The light above my head suddenly flickered and jumped for a moment.
The warm hall, which was originally as bright as day, turned as dark as ink in an instant.
After a few seconds of darkness, the overhead lights came on again.
"Xiao Xin, you are such a worrying child." Li Manyu's voice sounded, and her slender white fingers stretched out in front of Baili Xin, and pushed the pills under Baili Xin's eyelids, "Take the medicine quickly."
This was her third ultimatum.
When Baili Xin raised his hand, a slight surprise flashed in his eyes. He pursed his lips and obediently took the pill, then drank it all with the water that Li Manyu brought.
His Adam's apple rolled twice, and then Baili Xin opened his mouth deliberately to show Li Manyu.
Li Manyu also watched carefully, and only after making sure that the pills were really swallowed did she regain her previous gentleness: "You are so obedient. Go and have a good rest."
"By the way." Li Manyu called him not long after Baili Xin left, "You should open the window at night. The air outside is very clean and the wind is cool. Don't close the room tightly. The air is not circulating, which is bad for your health."
"…" Baili Xin looked at Li Manyu, whose eyebrows were as pretty as a painting and whose smile was gentle, "Okay."
s419m: My dear host, you just...
I didn't move it myself. Baili Xin lowered her head and stared at her toes, her thick eyelashes covering her eyes that were lost in thought. It was this body that raised its hand.
s419m: Transitional plot
Baili Xin: I don’t know, but I didn’t take the medicine.
s419m: But I clearly saw you put it in your mouth.
Baili Xin: When I put it in my mouth, I threw it into my backpack. Li Manyu didn't know that we had space in our backpack, and it looked like she had eaten it to outsiders.
She kept emphasizing that I should take medicine, and I could tell with my toes that there was something wrong with the medicine.
s419m: And her words are exactly the opposite of what Zhang Sao said. Zhang Sao asked you to close the doors and windows, but she asked you to open the windows. It seems that the truth is about to surface, and some people can no longer sit still.
Blissin: …
In the dark and silent night, the clock on the wall ticked rhythmically.
This is a soft and comfortable room.
The wind blew, making the curtains sway gracefully.
The moonlight poured into the room through the open windows. In the middle of the room there was a huge, soft bed. The quilt on the bed was slightly raised, and black hair could be vaguely seen on the top of the quilt.
Time passes by little by little.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Along with violent knocks on the door, there was also the sound of the door being shaken and pushed.
But despite such a loud noise, the person on the bed seemed to be fast asleep and was not awakened at all.
The person on the bed huddled quietly in the quilt, not moving a muscle.
The sound disappeared after a while. A few minutes later, a strange "rustling" sound appeared at the window.
If the owner of this room was awake at this moment, he would definitely scream.
But there is no "if" in this world.
Under the hazy and soft moonlight, a dark shadow slowly appeared through the curtains.
The black shadow had long legs and arms, like a giant spider. It quietly and slowly came to the window from the other side of the wall.
“Squeak—”
The window was gently pushed open, and heavy breathing sounds came into the room from outside the window.
The ghostly black shadow crawled into the room through the window as if no one was around.
It was like a gecko, its soft and boneless body sliding along the windowsill to the carpet, and then began to approach the bed not far away.
As it walked, greedy and terrifying laughter began to emanate from its mouth.
“Hehehe.”
"are you asleep?"
"Are you asleep, my dear child?"
The person on the bed remained motionless.
There was no movement on the bed, and the black shadow seemed to become bolder, crawling a little faster.
At this moment, it was like a slippery loach, crawling to the bed so quickly.
I saw a hand slowly lifting the quilt at the end of the bed, and then the black shadow slipped into the quilt silently as if it was in an empty space.
A strange shape suddenly appeared on the quilt on the big bed.
I saw the bulge sliding in the quilt, getting closer and closer to the sleeping person.
Just as the bulge was about to approach the sleeping person, its body suddenly began to shake wildly under the quilt.
The quilt kept showing the struggle of the dark shadow, and the wailing sound could be heard dimly through the quilt.
Amid the continuous wailing, the dark shadow under the quilt gradually became motionless.
In the darkness, a slender white hand stretched out from under the quilt, pinched the edge of the quilt and quickly lifted it up.
There was no one sleeping soundly under the quilt. There was clearly only a handsome young man with clear and bright eyes.
The young man was neatly dressed, holding the bed with one hand and holding an extremely sharp dagger in the other.
The bed was stained with a pool of unknown black liquid.
Baili Xin turned on the light and looked at the bed expressionlessly.
