Opening a Shop in the Nightmare World

The moment he was "swallowed" by the darkness, Su Zimo suddenly understood.

When he is unwilling to disregard human life, these strangers he meets may have completely different ideas from him.

What's more, he is in a different space called "Nightmare World", not the high school days before he became a "fool" and didn't need to worry about anything except studying.

If it weren't for Su Zimo's special situation, he might not survive an hour in this so-called "nightmare world".

"Hey..." Putting aside all kinds of negative emotions that had arisen, Su Zimo stretched out his right hand and shook it back, holding the doorknob that reappeared in the dark because no one was watching.While heaving a sigh of relief, Su Zimo suddenly felt that the environment he was in was a bit strange.

In Su Zimo's imagination, the darkness that has been chasing the trainees is like the stomach of a ghost, as long as it is caught by the darkness, it will be swallowed into the stomach of the ghost and eaten directly!

But this is not the case. The environment he is in is not particularly weird. Instead, it is just a corridor where the candles on both sides are not extinguished. He can even see the corridor in front of which is still lit with red candlelight.

He could see the little fat man yelling and running wildly.

He could also see Han Ling, who had fallen to the ground, scrambling and running forward.

Su Zimo could see them, but people outside couldn't seem to see Su Zimo, otherwise the doorknob held by Su Zimo might disappear again.

But what Zheng Ming said was right, the speed of the darkness spreading seemed to have stopped because of "swallowing" Su Zimo, and the remaining candles in the corridor were no longer blown out, and the injured Han Ling and others were able to breathe and breathe. Opportunity to continue to escape.

Although Su Zimo won't "fight" for them for too long, it should be enough for Han Ling and the others to hide in the second shelter that Zheng Ming found not far ahead!

Han Ling's plan can be said to be a success.

But... what about the promised ghost?

I don't know if it's because of the effect of the glasses on the bridge of the nose, but after Su Zimo stayed in the dark for a few seconds, he seemed to be able to vaguely see something in the dark.

He could see candlesticks in the dark, and various mirrors hanging on the walls.

From the very beginning, Su Zimo had a doubt—why are there so many mirrors hanging in the corridors of the hotel?

When Su Zimo glanced at a certain mirror beside him, the pupils behind his glasses shrank instantly, showing an unbelievable expression.

What did he see?

He saw a long-haired woman in a red dress with her head bowed in the mirror!He saw horrifying dark red blood dripping down the neck of the woman "person", and the shoulders and arms of the woman "person" were covered with blood, which made Su Zimo even unable to determine whether the red dress was the original one. The color is still stained red by blood...

That's clearly not a human, but a ghost!

What was even more frightening was that Su Zimo watched helplessly as the female ghost in red clothes disappeared from the mirror in front of him and appeared in another mirror that was very close to the dividing line between the darkness and the corridor!The female ghost appeared sideways in the mirror, lowered her head and blew out the burning candle beside the mirror.

Su Zimo could hear the familiar sound of wind blowing when the female ghost blew out the candle.

Another candle blew, and the darkness in the corridor moved closer.

When the lights go out, ghosts keep people!

It turns out...the ghosts of this nightmare world have never been hiding in the dark, but in the mirrors that shouldn't be in the hotel corridors...

This is the truth of this nightmare world.

"Darkness, the darkness is approaching again! Why is there no effect!" Han Ling's hysterical voice came from the corridor outside the darkness, which had clearly "swallowed" Su Zimo's darkness, and covered her ankles again.

At first, Su Zimo also thought that the female ghost in the mirror would not attack him, and even thought that this was another ability given to him by "being in a corner".But when Su Zimo accidentally looked at the female ghost who raised her head in the mirror, the female ghost suddenly screamed sharply and brokenly in the darkness, and then the female ghost's black hair fell from the sky like a "waterfall". Surging out of the mirror, he attacked Su Zimo without hesitation!

Although he could barely see in the dark, Su Zimo couldn't dodge the female ghost's black seaweed-like hair well in the dark, so he didn't have much time to escape in the end.

Fortunately, the female ghost's gaze did not make the doorknob that Su Zimo was holding tightly disappear.

"Su Zimo!"

Just when Su Zimo pushed open the door behind him, an unexpected figure turned back from the corridor outside, even tore off the metal candlestick on the wall, and rushed into the critical line of darkness with a flickering red candle.

That figure didn't dare to go deep into the darkness, but the fact that he took the initiative to turn back and came back with a candle to find new trainees was impressive enough.

"Su Zimo, grab my hand!"

The candle light was too weak, and the person who broke in could not find the person he was looking for in the dark.

Su Zimo could actually see Qi Xiaomin standing one meter away with a candle in his hand, but he could also see the ghostly hair turning towards where Qi Xiaomin was and attacking through the candlelight.

"Run, the female ghost is heading towards you." Su Zimo thanked Qi Xiaomin for his last rescue, so the moment he retreated into the store door behind him, he loudly gave the most correct reminder he could think of, "The female ghost Hide in the mirror, find a place where there is no mirror and hide!"

The bathroom in the hotel room is obviously modern, but the reflective windows in the guest room have become white walls, and there are no reflective equipment such as TVs.Thinking about it now, this was as strange as a hallway full of mirrors.Su Zimo felt that this might be the survival reminder that the nightmare world showed in front of them from the very beginning.

