Chapter 9 Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors
It was cold, scary, and damp. There was a faint rancid smell in the air, and the whole room seemed to be shrouded in a shadow.
The familiar feeling of suffocation came, and Gao Ming knew that he had once again arrived at a place where two worlds overlapped.
“The method provided by Xuan Wen is correct. Doing so can indeed trigger the Kaitan game.”
Avoiding the gaze of the corpse downstairs, Gao Ming looked back at the living room. The four candles placed in the corners had been extinguished, and the environment in the room seemed to remain at the moment when the deceased committed suicide.
“Where is Xuan Wen?”
There was only Gao Ming in the dilapidated room, and the psychological criminal serial killer who wanted to enter the game with him did not appear.
“Has she left the room? Or did she not come in at all?”
The casing is yellow, the charging port has stains and broken hair, the phone has no lock screen password, and new messages pop up on it.
The owners, including Gao Ming, all watched the video again. In the three videos, Zhao Xi's position did change.
Just now, Mr. Wang, who lives on the first floor, sent three videos to all Aite group members.
Huddled on the bed in the bedroom, Xiaoqiu called for help through the video, but no one in the building did anything.
Her facial features were deformed due to fear. Xiaoqiu seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying. Her mouth opened wide, but before she could make a sound, she was dragged into the darkness.
2101Wang Xusheng: "How can the corpse move? How can the dead move?! It should be a problem with the shooting angle. I'll go to the balcony to take a look!"
Li Li is Zhao Xi's sister-in-law and lives on the third floor with Zhao Xi's adoptive mother, Zhao Yuanyuan.
The bodies were coming up the stairs, but that wasn't the worst.
“The corpse appeared downstairs. Judging from the scope of the impact, this game is much larger than the ones I have played before, at least it includes the entire building No. 2.”
Her heart was beating heavily, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. With trembling hands, Xiaoqiu turned on the light on her mobile phone.
“What should I do? Help me, please? We are all neighbors! You will get caught up in him too!”
The knocking on the door did not weaken at all, but became louder and louder, and the door panel seemed to be shaking slightly.
2101Wang Xusheng: "I saw Zhao Xi being taken away with my own eyes! Why did his body come back again! What happened???"
The resident on the fourth floor seemed to deliberately want to verify something. After he finished speaking, he pulled all the group members, including Zhao Xi, into the group video.
The person who committed suicide fell headfirst to the ground, his face had completely changed shape, his neck was broken and elongated, his limbs were twisted, and the broken bones pierced the skin.
Room 2203 was completely silent, and the group video was also silent.
The thick shadow was like black sea water flooding the body. Gao Ming stayed where he was and calmed himself down. He wanted to determine which game had become reality as soon as possible.
Because she was too anxious and scared, Xiaoqiu directly sent a voice message: "There is really something climbing up! It's right outside my door."
When everyone saw that Zhao Xi's video was opened, they all took a breath, but then they saw Gao Ming appear at Zhao Xi's home.
Xiaoqiu's face turned pale with fright. She turned on the video and blocked the sofa behind the living room door.
Darkness enveloped room 2203 without warning, and the faint light from the mobile phone screen reflected Xiaoqiu's face.
2203 Xiaoqiu: "Brother Wang, there is something wrong with these three videos of yours! The position of Zhao Xi in the first video is different from the position in the third video! He seems to be... moving!"
Sensing something was wrong, Gao Ming took his cell phone, ran to the balcony, and looked downstairs.
The heavy rain wet her pajamas, and the phone slipped from her palm to the window sill. Xiaoqiu had forgotten the video and kicked the anti-theft net like crazy.
2304 Li Li: “Is it because Zhao Xi is in this group that this group chat can continue to be used?”
Lijing Apartment is a typical old community in the old city. It is in a remote location and many rooms are empty. There are not many people living in the second building. Now that Wang Xusheng is missing, the remaining residents are even more frightened. The owner who originally said he wanted to go out to check is also shrinking in the room.
The group chat exploded. Some people tried to call the police, and some wanted to go out of the house to check, but they all quickly became quiet.
A brief light appeared in the bedroom, and Xiaoqiu let out a piercing scream.
The heavy rain washed away the bloodstains, and the body originally placed at the entrance of the corridor disappeared.
The heavy object was dragged on the ground, the door panel was slowly squeezed open, the broken nails rubbed against the floor tiles, and the moving outlines in the darkness gradually became clear.
Wang Xusheng, who went to shoot a new video, did not send any more messages and seemed to have disappeared.
Touching the screen, Gao Ming saw the chat group that Zhao Xi had joined - Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. This was the owner group of Lijing Apartment Building No. 2.
Handing up his cell phone, Gao Ming silently watched each neighbor in the video, keeping in mind the subtle changes in everyone's expressions, and then quickly walked to the door of the living room.
“When I was chatting with Zhao Xi, I saw him using this phone.”
2409 Fang Shuqi: “Let's open the group video so that everyone can see each other, understand each other's situation more comprehensively, and be mentally prepared.”
Before Gao Ming had time to speak, there was a knock on the door in Xiaoqiu's video, with an interval of about two seconds, as if someone was banging his head against the door.
“Brother Zhao had chatted with me many times before his death, and I also planned to make a small game for him that could soothe his emotions. At that time, I conceived several game design plans..."
The neighbors in the group chat shouted reminders, but Xiaoqiu just turned around tremblingly.
The resident on the first floor was obviously panicked. He seemed to be preparing to shoot a video again.
Xiaoqiu, who was holding her mobile phone, looked horrified. She was trapped in the room.
With wet eyes and Xiaoqiu about to cry, the lights in the room flickered and then suddenly went out.
The vibrating sound of the mobile phone interrupted Gao Ming's thinking. He slowly opened the bedroom door and found a brand-name mobile phone on the bedside table.
2304 Li Li: "Who are you? Why are you holding Zhao Xi's mobile phone? Is it still at Zhao Xi's house? Did you bring his body back?"
2409 Fang Shuqi: "Why did Zhao Xi's body come back? Did your family do something bad? I often hear you arguing and scolding upstairs! You, the family, are lying on his body to **** blood, but you still think it's natural. It should be, retribution must have come now!”
There was a strange crunching sound in the dark living room. She didn't dare to breathe and directly covered her mouth and nose.
Her body seemed to be frozen, she was holding the phone tightly and staring at the living room.
Emotionally broken, she opened the bedroom window, kicked the security net in panic, and wanted to jump out.
2304 Li Li: "Fuck you M! His death has nothing to do with me!" 2203 Xiaoqiu: "Don't make any noise! I heard it! I heard a noise in the corridor! Something is climbing up!"
He stood on the balcony of his home and took a close-up shot of Zhao Xi's body.
Through the camera, everyone could see the situation on the bedroom ceiling and the side of the window. Xiaoqiu, who wanted to escape, did not notice that there was a pale human face on the lower left side of the window, moving upward little by little.
2203 Xiaoqiu: "It's over! What to do! All calls can't be made, and except for this group chat, no other information can be sent! Why on earth is this!"
“He has climbed into the building?”
Gao Ming just saw the face outside the window in the video. That face did not belong to Zhao Xi, but looked a bit like Wang Xusheng from 2101.
Looking away from the group chat of distant relatives rather than close neighbors, Gao Ming did not see the process of the neighbors being killed. He recalled the "parents" who had been replaced before. The situation he was most worried about now was that the neighbors had been replaced. Except for him, everyone else is "ghost".
