National idol Karasawa Makoto is currently living in a room on the third floor of a Nara apartment.
When she originally chose to buy a room on the third floor, she actually considered that in case of an earthquake or other emergency, she could easily escape through the stairs.
If the situation is so urgent that it is too late to take the elevator, you can climb out from the fence outside the window, and you will not die if you fall accidentally.
Unfortunately, when she was in real danger at this moment, Tang Ze found that although the floor was very low, it did not help her escape...
Karasawa Makoto also considered buying rooms on the first and second floors, but the agent said they were too low and there was no sense of security. Moreover, as a top star, living on the ground floor of an apartment is too low-profile, and personal privacy cannot be effectively guaranteed.
This actually makes sense.
The design of Nara Apartments is quite special - multiple residents share a corridor on the first and second floors, which means that there are several residents in one unit and they are adjacent to each other. It's okay for ordinary people, but for celebrities, privacy is really difficult to guarantee.
On the third to eighth floors, there are two families per unit, sharing an elevator.
On the eighth floor there is a unit for each household, with exclusive use of an elevator.
Three floors up, there are many units on the same floor. Although the elevators for residents in different units are not interconnected, they can be connected through side steps.
It can better protect the privacy of each household, and it is also very convenient to manage the property. You will not have to take the elevator on the first floor every time you go to a different unit, which will also occupy the elevator resources. At the same time, it is also very convenient to escape in an emergency.
It is obvious that the higher you go, the richer the residents are.
Of course Karasawa Makoto has the ability to buy a high-rise apartment, but she simply doesn't want to. The third floor is just right, neither too high nor too low. It's very safe when you think about it.
Moreover, this house is just one of several houses that Karasawa Makoto has in Lidu City.
She rarely lives here. Only when the work schedule is too heavy for a certain period of time and she is exhausted physically and mentally, will she come here alone to escape and relax.
Except for the brokers with the closest connections, almost no one knew that Makoto Karasawa had a house here.
Every time she comes here, she is well armed and has never been recognized by others.
In fact, Karasawa Makoto has not lived here for a while, which shows that she has been in good condition in all aspects during this period.
Recently, because she and Ichiro Chida filmed the popular "Lito Love Story", she was urged to get married by CP fans everywhere. However, Chida Ichiro actually took the opportunity to confess to her in private yesterday, which made Karasawa Makoto felt that the other party was too naive and did not distinguish between acting and reality at all.
In addition, when Ichiro Chida was interviewed everywhere, he always seemed to show that he and Karasawa Makoto were in an ambiguous state, which also troubled her a little.
He even doubted the other party's character, and he definitely had the idea of coercing Karasawa Makoto with public expectations.
To be honest, although Karasawa Makoto usually seems to be quite easy-going to movie fans and ordinary people, when it comes to relationships, she is really demanding and has extremely high vision. Even she herself doubts whether she will be able to find someone who truly makes her feel loved in her lifetime. man.
Her agent simply said it bluntly: "If you continue to be picky like this, you will be single for the rest of your life. It just so happens that if you continue like this, you can always be my cash cow. With the state of maintenance you are in, even if you are fifty I should be able to look like I'm in my twenties or thirties even if I'm many years old, and still be able to continue acting in teen idol movies. Please don't make too much money."
Regarding these words, Karasawa Makoto called the other party a crow's mouth, but in his heart he felt that it was very likely to become a reality.
As for Chida Ichiro and his ilk, except for being very handsome and making a lot of money in filming, men with no connotation and almost no advantages, Karasawa Makoto is really not interested at all. Her level is much higher than the other person's, her income is several times that of the other person's, and she doesn't care about money and status at all.
However, if he rashly draws a clear line with Ichiro Chida, he is likely to be harassed online by the other party's fans, and it will also affect the sales of "Lito Love Story" in various channels, which is still very popular.
