Chapter 2: A Knock at the Door in the Middle of the Night

After chatting for a while, Uncle He instructed He Chuan to lead me to the room, which had been prepared a long time ago. Their house has only two floors on the first floor and one on the bottom, and there are two rooms on the left and right of the downstairs hall, which are composed of the main room and the partition room, excluding the hall and the stairwell, there are four rooms in total. The upstairs layout is similar, the difference is that the upstairs layout is similar to the general living room, with sofas, coffee tables, and TVs.

My room was in the back room on the right side of the living room, and He Chuan said that there were already people living next door to me. Directly opposite the room, on the other side of the living room is a locked idle utility room, and next to the miscellaneous room is a vacant room, which is also a guest room.

He Chuan and Uncle He themselves lived in the rooms on both sides of the hall downstairs by the courtyard. Before going downstairs, He Chuan specially instructed me to go downstairs for breakfast at about eight o'clock in the morning, and told me that I could partner with them for dinner in the future, or I could buy ingredients and make my own, and the kitchen could be used casually. The kitchen is located in the downstairs hall to the left and the back of the hall, the stairwell is behind the wooden wall, and the kitchen is next to the staircase upstairs and the hall downstairs.

The toilet in the small building is an independent modern brick wall concrete structure, located at the junction of the wooden buildings on the left, and is also two floors, and the corridor of the wooden building leads directly to the toilet and bathroom, and the toilet and bathroom are separated by a wall.

My sleep quality has never been very good, but I did a simple wash and fell asleep. Traveling is the most exhausting thing, especially after a bumpy bus.

In the haze, I had a very special dream, in which I dreamed of a girl in black. She has a delicate figure and an elegant gait, but there is a slight arrogance. She walked unhurriedly in the dark, and I was so curious that I couldn't help but follow slowly......

In my dreams, I felt that my steps were sometimes light, sometimes heavy. When it is light, it seems that it will float up if it is not careful, and when it is heavy, it will stomp down weightlessly, and I try to control myself, I want to get closer, but I am afraid of disappointment. As I walked, she suddenly stopped where she was, and I approached cautiously and gently, lest she be disturbed. I shifted uneasily from side to side, trying to spy on her from the side.

Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of what seemed to be something writhing around her slender waist. If you don't pay attention to it at first glance, you think it's just a belt tied around your waist, but if you look closely, you will find that it looks more like a live snake wrapped around your waist.

Such a strange situation made my heart pound with nervousness. Driven by curiosity, I couldn't help but want to get closer and find out......

At that moment, I suddenly heard a knock on the door, and I was instantly awakened by the sound. I looked sideways at the door and listened carefully for a while, but I didn't notice anything unusual. I think I heard it wrong, it's late at night, it's upstairs, who's going to knock on my door?

I closed my eyes and planned to go back to sleep, and if I was lucky, maybe I could continue to see the mysterious girl in black in my dreams.

Suddenly, there was another hurried knock at the door, and this time I heard it clearly.

"Who?" I asked vigilantly, lowering my voice.

'Tuk tuk tuk ......', no one answered me, but the knock on the door rang again.

"Please wait a minute......" I was slightly upset, but I quickly put on my pants and T-shirt, stepped on my slippers and walked to the door.

"Hello, is there anything wrong with you?"

When I opened the door, I saw a frightened young girl in her colorful pajamas, she grabbed me a little excitedly, looked very nervous, and hurriedly said, "There are ghosts, there are ghosts, I see ghosts......"

She is not too tall, her facial features are as delicate as jade, and she still has medium-long hair in this pure makeup situation, but it is a little messy. I guess she's the tenant living next door, but she turns out to be a pretty girl.

Of course, my unhappiness disappeared because of this, and I had to show my due demeanor in front of girls, especially pretty girls.

"Ghosts? Where is it? I asked, looking around.

"Just ...... Yes, there is! She was a little embarrassed to let me go.

"Oh, okay, okay, isn't there no now?" I thought she was just having a nightmare, so I comforted her as I walked to the living room, poured a glass of water from the kettle and handed it to her.

