It was probably around three o'clock now, and it would be dawn in an hour.
I looked up at the sky. There was not a single star in the starry sky.
It was probably cloudy. The weather forecast seemed to say that it would rain tomorrow.
Just as the concept of rain flashed through my mind, a raindrop accurately landed on my face.
Damn it, God, you can't be, right? How can you let me deal with it until dawn? It's raining now, so you're preparing to let me slip under the eaves.
Perhaps my words angered the heavens. With a whoosh, the rain came down without a reason. I didn't even have time to find a roof.
I looked around and saw a three-story inn about a hundred meters away. The signboard hanging in front of the door swayed in the wind and rain.
I touched my pocket. Fortunately, the fifty yuan Mom gave me was still there.
I took off my clothes and ran to the inn.
The inn was at a crossroad. There was a sign at the crossroad: There was a symbol that looked like a human head drawn on it.
I only took a glance and rushed into the inn. If I stayed outside for a while longer, I would be drenched.
The lights in the hotel were very dim, and only 15-degree light bulbs could emit such dim light. However, it seemed that 15-degree light bulbs had not appeared in the market for many years.
There was a small window opposite the hotel. An old woman was sitting in front of the window and watching TV.
I went to the window and glanced at the television. It was a black and white television. I didn't know what was playing on it.
A black and white television! This was a pure antique. Where did he get it from? There was definitely no such thing on Taobao.
When the old woman saw me come in, she turned her face, which was staring at the television, to me. She asked expressionlessly,"Stay in the hotel!"
I looked at the old woman's bark-like face and naturally thought of the witch called Gargamel in a cartoon called The Smurfs that I watched when I was young.
Judging from the expression on her face, she would definitely kick me out if I told her I was going to stay here for a while.
Although it was only one or two hours before dawn, it seemed like he couldn't save on the hotel fees.
I nodded." How much for a night?"”
"Ten yuan!" The old woman said as she threw a key."Give me the money!"”
I handed the fifty-yuan bill to the window.
The old woman looked at the money I handed over and glanced at me coldly."You don't have any change?"
I thought to myself, Isn't this nonsense! If I had change, why would I take a 50-yuan note with you!
The old woman put the money in front of her eyes and flipped it over and over.
She wasn't afraid of being blinded by the light.
"Wait a moment, I'll go find Ling-er." The old woman walked into the room after saying that.
But after waiting for a long time, the old woman never came out again. This old fellow couldn't be prepared to owe me 40 yuan, right?
I decided to go in and look for her. It wasn't easy for my parents to earn fifty yuan. I couldn't let her deny it.
I entered the room from the side and saw a fruit knife on the table, so I put it in my pocket.
There are usually thugs in the black market. I'm afraid that there are other people in the house. I might lose money if I go in and ask for money, so this Water Ghost Blade is for my self-defense.
I had just walked to the door of the inner room when the door opened. The old woman came out with a handful of change. She saw me standing at the door and was surprised.
"Eh? Why did you come in? Who let you in?"
"I saw that you went in for so long and didn't come out. I was afraid that something would happen to you, so"
"You're the one who's old and weak. My body is strong! Here's your change. Number six on the second floor is your room.”The old woman was very unhappy when I said that she was old and weak. She almost threw the money she found into my hand.
I came out of the room and went up the stairs to find Room 6.
The room was very old. Other than a bed, a table, and a chair, there was nothing else. There was a musty smell. No one knew how long it had been since someone had lived in it.
I closed the door and windows and fell onto the bed. A wave of sleepiness came over me.
It was almost three o'clock now, and I hadn't slept at all. I had even run for half a day. It would be strange if I wasn't tired. So, my head leaned against the bed and I fell into a half-asleep state.
The strange things that had happened recently had formed a conditioned reflex. I could hardly sleep soundly. It was not that I did not want to, but I could not.
When he was half-asleep, he would wake up immediately if anything happened around him. This was the only good thing about not being able to sleep well.
I heard footsteps coming from the corridor outside. They sounded heavy.
I woke up immediately and rubbed my face."Who the f * ck is this? He's already standing up.”
The sound of footsteps came from afar and finally stopped at the door of my room.
"Help, help, help!" There was a knock on the door.
I didn't respond. I didn't intend to respond, but the knocking on the door continued unhurriedly. It meant that if I didn't respond or open the door, it would continue to ring.
"Who is it?" I could only ask.
No one answered the door, but the knocking did not stop. The knocking continued at almost the same intervals.
He didn't respond even when I spoke. What did he mean?
I sat down in frustration and got out of bed to walk to the door.
Aiya! No, it wasn't just the sound of knocking on the door. There seemed to be the sound of knocking on the window.
I live on the second floor. Why would there be knocking on the window?
I took out the fruit knife that I had stolen and quietly walked to the window.
I'll put the door aside first and see what's going on with the window.
I went to the window and looked out.
A skinny hand reached up from below like a peeled branch and slapped the window mechanically. Because of the angle of the window, I couldn't see what was below the window.
I realized that I was much bolder now. I didn't shrink back and wait bitterly. Instead, I opened the window.
This was a decision that only a person with more than two years of experience could make.
As soon as I opened the window, a person suddenly jumped up from the bottom of the window and gave me a fright.
I instinctively stabbed the fruit knife in my hand.
"Puchi!" With a sound, it was as if it was stabbed into an unripe watermelon.
It was only then that I saw what was climbing up. It was a person, but would a person climb up without any problems if a knife was stabbed in the head?
I grabbed the knife and pulled it out before stabbing it back in. I didn't think about the consequences if I killed a person. Anyway, I just inserted it repeatedly.
I guessed that the man's head was about to turn into a beehive, but he didn't have any intention of retreating. Instead, his two branch-like arms had already climbed up the windowsill.
I turned around and picked up the chair, ready to hit him down.
There was a crash behind me. I turned around and saw that the door had been pushed open. A person walked in stiffly, his arms still stretched out.#
