"I'm sorry, sir. The nearby neighborhood has been cordoned off. You can't go out for the time being.”
In Xia Du City, Chen Xuan and many of his neighbors were stopped at the entrance of a neighborhood called Happiness District.
"Why aren't you allowed to go out for no reason?”
Chen Xuan muttered to himself in confusion. Then, he turned around and walked toward his apartment without saying anything else.
It had only been three days since he had transmigrated to this world. Under the background that did not seem too different from his previous life, there was an astonishing secret hidden.
That was, there were actually malicious ghosts in this world, and the number of malicious ghosts was increasing rapidly.
The reason why he knew all this was because his only relative, his sister Chen Ruoqing, had just become a ghost controller not long ago.
And all this news was told to him by his sister.
"Could it be that they encountered a supernatural event?”
Chen Xuan muttered to himself. As he walked, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
This was the special number that Chen Ruoqing had given her. It was the only number she could call if something happened.
"Hey, Little Qing, where are you?"
Chen Xuan answered the call quickly.
"I'm on a mission. Brother, you can eat by yourself tonight.”
The voice on the other end of the phone was a little low and even a little hoarse.
"I didn't plan to wait for you!"
Chen Xuan said," I wanted to ask if the sudden lockdown of our neighborhood has anything to do with the supernatural?”
"Happiness District?"
Chen Ruo paused for a moment. Suddenly, her expression changed and she said seriously," Yes, Brother. Go home quickly and close the doors and windows. Don't walk around outside easily."”
"Got it!"
Chen Xuan's heart skipped a beat. He could hear the seriousness in his sister's words. He immediately hung up the phone and hurried back to his apartment.
He had heard Chen Ruo mention it before. This kind of supernatural event was very strange. If he was not careful, he might be targeted by a malicious ghost. At that time, he might not even know how he died.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Xuan stood in front of the balcony on the sixth floor and looked at the brightly lit Xia Du in the distance.
However, the surroundings were strangely quiet.
Not only could he not see anyone downstairs, but even the light seemed to have dimmed.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the chandelier in the living room flickered a few times like an unstable current.
Chen Xuan frowned and subconsciously turned around.
But then, the lights seemed to return to normal.
"Strange, didn't this light bulb just be changed not long ago? Is it broken again?"
Chen Xuan considered whether he should take a ladder to take a look.
Suddenly, in the corridor outside the house, a clear sound of footsteps suddenly exploded.
Da!
Da!
Da!
The sound of the footsteps was very abrupt. It was clearly heard from afar, but it was very clear.
It was as if every step he took was right next to Chen Xuan's ears.
His expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously suppressed his voice.
Why would there be such strange footsteps at this time?
Moreover, even if there were, the footsteps would not be so clear, uniform, or even mechanical.
A strange atmosphere was quietly brewing.
At this moment, the shouts of other neighbors came from the corridor.
"It's late at night. Can't you count your footsteps? It's so noisy!"
As soon as the voice came out, the footsteps strangely disappeared.
However, not long after, a shrill scream came from the room next door.
"Ah! Save..."
This scream only lasted for a moment before it stopped abruptly.
Chen Xuan's expression changed. This voice belonged to the neighbor who had spoken just now.
"Could it be that he has already been killed?"
In an instant, a feeling of horror hit his heart. Chen Xuan stood stiffly on the spot, not daring to make a single sound.
Although he was a transmigrator, he did not have a cheat!
At this time, he did not want to be targeted by malicious ghosts.
Drip, drip, drip!
The second hand of the clock sounded like a year.
Da!
Da!
Suddenly, the familiar footsteps sounded again, causing Chen Xuan's nerves to instantly tense up.
It was getting closer and closer.
He could clearly feel the footsteps approaching his room.
It was even possible that they were only separated by a wall.
At this moment, the footsteps suddenly stopped.
Chen Xuan clenched his trembling hands and stared at the door without blinking.
Thump!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Damn it! Was it it? Or someone else?"
Chen Xuan's expression changed. He didn't expect someone to knock on the door at this time.
However, his intuition told him that he could not respond to this voice. The neighbor was targeted because he spoke.
However,
The knocking on the door did not stop. Instead, it became more and more intense.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump! Thump!
Under such great force, Chen Xuan even felt that his door was about to collapse.
He carefully came to the door, wanting to observe through the peephole.
However, when he looked out through the peephole, his heart skipped a beat.
He didn't see anyone outside the door. He only saw a pair of embroidered shoes at the bottom of his gaze.
In an instant, Chen Xuan's hair stood on end, and fear surfaced in his heart.
How did she knock on the door with only a pair of embroidered shoes?
What should I do? Escape?
But where could he escape to?
Just as he was wondering, the embroidered shoes outside the door suddenly disappeared.
"Did he leave?"
Chen Xuan heaved a sigh of relief and subconsciously retracted his gaze. However, when he inadvertently swept his gaze to the ground, he was so frightened that he almost cried out.
That was because the pair of embroidered shoes had appeared at his feet.
At this moment, the two toes of the ancient-styled embroidered shoes were pointing at him, and a feeling that made people tremble surged into their hearts.
It was over! Chen Xuan didn't need to guess to know that he was being targeted by a malicious ghost.
Just as he was in despair, a cold mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
