nightmare novelist

Su Qian sat on the sofa calmly. He thought about preventing Mr. Deng from turning on the video player, and he thought about snatching the remote control to turn off the TV, but let's not care whether Su Qian's body speed can do it in the shortest time. He subconsciously felt that there was no need to do these things.

The strange intuition told Su Qian that only by letting this "story" continue can they really solve the anomaly.

In fact, this so-called intuition is more like the experience of a horror novel creator.It's as if Su Qian saw Mr. Deng turn on the video tape player now, and felt that if this was really a horror novel, then the "midnight ghost" mentioned in the book of nightmares would appear in front of them in the next second on the TV screen, and then give them the curse of mortal death in seven days.

It's a pity that looking at the antique video tape player and the 65-inch digital TV screen that is displaying images, these two products of different eras can't give people a sense of horror at all, but there is a very absurd contradiction feel.

It's as if everything is fake.

Su Qian was surprised that she felt this way, because in the world of Wei Jing, the word "false" never appeared in his mind.On the contrary, when Su Qian was in the mirror world, he felt that the nightmare world gave him a sense of reality even more than the real world, as if he was originally an aborigine of the nightmare world, but just went outside the thick fog by accident .

But when you are in Hujing Jiayuan, this sense of reality gradually disappears.

The kind aunt who knew all the answers had no sense of reality, the video tape player that should not exist in this era lacks sense of reality, and Mr. Deng, who was speaking strange words in front of her, also had no sense of reality, everything was left to Su Qian. of weirdness.

The sound of music came from the TV. Su Qian glanced at the TV screen, but found that there was no weird picture playing there. It was just a girl in casual clothes walking in a busy commercial street. And the outskirts of Huahai is more like a travel documentary than a movie.

The beginning of the film seems to be a short film introducing the entire storyline, with no lines and no storyline, only light-hearted music.The camera of the movie just follows the beautiful girl who appeared at the beginning. She walks through the bustling and lively streets one after another, tastes various delicacies, and enjoys afternoon tea and exquisite desserts leisurely in the restaurant of the petty bourgeoisie.

The community where the girl lives is also quiet and lush with green plants. Residents exercising and playing chess in the streets and courtyards are talking and laughing happily. The music that changes with the scene is still relaxing, and some sound effects of birds chirping and cicadas are added.

While feeding stray cats by the bushes, the girl also met a handsome young man.According to the progress of the short film, the two people seem to take this as an opportunity to slowly come together.After playing the entire short film like a music video, the story really begins with the white curtains in the girl's bedroom filled with sunlight...

Strange film, which doesn't seem to have any curse-related elements, but is also the favorite film of Mr. Tang's missing wife.

"Everyone should be tired, so just sit here and have a good rest for a while." Mr. Deng picked up the teacups on the tea tray and made tea for Su Qian and the others one by one.

Indeed, if this is not the world of nightmares, Jiang Li and Mr. Qi might really be able to calm down and listen to music and drink tea.But now Jiang Li and Mr. Qi's understanding of this nightmare world is not as good as Su Qian's. Even Mr. Qi only showed a surprised expression when he saw the video tape player.

"I didn't expect to see such old antiques in this era." Mr. Qi naturally experienced the era of video tapes.

"As long as you want to have it, you can have it." Mr. Deng also picked up his teacup and sat back on the single sofa, "So how is the outside world?"

I don't know how many times Mr. Deng asked this question.

"Outside, does it mean the outside of Hujing Jiayuan?" Su Qian also picked up the teacup, but at most she just smelled the tea, and after all, she still didn't let the tea into the nightmare world, "If Mr. Deng wants to know the situation outside , shouldn’t you go out and have a look yourself?”

Su Qian was also very surprised, why is this Mr. Deng so curious about the situation outside?The other party asked this question frequently, giving Su Qian the feeling that this Mr. Deng was locked in the Hujing Garden, and he couldn't leave this place at all.

As for the outside...

All Su Qian could think of was the calm pumice lake before he entered the nightmare world. Except for the heavy fog that haunted E0002-mother, there was no special situation worth mentioning.

"It's still the same as usual." Su Qian gave an ambiguous answer. Mr. Qi and the others beside him were also a little at a loss, but the little girl Pei Lan, who was very nervous before, gradually relaxed under the influence of the atmosphere in the living room.

This is also very normal, after all, Su Qian hasn't had a chance to tell them about "Midnight Ghost".