He didn't want to save Han Ling, but what he thought of might be able to save the girl who had worked hard from the beginning to keep all the trainees alive.

It's a pity that Su Zimo can only do so much. He can feel that if he doesn't enter the door, he himself will die under the attack of the ghost.

Su Zimo, who retreated into the store, couldn't see Qi Xiaomin's expression clearly, but he could see the candle light in Qi Xiaomin's hand moving away at a fast speed, which also made Su Zimo feel relieved.

What made Su Zimo even more reassuring was that the moment he stepped back into the door, he had already returned to a bright and quiet place - the empty shop named "An Yu Yi Yu".Su Zimo took a few steps back, and finally saw clearly the white frosted door that always followed behind him in a translucent manner, and the endless darkness behind the door.

In the next second, the seaweed-like hair of a ghost suddenly rushed out of the door, and Su Zimo, who thought he was safe, was also shocked.

Afterwards, Su Zimo saw the ghost's hair recede like a tide as if he felt something terrible, and the ordinary-looking white matte side door also closed automatically with a "snap".

Before closing the door, Su Zimo vaguely heard a scream, which sounded like Han Ling.

"I'm back." The moment the door was completely closed, Su Zimo supported the counter not far from him, and just sat down on the cold floor of "An Yu Yi Yu", looked around, looked at the lights above his head, Everything seems to be back to how it was at the beginning.

In an instant, Su Zimo bid farewell to the screams and noises belonging to other trainees, and also bid farewell to the muddy and uncomfortable dark red space.He just stood in the clean and bright "An Yu Yi Yu", and Su Zimo could smell the fresh air in the seemingly ordinary shop.

The only difference from when he set out was that there were some more "goods" brought back from that nightmare world in the bag on his back.

To be more specific, the so-called "goods" are a few sets of toiletries, a few rolls of paper towels, and a white vase with no distinctive features.

When taking these things out of the bag, Su Zimo took a deep breath, and at the same time began to reflect on what he had just encountered, and the usage of the rear door that he had basically mastered.

First, the door was always behind him and never left.

Second, no one can see the door except Su Zimo himself.

Third, you can touch the doorknob by reaching out your hand backwards, but the doorknob will disappear when it is watched by other living humans.

Fourth, you need to walk backwards to enter the opened door behind you.

After summarizing, Su Zimo knew very well that the use of doors is not a panacea, after all, doors will only appear when no one else is watching.

What if the next time he is pushed towards Li Gui by someone, it will be under the watchful eyes of everyone?

Thinking of such a possibility, Su Zimo sighed and told himself that people he met in the nightmare world must not be regarded as teammates!

If you really want to enter the nightmare world again, it is most appropriate to put yourself in an inconspicuous position without being noticed.After all, Su Zimo's biggest advantage is that he doesn't need to complete the messy tasks of the trainees, he just needs to purchase as low-key as possible.

Su Zimo walked to the shelf in the middle of the "An Yu Yi Yu" store, and began to try to put the things in the backpack on the shelf bit by bit.

When the first pack of "Nightmare Brand" roll paper and toiletry set that looked very ordinary was put on the shelf, Su Zimo found that the "price column" in front of the roll paper had words and prices automatically appeared——

[Nightmare Brand Advanced Roll Paper]

[Price: 1 yuan]

[Nightmare brand washing six-piece set]

[Price: 6 yuan]

These items can really be sold normally.

After putting the last white vase on the shelf, Su Zimo tried to walk towards the front door and the back door, which could not be opened all the time, but these two doors, which could not be opened due to lack of operating energy, still could not be opened at this moment!

Ayuyuyu's intelligent system, which had spoken to Su Zimo before, went on strike due to insufficient energy, but even without the broadcast of the intelligent system, Su Zimo could guess the reason why he could not leave the store.

Sure enough, it's because the running energy is not enough?

"There are still too few products." Looking at the still empty shelves, Su Zimo took off his glasses and wiped them, sighing softly.

In addition to wanting to rely on A Yu Yu Yu to increase the remaining lifespan, Su Zimo's desire to leave A Yu Yu Yu and go home is also strong.

Because Su Zimo really wanted to know who had been taking care of the worthless "fool" during the four years he had been a "fool".

Is it his bastard father who was deprived of the right to inherit the Su family, married four wives, changed countless lovers, and gave birth to many illegitimate daughters, but only his own son?

Or was it Su Zimo's grandfather who was bedridden because of a serious illness before Su Zimo's car accident?

Because every time Su Zimo woke up from his "sleep", he was in different villas and rest resorts, surrounded by not only good living conditions, but also people taking good care of him, so he was always confused by this .

Faced with the choice of two answers, Su Zimo always prefers the latter.But does this mean that I have been taken care of by the sick old man for four years?

what about now?

If I suddenly disappeared from the place where I was resettled, would the old man anxiously search for it?

Thinking of such a scene, Su Zimo wanted to leave A Yu Yu Yu even more urgently!

If he couldn't leave because there wasn't enough merchandise, then...

Su Zimo's eyes naturally fell on the white frosted side door that had just been closed.

If the goods are not enough, he will go to the nightmare world again!
