suffering."

Immediately brewed a cup of milk powder, and the baby girl's face gradually improved. The father thanked Liu Yi's wife for his kindness, and when he was about to leave, Liu Yi called out to him with a bowl of egg noodles.

"Don't go, such a heavy snow, even if you can stand it, the child can't stand it. Let's stay tonight and eat some noodles to warm up. ”

My father's nose was sore, and two lines of hot tears slid down his cheeks, leaving two deep marks on his dirty face, which were also deeply rooted in my father's heart. The next day, Liu Yi watched his father hold the baby girl and prepare to leave.

"Why don't you stay with me and help. The salary is not much, but there is a hot meal. ”

Father readily agreed.

"What's your name?"

"Zhuo Wanfei."

Since that day, Zhuo Wanfei has worked very hard, and finally encountered an opportunity to fly Huang Tengda, and Zhuo Wanfei, who is flying Huang Tengda, has not forgotten the kindness of Liu Yi's family. Unfortunately, one day Liu Yi's restaurant suddenly caught fire, Liu Yi went in and out a few times for his own belongings for many years, the fire became more and more fierce, and the firefighters who rushed to stop him in time, which can be regarded as not having more serious consequences. After Zhuo Wanfei knew Liu Yi's predicament, he paid for Liu Yi's family to settle in the United States, and Zhuo Wanfei opened a Chinese restaurant for Liu Yi in the United States. And it continues to appear in the American food magazine weekly, and even those Michelin-starred chefs praise Liu Yi's cooking skills.

This change in the Zhuo family made Liu Yi very sad, and he immediately took Zhuo Man to his side after learning the news.

"Xiao Man, what are you doing?"

Zhuo Man was looking at Zhang Ze's photo.

"Uncle, I didn't do anything."

"Is this your boyfriend?"

"How so."

Dolman smiled.

"I watched you grow up, and I have treated you as my own daughter for so many years. Can you hide it from me? ”

"But he already has a girlfriend."

"After Ye Guozhong, I hope you can be cautious when choosing feelings again, uncle doesn't want to see you hurt again."

"I see, uncle. I have something to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I want to go back home."

"What are you going back for?"

"I'll tell you when I'm ready."

"You little clever ghost."

July 19, 2019 19:00 p.m

When Zhang Ze arrived at Beihai Apartment, Fang Fan was at a loss.

"What's the situation?"

"The client asked me to come to the 16th floor of this apartment to help him get a photo album."

"Then go get it."

"I want to, too, but there are 15 floors here, and there is no 16th floor at all."

"No, I've been dealing with people all this time, don't scare me."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's find it quickly."

Zhang Ze went door to door to inquire about the news on the 16th floor of Beihai Apartment, no one responded to each family, Zhang Ze knocked on the next house in disappointment, the squeaky sound had a chill that penetrated into the crack in his heart, and the door opened in response. A woman's face peeked out from behind the door.

"Is there anything wrong with you?"

"Where is the 16th floor?"

The woman's expression became extremely flustered.

"No, no, I don't know what the 16th floor is."

After finishing speaking, the woman closed the door hard, and Zhang Ze hurriedly dodged back. An inexplicable fear hit him, Zhang Ze was a little scared, and decided to go back to find Fang Fan, but when he went back, he found that Fang Fan was gone.

Fang Fan stayed where he was, thinking about how to find the 16th floor. Suddenly, he felt a chill behind him, and he looked back to see that there was nothing. The lights in the corridor slowly dimmed, and Fang Fan began to look for Zhang Ze.

"Zhang Ze, Zhang Ze. Where are you? ”

July 19, 2019 21:00 p.m

The time was getting later and later, and Zhang Ze, who couldn't find Fang Fan, decided to go outside the apartment to take a closer look, he thought to himself that maybe Fang Fan had found the wrong apartment building. Zhang Ze walked out of the apartment and looked up, the Beihai Apartment, which was originally the entire building, was now only the lonely unit where he and Fang Fan were located, and every household was pitch black. Zhang Ze looked at the other units that had evaporated out of thin air, and couldn't help but feel a chill down his back, he immediately ran back, and decided to pull Fang Fan to run quickly, this place is not clean.

