29 The House Where People Are Chased (Part 2)
◎It's catching up, it's chasing me!◎
Huang Yaruo isn't used to speaking in front of the camera. "It all started with me buying a house. I started working at 16, and when I was 35, I used all my savings plus my parents' money to buy a house. It was in a great location, and I was so happy. I thought I had my own home."
"I've been involved in the entire renovation process since the beginning. I've had complete control over everything from the wallpaper in each bedroom to the pattern and color of the flooring, even the color temperature of the lighting throughout the house."
Huang Yaruo also took out her renovation plans. "It took a full six months. I even tore it down and rebuilt it twice because I wasn't satisfied with the result. The decorators always told me to make do with what I had, but I couldn't. My entire fortune was spent on this one house, and I might never be able to afford another. I wanted to achieve perfection and not leave myself with any regrets."
"After six months of renovation, I started decorating the space. I carefully selected all the furniture. I really like the sofa I chose; it's so comfortable."
Zhu Ning listened and felt something was wrong. It seemed like a home renovation guide video.
Huang Yaruo choked up when she said this: "But I didn't expect that after only three months of living here, something strange would happen."
Zhu Ning concentrated, this should be the key point.
Huang Yaruo said: "At the beginning, it was very small things, such as when I woke up the next morning, I would change the position of the sofa at home."
Huang Yaruo took out two photos and showed them to the audience, "My sofa originally faced the TV cabinet."
In the first photo, a red fabric sofa is indeed facing the TV cabinet. This is a very conventional decoration, and most people place it this way.
“But, the next day I woke up and the couch was facing the wall.”
Huang Yaruo took out the second photo, and just as she said, the red sofa was facing the wall with its back to the TV cabinet, and was right next to it.
"At first I thought my house was burglarized or someone was playing a prank, but there was no sign of anyone entering my house. I live alone and I installed a security electronic lock, so I would definitely know if someone came in."
"I told my friends about this, and they asked me if I was hallucinating because of stress, or if I didn't sleep well and was sleepwalking in the middle of the night."
"I thought it was possible, so I stayed at a friend's house for three days before returning home. I saw nothing unusual at home, so I slept there again. The next day, when I woke up—" Huang Yaruo choked up as she spoke, "The next day, the position of the furniture had changed again. I can show you a video."
The video ended, and Zhu Ning wanted to watch the next video, so she clicked on another video.
The video was shaky and contained a woman's terrified gasps. All the furniture in the video had been repositioned, with the red sofa facing the wall.
Double-door wardrobes, refrigerators, televisions, dining tables, and all other large furniture in the house should face the wall.
The furniture... looked like rows of people standing with their backs to each other.
This is an old post, someone replied below:
"The poster is just trying to attract attention. He moved furniture in the middle of the night and now comes here to attract traffic."
"You must be crazy about being famous."
"Is there a team? I've seen similar posts online before, but they're outdated, sister."
"Would the host like to call me a master?"
"That's not right. I, a man, can't even move some of the furniture. How can she, a woman, move it?"
There is another video below. This time, Huang Yaruo's mental state is even worse, her face is sallow, her hair is messier, and there are two dark circles under her eyes.
She seems to have aged a lot.
"I've read everyone's replies. First of all, I don't have a team, and I'm not trying to attract attention. I really have a problem."
"I've tried all the ideas suggested by some kind-hearted people, including installing surveillance cameras, but they didn't capture anything. If you want evidence, I can also link it below so you can analyze for yourself whether it's true or not."
"Someone suggested I tie myself up, which I did. I handcuffed myself to the bed, and when I woke up the next day, the furniture was still facing away from me. It really wasn't me who did it. I'm not sleepwalking, and I don't have schizophrenia."
"I've tried all sorts of masters, exorcists, and necromancers. They all made a mess of it, and it was useless. I've tried everything I could."
"I can't stand it anymore. If you want to see it, there are videos below. I don't even have any money, so why should I pay a team to do this? I don't want to be famous, I just feel really uncomfortable."
"I tried not sleeping all night, and it was fine, but as soon as I closed my eyes, the furniture was like this when I woke up the next day. I beg you to help me."
Zhu Ning clicked on the evidence she presented and read it through.
In the video, Huang Yaruo installed a surveillance camera and then went to sleep. The surveillance camera recorded the whole night, and the furniture did not move and remained in its original state.
When Huang Yaruo woke up the next day, the moment the camera captured her, there was a second of screen distortion, and then what was displayed next was Huang Yaruo's scream.
The position of the furniture has changed again.
