Ning also noticed it.

　　He stretched out his hand and touched it.

　　In the darkness, Ning felt a book.

　　He picked it up, the dust on it still bearing the fingerprints of despair.

　　He flipped it open.

　　By the dim moonlight from the window, the two saw the contents recorded in the book—

　　…

　　[2037.6.1, Cloudy]

　　[…Grandfather called, Grandma is dying, telling Mom to come back home…]

　　[But for some unknown reason, Mom, who always cared about Grandma, refused very firmly.]

　　…

　　[2037.6.9, Cloudy]

　　[Mom didn’t go to work.]

　　[She looked very scared.]

　　[What was Mom scared of?]

　　…

　　[2037.6.12, Cloudy]

　　[These days, I’ve seen Mom crying secretly, asking her why she was crying, Mom didn’t speak, just hugged me.]

　　[She hugged me tightly, I felt like I couldn’t breathe.]

　　…

　　[2037.6.21, Rain]

　　[Grandma passed away, Grandpa called Mom, after Mom hung up the phone, her face was pale.]

　　[She suddenly went out, and didn’t come back until late at night, gave me a blood-red jade stone, told me to hang it by the window, no matter what happens, don’t take it down.]

　　…

　　[2037.6.22, Heavy Rain]

　　[Mom packed her bags, left home with Dad, leaving me and Grandma Wang , the housekeeper who has been taking care of this house for many years.]

　　[Before leaving, they told me and Wang , if we see them come home, don’t open the door.]

　　…

　　[2037.7.12, Heavy Rain]

　　[Mom came back.]

　　[I remembered what Mom and Dad told me, but I still opened the door.]

　　[I… I missed them so much.]

　　…

　　[2037.8.1, Heavy Rain]

　　[No….]

　　[It… It’s not Mom!]

　　…

　　[2037.8.15, Heavy Rain]

　　[I’m not a good child, I didn’t listen to Mom and Dad, I let that scary thing in…]

　　[It’s outside now…]

　　[I’m thirsty and hungry, but I dare not go out…]

　　[Will… I die?]

　　[What should I do?]

　　…

　　The content of the diary ends here.

　　The contents are shocking.

　　The two looked at the contents of the diary, speechless for a long time.

　　“It turns out… the old woman on the second floor wasn’t the villa owner’s mother, but… the villa’s housekeeper.”

　　Liu’s throat moved.

　　“Then, that monster…”

　　Ning closed the notebook and said to Liu behind him:

This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

　　“At the entrance of the villa, in the shoe cabinet, there are neatly arranged new women’s shoes, I was thinking, a woman who loves shoes so much, if she really wants to go on a trip, she should at least bring a few pairs, right?”

　　Liu was stunned.

　　They all passed by that shoe cabinet several times, but no one noticed it.

　　This guy Ning’s observation skills… are too scary, right?

　　“Besides, don’t you want to know what the words that old lady on the second floor kept repeating are?”

　　Upon hearing this, Liu regained his senses a little and looked at Ning.

　　“Yes, what are they?”

　　Under the pale moonlight, Ning and Liu looked at each other, and slowly uttered the truth that made Liu’s blood run cold:

　　“The old lady on the second floor wasn’t saying the meat is not cooked.”

　　“She was trying to tell us… the person didn’t leave!”

　　Liu’s breathing quickened, his eyes widened:

　　“Bro, you mean, the woman in red dress we saw first… didn’t leave?!”

　　Ning nodded slowly.

　　“Yes.”

　　“It didn’t leave at all.”

　　“It probably went to a nearby secluded place… and ate that girl.”

　　Da!

　　Liu’s legs went weak, he couldn’t stand firm, and almost fell.

　　“Damn…”

　　He was numb.

　　His whole body was numb.

　　Ning stood by the window, stretched out his hand, and touched the blood jade hanging by the window.

　　No matter what it is, what it’s made of… it doesn’t matter.

　　What matters is…

　　This blood jade can block the terrifying woman, whose true identity is unknown, inside the villa!

　　Suddenly, he thought of something and said to Liu:

　　“Big Beard, hurry!”

　　“We’ll split up, you go to the kitchen on the first floor and pack food, prioritize cooked food that can fill the stomach!”

　　Liu was stunned for a moment.

　　“Then… what about you, bro?”

　　Ning replied:

　　“I’ll go to the second floor and move the old lady up!”

　　Liu immediately understood what Ning was going to do.

　　“Won’t we bump into that… thing?”

　　Ning’s eyes were sharp, his tone was firm and resolute.

　　“We have to give it a shot!”

　　“There are not many of us left, and we can only enter the third floor at night when it is foraging!”

