Apartment from Hell Chapter 13 (2/2)

In that instant, Li Yin abruptly sees that white figure appear behind Kexin’s back!

“Ke… Ke, Kexin… B-Behind you…”

Li Yin’s words almost shock Kexin to the extent that her heart stops! She quickly swivels around and looks, but there is nothing there. “You! What are you doing! Li Yin, do you want to scare me to death?!”

But just now, that white figure truly appeared behind Kexin.

This quiet forest seems to have become a horrible existence which threatens to engulf both of them. And they have to spend their three hours like this? They should first worry about suffering a mental breakdown before they even reach the apartment.

But they have to keep moving forward. Stopping here will be even more dangerous!

“Let’s go! Kexin!” Li Yin grits his teeth tightly and continues walking forward with Kexin.

They cannot die!

They absolutely cannot die!

At this moment, every step they take feels as if they are walking on thin ice.

Luckily, for the large majority of the remaining time span, nothing unusual happens. This peaceful and quiet time continues on for about two more hours. They have already reached the area outside the mountain. If everything goes smoothly, they should arrive at the foot of mountain soon.

But as long as they are not in the apartment, there is nowhere in the world can be considered safe so they still cannot relax their wound-up nerves.

“Kexin…”

“What’s the matter? Li Yin?”

Li Yin takes a deep breath and says, “If you can return alive… go confess to Xia Yuan. At least, don’t live your life with any regrets. Your feelings towards him are actually very deep, right?”

Kexin’s face instantly turns red.

“Alright… I, I will consider it.”

Finally, when they walk down to the foot of the mountain without any further complications. Li Yin sees their car. He initially worried that the car might have disappeared but now it seems like he was just overthinking.

After opening the car door, Li Yin retrieves his car key and inserts it into the car. Only when the car door open do both he and Kexin finally breathe a sigh of relief. Settling into the seat, Li Yin turns the ignition switch.

Kexin shuts the doors before buckling her seat belt.

The car starts up smoothly, causing Li Yin to feel somewhat surprised. He a.s.sumed that something would interrupt this process.

But… both of them did not notice that… on the back seat, a huge puddle of water has actually acc.u.mulated!

“So, you’re here as well?”

City K, inside of the apartment.

At this moment, two people have gathered in the lobby on the first floor. They are surgeon Tang Lanxuan and the always gloomy Tang Wenshan.

In reality, according to their timing calculations, Li Yin and the other three will not return so soon. But Tang Lanxuan worries about them so much that he has difficulty sleeping. After waking up, he decided to just put on his clothes and come down to the ground floor to wait for them.

Tang Lanxuan is actually a bit surprised that Tang Wenshan is there as well.

But seeing that Tang Wenshan retains that gloomy expression as cold as frost, Tang Lanxuan does not anything and merely sits down on the sofa.

“Who knows… how many of them can return here?”

As worried thoughts run through Tang Wenxuan’s mind, the elevator doors suddenly open and two more people walk out. They are the couple, Hua Liancheng and Yi w.a.n.g.

“Ah, Liancheng, Yi w.a.n.g!” Tang Lanxuan stands up immediately and says, “You also couldn’t fall asleep and come down to wait for Li Yin and the rest?”

Hua Liancheng nods his head before Yi w.a.n.g says, “I am truly worried about the four of them… Especially Li Yin and Kexin. I hope at least both of them can return alive…”

These two people also sit down on the sofa so that the three of them can at least chat a little bit. Otherwise, the ambience is simply too depressing.

“Xia Yuan will probably also come down early to wait down here,” Tang Lanxuan looks at the clock hanging on the wall of the lobby and says, “The residential representative cares a lot about us.”

Although everyone says a few sentences, the depression in their hearts makes it difficult for them to continue talking about any topic. After a short while, the conversation will sink into silence. “They can definitely return alive,” Yi w.a.n.g says resolutely. “Definitely!”

Li Yin’s car will enter the city after pa.s.sing just one more toll stand.

Driving along this road, Li Yin’s heart is on tenterhooks.

Don’t come out… at least, don’t come out right now…

And at this same time, five pale fingers begin to extend from that puddle of water on the backseat! But Li Yin and Kexin remain blissfully unaware.

Following this, an entire hand has already reached out. And then, another hand…

A hideous face filled with grudging hatred starts to float out of the water before that puddle of water starts to contract and form into the appearance of that female ghost.

But Li Yin and Kexin still do not notice.

Because her figure is not reflected in the rearview mirror of the car at all!

Contrary to normal ghost stories where the rearview mirror of the car usually serves to “remind” the drivers that there is a ghost behind them, in this case it blinds them instead.

Then… her hand covered fully in water reaches towards Kexin who is concentrated only at looking towards the front…
