Chapter11

Houses where no one lives are always haunted, and dark and unknown places are often scary.Who knows what monsters might stalk the unseen places?Maybe they are hiding in a corner in this darkness at this moment, quietly observing your every move.

Li Youmei followed behind Yin Zhongyu, and the two of them tiptoed towards the fourth floor, but when they just opened the door at the entrance of the corridor on the third floor, they saw a black shadow running up quickly, which instantly made them lose their spirit.

"...Did you see it?" Yin Zhongyu asked in a low voice with a tense face.

"It seems that someone... went upstairs...too fast... I didn't see who it was..." Li Youmei was already timid, "How about... let's go back?"

Yin Zhongyu was silent for a while, standing at the entrance of the already dark corridor where he could not see the road clearly, he said in a low voice, "Aren't you curious?"

His face looked like that of a chronic insomniac, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, an anxious and tired countenance.

"........."

Li Youmei was indeed a little curious, but...she looked uneasily at the corridor she was in, it was strangely quiet, and always felt that something was about to happen.

She was hesitating, when she saw Yin Zhongyu took out a small fruit knife from his pocket, which faintly glowed with a cold silver light in the darkness.

"Uncle...you are..."

Yin Zhongyu looked at the knife in his hand with a complicated expression, and explained perfunctorily: "I bought it when I saw it at the convenience store today..."

"...Be careful..." Li Youmei didn't dare to say anything more, Yin Zhongyu's expression was a little strange now, she couldn't tell why it was so strange, but it was different from before.

"...um...you walk behind me..."

"Oh………"

Yin Zhongyu swallowed, and slowly and carefully opened the door of the girls' dormitory on the fourth floor.

"Is anyone there?" Yin Zhongyu heard the slight vibration of his own voice echoing in the air in the dark.

But what responded to him was a stagnant, predictable silence.

The fourth floor still exudes an unpleasant and strange smell, the smell of rotting animals, the smell of damp and moldy wood, the dusty smell of suspended particles in the air, and a little... She is a little familiar but can't remember where she smelled it. If you don't distinguish it carefully, or people with an insensitive sense of smell can't smell it at all.

The eyes can't see clearly in the dark, so the sense of smell will be relatively sensitive.

"I came here once before, looking for a kitten..." Li Youmei waved her hand in the air, trying to dispel some of the pungent and unpleasant smell.

"But it's very strange. The kitten is obviously not on the fourth floor, but I heard the cat meowing inside... Isn't it strange?"

Yin Zhongyu looked back at her, "When?"

"Not long ago... Dr. Xu helped me find it..." At this point, Li Youmei glanced at Yin Zhongyu with some reproach, "But... Uncle, don't you have a girlfriend?"

Yin Zhongyu looked around with the flashlight on his mobile phone, and felt that the question was a bit inexplicable for a while, "Well...you have a girlfriend, what's the matter?"

Li Yumei took a deep breath, and then spoke carefully.

"Then what's going on between you and Dr. Xu..."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Li Youmei was silent behind him for a while, then whispered, "I heard him calling you, dear..."

Yin Zhongyu stopped in his tracks, sighed helplessly, and cursed in a low voice.

"That 304 gloomy lunatic..."

"You keep saying weird things to me..."

"Wearing black long-sleeves in summer, and then whispering 'dear' to you in a gloomy tone, don't you feel sick?..."

"...Death is the only way..."

"........."

Lee Yumi sneaks a peek at Yoon Jong Woo's blurry face in the dark, it doesn't sound like he's simply annoying, but something she can't put into words, when it comes to Seo Mun Jo, 303's Yoon Jong Woo's negativity Emotions seem to be out of control.

"...So...you guys, aren't you?"

".....What are you thinking... Ah..." Yin Zhongyu touched his forehead a little anxiously, and wiped off some sweat on it. He didn't know whether it was because of the heat or anxiety.

"Ah yo...Really...It's not what Ms. Yumi thinks...I love my girlfriend very much..."

【Is it unilateral...】

Li Yumei didn't stop for a polite, irrelevant argument, she just ended the topic more concisely.Although she does not agree with Yin Zhongyu's extremely harsh evaluation, she does not want to impose her views on others.

The layout of the girls' dormitory was very similar to that on the third floor. They stood at the entrance of the deep and narrow corridor, hesitating.

Li Youmei's curiosity is very measured, once she stops, she can't move.