As the lights came on, the dim room finally became bright.
The blurry black shadow could finally be seen clearly.
It was a pool of somewhat sticky black liquid, which was being absorbed by the bed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Baili Xin rushed to the window in an instant and saw a black shadow climbing the wall quickly in the night, crawling flexibly towards the distance.
It quickly arrived in front of a room and quickly climbed into the room through the window.
If I'm not mistaken, that should be Da Zhuang's room.
Baili Xin glanced coldly at the black liquid on the bed, quickly pushed the door open and came to Dazhuang's door.
After knocking on the door several times, Da Zhuang's sleepy voice soon rang out from inside: "Who is it?"
Baili Xin: "It's me, open the door."
Da Zhuang's voice disappeared for a long time before it sounded again, "Ah, is there something wrong? I'm going to bed, how about we talk about it tomorrow?"
"Are you okay? Is there anything strange in your room?" Baili Xin moved closer to the door and could vaguely hear the sound of fabric being fumbled, followed by the sound of "pa pa pa" footsteps.
At this time, Da Zhuang's voice was only separated from the door, but he did not seem to have any intention of opening the door. He just answered Baili Xin from the other side of the door: "No, there is nothing strange. I am the only one in this room. There is no one else here."
Baili Xin looked down at the crack in the door. The light passed through the crack into the corridor, and two dark shadows blocked part of the light.
Baili Xin, "You were awake just now."
"It's so late now, I must have fallen asleep." Da Zhuang sounded guilty and his voice began to stutter.
Baili Xin: "Did you see anything crawling in through the window just now?"
Da Zhuang: "There is nothing there. Can you please stop playing tricks on me? It's really annoying. It's so late. Can you please let me sleep peacefully? Please."
Baili Xin lowered his chin slightly, his eyes falling on the two dark shadows.
I saw one of the black shadows slowly moving towards the other, and soon the two black shadows overlapped into one.
The lingering sound of water was heard, and Da Zhuang's slightly heavy breathing came into Baili Xin's ears through the crack in the door. "I really don't have anything here. I'm fine. Thank you for your relationship. You should go back to sleep as well."
…
Inside the room, two figures were entangled against the door.
The woman's arms were like two soft, boneless snakes, moving freely on the man's body.
Hearing the sound of footsteps gradually fading away outside, Da Zhuang finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the woman in front of him with some fear.
"Sister Manyu, did Baili Xin discover something, so he came here specially?"
Li Manyu leaned against Dazhuang, "This is my home. I'm not afraid, so why are you afraid? You're so tall for nothing. You're just a coward. If the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you. Why don't you serve me now? Don't you want investment sponsorship anymore?"
Da Zhuang took a breath of cold air and his face turned red instantly.
Li Manyu's hands seemed to have some magical power, and wherever they went, they could ignite a blazing fire on him.
He knew Baili Xin and was considered a friend of Baili Xin.
Now my friend's mother is seducing me in my arms.
Just now, Baili Xin almost came over and discovered their affair.
At this moment, a sense of immoral pleasure rushed straight to my head.
Da Zhuang immediately held Li Manyu in his arms...
Baili Xin returned to the room and stood silently beside the bed.
He did catch the black shadow and stabbed it just now.
But at the last moment, the grip in his hand suddenly disappeared and it escaped from his hand.
Following the route that the black shadow took, he happened to run into the scene of Li Manyu and Da Zhuang's affair.
The black liquid has been completely absorbed by the bed surface, and half of the sheet has turned black, which is weird and strange.
It was already one o'clock in the morning. Today he did not hear the same screams as yesterday, but there was still a knock on the door.
Since he couldn't sleep, he might as well go out for a walk at night and see what kind of supernatural things there were in this house.
The surveillance camera overhead was flashing a subtle red light.
Baili Xin put on a coat and left the room.
The first stop was the empty room next door that was said to be empty.
The lock of this room is a very traditional round door handle with a recessed lock. Although Mrs. Zhang said that the key is in Fei Yinuo's hand, who said that a key must be used to unlock the door
He may not be able to unlock the combination lock, but this most traditional lock can be solved with the most primitive black technology.
Baili Xin calmly took out a piece of wire from his backpack, bent the thin wire a few times and stuffed it into the lock. After just a few seconds, there was a clear "click" sound and the locked door was opened.
The room was pitch black, Baili Xin took out a flashlight from his backpack and turned it on. The moment the flashlight came on, his body froze.
At the end of the flashlight, there was a long row of sofas. The sofas were facing away from me, but from the back of the sofas, it seemed as if there was a head standing there.
