Chapter 5: Terror
In the middle of the night, the cold moonlight shines in through the window, illuminating all the mirrors in the house.
"Woo ......"
I don't know if it was from downstairs or from the living room on the second floor, suddenly a woman's cry sounded. The cry was intermittent, sometimes desolate, sometimes sharp, and if you listened carefully, there seemed to be a fierce laugh in it, and it was very infiltrating to appear on such a silent night.
Chen Siyu, who was lying on the bed, closed her eyes tightly, and the faint moonlight hit her face, reflecting her slightly tangled and simple face.
Her lying body began to tremble, flipped to the left and then to the right, and it was evident that she was not sleeping well.
This state was maintained for a while, and Chen Siyu finally woke up from a nightmare.
"Whirring ......"
Chen Siyu gasped with palpitations, and a layer of greasy sweat appeared on his face, this dream was really terrifying.
After waking up, Chen Siyu couldn't fall asleep anymore, I don't know if it was because of the nerve stimulation, she was very awake, and she didn't feel drowsy at all.
Forcefully opening her eyes, her gaze gradually adjusted to the darkness of the moment, and she raised her head slightly, and she could even see the horror on her face through the blue mirror on the cabinet door.
She was afraid of the mirror, especially in this darker environment, because when she looked at it this way, there was only a blurry black shadow in the mirror, and she couldn't see her face clearly, and she couldn't feel any familiarity, only a creepy peeping feeling.
She hurriedly withdrew her gaze staring at the mirror, and subconsciously pulled the quilt that had slipped a little, and she breathed a sigh of relief after doing this.
But the good times didn't last long, because she was faint, faintly ...... I heard a cry!
The cry was sharp and desolate, judging from the timbre that it should be a woman's cry, and it felt like it was very close to her. It didn't seem to come from outside, but it looked like it came from somewhere in her house!!
"Is it Mommy watching TV again?"
Chen Siyu listened with bated breath for a while, the cry was intermittent, and it was very contradictory mixed with laughter.
Subconsciously, she suddenly remembered the nightmare that woke her up, and it seemed to be this kind of infiltrating sound in the dream, but it shouldn't be so coincidental, right?
Recalling her experience in the nightmare, Chen Siyu immediately had goosebumps on her body, and hurriedly wrapped the quilt tightly, revealing only two eyes outside. Staring at the gloomy canopy above, he didn't dare to move.
I wanted to just fall asleep, but I was very helpless, and she actually had the urge to urinate at the moment. And the crying and laughter outside continued, so she really didn't want to get up.
And the sound is only one aspect, the most distressing thing for her is that the bathroom is on the first floor, and if she wants to go down, she has to go through the living room full of mirrors. Anyone who wakes up at night knows how scary mirrors can be in the dark, especially in the style of her home. I think it's nothing more than a mirror shop.
She still remembers an experience she had when she was a child. It was also a slightly bright night like this, and she was the only one at home because her parents were out on business. She had to leave the bedroom because she felt the urge to urinate. But the living room was pitch black, and she couldn't feel the switch for a while, so she had to speed up her pace and walk up the stairs.
It didn't matter, but at this time, a beam of light happened to come in through the window. At a glance, she saw the mirrors on the wall, and saw that the mirrors were full of her blurred figure, and she suddenly had a feeling of being stared at by a lot of eyes. This also directly scared her who was already timid unconscious. This leaves a heavy shadow on the mirror.
Besides, two days ago, she was severely frightened by the wide realm placed on the stairs, although there was no problem with the mirror after that, and she and her mother had also looked at it carefully, but the old woman who appeared in the mirror that day still appeared in her mind from time to time, and she could not forget it.
She really wanted to throw away the mirror, but after all the good things were said, her mother was superstitious and refused to move away, and she quarreled with her because of this matter, so she could only choose to accept it helplessly.
The urge to urinate became stronger and stronger, and Chen Siyu couldn't continue to lie on the bed, so he had to reluctantly force himself to climb off the bed.
She reached for the light switch next to the bed, but after pressing it several times, the light above did not respond.
"There was a power outage......
Chen Siyu secretly said that he was unlucky, grabbed his mobile phone from the bed and ran towards the stairs quickly, ignoring the ghostly mirrors on the walls on both sides.
But even so, she was still terrified to death in her heart, only feeling the ghosts around her flickering, and countless evil eyes staring at her.
When she ran to the stairs, she vaguely saw a vague figure in the mirror opposite, from far and near, she didn't dare to pay too much attention to it, but inadvertently glanced at it, just a glance.
But this glance made her heart suddenly tighten, because of her, she actually saw the face of the portrait clearly!
It's the old woman, it's still the same as that day, clinging to the mirror and laughing at herself!
"Hallucination, it must be an illusion!"
Chen Siyu didn't dare to look at it again, so she had to comfort herself in her heart, but the good times didn't last long, just as she had bypassed the mirror and had gone down to the stairs, the crying and laughter she heard in the room appeared again.
And this time, because it was very close, she could clearly identify the source of the sound, which came from the first floor.
The light on the first floor was dimmer than on the second floor, so much so that when she looked down from the stairs, it was only pitch black. She gasped violently, and then moved downwards one step at a time.
After a short period of adaptation, she was finally able to see the environment on the first floor in a small area, and then she didn't dare to stop, so she groped her way in the direction of the bathroom, and got closer to the source of the cry.
Chen Siyu had already thought about it, no matter what her mother said this time, she would run to sleep with her mother, this home was so terrifying, she didn't dare to live alone on the second floor.
Frightened, her brain went blank, and she finally came to the door of the bathroom, the door of the bathroom was slightly open a gap, and through that gap, there was a faint white light coming out.
Chen Siyu stood outside and didn't dare to go in for a while, until she wondered if it was already a call, so she mustered up the courage to open the door and go in.
It was just that her fingers had just touched the door, and an extremely piercing cry came from inside!
Oh my God, that voice came from the bathroom!
Chen Siyu was stunned, and listened to her ghost envoy ask inside:
"Mom...... Is it you in there? ”
"Woo woo ......" responded to her with a series of miserable and piercing cries.
Chen Siyu didn't know what to do, at this moment she could be said to be completely frightened and stupid, and almost lost any ability to think. At this time, I don't know where she got the courage, so she actually knocked on the door and slowly opened the bathroom door.
Everything was just as she saw outside the door, there was indeed a very dim light in the bathroom, and there was indeed a woman sitting on the toilet.
The woman lowered her head, still crying at the moment, it was none other than her mother.
Seeing that the person inside was his mother, Chen Siyu didn't cry, and said excitedly to her mother:
"You really want to scare me to death, what's wrong, weishenme will hide here and cry?"
Hearing Chen Siyu's inquiry, her mother's crying gradually died down, and then she raised her head. Immediately, the excitement and joy on Chen Siyu's face completely froze.
Because of her mother's face...... Exactly like the old woman in the mirror!! (To be continued......)