【Let’s go here, we can’t go past...】

Yin Zhongyu looked at this secluded corridor and had a feeling of deja vu, where did he see it?He remembered right away.It was in the dreams that made it difficult to wake up in those nights after moving to the examination house. This corridor that seemed to eat people often appeared in front of him at the most desperate time, and there would always be a chill at the last moment before waking up from the dream. A cold laugh swallowed him up.

Maybe he didn't even realize that his body was shaking slightly.The repression and fear in my heart are refining a more evil and deadly force.

He is not the kind of person who is cruel and despicable by nature, but when Zhi En got off the car of Jai Hao and was treated deliberately mean by his boss, he couldn't help himself not to think about those crazy things that only appear in black dreams , hot thoughts.

"If anyone wants to kill... kill..." Xu Wenzu's words sounded in his ears again, overlapping with the voice he often recalled in his coldest nightmare.

His psychological defense has been useless, like swimming in a strange river, without any support.

"How do you feel?" Yin Zhongyu stared blankly at the corridor, and suddenly asked Li Yumei.

"……what……"

From just now to now, Li Youmei felt all the hairs on her body stand up in this second. What frightened her at this moment was not the fourth floor of the examination house where no one lived but there was always movement, but that she was standing beside her now. , Yin Zhongyu, who had been normal just now but now has a dull expression and a bit of a tone of voice.

"Standing here, how should I put it... Does it seem like you are in a tunnel that you can't escape..." He seemed to be hypnotized. despair, but none of it seemed his own.

"Uncle..." Li Yumei patted him from behind, but he didn't respond.

"Uncle, what's the matter with you?" She seemed even more anxious, and shook him vigorously, but fortunately it worked this time.

Yin Zhongyu was pulled back to reality by a rush of white noise. He shook his head as if he had just woken up from a dream, and looked back at Li Yumei with a confused face.

"what happened?"

"...you said some strange things just now..." Li Youmei looked at her worriedly, her expression was not very good.

"Do not you remember?"

"Axi... my head is so dizzy... I don't know why... I'm always like this..." Yin Zhongyu rubbed his swollen head.

"Uncle, have you... have you been to a doctor?" Li Youmei was relieved to see that he had returned to normal. She raised her eyes and glanced at the end of the corridor uneasily, but there was still the same blackness that could not be seen at the end.

"Let's go out..."

This time Yin Zhongyu quickly agreed, and the two of them hurriedly left the dormitory on the fourth floor, and Yin Zhongyu's cell phone rang as soon as they went out.

Yin Zhongyu stuffed the knife into the back pocket of his trousers, rubbed his aching head, took out his mobile phone to check, then raised his head and said to Li Yumei: "I'll answer the phone..."

"Then I'll go down first..."

"Ok."

When Li Youmei returned to the restaurant, Xu Wenzu was sitting where she had been sitting, flipping through her French book.

The book was not thick in the first place, it was a thin book, and he had already read more than half of it.

Xu Wenzu seemed to be aware of Li Youmei's existence, and he lazily raised his eyelids to look at her.

"Doctor Xu?..." Li Youmei called out in a low voice, with hesitation and uncertainty in her voice.

"Hmm..." It sounded like a casual snort, which sounded lazy and casual, even kind.

"That's... mine..." Li Youmei's words were interrupted by a sudden look from him, she paused for a moment and suddenly lost her confidence, "Book..."

"I didn't expect... Miss Yumei's book is so... interesting..." Xu Wenzu closed the book, put it aside, cast his gaze towards her faintly, with a little bit of inquiry in his empty eyes.

The original French edition of Laurent Topol's "The Strange Tenant" is an old book that Li Yumei randomly pulled out from the box with a slightly yellowed cover to pass the time.

"If it were me, I would be crazy to meet those horrible neighbors..."

"Really? Miss Yumi..."

"Ah? I actually..." [Just looking at it casually. 】

"In the name of justice and morality, doing things that hurt others. Taking pleasure in the pain of others... ah... think about it, it's really creepy..."

As Xu Wenzu said, he secretly observed the expression on her face with his characteristic fake smile.

"How can there be such a person?"

"Well...it's like this..." She agreed with him gently, turned her head to glance at the books on the dining table, then naturally turned her eyes to Xu Wenzu again, and lowered her head to meet his gaze.

She blushed.

"...Oh... that..." Her face paused, with a strange expression, "...Dr. Xu..."

Li Youmei raised her hand and pointed to a certain part of Xu Wenzu's face, "Doctor Xu... there seems to be something on his face... oh...here..."

On the shadow of Xu Wenzu's pale and thin jaw, there is a small dark stain in an inconspicuous position.

