Mr. Huo, stop being abusive. Miss Fu is going on a blind date again.

The car started and slowly drove out of the community. The road was blocked by a barrier at the door. The machine prompted the car to park for one hour for a fee of five yuan.

It turned out to be a parking fee.

The man lowered the car window, revealing the face of a middle-aged man. He took out his mobile phone and scanned the QR code next to him, and five yuan automatically slid away.

It was already two o'clock in the morning. The doorman glanced subconsciously and saw that he looked familiar. He was a resident here.

The other party had already retracted his hand, and he only caught a glimpse of the hand's skin being very white but very thin, as if he hadn't eaten enough.

After paying the parking fee, the gate pole was raised, the car drove out, the right direction light was turned on, and headed south along the road with tall street lights until the car passed through a busy city, and the flow of people and traffic decreased further. .

The man parked his car on the side of the road, took a bottle of water from the storage box, unscrewed the cap and put it to his mouth.

But suddenly he realized that the human skin mask on his face was too much of a hindrance. He moved the water bottle away and tore off the left lower jaw a few times with his other hand. Then he tore off the entire human skin mask and threw it aside.

He leaned back in the chair, his thin chest rising and falling slightly.

The cold light of the street lamp shined into the car, and the man's moon-like face was looming between the light and the shadow. After drinking the water, he lowered the window, stuffed the human skin mask into the water bottle, and threw it into the trash can on the roadside. inside.

At this time, sanitation workers had already started working. Not far away, a garbage truck slowly drove over. Before dawn, the water bottle and its contents would be sent to the garbage transfer station like other garbage.

The car continued to start and drove south, passing tunnels and gas stations, and then fewer and fewer buildings. It passed an abandoned park and a deserted area, and the sound of cats was faintly heard in the mist.

The car disappeared into the mist, and after a while, a luxury car that was completely different from the previous one drove out from the other side of the mist.

Finally, the car parked outside a villa in the suburbs.

It was dark in the villa at the moment. This villa area was originally an unfinished building. Later, the government took over and residents began to move in. However, because the original selling price was too high, there are still many vacant rooms today.

In the dark and humid cellar, Cao Man woke up from the cold again. Although it was late spring in Nancheng, this place was airtight and humid. It was so cold that her bones ached. The sound of dripping water came from nowhere. .

Suddenly she heard familiar footsteps again, tapping into her ears.

She was like a frightened bird, huddled in the corner and shivering, with a look of horror in her eyes, her bloodshot eyes staring in the direction of the door.

Although she couldn't see it, she knew that the door was there, and the man would appear from there in a moment.

A huge light lit up at the end of the darkness.

As the halo continued to grow, the blood all over Cao Man's body slowly solidified, making her tremble with coldness and her teeth chattered.

With a clang, the door lock was unlocked, and the light from the red candle suddenly filled the entire space.

Cao Man looked at the handsome face and opened her mouth to scream, but she couldn't make a sound. This man didn't know what he drank for her. Her voice became hoarse and she couldn't speak.

The man kicked the chains that bound her, then knelt down in front of her and placed a piece of bread and a glass of milk in front of her.

"Eat."

Cao Man stared at the two things with a pale face. She didn't know how long she had been imprisoned, and she didn't know whether it was day or night. It always felt like it was very long, and time stopped at this place.

She was hungry, so hungry that stars appeared in her eyes. From the time she was imprisoned until now, she had eaten nothing except the man who forced her to drink a glass of water.

But she didn't dare to eat.

Last time it was a potion that poisoned her. She didn't know what it would be this time. Could it directly kill her?

She didn't dare to move. She wanted to live and get out alive.

The man seemed to notice her concerns and chuckled: "I won't kill you, just eat it."

His voice seemed to be able to confuse people. Even in the most frightened situation, Cao Man still believed in him and frantically grabbed the bread on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth.

The man smiled with satisfaction, raised his hand, and patted her head gently, like soothing a small domestic animal.

He said softly: "I won't kill you so soon."

Cao Man stuffed bread into his mouth and paused.

The light of the red candle danced in her eyes, but her eyes were like abyss, only black, endless black, without any light at all.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she could not make a sound. She could only make begging movements with her body, and the bread and milk were scattered on the floor.

The man looked at it with disgust, stood up, took a step back, and said regretfully: "It's such a shame about the food."

Without looking at Cao Man again, he picked up the red candle on the table, turned and left the cellar.

The light disappeared completely, and Cao Man shook the iron chain on her body. She tried to cry out, but after struggling for a long time, she could only make a whimpering sound, and she seemed to merge into the darkness in the invisible space.

……

an hour ago.

Huo Minzheng sat in front of Fu Yan, still holding her arm. After listening to her words, he pondered for a few seconds, "Yan Yan, I haven't been here in the past few nights."

He knew that he couldn't push Fu Yan too hard, so he didn't come to her too often.

Qin Heng teased him, saying that he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't see Fu Yan for a day, and he would feel uncomfortable if he saw Fu Yan for a day.

Fu Yan didn't say anything he wanted to hear, but despite this, he still wanted to see her.

Fu Yan frowned and murmured, "Am I really dreaming?"

Huo Minzheng's eyes narrowed. He knew that Fu Yan had many dreams. There were times before when dreams and reality could not be distinguished, but mostly in the middle of the night.

Once when he was sleeping, he noticed that someone had punched him in the chest. He woke up, grabbed her little fist and pressed it against her chest, questioning her.

She refused to tell him until she was pestered by him, so she embarrassedly said that she dreamed that he was with another woman.

She was caught in a nightmare and couldn't tell the difference between reality and dreams. She thought that since it was a dream, she could do whatever she wanted in the dream, so she simply punched him to relieve her anger, but she didn't expect that she actually hit him.

But the situation seems different from the current situation.

Huo Minzheng took advantage of her distraction and got a little closer to her, wrapping his arms around her weakly, "What did you dream about?"

Fu Yan couldn't describe the feeling, but he still told Huo Mingzheng, "I felt someone touching my face, and I seemed to hear someone calling my name. Maybe I've been too tired recently. Doctor Cheng said that people with insufficient energy are prone to Nightmare."

"Well," Huo Minzheng came closer and looked down at her face, "Have you watched any horror movies recently?"

Fu Yan subconsciously replied to him, somewhat well-behaved for some reason, "Since I broke up with you..."

The words on her lips stopped abruptly.
