He muttered a few words and then hummed a strange song to himself.

Why does this voice sound so familiar?

Su Xing frowned slightly, why did the voice sound like Lin Lu's.

But shouldn't he stay at home and wait for dawn to go there on his own? How did you get here?

No, that's not the point. The point is how this guy got in!

"Hmph, you are really brave. Even a mentally ill person dares to come to my place to cause trouble!"

After a slight hesitation, and finally after checking his phone to confirm that he could not contact the outside world, he reached out and pushed the door open.

The sound downstairs stopped abruptly the moment the door was opened, replaced by deathly silence.

He reached for the switch of the chandelier, but after pressing it several times, no light came on.

The light happened to be broken at this time. This coincidence was a bit too much.

Su Xing complained in his heart.

Not far from the end of the stairs was a long sofa lying sideways, and a vague figure was sitting on the sofa.

There is no light, so only a faint outline can be seen.

"Lin Lu?"

The outline of the body and the sound he heard before made Su Xing certain that the person sitting on the sofa was Lin Lu, but why he appeared here and how he got in was unknown.

Severe schizophrenia?

"Dr. Su, where do you think people go after they die?"

The voice was indeed that of Lin Lu, but it was slightly trembling.

"It's a crematorium. Otherwise, where do you think the dead will go?"

After a brief silence, Lin Lu made a sound again in the darkness.

"A small number of them will stay in the real world. They don't know their own death yet, so they relive the moment before their death over and over again. And most of them... most of them will go to a place that is similar to reality, but full of blood. The world. It’s desolate and weird, the extreme extreme of reality.”

After saying that, Lin Lu paused again, slowly raised his stiff neck, and looked at Su Xing on the stairs.

"So, Doctor Su, why are you here? Why do you come to a place like this?"

Su Xing felt a little confused. This was his own clinic. How could he act like an outsider?

"Doctor Su! This is not a world that a living person should set foot in. You must leave immediately, before dawn! Otherwise, you will never be able to go back.

I shouldn't...remember...the door...reality..."

Lin Lu's voice gradually became blurry, like a recording with damaged data, and it was intermittently difficult to hear what was being said.

"What did you say? What door?"

Turn on the flashlight on your phone and scan the surroundings while walking downstairs.

It's true that this is my own clinic, but it feels awkward no matter how you look at it.

I know, it feels inconsistent!

Su Xing, who is good at analyzing details, discovered the problem immediately.

If you carefully distinguish the details of the world in front of you, you will feel that everything around you seems to be illogical, but it strives to be close to reality. If I have to describe it, it’s like a virtual world full of bugs.

This is definitely not reality. It's a bit like Inception in the movie, or the weird world described by Lin Lu during the day.

But no matter what, why didn't you notice something so obvious at a glance?

Something is affecting my mind and sanity!

If you stay here for too long, I'm afraid you will really get lost and be completely unable to leave.

But why did I come to this place? When exactly...

Recalling it carefully in my mind, my initial guess was that the moment I opened the door, I had already stepped into this world from reality. And the voice of Lin Lu that he heard at the beginning was actually what lured him here!

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the red moonlight spilled in, spreading on the floor like a pool of blood. The phone still had no network or signal, and the time was still three o'clock, and it had not moved forward a minute.

"Dr. Su, the funeral under the moonlight is beautiful. Let's go and see it together. She is also beautiful. Why don't you want to take a look at her?"

It was still Lin Lu's voice, but it was not coming from the person in front of him.

This voice was like the one that first tempted me to open the door and go downstairs.

Lin Lu's face in front of him was as pale as gray, and he stiffly shook his head to indicate that the sound was not made by him.

After glancing around in horror, he spoke in a low voice.

"Dr. Su, the funeral is about to begin, and we will run out of time! Do you hear it? The crying is getting closer and closer, and it's our turn! We must leave this world before dawn... No, I can't leave anymore But you have to leave quickly."

