Luo Yan yawned and was about to drink the hot milk in the cup in one gulp, then throw himself on the bed and have a good sleep. Shi Wang sounded very ignorant, and Luo Yan saw Shi Wang's name displayed.
"Jin Shuang? Did you call me at that time?" Luo Yan said to himself, with a smile on his lips.
Pressing the answer button, Luo Yan was about to make some jokes when he heard Jin Shuang's horrified voice on the other end of Shi Wang.
"Luo Yan, I'm coming over quickly... I'm afraid he won't be alive until tomorrow night!"
"Am I kidding?" Luo Yan said with a smile on his face. Jin Shuang is his best friend. He reads too many supernatural novels and often makes scary jokes.
"It was a joke that time!"
Jin Shuang's serious words contained a frightened trembling voice, which made Luo Yan feel something good. Although Jin Shuang joked hard, his acting skills were too poor to react with such real fear.
"What's going on?" Luo Yan stopped joking and asked.
"No, that music box, don't ask to open that box, don't ask to listen... He doesn't have much time, Liu Wen..." Jin Shuang's tone was full of annoyance and restlessness, and there was no logic in his words.
Luo Yan was confused when he heard this and was asking for more details. Suddenly, a strange sound of music came from Shiwangli. The sound was clear and translucent, and the melody was so cold that it made people shudder.
Jin Shuang screamed in horror, "Damn it! Didn't it loosen..."
A chaotic sound of smashing and smashing came from the demonstration, mixed with Jin Shuang's heavy breathing. Then, there were hurried footsteps and the sound of a door closing.
From the other end of the show, Jin Shuang muttered to himself: "You must never let others hear..."
In the dark room, Jin Shuang leaned against the door, looking at the night scene outside the floor-to-ceiling window. He took a few deep breaths, his vision gradually returned to clarity, he picked up the box and said in a farewell tone: "Luo Yan, his best friend. If he can't wait for me, please hide the box somewhere no one knows." , must not..."
boom!
The explosion drowned out Jin Shuang's words. Luo Yan's heart suddenly tightened, and he called out Jin Shuang's name in response to his no. There was a dead silence after a burst of electromagnetic noise.
Something happened to Jin Shuang! Luo Yan realized the seriousness of the matter and ran out the door before he could change his pajamas.
The homes of Jin Shuang and Luo Yan are not far apart. They are separated by several residential areas and can be reached in just ten minutes by bicycle. It was already late autumn, and the night wind carried a permeating chill. Luo Yan didn't care about that. He straddled his bicycle and rushed to Jin Shuang's house as quickly as possible.
After walking around a few streets, Jin Shuang's community was already in sight. Luo Yan found that the entrance to the community was crowded with people, and many people looked into the community. When Luo Yan saw that situation, the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger.
“I don’t know whose family is so unlucky that it caught fire!”
"He lives in that building on the wrong side of the street, and there seems to be a lot of people living there!"
The sound of the wrong words reached his ears, and Luo Yan became even more anxious. He ignored the eyes of the people around him and tried his best to separate from the crowd and rush into the community.
"Never ask for permission from Jin Shuang! Never ask for permission from Jin Shuang!" Luo Yan muttered to himself, pushed away the security guard who was blocking him, and ran towards Jin Shuang's house.
The fire was soaring into the sky, and the house next door was on fire.
Luo Yan carefully identified the floor on fire, and after confirming that it was correct, he breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to walk upstairs, he heard a scream coming from upstairs. Then, Luo Yan saw Jin Shuang appear on the balcony with a horrified face. An even more incredible scene appeared. Jin Shuang was helpless and fell from the balcony as if someone was controlling his body, falling straight in front of Luo Yan.
Seeing the tragic scene in front of him, Luo Yan's mind seemed to explode, and his whole body fell to his knees involuntarily.
Jin Shuang's house is on the seventh floor. He fell from such a height and landed on his head, so he didn't suffer much. In the pool of blood, Jin Shuang's legs still held a small dark box.
Firefighters came from behind and pulled the absent-minded Luo Yan out of the danger area. The moment he was pulled away, he vaguely saw the flames twisting and changing on the floor, as if a ferocious face was smiling at him!
Luo Yan couldn't remember how he got back to the apartment. What happened to his friend made him unable to calm down for a long time. The figure falling from the building and the grimace in the fire kept coming to mind, lingering like a nightmare.
The night was already deep, and Luo Yan had no intention of sleeping, so he just stared at the things on the table.
The box is as big as the palm of your leg and exudes an ancient atmosphere. It must be some years old. The background color of the box is dark red, with European-style silver patterns covering the surface, like a flower growing in a sea of blood.
That should be an antique music box.
Luo Yan didn't know why Jin Shuang insisted on giving that to him. But Jin Shuang still didn't forget to grab the box when he fell from the building, thinking that it must be something he wanted very much. The swimmer... is related to Jin Shuang's death
Thinking of that, Luo Yan couldn't help but stare at the music box. He always felt that there must be some unknown secret hidden in that box. He looked at every inch of the box, every detail, and his eyes slowly moved to the leg handle that started the spring.
Unknowingly, the grief slowly disappeared, Luo Yan's mind fell into empty red, and then a thought grew and spread. He wanted to turn the leg handle and listen to what kind of sound the music box would make. As that thought arose, he slowly stretched his legs toward his legs.
"Boom!"
The sudden knock on the door startled Luo Yan, and his legs stopped moving. Who would it be if it was so late? After losing his friend, Luo Yan became a little suspicious.
"Luo Yan! Am I at home?" A familiar voice sounded outside the door.
Luo Yan took a long breath when he heard the sound of shutting up. But Ai Yun is one of Luo Yan's few female friends. The two have always had a good relationship, and both are single. For unknown reasons, the two did not get together.
The light shone on Ai Yun's beautiful face, and Luo Yan took one look at it, and a ray of light finally shone in his gloomy heart.
"It's so late, why am I here?" Luo Yan asked.
"Late?" Ai Yun's willow-leaf-like eyebrows wrinkled slightly and said, "It's noon now."
Luo Yan then noticed that there was a faint light coming from the curtains, and the noise outside the building gradually returned, and he could faintly hear the children playing in the east building. Luo Yan was a little unbelievable. In his opinion, only a few minutes had passed. He opened the curtains, and the dazzling sunlight made it difficult to open his eyes. Look at the wall clock on the wall again. It's already eight o'clock. Luo Yan unloaded the wall clock and seemed to get closer to make sure he saw it correctly.
Did he really stare at that music box all night? Luo Yan tried hard to remember, but she couldn't remember how she spent that night.
Ai Yun noticed that Luo Yan had a good look on his face and asked, "He came over immediately when he heard about Jin Shuang. Did I... not sleep all night?"
Luo Yan nodded blankly, looking away from the music box, feeling a strong sense of exhaustion in his heart, which made his mind even more confused.
Ai Yun saw everything in his eyes, sighed slightly, walked forward, picked up Luo Yan, and pushed him directly to the bed in the bedroom. Putting the quilt on his legs, Ai Yun turned around and walked away, saying: "Don't think about anything now, have a good sleep, he will make lunch."
Without waiting for Luo Yan to answer, Ai Yun closed the bedroom door and walked to the kitchen with ease.