No matter how Fang Fan shouted, he couldn't find Zhang Ze. He returned to the 15th floor and walked to the corridor window to breathe, and suddenly found that the opposite floor, which he had to look up, could now look at level. This discovery surprised Fang Fan, if it wasn't that he had grown taller in an instant, it was that this apartment had grown taller.

July 19, 2019 23:00 p.m

Zhang Ze's mouth was already dry at this time, he felt that the strength in his body was disappearing little by little, and finally Zhang Ze had to sit in the corridor on the first floor and wait for Fang Fan to come to him.

Fang Fan figured everything out, the 16th floor is not necessarily on the top, the last floor below can also be called the 16th floor. But the situation in front of him stumped Fang Fan, there were no stairs further down the first floor, only a black hole. Fang Fan gritted his teeth and jumped down, not as high as he imagined, after landing on the ground, Fang Fan saw that there were walls all around, and there was only one door in front of him. Fang Fan walked straight over, this was an old-fashioned wooden door, the cat's eye on the door had no lenses, Fang Fan followed the cat's eye and looked in, and it was blood-red inside.

Fang Fan turned the doorknob and gently pushed the door in, and there was no blood red inside that he had just seen, but ordinary furniture and household appliances. Fang Fan quickly found the album that the client wanted, he opened the album and found that it was full of photos of doors, and he seemed to have seen these doors somewhere, Fang Fan thought about it carefully, and finally he remembered, these doors on the photos were the doors of the residents on each floor of the apartment, but why did he take these photos?

Fang Fan continued to flip back, almost every page of the photo was about the same, and suddenly he saw a photo, in the photo, Zhang Ze was flashed by the flash and couldn't open his eyes, and if he looked closely, he could see himself behind Zhang Ze. The next photo made Fang Fan's whole body tremble, the furniture in the photo was the furniture in front of him, and the person in the photo was his back at this time.

Fang Fan turned his head suddenly, and there was nothing behind him. Fang Fan grabbed the photo album in his hand and rushed out of the door. When Fang Fan ran to the door of the apartment, he saw Zhang Ze lying on the ground panting.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I was so tired, I ran back and forth several times."

"What are you doing?"

"Looking for you. I'll ask about the 16th floor of the house, and when I go back to you, you'll be gone. ”

"I've been on the 15th floor, just below the first floor."

"Hell yes. Did you get the album? ”

"Got it, let's go. This place is very evil. ”

After Fang Fan and Zhang Ze left the Beihai Apartment, it became a whole building again, and every house was brightly lit and lively.

Fang Fan and Zhang Ze returned home immediately after leaving the Beihai apartment. Fang Fan put the photo album on the dining table, and Yuehan was humming a song in the bedroom to arrange her clothes. Fang Fan was a little strange, Yue Han never liked to hum songs, because she was incomplete, and once again because of this laughing at her, Yue Han was angry with Fang Fan for a long time.

"Yuehan, Yuehan."

Fang Fan gently called Yue Han, but Yue Han did not respond, still bowing his head to sort out his clothes. At this time, Zhang Ze put his hand on Fang Fan's shoulder.

"What's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing. It's just a little weird. ”

"What's weird?"

"Yuehan never likes to sing or hum because she doesn't have all five notes. But today not only hummed but also not out of tune. ”

"You're too nervous, aren't you?"

Yuehan heard the conversation between the two and looked back at the two of them sharply. Fang Fan suddenly found that Yue Han's eyes were not as gentle as before, but there was an indescribable gloom, but this feeling was fleeting, and it immediately returned to the same as before.

"You're back, I've been waiting for you for a long time, come and drink soup."

Zhang Ze carefully tugged the corner of the clothes below.

"See?"

"See."

"Am I nervous?"

"Let's see."

Coming to the dining table and sitting down, Zhang Ze looked at Yuehan's busy back in the kitchen and asked in a low voice.

"Yuehan, where's Wanli?"

