Although the sky was covered with dark clouds, the weather was still very hot. The few voices that knew it seemed to be weak and weak, and they were humming without a match.

The sun seemed to try to emerge from the dark clouds, reflecting the uncertain weather and mist on the lake, which added to the sense of depression in people's hearts.

This is a large man-made lake, which was built as a reservoir in those days. When the water is released and the reservoir is filled, the original two small hills become two isolated islands in the reservoir, one large and one small, which also has a unique style.

Wu Wei, a real estate developer, contracted the development rights of the reservoir and turned the reservoir into a "Twin Islands Ecological Leisure Park". Along the lake, several scenic spots have been opened, and a number of wooden promenades for visitors to rest, as well as a pier.

Of course, the main attraction of the whole lake area is the two isolated islands in the lake. The big island is called Penglai, which is an attraction open to tourists; The island is named Water Central, which is Wu Wei's private villa area.

Li Bing and the others are sitting in the promenade by the pier leisurely sipping coffee, waiting for the ferry to come and pick them up on the island.

The aunt in the wooden shop in the corridor had a sad face, and kept complaining that the business was not good, but unexpectedly, there was another death, which made people panic, and the number of tourists on the island dropped sharply.

Li Bing listened to Zhao Wan'er and the others chatting about their daily routines, and boredly picked up the greasy evening newspaper that Shi Liya took from the gas station, and her thoughts were as hazy as the smoke waves on the lake.

A few days ago in the evening, on the small island called the middle of the water, Ah Fu, the old housekeeper who stayed behind to watch the island, was patrolling around the island as usual.

When he walked to the lake, he suddenly felt a shock in his heart. Ah Fu couldn't believe his ears, there was someone talking in a small forest.

He was terrified, he was the only one on this island, how could he hear someone talking?

Wu Wei, the owner of the water center, accompanied his wife to Hainan for a vacation more than ten days ago. According to the usual practice, the people who helped in Wu Wei's house were all evacuated to the Jinsheng Tourism Company by the lake after Wu Wei, the owner of the island, left.

This tourism company, also opened by Wu Wei, is specifically responsible for the operation of this scenic spot, and Wu Wei's brother-in-law Su Peng is the general manager of the company.

In Wu Wei's private villa, there are usually three female workers, who are actually maids and a cook. Every time Wu Wei left, they would go back to the Jinsheng Hotel under the Jinsheng Travel Company to help, and when Wu Wei returned to the island, they would follow.

Ah Fu has grown up with Wu Wei since he was a child, but he is actually nearly ten years older than Wu Wei. It's just that because Ah Fu is loyal, Wu Wei didn't dare to trust others easily after making a fortune, so he called Ah Fu from his hometown here to be his housekeeper. said that he was a housekeeper, Ah Fu didn't care about the account, but just helped Wu Wei take care of this mansion in the middle of the water.

Since a woman drowned in this reservoir, the island called Water Central has not been peaceful anymore.

Wu Wei's wife Su Li woke up in the middle of the night and heard a strange sound on the stairs, she thought it was a maid who lived on the ground floor going upstairs, she couldn't help but be annoyed in her heart, and was about to be reprimanded, when she turned around, she caught a glimpse of a woman wearing a black dress with long black hair covering her entire face who was wandering back and forth on the stairs, and suddenly screamed in fright and passed out.

When Su Li woke up, she recalled the terrible scene, and thought of the woman in the black dress who was wet all over, and she still trembled with fear. Since then, the haunting of the drowning woman in the middle of the water has spread far and wide on this small island.

Although Wu Wei was bold and did not believe in evil, he could not resist his wife, so he had to agree to accompany her to leave here for a vacation in Hainan. The three maids on the island, as well as the cook, were overjoyed that they could escape from this terrible place.

When Wu Wei left with his wife Su Li accompanied by his bodyguard Tian San, the three maids and the cook also returned to the Jinsheng Hotel, leaving only the old housekeeper Ah Fu alone to take care of the entire island. Every Monday, Wu Wei's brother-in-law, Su Peng, sent someone to bring supplies from the Jinsheng Hotel to Ah Fu to the middle of the water.

It's only Saturday, and there's no way anyone can come to this little island. It was already dark on the island at this time, how could anyone still talk? Ah Fu couldn't help but be frightened in his heart, he thought of the female ghost in black who fell into the water that the hostess Su Li saw.

Ah Fu squeezed the electric baton in his hand, cold sweat poured out of his palm, and he felt wet and unstable.

He grew up and coughed. Two exclamations came from the grove, a man and a woman almost simultaneously: "Who? ”

There was actually a man, and when he heard the other party's voice, he was also full of horror, and a stone in Ah Fu's heart fell, and he concluded that the pair of men and women were people and not ghosts.

Ah Fu said angrily: "Who are you?" Didn't know that this water center is a private villa? I am Ah Fu, the steward of this island, and I haven't questioned you yet, but you have asked me who I am! ”

A panicked young man and woman flashed out of the grove, and when they saw the elderly Ah Fu's kind eyes, they slowly regained their composure.

The handsome guy said: "Old man, I'm a student at XX University, don't believe you look at my ID." ”

He took out a student ID, shook it in front of Ah Fu, and pointed to the beautiful young woman beside him and said, "She is my girlfriend, let's take advantage of the holiday to come to this lake to play together." ”

Ah Fu was stunned, and then said with a pleasant face: "It turned out to be a college student, I thought there were bad people on the island." How did you two end up in the middle of this water? Aren't all tourists on that Penglai Island? ”

The young woman snorted and said to Ah Fu angrily: "Old man, we originally went to Penglai to play. After renting two lifebuoys, we were getting ready to swim when he came up with the bad idea to swim with me to this small island. I looked at the two islands less than 100 meters wide and agreed to his proposal. ”

"In order not to be noticed by the management and to stop us, we did not change clothes in the locker room, but put our clothes in a plastic vest bag, tied to a lifebuoy, and sneaked here."

She paused for a moment, her face flushed, and she said shyly, "I didn't expect the scenery on this island to be so beautiful, and the two of us were talking and laughing happily in the woods. Before you know it, it's getting dark, and we're debating what to do, when we hear you talking. ”

Ah Fu understood everything in his heart, and he sighed: "You are a little couple, you know how to fall in love." You can't swim now, can you? If you want to return to Penglai or reach the shore, you are afraid that you will have more than enough strength to do so. ”

The man hesitated for a moment and said, "Old man, there is actually another reason. You see, the original clear lake water has become terrifyingly dark after the sky is dark, I heard that a woman has drowned here, how dare we swim in the water! ”

As soon as he heard the young man mention the drowned woman, Ah Fu's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but feel scared when he looked at the surroundings that were about to completely darken.
