Chapter 923 Threatening Gift
While opening the lid, the girl was also checking her text messages on her phone.
When she looked into the box, she froze. The phone and the lid of the gift box fell from her hands. The girl also sat down on the ground with weak legs and let out a belated scream.
I just got home and the air conditioner is not turned on yet, and the floor-to-ceiling windows are open.
At this moment, a breeze blew over with hot air, and the gauze curtains made a rustling sound. Shen Pianpian turned her head sensitively, and her frightened and trembling pupils only reflected the rustling curtains and the empty balcony.
It's quiet inside.
She moved slowly, crawled to the edge of the table, and carefully stuck her head out.
Then the object in the box was reflected closely in the dark pupils.
Her whole body began to tremble.
That's a "human head."
Black hair, beautiful face, bright red teardrop mole, and big dark eyes.
That was her head.
The area below the head was covered in scarlet blood.
A pair of dark eyes reflected a cold luster in the light.
Shen Pianpian quickly jumped back and grabbed the phone.
She leaned against the sofa, curled up into a ball, and in just a few breaths her back was covered in cold sweat.
At this moment, this quiet and spacious space could not give her any sense of security.
But the girl didn't scream again.
She started to make a phone call while biting her fingers and scanning the entire room. Whenever there was any movement, she would immediately look over like a frightened bird.
When the call was finally picked up, she couldn't wait and lowered her voice as much as possible, and spoke tremblingly.
"Security? Please come up to the 36th floor right now."
"Don't hang up."
The girl was breathing rapidly, her eyes not daring to linger on the gift box for even a moment.
Even just listening to the security guard's breathing made her feel a little more at ease.
Until the door was carefully knocked, and a familiar voice sounded at the same time outside the door and on the phone,
"Hello Miss, we are here."
Shen Pianpian immediately stood up and almost crawled to open the door.
It didn't take long, but beads of sweat were already on the girl's forehead. She walked out of the door without even looking back and pointed inside.
"Someone of you go and take a look."
Two security guards came up, both wearing police uniforms and carrying batons.
After hearing her words, one of the security guards walked into the room, while the other stayed outside.
Shen Pianpian calmed down a little. She slowly adjusted her disordered and frightened breathing, grabbed a handful of sweaty hair, turned and walked to Cheng Zhiyuan's room next door, pressed the password, opened the door and walked in.
She turned on the light, left the door open, and walked over to the sofa and sat down.
The security guard at the door was standing guard respectfully and would glance into the room vigilantly at any time.
Shen Pianpian slowly reached out to cover her face, her tightly furrowed brows filled with fatigue after fear.
There was a slight noise outside the door, and she turned to look.
The security guard who had just entered her room to inquire about the situation has come out and seems to be talking to the security guard outside.
After a while, a security guard knocked on the door and said to her politely,
"Miss Shen, can we come in?"
"Come in."
Shen Pianpian wiped his face and cheered up a little.
The security guard came in and handed the things in his hand to her.
"Ms. Shen, the gift box doesn't contain a real human head. It's just a plastic head covered with a mask, just like the mannequin heads in clothing stores. The blood from the cut is just artificial plasma."
"Also, we found a card under the dummy's head."
Shen Pianpian reached out to take it.
