Looking at the faint candlelight, Hu Yawei had the urge to cry in silence. Yes, he never thought that his parents did not believe him at all, nor did they believe anything he said.
But the words came back. In fact, after thinking about it, it was understandable that my parents didn't believe it. After all, the theory of the lysate god only existed in legends. For thousands of years, no one had come up with any real evidence of the lysate. , although everyone usually respects the God of Chi, deep down in their hearts many people still treat it with disbelief.
Therefore, the result can be imagined. When their son said that he might be killed by a locust tonight, his parents would naturally think that Hu Yawei was talking nonsense and was completely deceiving them.
To take a step back, don't say that his parents don't believe it. Even if he tells anyone else these words, the result will most likely be the same. After all, this is too unbelievable.
(You don’t believe it, right? You all don’t believe it, right? If I die, you will regret it later!)
Hu Yawei became more and more angry. Although he didn't know why he had the above thoughts in his mind, but after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly remembered...it seemed...
It seems that every missing person will be forgotten by others after disappearing.
In other words, even if Hu Yawei disappears mysteriously, his parents, family, classmates, friends, and even everyone who knows him will all forget him!
What is the scariest thing in the world?
The answer is undoubtedly death, so is there anything more terrifying than death?
Yes, that is forgetting, being forgotten by everyone, completely erasing all traces of your existence!
Thinking of this, Hu Yawei couldn't help but shudder. Just now, he remembered this incident. Is there anything more terrifying in this world than being forgotten by everyone?
(No, I can't die, I...I don't want to be forgotten...)
While thinking wildly, he first stared at the candles on the table for a while, and then turned to look out the window again. He was still sitting at the computer desk.
Yes, Hu Yawei had no intention of sleeping from beginning to end. He stayed up late and drank coffee as advised by Chen Wen to try not to fall asleep. At least in his personal opinion, as long as he survived this night, the danger would be past.
There is no moon tonight. At this moment, looking out the window at the dark night, Hu Yawei's face turns blue and white. He is scared, really scared. After all, Chen Wen had already explained clearly to all the students when school was over in the afternoon, whose If a number appears on the desk, then whoever it is will disappear that night and will be forgotten by the world.
Time continues to pass, slowly passes...
And Hu Yawei just sat alone in the bedroom and passed the time in a frightened state. With the help of weak candlelight, he looked left and right from time to time to be careful.
until……
Until the time reaches midnight exactly.
"Ah, phew..."
Hu Yawei couldn't help but yawned. Yes, he was sleepy. He had never stayed up overnight and finally became sleepy as time went by. However, even if sleepiness hit him and he couldn't hold it back, he still couldn't. Dare to sleep.
Therefore, Hu Yawei continued to hold on forcefully.
"Gudu, Gudu."
He reached out and rubbed his eyes, then picked up the half cup of cold coffee on the table and took a few sips. Although the coffee with sugar was still very bitter, in order to prevent himself from falling asleep, the bitterness was nothing. ?
"call!"
Putting the tea cup back on the table and exhaling, Hu Yawei immediately noticed that the candle on the table began to gradually dim. This was natural. After all, after being used for so long, the entire candle was about to burn out.
Seeing this, Hu Yawei was suddenly shocked. After all, the entire residential building had already lost power, and he himself relied on candles for lighting. He didn't want to stay in the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers. Seeing that the candles were about to go out, he quickly grabbed the first candle on the table. The two candles were lit, and sure enough, the second candle had just been lit, and the first candle was extinguished after the flame flickered twice. On the surface, it seems that Hu Yawei has successfully continued the candlelight burning, but...
Looking at the second candle on the table and watching the candle burning slowly, Hu Yawei's heart sank a little bit. The reason? The reason is simple, because he only has two candles in total, one has been burned out just now, and the one in front of him is the last one, and it is also the last candle in the house!
(A candle can burn for about two hours. It’s only midnight now, and it will burn out again around two in the morning at most. By then, won’t I have to stay in the dark? As for the fastest dawn, It’s five o’clock in the morning!)
The above is what Hu Yawei is most worried about and even afraid of when lighting the second candle. Unfortunately, the reality is like this. He has no choice. It would be great if he could have a mobile phone. Once the candle goes out, he can still use the mobile phone to provide lighting, but unfortunately The thing is he didn't.
………
Late at night, there is silence and darkness, as if the whole world has died, which is unsettling and makes all those who stay up late dare not touch it easily.
Hooray, hooray.
At some point, a cool breeze blew outside the window, carrying fallen leaves across the sky, along with the two o'clock in the morning displayed on the wall clock.
Staring at the candle on the table, witnessing the candlelight getting dimmer and dimming, he was already yawning. Hu Yawei estimated that the candle would be completely extinguished after burning for four or five minutes at most, and he would be completely in darkness by then. Thinking of this, he calmed down for more than two hours. His body started to tremble involuntarily again!
(No! You must not be able to see nothing! Ah, that’s right! Before the candle goes out, why don’t I go to the next bedroom and grab one of my parents’ mobile phones?)
Hu Yawei actually came up with a good idea at a critical moment, yes! Although he doesn’t have a mobile phone himself, his parents do!
Can’t a mobile phone replace candle lighting?
