Chapter 6 Ghost Walking in the Middle of the Night
Footsteps entered the room and went straight inside. ♦♦ ♦♦
Wei Miao controlled her breathing, pretended not to notice anything, and closed her eyes to sleep.
People can control their breathing when they are nervous, but they cannot control their heartbeats. Fortunately, this body seems to have experienced many storms and waves, and is particularly stable. With Wei Miao's calmness, the disguise presented at this moment is simply perfect.
The footsteps are getting louder and clearer.
This means that it is getting closer and closer to Wei Miao.
Finally, it walked to the bed.
Even to the head of the bed, judging from the direction of the sound, it is possible that it is standing in front of her!
Time seemed to stand still, and Wei Miao could only hear her own breathing. In the silence, any movement is infinitely magnified, and the pressure from the unknown makes the fantasy extremely active. Fear will be born in the emotions, growing like wild grass, and finally destroying the mind.
Wei Miao is facing a difficult choice at this moment. Should she secretly peek at this uninvited guest, or continue to sleep to the end?
There are risks in opening your eyes, and you need to be cautious when peeping. Who knows if you will be killed by the plot as soon as you open your eyes?
But risks and benefits are equal, and information is often the key to survival in supernatural events.
Wei Miao prepared himself mentally in a short time, and quietly opened a crack, wanting to see what this strange existence was.
With the faint light outside the balcony, the black curtain covering the entire room was barely lifted, and Wei Miao was able to glimpse the scene in front of the bed.
Nothing.
There was no hideous ghost as imagined, only the curtains of the balcony were closed, and the lights of the city at night made it somewhat transparent. The room was dark and there was nothing abnormal.
Wei Miao's back felt a little cold. He clearly heard footsteps stopping at the head of the bed, so how could there be nothing? !
Could it be an invisible ghost that cannot be seen with the naked eye, but how could it make the sound of walking footsteps? Maybe... is it a pair of shoes that are haunted like in some horror stories?
Wei Miao's thinking was active and divergent. At this moment, the footsteps sounded strangely again.
"Dong-dong-dong-dong-"
The slit of the eye closed quietly. In the case of losing vision, hearing is more sensitive.
Wei Miao could accurately identify the direction of the sound. It walked from the head of the bed to the foot of the bed, and its footsteps were steadily moving away from her, until finally, the sound went out of the room, getting farther and farther away, more and more ethereal, and wandering in the corridor again.
"Dong-dong-dong-"
The dull sound of stepping on the tile floor constantly stimulated people's eardrums. Every sound seemed to make people's heartbeats accelerate and their breathing tighten. The brain had long lost the sleepiness and was extremely awake because of fear.
Listening to the footsteps going away, Wei Miao opened her eyes and looked at the time, barely recognizing that it was just a few minutes after midnight.
Although she remained calm and her heartbeat and other signs were within the normal range, it was still too difficult for her to sleep peacefully in such an environment.
Ghosts themselves represent unknown dangers. Fear is not to be mentioned, but vigilance is extremely strong. After all, it was the first qualifying game, and it would be too ugly to die at the beginning.
However, the clues that she didn't even touch during the day were now in front of her. It all depended on whether she had enough courage to explore!
She got up carefully, crawled to the end of the bed, and slowly leaned out half of her body, looking over the glass wall of the shower room and looking at the door.
To her surprise, the door was closed. But she remembered that the rhythm of the footsteps went out without any break, very smooth, which meant that it did not stop at the door, that is, it did not have the opportunity to close the door.
But the door was closed! And when the door was closed, it would lock with a "click", and she did not catch this sound.
Wei Miao just glanced at it briefly, and then lay back down swiftly, with only a slight friction sound of fabric, which was almost inaudible.
The room was dimly lit, and Wei Miao's eyes flashed with a faint light, lying on her side facing the door. She was used to facing the source of danger head-on, rather than exposing her back to the unknown, gaining a self-deceiving sense of security, and not knowing when she would be stabbed.
She listened to the sound, and her thoughts would occasionally diverge, but she quickly came back to her senses, and this situation lasted until one o'clock in the middle of the night.
At one o'clock, the footsteps stopped abruptly. They had not reached the stairs or the elevator, and were at least some distance away from this place, but they just disappeared.
As abrupt as its appearance.
The footsteps were strange and unusual. What kind of ghost is this?
It was almost half past one, and the sound did not appear again. The surroundings maintained normal silence, but even the silence made people feel cold in their hearts.
Wei Miao would not go to the corridor to investigate. She slowly closed her eyes, and sleepiness came to her heart again.
In any case, people always need to sleep, which is the guarantee of the next day's energy.
Today is just the first night, and the ghosts are beginning to show their clues. This game is very strange. It seems that it does not think that daily activities such as eating and sleeping belong to idle time. It does not adopt the mode of skipping time and automatically completing these activities. Everything is carried out according to real life.
Food is delicious, and sleep can feel sleepiness and dormant body functions. It is worthy of being a virtual game that is called epoch-making in the publicity, and it has achieved an unprecedented fully immersive experience.
There was no movement all night.
Early the next morning, Wei Miao heard a knock on the door and woke up from a light sleep.
He looked at the time and it was just after seven o'clock.
Wei Miao, who usually woke up after eight o'clock, grabbed a handful of messy hair, and a flash of annoyance flashed across his face.
Are these people so self-disciplined that they knock on the door at seven o'clock without an alarm clock? Don't they know how precious sleep is?
She couldn't control her morning mood, but fortunately, it only took her a moment to calm down. She rubbed her eyes and the drowsiness completely subsided.
She stretched her muscles tentatively on her face, showing a gentle smile, then got out of bed, took out the room card from her pocket, and opened the door.
The people standing outside were Anderson, Budd, and Edith, which surprised Wei Miao.
Anderson had faint dark circles under his eyes and slightly obvious bags under his eyes, which made him look a little haggard. Edith's hair was not as delicate and smooth as when she first came, and it was a little messy. Budd... this guy didn't seem to be any different.
Wei Miao nodded politely to them: "Good morning, what can I do for you?"
"Oh, it's like this. Everyone is awake, only you are not awake, we came to see if you are..." Anderson was halfway through his words, Bud interrupted him: "Come to see if you need any help."
Anderson glanced at them awkwardly, then reacted and responded.
Wei Miao nodded and smiled: "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine. I just woke up, do you mind if I wash up first?"
Bud spread his hands: "Of course, please."
Wei Miao was a little angry after getting up, and slammed the door.