Yuehan walked to the table with the soup, and on dog days, Yuehan was wearing a pair of thick rubber gloves on his hands.

"Drink soup."

She ignored Zhang Ze's words completely, picked up the two bowls in front of her, and the blue and white porcelain soup spoon was slowly stirring in the soup basin.

Yue Han smiled and handed the soup to the two, and Fang Fan and Zhang Ze, who looked at each other, took the soup in Yue Han's hand.

"This is a broth made especially for you, you have to drink it all."

With that, Yuehan turned around and went into the kitchen. The aroma of the broth is mouth-watering and makes you forget all your worries and concerns. Zhang Ze drank spoonful by spoonful, feeling that the soup in front of him was like a rare treasure, and he was reluctant to drink it all. Fang Fan looked at the soup in the bowl alertly, and suddenly the soup changed from milky white to brown, and then from brown to crimson like rust, and then emitted a foul smell.

Zhang Ze had already finished drinking one bowl, and was about to serve the second bowl when Fang Fan hurriedly stopped him.

"Don't move, there's something weird about this soup."

Zhang Ze shook off Fang Fan's hand and insisted on serving another bowl from the basin, this time he drank it all, his expression was very enjoyable. In the end, the anxious Zhang Ze picked up the soup basin and drank it, Fang Fan looked at Zhang Ze's increasingly bulging belly, like a balloon about to burst, Zhang Ze put down the soup basin and sat down on the chair, his head drooping down like a frosted eggplant, and there were still a few strands of hair hanging from the corners of his mouth.

Fang Fan was startled and walked quickly to the kitchen, at this time Yuehan took off his gloves and looked at him intently.

"Is it good?"

"Ahh

Fang Fan shouted in horror, only half of the flesh and hair on Yuehan's head in front of him remained, and the other half was a bloodshot white bone. Fang Fan looked at Yue Han's hands again, where were still their hands, shriveled like ten branches.

"Husband, what's wrong with you? I'll ask you. This soup... Is it delicious? ”

Yue Han let out an eerie laugh, she took a step further, and Fang Fan took a step back. The shriveled hands stretched out to Fang Fan, who had no way to retreat, and closed his eyes tightly. The air around him seemed to have been injected with tons of liquid nitrogen, condensed into a large ice cellar, he felt those shriveled fingers running across his face, a burst of breath swept across his neck, and suddenly Yue Han bit the artery in Fang Fan's neck. Fang Fan shouted, the power in his body erupted, and he suddenly opened his eyes, but the Yuehan in front of him had disappeared, and what was even more bizarre was that he was still in the corridor on the first floor of the Beihai apartment at this time. Fang Fan suppressed the beast in his body to prevent himself from becoming violent, he looked around carefully, and there was an unconscious Zhang Ze lying beside him, and he still had the photo album in his hand.

Fang Fan's mind was still thinking about Yuehan's terrifying appearance just now, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time. Suddenly, Fang Fan felt that someone was tugging at his trouser legs, he looked down and saw that it was Zhang Ze who woke up, Fang Fan immediately squatted down, and Zhang Ze was raising his arm vigorously and pointing behind Fang Fan.

"You... You... Back..."

Fang Fan looked back and found nothing. He looked back at Zhang Ze again, and suddenly saw a woman with short hair from his dim eyes, the bangs on her forehead covering her eyes, but she couldn't block the red light from her eyes under the bangs.

Fang Fan picked up Zhang Ze and immediately ran towards the depths of the corridor, he could feel that something was chasing them behind him, and the doors of each household were open and closed at this time, closing and opening, making a clanging sound, as if he was cheering for the thing behind him.

Light, there is light ahead. A glass window, Fang Fan picked up Zhang Ze and jumped over, smashed the glass window and fell heavily to the ground. Fang Fan looked at the surrounding scene as when he came, he was a little more relieved, he picked up Zhang Ze and hurried to his car, and a terrible cry came from the Beihai apartment.

