Chapter 22: Midnight Trickery
The three people in the ice and snow, relying on the only beam of light, walked forward in the wilderness, all of them had solemn faces, and the strange events that happened in that manor, Tang Song and Zhang Fang naturally had some eyebrows. If you can combine the story told by the young driver in the taxi before, about the bizarre incident on Monland Avenue, then what happened in the manor is indeed terrifying.
"It's unbelievable, I walked this road a week ago, and although it was daytime, it was not like this, and the snow was falling so hard that it drowned out all the life." Sun Ya, who was walking in the middle, sighed: "If only I hadn't accepted this job offer at the beginning, or would have gone back with the middle-aged driver, hey." ”
"Hmm......" Tang Song, who was playing a flashlight, snorted, and then said: "I'm sorry, Miss Sun Ya, please forgive me, if you really think there is something wrong here, you can just leave and don't have to come back." ”
"I want to, I want to get out of here, and I don't even want to touch it again for the rest of my life." She was emotional, stared at Tang Songyi and said in a righteous manner: "Even if I give me 500,000 or 5 million, I will not be tempted again." You may not understand that when life hangs by a thread, material things are not attractive for survival, and I want to go, but I can't. ”
Of course I know, but if you can comprehend this, it is enough to prove that you are not a ghost and have been lost for a long time, otherwise even if we come today, I am afraid we will not be able to save you. Tang Song secretly said in his heart, and did not say this, but gave Zhang Fang a look.
"Miss Sun Ya, can I ask you a question?" Zhang Fang asked.
"Just call me Xiaoya." Sun Ya nodded.
"Okay, Sun...... Lesser. Zhang Fang smiled slightly and said, "Before you talked, you heard strange sounds in the room, so you went downstairs, and when you passed through the children's room, you found that the door inside was open?" ”
"Yes, when I passed by, it was indeed open."
"Did you close it earlier?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure?" Zhang Fang's expression was solemn, and he changed the box he was carrying to one hand. "You're sure the door was closed."
"But, maybe, I ......" Sun Ya frowned, and said: "I don't remember very well, it should, it should be closed, because I ...... To be honest, I really didn't want to see the wax figure, I was repulsed by it, so I should have closed the door. ”
Zhang Fang thought for a moment, nodded, the footprints in the dust and snow dissipated as they gradually faded away, he craned his neck, stared at the boundless darkness, and asked coldly: "Then when you closed the door again, did you feel that the climate in the house became colder, maybe it was as piercing and cold as when you touched the hand of the man in the house." ”
After a moment of silence, Sun Ya replied, "I don't know, because I didn't even set foot in that room at that time, I just reached out and closed the door." "If there are really evil spirits, the sudden change in the temperature of the surrounding environment is one of the most obvious features, and Zhang Fang and Tang Song obviously did not get this information." But ......" But then, Sun Ya said again, her voice was obviously hoarse. "I felt it in another house, like falling into an ice cave! And, and I've had even weirder, creepier things. ”
[After midnight, I don't know exactly when, but when I woke up from my bed, the entire estate was out of power. I was awakened by the cool breeze, the curtains flickering quietly in the quiet moonlight, and I dimly opened my eyes to find that the whole floor-to-ceiling window near the left was opened. This immediately made me wonder, I had feared for my own safety before I went to sleep, so I checked the house again and again, and not only did I lock the door, but I also closed all the windows, I did not think that the night wind could blow them open. So I quickly checked the bedroom, inside and out, like a midnight ghost, running around the house, but no one came in.
But that wasn't the main reason for my fear, and then I sat down at the head of the bed, and noticed something strange about the closed door, which came from the ground under the door, and the dark brown floor was shaking irregularly. To be honest, my first instinct was that there was someone outside the door! The terrifying scene made me feel even colder, so I curled up at the head of the bed, wrapped in the futon, and cried out in a lost voice: "Who, who's outside?" ”
The light and shadow on the ground were still shaking, like a man dancing with his hands, full of madness, and I almost thought that the man was a madman, a mentally ill person. "I, I know you're out there, what do you want to do!" I gasped and pulled my phone out from under my pillow to call the police. Oh hell, no signal! I vented my fear and came to the door with trepidation.
"You, what the hell do you want to do?" I tried to ask, maybe he wasn't a bad guy and even mistook me for a burglar. "Are you a servant here? Or do you have a relationship with Mr. Liu's family? Don't get me wrong, I'm the home nurse they brought in. "I stared at the flickering light beneath my feet, burning like a flame on my instep, but the man didn't answer me." Hi there? Did you hear what I said? "I hesitated, approached the door, and even tilted my head sideways and put my ears to the door, but I still didn't catch the slightest sound." Well, well, to prove my innocence, then I'll open the door now, can you calm down? Don't be impulsive, I still have an employment contract here. ”
After struggling for a long time, I bit my lip and teeth and twisted the doorknob. Clang, the door slackened, and then slowly opened, and I stared at the upcoming scene with a stunned expression, will he be a man, or a woman? Is it an old man, or a child?
However, I guessed incorrectly, there was no figure in the corridor, except for the red candles under the wall lamp on one side, all of them were lit, looking from the corridor, there was a different taste, this blood-red picture, eerie and terrifying, the room seemed to be shrouded in a layer of scarlet mist. I knew that after midnight the entire estate would be without power, but I didn't know that after midnight, all the candles in the estate would be lit.
I hurried back into the house, walked to the window, and took a closer look at the scene in the backyard, and sure enough, even a guiding light outside the pool was lit, shivering in the night wind. Bang! Suddenly, the familiar sound of collision sounded in my ears again, and my fidgeting mood was completely aroused, and I immediately ran out of the bedroom. I swear that whoever is playing tricks or pranks, if I catch him, I will not spare him! Fear makes me angry and makes me act aggressively.
Bang Bang ...... Bang Bang ...... The sound of bare feet echoed in the corridor, and I didn't stop when I passed the children's room, even though the door was opened again! I casually glanced in, and in the dim light, the mattress seemed to be lifted, and I couldn't see it very clearly. But at the moment, I just want to get to the toy pantry on the first floor as soon as possible, maybe the ghost trickster won't have time to slip away, and I'll catch him. (To be continued.) )
