The hoodoo spoke to itself again in the shadows. Don't even try to answer, or even turn around to look for it – it's snooping on you not far away.

It was the hot summer of September 2011, the birthday of Nightmare.

"Do you want me to take you to the bus station?"

"No...... I've been there so many times, and I know the way. ”

"No, you're a girl by yourself—"

"Oh, you're a girl too, see you next week."

"Alas, you're really a stupid girl......"

"Hmm." She smiled.

The iron door with "safe entry and exit" closed with a "snap", and the girl outside the door shrugged her shoulders, perhaps because her mind was relaxed, and the guitar she was carrying didn't feel too heavy.

The endless night, the hanging points of light, the faint grass.

It turns out that there is a place to breathe in the midst of urban troubles.

A first-year university student, she walked slowly along a quiet path on Jinshang Road, looking at her watch: 21:49. She told her parents that she went back to the university dormitory to pack her things and returned to the home of the online teacher later, but in fact she secretly came to Jinshang Road to watch the stars and play the guitar.

Youthful, despite the long journey home.

Jinshang Road is a suburb that has developed rapidly in recent years, and since the transportation facilities have become more and more mature, more and more people in the steel forest yearn for the tranquility of this pure land based on the beautiful landscape.

"It's just a little bit before we can meet again......"

The girl hummed leisurely and stepped on the still flat concrete road. It is said to be "fairly flat", but many of the newly opened roads in the vicinity are also unpaved, and some are even full of cracks and weeds, making it difficult to set foot in.

Since there are people living in noble detached houses, and the roads are carefully paved and maintained, at a cursory glance, it is actually similar to Nine Dragons Tong, and the difference may lie in the extinct Xinghai in the city.

Stepping into Jinshang Road at 10 o'clock, the road is deserted. The girls had to go home one after another, and the lonely night watchmen said goodbye to the lonely night watchman one after another.

The gorgeous marble brand of "Tianlongju" escaped from sight, and the original faint sense of tranquility disappeared.

After turning into the dimly lit alleyway, the girl gradually felt a hint of unease. Perhaps, walking alone in the dark night of the suburban city, the silence of the night always gives people a sense of discomfort.

The small houses lining the street are dilapidated, the white bricks of the facades covered in dirt, and some of them covered in rampant vines. The small houses on both sides of the street were not lit, but the dark end was her destination......

The street beneath my feet is like a world that does not belong to the living, and the feeling of oppression comes to an abrupt halt. The girl, who had a good sense of direction, clearly remembered that she still had to walk for about 10 minutes to reach the bus stop on Avenida da Da and take the bus back to the city of Nine Dragons.

The girl who couldn't see her fingers had to turn it on, so the light of the phone shone ahead. The sound of the surrounding grass swaying scared her, perhaps causing the girl to have an ominous instinct that someone was following her. In fact, this sense of unease has been building up for two weeks...... Perhaps, it shouldn't be a girl alone, but this time it's a little less cautious

"Woo-huh...... Woo-huh......"

The girl was stunned, her face turned pale, and if it wasn't for the shock that caused her mind to go blank, she would have screamed. With sweaty hands, she froze in place and covered her mouth.

Be...... Auditory hallucinations? The girl tried her best to calm down, but the strangeness ahead did not fade.

"Woo-huh...... Woo-huh......"

In front of the quiet street, there was a faint wail, faint but poignant.

The man seemed to be crying profusely...... It's like full of grief...... Due to the lack of street lighting, she couldn't see the person crying in front of her, but when she looked around, she could only see a metal sign placed next to her:

"DXN Real Estate, Rent Enquiry"

A stream of cold water poured over the girl, and if she listened carefully, the weird cry in front of her was actually more like a giggle.

"Woo-huh...... Woo-huh......"

The terrifying idea of a strange clown was born in her mind, and the girl who was suddenly lost subconsciously turned off the light source of her mobile phone, and the idea of retreating gradually arose in the dark.

The question that haunted the girl at this time was: Do you want to move forward?

In fact, the bus stop was in front of her, and she didn't know there was any other way to the station. If she was afraid of the inexplicable cry ahead, she could have turned around and ran back to her friend's house for the night, but she was stubborn and never did such a cowardly thing......

"Woo-huh...... Woo-huh......"

One step forward, half a minute, half a liter of courage. The slow footsteps seemed strange in the silent night, and the strange crying ensemble played an indescribably eerie movement......

With each further step, the strange cry became clearer, and the girl gradually realized that the strange noise did not come from the ground......

"Woo-huh...... Woo-huh......"

Come on...... It's okay...... It's all right

The crying was no longer ahead, and the girl did not meet anyone in the middle of the road.

Because, the voice is on his left side

"It's you...... No...... It's you...... Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......"

She got goosebumps...... Is that a conversation? The voice came from the same person...... Talk to oneself......

The girl hesitated for a moment, and finally turned her head to the left, but she couldn't see clearly in the darkness...... It seemed to be the outline of an abandoned house, and there was a burst of inexplicable muttering from the direction of the first floor of the house.

