Hiding here?"
"Um, hiding in the cupboard, there's plenty of room."The boy struggled to lift the clothes pressed against his body, his skin was covered in a red rash, "I won't harm you, this cupboard can hide in a lot of people."
Strange noises came vaguely from the wardrobe behind the boy, as if they were suppressed cries for help, and Miaomiao Zhu was worried that as soon as she opened the door to the other cupboard, she saw her colleague's body folded inside.
"My dad and mum are coming soon, they have a terrible temper, you'd better hurry over."The boy's voice was soft, he never seemed afraid to speak up, "If my dad and mum find you, you'll be chopped up."
It was hard to imagine that such words as chopped up would come out of a child's mouth, Zhu Miaomiao gripped the fire axe tightly, at this time the only thing that could bring her a sense of security was the axe in her hand.
"My dad and mum are fierce, they destroy everything and hate to kill everything in the most vicious way."The boy waved his hands and gestured to Zhu Miaomiao, "They are as tall as three metres, dad is very strong and mum often picks up sharp objects, they resent each other, but their bodies are fused together and there is no way to get rid of each other."
Under the boy's description, Zhu Miao Miao uncomfortably imagined a monster.
Rude males three metres tall and females wielding sharp objects twisted together as they shambled down the corridor, constantly hunting other colleagues.
Just as these thoughts popped into her head, Zhu Miao Miao heard heavy footsteps suddenly appear in the corridor.
"Don't talk!My dad and mum are coming over!"
The boy covered his mouth, and Zhu Miaomiao was too nervous to breathe hard.
As the footsteps approached, the sounds of a man and a woman arguing and insulting each other came into the house.
"Stinking bitch!I will strangle you to death!"
"Am I wrong?You're a wimp, you only know how to be a wimp, I'm so lucky that my son isn't your seed."
", I will kill you!"
All sorts of filthy words even Zhu Miaomiao, an adult, couldn't listen to, and it was hard to imagine their children's inner reaction every time they heard these words.
Shoes stepped on broken glass, the woman's nails scratched the wall, all the strange noises suddenly all disappeared as they passed by Zhu Miaomiao's door.
Palms covered in sweat, Zhu Miaomiao felt that the monster was right outside the door, and she tilted her head.
The window for decoration above the door frame was squeezed open by something hard, a strand of hair fell into the house, Zhu Miaomiao's face turned white with fear, she was almost unsteady on her feet when the sound of the door lock being opened suddenly came from the hallway.
The black hair that was about to enter the house slowly withdrew, and the monster seemed to leave.
Zhu Miaomiao didn't dare to open the door, she carefully flattened the fire axe, took out her own mobile phone from her pocket, stuck it on the most edge of the small window on the door frame, and exposed the camera.
Tiptoe, Zhu Miao Miao stared at the mobile phone screen, she just looked at a glance, her heart will be uncontrollably beating wildly.
The picture in the screen was not too clear, vaguely able to see, there is a three-metre-high deformed man's body close to the wall, standing on the opposite side of the door of the house.
His arms were several times thicker than normal people, and there was a woman wrapped around his body, the two of them growing together, his four eyes staring at the lock of the door that had just emitted a strange noise, his gaze was sinister and malicious, causing people to feel incomparably fearful!
"Monster!"That horrible monster was almost the same as the ghosts and monsters Zhu Miaomiao had imagined herself, it could even be said that it was as if the monster had changed according to her imagination.
Biting her lips tightly, Zhu Miaomiao managed not to make a sound, cold sweat slid down her forehead to her chin, she knew before joining the Bureau of Investigation that she might meet a monster, but she didn't expect the day to come back so quickly!
A vein rose on her neck, Zhu Miaomiao didn't dare to make any sound and her arms froze, she didn't dare to move at all.
The silence on the corridor stayed like this for a while, the people hiding in the opposite house probably thought that the monster had left and they wanted to check the situation.
The doorknob slowly turned, and the old flat door was slowly opened a crack.
The people inside the house did not yet know that the monster was hiding right next to them, Zhu Miao Miao's heart was in her throat at this point.
"It seems to be safe."
A familiar voice came out from the house, it was the voice of another newcomer.
The door panel was slowly pushed open, the faces of his colleagues appeared in the gap, the horrible monster followed and moved its body, the deformed man clenched his fists, and the deformed woman grasped the sharp knife.