Thinking of this, and the candlelight getting dimmer, Hu Yawei stood up from his seat without hesitation, and then walked toward the door with the candle in hand.
I don’t know whether Hu Yawei was unlucky or the candle had indeed reached its limit. Just when he reached the door of the bedroom, and just as he stretched out his right hand to try to open the door and then went to the living room, the candle went out, and his ears disappeared completely with the candlelight. into darkness.
I never thought the candle would burn out at this time.
Feeling the darkness in his field of vision and listening to the dead silence around him, Hu Yawei shivered subconsciously. In panic, he instantly lost his calmness. Fortunately, he had arrived at the door and could just push the door open and walk out. Even in the dark, he could still easily enter his parents' room next door. He did what he thought of, grabbed the door handle, and then tried to pull the door open with all his strength.
Can……
Um?
what happened?
At this moment, or just when Hu Yawei was trying to pull the door open with his arms, he suddenly discovered that... no matter how hard he pushed or pulled, the bedroom door would not move at all!
Not only that, if at the beginning when the door could not be opened, Hu Yawei subconsciously thought that the door bolt was stuck, then, after some groping, a strange thing happened that made Hu Yawei both incomprehensible and completely panicked...
By groping with the palm of his hand, he found that the bolt was open, which meant... the door was not locked.
But I can’t pull it away no matter what! ! !
………
Cold sweat instantly spread all over his forehead, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat.
In addition, recalling what Chen Wen said before about killing people at night, Hu Yawei was extremely panicked at this moment! ! !
(I want to go out, I want to go out!)
Click, click.
"Oooh, ooh, ahhh!"
Following a series of muffled groans and a series of noises, due to too much fear, Hu Yawei was currently standing in front of the door while gritting his teeth and pulling the door open with all his strength! However, what made him despair was that the room remained motionless!
In the end, because the door could not be opened for a long time, and the dark environment was too oppressive, Hu Yawei gradually couldn't bear it anymore. Driven by fear, the boy could no longer hide it and couldn't bear it anymore. He immediately lay in front of the door and shouted:
"Dad! Mom! Open the door! I'm trapped in the bedroom and can't get out!!!"
bump! bump! bump!
It was obvious that although Hu Yawei was scared, he had not been frightened to the point of losing his mind completely. At least when he found that he could not open the door, he thought of his parents and called for help, and then he immediately shouted loudly and smashed the door. He came to the door, hoping that his parents next door would come to save him after hearing his cry for help.
However……
What Hu Yawei cannot understand is...
After shouting loudly, his voice was obviously very loud and accompanied by bursts of harsh slamming on the door. Unexpectedly, most of the time passed, but there was no movement from the next door, as if he had been completely isolated in a closed room. My parents are all deaf again.
"No, it's impossible! How is this possible!?"
In panic, Hu Yawei was currently facing the door and mumbling to himself. Since he was always facing the door, he didn't notice a thing. In other words, just as he was banging on the door and calling for help frantically, someone behind him This phenomenon also happens quietly in the darkness...
At the window, with the help of darkness and the faint sound of wind, a pair of human hands, a pair of human arms, silently stretched out from the window into the house and into the bedroom! ! !
The arms just passed through the window and stretched straight out. Although the speed was slow, the strange thing was... Although the two arms were the first to reach into the room, no other ones could be seen from the beginning to the end. They were not expected to follow closely. There was no head, no body that followed as expected, no other, nothing, just a pair of arms, a pair of arms that continued to extend, a pair of arms that were astonishingly long!
The two arms now extend forward as much as three meters in the house, and they are still extending forward, continuing to extend in the darkness. The target is the front, and the front is not other people. Surprisingly, at this moment, he is still at the door and still facing Hu Yawei who is facing the door!
bump! bump! bump!
"Dad! Mom! Open the door! Come and open the door quickly! I can't get out!"
As mentioned above, because he could not see everything in the darkness and was in a hurry to leave, Hu Yawei was still beating the door and shouting, without noticing the hands behind him.
until……
Until the two arms extend to the boy's back, until the arms are close to the target.
Then……
brush!
Accompanied by a series of sounds that broke through the air, both hands moved. They moved instantly. The arms suddenly accelerated, and then grabbed Hu Yawei's shoulders from behind! ! !
It's not over yet...
Because the arm movement was too fast, Hu Yawei subconsciously turned his head to observe before noticing the abnormality in his shoulder. He didn't even wait for him to shout. The next second, the sound of breaking through the air was heard again. As the arm suddenly retracted, Hu Yawei disappeared. .
Yes, he was dragged out of the window by those strange hands before he even had time to react!
"ah!!!"
The next moment, there was a scream outside the window. It was Hu Yawei's shrill scream. Unfortunately, the scream was meaningless. The sound only lasted for a moment and then disappeared into the night outside the window, becoming silent ever since.
Two seconds.
From grabbing Hu Yawei to pulling him out of the window and disappearing, the whole process only took two seconds!
What's even weirder is...
Snapped.
For some reason, not long after Hu Yawei was pulled out of the window and disappeared, with a soft popping sound, the light in the bedroom that had been extinguished for a long time due to the power outage turned on again. It suddenly lit up, just like the sudden power outage at the beginning. Another inexplicable recovery.
However, unfortunately, even if the power was restored and the light returned, Hu Yawei could no longer be seen in the bedroom.
