Chapter 662 The Warmth of Home
The slightly surprised voice of a middle-aged woman came from the mobile phone, and Xiao You felt a chill rush to his forehead after hearing it.
"You just saw someone else in the living room?!"
"Yes! He took the dirty clothes you changed into the bathroom! I thought that was your boyfriend! "
"Bathroom?" Only then did Xiao You realize that the bathroom door had been closed by someone. She didn't have the habit of closing the bathroom door at all.
The fear at that moment engulfed her, and she didn't bother to explain to her mother. Xiaoyou hurriedly opened the door. She twisted the door handle crazily, but something truly desperate happened to her.
It seems like something is stuck in the door lock. The handle cannot be pressed and the door cannot be opened at all!
"Dong, dong, dong..."
There was a strange noise from the bathroom on the other side of the living room. Xiaoyou opened the door with both hands and kept turning his head to look at the bathroom.
There were water drops sliding down the opaque frosted glass. Someone seemed to be washing clothes in the bathroom, but it seemed that the more they washed the clothes, the dirtier they became, and the frequency of the strange sounds gradually increased.
"Help! Is there anyone!"
Xiao You, who had a psychological breakdown, panicked, slammed the door hard, and screamed, but there was dead silence outside the door, and no one responded.
"Call the police! I'll call the police for you too!"
After Xiaoyou screamed, the strange sounds in the bathroom suddenly stopped. After about a few seconds, there seemed to be something behind the frosted glass. Something came close, dark, like a face pressed against the glass.
The bathroom door handle slowly turned downwards. Xiaoyou could not open the living room door. If she continued like this, she would face the things in the bathroom.
In panic, she grabbed her phone and ran back to the bedroom.
When she was about to close the bedroom door, the bathroom door opened by itself.
Xiao You, who was in a hurry to close the door, did not dare to take a closer look. She only vaguely caught a glimpse of a pair of legs.
Locking the bedroom door, Xiao You ran over and opened the bedroom window, but this was the seventh floor. If you jumped from here, you would definitely die.
"Don't jump! Call the police! Ask the neighbors to help you!" Her mother's voice came from the mobile phone, and Xiaoyou calmed down a little.
She didn't dare to hang up her mother's call, so she switched the video to the background and prepared to call the police.
But something happened that made Xiaoyou even more surprised. The alarm call could not be answered!
Emergency numbers are special numbers that are not restricted by the service of any communication company. As long as there are mobile phone base stations nearby, they can receive and send signals to each other.
The failure to get through to the emergency phone only surprised Xiao You, but what really aroused her inner fear was that even the emergency call could not be reached, but she could have a video connection with her mother!
Cold sweat flowed down instantly. It happened that the video call in the background popped up again. Xiaoyou looked at her mother's face on the phone screen, and her hands were shaking.
It wasn't until this moment that she realized that her mother's skin seemed to be extra white today.
"Baby, what's wrong with you? Don't be afraid! Mom will be there soon!"
"No need!" Xiao You screamed, and she almost threw her phone away.
"Mom has arrived in your community! Don't be afraid!"
"No! Don't come over!" Xiaoyou's voice became sharp, and her whole body was trembling.
"Baby! Mom has already entered the corridor!"
"You! Who are you!" The video picture is getting blurry and the signal has completely disappeared, but Xiaoyou can still see his mother's face on the phone screen , that face seemed to be able to see her through the phone screen, staring at her.
"I'm on the third floor! I'm on the fourth floor! The fifth floor..."
Xiaoyou's psychological defense has collapsed. She was so frightened that she couldn't hold her phone steady. When the phone fell, When she was on the ground, her mother's last words came out in the video: "I'm at your door!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
There was a sudden knock on the door in the living room. Xiaoyou held his breath and had no idea what to do.
At this most suffocating moment, the strange footsteps sounded in the living room again, as if someone was walking outside.
The sky was getting darker, and the room felt like an ice cellar, with the temperature extremely low.
About a few seconds later, Xiaoyou clearly heard the sound of the living room door being opened, but this was the last sound she heard.
After the living room door opened, it was completely silent outside.
Covering her mouth and nose, Xiaoyou stopped where she was. After a long time, she overcame her fear and approached the bedroom door.
