Stalker in the rainy night
Jiang Yunshu decisively put his phone back into his coat pocket, stood up, tied the other end of his sleeve tightly around his right wrist, and walked step by step towards the inky night.
Climb up the handrail at the angle, turn over, stand on tiptoe, and carefully stand on the ground outside the handrail.
Jiang Yunshu turned his head to look behind him, took a deep breath in the cold wind, grabbed his sleeves with one hand, held the railing with the other, and slowly lowered his body.
Her heart was pounding wildly, not knowing when that person would suddenly appear in front of her. The situation was urgent, but she didn't dare to move hastily at all.
Focusing all his attention on the coordination of his limbs and his surroundings, Jiang Yunshu grasped the ground outside the railing with his left hand and moved out into the air.
Holding the sleeves with one hand and clinging to the outer wall of the house with the other, the girl would accidentally let go of her hand out of fear from time to time, and then frantically cling to the wall the next moment, slowly moving downwards in the darkness.
There was a blank in my ears, as if even my heart was tense, and I didn't dare to make any sound to disturb her.
Suppressing the dizziness in her head and the dry retching in her throat, she held her invisible breath high. Her limbs seemed to suddenly burst out with more vigorous and powerful strength, and her movements of climbing down became more skillful and rapid.
Like a fishing hook with a shiny bait, a girl in bright clothes grabbed her plain white sleeves and swayed twice in the darkness close to the ground.
Jiang Yunshu untied the sleeve knot on his right hand while turning his head to look to the side, thinking.
The heavy rain hit her body, and after it relaxed, a strong chill suddenly swept through her body.
Jiang Yunshu's body was trembling, and his face was deeply wrinkled as he lowered his head. He tried hard to hold it in, but he couldn't help but tremble violently and let out a muffled sneeze that he deliberately suppressed.
The sound instantly disappeared in the "clatter" of the rainstorm.
Jiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief. The knot on her hand had been untied. She subconsciously turned her head cautiously and looked around.
My sight suddenly met two eyes emitting orange fluorescence in the darkness.
Jiang Yunshu was about to let go of his hand when he suddenly stopped.
"This is……"
"What the hell?!"
Jiang Yunshu's face was stiff, and his mind was spinning wildly. "These eyes definitely can't be from a cat..."
The orange fluorescent light flickered towards her, and the warm light from the house behind her shone outward, dimly illuminating a bloody, shriveled human face in front of her.
A head of messy hair was disheveled, and amid the rumbling lightning and thunder, the cold light outlined a twisted and pale line connecting the back of the human face and head.
The limbs were shrunken to the extreme, and the figure in front of him was crawling on the ground in a twisted state. He looked like a madman, like someone infected by a virus in a doomsday novel, or like someone haunted by ghosts in a fantasy novel...
“Clatter—”
"Boom—"
The rainstorm poured down more and more fiercely, soaking Jiang Yunshu to the bone.
In the dark and stormy night, countless eyes glowing with orange and yellow fluorescence opened.
Some gather, some disperse, like a cluster of flowers.
Jiang Yunshu grasped the cold sleeves little by little with both hands, turned back suddenly, and climbed up frantically while pulling at the sleeves with all his might.
She looked calm, but tears welled up in her heart as she screamed like thunder:
"I'm just saying, I'm just saying—
"I was wondering why he was so laid back. Turns out he was absolutely certain I wouldn't be able to leave here!!!"
However, she only climbed to the second floor when she got stuck in mid-air, unable to go up or down, and didn't know where to escape.
"Going back to the fifth floor is impossible. I'm afraid I'll come face to face with that person once I get on the terrace... But going down..." Jiang Yunshu's mind was in a mess. "I don't know what those things are. They don't look like friendly creatures..."
"Sure enough, you still need a golden finger!"
Jiang Yunshu was devastated. "Why does he have a cheat and I don't?! Oh my god, you can't be so partial!"
Although he was shouting in his heart, Jiang Yunshu's eyes were looking around for a place to move to later.
Suddenly, her gaze paused and fixed on a window not far to the right.
Jiang Yunshu thought calmly, feeling a bit chilled, "What are the chances of me leaping over here, grabbing the window, and climbing into the house?"
She glanced at the hazy darkness below, her heart burning with anxiety.
Can’t wait any longer, can’t wait any longer... But, but where can she go now?
Where can I go? Where can I go?
It felt like my head was being pricked by a needle repeatedly, causing constant pain.
Amidst the wind and rain, Jiang Yunshu's mind seemed to clear up but also seemed to be in a tangle. His thoughts seemed to clear up but also seemed to be...
Because the situation is so dilemmatic that no matter how hard we try, we can't find a third way.
"Luck..." Jiang Yunshu muttered unconsciously in his heart.
There's no way to escape after all...
People always like to be self-righteous, but they are disobedient, unwilling to die, and stubbornly try to find a way to survive.
As a result, after all the busyness, I woke up halfway as if from a dream, unable to move forward or backward, and was left with nothing and confusion.
God always likes to set up such dilemmas and problems for people, asking you to make choices. If you choose a path that deviates from your predetermined destiny, God will be dissatisfied and will suppress you in every way to get you back on track.
Those who are in the situation and are full of confusion look around, praying for a clear guidance, a clear guidance that can lead them to the upward path.
Which way should we go?
It feels like I'm walking alone in the fog, unable to see the surroundings or my feet clearly. I'm panicked and confused. Will I survive if I continue forward?
What will be the final outcome?
Three parts depend on people, seven parts depend on the sky.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yunshu calmed down again.
