The second person to go in was Zhang Bao. He jumped up suddenly, hunched his back, and followed behind Tian Dashuo at a distance that was neither too close nor too far. It was clear that he was trying hard to adapt.
The third is the couple. They are very wary, looking at everyone as if they are the villains who have framed them. At present, the two of them are in a similar state to Zhang Bao. They probably still have injuries that have not been completely healed in the shadows.
As they brushed past each other, Wenwen's legs went weak, and Su Ming quickly grabbed her arm. Unfortunately, he was also injured and could not support his girlfriend's weight. The two swayed, and Cheng Shuang subconsciously helped them up.
Su Ming turned around and yelled, "What are you blocking the way for!"
The little girl blinked and immediately let go of his hand, taking half a step back.
The man, who was originally quite refined, glared at her resentfully and then entered the room with his girlfriend.
Liao Yuewei scoffed, deciding to treat the emetic as if it were just dog food.
Fangfang, however, let her brother go first. The little girl looked at her and whispered to Liao Yuewei, "I saw him. Did you give him the emetic?"
Liao Yuewei looked slightly surprised, but did not deny it.
She continued, "He resented your emetic, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to the bathroom to induce vomiting and break up with his girlfriend."
"They're not conjoined twins!"
Fangfang shrugged in agreement, lowering her voice again, "He suspects that when they broke up, it was Tian Dashuo who helped his girlfriend escape from her desperate situation."
Liao Yuewei opened her mouth, but had nothing to say. She just felt that she and Cheng Shuang were wronged.
She watched Fangfang leave before turning to the little girl with a mocking tone and saying, "See? It's hard to be a person, and it's even harder to be a person in the Gate of Reincarnation. So you have to learn not to treat yourself and others as human beings."
Cheng Shuang asked, puzzled, "Isn't it good to be a good person?"
"Oh no, sometimes humans are more terrifying than demons!"
The little girl frowned, touched Liao Yuewei's hand, and comforted her, "Don't be sad, it's not that scary! We will become stronger and stronger, so strong that we are fearless."
Liao Yuewei chuckled. She knew that children couldn't fully understand the coldness of people's hearts, so she didn't force her. She ruffled the child's soft, short hair and said, "Of course I'm not sad. Your sister only makes others sad!"
Cheng Shuang understood that she was being treated like a child. But she clearly saw Liao Yuewei's kindness and remembered it.
After spraying themselves with deodorant, the two stepped back into the world behind the filing cabinet.
The world is no longer filled with light; instead, it is pitch black.
Cheng Shuang's hands were suddenly empty, and she immediately opened her eyes wide, silently and alertly observing her surroundings. Afraid that she might miss something, she released a zombie monster to stand above her head, monitoring the unseen corners for her.
However, the little girl realized the reason why she was so dark the next second.
She was standing in a narrow space that felt like a wardrobe, because there was a garment hanging next to her ear. The fabric felt a little stiff, and it was probably a wool coat or something similar.
How is that possible? Even if she's short, she can't be so short that she can barely touch the hem of her coat when she stands up, right? How tall must this wardrobe be!
Cheng Shuang took a small breath and gently touched the cabinet wall in front of her, but there was no gap to open or close it. Undeterred, she turned around and felt around on the other side. Sure enough, the cabinet door was on the other side.
She first released the zombie through the crack, and through its eyes, she saw a dimly lit room.
It's very small, less than six square meters, and clean and tidy, unlike a child's room.
But this room has a small blue bed, paired with blue fabric walls, a white dresser, and a white carpet.
Now, the door is tightly closed, and there is no one inside or outside.
With the alarm temporarily lifted, Cheng Shuang then pushed open the wardrobe.
But her strength suddenly diminished, and she used almost all her strength, like a young animal breaking free of its cage, smashing open the shackles, tumbling and rolling out of the wardrobe.
Fortunately, the white carpet was fluffy, so the little girl didn't feel any pain. However, when she stood up, she realized that she had indeed become shorter.
The small nightlight in the corner cast a faint light. She glanced at herself in the dressing mirror... Was she a meter tall?
This is terrible!
Looking at her chubby face in the mirror, her clear blue eyes like the sky, and her pajamas that were hard to tell whether they were blue or black, Cheng Shuang realized with a pained expression that she had changed her appearance again.
The little girl almost doubted that she had been drinking milk for the past few years without realizing it.
The child in the mirror is five or six years old, with a head of curly black hair, a low nose bridge, and slightly deep facial features. He is cute and pretty, as pure as a little angel.
Cheng Shuang touched her face. Ah, a child's skin is so smooth and soft, it feels so good to touch.
This is a three-bedroom apartment, consisting of a master bedroom, a study, and a second bedroom. The living room is large and predominantly gold, with three-dimensional carvings on the walls and furniture painted in gold or adorned with gold patterns. It looks beautiful and grand, but in the young girl's eyes, it appears slightly ostentatious and serious.
She was in the second bedroom.
According to the strange feedback, there was no one else in the entire room except for her.
Cheng Shuang finally felt relieved and pushed open the door to go out, looking at the bay window balcony that faced the living room from the second bedroom.
With the glass doors to the balcony open, a gentle breeze caresses your face, bringing a refreshing and comfortable feeling.
She ran over with a clattering sound, and in the dark, pulled open a small gap in the heavy golden velvet curtain of the window. After slipping inside, she immediately clung to the carved railing of the open-air balcony, glanced down, and then quickly shrank back in fright.
The little girl's first reaction: This is not a girls' school!
Second reaction: Wow, that's high!
Outside the window, it was pitch black, without the bright lights of the city. Only a few faint lights could be seen in the distance, a few dozen scattered together.
There were no signs of activity on the balconies on either side, and the windows were dark, so it was unclear whether the owner was asleep or had not yet returned home.
A gust of wind blew, and the heavy curtains billowed up, creating an even stronger breeze.
Cheng Shuang stumbled, but fortunately she gripped the railing tightly, thus avoiding the danger of falling headfirst.
Her heart pounded wildly, and she swayed uncontrollably in the wind. She quickly grabbed a corner of the curtain to steady herself and slowly made her way back to the living room. Then, with a loud crash, the curtain rod and the heavy velvet curtain fell to the floor.
The little girl rolled on the spot to avoid it; otherwise, she would have either been hit by the iron pole or gotten tangled in the curtains.
She patted her chest nervously, wanting to continue exploring, but then she heard a faint noise coming from the doorway.
A gloomy, wary sigh rang out.
Cheng Shuang, who had been hesitant about whether to see who it was, immediately turned around and ran to the second bedroom, closing the door behind her. The main door outside was also opened.
Cheng Shuang, who was about to lock the door, fumbled for nothing at the door handle. Then the living room light came on, and she immediately pressed her face against the door and peeked out through the crack. Two figures in dress pants, reeking of alcohol, staggered in.
One of them slumped on the sofa with his eyes closed, resting, while the other went to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of wine, opened it, poured it into a glass, and brought it over.
Because of the low angle of view, Cheng Shuang could not see the two people's faces clearly, but she could faintly hear the sounds of them drinking and talking.
Perhaps because she was always wary, she had a vague feeling that there was something wrong with these two adults.