The girl stepped back, but her slender body touched a metal sign next to her

"DXN Real Estate, Rent Enquiry"

Wheezing became the girl's only reaction, and she was sure she was in dire straits.

The village house where the cry came from in front of me was a vacant property waiting to be rented...... There shouldn't be anyone late at night......

There shouldn't be anyone.

"Woo-huh...... "Because it was like a cry in a state of aphrasia, mixed with rapid panting, the girl couldn't tell the gender of the vocalizer............

In the middle of the night, the eerie wails coming from the uninhabited side streets are trembling to the extreme, let alone from outside the abandoned empty houses......

The originally relaxed mood suddenly retreated, turning into a sea of turbulent mysteries.

Should I just run to the bus stop? Or should it be ......

The girl who fell into the difficulty of choosing unconsciously touched the screen of her mobile phone, and the faint light illuminated the abandoned house in front of her......

The crying stopped, and the girl just heard a fast heartbeat.

On the terrace on the first floor, a man with a strange posture and a pair of godless eyes stared at her.

In the dim light, the girl could not look at the man's clothes, but could only vaguely witness his posture......

She swallowed, quickly turned off the lights and quickened her pace towards the end of the path......

A strange man, on the first-floor terrace of an abandoned house, sat on a folding chair with his hands and feet spread, his limbs twitching, his head tilted upward, under the light, like ...... It's like......

It's like a madman who tortures and kills passers-by in the middle of the night.

The crazy man had been hiding in a dark and uninhabited corner, spying on people passing by in the middle of the night......

Or, just snooping on her.

Wheezing incessantly......

The girl suffers from severe asthma, which can cause difficulty breathing if she steps too quickly, but at the moment she can't stop and doesn't dare to look back......

The stranger pose...... It's like the evil spirit

"Smack!"

She was on the verge of collapse, but her hurried footsteps suddenly stopped.

Maybe because she has watched a lot of supernatural shows since she was a child, the girl absolutely believes that the voice just now is not caused by something good...... That's like

"Smack!"

In the quiet and weird, the frightened girl didn't dare to look back, feeling the rapid heartbeat. This time, it's louder...... What's going on...... She regretted that she had missed the opportunity to take refuge in her friend's house, because the crazy weirdo was behind her......

The pale-faced girl was panting, and her mind went blank. She could have made a sprint to the bus stop as quickly as possible, but the bus usually had to wait for at least ten minutes, and even if she was lucky enough to run down the main road, she could face the danger of being chased by men.

What kind of picture is behind it, the girl can't imagine.

"Woo-woo-woo...... Woo-woo-woo-woo......" There was another cry from behind, but this time it was more rapid, and the voice resounded throughout the street......

Suddenly, there was a faint sound of friction behind him...... If you listen closely, you can tell that it is coming from the ground several meters behind......

The girl finally clenched her fists and looked back

"It's you...... It's you ......."

The man, lying on the ground, called hoarsely at the girl, with a complaining expression and a faint voice. Just now, he fell from the terrace, but there was no damage......

The girl was ready to run away, because the person lying on the ground in front of her was a sheer madman

"It's not me......" The pale-faced man suddenly curled up and cried, his limbs twisted continuously, and there was a "gurgling" joint sound, his waist twisted like a monster, and there was a strong body odor......

God, this is not human at all...... The words of his mouth meant that—

"Definitely you! Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......-hee

God, he just ...... In self-talk......

......The laughter grew more and more eerie, and the man twitched and writhed like a centipede......

The frightened girl turned around and walked quickly, but she wanted to run away for fear of alarming the nerves of the strange man in front of her

"It's not me! Not me! Woo-woo-woo...... Woo woo woo ...... "The man suddenly hugged his head and howled, and his voice was hoarse and he was talking to himself like a mentally torn madman.

The girl's screams resounded everywhere in the empty alley, and she screamed and ran away!

"It's you! It's you! It's you! It's you! The "gurgling" sound of hee......-hee-he

Help me...... Help me......

The girl hurried through the dim and dirty streets, not daring to look back to see if the man had chased after her......

"Beauty, come to see the stars again this week—"

"Close the door and go quickly, quickly!" The girl put the guitar on the seat by the window, and the sound of the guitar bag breaking came out. Out of breath, she hurriedly added, "Thank you, big brother driver!" ”

"Miss, it's three people to the seat—"

"I'll make it up, I'll make it up! Hurry up the driver! The trembling girl took out a green bill and stuffed it into the hands of the middle-aged driver. He received the money, closed the folding door without saying a word, started the engine, and carried the unfilled bus on the avenue of Jinshang Road to Saiyangcai South Street.

"Hum hum ......" The girl who was panting violently peeked into the street through the smudged car window, and sprayed the agonist into her mouth......

On the streets, there is no one to ...... But the weird cry and laughter of "woo-woo-woo" just now echoed in my ears, like a nightmare that never went away.

When you meet someone talking to yourself in the middle of the night, don't pay attention to it......