Xu Wenzu looked at her quietly, but didn't intend to wipe it off himself.

Li Youmei couldn't help stretching out her hand, but stopped when her slender fingertips were about to touch his face, she glanced at Xu Wenzu in a panic, as if she wanted some kind of permission.

Xu Wenzu was still looking at her intently, his black iris seemed to be carrying a weak electric current, shining an obscure light, penetrating into her heart through Li Yumei's eyes, sending an invitation to her.

Inspired by this, she quickly wiped his warm fingers on his pale face and then quickly retracted them. She shyly avoided his long stare with electric current, looked down at her own hands, and then Gently rubbing the stain on my fingers, it seems that it has not dried completely, reddish brown...

"This is..." Her heart was beating wildly in her chest, and the blood on her face seemed to disappear in an instant.

【Blood......】

"What is it?" Xu Wenzu stood up slowly, his voice could not detect any emotion, and his tall body covered part of the light of the incandescent lamp in front of her.

Li Youmei didn't need to look up to know that he was looking at her. She lowered her head to look at Xu Wenzu's slender shadow drawn by the pale light, not daring to breathe.

Because she remembered, the smell mixed with the unpleasant smell on the fourth floor just now was the same as the smell on Xu Wenzu's body.

Li Youmei's whole body trembled with her violently trembling heart, and she had no way to hide this emotion at all.

Her reaction was so obvious that Xu Wenzu didn't need to bother to notice it. There was still a slight smile on his face, and there was a faint killing intent in his black eyes.

"...It's just...dirty things..."

She tried to regain a bit of fragmented reason, and answered with a small voice.

"...Well... maybe I got it by accident in the clinic..." He rubbed the old hardcover book in his hand, still with an unpredictable faint sneer on his mouth, staring at her because of fear Frozen face.

"………I'm going back…"

Xu Wenzu returned the book to her, and Li Youmei took the book and looked at him shyly, then turned around and prepared to go back to the room.

"Miss Yumei." Xu Wenzu suddenly stopped her again.

Li Youmei's body seemed to be frozen suddenly, she turned her head slowly and stiffly, silently waiting for him to speak.

"I'm just curious..." Xu Wenzu stared at her blankly with those jet-black eyes in the deep eye sockets, "What is the ending of the protagonist in the book?" He put away his smile, and his tone became a little strange and low.

"do you died?"

Li Youmei stared at him in confusion, and subconsciously replied: "Not dead."

She hesitated for a while, then suppressed the weird feeling in her heart and emphasized it again.

"living."

Xu Wenzu hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, with an expression Li Youmei couldn't understand on his face, "So it's like this... I know..."

When Li Youmei returned to her room, her knees were soft, and the soles of her feet seemed to be on cotton.She sat on the bed in a state of collapse, and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Xu Wenzu must have been to the fourth floor, and Li Yumei was almost 100% sure of this fact.

【He went to the fourth floor, what is he doing...】

Li Youmei looked down at the thing she just rubbed on her hand again, and she leaned closer to smell it.

It is indeed the iron stench of blood.

[Did he kill someone? 】When this thought appeared, a chilling fear enveloped her.

After a while, she took out the wallet she found in the room with a pale face, and stared at it for a long time with a solemn expression, not knowing what she was thinking.

After Li Youmei left the kitchen, Xu Wenzu looked at the direction she was leaving silently, touched his face with his hands expressionlessly, maybe Li Youmei didn't clean it just now, he looked at his fingers, there was still A little bit of blood remained.

At least they're all quiet, he thought with relief.

He hates those accidents that make him unreasonable. Just a little color spot in the wrong place is enough to destroy the effect of the whole work.

Midnight was passing boringly, which was fine with him, he needed a quiet place like this so he could be in control, for as long as possible.

"Boom—boom—boom—"

There was a sound of rhythmic tennis balls hitting the wall in room 411. Xu Wenzu expressionlessly threw out the dirty tennis ball again, but the color could still be seen.

The higher the poundage, the greater the stretch.

"It seems to have been discovered..."

He stretched out his left hand and firmly grabbed the bouncing ball, leaned his head back on the sofa, and let out a pleasant sigh.

"What can I do..." He lowered his voice, as if conspiring with someone, the expression on his face was also obscure, but his eyes were dark and scary.

"An annoying little mouse..."

"Are you going to disappear?"

The small whispers lingered in the gloomy and empty corridor on the fourth floor, as if they were the mournful and unwilling sighs of the dead souls of the victims of the terrible misfortune that happened on the fourth floor.