Baili Xin held his breath and looked at the head carefully.
The head stood there motionless, without any response.
After thinking for two seconds, Baili Xin tiptoed towards the sofa.
He slowly walked around the back of the sofa and came to the front of it.
He finally saw the appearance of the owner of this head.
Ahhh!!! Ghost!!! S419m screamed in his mind, I am so scared, host!
Blissin: …
I wasn't scared to death by this head, you almost scared me to death.
The light fell accurately on the face of the head, and a skull head appeared in Baili Xin's sight without any cover.
This is a person who has been dead for who knows how long.
He sat steadily on the sofa, his skeleton-like body still wearing tattered clothes.
His skin had long gone, leaving only white bones, but his hair was still a mess covering his head.
The skeleton sat upright, its dark eyes staring straight ahead.
Baili Xin moved the flashlight around and landed it where the skeleton was looking.
There was not a wall there, but a piece of glass.
Under the illumination of light, the scene on the other side of the glass is clearly revealed.
Clean white tiles.
Clean bathtub.
Neat shower shelf.
Across the glass is Baili Xin's bathroom.
Baili Xin looked at the bathroom, then turned to look at the shabby long sofa and the unidentified skeleton on the sofa, and then he looked at the bathroom again.
He still doesn't know the identity of this skeleton.
But judging from the current situation, there is at least one person who has some perverted thoughts and is sitting on the sofa looking at the original owner on the other side of the glass.
The skeleton was in a comfortable pose, with his legs crossed and his arms relaxed at his sides.
At this moment, the audience seems to be the superior outside the beast cage, the glass is the railing that locks up the beast, and the original owner in the bathroom is the beast that is locked up.
The audience watched the original owner's behavior in the bathroom with a kind of unspeakable arrogance and pleasure.
But who is this skeleton
I originally thought that there were only three strange people in this house, but I didn't expect that there was also a skeleton here.
Judging from the decay of the skeleton, the wear and tear of the sofa, and the dust in the room, the skeleton has been here for a long time. If an ordinary person knew that there was a skeleton in the room next to where they slept for a long time, they would probably scream in fear, but Baili Xin just glanced at it and focused his attention elsewhere.
This room is very empty.
It was empty, with nothing in it except this long row of sofas.
But this does not mean that the room is originally empty. The sofa is slightly tilted, and judging from the position of the sofa, there should be other things in the room.
In such a large room, the sofa should not be placed at an angle.
There was an obvious long mark on the ground, which was located near the sofa. It was the mark left by the sofa when it was dragged after being in one place for a long time.
In addition to this mark, there were many other marks on the floor of the room, but he didn't know what those dragged things were.
Baili Xin glanced down at his feet, and many creepy traces appeared in his eyes one by one.
In addition to the criss-crossing drag lines on the ground, there are also many handprints.
Those were obviously human hand prints, pressed to the ground. Some were pulled into five long thin lines, and some had scratches.
Handprints were all over the place, spreading across this dusty room.
s419m: Ah! Save me, save me, host, turn on the light, turn on the light!
The windows of this room were sealed shut tighter than wooden boards; not a single ray of light could get in.
He searched the wall with a flashlight and soon found the light switch. Baili Xin turned on the switch, and there was a crackling sound of gas and electricity. The light bulb above his head flickered on for a moment, and then went out very unceremoniously.
The light suddenly came on and then went out abruptly, it would be better if it had never come on in the first place.
Baili Xin shone the incandescent bulb above his head, and had to settle for the next best thing and continue observing the room with the faint light of the flashlight.
He started his observation near the sofa and the glass.
There were handprints on the ground, and the walls were not much better. There were patches of black marks on the walls, and in some places Baili Xin could even see some straight marks.
It doesn't look like a temporary scratch because it's too smooth. It's more like something has been leaning against it and left a mark that can't be completely removed.
But even if Baili Xin was a god, he would not be able to guess what was placed here through the vague traces on these planes.
Moving slowly across the room, Baili Xin noticed several holes in the wall.
The hole stretched the wall open, and the mottled wall paint fell off near the hole, revealing the bluish-gray lime wall.
Baili Xin touched the hole with his fingertips. The hole was not deep or big, and it looked like something had been nailed in it before.
As he walked, he came to the window.
The curtains on the windows were removed, and the windows were covered with thick wooden boards and nailed shut. Baili Xin tried to find a crack in the window but failed.
This window is nailed tightly.
Not to mention an ant, not even a beam of light can get through.