Raindrops as big as beans hit her body with a crackling sound. She glanced at the large orange and yellow ghost lights extending outward below, holding her sleeves with one hand and taking out a mobile phone from her coat pocket with the other.
She double-checked to make sure it was indeed a rose gold phone, and the screen lit up but couldn't be unlocked.
Jiang Yunshu looked up, turned on the flashlight on his phone, and threw the phone into the darkness with all his might.
A bright white ball of light cut through the inky night, passed through the clusters of orange and yellow ghost lights in the darkness, and fell into the depths of the darkness like a guiding light.
Whether it will succeed or not depends on whether God wants her to live!
There were rustling sounds, and the large orange-yellow eyes opened in the darkness seemed to have received some kind of call. They crawled on all fours among the cobblestone roads and grass, converging towards the lighthouse.
You can't be unlucky forever, right? Really... you can't be unlucky forever, right?
“Pah…”
With her feet on the ground, the disheveled girl unconsciously grabbed her wet coat tightly with both hands and wrapped herself tightly, trying to resist the cold.
She crouched down, quickly shuttled through the darkness, and ran towards a window not far away that was slightly open.
The huge windows were lit with warm light, dimly illuminating a curled-up figure in the darkness.
The orange light reflected on his face. Jiang Yunshu looked at the scene in the glass window, and suddenly a bitter taste emerged in his mouth.
Her heart felt heavy and aching, and she suddenly felt a little miserable.
The next moment she came back to her senses, the villain in her heart said "Pooh" in disgust, and hurriedly shook her head to get rid of this weird emotion.
Huddled against the wall next to the window, Jiang Yunshu took out his cell phone to check the surveillance footage, then reached out to open the window and climbed in with difficulty.
…………
In the room on the fifth floor.
The sound of rain and wind poured into the room from outside the terrace. In the cold, a figure in black walked towards the terrace with steady steps.
The long, slender white sleeves fluttered in the darkness, and as they danced, the only light in the depths of the night appeared and disappeared in the field of vision.
In the midst of wind and rain, the scarlet vertical pupils stared at the bright light for a long time.
The figure in black took out an umbrella out of thin air and stood on the railing of the terrace. Step by step, with the warm light from the room behind him, he walked slowly towards the bright light in the darkness.
…………
Under the warm light, the warm room on the first floor was littered with corpses, a mixture of sweetness, warmth and blood.
In the corner, a girl, soaked like a water ghost, stared at the figure holding an umbrella on the outdoor surveillance screen. Her eyes were so angry that they almost spit fire, and she gnashed her teeth in anger.
“…pretend to die.”
With one hand, she fiercely lifted the wet hair stuck to her face and grabbed it behind her head. She closed her eyes and then opened them again. There was a calmness in her dark eyes.
After wrung out the water from his clothes and put away his phone, Jiang Yunshu stood up and looked around.
The sweet and cheerful celebratory atmosphere that could not be expressed by the black and white surveillance footage still lingered in the room and slowly spread. A girl in brightly colored clothes walked through the mess.
His steps suddenly stopped, and his gaze fell on a piece of leopard fur. A cat corpse with its body and limbs twisted and bent fell to the ground, with twisted black and red blood trails under it.
The tables and chairs next to it were tilted, and a glass wrapped in cloth had fallen to the ground. It lay on its side among them, its head tilted back with a pair of big, lifeless eyes.
Jiang Yunshu reached out and picked up a box of brand new matches from the tray on the table and put it into his coat pocket. He walked around the cat corpse and glass fragments on the ground, and his eyes fell on a figure that was surrounded by stars not far away.
Next to the fallen cake, she was lying on the ground on her side in a bright dress, one hand tightly grasping a few strands of hair stuck in her headdress, and the other hand clenched into a fist. She gritted her teeth, stared at the front, anger and anxiety frozen on her face.
The dark red blood solidified on her neck, and a pool of blood gathered behind her neck.
——It seemed that before he could shake off the burden and fight back, he was frozen in time.
Jiang Yunshu stared at her blankly, and unconsciously opened his lips: "Jiang... Jiang..."
Turning his feet, Jiang Yunshu looked at the figures on the ground around him.
Among the vast sea of unfamiliar things, there were a few familiar ones that tugged at her nerves, causing her head to throb with pain.
Jiang Yunshu opened his mouth, but could only utter intermittent sounds in confusion: "Jiang... Jiang... Jiang..."
After a pause, Jiang Yunshu slowly closed his mouth and walked around them into the living room.
She wanted to survive, so she had to find something to protect herself.
It's very dangerous outside. In comparison, the best solution is to stay in the house and wait for someone to come.
And when that person finds the phone and realizes something is wrong, he will definitely come back here. She wants to find something useful before that.
Comparing the surveillance footage on his phone, Jiang Yunshu rushed to the kitchen at an extremely fast speed.
"The third floor..." Jiang Yunshu recalled the layout of the third floor on the surveillance camera. That was the practice room and leisure room. There should be some tools there, but she recalled the toy-like hammer before, and silently wondered if she could really use it even if she got the tools?
Thinking about it, she decided to just find a kitchen knife.
If she couldn't beat him with a kitchen knife, could she possibly beat him with other tools? She might not be able to use swords, axes, or hammers as well as a kitchen knife.
After quickly and carefully selecting a kitchen knife, Jiang Yunshu looked around, hesitated for a moment, and then grabbed a bottle of oil and put it in his pocket.
After leaving the kitchen, Jiang Yunshu took a look at the surveillance camera, compared it with the mechanism on the wall, and opened it by feeling, then walked in.
There was another place, like some long-hidden wish, and she intuitively felt that she had to go and see it no matter what.
——The sixth floor here.
