The door was opened, but it was not his own apartment that was opened, and it was not Li Xiaomeng who opened the door, but a resident who was facing the door, and the light from the house illuminated the corridor, Lu Tao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw this, and hurriedly stopped the scolding, he has been moving here for a few months, and he has never known that there are still people living in the opposite door.

Walking out of the house was a woman in her thirties, dressed in pajamas, unkempt, as if she had just gotten up, she glanced at Lu Tao, and complained: "Are you finished?" I'll get a good night's sleep, I'm just being quarreled with you! Can you not disturb the neighbors when you quarrel? ”

Lu Tao knew that he was wrong, so he couldn't argue much, so he could only say embarrassedly: "Ah... I'm sorry, I didn't know there were people living here... ”

"Even if you don't live there, you can't be so noisy! It's a high-end apartment! "The woman is a little reluctant!

Lu Tao hurriedly smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, I had a quarrel with my girlfriend, and I forgot to bring the key, so that's why... ”

Without waiting for Lu Tao to finish speaking, the woman glanced at Lu Tao again, and answered: "No matter what happens to you, don't make any noise!" After that, without waiting for Lu Tao to answer, he turned around and went back to the house, and closed the door again with a "bang", and the corridor returned to darkness again.

Lu Tao was scolded like this, his heart was even more angry, he raised his hand to slam the door again, but his hand hung in the air and slowly fell, he was worried that he would quarrel with the woman again, and then there would inevitably be a battle of tongues.

Lu Tao took out his mobile phone again, dialed Li Xiaomeng, and at the same time pressed his ears tightly to the door, held his breath, and listened carefully to the movement in the house, but Li Xiaomeng's mobile phone was still turned off, and there was no sound in the house. Lu Tao lowered his head and sighed, and happened to see the black shadow swaying back and forth at the crack of the door, Lu Tao was suddenly furious in his heart, obviously she was in the house, but she wanted to be like this, so Lu Tao yelled at the house viciously: "Li Xiaomeng! If you don't open the door today, don't open it in the future, and don't contact me if you have the ability! After saying that, there was still no movement in the house, and Lu Tao had no choice but to bang on the door and turn away.

Lu Tao touched the dark, arrived at the elevator entrance, and glanced back at the apartment when he left, the door never opened, and the black shadow in the crack of the door was still slowly shaking, Lu Tao gritted his teeth, and his heart was horizontal, and he entered the elevator; At least he had made sure that Li Xiaomeng was fine, but her temper... Anyway, in two days, she will definitely contact herself, she still has a child in her belly, what ability can she have to solve this matter, thinking of this, Lu Tao inexplicably felt more confident in his heart, so he went out of the community to take a taxi.

When Lu Tao returned home, it was late at night, Xu Yuan opened the door for him, Lu Tao looked at the clock on the wall, it was already more than ten o'clock. It was normal for Lu Tao to return late, so Xu Yuan didn't say anything, and went back to the bedroom to rest.

Lu Tao ate a closed door today, the more he thought about it, the more he was angry, it was an apartment he bought with money, Li Xiaomeng didn't even let him in, and after this incident, he must kick her out of that apartment, her temperament Lu Tao is fed up, Lu Tao secretly made up his mind in his heart. He stayed up all night last night, and was already tired by this time, so he also took a shower and went to bed.

The rain outside the window has long stopped, although it will be a little chilly after the heavy rain, but it is the height of summer, and the temperature is at least more than 30 degrees, but Lu Tao, who is lying on the bed, seems to be in an ice cellar at the moment, shivering with cold, at first I didn't feel it outside, but at this time it was very cold, especially on the back, as if it was stuck on the ice. Xu Yuan also felt that Lu Tao was trembling, so she asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Lu Tao replied: "It's okay, it's just a little cold, it'll be fine for a while." Xu Yuan was a little surprised when she heard this, but she still got up and helped Lu Tao pull the quilt. Although Lu Tao felt cold, he was too sleepy, and he fell asleep in a daze after a while.

On rainy nights, the streets are sparsely populated by cars and pedestrians, so they are unusually quiet. In Lu Tao's bedroom, it was also surprisingly quiet at the moment, and even the sound of heartbeat and breathing could be heard.

Suddenly!! There was a sound of footsteps at the door of the bedroom, and the footsteps were very soft, like barefoot, walking very slowly! Because the bedroom was unusually quiet, the footsteps at this moment were unusually clear, Lu Tao was woken up by this gentle footsteps, he thought it was Xu Yuan, so he turned over and prepared to continue sleeping. But as soon as he turned over, he was suddenly woken up, and it turned out that there was someone sleeping behind him, it was Xu Yuan!! Who was the footsteps just now?

Lu Tao was completely sleepless in an instant, his chest was rising and falling violently, and his breathing began to become short! I only heard the gentle footsteps behind me again! I'm slowly walking towards the bed! Lu Tao didn't dare to look back, he stretched out his hand tremblingly and gently pushed Xu Yuan, his movements were very small, for fear that the "people" behind him would see it, but Xu Yuan slept very deeply, Lu Tao pushed her a few times, and still had no response.