"You don't believe me? It's true! I wasn't asleep when you came, and I heard you talking to the little landlord, but I didn't bother to come out to see it. Later, when I was about to fall asleep, I heard someone knock on my door, and when I asked who it was, no one answered me, and at first I thought it was you, so I ignored it......" She said as she looked at me, and then sat down on the couch.

I looked at her, waiting for her to continue.

Maybe she was a little mistaken by me, so she explained: "Don't look at me like that, do you think the person who knocks on someone's door in the middle of the night will be a good person?" ”

I smiled and said, "I don't know about that, but I think you're definitely right......"

It was obvious that I was joking, but of course she understood what I was saying, and said with a little unhappiness: "Do you still want to listen?" ”

"Yes, of course, please continue......" I immediately changed to a serious look.

She grabbed her loose hair and continued: "With such a fuss, I don't fall asleep so easily, and I originally wanted to get up and pour a glass of water to drink. As soon as I arrived in the living room, I didn't have time to turn on the light, and suddenly I saw a dark figure standing at your door. It seemed to notice me, looked back at me, and then 'whoosh' and disappeared...... Don't ask why he didn't turn on the light, but I knew he looked back at me, because his eyes would glow, and he looked green......"

I suddenly felt a little unbelievable, and when I first heard her say that I saw a 'ghost', I really didn't believe it. I asked her, "What was he doing when you saw him?" How tall is he? What body shape do you still remember? ”

She thought for a moment and said, "It should be...... It's opening the door or knocking on the door, it looks slim, I feel like a girl...... Wait a minute...... Was it you who knocked on my door in the first place? ”

I said, "Of course it's not me, I'll go back to my room after I wash up." Besides, do you look like such a boring person in my face? ”

She looked at me and said, "Like! But I'm sure it's not you...... So, knocking on my door is ......"

I was speechless, but I also remembered that when she came to me, it was the second time I heard a knock on the door, and I asked her, "How many times did you knock on my door?" ”

I suddenly felt that this was not the right question, so I changed my tone and said, "I mean, have you knocked on the door of my room and then knocked on it every minute or half a minute?" ”

She said no. From this point of view, there is indeed something else on this floor besides us, and it is not known what it is. As far as we know, it is possible that she is a slender person of the opposite sex? I knocked on the door of the next room first, and after hearing the girl's voice, I left, and knocked on my door again, but before I had time to follow, I was scared away by the girl who came out of the room to pour water and drink.

I suddenly felt a little glad, and glanced at the girl on the sofa gratefully, could it be that she was coming for me? It doesn't make sense, I've just arrived here, and I'm not familiar with life. Somehow, I suddenly remembered my interrupted dream.

"That figure, is it taller than you, with obvious body lines, and wearing something similar to that kind of tights?" As soon as I said it, I suddenly regretted it a little, because it was not easy to explain.

"Seems to be taller than me, and it does look like a tights...... Do you know? She's coming for you? ”

Sure enough, in the face of this suspicion, I had to smile and say, "If I said that I dreamed of her, would you believe it?" ”

She gave me a blank look: "Do you think I will believe it?" ”

"You said she disappeared with a 'whoosh', and she didn't disappear out of thin air, right?" I asked, puzzled.

"I was so anxious and scared that she was so fast...... 'whoosh'......" she said, gesturing, as if mimicking the vanishing shadow with her hands.

"Bathroom ......" I hurriedly ran in the direction of the bathroom, vaguely, I was a little suspicious that the black shadow was very likely to be the girl in black I dreamed of, but I didn't understand, how could I dream of someone I had never met for no reason?

The girl on the couch was also taken aback by my actions, stood up with a 'free' and ran to follow.

I didn't dare to rush directly into the bathroom, but first turned on the bathroom and bathroom lights at the same time, and the switch was installed in the same place, that is, the door of the bathroom. The girl dragged my clothes after me, and after we checked the bathroom and bathroom, we didn't find anything out of the ordinary, the only thing unusual was that the bathroom window was open.

If I'm not mistaken, the window should have been closed. I walked over and looked outside, but it was pitch black and I couldn't see anything.

"Outside is a cement roadway......"

"I should have jumped from here, can I let go now?" I looked back at her, and because I was so close, she was wearing only thin, loose pajamas, and I glanced at her unconsciously.

"What do you see? Rogue! She quickly pressed her hand to her chest.
