[He Prison] Darling, welcome back

"The fourth floor?" 304 thought for a while, "I haven't seen it officially, but the people living on it should be doctors, right?"

Yin Zongyou: "Doctor?!"

304: "I guess, when I went out a few times, I saw a man in a white coat go out, he walked very fast, I didn't see it when I went out, it should be the fourth floor." 304 added , "After all, there are only two of us in the examination house here."

Yin Zongyou was thoughtful, and 304 asked curiously, "Brother, do you know that person?"

"No, I don't know you." Yin Zongyou shook his head, "Go back to sleep, good night."

He was about to close the door when 304 suddenly said, "That, brother."

Yin Zongyou looked over.

304 pointed to his right hand. On his right wrist was a bracelet with teeth hanging on it. This was put on by Yin Zongyou after he entered the examination institute. When he was at home, because his mother didn't like it, he kept pretending On the body.

"The tooth bracelet," he raised his hand and shook it, and the bell rang suddenly, "what's the matter? Is it a bit noisy?"

"No, no, no," 304 waved his hand, "That's the first time I've seen this style, it's very novel. May I ask where you bought it?"

Yin Zongyou smiled: "I didn't buy it, it was mine...someone gave it to me."

304 suddenly realized, so he didn't say anything, and went back to the room after saying good night.

Yin Zongyou sat at the desk, turned on the computer, and the bracelet swayed with his movements while typing. After talking with 304, he suddenly had an inspiration.

And a line of words slowly emerged in the computer document——

Eden Examination Institute · Part [-]

Sure enough, someone lived on the fourth floor.

The door is not open to everyone like before, Yin Zongyou twisted it, but it didn't open.

I don't know who lives here. He stayed here for several days in a row, and he didn't see anyone coming in or out. Maybe the other party would always choose to show up when he was not around.

I didn't get anything today either, Yin Zongyou sighed, he went downstairs to buy a few bottles of beer, and happened to see 304.

304 was arguing with a girl, the girl accused him of being worthless, 304 clenched his hand hanging by his side tightly, suppressing his huge anger, Yin Zongyou watched for a while, and walked over as if he had just come down during the truce between the two , ignoring the girl, and said to 304: "Just got off work?"

304 was slightly surprised, Yin Zongyou didn't wait for him to answer, and continued: "Would you like to have a drink?"

304 glanced at the girl, and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry bro, I still have something to do."

Only now did Yin Zongyou glance at the girl lightly, and nodded: "Well, see you later."

He walked away quickly, and he could still hear the voice of the girl asking 304 who it was.

He suddenly realized that this scene seemed familiar. His every move of 304, his indifference to the girl, the way he said "would you like a drink?" People overlapped.

He looked down at the tooth bracelet on his right wrist.

When I raised my eyes, a tall and thin man in black came out of a beer shop across the road, wearing long sleeves even in the hot summer, and happened to meet his eyes.

--Honey……

Yin Zongyou dreamed many times. In his dream, it was a cramped examination house, a coffin-like room exuding rotten blood.

Someone whispered in his ear, like a lover's whisper: "My dear..."

The murmur was still lingering in his ears when he woke up, Yin Zongyou put his hand on his forehead, the dust floating in the light was ups and downs, he remembered the man he saw at the door of the store that day, and disappeared without a trace after a car passed by , but Yin Zongyou is sure that it is not his hallucination.

That man is still here.

After confirming this point, it seems that the ordinary life has a magnificent taste.

Yin Zongyou woke up with a stomach ache from hunger. Last night he wrote until the wee hours of the morning, and slept all day during the day. The life of a novelist is not easy, and it is normal to have a disordered work and rest.

On the way to the kitchen, Yin Zongyou met 304 who came back angrily. The aunt followed behind 304 and shouted: "Hey! What are you doing! The garbage that was finally cleaned up was spilled!"

304 didn't even look at Yin Zongyou, bumped shoulders with Yin Zongyou and went back to his room. Yin Zongyou comforted his aunt, first went to the kitchen to find something to eat, and when he returned to the room, he heard a bang from the next door.

Yin Zongyou hesitated for a moment, and knocked on the door.

304 opened the door, looking mad with anger, behind him, the phone hit the ground and the screen shattered.

Yin Zongyou laughed: "Very angry."

Seeing Yin Zongyou in 304, the intense ups and downs of his chest calmed down slightly: "Brother Zongyou."

"Would you like to go to the rooftop for a drink?"

304 followed Yin Zongyou, and the two went to the rooftop. As night fell, the city was brightly lit and bustling from the rooftop, and the examination hall was like an isolated world.

Cold beer can calm people down, and alcohol can make people talk. 304 squeezed the can, full of boredom: "Brother, I think someone is following me."

"Oh?" Yin Zongyou was very interested.

304: "Actually, I have felt this way since I lived here, but my girlfriend and colleagues say that I am too sensitive, but brother, what I said is true!"