　　“After tonight, if we want to bring the old lady and food in here again, it probably won’t be so easy!”

　　Upon hearing this, Liu gritted his teeth.

　　“Okay!”

　　There’s no turning back now.

　　By now, he had complete trust in Ning.

　　If it wasn’t for him, he would have probably died on the first night.

　　Now, they had to take a gamble!

　　The two retreated from the room door, and after confirming that the ghost thing hadn’t returned, they immediately went downstairs.

　　Liu went straight to the kitchen on the first floor, without turning on the lights, he took the bags in the kitchen and started packing food!

　　Although it was pitch black here, Liu remembered Ning’s instructions and didn’t turn on the lights, but luckily, Liu had been working in the kitchen, he had a rough idea of where each ingredient was.

　　However, Liu’s hands were shaking badly.

　　In the darkness, it seemed like countless pairs of eyes were watching him.

　　In those dark corners, behind the doors, it seemed like a terrifying phantom could appear at any time and eat him!

　　“Quick… quick…”

　　He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

　　Large beads of sweat fell from his forehead.

　　Soon, Liu packed three bags full of food.

　　He dragged the three bags of food and quickly ran upstairs, seeing Ning also carrying the old lady towards the stairs.

　　The old lady was stout and weighed about 150 to 160 pounds.

　　If it weren’t for Ning’s extraordinary physique, he really couldn’t carry her!

　　“Go up first!”

　　Ning saw Liu stop in the hallway and directly instructed.

　　Liu nodded and ran towards the third floor with the food.

　　Ning also went to the third floor, but the floor on the third floor was sticky and slippery, he couldn’t go too fast, otherwise he would fall.

　　The old lady was weak, if she really fell, who knows what would happen!

　　“Almost… almost there…”

　　Reaching the third floor, Ning strode towards the study at the end, Liu was already standing inside the door, with half of his body exposed, looking out.

　　He was looking at Ning, full of vigilance.

　　Suddenly, he seemed to see something, his eyes filled with immense fear!

　　Liu waved at Ning, exclaimed in terror:

　　“Hurry! Bro!”

　　“It, it’s catching up!!”

　　Ning, carrying the old lady, froze when he heard this!

　　Sizzle——

　　Sizzle——

　　Sizzle——

　　The horrifying sound of cutlery rubbing against each other rang out behind them again, Ning gritted his teeth and ran towards the door without regard for the possibility of falling!

　　At this point, he couldn’t afford to hesitate anymore!

　　Ning knew that if he lingered any longer, he would surely die!

　　The icy killing intent spread over with the pale moonlight, enveloping Ning’s whole body, he dared not look back, nor could he look back!

　　Faster…

　　Faster!!

　　Ning roared in his heart, gritting his teeth, running desperately forward!

　　But even though he had given it his all, he could still hear the terrifying sound of cutlery rubbing against each other behind him getting closer…

　　No!

　　He was carrying a person, he couldn’t outrun the ghost thing behind him!

　　As they were only five steps away from the door, a cold and pale hand suddenly reached out from behind and grabbed Ning’s neck!

　　“Where are… you going?”

　　A woman’s voice, full of resentment and coldness, echoed in his ears.

　　Ning’s whole body went cold, his strength was drained away visibly.

　　He was… too slow.

　　Just as Ning was waiting for death to come, a figure suddenly rushed out from behind the door of the study, pressing down on the pale arm!

　　“Ahhhhh!!!”

　　The woman’s shrill scream rang out, accompanied by a puff of white smoke, she let go of Ning, and Ning was also grabbed by another warm hand, dragged into the study!

　　As soon as they entered the study, Liu scrambled to the window, rehanging the blood jade!

　　Only after doing this, did Liu collapse on the ground with a thud, his legs shaking like sieves…

　　“Ah!!!”

　　The woman in red outside screamed wildly, filled with rage, she twisted her body, came to the door of the study, her eyes filled with resentment as she looked at the two!

　　Only at this moment did the two finally see clearly the appearance of the woman in red, under the moonlight…

　　What a horrifying face was it?

　　Her enormous mouth stretched to her ears, her mouth was full of densely packed sharp teeth, and they could vaguely see hair and shredded flesh inside…

　　The area around her eyes was full of cracks, as if rotting.

　　Her limbs were twice as long as a normal person’s, her whole body was like a spider curled up on the wall!

　　That blood-mud covered sharp cutlery was clutched tightly in one of her hands!

　　“Damn… what the hell is this?!”

　　Liu felt like his breath was about to stop, he couldn’t help but curse!

　　The woman in red outside was restless, constantly pacing back and forth, as if she wanted to enter the room, but seemed to be wary of something, in the end she could only give up, roared at the two in the study, turned and left…