If the video was not faked or edited, then the question now is not whether Huang Yaruo has the strength to move the furniture. If she is not Superman, it is impossible for her to change the appearance of all the furniture in the house within a second.
Even if you find a demon hunter, it won't be possible to do it in a second.
This time the comments section was much more serious than last time, and some people actually wanted to give her advice.
"Fuck, that's scary. Does the landlord want to move?"
"Why can they control the surveillance? Is this really a supernatural event?"
"Surveillance fraud?"
"It's hard to sell this house like this. What a shame. I spent my life's savings on a haunted house."
"Actually, if no one wants to harm you, you can just live here like this. Just think of your furniture as being a little weird, but it's still habitable."
"It just looks weird, but it doesn't mean to hurt anyone."
"I also think that the house looks harmless, otherwise it would have killed the owner long ago."
"Alas, if I bought the house, I wouldn't be willing to leave."
A month later, Huang Yaruo released another video.
This time Huang Yaruo could no longer hold back and she kept crying in front of the camera.
"I felt like I couldn't stand it anymore. I spent my life savings to buy this house, and I tried to grit my teeth and live in it, but it didn't work. I started moving the furniture back every day, but as soon as I closed my eyes, the furniture moved again."
"Then I thought, I'll just live like this. At worst, I can just change my living habits. But I sat on the sofa facing the wall and didn't know what to do. I lived there for three days and I felt like a monster."
Generally, home decoration design must take ergonomics into consideration, and the height and placement of furniture must conform to the homeowner's habits.
But if all the furniture in your home is not placed in accordance with human habits, and they all face away from the owner, people living in it will suffer a mental breakdown.
Zhu Ning felt this was very strange. Isn't this spiritual pollution? Making normal people do abnormal things, or making abnormal people do normal things.
Then repeat over and over again.
The only difference is that this time, it was a living person who forcibly changed the living habits she had established over thirty years and broke her cognition as a human being.
The house won't kill her, but staying in such a house for a long time will either make her go crazy or turn into a monster.
Half a month later, Huang Yaruo posted another video.
Huang Yaruo has lost a lot of weight, probably because she often doesn't sleep or eat much. She now weighs only about 70 pounds.
Through the video, Zhu Ning watched helplessly as a healthy woman was being eaten away.
Huang Yaruo's video this time was particularly short: "I really can't stand it anymore. I'm going to move out. Wish me good luck. I'm going to give up this house. Thank you all for your comfort and support."
The comment section is filled with support and understanding.
There were a few doubts mixed in, they were still questioning the authenticity of the post, saying they wanted to help Huang Yaruo get rid of the ghost.
Two weeks later, Huang Yaruo posted a new video saying that she had moved.
The video shows Huang Yaruo’s new home. It is very small, with one bedroom and one living room, but it looks very warm.
Huang Yaruo said that she is currently recovering her work and rest schedule and diet, and feels that she has finally breathed a sigh of relief and can return to her normal life. As long as she persists, Huang Yaruo will be able to get rid of the shadow of the past.
The door to a new life is opening for her.
Many people in the comment section below are wishing her a happy new life.
But there were also harsher voices: "Hey, you finally can't pretend anymore, are you going to start selling goods next?"
"I also feel a little strange. Everyone should be alert. This may be a scam."
Zhu Ning frowned, thinking that this matter might not be over yet.
Sure enough, when I scrolled down, I found that only five days had passed. Five days later, Huang Yaruo released a video again.
This time, Huang Yaruo had many scars on her body. It was not known whether they were self-inflicted or beaten by others. Huang Yaruo was so thin that only a bag of bones was left, and she looked like a monster.
"I moved, thinking it was over. I didn't want the house anymore. I listed it with an agent, but I couldn't sell it even at half the price. I thought, 'Let me go. I don't want the money anymore. I don't want to live that kind of life.'"
"I don't want anything, I just want to be normal."
"But I didn't expect it to catch up," Huang Yaruo said, her eyes already turning angry. She stared at the camera intently, as if she could look directly at the audience behind it. "I didn't expect it to catch up."
"It's caught up, it's chasing me!"
Hunted? How does the house hunt?
Zhu Ning immediately clicked on the next video. In the video, Huang Yaruo carefully pushed open the door, and the voice-controlled lights lit up in the dark corridor.
I saw a house opposite her house with Room 101 written on it.
Zhu Ning had seen this door before. Huang Yaruo had specifically shown it to him when she introduced the decoration. It was a color that many people would not choose for a door.
The forest green gate has a red wooden sign hanging on it that reads: Warm little home.
Zhu Ning didn't react for a moment. Isn't this Huang Yaruo's original home?