While speaking, Lin Lu paused suddenly, then his eyes lost focus, and he spoke the second half of the sentence with a dull expression.

Before Su Xing could express his doubts, Lin Lu collapsed on the ground in front of him, a large amount of blood gushed out from his mouth and nose, and his body muscles twitched instinctively uncontrollably.

It was like an invisible sledgehammer was picked up and hit on him mercilessly.

I saw the broken bones in his body piercing through the flesh and clothes and sticking out straight away. The scene was shocking.

In just the blink of an eye, the man in front of him fell into a pool of blood, twisted and disfigured.

Obviously, he said something he shouldn't have said and was "punished" by Weiyi.

The collapsed chest proved that there was no hope of rescue, so Su Xing did not step forward to do any useless work, but looked around again.

Going up the stairs, where the bedroom door should have been was blocked by a red brick wall. It would be impossible to go back through there.

Not only the bedroom door, but the place where the door should have been was strangely blocked by the red brick wall. Now this place was like a sealed coffin, and all he could do was stay there and wait to die.

He retracted his gaze and looked at the forest road on the ground.

"No way, people are just... gone?"

Su Xing looked at the corpse on the ground with no panic on his face, but was filled with helplessness. After much hesitation, he clasped his hands together and whispered with one eye closed.

"Good brother, if you really die, please take the time to give me a dream, tell me your payment password and so on, and finally settle the balance. I know you writers are very rich, I don't mind if you pay more. …”

After saying this, Su Xing also sincerely said in his heart that the other party must remember to come to him in his dream.

This kind of behavior is quite explosive even in a weird world, but Su Xing, who has never experienced the feeling of fear since he was a child, would rather be visited by indescribable weirdness than lose thousands of oceans in vain.

At this moment, the flashlight on the front of the phone accidentally flickered, and then the screen of the phone went completely black.

The moment the light was lost, the surrounding darkness suddenly invaded.

The moonlight seeping in from the window not only failed to illuminate the surroundings, but intertwined with the darkness, making it appear eerie and strange.

I must leave as soon as possible.

The world returned to tranquility, and Su Xing put aside complicated thoughts and began to concentrate on thinking.

Now we know that this world is full of strange forces, which can affect people's minds and cause hallucinations and auditory hallucinations.

Therefore, everything you can see and hear now may be false.

The purpose is to sow the seeds of fear in yourself.

When a person's psychological defenses are broken down and he is in panic, he is most easily controlled, and even with a little guidance, he can be prompted to take his own life.

After making a rough guess, he woke up and stood still in the darkness, relying on his analysis of details to try to see the true face of the world.

In the dark, there are very few things that can be seen clearly, but in this world where vision can be misleading, not being able to see clearly is not a bad thing.

boom--

The sound of heavy objects hitting steel suddenly broke the silence.

A sudden sound caught Su Xing's eyes. He turned around and saw that an iron door with a chain had appeared in the corner of the wall.

The crashing sound just now came from the other side of the iron gate.

Vaguely, there was a voice coming from the other side of the iron gate.

There were muffled cries from a woman and curses from a man.

"Run? Where are you going? Leave me like that bitch?"

"I gave you all my hard work, but you asked me to let you go? I should have known that you are an ungrateful thing!"

"You have to stay by my side while you are alive. Even if you die, you are not allowed to leave even half a step without my permission!"

"..."

Just by listening to the voice, you can guess that a perverted drama of crazy criticism of men is going on inside the door.

But there is no other way to leave now. Staying where you are is not a wise choice, so after a brief hesitation, he made up his mind.

"Well, it shouldn't be a big deal to take a look, right?"

Su Xingmu used all his strength to slam into the iron door. He thought that the rusty iron door would be difficult to open, but in fact the door was not locked at all, and he just knocked it open with a little force.

There was no perverted scene in the basement as imagined. There was only a woman in a white dress who directed and acted like a mental patient. When she noticed that a living person had intruded, her expression flashed with shock, and the strange sound coming from her mouth also appeared. Stopped abruptly.

