Chapter 3: Shadows
I shuddered, and jerked my head up to look for those eyes again, only to find that the window was empty.
Someone...... At my house?!
I didn't dare to go back.
Things got to this point, and suddenly it got weird.
I thought to myself, could it be that I was wrong? Suddenly, I ran back to my house to find out the truth.
I picked up a brick on the side of the road and rushed all the way back to the house, and as soon as I arrived at the door, I found that the door was in good condition, and there was no trace of it being moved.
I bent down to make sure I hadn't been pried before I took out my key and opened the door.
There was nothing unusual in the house, and everything seemed to be perfectly normal.
I searched room by room, toilets, bedrooms, kitchens...... Even the wardrobe, the bottom of the bed, all kinds of crevices and corners were searched, but no one was found.
My house is on the eighth floor, and it's impossible to go through the window. So the only explanation can only be that she has fled.
I'm still a step too late.
I sat down on the couch slowly, and felt my heart pounding. I was really nervous just now, and I was about to explode.
I ran to the security room and told them that someone from my house had come in and wanted to see the surveillance.
After I explained the situation to them, they didn't slack off when they saw me like this, and immediately took me to the monitoring room to adjust the monitoring of our building.
They turned up the surveillance of the elevator and the entrance of my building, and I fast-forwarded and watched the video for several hours before and after, and the result was that there was no trace of the woman at all. I didn't even see anything like her.
This keeps me in a mystery once again, unless...... She's been hiding in the building all the time? How is this possible?
The more I thought about it, the more I thought that maybe it was really me who was hallucinating, otherwise it would be too difficult to explain.
The security guard asked if I needed to call the police, but I declined, saying that it might have been a misunderstanding and prevaricated. Lost and dejected, he returned home.
I was almost letting go, but suddenly this kind of thing happened, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
I sat down on the couch and suddenly I felt that something was wrong.
When was the door to my second bedroom opened?
I remember that I closed it, and I don't usually open that door much at home.
I immediately walked over and gently pushed the door open.
The scene I saw inside almost made me faint.
The dummy...... Standing in the middle of the room!
I screamed in fright and sat down on the ground.
It was terrifying, and a dummy stood there in the dark room. Both of my legs were almost as weak as noodles.
I didn't even see this thing when I searched my room! When did it come in?!
Also, hasn't this thing been taken away by the police department? How it came back!
The atmosphere in the whole room was so strange that I didn't dare to stay any longer, and I immediately ran out of the house.
What the hell is going on? My head crashed, and I was fine.
Could it be that dummy...... Lived?
My mind couldn't help but start thinking about it, and I felt like my reason couldn't explain it.
When I ran downstairs, I met my neighbor Mr. Gao in the elevator room, the occupancy rate of our community is not high, many houses are empty, and basically several families in the same building know each other. This teacher Gao lives next door to me, is in his thirties, wears glasses, is a middle school math teacher, and usually speaks very politely. It is said that he is married, but no one has ever met his wife. Whenever I see him, I am alone.
I was in a panic, and I didn't know what to say when I saw him, so I nodded to him, and I wanted to just go over, but Mr. Gao looked at me and asked in a low voice, "I saw you go with the police two days ago?" What's wrong, what's wrong. ”
"It's nothing......," I was stunned, not knowing how to explain it to him, and then simply said, "My family has been burglarized." But nothing, nothing of value was lost. ”
Teacher Gao was a little surprised, he said, "Go back and change the lock quickly, and you must lock the door at night in the future." The property in our community is very irresponsible, and you must be careful. ”
I quickly said I knew, and then he acted like he was fine, and he left.
I breathed a sigh of relief. I really don't know how to tell people these things, so I can only hold them in my heart.
I called the policeman who left me the phone directly, after all, he was the only person I could turn to for help in this kind of thing.
Captain Lin didn't answer the phone, I hesitated, and simply went directly to the police station last time to look for him.
When I arrived at the police station, they told me that Captain Lin had gone out. So I didn't go anywhere, I just waited here, and now there is no place that gives me a greater sense of security than this place.
After waiting for half an hour, Captain Lin appeared. He didn't take me too seriously when he saw that I came, so he asked me what I was doing here.
I hesitated for a moment, and told him what had just happened, and when he heard it, he looked very interested, pondered for a moment, and said, "Don't touch that dummy, don't touch anything." Just leave everything as it is, and do whatever you have to do. ”
I didn't expect him to give me such advice, and I was stunned for a long time before I said, "That...... Won't something happen? ”
"What's wrong? It's just a dummy. Are you still afraid that it will not survive? Captain Lin laughed playfully.
What he said made me a little embarrassed, and after thinking about it, I said, "But...... What if the person who came into my house came again? ”
"Don't worry, if that person wanted to attack you, he would have done it a long time ago, and he would have to wait so long?"
As soon as I heard that this really made sense, I didn't know what to say, Captain Lin looked at me and said, "Is there anything else?" ”
I shook my head and said no, since he had said so, I couldn't say anything more, so I had to go home.
I didn't expect Captain Lin to say this this time, I felt a little surprised in my heart, and I suddenly wondered if he was doing something with me? But there was no way, so I could only do what he said for the time being.
And sure enough, in the middle of the night, something new happened.
I was just after one o'clock in the evening when I was suddenly woken up by a very slight movement. Because I am a very sensitive person, I am very prone to waking up at the slightest movement.
When I came together, I found that the light in the living room outside was on for some time, and the light was coming through the crack under my bedroom door.
I sat up from my bed abruptly, and I remember very well that I turned off the living room light before going to bed at night, and I could never forget to turn off the light and go to bed. So the only possibility is ......
Before I could figure it out, I saw a shadow of a pair of feet standing in the light from under the crack in the bedroom door.
