13 Movie 13‖ Door

"We should be able to get out if we find the dark room. The door will most likely appear there." Lin Haichen let out a breath.

"Really?! The door is right there, we are about to get out!!!" Xu Yaoyu exclaimed, she was so excited that she almost jumped up and set off fireworks to celebrate.

Yan Shuang couldn't help but feel happy and silently hoped so.

"We must hurry. There are only four of us left, and it's getting dark." Lin Hai said solemnly.

He looked up at the sky. The sun was setting, its afterglow gradually dimmed, and darkness was about to cover the earth.

Darkness is like a death warrant for them.

"The letter doesn't specify where this room is." Jing Ning pointed out the problem directly.

Yan Shuang thought about it. He had no experience with this, so he could only follow his own guess and said, "I have a feeling it will still be at the village chief's house. Zhiyi said in the letter that she stumbled in by accident and had never been there before, so this place must be very secluded."

"I agree with Yan Shuang's idea." Lin Hai said solemnly, "She was adopted by the village chief. It's obvious that he treats her differently than other children. She lives with him most of the time."

"Then let's go look for him at the village chief's house." Jing Ning said with a complicated expression, "There's another problem. If we go back now, we might run into him."

It has been more than an hour since they left, and I don’t know if the village chief has returned yet.

"Let's take a gamble. You have to pay to get something in return. I'll go first. If the village chief is at home, it's the same as before." Lin Haichen took off his glasses, folded them and put them in his pocket. "If I can shake him off the first time, I can shake him off the second time."

Jing Ning thought for a moment and said, "Before that, I hope you can hold on as long as possible. I'll come pick you up once I find you."

"Okay." Lin Haichen looked less steady and mature without his glasses.

The four of them came to the village chief's courtyard. Jing Ning stopped by the door and waited for Lin Haichen to take action.

Lin Haichen walked to the door, but it was closed and he couldn't see the scene inside.

Even Yan Shuang, who was standing beside him, felt his heart beating like thunder.

Humans are truly a magical species. When we don't know what the situation is like, we always like to imagine it ourselves.

With a creaky sound, Lin Haichen pushed open the door and walked in without hesitation.

"Hide well." Jing Ning ordered the other two.

Not long after, Yan Shuang saw Lin Haichen running out of the house, followed by the village chief who was about five steps away from catching up with him.

The village chief was exactly as Lin Haichen described, no longer resembling a human.

The few of them didn't quickly enter the yard until Lin Haichen took the village chief out of sight.

The three of them searched everywhere in a state of nervousness, worry and excitement. The sky outside gradually became pitch black, but they still couldn't find the door.

Yan Shuang kept recalling the contents of the letter in his mind. He felt very confused. The village chief's house was so small, where was that dark room?

He couldn't help but frown, trying to recall every word in the letter. In his heart, he silently told himself not to panic and to think calmly.

Yan Shuang began to carefully observe each room, hoping to find something unusual. However, time passed and they still found nothing.

"Can the wall be demolished?" Yan Shuang was a little annoyed.

Jing Ning: "Not on the wall."

"Am I wrong? It's not at the village chief's house." Yan Shuang blamed himself for his suggestion at that time. It was only his first time entering the game.

Jing Ning saw Yan Shuang's thoughts and said, "It's not your fault alone. No one knows where the door will appear. The fact that we can come here means that our guess is the same."

"Yes, that's what everyone thought at the time," said Xu Yaoyu.

Yan Shuang looked at Jing Ning absentmindedly and said, "In this house, apart from a few rooms and no secret doors on the walls, there is only a bed and some boxes."

Suddenly a light flashed in my mind.

He stepped forward, grabbed Jing Ning's arm, looked Jing Ning in the eye, and said quickly, "It's a dark room, right? That means there's no light. It was an accident, which means it's hard to find. The most common things in the room are wooden boxes. Zhiyi put the letters and photos in the boxes, which means she often opens these boxes."

"So?" Jing Ning met his black and shining eyes, like bright stars.

Yan Shuang was a little anxious and spoke faster and faster: "We always thought that the boxes contained props, but in fact, one of the boxes is empty. Zhiyi opened the wrong box one day. Could the room be hidden in these boxes?"

"There are at least sixty or seventy boxes in the room," Xu Yaoyu said. "Can Brother Lin still hold on?"

"Don't wait, hurry up and look for it, it's already dark." Jing Ning ran into the house, "One room per person."

The other two hurriedly followed, and Yan Shuang opened one with each hand.

"Here!" Jing Ning's voice came from the next room.

Yan Shuang walked over quickly and saw Jing Ning standing next to a box. His eyes fell on the box, which looked very ordinary and had nothing special about it.

Yan Shuang walked over to the box and leaned over to look inside. The inside of the box was pitch black, as if the endless darkness had swallowed up all the light.

"It's finally over!" Xu Yaoyu cried with joy. She had long been suffocated by the pressure of death.

"Hehehe..." A sharp laugh sounded from behind, "Is this scene good?"

Yan Shuang was startled by the sudden sound. He looked behind him and saw a beautiful girl standing in the darkness, wearing a bright red costume.

The girl's face was bright red, her muscles exposed to the air, her skull shattered beyond recognition as if struck by a sharp weapon. Only the whites of her eyes remained. Her mouth opened mechanically, and she spoke word by word: "None of you can escape!"

"Go." Yan Shuang's attention was all on the female ghost. She felt a sudden push on her back and was pushed directly into the box.

This sudden situation caught Yan Shuang completely off guard. He was pushed into the box and struggled to stand up. He looked around but couldn't find a way out. It was like a closed room.

With the faint light above his head, he saw a black door suddenly appearing not far ahead.

"The door is inside." Yan Shuang shouted at the top of her voice.

Immediately afterwards, with a "dong" sound, Xu Yaoyu came down.

Yan Shuang helped her up and asked about the situation above.

"Brother Jingning told us to go first and he would go find Doctor Lin." Xu Yaoyu burst into tears, not knowing whether she was scared or hurt from the fall.

Yan Shuang looked up and saw no movement. She thought Jing Ning and the female ghost must have gone out, and it was safe here for the time being.

But he was also a little anxious, because he was afraid that the female ghost would come back and stay here. Then they couldn't get in, but he had no way to get out either, so he could only pray that they were okay.
