Chapter 10: The Only Family
Normal people will definitely be afraid and panic after encountering strange talks, and a momentary error in judgment will lead to death, while Gao Ming belongs to another type of person, he directly predicts the worst-case scenario, and lowers his expectations to the underworld before acting.
2409 Fang Shuqi: "Brother Wang and Xiaoqiu are likely to have suffered misfortune, and our remaining residents may have a glimmer of life only if they unite." I hope Zhao Xi's family can stand up and explain clearly, because Zhao Xi will return to this building, and it must have something to do with you! ”
2304 Li Li: "Although Zhao Xi was picked up, we have always treated Zhao Xi as a family member, but you neighbors, usually see him shouting Brother Zhao in his mouth, but in fact, they don't look down on him at all!" Rumors are spread behind my back, and I am making up things about him and him, do you think I don't know? Zhao Xi was forced to death by you! ”
Li Li's video screen was shaking, and she was very scared when she lived on the third floor, so she directly hugged her child and opened the door of the living room.
The body was on the second floor, and she didn't dare to go down, so she wanted to run upstairs and hide in someone else's house first.
Zhao Xi's adoptive mother followed Li Li, tears sliding down the wrinkles, and the basket she held on her arm was still full of paper money.
"When did you still bring these things? You brought him back! Li Li reprimanded Zhao Xi's adoptive mother, and at this time there was the sound of flesh and blood crawling in the dark corridor, as if several hands were grabbing the steps and jumping up.
Li Li screamed in fright, she couldn't care about the old lady, and she didn't care about the video, so she ran away.
The picture is shaky, and nothing can be seen clearly.
2409 Fang Shuqi: "Li Li, you don't even care about your mother-in-law?" ”
2501 Huang Mingming: "It's better for us to hide on the top floor and get together to figure out a way, it's not safe to stay in the room by ourselves anyway." ”
2607 Jiaqi: "No! It's not a good idea to hide upstairs, sooner or later you'll be found by corpses! ”
2707 Yao Yuan: "My house is the farthest away from the corridor, let's come to my house first." ”
2409 Fang Shuqi: "Teacher Yao? You're cured? ”
Seeing Yao Yuan who spoke in the video, Fang Shuqi and several other neighbors were particularly shocked, Yao Yuan is over 70 years old this year, retired as a teacher at the police academy, a model of anti-pickpocketing, can pick locks, can fight, knows all kinds of fraud methods, and has excellent physical fitness. But two years ago, he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, and many people in Lijing Apartment knew about it, Teacher Yao, who was once tall and burly, lost his weight in two years, and could only sit in a wheelchair, unable to speak, and had difficulty eating.
"I ......" the old man pursed his lips and smiled bitterly: "I don't know why this happened, I gave up treatment three months ago, waited at home to die, and could barely get out of bed." But just tonight, I felt like I was completely cured. Not only did I feel no pain, but my body was back to its best. ”
Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, the old man silently took off his shirt on the mobile phone, his skin was similar to that of a dead man, white and bloodless, and there were a large number of black blood vessels bulging in his chest and abdomen, as if he wanted to break his body and merge with the world: "I really don't know why I became like this, but I'm very conscious, I'm still me." ”
No one spoke in the group video, and the neighbors unconsciously showed fear and disgust when they saw Mr. Yao's body in the video, and their eyes also made Mr. Yao very uncomfortable.
Putting on his coat, Mr. Yao has been through a lot of things, and he knows that it is useless to say anything now, and he no longer proposes to let everyone hide in his house.
The neighbors didn't believe Mr. Yao, but Gao Ming was an exception, he had seen the replaced parents, and those "unknown" beings could be changed as if they were real people, and they would not leave such obvious flaws at all.
"According to the information revealed on the back of the posthumous photo, people who are dying can also enter the game, does Mr. Yao belong to this category?"
All the normal neighbors in the group video made Gao Ming feel a little wrong, but it was Mr. Yao who looked at the biggest problem that made Gao Ming feel kind.
"If there are ghosts in the neighbors who are normal in appearance, they should direct their malice to the real living and let the living kill the living."
Grabbing the doorknob, Gao Ming wanted to leave Zhao Xi's room before his death and go to Mr. Yao in person.
Gao Ming's idea was very good, but as soon as he opened the door a crack, he heard hurried footsteps, which seemed to be Li Li just passing by from the fifth floor with her son in her arms.