"Really?" Mr. Deng seemed to have thought about it, then shook his head again, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with me."

"Dong dong!"

That Mr. Deng was about to say something more when there was a knock on the door of the house.

"It seems that today is a rare and lively place." After putting away the teacup, Mr. Deng got up from the sofa and walked towards the door.Mr. Deng's appearance and temperament are indeed very good. He is a fair and handsome guy with long legs just like the male protagonist in the video tape played at this moment. Although his temperament may be gloomy due to the loss of his wife, he still has a demeanor in every move.

But the moment Mr. Deng just unlocked the door...

"Oh!"

The metal anti-theft door was smashed open by someone outside in an instant, and Mr. Deng behind the door was unable to dodge because of the sudden incident, and directly slammed into the wall behind the door.Amidst the exclamations of the other trainees, Su Qian saw clearly that the figure who bumped in from the outside was the young man with the golden chain who had separated from them at the gate of Hujing Jiayuan!

Before Mr. Deng came back to his senses, the young man with a golden chain who seemed to have a somewhat impulsive temper raised his leg and kicked the metal anti-theft door again, forcing Mr. Deng into the gap between the door and the wall. .

Mr. Deng, who had been hit again and again, was so painful that his face was pale now, and he didn't even seem to have the strength to shout.In other words, before that Mr. Deng called, the gold chain rushed in and directly grabbed his shirt collar, pulled Mr. Deng out from behind the door, and then violently hit the wall.

This time, Jin Lianzi, who behaved shockingly, yelled at Mr. Deng directly with an impatient expression: "Your surname is Deng? Tell me, are you playing tricks on the mess in this neighborhood?!"

Su Qian's doubts, which were still carefully seeking proof, were called out by Jin Lianzi just like that.

"Young man, speak up if you have something to say." Mr. Qi hadn't separated the nightmare world from the real world, but when he saw that Mr. Deng was bumped so that the corner of his mouth was bleeding, he immediately became nervous.

"What's there to say? Even the uncle who sorts out the garbage in this community knows that there is something wrong with this beastly guy." Jin Lianzi didn't even look at the old man. He just grabbed Mr. Deng's shoulder with one hand and pinched him with the other. "I found out that people in this community started to disappear half a month ago. This man surnamed Deng started claiming that his wife was missing about a week ago, but no one in the community has seen him and him for at least half a month." His wife appeared in the community together."

"Isn't the answer obvious? This guy killed his wife half a month ago, and later created other disappearance cases in the community. He also fabricated a false supernatural event except for a ghost murder, because he hid himself. The crime of killing my own wife!" Jin Lianzi, as if he had transformed into a great detective, directly defined the curse of "Midnight Ghost" as a false story fabricated by Mr. Deng to cover up the fact of the murder.

Even Su Qian, who is a creator of horror novels, has to admit that if it weren't for the archives of "Midnight Ghost" appearing in the book of nightmares, Jin Lianzi's guess is indeed possible.

But since it is recorded in the Book of Nightmares, the Midnight Evil Spirit and the curse must exist.Rather than saying that Mr. Deng is a serial murderer, it is better to say that he is more like the E0158 that must be found in this nightmare world mission.

"Hehe." At this moment, Mr. Deng still had the strength to sneer, "Let's not talk about why I have to do such a troublesome thing. Tingting is my wife, why should I kill her for no reason?"

This was the first time Su Qian knew the name of Mrs. Deng.

Jin Lianzi narrowed his eyes, cursed again in a low voice, and then grabbed Mr. Deng's neck and said, "Don't think that I don't know anything because I came from outside. I asked a lot of people. You and your wife actually have a bad relationship, right? So many people in the community saw you arguing in broad daylight, and most of the time it was your wife who scolded you with all kinds of ugly words, but you still had to How can a big man be so useless? I think either you have to rely on your wife's little face for food, clothing, housing, and transportation, or your wife has caught something...Anyway, it may change. become your motive for killing!"

"I heard that serial murderers usually behave strangely. In fact, your wife has already found out that something is wrong with you?" The gold chain let go of Mr. Deng's hand, and thumped the wall next to his ear. go down.

"You don't understand at all." Mr. Deng showed a strange calmness at the moment, and even reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, "I will never kill Tingting, the meaning of my existence is to be with her forever."

"But..." Mr. Deng's voice gradually became deep and painful, "She finally left me, this place, and the whole world."

"Which one am I abandoned?"
