The layer of this whole mansion was just simple. Above for rooms and kitchen, bathroom below. There's only one comfort room on the second floor but it's not working anymore.
Su Ci Yi was acting to look a little scared to blend with the current situation.
Chua Ting seated near them and was nearly hugging Qin Tao.
The dripping sound now came into stop but the three of them were still glued to each other. Qin Tao pulled his high definition camera and started to click randomly hoping to capture something. Chua Ting was a scared cat that would need to hold the hand of anyone near her just to feel secure. Her heartbeat was beating fast and her breath was rigid. It so happened that she didn't know when she took the hand of Su Ci Yi while they are walking slowly into the source of the sound.
"Master, is there anyone here?"Qin Tao looked excitedly in her direction.
Su Ci Yi nodded. Indeed, there was someone behind that direction.
The night was so dark compared to any other night. the eerie quietness reverberated on the entire mansion. Only the squeaking sound of the rats running wildly on rotted plywoods and the loud sound of sparrow could be heard.
The sound of the water earlier came outside the door. It was clearly heard as if it only came to form the other end of the door.
Su Ci Yi slowly turned the doorknob open and peek-outside, then she dragged the two out when she observed that no one was there.
SQUISH.
They were startled.
A sound of someone stepping into a slimy liquid was noticed and each one look at their own feet.
Just as Su Ci Yi look down Chua Ting shouted "Blood!"
Under her own very eyes, she saw a trail of red liquid on the floor.
Chua Ting paled even more.
Ling Mo who was at the other end of the room came to go to where the commotion was. What he saw was the pale face of someone.
"B-blood...I step on blood..."
Chua Ting repeated it again but this time it is not a shout anymore though her voice is trailing.
Ling Mo could also see the red liquid that she had stepped upon and later sigh. "This is only a tomato sauce."
Chua Ting froze.
Su Ci Yi bent down and tried to examine it. Just as her hunch is. This is not the real thing.
Chua Ting now relaxed seeing that its not the real deal. The real problem lies with the question "Who dares to prank on them?" Is this some of the pranks that this film added in order to gain the essence of horror?!
Ling Mo, "It's not the crew who set this up. I just know someone who has this kind of habit."
Remembering something, Chua Ting gasped again and said, "We heard also the sound of dripping water earlier..."
Hearing this, Ling Mo sneered " Of course I also heard it! It's pretty loud that I can hear it clearly into my room." he then fished his phone out and dialed someone on it. Not later a few steps from them they heard a loud vibrating sound. It's the same frequency as they heard from the sound of water earlier. Su Ci Yi pulled something underneath the carpet and pulled the latest edition of Samsung Galaxy Pro. She picked it up when someone harshly grabbed it from her.
Shui Zi immediately took her phone and set it on silent mode. Then she looked up at the people in front of her as if nothing happened.
Ling Mo only just shrugged at the attitude displayed by this woman. He was already accustomed to it.
Chua Ting burst into anger. She was so nervous and frantic earlier that she felt she would gonna have a heart attack! "Was it fun playing prank?"
Shui Zi replied apathetically " It's fun seeing people pissing their pants from nervousness."
Chua Ting, "You bitch!"
Shui Zi signals a f*ck u symbol on her hand.
Chua Ting was trying to hold out her anger. She thought that she's only experienced this emotion from her aunt, who knows that there are people who exist with the same mentality as her aunty. She looked at Su Ci Yi hoping to see the same expression but what she only saw was the blank and unemotional deep eyes of hers. She may think that she was hiding it properly but Chua Ting could clearly see the bottomless pit on those hollow eyes. It was as if, the world did not revolve around her but it was her who's having the world at the palm of her hands.
"Just continue that attitude, don't you know that we are being recorded? Aren't you afraid that your true nature would be exposed to the public?" Chua Ting threatened.
"Oh about that, I don't think the Director would release that clip who could make even his career-worsen aren't he?"
Saying this, Shui Zi looked up on the camera and showed her a sarcastic smile.
