Chapter II
The sound on the security door was very soft, but in this case, Marlene was incredibly clear to hear. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info That's the sound of something gently scratching the steel plate on the security door, as if something is sliding through the door with a "hand", and the next moment will it knock on the door? No one knows. Marlene just gagged and looked at the security door - the only thing that gave her a little peace of mind was that she had already pinned the pin.
The sound was gone, not even the footsteps. Although Ma Lin told herself that she must not go over to look, the ghost who died in the dark made her cautiously come to the cat's eye to look. The street lights outside were still on, and there was no sound but they didn't go out, so they lit up in vain, miserable and white. There was no one outside, and it was empty from the cat's eyes. The lights on the elevator were flickering, and it was clear that an elevator was coming up. Marlene watched in the cat's eyes as the elevator stopped after a ding-dong and the elevator doors opened.
There was no one in the elevator, and after a few seconds the door opened, it began to close. But just as it was about to close, it opened again. Ma Lin didn't dare to look at it anymore, she quickly turned off the lights and turned off the TV, and threw herself on the bed and covered her head with the quilt. The footsteps outside the door sounded again in the silent night, and even through the quilt Marlene could hear the unhurried footsteps. Finally, the footsteps disappeared......
Marlene couldn't sleep a little, and once again she leaned on the door and looked out through the cat's eye. It was already dark outside, and only the elevator lights flashed to make a little bit of a difference. There seemed to be no one in the hallway, and there was always a sense of foreboding in the darkness. Marlene hurried back to bed, counting the sheep to put herself to sleep.
She had a night of bizarre nightmares, and when she woke up, she felt groggy and not refreshed at all. But the light of day gave Marlene a lot of courage, and when she had finished washing, she opened the door - before she looked out with the cat's eyes, of course, and everything was calm and nothing.
Open the door to work, but before that, Ma Lin carefully looked at the ground and the security door of her house, except for a few "footprints" on the ground that were very faint and could not be said to be stains or water marks, there was nothing abnormal.
At work and work, Marlene still went home early on this day - she really didn't dare to return at night, and after yesterday it seemed like in the past, she didn't dare to go home after ten o'clock at least now. As soon as she entered the door, Ma Lin pinned the pin, and the next thing was the normal routine of eating and watching TV, but she also pricked up one ear to pay attention to whether there would be footsteps outside the door.
In fact, if the security door was closed, it would be impossible for footsteps to enter her room. Marin only heard the sound of the door closing outside to know about the neighbors coming back or going out, but it was only seven o'clock in the evening, and it was not the so-called dangerous time. "Go to bed early!" The woman secretly made up her mind. At nine o'clock in the evening, Marlene went to bed. But as soon as I lay down, my phone rang. One of her suitors wanted to come up and talk to her, though Marlene's repeated refusal failed to reverse the boy's wishes. She sighed, this guy is a stalker who has been pestering Marlene since she met her at a party, and he has to give gifts to go out every once in a while. Marlene had rejected him several times, and even made it clear that the two were inappropriate, but this person was as deaf as a paranoid.
At ten o'clock, the doorbell rang. Marlene didn't want the man to enter at all, and was ready to open the door to deal with him. She walked to the security door and looked out with a cat's eye attached to it - the guy was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand and was struggling to figure it out. She was about to open the door when suddenly the hallway lights went out. The sudden light and darkness made Marlene in the cat's eyes unable to see anything at all. The lights didn't come back on, and her suitor never saw it again....... She didn't dare to go out, but she dared to call the police.
Ten minutes later, the police came. Marin only dared to open the door at this time, she said that the man was standing here just now, she wanted to open the door but the light was dim and the man disappeared. At this time, the neighbors also opened the door, and they may not be able to testify, but at least they can watch the excitement. Marlene could swear that the elevator didn't stop for ten minutes except for the police to come up, and as for whether the man would have gone down the safety ladder by himself, it was uncertain - even Marlene didn't dare to say that he certainly didn't go down the stairs.
This is not a big deal, at least that's what the police think right now. When they didn't confirm each other's traces, they were able to look at the surveillance at the entrance of the high-rise building and the two of them to check the stairs one by one. The man who came in could be seen on the surveillance, but he was not seen going out. And the inspection of this twenty-two-story building did not find that anyone was hiding in it mischievously, and this person just disappeared out of thin air? The surveillance inside the elevator only found footage of the person coming up. Of course, there is an explanation that this guy has a room in this building, and he is hiding in it to scare people and play pranks.
But none of this can be done now, some rooms in this building are vacant, and even the security guards, the property and the neighborhood committee can't figure out who lives there. The police left first, and Marin could only give up temporarily. The suitor's cell phone had been turned off - Marlene had already tried to call this when she called the police. She leaned against the window and looked out, puzzled.
The building took on three-dimensional shadows in the moonlight, and Marlene felt a cold feeling as she looked at these shadows and the black patches of greenery below. "Seems to be in the shadows?" She always felt this way, but she couldn't see it clearly—although she wasn't short-sighted, the clouds that kept floating in the sky covered the moonlight, and the light and darkness kept switching, making it difficult to see.
Ma Lin was still holding her mobile phone in her hand, when the phone rang. When she found out that it was the missing guy calling, she was furious. After pressing the answer, she was ready to completely tear her face and scold the man, but there was no sound on her phone. She pressed her phone and called back, this time turning it off again. Now Marlene had thought that the man was just joking with her, and had thrown her fear to Java. Her hand swiped over her phone, as if she had touched something, and she took several photos in a row. Marlene didn't look any further, turned off the phone and went to sleep.
She slept so well that she didn't even feel better the next day. She giggled and farted in the office - that's the little privilege that beautiful women have, and at noon she checked her phone, "Ah, when are these pictures available?" Taken last night? She remembered that she seemed to have taken a few photos by accident, so she pulled them out to be deleted.
The photo is a bit blurry because it's out of focus – it's clear that the focus is on the glass window of the house, and the view outside is a bit blurry. But Marin felt that something was wrong, and her good mood suddenly disappeared - there seemed to be something vague in the photo, and the continuous photos were quickly switched by Marin. After switching back and forth several times, she finally noticed something unusual.
In the shadow of the building, there is a tall figure, this figure has a miserable white face that can't distinguish facial features but seems to be wearing sunglasses, hands and feet are unusually long, black suit, the most bizarre thing is that this slender person actually looks like a six-story building in the shadows, but it is very slender, in the continuous photos it seems to be moving, but it is always in the half-shadow and half-moonlight. The slender man seemed to be holding a small object, and he couldn't see what it was, but Marlene had a hunch that it might be a human body......
Screams rang out from the pantry, and Marlene fainted......