“What happened outside?”
My fingers could not control their trembling. Xiao You was about to touch the bedroom door when the phone that fell to the ground suddenly started to vibrate.
She received several messages in succession, including one from the landlord, one from the renter, Mr. Jia, and several messages from her father.
"Signal restored?"
Xiaoyou overcame the fear in his heart, grabbed his mobile phone, dialed the police number, and checked the messages sent by his father.
"Yu Yi, I haven't been able to get through your phone. I know you still hate me, but I hope you can come to the city hospital."
"Can you reply to me? information? No matter what, you are also my only daughter. I will promise you that I will never go gambling again!”
“At around four o’clock in the afternoon, your mother wanted to see you, but there was a car accident on the road, and the chance of rescue was slim.”
"Go home, Yui, daddy only has you."
Xiaoyou only saw the information now, and she was confused.
“Mom?”
As if thinking of something, Xiaoyou clenched the phone, opened the bedroom door and rushed out.
There were water-stained footprints everywhere in the living room, the faucet in the bathroom was not turned off, the mirror was broken, and sharp fragments were scattered on the floor, as if someone had fought in the house.
Going to the door of the living room, the originally closed door was opened a crack. Xiaoyou tried to pull the door handle. This time she opened the door easily.
Before she could react, a force pushed her from behind and pushed her out of the room.
Looking back, Xiao You saw his mother hanging from the living room lamp by something. She had a mobile phone stained with blood hanging around her neck, and she was holding on to the clothes of a strange man with both hands.
"Yuyi! Run!"
My mother's voice came to my ears. Xiaoyou crawled backwards. She rolled down the stairs and took out her mobile phone to call the police again.
Enduring the pain, Xiaoyou, stimulated by fear, ran to the first floor in one breath, but there was a yellow paper stuck on the iron door of the corridor and it was locked.
Despair kept welling up in her heart. Xiaoyou tried many times but couldn't open the corridor door. She couldn't call the neighbors for help. No one seemed to hear her cry. Instead, the footsteps came from upstairs.
“He’s down!”
Fear filled her heart. Xiaoyou looked around and found that the doors of several houses on the first floor were not locked. She found a house at random and ran away secretly. Go in.
There was no one in the room, so Xiaoyou slowed down and quietly hid in a closet.
Biting her lips tightly, Xiaoyou turned her cell phone to silent, she did not dare to make any sound.
Dark night had fallen, and Xiaoyou was so nervous that she didn't even dare to breathe too hard. She could only occasionally observe the situation outside through the gaps in the cabinet door.
After a while, the phone Xiaoyou held in her palm suddenly lit up. She looked down and found that it was her mother who had made a video call to her.
She was instantly surprised and answered the phone, but after the video call was put through, she did not see her mother's figure on the phone screen. She only saw the rapidly shaking steps of the stairs and the house number on the second floor.
"No! This is not a call from mom! This is the perspective of that ghost! It's coming!"
Hang up quickly, Xiao You bit her lip so nervously that it bled. .
But as soon as she hung up, her mother kept sending video invitations. The pop-up window kept shaking, and the phone screen emitted a faint and frightening cold light.
Afraid to answer the call, Xiaoyou turned off the phone and put it in the corner of the cabinet. But at this moment, she heard the sound of the door of the opposite room being pushed open.
“It’s coming in?!”
The heartbeat seemed to be about to stop, Xiao You hugged his body tightly.
Time seemed to slow down a lot in the darkness, and Xiaoyou didn't even dare to listen to the noise outside.
The footsteps were not far away, and the thing was moving back and forth.
About ten minutes later, footsteps appeared in the bedroom where Xiaoyou was hiding, and then stopped in front of the closet.
Xiao You, whose facial features were distorted by fear, looked towards the gap in the cabinet door tremblingly.
At the same time, two men's voices also sounded outside the corridor.
"Han Fei, run slower!"
"The situation is critical, we must not delay it now!"
"What should we do now? The corridor door is locked, and the female tenant's phone cannot be reached. How about we wait downstairs?"
"It doesn't matter, I have professional lock-picking skills."
"Can you also pick locks?"
"Bang!!" (End of this chapter)