"Do you want to tie up their mother and son?" Gao Ming leaned his back against the door: "This is the easiest way to determine the identity of a neighbor. ”
After only half a second of hesitation, Gao Ming was ready to put his ideas into action, and Li Li and her son were "alone", which was a rare opportunity.
"Group video helps me understand what other neighbors are doing, but it also puts me under their watchful eye and what I'm going to do next isn't very suitable for them to see."
Covering the camera, Gao Ming pushed open the living room door and entered the hallway.
He chased as fast as he could, but he didn't see Li Li until he ran to the seventh floor.
"There's a problem! Li Li is holding a child, even if she sets off a few seconds earlier than me, it is impossible to come to the seventh floor faster than me! ”
There was a faint rancid smell in the air, and he looked downstairs, where the floors below were pitch black, lifeless, and quiet as if Zhao Xi had been killed.
"It's not really all ghosts, are they?"
There was a sound of quarrel on the phone, Gao Ming quickly turned down the volume, and he hid in the corner to check.
2409 Fang Shuqi: "I can't get out!" Zhao Xi is right outside my door, it's really back! ”
Residents on the fourth floor sent a video in a group chat that was captured by surveillance cameras in front of his house.
In the black-and-white picture, Zhao Xi, whose limbs are twisted, squirms on the steps, his face rubbing against the ground, his broken neck hanging on his shoulders.
Zhao Xi in the picture seemed to sense something, his head was raised slightly, he showed a weird smile at the monitoring probe, and then hit his head against the door of 2409 one by one.
Just looking at the surveillance video, the neighbors felt cold hands and feet, not to mention Fang Shuqi, who was trapped in the house.
His arm holding up his phone shook more violently, and he let out a scream as the ninth knock sounded.
Then the sound of breaking glass reached the ears of all the residents, and the video screen was blurry and rotated, until the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground again appeared in the community.
"Bang!"
The mobile phone that was clutched in the palm of his hand until he died slid down, and the camera was attached to Fang Shuqi's tragic face, he seemed to have been pushed down from the fourth floor, and his death was exactly the same as Zhao Xi.
The video was stained red with blood, and Gao Ming was also startled, he endured the discomfort, ran to the end of the corridor on the seventh floor, smashed the closed window, and looked out.
"Sure enough!"
In the video, Fang Shuqi died tragically downstairs, but Gao Ming looked downstairs, except for a pool of blood at the entrance of the stairs, there was no body to see at all!
The neighbors seem to exist only in the video, and they seem to be deliberately trying to create a terrifying atmosphere.
"There's a problem with the video! These neighbors who dial the video also have problems! It is possible that the mobile phone left by Zhao Xi in the room was deliberately left by the 'ghost'! ”
A blood vessel bulged from the center of his eyebrows, if Gao Ming couldn't clear this game as soon as possible, his fate was estimated to be ten times more miserable than Fang Shuqi.
In reality, Zhao Xi's mobile phone would definitely not be thrown in the house like that. After he committed suicide, his vampire adoptive mother and brother-in-law estimated that they would find a way to get all of Zhao Xi's money. After all, in the room rented by Xuan Wen, only the most rudimentary furniture remained, and it was obviously looted. ”
Covering the camera and looking at the phone that belonged to the deceased, he remembered the work he had done a few years ago when he helped Wei Dayou participate in a game competition, "The Only Family".
The male protagonist of the game is a middle-aged waste wood uncle.,But he has a gentle and beautiful wife.,Smart and well-behaved daughter.,Parents who love him very much.,He often uses his mobile phone to video his family.,All the contact between him and his family is through mobile phones.,Until one day he saw a woman on the street who looked very similar to his wife.。
He rushes over to hug each other, but the woman hides in the arms of other men, the player begins to investigate the truth from his perspective, and finally discovers that everything he has is a fiction of a mobile phone, his life is full of despair, dark and terrible, he fantasizes about other people's wives and children as his own, in fact, his biological parents have cut ties with him, and his only family is the dilapidated mobile phone.
In fact, he is the biggest villain, he personally lifted his layers of disguise and exposed that dirty heart in front of everyone.
At the end of the game, there are three endings: the uncle finds the lost diary and medicine, which is actually the fifth time he has come to his senses, but then he swallows the medicine again, and chooses to live in fantasy for the sixth time; The good ending is that the uncle destroyed his mobile phone with his own hands, got out of the illusion, and decided to be a new person, he worked hard to get rid of all his bad habits and reconcile with his parents; The last ending is a bit scary, the uncle is crazy, he treats the phone as a real family, and dies with the phone, and the phone is picked up by a bullying kid behind it.