Fang Fan clenched the steering wheel, silently thinking in his heart that this time was not an illusion, this time it was not an illusion. At this time, the big bell of the square struck the bell at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and the bell echoed in every corner of Zhonghai City. Fang Fan gradually felt the power in his body and quietly poked his head outward, and he took several deep breaths in a row to try to calm himself down quickly.

Suddenly rushed out of a woman from the side of the road, Fang Fan hurriedly stepped on the brakes, hit the steering wheel on the left, and the car barely avoided the woman.

"You don't want to die?"

"Big brother, you save me, someone is chasing me behind."

"Chasing you?"

Fang Fan looked at the pitch-black cornfield behind the woman suspiciously. Suddenly, the voice of a man shouting came from the cornfield.

"Chase after her, don't let her run."

"Get in the car."

In a hurry, Fang Fan had no choice but to let the woman get into the car first, and then Fang Fan immediately started the car and drove into the distance. Fang Fan looked at the trembling woman from the rearview mirror.

"Don't be afraid, they won't be able to catch up."

"Thanks... Thank you. ”

"Why are they chasing you?"

"Because... Because I stole something as important as them. ”

"What's that?"

"A photo album."

Suddenly the woman's face was hideous, her eyes were blood-red, and her head shook so rapidly that she could not see her face clearly. Fang Fan was shocked, hurriedly stepped on the brakes, and after a tire howl, the car stopped in a hurry. When Fang Fan looked in the rearview mirror, the woman in the back seat disappeared.

Fang Fan got out of the car and sat on the side of the road, panting heavily, but the street lamp did not warm his trembling figure. With a shaky hand, he pulled a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it carefully, and a puff of smoke dissipated under the dim streetlamp, and he calmed down a little.

Fang Fan thought back to everything that had happened so far, the 16th floor was below the 1st floor, and there were no residents there, only the one at the end of the corridor. He remembered the peephole on the door without a lens, which he had seen from the inside that was blood-red, but when he opened the door, everything was normal. He suddenly remembered that the female ghost's eyes were also red, could it be... Could it be that when I looked inside from the cat's eye, the female ghost was also looking out from the cat's eye? Fang Fan shuddered, he took another deep puff of cigarette, now he had to stabilize himself, if the madness would not help the current situation at all.

Obviously, the woman in the car just now was the female ghost of Beihai Apartment. Fang Fan remembered the cornfield when the woman got into the car just now, but when he came, he didn't find any cornfield at all. Fang Fan hurriedly returned to the car and started the car, Zhang Ze was still unconscious. Fang Fan looked back at the back seat, there was nothing on the back seat except for the photo album.

July 19, 2019 2:00 AM

Fang Fan took Zhang Ze home, and Yuehan and Wanli were anxiously waiting for them. Wanli saw the unconscious Zhang Ze and immediately walked over.

"What's wrong with him?"

"Too weak and unconscious."

Wanli took care of Zhang Ze on the side. Yue Han grabbed Fang Fan's arm, Fang Fan recalled the hallucination just now, he was still jealous, he subconsciously shook off Yue Han's hand.

"What's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable? ”

"Oh... Oh... It's nothing. ”

Fang Fan looked at Yue Han, who was normal, and her concerned eyes before he was sure that everything in front of him was not an illusion.

July 20, 2019 8:23 AM

After waking up, Fang Fan's whole body ached, and he heard Zhang Ze and Wanli chatting next door, and he knocked lightly on the door.

"Are you alright?"

"It's much better, yesterday somehow, it was like collapse."

"Do you remember what happened last night?"

"Last night we split up to look for the 16th floor, I knocked on a door to ask about the 16th floor, and the woman inside panicked and said she didn't know, and then hurriedly closed the door."

"Woman? Do you remember what the woman looked like? ”

"Skinny, sunken eye sockets."

"And do you remember that woman?"

"Which one?"

"It's the woman you saw behind me."

Zhang Ze recalled, his expression becoming more and more ugly.

"I remembered. The woman behind you and the woman who opened the door for me are the same person. ”

Fang Fan touched the stubble on his chin, who is this woman? What is her relationship with this album? I am afraid that only the client can give us a satisfactory answer to all this.