A chilling, brightly shining tip of the blade hovered above that face.
"Watch out!"
There was no way for Zhu Miaomiao to sit back and watch, she pushed open the door of the room at the last moment, lifted the fire axe and loudly warned, "The ghost is at the door!"
The deformed man and woman turned their heads at the same time, Zhu Miaomiao's legs were weak with fear, she didn't dare to resist at all, her mind couldn't generate any other thoughts, fear made her instinctively start to run away.
The investigator hiding in the opposite house also reacted, but when he tried to close the door it was already too late.
The deformed man pulled open the door panel with one hand, and as if he were drunk, he staggered, incredibly roughly, into the house.
The man seemed to have done this sort of thing often in the life of a child, and some of his habits remained from the past.
"I'll hold it off!You guys go first!"The burly driver's voice echoed through the rental house, followed by the sound of breaking glass and heavy objects hitting the ground as the burly investigator, the most reliable of them all, seemed to be pushed downstairs.
As he drew the monster's attention, though, the rest of the rookie investigators and Shirahashi ran out.
"Spread out and find rooms to hide in!Find clues and rules!The way out of an abnormal event is often hidden amongst the site of the abnormal event!"Shirahashi tried to calm everyone down, but the fear-ridden newcomers simply ignored her, and within the training that the Bureau of Investigation received
Yung had long since forgotten all about it as they swarmed towards the stairs.
"Do not leave the site of the unusual event!You will lose yourself if you enter the mists outside the grounds!Never be able to return!"
Shirahashi's reminder was of no use at all, those newbie investigators only thought about being able to leave in a hurry, fear had long since taken root in their brains, destroying their sanity.
The hallway was filled with wailing and footsteps, everyone was running outside the building, the child who was originally hiding in the cupboard was also mixed among them, the newbie investigators who were only thinking of escaping didn't even realise that there was an extra person beside them.
"Come back!Don't let fear rule you!"
Shirahashi chased after them towards the outside of the building, where Zhu Miaomiao seemed to be the only one left.
"What to do?"
It was written on the first page of the Investigation Bureau's training code that one should never run around after being caught up in an unusual event, and once lost, one would never find their way home again.
It was clearly written in the code, but where could one hide without running around?
Zhu Miao Miao looked at the opposite room in despair, the huge and horrible monster overturned the table and wardrobe, like a tyrannical madman, all intact things into its hands will be will be destroyed.
Stepping on the blood on the floor, the deformed man slowly turned around, he carried the deformed woman and stared at Zhu Miaomiao.
As if she was the only one left in the entire building, Zhu Miao Miao's every nerve in her body trembled with fear the moment she was seen by the monster.
The monster was expanding in her field of vision, and the deformed and ugly body seemed to be growing because of her fear.
Zhu Miao Miao seemed to go back to many years ago, her childhood self was surrounded by a fire, everything in the house was burned, smoke, flames, the heat scorched her cheeks, her skin kept drying and cracking.
"Help me, is there anyone else out there ..."
The calloused hand could no longer hold the fire axe somewhat, but Zhu Miaomiao still didn't fall down, and she used all her strength to aim the axe blade at the monster.
"It's over, there's no way out."
The monster completely occupied Zhu Miao Miao's field of vision, indescribable despair filled her mind, Zhu Miao Miao felt the fire axe in her hand getting heavier and heavier, as the axe was about to fall, the sound of chains colliding with the metal guardrail suddenly came from the end of the corridor.
The deformed man's head was already sticking out in front of his eyes, but that crisp sound seemed to have a special magical power that made Zhu Miao Miao become slightly more lucid, and she looked in the direction where the sound came from.
There was a young man without the uniform of the Bureau of Investigation in the darkened hallway, running wildly towards this place.
He had pitch-black chains wrapped around his left hand, and not a trace of fear could be seen in his eyes.
With a foot on the mottled wall, the young man crashed into the monster's back, his hands grasping the chains and ruthlessly strangling the monstrous monster's neck!
"Don't be afraid!"
Hearing the young man's voice, Zhu Miaomiao seemed to be in a trance as if she had returned to the year she was six years old, when the fire was about to swallow her up, a fireman broke open the door of the room and rushed into the fire scene.
At that time, that fireman seemed to have said the same thing.