"This is my home," Huang Yaruo said, her voice filled with fear. "I'm not mistaken. This is my home. I decorated it myself. It's caught up with me."
Comment below: "This is really a bit scary."
"Did the OP offend someone? Is someone playing a trick on you?"
"Did your neighbor across the street renovate a door similar to yours?"
"Such a huge cost? Who has nothing to do? Why don't you try knocking on the door?"
"Who's in there?"
"Don't listen to them, don't knock on the door! Don't knock! Run! Run!"
Huang Yaruo then moved to a new house in another neighborhood. This time, the incident was even more bizarre, and Huang Yaruo recorded another video.
The picture is very shaky and Huang Yaruo herself does not appear in the picture.
"That house has caught up with us again," Huang Yaruo was shaking as she spoke. "It always makes strange noises in the middle of the night. Let me show you what it is."
The video was probably shot in the middle of the night. Huang Yaruo opened the door and carefully stuck the camera out, and sure enough, she captured the green door directly opposite her house.
The green door was hidden deep in the corridor. The voice-controlled light was not turned on. In the darkness, the green door was surprisingly conspicuous.
Late at night, a noise was heard from behind the green door.
Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
It sounded like someone was boxing inside, and the sound echoed throughout the corridor. The video never ended, and the screen was facing the green door, and Huang Yaruo's terrified voice could be heard.
"It seems like there's someone inside," Huang Yaruo lowered her voice, "Who lives in my house?"
Huang Yaruo's hands were shaking so much that every time she shook, the whole picture shook.
Suddenly, the boxing stopped.
After listening to the continuous noise for a long time, when the boxing stopped, the whole corridor fell into an eerie silence.
"Mother--"
Suddenly, a voice came from the darkness, "Mom."
Mother--
Huang Yaruo froze.
"It's calling me?" Huang Yaruo asked uncertainly, "Did you hear it? It's calling me... Mom?"
Mommy mommy——
Late at night, deep in the dark corridor, a green door is calling for mother.
"I don't have children, I don't have children, I'm going crazy." Huang Yaruo ran home in horror and the video ended.
The following discussion is more interesting this time.
"Did the OP abandon a child? Is this karma?"
"If that's the case, then there's nothing to sympathize with, trash girl."
"Is this the legendary revenge?"
Huang Yaruo released another video response.
"I don't want to respond anymore. I just want to say one thing: I don't have any children. I really have never had any children. I'm a DINK."
Huang Yaruo said these words very solemnly in front of the video: "I am not the kind of person who abandons her children."
"I don't know why it called me, so don't ask."
"I'm moving. I'm moving away."
Every time Huang Yaruo moved, she would release a notice, and at first netizens would wish her well in welcoming her new life. But after this happened too many times, netizens' advice became powerless.
Huang Yaruo has moved houses four times. Every time, everything was fine when she first moved in, but when she woke up the next day, the door opposite her house would turn into a green door.
There is a sign hanging on it: Warm little home.
Moreover, there would be very strange noises coming from the house in the middle of the night, with someone making banging noises and someone calling her mother, as if someone else was living there.
Even Zhu Ning was stunned. This matter was a bit too much and beyond his understanding.
The post was almost at the end, with only one video left to watch. Zhu Ning took a deep breath and clicked on the last video.
Huang Yaruo laughed heartily at the camera, "I don't care anymore. I'm going crazy. If I go crazy, I'm going to take someone with me to die. It's either me or the other person who dies."
Huang Yaruo's speech was incoherent and illogical. The camera wobbled, and with a yelp, Huang Yaruo pushed the door open.
This was the sixth house she had moved to. At the end of the corridor, right opposite her door, there was a green door that looked like an eye staring at her.
That's her house.
"I'm going in. That's my home, my house! Every floor in there is mine! It's all my hard-earned money!"
"If I can't live here, why should I let someone else live here?"
"I'm going home, going home, hahahahahahahaha."
Huang Yaruo became more and more crazy as she spoke. With a snap, the camera spun and fell to the ground, only capturing one corner.
Huang Yaruo stepped across the camera in slippers, and the camera captured a sound.
Eeyore——
The green door was opened and Huang Yaruo walked in.
Then, there was a sound of "Ya Ya"—
The green gate closed, the video was disconnected, and the reading of the tomb post was completed.
Zhu Ning was slow to react, she didn't even know what happened to Huang Yaruo in the end. Huang Yaruo went into the house, so who uploaded the last video to her?
bite--

Zhu Ning glanced at the time. Half an hour had passed since she finished reading this post. She wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Zhu Ning clicked yes.
