It was late at night, and the roadside shops were almost all closed.

The hot and humid air during the day could not withstand the sun's exposure and had long since dissipated and returned to its usual appearance.

Tonight the sky was dark with no moon or stars, only a few dim street lamps lit lonely on the side of the road, and it seemed like a normal night.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound from the closed door of the store on the first floor of the studio.

The dim light came in through the glass door, and a vague shadow was reflected in the room from the doorway, sneaky and sneaky.

The two sleeping kittens on the sofa heard the sound, opened their eyes, looked at the door, Coke and Qixi looked at each other, with a look of doubt in their eyes, and then slowly got up and quietly jumped into the darkness, melting into the night without making a sound.

It didn't take long for the rustling sound to stop, and the locked glass door was gently opened to create a gap of only about thirty centimeters, and a figure looked left and right to look at the situation outside the door, and found that there was no one around, and then leaned sideways and quietly entered the room from the gap, and then gently closed the door, not locked.

The person who came was dressed in black clothes and black pants, and his figure was a tall and thin man, he was wearing a black peaked cap on his head, and he was wearing a mask on his face, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

It's just that his slender eyes are exposed, and a pair of eyeballs are turning rapidly.

Although there is a mask to cover it, there is still a faint smell of alcohol coming out of his mouth, and I don't know if he was drunk and bold enough to do such a petty theft, or if he had a plan.

There was no one indoors.

The man tiptoed and walked lightly, and looked around weakly for fear of being seen by anyone.

The surroundings are very dark and difficult to see clearly, only the faint street lamps shine through the glass doors, which is better than nothing.

He took out his mobile phone and didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, for fear that the light would be too strong and someone would find out. He followed the route he had memorized in advance, carefully tentatively using the light of his mobile phone screen, and slowly walked forward.

The man took a few steps and poked around with his phone.

It was dark all around, and the bookcases, sofas, and tables lay quietly.

Step by step, lightly on his feet, the sneaky man walked towards the counter,

Walking to the counter, he took out the bunch of keys that had just opened the door, compared them, and took out a suitable key and inserted it into the keyhole of the counter drawer.

Writhing back and forth, click, and the lock was opened.

He gently pulled out the drawer and lit it up with his phone to see how much he could get today.

"Damn, what's the money?"

The man lowered his voice, but could not hide his surprise and indignation.

I saw a little money scattered in the drawer, not even a red one, and the largest face value was only a green one.

This was a huge surprise to him.

He came prepared today, but he didn't expect to crash into the air?

Not to mention that due to the universality of electronic payment now, everyone habitually only carries a mobile phone when they go out, and uses QR codes to pay for everything, and basically no paper money is used.

In addition, Boss Lin's business on this floor is just a hobby of losing money, it is purely a business to make friends, and there are not many customers, how can there be much money.

The cash in this drawer has only been so much for a few months, and it has been sitting there for no use, otherwise the money in it may only be less.

Of course, how could he know about such a thing.

He took it for granted that his mother worked here, and the salary was quite high, and he thought that the business in this store was very good.

Ren Jianxian thought about it, even if QR code payment is popular now, it is estimated that a lot of banknotes can be saved, right?

However, the reality is really completely different from what he thought.

After all, he rarely comes to the store, and every time he comes to the store, he just asks for money, and he never stays here for long, where can he see that the business in this store is actually not good, or very bad, and Aunt Meng will not tell him about this kind of thing.

Just a little money in this drawer, it is better to steal a painting hanging on the wall and sell it, Lin Fan's paintings are still very valuable, of course, he doesn't have this vision, if he had, it wouldn't be mixed up like this.

"Grass, luck is really bad."

Ren Jian said hatefully, he swept away the change in the drawer and pushed it up.

He searched for several other drawers, but it backfired, and the drawers contained only money and money.

To put it bluntly, there is everything except no money.

Ren Jianxian bent over, lowered his head, and searched unwillingly.

While he was secretly searching for the contents of the drawer,

Under the bookcase in the dark hall, two pairs of eyes were staring at him,

Two cats, Coke and Seven Up, are crawling in a dark corner, waiting for an opportunity to move, making a low breathing sound.

They wagged their tails silently, slowly revealing their sharp claws, their fangs bared, and roaring silently......

It seems that at any moment he is going to rush forward and give the person in front of him color.

Stealing something dares to steal here, really, I don't know what to do.

At this moment,

They seemed to feel something in their attacking stance, but suddenly silently withdrew their fangs and sharp claws, lowered their tails, and squatted on the ground, as if waiting for something.

Second floor

bedchamber

Lin Fan is sleeping deeply,

The room was pitch black.

