"Didi!"

The prompt sound of the mobile phone pulled Tang Tao back from his memory.

He received a > whose name was very straightforward, it was Nietzsche, and the avatar was Nietzsche himself.

This person Tang Tao is very familiar, he is a famous German psychologist and philosopher, he has a world-famous saying.

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you.

Tang Tao passed the friend request.

The other party sent a short video, and Tang Tao clicked on the video.

The video was pitch black, I couldn't see or hear anything, it seemed that someone held the camera and took this video, and after a closer look, Tang Tao found the clue, and he heard some sounds.

Tang Tao hurriedly turned his voice to the maximum.

This time he heard a heavy wheezing sound, a muffled voice that visibly trembled.

It seems that someone wants to breathe in the dark but doesn't dare, deliberately oppressing himself, he is afraid, Tang Tao clearly feels his fear, it seems that he is witnessing something that makes him extremely frightened, his hand holds the phone tightly, blocking the camera.

After a few seconds, the picture gradually became clearer, and a frightened face appeared in front of Tang Tao.

Big waves, melon seed face, hooked nose, the other party is actually Huang Zongze's wife Zhang Na, Zhang Na stared at the screen with her neck stalked, while the sharp dagger was attached to her neck, the blade had cut through her skin, blood slowly flowed down her white neck, a person loomed behind Zhang Na, her eyes widened and her whole body trembled, her expression was terrified and on the verge of collapse, Tang Tao could clearly hear the sound of her upper and lower teeth fighting.

The dagger slowly swept across Zhang Na's neck, and the blood splattered out and instantly stuck on the camera, and the screen turned a batch of blood red.

Blood slowly slid off the screen, and the video ended with a heart-rending scream.

Before Tang Tao could react, the video was withdrawn by the other party.

Nietzsche sent a message.

"That's the price you pay for breaking the rules of the game!"

Tang Tao's hands were trembling, he could see the video clearly just now, and the background of the video seemed to be in a container truck.

Rules of the game!

Tang Tao immediately thought of Zheng Long, who had already said that if Tang Tao violated the rules of the game, his friend would die.

There are two rules of the game.

First, you must follow Zheng Long's instructions.

Second, don't call the police, don't tell anyone.

Tang Tao violated these two things, he didn't go to the Northeast, and he also told Professor Lei about it.

"You're doubting the authenticity of the video, are you?"

Another message was sent, but the sender was not Nietzsche, but Huang Zongze!

This sentence is obviously followed by Nietzsche's words, Huang Zongze's mobile phone has fallen into Zheng Long's hands.

Although Huang Zongze beat Tang Tao, Tang Tao never thought of killing him, could it be that something happened to them?

Tang Tao was still skeptical.

Zheng Long seemed to have completely guessed Tang Tao's thoughts, and immediately sent another message, the content of the message was an address.

No. 37, Minxin Road, Creative Park.

This is Mr. Huang's address, and his home is in a townhouse behind his studio.

"What the hell do you want?" Tang Tao asked.

"Nietzsche."

Nietzsche?

Tang Tao understood the true intention of the other party's name, Nietzsche's homonym is you guess, he asked Tang Tao to guess his identity, his intentions, Tang Tao also wanted to ask the other party and immediately sent a message.

"You still have half an hour, and if you don't go, your friend will die, and if you break the rules of the game again, then just wait to collect his body."

Tang Tao glanced at the time, it was now past three o'clock in the morning, and the time he had just added to himself was exactly three o'clock.

It only takes about twenty minutes to set off for Minxin Road now, and there is not much time left for Tang Tao to think about.

So do you want to call the police?

Tang Tao hesitated, calling the police meant that he violated the rules of the game again, and Huang Zongze would die for it, and even said that his cousin and uncle would also have their lives in danger.

If you don't call the police, then it is very likely to fall into the trap again, just like the first time Tang Tao fought Zheng Long.

What to do?

Tang Tao walked to the window, there must be a police officer at the door of the community at this time, once they followed, then Tang Tao would violate the rules of the game, so Tang Tao had to get rid of them.

and Sophie, she is staring at the next door at this moment, and Tang Tao's every move is within her monitoring range.

There seems to be only one way to get out.

Tang Tao took a deep breath and opened the door and knocked on Sophie's door.

A few seconds later, the door opened, Sophie was still wearing daytime clothes, and she hadn't slept at all like Tang Tao.

"Tired, aren't you? I'd like to ask you out for a drink. Tang Tao squeezed out a smile and said.

"Aren't you not drinking?"

Tang Tao's smile was very warm, his expression was very natural, and it didn't look like he was lying at all.

"Did I say I was going to drink? There's a nice coffee house right on the doorstep, how about we go for a cup of coffee? Cats and mice will not appear in the house. ”

Sophie nodded knowingly, she was already tired after a night's stay, and it was better to go out for a walk, maybe the thief would come as soon as they left.

"Since you are so sincere, then I will reluctantly agree." Sophie said with a smile.

The two walked into the elevator together, and Sophie instinctively stood aside and kept a distance from Tang Tao, which was also his professional habit.

Tang Tao put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker, and Tang Tao's expression was a little strange in the cold elevator door, and a trace of ruthlessness inadvertently flashed in his eyes.

After going downstairs, the two walked out of the community, a black SUV was parked in the green belt, and the door was closed.

Sophie's appearance made the police relax their vigilance and did not choose to follow up, after all, everyone's primary target now is not Tang Tao, but the thief who flies off the wall.

There were only a few people in the coffee house late at night, Tang Tao could choose a relatively remote location, ordered two cups of coffee very generously, and then quickly slipped out the back door under the pretext of going to the toilet, got into a taxi and went straight to the creative park.

It didn't take long for Sophie to find out that Tang Tao was missing, and immediately reported the matter to Professor Lei, and at the same time called Tang Tao's phone, but Tang Tao's phone was no longer available.

On the way, Tang Tao kept urging his brother to hurry up, and finally at 3:25, Tang Tao rushed to No. 37 Minxin Road.

Huang Zongze's home was hidden among the tall trees, the round street lamp at the gate of the courtyard emitted a soft light, the white door was closed, and a gust of wind blew through the sound of rolling up the leaves.

Tang Tao had a strong intuition, and a pair of eyes were staring at him behind him, just waiting for Tang Tao to step into the trap he had designed a long time ago.

This is a very uncomfortable feeling, Tang Tao was scared, but his feet were getting faster and faster, pushing open the courtyard door and entering Huang Zongze's house.

Huang Zongze's door was hidden, the house was pitch black, and nothing could be seen, Tang Tao's mind came up with the bloody scene of Zhang Na's victimization, maybe this was a murder scene, and it was more likely that the murderer was waiting for Tang Tao in the house.

The dark door is like a huge black hole, attracting Tang Tao to go in uncontrollably, whether it is the truth or the trap behind this door, this is like Pandora's box, no one knows what is hidden here before opening the door.

Retreating, then it means that Huang Zongze will definitely die.

If you move forward, you may step into the abyss of no return.

Countless images flashed through Tang Tao's mind, he thought of Xia Yuqing, thought of Leng Bingling, and thought of Professor Lei.

With a squeak, Tang Tao pushed the door open.

A gust of wind hit, Tang Tao couldn't help but shiver, turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and raised it.
