Chapter 1: Photos

Next Chapter

"If you dare to like someone else, I'll come out of the picture!"

The man looked at the photo in his hand, and she was still beautiful and moving, as if everything was still yesterday.

Smiled and shook his head, they have broken up for almost half a year, in the past six months, they have changed to a new city, a new job, and they have not heard from each other, and now they can only rely on this photo to see things and think about people.

Standing downstairs in the community, the man looked up and saw that he had shared a room here, and next to the bedroom was a landlady.

Frankly speaking, the landlady is in her early 30s, and she is no longer the young man she was at the beginning, living alone in the same room, it is inevitable that she will have a trace of affection in her daily life, but she has never taken the last step.

"Whew~"

With a soft exhalation, the man wiped his face, put aside the cranky thoughts in his mind, lit a cigarette, and walked towards the door at the bottom of the building.

This building is an old-fashioned residential building, not high, only six floors in total, and the corridor is surrounded by various sewers and contact numbers for black cards.

The room that the man rented was on the top floor of the sixth floor, so when he went upstairs, he never counted the floors, and he walked to the top floor and arrived home.

"Cluck, cluck."

The lights in the corridor are voice-controlled, flickering and flickering with the sound of leather shoes stepping on the stairs, and the cigarette lit in the man's mouth is always burning, emitting wisps of green smoke.

One step, two steps.

The man walked up step by step, walking, the smoke went out, the man stopped, and the voice-activated light dimmed.

In the dimly lit hallway, the man suddenly realizes that something is wrong.

Usually when he finishes smoking, he has already entered the house, and now he is still in the hallway.

Cigarette butts were thrown on the ground by the man at random.

He began to speed up, and in his mind, he walked about four or five floors.

He began to panic, he had been walking for so long, it was impossible that he hadn't reached the sixth floor yet.

He looked down from the gap in the stairwell, it was pitch black, he screamed, the voice-activated light actually didn't respond, and the darkness of the corridor gradually engulfed the man.

He didn't dare to go any further, and began to walk back, at the moment he just wanted to go back to the ground first, maybe that would make him feel a little safe.

As he walked, he began to speed up, and in the dark corridor, suddenly in front of him, a woman with her back to him appeared.

The woman's figure is somewhat familiar, but because it is facing away, the man can never see the face clearly.

The man shouted, seeing that the other party did not respond, the surrounding darkness attacked the man little by little, and the endless stairs made the man's scalp tingle.

He stiffly rounded the back woman, but strangely.

When the man looked back at the woman downstairs, she still had her back to him.

The man quickly continued to go downstairs, he didn't want to cause trouble anymore, what happened today was enough to make him tremble.

Suddenly, a bell rang from the pocket, which looked very strange in the dark and empty corridor.

The ringtone startled the man, and he dared to turn on his phone.

It's the landlord!

"Hey, why haven't you come back so late today, your boss is really, let you work overtime so late every day."

Listening to the landlord's words of concern, the man did not have a trace of warmth in his heart, and he looked at the time display on his phone.

22:06!

In other words, it has been almost two hours since he entered the building!

But the man felt that it had only been five or six minutes.

"Hello? How not to speak! Isn't it inconvenient, it's hot at home, come back early to eat, wait for you! ”

Although the man responded loudly to the female voice on the phone.

But the landlord didn't seem to hear, thinking that it was inconvenient for the man to speak, so he finished talking to himself and hung up the phone.

The endless staircase, the woman in the back, the strange time, the landlord who can't hear the voice, the man sheds a cold sweat.

He turned around, and a glimmer of light shot into the man's eyes, causing the man to squint unconsciously.

How so? Obviously, it wasn't the corridor gate at all before, but behind the man, it was the corridor gate.

A series of strange phenomena made the man's spirit tense, and he didn't dare to go any further, so he called and wanted the landlord to come down and pick him up.

"Hey, Hui Ying, please come down and pick me up, huh? Yes, yes, I was too tired to work overtime today. ”

On the phone, the woman laughed at the man's physical strength, and quickly agreed to pick him up.

Not long after, a woman in pajamas walked out of the door and saw the landlord, and the man's tense spirit breathed a sigh of relief.

"Go, go, go home."

The landlord was puzzled by the man's gesture of being in such a hurry to go home, but the man did not say what he had just experienced, but wanted to get home as soon as possible.

This time, in the company of the landlord, nothing strange happened, passing by the fourth floor, the man saw a cigarette butt lying quietly on the ground.

As if encountering a flood beast, the man avoided the cigarette butt and pulled the landlord to speed up his pace.

When he arrived at home, after closing the door, under the warm light of the living room, the man slowly sat on the ground, gasping for breath and constantly breaking out in a cold sweat.

The woman kept asking what was going on, but the man kept silent, signaling that he had no appetite and went into the bathroom.

After taking a shower, the man found that the lights in the living room had long been turned off and the landlord's bedroom was still on.

The next day.

Under the careful tidying up of the landlord, the man seemed to forget what happened yesterday, and after a while of getting tired of the landlord, he was refreshed and ready to go to work.

Walking in the corridor, the man still had a palpitation and quickened his pace.

Soon he walked out into the street, and as usual, the man took out his wallet, ready to take a look at the pictures in it.

"Perhaps, this is the last look." The man muttered as he reflected on what had happened last night.

But the girl in the photo has disappeared! Only an eerie black shadow remains.

"If you dare to like someone else, I'll come out of the picture!"

The girl's words suddenly echoed in the man's ears, and the man's pupils continued to dilate, and he turned his head and ran home without looking back.

When the man returned home panting, he found that it was too late, and blood was splattered at the bedroom door.

He walked into the landlord's bedroom, leaving behind only a headless corpse in his pajamas.

The landlord died in the bedroom, his head cut off.

The man trembled and took out the photo in his wallet again, staring at the photo with horrified eyes.

Her silhouette is back in the picture, holding the landlord's head and ...... Own head!

In addition, he remembered what yesterday's back was, it was her back.

It turned out that he was dead a long time ago......