The footsteps behind him are getting closer and closer to the bed, and the sound is extremely clear, Lu Tao can't hear it wrong! Lu Tao was already very nervous at this time, and he pushed Xu Yuan harder, but she still didn't react.

The footsteps behind him stopped at this moment, judging from the sound, "she" should have reached the bedside. Lu Tao's heart was almost beating out, he didn't know who was behind him and what he was going to do. At this moment, Lu Tao was unusually quiet behind him, "that person" seemed to be waiting for Lu Tao to turn back, but Lu Tao did not have the courage, and time seemed to freeze.

After a while, seeing that Lu Tao didn't look back, the footsteps began to sound softly again, "she" slowly walked to the end of the bed, and then walked directly to the bed, Lu Tao still didn't dare to look back, just quietly listened to "her" next move.

At this time, a drop of "water" dripped to Lu Tao's neck, which was extremely cold, Lu Tao subconsciously reached out and touched it, and when Lu Tao saw it clearly, he screamed in shock, it turned out that what was dripping was not water, but blood!!

Lu Tao turned his head violently in a panic, but after seeing "her" behind him clearly, he let out even more hysterical screams! It turned out to be Li Xiaomeng! At this moment, she was standing upright on the bed, wearing a bright red dress, her hair was scattered, a pair of eyes were bulging out, there were no black pupils, her face was pale, and drops of black pus and blood slowly flowed from the corners of her mouth.

Li Xiaomeng had a dark black strangulation mark on her neck, and at this time she was slowly raising her hands and approaching Lu Tao, who was so frightened that she desperately curled up at the head of the bed, shaking Xu Yuan with one hand, but Xu Yuan didn't react for some reason.

Li Xiaomeng moved his steps and slowly approached, a pair of white eyes glared at Lu Tao condescendingly, his hands were getting closer and closer to Lu Tao, cold sweat broke out on Lu Tao's forehead, he wanted to get up and run away, but his legs were like being filled with lead, and he couldn't move at all.

Suddenly!! Li Xiaomeng leaned down and grabbed Lu Tao's neck with both hands, her hands were extremely cold, Lu Tao struggled hard, but Li Xiaomeng's strength was huge, Lu Tao was pinched so much that he couldn't even make a sound, and after a while, Lu Tao's eyes had begun to roll up...

"Wake up! Wake up! Xu Yuan shook Lu Tao violently, and Lu Tao finally woke up! At this time, the lights in the bedroom had already been turned on, and the frightened Lu Tao stared at Xu Yuan in front of him with wide eyes, looked around the bedroom in dismay, and finally whispered after a long time: "It's a dream again?" ”

Xu Yuan asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you?" After that, he put his hand on Lu Tao's forehead and exclaimed, "It's so hot!" You've got a fever! ”

Lu Tao's pajamas were almost soaked with sweat, and he replied weakly: "I have a fever?" No wonder... So cold! Lu Tao recalled the scene in the dream just now, it was too clear, more real than last night's dream! I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat again.

At this time, Xu Yuan had already found a thermometer and medicine, and after Lu Tao took the medicine, he lay down again.

Xu Yuan said: "Or don't go to work tomorrow!" ”

Lu Tao nodded weakly and asked casually, "What time is it?" ”

"Twelve." Xu Yuan replied.

What the?? At this time again, Lu Tao's mood that had just calmed down became tense again, why did he have nightmares at this time? Don't... He hurriedly stretched out his hand and took the mobile phone from the bedside, opened it and saw that it was indeed twelve o'clock!

He saw Xu Yuan walking out, so he secretly dialed Li Xiaomeng's phone, but it was still turned off!

Lu Tao's breathing became rapid again, and his head suddenly hurt as if it was about to explode, at this time Xu Yuan came back and said, "I don't know what's wrong with you?" For two days in a row, I pinched my neck and shouted 'don't'! ”

Xu Yuan's unintentional words suddenly made Lu Tao's heart even more frightened! What the hell happened to him? Why is this the case on both days? Why do you dream of Li Xiaomeng every day! Could it be that she really ... But I saw her shadow through the crack in the door today!

Lu Tao's thoughts were already in turmoil at the moment, coupled with the fever, his head suddenly hurt so much, Xu Yuan hurriedly came over to comfort: "No... It's okay, it's just a nightmare, hurry up and go to sleep, and when the fever subsides tomorrow morning, it'll be fine. ”

Lu Tao looked at Xu Yuan and nodded slightly, he didn't have any clue at the moment, so he could only continue to lie down and prepare to rest.

Although Lu Tao had a high fever and didn't sleep all night last night, it was still difficult to fall asleep at this time, and he was thinking about Li Xiaomeng repeatedly, what happened to her? No matter how bad her temper is, she won't turn off her phone for so long, not to mention that she has already arrived at the apartment in person, why doesn't she open the door! And why do you always dream that Li Xiaomeng wants to strangle herself?

A series of questions plagued Lu Tao all night, although he couldn't think of the answer, but it also tortured Lu Tao to sleep for a long time, and before he knew it, the sky outside the window had begun to gradually turn white.