There were still traces of some objects being placed in the room, but no matter how many things were in the room before, now there was only the sofa and the skeleton whose identity was unknown.
After looking around the room, Baili Xin backed out of the room quietly and closed the door gently.
The moment he turned around, a pair of dark eyes appeared in front of him without warning.
Baili Xin's heart skipped a beat, and the five fingers holding the flashlight turned white.
He swallowed lightly, stared at the man who appeared silently behind him at some point and said, "Dad, why are you still awake so late?"
The man's eyes were warm, kind and calm during the day, but in the middle of the night, they became lifeless, like a fake person.
Father Fei didn't even close his eyelids, he just slowly moved his eyeballs. His neck didn't even move at all, only his black pupils swayed left and right in his eye sockets.
At that shaking moment, it looked more like the cursed puppet in horror movies that liked to haunt the dark night.
The s419m in his mind was screaming wildly. Baili Xin hid one hand behind his back and secretly took the dagger in his backpack.
After a long time, Father Fei turned around and walked towards the stairs stiffly.
He staggered when he walked, looking like a drunk or sleepy person.
Baili Xin was stunned for a second, then immediately reacted and quickly followed behind Fei's father.
s419mI am going crazy, Master Host, what are you doing! He is so scary, why are you still following him!!! Ah, please, let me go, give me a quick death!
Baili Xin felt a headache because of the noise from s419m. He rubbed his head and thought he was sleepwalking.
s419m: Huh? I see. No wonder he acted as if he didn't see you. So where is he going
Baili Xin: I just didn't know, so I followed him to see what he was going to do.
Baili Xin followed behind Fei's father silently, and saw Fei's father slowly walking down the stairs one step at a time.
Because he was sleepwalking, Mr. Fei moved very slowly.
Baili Xin followed Fei's father patiently all the way to the first floor.
He followed Father Fei to the garden. He saw Father Fei walk to a corner of the garden, then stop, moving his neck left and right, as if he was looking for something.
Soon, he walked towards the rose bushes.
Baili Xin didn't know what he wanted to do, but followed him anyway.
Father Fei came to the rose bush and bent down. He pinched the rose stem with thorns with one hand, and stretched out the other hand in the air, holding it lightly, and swaying it next to the rose stem.
The hand holding the rose stem was already bleeding, but Father Fei felt nothing at all and continued to repeat the same action with an expressionless face.
s419m is confused: Host, what is he doing
Baili Xin: It looks like he is picking flowers. His other hand looks like he is holding a pair of scissors.
s419m: Now that you mention it, it does look very similar.
Father Fei stayed in the garden for more than ten minutes before he stood up. When he stood up, one of his hands was placed on his chest with his palm still clenched, and it seemed that he had picked a large bunch of roses.
Father Fei even bent his head and gently sniffed the non-existent rose before returning to the hall.
Baili Xin glanced at the roses in the garden and continued to follow Fei's father.
Father Fei walked over to the flower pots where Li Manyu was watering the flowers and made a gesture as if he was taking a vase and putting the flowers in it.
Then he placed the "vase" among the flower pots with satisfaction.
s419mTsk tsk twice, I can't tell, Fei's father is still a love-sick seed. Even sleepwalking is picking flowers for Li Manyu, his hands are bleeding but he still has no intention of stopping, what kind of love brain is this? Fei's father is like this, Li Manyu can still have an affair in Fei's father's house, Li Manyu is really amazing.
But Li Manyu is also a master, not only did she tame Fei's father, she also seduced Da Zhuang. But it's true, from the perspective of human aesthetics, Li Manyu is really good-looking and charming. If someone with such conditions really wants to do something, it's easy.
Baili Xin: Sometimes it may not be the appearance that makes people infatuated, but it may also be true love.
s419m: I know this question. Dazhuang is the face, and Fei's father is the true love. I don't believe that Fei's father can't see that Li Manyu and Dazhuang are flirting in front of him. Li Manyu is so blatant, but Fei's father can still tolerate it. This is really true love.
As everyone was talking, Father Fei started moving again.
Baili Xin hurried to catch up and saw Father Fei start walking towards the stairs.
Father Fei came to the second floor and stopped at the stairs. He stretched his neck to look towards the end of the dark corridor on the second floor.
Baili Xin also stopped.
Just when Baili Xin thought that Father Fei was going back to his room, Father Fei suddenly turned around and his face almost touched Baili Xin's face.
Without any warning, the pair of pitch-black eyes met Baili Xin's gaze.
A gloomy gaze stared at him, and at that moment Baili Xin felt as if he was a prey haunted by a vicious ghost.