Her agent suggested that she not pay too much attention to it for the time being and wait until the popularity of "Lidu Love Story" subsides before dealing with it.
Karasawa agreed.
But my mood was still quite affected, so I temporarily decided to come to the Nara Apartment for some quiet time tonight. Unexpectedly... something terrible happened.
When she was about to go to bed tonight, she was applying a facial mask in front of the dressing table.
A picture suddenly appeared in front of him - it seemed to be filmed by a first-person camera. A man opened the door and faced the camera with an extremely frightened expression on his face.
Immediately afterwards, the camera zoomed in, and the man's terrifying expression was magnified to the extreme.
The screen goes black.
The camera zooms out and the upper half of the man's head disappears.
There was a lot of blood on the lens, and the picture was bright red, as if it had been put on a red filter.
The camera zoomed in again, the screen went black, and zoomed out again. The rest of the man's head was gone, leaving only the part below the neck, covered in blood, standing stiffly.
Then, the scene just now is repeated, and the man seems to be eaten one by one by a big mouth, until in the end, only two bloody feet are left.
At first, Karasawa Makoto thought that such a scene was just an illusion caused by being too tired recently.
For an actress who has been filming all year round and has also filmed horror and thriller movies, it is not very strange to have such hallucinations.
What is a little strange is that the layout of the room where the man who was eaten just now is a bit like the standard structure on the first floor of a Nara apartment. Karasawa had seen that type of apartment when she bought a house, and she had a good memory.
But this is just the beginning.
When half of the man's head was eaten, Tang Ze heard screams from the corridor, and then similar screams came from downstairs and next door.
The soundproofing effect of this apartment is quite good. You can imagine how frightened the screaming people were.
After a while, the scene just now appeared again.
This time, the person facing the camera was a woman wearing pajamas and applying a facial mask like Tang Ze. This gave Tang Ze a very strong sense of immersion, and his heart beat faster.
The woman initially sat in front of the mirror, dazed, and dropped the mask on the floor. There was a frightened expression on her face in the mirror, as if she had just seen something incredible.
After a while, she clutched her chest and gasped for air, as if she had just had a nightmare. This is also very similar to Tang Ze's state at this time. It's just that Karasawa's facial mask hasn't fallen off yet... it's about to come off.
The next moment, the woman seemed to see something extremely terrifying in the mirror. Her expression was distorted to the extreme, she covered her face, opened her mouth wide, and let out a shrill scream——
Tang Ze really heard the woman's scream, it was very clear, coming from the house directly below Tang Ze.
After the screams, the camera zooms in, the picture goes black, the camera zooms out, and the upper half of the woman's head is eaten.
Repeat the previous process, as if the person holding the camera is an ogre, opening his mouth wide, eating the woman one by one, until only a pair of feet are left on the ground bleeding.
Frightened screams rang out one after another in the corridor and in the next room.
Karasawa quickly realized something - could this be a live broadcast that many residents in the Nara apartment could watch simultaneously? Or is it a prank?
She immediately took out her mobile phone and opened the Nara apartment owner communication group. The news in it had already exploded.
The first message was sent five minutes ago, when half of the first man's head had just been swallowed——
"Everyone, did you hear any screaming just now?"
"It was so scary. My wife and I saw the horrific scene at the same time! The scream you heard might have been my wife's."
"Excuse me, what kind of scene did you and your wife see? I also just..."
"A man was eaten half of his head by some monster, and then his whole body was eaten, and finally only two feet were left!"
"!!!!!!"
Another resident typed a long series of exclamation points, and then sent a message——
“I, my wife, our nanny, and our two children all saw this scene!
What we saw was a damn first-person perspective, and the atmosphere was so scary that even thrillers in the cinema were not as scary as this. By the way, the room that the man was in was very similar to the structure on the first floor of our apartment, and it was decorated like a model house. I'm so impressed. "
"I also saw it. When I was taking a shower, let me emphasize this - my perspective was like that of a man-eating monster. I was carrying a camera and rushed at the man's head, and half of the man's head disappeared. Is this a prank? ? This kind of scene will leave a lifelong shadow."
