C7 (1/2)

Xiaoye asked if I was alright? I forced a smile and said that it was fine. Let's follow the original plan.

Entering the building, Xiaoye was obviously still very scared, but my heart had calmed down a lot. I had seen Jin Congwen's spirit before, and the coldness in the house was as if it had turned the water into ice. This building still doesn't give me that feeling.

Xiaoye was trembling. After we finished setting it up, it was already 5 PM. Xiaoye was so scared that she retreated a few steps. I advised her a few times, but she still did not dare to come over.

I didn't say anything else and waited quietly. The sky outside had finally started to darken.

We lit up all the candles and made Xiaoye wear her pajamas and take some pictures from a distance. Just like that, we made up a story and we should be able to tell it.

After filming the interior of the house and the corridor, I frowned and told Xiaoye to let her stand by the window. Then I pulled open the curtain a bit and revealed my hand. Leave the rest to me.

Xiaoye's entire body was trembling, the kind of feeling where she was scared out of her wits. She walked numbly to the curtain, stood as I had said, and said in a trembling voice, Come back quickly.

I took my camera and quickly ran downstairs. When I got outside of the building, I stood in the alley and started to take photos with it. I had a vague feeling that something was wrong, especially from this angle, where Xiaoye's hand that was holding the curtain was a little green. After taking the picture, my phone continuously rang a few times, and when I picked it up, it was actually Qin Yue who called but did not pick up the phone. Previously, the call was cut off because there was no signal, so I took a deep breath and called her back. Was it still that haunted building?

I explained it to Qin Yue again. There weren't any ghosts inside the building, it was just a prank made by someone else.

After hanging up, I returned back inside the building. However, when I arrived at the second floor, I found that Xiaoye was nowhere to be seen, all the items were placed outside, even though half of the candle was burnt away, but there was no one left in the empty room.

I was startled. I called her name and searched the second floor, but there was no one there.

Since the third floor is locked, Xiaoye naturally wouldn't be able to enter the third floor. I instinctively felt that Xiaoye probably couldn't endure the fear earlier and snuck back home while I was making a phone call.

I didn't stay any longer. I patted the camera that was hanging on my chest. The delivery items were all inside. After cleaning up the candles, I left the building as well.

Although it was already night outside, the nightlife had just begun. The lights were bright and the life was noisy. I took the subway and spent a full hour to get back to the outer ring of the house.

When I went into the bathroom, I did not see Qin Yue around. After I shouted twice, she came out from the bathroom wearing her pajamas.

Then she came and hugged me, her mouth set in a grimace, and said she couldn't go to such a dangerous place in the future.

I smiled and said it was fine, I just wanted to take a few pictures, then I told Qin Yue to go to sleep. She said I was going to work all night, and the chief editor was urging me to do it tomorrow.

Qin Yue came over and kissed my lips before entering the room, telling me to rest early.

I wrote in my notebook in the living room and brought out the photo for the drawing.

But when I clicked on the first chapter, I felt something was wrong.

When we filmed, the room and the corridor were darker.

Because it was lit with candles, the walls should have been slightly yellow. However, when the photo was opened, the background light inside the wall seemed to have a faint green hue.

What made my scalp tingle was, in the photo, it wasn't just Xiaoye! On Xiaoye's back, there was a vague shadow of a person! He just kept lying on top of her!

For a moment, the hairs all over my body stood up.
