Chapter 3: The Ghost Is Coming

Bang.

Chen Nian turned his head to look at the old-fashioned army-green iron gate that had been closed, and through the crack in the rusty railing, he could vaguely see a figure in a security uniform outside the iron gate.

Perhaps because of the light, the faces of the security guards outside the door were a little unclear, and they looked like a security guard who had just smoked with Chen Nian at the gate of the community.

But if you look closely, it looks more like a stranger, or a familiar stranger.

"Time is running out, the ghost is already so close to me."

Chen Nian turned his head and no longer paid attention to the figure outside the door, nor did he try to open the iron door.

He knew that the curse, or the ghost, was getting closer and closer to him.

Two days ago, after witnessing a woman's brutal suicide in the hospital, he could always see something moving closer to him.

At first, it was far away from me, and as time went on, this thing got closer and closer to me.

That's why Chen Nian stayed alone in an empty room, and the lights were always on, and there was not even furniture and a bed.

Because it is very likely that under the bed or in the cupboard, you suddenly see a ghost, this picture is exciting to think about.

Chen Nian was afraid that he would be scared to death by himself before he was killed by a ghost.

Back to Garden Complex Building 3.

Because it is an old-fashioned residential building, and the floor is not high, the residential buildings in the garden complex do not have elevators, there are two unit doors on the left and right, and there are stairs after entering.

Chen Nian walked up the stairs to the third floor, and the staircase was facing a large gate with the house number 301 hanging on the door.

"Is 304 on the other side?"

Luck didn't seem to be good, and the stairs Chen Nian chose led to Room 301.

Chen Nian could only walk along the corridor to the other side, there was a stairwell at the end, and in the middle of the corridor were 303 and 302.

Creak.

When passing by room 303, Chen Nian heard a slight sound, and it was a crack in the door of room 303.

Looking through the cracks, the room was pitch black.

Old-fashioned residential buildings like this are generally not very well lit, and the sky is starting to get dark, and even the corridors are a little dim.

It seems a little depressing.

It's like being in a haunted house.

Chen Nian turned his head to take a look, then turned his head and ignored the open room 303, and walked straight towards room 304 at the end of the corridor.

"Who are you, young man?"

The voice coming from behind made Chen Nian stop again.

The voice was hoarse and old, like an old man with his last breath in the wind and candle talking.

Turn your head.

Fortunately, there was no terrible scene in Chen Nian's imagination.

Room 303 in the corridor was already half open, and an old woman with a back on her back leaned on the door frame and looked at Chen Nian.

Chen Nian didn't answer the old man's words, and looked at the door opened by 303 with a frown.

Even though the vermilion wooden door was half open, Room 303 was still pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

"If it's okay, get out of here, it's not clean."

After the old man coughed a few times, he didn't wait for Chen Nian to speak, left an inexplicable word, and turned around directly and walked into room 303.

"Bang."

303 The scarlet gate is closed again.

Unclean certainly doesn't mean it's dirty, it's something that's not clean.

Chen Nian's brows furrowed even deeper, looking at the door that was closed 303 times, he hesitated for a moment and did not choose to knock on the door, but continued to walk forward.

But the sudden appearance of the old man in 303 and what she said made Chen Nian's heart covered with a thick haze.

"Horizontal and vertical is a death, at least let me die to understand."

Standing at the door of room 304, Chen Nian was a little nervous, if nothing was found here, then Chen Nian could only wait obediently to die.

Because this was already the time and place where he could trace [Dangerous Laughter] at the beginning.

Tear.

Chen Nian tore off the weathered seal on the vermilion gate and gently twisted the handle.

With a screeching grinding sound, the door lock was opened directly.

Now, with just a gentle push from Chen Nian, this door that has been sealed for 9 years will be opened again.

But he hesitated.

Ever since his three views collapsed and rebuilt, he knew that there must be ghosts in this world.

Moreover, people can be killed by ghosts!

Maybe the old man in room 303 just now is a ghost.

Perhaps, as soon as he opens the vermilion door of the same style as 303, there will also be ghosts inside.

"Squeak."