Yin Zongyou looked at 304,304, 304's young and immature face overlapped with him three years ago, the familiar plot made Yin Zongyou couldn't help laughing, [-] met: "Brother, don't you believe me?!"

"No," Yin Zongyou picked up the beer to hide his uncontrollable smile, "I believe in you."

304 pursed his lips, very moved: "Thank you brother..."

"and then?"

304 showed fear: "About a week ago, on the day my girlfriend also came to the examination institute, I received a text message from a stranger asking me if I really wanted to kill him. Since then, I have such text messages every day! I replied and didn’t respond, so I always said things that I wanted to kill.” He gritted his teeth, his face twitching, “Today, today, when my boss made things difficult for me, the damn text message came again! I, I couldn’t bear it. Stop, beat my boss."

Yin Zongyou looked at him: "How do you feel?"

304 looked down at his hands: "I, I'm very scared."

He didn't notice a trace of disappointment flashed in Yin Zongyou's eyes.

304 continued: "I want to call the police, that stalker, I want to—"

"I know who he is."

304 raised his head to look at Yin Zongyou in surprise, and the light in the distance lightly fell on Yin Zongyou's face.

Yin Zongyou said: "Do you need me to take you to find him?"

Today's fourth floor is unlocked.

Seeing him open the door naturally, 304 couldn't believe it: "Here?"

Yin Zongyou turned sideways, motioned him to advance, and said without changing his expression, "Yes, I actually saw him one time, and he was following you."

304 had already walked in, and couldn't see clearly in the dark. He turned around in astonishment when he heard the words, and Yin Zongyou just closed the door.

In the dark, he couldn't see Yin Zongyou's expression clearly, he only heard Yin Zongyou say: "I only remembered it after you said it today. At that time, I thought you just happened to appear in the same place."

304 narrowed his eyes and looked at the road ahead: "Normal people would think so, thank you brother."

As a result, the fourth floor is the same as before.

Yin Zongyou looked around, the messy environment, the accumulation of debris, unknown stains on the walls and floors, the air was not circulating, and the strange smell was mixed together. 304 covered his nose, accidentally kicked something, and made a noise, 304 was taken aback in the silent space.

Yin Zongyou comforted him: "It's okay."

304 patted his chest: "Scared to death."

Yin Zongyou signaled him to continue walking: "You live here, you should have heard about the murder case three years ago."

"Well, I've heard of it." 304 replied, "It seems that the murderer hasn't been caught yet, right?"

"Then why do you still live here?"

"No money, brother," 304 sighed, "There have been cases here, and the rent is very low."

Yin Zongyou stopped in his tracks: "Aren't you afraid of meeting that murderer?"

304 looked around at the next room, there was no one in it, so he replied casually: "It can't be so unlucky." He also smiled as he spoke, and turned to look at Yin Zongyou.

Yin Zongyou also smiled: "Yes."

304's smile froze: "What?"

In the quiet darkness, there was a sudden bang sound, 304 subconsciously turned around, a man appeared in the empty corridor at some point, and was throwing a tennis ball, the tennis ball bouncing on the ground was caught in the man's hand precisely , the man raised his eyes, a smile appeared on his face.

Yin Zongyou also looked at the man, but he replied to 304: "Because, I am the murderer."

304 looked at Yin Zongyou in horror, and behind him, the man rushed towards him quickly, raised his ax and chopped down heavily.

304 was tied to a chair and couldn't move. He was covered in injuries, pain, and bleeding.

In front of him, Yin Zongyou and the man playing with the ax stared at each other face to face.

"I didn't expect you to come back, my dear." The man in black said with a smile, his voice was strangely gentle. He brushed his hair and looked around. In the corner of this room, there was a fresh corpse , he sighed: "Let me do such a boring thing."

After finishing speaking, he leaned forward and leaned in front of Yin Zongyou, the two of them were very close, their breaths intertwined, the warm and damp breath blended together, the man looked into his deep eyes with fascination: "Honey, you really are my best s work."

Yin Zongyou snorted softly, turned his hand over, and a knife appeared in his palm, which directly stabbed 304 into his heart before he could react.

The man said "Wow" and raised his eyebrows.

Yin Zongyou let go of the handle of the knife and looked down at his hands. Blood was splattered on his hands, even on his tooth bracelet. He took a step back in disgust and took out a tissue to wipe his hands.

"Is that the only goal you have?"

The man smiled: "These people are too bad, they can't compare to you at all." He walked up to Yin Zongyou, leaned very close, reached out to lift Yin Zongyou's chin, and gently wiped the corner of his lips, "Yes, my dear!" Yes, I think I will live happily ever after."

Yin Zongyou looked straight into his smiling eyes.

The smile this time was the same as the smile three years ago when the man was lying on the ground with his neck clutched and let him cut him.

The next moment, the man gently picked up his right hand and put it to his lips.

Yin Zongyou felt the hot and humid breath——

Behind them, 304's blood slowly flowed under their feet.