"Me too, we are a family of four...the children are so frightened that they cry and can't be coaxed no matter how hard they are coaxed."
"Is it a prank? The TV people in our country like to do this kind of extremely perverted and disgusting prank shows. The more perverted the show, the higher the ratings. One time, they actually put an ordinary person on the scene of a gang fight. I was almost scared to death. We have complained hundreds of times, but the TV station has shown no intention of correcting the situation, and instead it has only intensified."
"That makes sense. Could it be that this time it's also a prank show? Isn't the concept of the metaverse something like that currently being hotly debated? After the high-tech gadgets are created, pranks are really scarier."
"It shouldn't be a prank show, because it's too real. If a prank show could be so realistic, the ratings would be astronomical. And this kind of show would communicate with us residents or the actors in advance, right?"
The next posts were filled with messages from residents in the apartment reporting that they and their families had seen the same horrific scenes.
This property owner group was originally established by the property management company to facilitate communication with residents. Unexpectedly... today it turned into a horror story live broadcast exchange group.
During this period, a user interrupted:
“I have already called the police and told the operator in great detail about the weird things that happened here.
The police said that professionals will be arranged to handle the matter soon. At the same time, the operator advised us not to act rashly for the time being, otherwise we may trigger something terrible called a rule. Once triggered, the consequences will be horrific.
The police sounded very calm and didn't feel strange at all. They seemed to deal with similar incidents frequently. I think we should wait for the results of the police investigation. "
"What are you waiting for! Can those policemen who are busy concealing the truth all day tell you the truth? I have familiar friends who have heard inside information and said that weird things are happening every day in Lidu, no, in the entire country. , but the police have been doing everything possible to conceal the truth! I thought he was talking nonsense before, but it seems that is the case."
"This is too scary. I am packing my things now and preparing to take my whole family to leave this ghost place immediately."
"This is the serious way!"
Afterwards, it seemed that a live broadcast of a second woman being eaten took place.
All kinds of frightening messages flooded the owner's communication group, and many people called the police.
Someone said: "I'm on the second floor, and the woman who was eaten just now seems to live next door to me. It's so scary!"
Immediately afterwards, a user on the first floor seemed to have just opened the communication group and sent a message: "The first man who was eaten lives in the third room next to me. The two of us often say hello in the corridor... This is What kind of scary plot? Is it like in a science fiction movie, where some scary monster has sneaked into our building? "
"Everyone, please act quickly. My wife and I, as well as my son and daughter, have already got on the elevator and will leave this apartment immediately. It's best for you to hurry up."
Yes, leave the apartment.
Seeing this, this idea came to Tangze's mind.
After the initial panic period, she gradually calmed down.
After thinking for a moment, she quickly threw away the mask, put on some casual clothes and a baseball cap, and planned to walk out without a face. Just kidding, if she bothered to dress up at this time, she would be in trouble.
Just as he was about to go out, the terrifying live broadcast started again——
It was still a first-person perspective. The location seemed to be outside an elevator in a Nara apartment. Karasawa Makoto had only seen elevator doors like this in this apartment.
The camera is facing the elevator door. The seat seems to be on the first floor. The display shows that the elevator is going down from the 31st floor - 29, 28, 27...
Karasawa Makoto suddenly thought of a terrifying possibility. She immediately opened the chat group and sent a message:
"The guy who took the elevator just now! Are you still in the elevator now? Which floor are you on? Please tell me the number..."
The man replied:
"26, 25, 24..."
It's completely synchronized with the floor in the live broadcast footage.
The owners immediately went crazy.
Someone directly sent a voice message——
"Fool! That monster is waiting for you at the elevator entrance on the first floor!"
"What do you mean?" The person in the elevator seemed to be unable to see the live broadcast.
