Chapter 56 How Can There Be Ghosts?
Seeing her own image through the surveillance camera was terrifying.
Especially when she saw the black shadow crouched by the window, only a wall away from her.
Given this situation, it was a miracle that girl Liu Siyi didn’t scream involuntarily.
But no matter what, Liu Siyi didn’t dare to turn around. She was afraid that if she turned around, she would see something extremely terrifying.
As for whether the black shadow outside could be a person?
What normal person would crouch by a second-floor window?
This black shadow must be a ghost!
The more Liu Siyi thought about it, the more panicked she became.
The muscles all over her body trembled uncontrollably, and her heart pounded like crazy.
Her courage was about to shatter.
Tremblingly, she clicked the “X” in the upper right corner.
Then, she pretended she knew nothing and browsed through the other cameras.
But there were some things she knew, she just didn’t dare to face them.
On the computer screen, there were some black areas.
These areas could reflect images to some extent.
And through these reflections, Liu Siyi found that there seemed to be nothing on the window.
Was there no one on the window?
Disbelieving, she clicked into the surveillance feed again to take a look…
The black shadow was still there, crouched on it.
A cold chill shot straight to her brain, and her teeth chattered.
When people are excessively nervous, they are unable to move at all.
But even so, driven by a strong survival instinct, she managed to open her mobile phone.
Perhaps a plea, perhaps a desperate grasp for the last straw.
She opened Giant Chat and sent a message to Li Xiangfei.
“Come save me quickly!”
The message quickly showed as received.
The other party also replied.
“I’ll be right there, wait for me.”
Seeing this reply, Liu Siyi breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, the door to the room was knocked.
“Siyi, are you still in there?”
It was Li Xiangfei’s voice!
But before Liu Siyi could be happy, she realized something.
That is… her phone didn’t even have a network connection, so why could it send messages?
“I’ll be right there! There’s a ghost outside! Don’t open the door!”
Another “ding ding” notification sounded from the phone.
But for Liu Siyi now, this message was like the death knell of hell.
Her expression was completely unreadable, neither crying nor smiling, but what was certain was that the extreme tension had made her forget even the pain.
What to do?
With tear-filled eyes, Liu Siyi stared intently at the screen, trying to distract herself by looking at the images, hoping to alleviate some of the fear.
“Knock knock knock!”
The knocking on the door outside became more urgent, but Liu Siyi didn’t dare to make any sound.
Her hands rested on the mouse and keyboard, like a puppet.
“Siyi! Open the door quickly! That murderer is right behind me, he’s chasing me!”
At that moment, the small screens began to go black.
“snap…”
“snap…”
“snap…”
Finally, only the moonlight shining from outside the window remained in the room.
The moonlight fell on the computer screen, reflecting a dark shadow.
It was crouched by the window, and Liu Siyi finally saw its appearance.
It was a grotesque and distorted face, silently watching her.
Liu Siyi’s vision went dark, and in extreme fear, she almost fainted.
Placing her hands on the table, she struggled to support herself.
Liu Siyi knew very well that once she fainted, she might never wake up again.
But in her heart, she really wanted to just faint. If she died like that, maybe there would be no pain.
“Liu Siyi!”
“Liu Siyi!”
One message after another came from the phone, but for Liu Siyi at this moment, there was nothing more to fear.
The black shadow had already opened the window and slowly entered the room.
Perhaps in the next second, she would die miserably in this place?
But just then…
“Bang!!”
The door to the surveillance room was directly smashed open.
Li Xiangfei rushed into the room. He naturally saw the contorted, hateful fierce ghost and Liu Siyi, whose body was completely frozen.
So, without a word, the man directly put Liu Siyi on his back and turned to run.
But just as he reached the doorway, he collided with an even more terrifying figure.
It was a man wearing a black trench coat and a gas mask.
In his hand, he held a blood-stained fire axe, from which a black, viscous liquid was constantly dripping. The moonlight fell on the axe blade, emitting a sharp, cold glint.
Seeing this murderer blocking the doorway, even Li Xiangfei was so scared that he took three steps back.
“Uh… brother, don’t draw your weapon. Let’s talk.”
Liu Haoyu looked at Li Xiangfei and Liu Siyi on his back and couldn’t help but ask.
“Why is it you? Didn’t I tell you to go back quickly?”
Hearing this question, Li Xiangfei was on the verge of tears.
He wanted to go back, but could he?
His girlfriend was still here; whether to live or die, he had to save her first, right?
At this time, Liu Siyi, on Li Xiangfei’s back, also covered her eyes, trembling with fear.
“I didn’t see your face… I don’t know what you look like…”
Liu Haoyu took off his mask and sighed, repeating helplessly.
“I’m really a good person.”
“What good person carries this thing on their hands?”
Compared to Liu Siyi, Li Xiangfei’s ability to accept was clearly stronger. He slowly raised his head and said to Liu Haoyu.
“Brother, there really are ghosts in this place.”
“Yes, yes, yes!” Liu Siyi couldn’t care about anything else and chimed in, “It was crouched by the window of the surveillance room, with a ghost-like face, it was really scary! We should leave quickly…”
Liu Siyi finally started crying from fear, her sobs echoing in the surveillance room.
Liu Haoyu frowned, stepped over them, and looked inside the surveillance room.
As a result, there was no ghost, only a window that had been opened.
“You’re just scaring yourselves, aren’t you? How can there be ghosts in this world?”
“There really are!”
Liu Siyi emphasized again and again, wanting the murderer in front of her to understand the seriousness of the matter.
“The Hua Qiang brothers must have been caught by ghosts. I watched the surveillance room for so long just now, but I couldn’t find any trace of the two of them.”
“Oh?”
Liu Haoyu listened and tried to turn on the computer.
After pressing the power button a few times, he said.
“There’s even no electricity, how did you watch it?”
“This?”
Liu Siyi no longer cared about crying.
She got off Li Xiangfei’s back and limped to the computer.
As she passed by Liu Haoyu, she couldn’t help but shiver.
Then she pressed the power button and the light switch in the room.
There was no response.
“I knew it… you’ve all gone crazy from fear. How could there be ghosts in this world?”
Saying that, Liu Haoyu casually flicked off the black, unknown liquid from the axe.
