This time, he didn’t encounter any other bizarre things.

He immediately reached into his pocket, quickly touched the ice-cold keys, grabbed them, and yanked them out.
Looking down, Zheng Bo’s whole body shook violently with shock and fear as he realized that what he was holding in his hand were two dark blue severed fingers.
Right at that moment, a hoarse voice softly emerged from the slightly ajar wardrobe beside him, “Try it, it’s edible!”
No sooner had the voice faded than the cracked-open wardrobe door slammed shut with a heavy thud.
Startled, Zheng Bo screamed loudly and, as if holding a hot potato, quickly threw the severed fingers onto the floor.
Desperately, he took a few steps forward, moving away from the wardrobe.
At this moment, Zheng Bo was dripping with sweat, his clothes already soaked through, gasping heavily, feeling as if he could barely catch his breath, and his limbs were trembling so violently that he had no strength left to run.
After escaping the proximity of the wardrobe, he instinctively looked towards the bathroom and was suddenly shocked to realize he couldn’t feel his heartbeat anymore.
He saw the wooden chair that had been propping the bathroom door closed was now knocked over on the floor, and the bathroom door was wide open; it had been opened from the inside.
There was no movement, and in the entire bedroom, besides his own ragged breathing, he couldn’t hear any other sound.
“The strangeness has already come out!”
Zheng Bo immediately stood still with his back against the wall and turned off the flashlight.
His hair stood on end, and a chill ran down his spine. He wanted to control his breathing to avoid being detected by the other, but he couldn’t do it because the more nervous he was, the heavier his panting became.
Zheng Bo’s gaze swept continuously over the spaces on either side of the bed, towards the wardrobe, and past the clothes rack in front of the bedroom door.
If the strangeness had come out of the bathroom, he fixed his attention on the places where it was most likely to hide.
Staying close to the wall, he moved to the bathroom door. Even without turning on the flashlight, he could see clearly now that indeed, the door lock had been violently twisted open. The back of the chair that had been propping the doorknob was broken at one corner, which was why the bathroom door had been able to be opened so smoothly.
All around him was eerily silent, the stillness so chilling it was as if the strangeness that had just walked out of the bathroom was silently staring at him from some dark corner.
At this moment, Zheng Bo did the opposite of what was expected; without much thought, he stepped into the open bathroom, quickly shut the door behind him, and immediately locked it.
He stood panting heavily at the bathroom door.
The thumping of his heart felt like a loud bass drum echoing in his ears.
“That was close!” he whispered to himself, patting his chest.
This action had been a sudden inspiration, and even Zheng Bo had to admire his own wit. Staying out in the bedroom would have been even more dangerous.
Since the outside had become dangerous, the bathroom that he had so desperately avoided before had now become a safe haven.
This was reverse thinking.
However, Zheng Bo hadn’t noticed that when he closed the bathroom door, the figure of a woman who had been crouching behind it was revealed.
At this moment, with his side facing obliquely away from the door, Zheng Bo felt his trick had temporarily isolated him from the outside strangeness, and the fear in his heart was slowly subsiding.
The key was to hold the door and prevent the strangeness outside from breaking through.
He stepped backward unconsciously and then felt he stepped on something.
Soon, a hair-raising sensation crawled all over his body, a bone-chilling cold emanating from behind him, as though his body had been plunged into an icy spring.
Zheng Bo’s eyes widened, frozen, as the disheveled woman behind him slowly rose to her feet, her hair veiling her face mere inches from Zheng Bo’s neck.
Due to fear, Zheng Bo was completely stiffened; his eyes tried to look behind him, but his body at this moment simply wouldn’t obey.
The woman behind him slowly raised her emaciated hands, pushing away the black hair hanging over her face, revealing a pair of eyes with only whites showing. Her nose lacked a tip, leaving only two blood-clogged nostrils, and her lips were torn, revealing part of her upper gum.
Zheng Bo felt like he was already a dead man, now devoid of breathing, with his heartbeat gone too, as the cold behind him intensified; already imagining the horrifying scene behind him.
A warm stream suddenly flowed between his legs, soaking through his long underwear and dampening his cotton slippers.
An icy touch came from his shoulder, a numbing cold sensation.
The woman extended her hand, resting it on his shoulder, and leaned in close to Zheng Bo’s ear.
“Uncle, I found you.”
“Ahh!”
An unstoppable scream burst forth as Zheng Bo’s blood pressure skyrocketed, his brain buzzed, and in an instant, it all went blank, and he collapsed, unconscious.
Time passed.
The morning sun shone through the closed curtains, warming up the room gradually.
When Zheng Bo woke up, he found himself lying face-down on the bed with the blanket crushed underneath him.
His head felt unbearably heavy, and his whole body was weak and cold.
With great difficulty, he got up from the bed, looked down, and saw his pants were still wet, and the blanket was soaked through as well. Sleeping like this, his body surely had caught a cold.