"The picture we see now is that the monster is staring at the elevator door on the first floor!"
"ah!!??"
More people are helping with ideas:
"Hurry up and press the elevator!"
"You can click on any floor, but don't go down to the first floor!"
The man quickly sent a voice message, his voice was extremely panic——
"It's over! The elevator buttons seem to be broken and I can't press any of them."
Then, the sound of Bangbangbang knocking on the elevator door came from the voice.
Karasawa Makoto looked at the camera in front of him. The elevator had sunk to 22, 21, 20...
She sent another message: "Which unit (ユニット) do you live in?"
"Unit 3, 33rd floor..."
It happens to be the same unit number as Karasawa Makoto.
She quickly ran out the door and sent a voice message to the group as she ran:
"Quick, everyone in the third unit below the 20th floor should go to the corridor and press the elevator!"
What she meant was very clear. As long as someone could open the elevator from outside, there would still be hope for the family.
"Hey, this resident's voice... sounds very nice and familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere." Someone replied to the message in the group.
Karasawa Makoto ignored all this and hurried to the elevator door and pressed the elevator button.
It was pitch black outside and it was really scary. It felt like the monster would rush out of the darkness at any time.
After pressing the button, Karasawa Makoto immediately returned home, opened a crack in the door and looked at the elevator entrance.
Before entering, she saw the neighbor across the door also opened the door, and a little light showed through the crack of the door. The neighbor seemed to take a look at the situation in the corridor, and then——
With a "bang" sound, the door was closed.
Soon, news came from the group that the man in the elevator was safe:
"Thank you to the neighbor on the 16th floor! Our family has got out of the elevator safely. We are now taking refuge in this neighbor's home. Thank you very much!"
After seeing this news, the lens that was staring at the elevator door disappeared.
Karasawa Makoto also breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but feel lucky for that family.
At this time, someone in the group sent another voice message:
"I am a resident on the first floor. There are five of us here, all living on the first and second floors. They all ran away from home after seeing the horrific scene. Our current location is the front entrance of the apartment, and everything outside is There is a heavy black fog, I can’t see anything, it’s so weird, I don’t know whether I should go back or..."
After hearing this, the live broadcast footage appeared again——
In the dark fog, a man turned his back to the camera and lowered his head to talk into the microphone of his mobile phone.
News from the group is coming——
"Hey, look behind you!"
"Run quickly!"
When the man saw the news, he subconsciously looked back, and the expression on his face was instantly distorted to the extreme.
The camera zooms in...
After a while, there were only two feet left on the ground, and he ran back happily towards the front door of the apartment with bloody steps.
"!!!"
"what's the situation?!"
"Run quickly, those neighbors who are still at the front door of the apartment, run back quickly!"
The reminders in the resident group are completely useless.
The terrifying live broadcast scene just now was repeated four times in just one minute.
Karasawa Makoto suddenly thought: If there is black mist outside, people who run out will be eaten. That means that in the face of such a terrifying thing, even jumping off the building is useless, right?
After the last pair of feet ran back to the apartment.
The residents group was silent for a while, and finally someone sent this message——
"Who will be next?"
The group suddenly became dead silent.
After a while, someone replied:
"The monster seems to be walking from bottom to top...Looking at the situation just now, there is one on the first floor and one on the second floor..."
Does this mean it’s the third floor’s turn next?
Karasawa Makoto couldn't help but feel nervous, she lived on the third floor.
But think about it carefully, even if the monster really comes to the third floor later, there are many residents on the third floor. Although there are two households in one unit, there are many parallel units. It can't be such a coincidence that he happened to find one. Got her?
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door...
——————
I was too sleepy today, so I set an alarm clock and fell asleep at 8 o'clock. I planned to get up at 10 o'clock to update. Unexpectedly, I slept until 2 o'clock in the morning. I quickly got up to update... Sorry, sorry.
