Apartment from Hell Chapter 1 (1/2)
Chapter 1 – The Sinister Apartment
Li Yin suddenly opens his eyes
His heart hurts intolerably, as though it is being burned in an inferno
It is here…again?
This time, is it my turn?
Li Yin props himself up and switches on the bedside lamp At this point, the intense pain of his heart is finally slightly relieved
He gets off the bed and puts on his slippers After that, he walks out of the bedrooht
He sees that thing
On the snohite wall in the living room, a line of words written in fresh blood suddenly appears If ordinary people see this extreht, they will be scared soulless
But Li Yin barely responds
“It is ain… ”
He carefully inspects the line of words
“Froe of Tranquil Water by X city’s cityside and live there for this entire month”
This line of creepy blood words blurs i it It see the blood Gradually, it…disappears
The Village of Tranquil Water…
Li Yin memorizes this name
Although he wants to go back to bed, it is iain So instead, he turns on the living roohts, makes himself a cup of tea and starts to drink it He has no habit of s so tea is a substitute Perhaps coffee will achieve a better effect But Li Yin always feels that savoring the aroma of the tea is the easiest way to calm his mood
Looking at the reflection of his face on the surface of the tea, Li Yin grasps the cup tightly
It has been… almost one year since he moved into this apartment
Although one year cannot be considered long, to Li Yin it feels like countless years have already passed
The next day, when the early ins to rise, Li Yin who curled up by the dining table wakes up
He fell asleep wearing only a thin pajaht cause him to catch a cold
The tea leftover in the teacup in front of the table is already completely cold
He checks the wall clock in the living room It is already… 6 am
Li Yin rubs his eyes, before washi+ng up and dressing neatly Afterwards, hethat he slips between two slices of bread he bought yesterday and applying a small dash of salad sauce This will be it for today’s breakfast
Li Yin is actually very proficient at cooking Because he has lived alone for a long ti, he has naturally learned a variety of delicious cuisines
Biting into the ho out the milk froins to make plans for the next month – the month of June
He is an web novelist As he is quite well-known on the internet, he is already currently in a writing contract with a company So normally, he only needs to write at ho
“It won’t really be a proble into his sandwich, he says to hi my notes with me in June and post new chapters ofthat time”
He puts down the calendar down, then chews the bread and fried egg inside of his htly into fists
I must stay alive… I must come back here alive!
After putting on his clothes, he walks out of his room, but does not lock the door
His room number on the 4th floor, room 404, is very inauspicious But he was not the one who could make the decision on which room he wanted
He comes down to the 1st floor of the apartment There are no residents on the 1st floor It is instead a huge reception room similar to that of a hotel There are sofas and chairs placed everywhere in the reception room for people to rest
There are 3 people sitting on one of the sofas
Seeing Li Yin co towards them, those three people stand up simultaneously
One is a bespectacled tallboy wearing a hat, and the last one is a young lady in a green western-styled dress with a very cute and pretty face
“You guys… Did that line of bloody words appear on your walls as well?” Li Yin contemplates for a second, and asks
Those three people all nod coincidentally
They are all residents of this apartment
“So it is like that Then at least this time, I will have 3 teammates” Li Yin feels a bit relieved, and sits doith them
The 4 of them have equally serious expressions
“Li Yin… ” Looking very worried, the pretty young lady in green says, “Will we really… be okay? This time, we need to stay for a whole e that is far away from city? ”
“Yeah,” the bespectacled man in the suit says: “I checked the e mountains It is very desolate and remote Not even the Hope Crew (1) can make contact with thee”
“China has far too es” Li Yin rees so disparate from the cities, there are definitely not just a few Don’t think too much Anyway, this isn’t the first time”
“But…I’more but he is stopped by the boy in the hat
The atain descends abruptly into silence
Another long period of ti up Probably, the bloody words that materialised on the walls of the house only appeared in front of the four of them
“It’s almost seven” Li Yin looks at his watch and says, “The three of you can head to work first I’ll continue to wait here If there are new uys”
Li Yin’s calmness and acuity help them feel secure So one by one, these 3 people stand up and leave the apartment
Just then, Li Yin is already accessing on the internet on his phone, but he still cannot find any infore of Tranquil Water But since it was already said that it is at the borders of X city, they will find it eventually