"Um...it's a bit inappropriate to interrupt you, but if you don't mind, could you ask me where the exit is?"

Although he could guess that the other party could not be a living person, but a strange creature, he still paused for a moment and tentatively spoke. At the same time, he leaned out to observe the basement that could be seen at a glance.

As a weirdo, there is no way he can withstand such provocation.

The woman in the white dress did not respond, but she twisted her body and let out a piercing scream.

Obviously, in this case, one is either angry or anxious.

I saw the woman in the white dress crawling along the wall to the top of the basement like a spider, heading towards the door quickly.

Su Xing took half a step back, ready to slam the door on the other person's face at any time.

But that thing seemed to have discovered this intention, and suddenly stopped at a certain distance, tilted its head and stared at Su Xing.

In the darkness, one person and the other looked at each other two or three meters apart.

Su Xing felt that his eyesight seemed to have gotten better. In such a dark environment, he could actually see the other person's face clearly.

It was a cheek full of wounds, and it was difficult to see more emotions on the broken face, so it was impossible to judge what the other person was thinking through micro-expressions.

Although Su Xing doesn't know whether psychology is applicable to Weirdness.

Seeing that the other party had not made any next move, Su Xing became a little anxious.

"Well...then what?"

Su Xing really just wants to know what the other party is going to do. No matter what he wants to do, he just needs to let him go as soon as possible.

But at this moment, this sentence coming out suddenly was simply a provocation.

The weird rattling head hanging on the top was turning. If a living person was not afraid of her, no matter how many methods he could use, he would not be able to do anything about him unless the other party took the initiative to kill him.

During the stalemate, Su Xing did not forget to observe the interior of the basement in more detail.

His intuition told him that there must be a "door" to return to reality.

After some investigation, I saw a familiar wooden door in a corner filled with clutter.

The style of the door is just like the door of my bedroom! That must be the exit from this world.

When Su Xing was thinking about how to sneak past, the twisted and ferocious strangeness turned into a blurry shadow first, melting into the darkness and disappearing without him noticing.

"That's it? It's not as scary as Lin Lu described it."

I couldn't help but complain, but then I realized I couldn't stay for long, so I quickly trotted towards the exit, tried my best to move the debris away, and pushed the door open without hesitation to leave.



"call--"

He leaned against the bedroom door and took a deep breath after checking that there was no strange red light outside the window.

This was not because I was scared, but because the air in that world was as thick as water, and I felt like I couldn't breathe in or out. It was really suffocating.

Buzz buzz——

The phone in my pocket buzzed, and the previously black screen appeared again.

He took it out casually, and it was his assistant's phone number.

And checking the notifications, there were already dozens of missed calls and text messages.

Chat software is even better.

Slide to switch on.

"What happened?"

The other person on the phone was stunned for a moment, then spoke quickly.

"Boss, do you remember Lin Lu who came to the clinic yesterday? He... committed suicide by jumping off the building in his own house."

Jump off a building and commit suicide.

Really dead.

Although I wasn't surprised, my heart still skipped a beat when I heard the news that Lin Lu was dead.

"Are you listening to what I'm saying? Boss? Boss! Officer Zhou contacted you several times, but couldn't get in touch, so he found me here."

"Okay, I understand. I'll message him back."

When Su Xing came back to his senses, he accidentally caught a glimpse of something on the bed, which looked familiar.

Turn on the bedroom light.

It was a big red festive invitation.

The last time I saw this thing, it was in Lin Lu's hand. It was like a reminder to him, making him panic all day long.

Now that he's dead, it's in his hands?

He walked forward slowly and opened the invitation.

As expected, the content of the invitation was a funeral invitation. It was still signed by a woman named Chen Xin, but the invited name was herself - Su Xing.

"Boss? Boss! Are you okay?"

Zhang Shanshan's voice on the other end of the phone was still ringing, but with a slight electric sound, it was not very clear.

Did she let her come back on purpose?

Su Xing couldn't help but think.
