East Borough.
It was a 20-story apartment building.
This building was near a bustling street. Transportation was convenient and it belonged to the bustling area.
Yu Maode was the manager of a nearby company.
He was already in his forties and was currently living separately from his wife. His son was already in university and he did not need to worry about him.
Yu Maode was now living alone in apartment 1711 on the 17th floor of this residential area.
"Annoying. It's a holiday tomorrow and you're still working so late.”
Yu Maode propped his hands on his waist and raised his head to straighten his waist. His face was full of fatigue.
Pa da---
After he walked out of the elevator for a while, he heard the sound of stepping on water.
"Huh?"
Yu Maode subconsciously looked down.
His gaze followed his feet and looked into the distance…
Water was flowing on the floor of the corridor, slowly spreading over.
"Where did the water come from? Whose faucet isn't turned off properly?" He looked into the distance.
The corridor in front was full of water, and there was no place to hurry.
Yu Maode was puzzled.
He walked forward, wanting to go home. He also planned to see whose house had a problem and then call the property management to ask them to contact the owner.
Patter patter patter--
As she walked down the stairs, she stepped on the water and made a crisp sound.
Yu Maode was about to reach the end of the corridor. He found that there was no water coming out of the door of the house.
Could it be that the water tank on the roof was leaking?
Suddenly, Yu Maode staggered and couldn't stand steadily. Something seemed to have grabbed his ankle and tripped him.
"What?"
Yu Maode lowered his head to look, wanting to see what it was.
This glance.
His hair stood on end, and his scalp went numb!
It was not something pulling his ankle, but a hand with rotten skin. It stretched out from the shallow water, and it was extremely strange. That hand looked like a woman's hand, and her nails were smeared with scarlet nail polish.
It grabbed his ankle and a pungent smell of corpses wafted out.
Yu Maode subconsciously lifted his leg, wanting to break free from the rotten woman's grip.
However…
The hand pulled Yu Maode's body into the water.
This scene was extremely strange!
It was clearly just a shallow surface of water, but it was like a deep pool.
"Ah!"
Yu Maode shouted in fear. He clawed at the floor of the corridor with both hands, trying to find the relay point.
Suddenly, the fear on his face deepened!
"Save, save-"
Yu Maode clearly felt another touch on his ankle. Another hand grabbed his ankle!!
He hadn't finished his sentence.
His entire body was pulled into the water, and there were deep claw marks on the ground.
Yu Maode was gone. His fingers scratched the ground and blood flowed out. He was gone. There was a faint blood stain on the water that slowly melted.
The entire corridor was silent.
Sizzle--
The lights in the corridor flickered a few times due to the water spreading.
Then, it became quiet again.
Only the water was still spreading. It extended towards the emergency stairs and flowed down the stairs.
……
In the outside world.
Under the bright moonlight, the moonlight shone on the roof of the apartment building.
The water pipes on the rooftop seeped with water and spread to the entire floor.
On one of the floors.
The lights flickered and suddenly lost their light, as if the wires had short-circuited.
There was water flowing on the floor of the corridor, spreading throughout the entire building.
The shallow water flowed.
In a flash, a shadow flashed across the surface of the water. It seemed to be a corpse. The water was another world, and it drifted across the bottom of the water.
……
After Zhang Ya finished eating.
She put the bowl into the dishwashing machine and started to read the company documents.
After looking at it for a while.
After Zhang Ya completed her mission, she clicked on the latest anime series.
"Eh, it's already eleven o'clock." After watching a few episodes, Zhang Ya realized that it was a little late.
She decided to take a shower, then lay on the bed and watch a few more episodes before going to sleep.
Zhang Ya walked into the bathroom to take off her clothes and prepare to take a shower.
At this moment, she did not notice that the water from the bathroom pipe was slowly spreading towards her.
"Hmm? Leaking?"
When Zhang Ya took off her last pair of pants, she saw that there was water on the bathroom floor.
She was stunned. This was the dry area of the bathroom, so there shouldn't be any water.
Suddenly.
A reflection appeared on the shallow water surface on the floor.
This reflection was not her.
It was someone else!
It was a woman. Her face was rotten and bones could be seen. Her skin was white and swollen without any color. Her eyes were deathly white. She looked like a person who had been dead for a long time.
He stared at Zhang Ya with a numb and dead gaze.
She reached her hand out of the water and grabbed Zhang Ya's ankle.
Zhang Ya's face instantly turned pale.
"Ah!"
Screams rang out in the bathroom.
……
On the other side.
In Zhang Ya's apartment, which was separated by a few households.
That was Su Sheng's house.
"Huff huff…"
His breathing was rhythmic as he slept.
Su Sheng went to bed at ten o'clock.
Suddenly, Su Sheng's sleeping eyes opened.
He sat up and looked outside the bedroom.
After a while.
His body transformed into the fifth form of the slippery ghost!
Ka--
A hand was holding the Grim Reaper's scythe by the bed.
Su Sheng stood up.
He held the Grim Reaper's Scythe and walked out of the door.
His instinctive sense of danger told him that something was wrong!!
Although he was sleeping, his instincts kept him alert. He noticed that something was wrong around him.
He walked out of the house.
The lights in the apartment corridor disappeared, leaving only the green exit signs on both sides lit.
His vision was very dim.
"Hmm?"
Su Sheng saw some water on both sides of the corridor. He could clearly hear the faint sound of running water.
At the same time, he felt a power that he had never seen before fill the entire building!
Demons?
Su Sheng had an idea.
Clack clack...
Su Sheng's tall body held the Anubis Scythe in his hand as he calmly walked down the stairs.
In the next moment.
He looked at the water on both sides of the corridor.
There was something wrong with the water. The residents on both sides of the corridor were quiet. It was so quiet that one could tell that the people inside had disappeared.
He wiped the water with his slender index finger.
Su Sheng looked at the water droplets on his fingertips. There was nothing wrong with them.
Then, he opened his mouth.
He swallowed the water in one gulp.
Gulp!
Su Sheng smacked his lips.
With the devouring system, he was not afraid of hurting his stomach.
However, after eating, Su Sheng was a little surprised. Was there anything wrong with the water?
He instinctively felt that there was something wrong with the water.
He didn't dwell on this question. He planned to go to the source of the water flow.
After a while.
Just as Su Sheng was walking, a rotting male dead hand reached out from the water by the corridor and grabbed his ankle.
His hand missed!
Su Sheng happened to take a step forward and was not caught.
Su Sheng stopped.
He turned back to look at the place where he had walked past the water.
There was only one person there, and nothing else. It was as if nothing had happened.
Because Su Sheng was walking in front, he could not see any movement in the water behind him.
However, not seeing it didn't mean that Su Sheng didn't feel it.
His gaze fell on the water…