Chen Nian's palms began to sweat, he had already reached this point, and if he gave up now, he could really only wait for death.

Chen Nian didn't hesitate any longer, and pushed the door of 304 inside.

Hiss.

The scene inside the door made Chen Nian gasp.

In the line of sight, the entire 303 room is very tidy, the small one-bedroom and two-room decoration is extremely warm, it seems that 9 years have not brought much change to the room, and even the dust can not be seen.

Just a glance from the room.

Whether it is on the floor, on the wall, or even on the furniture and electrical appliances, everywhere you look, there are scarlet paintings.

And these paintings are all the same thing.

A smiling face.

All the paintings are distorted, except for a slightly raised mouth with a clear and somewhat eerie look.

The scene in front of him made Chen Nian's thinking a little stagnant, he thought that there might be rotting corpses or even ghosts in room 303.

But I couldn't imagine such a strange scene.

Who left these weird smiling faces?

Zhang Guoqiang?

The weird old man next door?

Or rather, ghosts!

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Nian still walked into room 303, but before entering, he stabbed the door lock with a dagger, so as not to have any accidents, the door was locked, and he couldn't run.

"It's terrifying, but nothing strange seems to be happening."

Chen Nian walked through the living room and looked at the kitchen, and found nothing unusual in the dim light, everything seemed to be frozen 9 years ago.

But that's where the weirdest part is.

A room that has been vacant for 9 years, even if not enough for wooden furniture, or metal appliances to rot and tatte.

But at least the room will be covered with cobwebs, and maybe even the walls will be mottled and peeled off.

But in room 303, except for the scarlet and weird smiling portraits, everything was too clean, clean and a little weird.

It's like someone is cleaning every day.

"The living room, kitchen, and balcony are all abnormal, and they are not the original scene of death, they can only be in the bedroom."

The corridor leading from the living room to the room is only a few meters long, and on both sides of the corridor less than 2 meters wide, there are two white wooden doors on the left and on the right.

According to the common layout of the room, the master bedroom should be facing on the right-hand side, while the room on the left-hand side is the guest room or children's room.

Knock knock.

Chen Nian was hesitating which door to open first, when dull and slow footsteps came from outside Gate 303.

It was like a corpse moving barefoot, and Chen Nian's hairs stood on end in an instant.

Turning around slightly, in Chen Nian's gaze, there was an old man standing at the gate.

Appears to be the old man in room 303.

But if you look closely, it doesn't seem to be.

"Ghost!"

Chen Nian chuckled in his heart, the ghost who was still downstairs just now had already followed.

"It's because the time of his death is approaching, which causes the ghost to get closer to him."

"Or because I walked into room 303, causing the ghost to follow."

Whatever the case may be, Chen Nian is not a good thing for Chen Nian.

"No matter, since the ghost has followed, it means that there will definitely be something to be found here."

Chen Nian forced himself not to look at the motionless figure at the gate, and one hand was already on the handle of the master bedroom door on the right hand.

"Ahem."

A coughing sound came, followed by someone talking in Chen Nian's ear: "Young man, it's getting dark, it's time to go home." ”

The hoarse and old voice made Chen Nian freeze again, and this voice Chen Nian was sure that it was the voice of the old man in 303.

Could it be that she is behind herself?

When did it come?

Why didn't I hear any movement!

Chen Nian turned his head stiffly, but fortunately, there was no figure around him.

"No, at the door!"

The figure outside the gate of 303 didn't know when it became clear, it was a hunchbacked old woman.

Chen Nian was thinking about a question in his mind for a moment: "The old man in room 303 is a ghost?" Or the ghost is the old man in room 303. ”

The two sentences seem to have one meaning, but for Chen Nian, they are completely two meanings.

If the first possibility is that the old man in room 303 is a ghost, it means that there is a second ghost here.

If it is the second possibility, the ghost is the old man in room 303, which means that the ghost who wants to kill Chen Nian is the old man in room 303.

It's just that now it seems that no matter which possibility it is, it is not much better for Chen Nian.

There are ghosts on the left and right, and there is no choice!

"I'm Nima!"

Chen Nian scolded.
