Chapter 481 Stains



Chapter 481 Stains

Izzy followed the crowd and squeezed into the apartment where he lived.

There were too many people who needed to use the elevator. Izzy looked at the dense crowd of people in front of him and decided to take the stairs with the other people.

After being distributed to different floors, by the time Izzy reached the 17th floor where she lived, there was no one else around her.

Entering the 17th floor, Izzy just saw the elevator door open and two people squeeze out.

She recognized them at once as the couple who lived next door.

"Good evening." Izzy greeted the other person with a forced smile.

The person opposite just nodded faintly, his face full of fatigue.

Izzy knew the couple before, having lived in the town next door. They were very friendly, but soon after entering the city, they were trapped in a steel cage, and the smile on their faces gradually disappeared.

Izzy returned to his rented room and just as he closed the door, he could no longer maintain the smile on his face.

"Phew, I'm so tired." Izz's hand pressed somewhere on the wall skillfully, and the room immediately lit up.

The mysterious witchcraft facility that had made Izzy so amazed a year ago no longer moved anyone.

Izzy shrugged his shoulders, lowered his head, kicked off his shoes, and walked towards his bedroom.

She shared this small suite with another girl. They met through an agency and each had their own lock on the bedroom.

But after a year of living together, Izzy rarely locks her door anymore.

The light in the center of the room shone on Izzy, casting a shadow on the wall.

The shadow was very strange, and was much thinner than Izzy.

It looked like a skeleton without flesh and wearing clothes.

She didn't pay attention to the dark shadow on the wall, but immediately threw herself on her bed and buried her head in the pillow until she felt suffocated, then she turned over.

"I still miss the days on the farm!" She sighed. "Life in the city is tiring and boring, and there is no possibility of promotion. How are the people in the books so smart and come up with so many ideas?"

Although life in Goust is very convenient, work almost fills up the girl's entire day, leaving her with less and less time to do other things.

Moreover, her job was very monotonous and boring, which was to make parts of a certain witchcraft prop.

She had no idea what kind of magical props or facilities her creations would eventually become.

Core information is kept completely confidential to ordinary employees like them.

"In fact, I've already made a lot of money." Izzy took out the deposit receipt from under the pillow, "1, 2, 3..."

"I never dared to think of such a large amount of money before. Why don't I take the money and go home?"

Izzy calculated the total of these documents and the amount he would lose by withdrawing them early.

Ten minutes later, she lay back on the bed, holding the documents to her chest with both hands, "How about doing this for another three years?"

At this moment, she heard the sound of the door opening next door.

In order to calculate how much money he had earned, Izzy had secretly locked his door to avoid being seen by his roommate who had returned.

So when she heard the door open, she turned her head to confirm.

It was indeed the door of the bedroom next door that was opened.

It’s really strange, because her roommates always came back later than her.

When Izzy came back today, he saw that the lights in the living room were not on and the door of the bedroom next door was closed. He thought that his roommate had not come back today either.

She stuffed the receipt back under her pillow and prepared to put on her shoes and go over to say hello to her roommate.

Just as he lowered his head to put on his shoes, he suddenly heard the handle of his door move twice.

Izzy paused and looked up at the door.

Then she clearly saw the brass handle of the door slowly turn half a circle.

“Click, click…”

The handle was stuck in the middle and couldn't be turned anymore because Izzy had secretly locked it while counting the money.

The copper handle turned back and then twisted slowly again.

Izzy should have shouted "Coming, coming," and then gone to open the door.

But today, for some reason, she looked at the slowly turning handle and felt a trace of fear in her heart. She opened her mouth but couldn't speak.

She suddenly felt that the person who opened the door might not be her roommate.

But if it wasn't my roommate, then who could it be? Could it be a thief? I turned the doorknob again, but it was still stuck in the middle.

Then the person behind the door gave up.

Izzy heard the footsteps gradually moving away, towards the door.

If you listen carefully, the footsteps sound very strange, as if there is a shoe full of sand.

Izzy was a little nervous, she was wondering if it was really a thief.

However, the high-rise buildings made by the wizards require a pass to enter each floor. The door outside the room also requires a pass to open, and only the door in the bedroom has an original lock cylinder.

Izzy had put on her shoes and tiptoed to the bedroom door.

At this time, the footsteps in the living room had gone away. Izz carefully unlocked the door, opened it a crack, and looked out.

Her door was diagonally opposite the main gate, and she just happened to see someone open the door and go out.

That person was Izzy's roommate.

The other person was walking out with his head down, and the expression on his face seemed a little blurry at the junction of light and darkness.

"Ah, it's really her." Izzy breathed a sigh of relief, and her shoulders slumped. "Really, she didn't say anything, and I was scared."

Just as Izzy was about to say hello to his roommate, he saw that the other party didn't notice him and closed the door and left.

The door closed with a loud bang, which made Izzy jump all over.

She then pushed the bedroom door open completely and looked at it in confusion.

"What happened to her? Did she have a hard time leaving her job?"

The roommate came a few years earlier than Itz. Recently, she has been complaining about being too tired from work and too restricted in life. She has been planning to leave and return to the small village where she originally lived.

It is said that he has even written his resignation report.

So my roommate has been very excited during this period.

But she looked a little strange today.

Izzy was a little worried, wondering if she should chase after her roommate and ask her. She just came over to turn the handle of her bedroom, maybe she just wanted to talk to her.

But as soon as she walked out, she found that the ground was covered with black footprints.

"Oh my god, what did her shoes step on that makes them so dirty?"

Looking back again, Izzy found a dark handprint on the handle of his bedroom door.

"Why, her hand..." Izzy said halfway and suddenly became very scared.

She quickly retreated to her bedroom and locked the door. She didn't even dare to stay in front of the door, but took off her shoes, climbed onto the bed, and wrapped herself tightly with the quilt.

All of a sudden, several strange stories circulating in the city appeared in Izzy's mind one by one, causing the girl's muscles all over her body to tremble uncontrollably.

In the corridor, the girl who had just left the room walked slowly with her head down.

But it took more than ten seconds to walk the distance of three or four meters.

Then she stopped in front of a closed door. She turned the doorknob first, but without a pass, the door could not be opened at all.

The girl stopped moving, as if she was hesitating or thinking.

Then she raised her hand.

“Boom boom boom…”

Knocked on the door a few times.

There were voices coming from the room.

"Who is it?"

The girl looked dazed and didn't say anything. Instead, after hearing the response, she knocked on the door a few more times with greater force.

"Here they come, here they come!" This time there were clear voices and the sound of rapid footsteps coming from behind the door.

The dull-looking girl raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

However, at this moment, a black tentacle suddenly stretched out from the stairwell and instantly swept the girl away.

Then, the door that had been knocked opened and a man walked out.

He looked at the empty corridor in confusion, thinking he had heard it wrong.

"Who is it?" the wife shouted in the house.

"No one. Is Xiaobao knocking on the wall again?"

"Beat him."

The man shook his head and smiled. Just as he was about to go back, he saw a few black spots on the door.

He reached out and touched it, and tiny black flakes began to fall off.

I overslept... This chapter is from yesterday...
