After closing your eyes, darkness enveloped everything. However, this darkness did not represent despair and loneliness. Instead, it made people feel as if they were in a huge bubble that could accommodate all fantasies.

Memory and reality are intertwined like a dream. As we move forward step by step, the hard shell of the real world is opened.

Chen Ge now understood why all nightmare-level daily tasks required one to complete them with one's eyes closed.

What he wants to enter is another world, and what he wants to see is the obsession hidden behind the real world.

Counting the stairs silently in his mind, Chen Ge quickly reached the second floor by holding on to the wall.

I can feel the dust on the wall with my fingertips, smell the faint smell of mold with my nose, and hear the sound of my own footsteps echoing in my ears. At this moment, the insurmountable visual barriers are hidden, and the world becomes a little different.

"There is nothing wrong with Baihu, which means he is not in danger for the time being. The first and fourth floors are equipped with lights, and the real trouble lies above the fourth floor."

It was not too difficult for Chen Ge to go upstairs blindfolded. He could restore the scene in the corridor in his mind, and his body had already gotten used to the height of the stairs. Now all he needed to do was to concentrate, not be distracted by anything, and slowly walk to the top of the building.

"I should be on the second floor now."

Chen Ge was about to go to the third floor when he suddenly heard a fierce quarrel coming from a household in the corridor on the second floor.

"All you do is drink every day! Have you ever cared about the life and death of me and my child? From the time I got pregnant until now, you didn't say a word and I paid for every checkup. And I'm really fed up with your mother's face!"

"If you feel wronged, just get out! If you hadn't left without locking the door, Dabao wouldn't have been lost!"

"You're blaming me, aren't you? You wanted to leave in the middle of the night, and I was pregnant with my second child. Did a dog eat your heart?"

"Don't be so unreasonable. I'll say it again. I was going to work that day!"

The sound insulation of the floor is actually quite good, but the couple quarreled very fiercely and even seemed to start fighting.

About ten seconds later, Chen Ge heard the door open and someone walked out of the house. Judging from the footsteps, the other person was wearing leather shoes, so it should be the man.

The quarrel continued, and the man slammed the door while cursing.

There were footsteps in the corridor, and a strong smell of alcohol approached Chen Ge. The man suddenly stopped yelling after entering the stairs. He seemed to be startled by Chen Ge standing in the corridor.

The footsteps paused for a moment, then moved downstairs and disappeared after a while.

"How much alcohol did this guy drink?"

The surroundings became quiet again, but the smell of alcohol had not completely dissipated.

Chen Ge continued to go up, counting the steps silently. When he reached the third floor, he suddenly felt something strange.

"Why do I still smell alcohol?"

"If that man has left, the smell of alcohol should have completely dissipated, unless he was following me!"

A picture emerged in Chen Ge's mind. He was walking in front with his eyes blindfolded, and a drunk with a twisted mind and a hideous face was following behind him.

"When people are under a lot of pressure, they do get pleasure from bullying the weak." Chen Ge did not turn around. If the other party was a bad guy, it would be fine, but he was afraid of another situation.

"On the way here, I heard from the driver that someone was killed in this building a while ago, and the victim was drunk, so the person following me might not be a human."

The nose could clearly smell the odor of alcohol, but the ears could not hear anything.

"I've just reached the third floor and I've run into problems. I still have to walk a dozen floors..."

Fear itself can be overcome, but what is difficult to overcome is the unknown. Chen Ge is now in a very tangled situation.

This nightmare daily task is much more difficult than he imagined. Now that he has just reached the third floor, he should have no problem giving up the task decisively and escaping.

But if you go further, the risk of abandoning the mission will become greater and greater.

"The probability of a nightmare-level daily task being refreshed is very low. If I give up this time, I don't know when I will encounter it again next time."

After staying on the third floor for a while, Chen Ge started walking towards the fourth floor.

After getting closer to the light, even with his eyes closed, Chen Ge could vaguely feel the change in light. He could be sure that this was the fourth floor.

"I've walked a quarter of the way, and there are no problems for the time being."

Holding onto the wall, Chen Ge carefully moved towards the fifth floor. While lifting his leg, his shoe suddenly knocked over something.

The sound is crisp, like a porcelain bowl.

He slowly squatted down and groped on the ground, his fingertips touched the apple, steamed white rice, and two wooden chopsticks.

The chopsticks seemed to be stuck in the white rice, and you could feel that one end was sticky.

"Putting rice in the hallway? Something happened on this floor, too?"

There are only lights installed on the first and fourth floors of the entire building, which inevitably makes people think too much.

After putting the bowl and chopsticks back in place, Chen Ge cupped his hands towards the bowl and chopsticks and said, "I'm so sorry, please forgive me. If you want to make it up, you can come home with me when I leave, and you can take whatever you like."

After finishing speaking, Chen Ge left the fourth floor and walked towards the fifth floor.

The last ray of light disappeared. Chen Ge turned his back to the light source on the fourth floor and walked up slowly step by step.

He walked from the fifth floor to the sixth floor, and finally to the seventh floor, when the smell of alcohol around him disappeared.

"Have you left?"

"If the other person is the man who died a few days ago, and he followed to the seventh floor and suddenly left, it means that there may be something more terrifying than him above the seventh floor, and he didn't dare to come up."

"Another possibility is that there is something terrifying standing in front of me, and this new guy scared the man away."

It's a very uncomfortable feeling to know what's in front of you but not be able to see it.

"The white cat has no warning, which means it's acceptable."

Chen Ge bent down slightly and lowered his center of gravity to prevent himself from falling accidentally.

Slowing down, Chen Ge moved upwards little by little, but just as he raised his arm and then put it down, he froze in place.

The touch from the fingertips is no longer the cold wall, but has a hint of elasticity, just like human skin.

After standing there for a few seconds, Chen Ge's hand slowly slid, and through the touch from his fingertips, he was sure that he had touched a human face!

His Adam's apple rolled, and Chen Ge's body seemed to freeze.

If someone else came over, they might have screamed out of fear, but Chen Ge didn't. He remained amazingly calm.

Chen Ge applied a little force with his fingers and understood two things through the touch.

First, this is a child's face; second, the face is icy cold, as if it had just been taken out of a freezer, so the person on the face must not be a human.

"The nose is very straight. I remember this face."

Chen Ge remembered the missing person notice he saw on the wall when he first entered the corridor.

The child on the notice had a similar face.