Lin Fan, who was lying on the bed, slowly oozed out a gloomy darkness, flowing like a liquid with a strange ghostly light, as if it was darker than the night.

It's his shadow.

This darkness slowly slid down from the bed and landed on the floor, as if consciously.

and then penetrate into the floor,

Go through the cement layer to the ceiling on the first floor.

Then, like a wildfire, it spread out in all directions, devouring all darkness.

Gradually, every wall, every corner, and every ground was covered in an eerie darkness.

Eventually, darkness spread through the glass door, silently swallowing up the last light that came in from outside the door.

Ren Jianxian was still squirming in front of the counter carefully looking for something valuable, and he didn't notice it in the slightest.

After still finding nothing, Ren Jianxian had to give up.

"Grass, it's really a bit back."

He closed all the drawers, glanced at the stairs to the second floor next to the counter, and didn't dare to go up again, he gave up anyway and prepared to leave.

He turned his head to look at the door,

"Huh? What's going on? ”

I saw that there was still a faint light shining in the hall from the door, but it was actually dark at this time.

He hurriedly turned up the brightness of his phone's screen to the highest and walked briskly towards the gate.

"The street lights go out?"

He placed his phone in front of the glass door, and outside the glass door it was a dark night, and there was no light to see.

"There's a power outage?"

Ren Jianxian wondered.

He reached out to open the door, but when he pulled it, the door didn't respond.

"Huh? Locked? I obviously ......"

When he came in, he obviously just took it with him, and he didn't lock it.

I took out the door key, inserted it, and I couldn't twist it.

"I'm grass, locked inside?"

Ren Jianxian began to panic a little in his heart, and increased the strength in his hand a little more, but the lock in front of him still did not respond, and the key could not be twisted for half a minute when it was inserted.

He pulled out his key and looked at it with the help of the light of his phone's screen.

That's right, it's the key to open the door just now.

Ren Jianxian's heart became more and more anxious, and his palms even sweated.

"Fuck me!"

What to do!

In a panic in his heart, cold sweat broke out under his armpits, and the smell of alcohol in his body was also washed away.

In desperation, he turned on the flashlight mode of his phone.

The bright light instantly dispelled a large area of darkness.

However, when he shone the light of his mobile phone flashlight out the door,

It was still dark outside, as if the darkness had swallowed up all the light, and not a single ray of light could penetrate the glass door.

He reached out and rubbed his eyes vigorously, thinking that he had drunk too much and was hallucinating.

But when he opened his eyes and looked again, it was still dark outside the door.

"How so?" Ren Jianxian was shocked.

Why is this happening? Am I dreaming?

He pinched a piece of meat on his arm with his fingers and pinched it hard,

"Hiss......"

Grass!

It hurts!

Not a dream!

At that moment, a slight gust of wind blew in his ears.

Whew-

Like,

A man breathed beside the base of his ear, and the breath he spat out on the back of his ear.

"Hiss......"

A cool air rushed up from his heels and rushed up to his scalp, causing his hairs to stand on end, his whole body tingling, and goosebumps.

Ren Jianxian trembled in fright, and then hurriedly turned around and shone the flashlight towards the hall behind.

In the dark,

Tables and chairs, coffee tables, sofas, bookcases, counters, everything is as usual, lying quietly.

No one.

Just was, delusional?

Ren Jianxian scanned left and right with a flashlight in disbelief, but there was still no one.

"Grass, I'm scared to death."

After taking a few heavy breaths to calm down his nervous mood, Ren Jianxian immediately turned around, didn't have time to think about why it was dark outside the door, took out the key and kept trying to open the lock.

However, no matter how much he writhed, the locked door remained silent.

In a hurry, he was hot all over, and he broke out the cold sweat that he had just been frightened.

And then

Whew-

Another exhalation,

From his ears came from,

"Hiss......"

It's a clever guy again,

"Who!?"

Ren Jianxian hurriedly turned around, the key plug was still locked, he picked up the flashlight of his mobile phone, and shone around again by the light.

The scene behind was still the same as before, quiet and empty.

At this moment,

Zi –

Zi –

Zi –

The mobile phone in Ren Jianxian's hand flashed brightly,

Whoop –

Then it was extinguished,

"Grass."

Ren Jianxian held the phone and kept pressing the unlock button,

However, there was no response.

"Out of power?"

No, he obviously fully charged his phone when he went out, how long did it take?

"What the hell!"

Ren Jianxian scolded in a low voice.

Um yes,

Hell yes.

As if to confirm his words,

In a word,

In the darkness of the hall,

On the floor of the hall a few meters not far from his right, two pairs of glowing green lights suddenly appeared.

Ghostly fire,

Eye.

......
