My Thriller Survival Game

Chapter 20 Homecoming, Mysterious Express

Liming Community is close to the western suburbs, but not far from the city center. It was built in the 1970s. After decades, other places have been demolished and rebuilt, but Liming Community is still standing strong.

The community is very dilapidated, and it takes ten minutes to walk from the bus stop. Xu Yang, walking in the rain, subconsciously quickened his pace.

When people feel fear, they will always subconsciously approach familiar places and seek shelter from familiar people, and Xu Yang is no exception.

Xu Yang is very familiar with the road from the bus stop to Liming Community. He can walk home even with his eyes closed.

After walking through a sidewalk and two small alleys, Liming Community is within easy reach.

Stopping, Xu Yang subconsciously raised his head and looked at the location of room 4044 in his home. There was a light on in the room, and a figure appeared near the window. The outline of the figure should be Yang Xueqi.

Seeing this scene, Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. The familiar place and the familiar lights felt like home.

Xu Yang, who had been extremely nervous along the way, relaxed at this moment. He stopped and walked straight towards the community.

I don't know if it's because of the rain or it's too late. The street lights in the community have been turned off, but only the room where he is in the residential building has lights on. There is a black car parked downstairs in the unit.

That's Yang Xueqi's car.

In an old community, there are no doormen, no patrolling security guards, and no elevators. Quickly walk into the corridor of the fourth unit.

The familiar corridors and mottled walls are covered with various small advertisements. The rusty stair handrails are covered with irregular dust. The fifth steel bar is broken. It broke more than half a year ago.

There is also a battery car in the corridor. It is the mount of the office worker on the second floor of 4042. It is charging at the moment.

He put away his umbrella and shook off the rainwater on it. He didn't know whether the umbrella really worked, or whether the peeping gaze was just Xu Yang's illusion. Even if he put away his umbrella at this moment, the sense of voyeurism did not come back again, which made him

Xu Yang felt relieved.

"Snapped!"

It was pitch dark in the corridor. I held my umbrella and stretched out my hand to pat it. The sensor light on the fourth floor turned on instantly, but the sensor lights on other floors did not move.

Building No. 4 has a total of six floors, but the sensor lights are only on the fourth floor in good condition, and the others are broken. During the summer vacation, Xu Yang repaired the sensor lights on all floors, but I don’t know whose naughty kid put the sensor lights on.

The lights were broken again. Only the sensor lights on the fourth floor survived. Seeing this situation, Xu Yang didn't bother to care.

Different from other communities, all unit buildings in Liming Community are marked with four. The steps on each floor of each unit building are thirteen steps, no more, no less. This is really an unlucky number.

1,2,4,6,8,9,13......

Building No. 4, fourth floor, room 4044, thirteen steps, are either related to four or thirteen, which always reminds people of some bad things.

Of course, Xu Yang is an atheist, he never believes in ghosts, and in today's society, not many people care about these numbers.

Walking on the familiar steps, Xu Yang would pause deliberately every step he took. He wanted to make sure if anyone was following him into the corridor.

However, Xu Yang's worries were somewhat unnecessary, as there was only the sound of his footsteps in the entire corridor.

The light from the fourth floor fell through the gaps in the corridor, allowing Xu Yang to see clearly the steps under his feet.

Walking from the first floor to the second floor, Xu Yang subconsciously stopped, turned his head, and looked at room 4023.

The door was closed tightly and there was no movement inside. Xu Yang squinted his eyes.

There are many residents in Liming Community. After all, the rent here is cheap, but there are not many old tenants. Most of the old tenants have moved out one after another in the past ten years or so, and the new tenants who have moved in,

Everyone is extremely busy and they are not very familiar with each other.

Fang Wan'er used to rent room 4023, but since she left, this room has always been empty.

Compared to the first three buildings, Building 4 has the fewest tenants. Counting Xu Yang, there are only seven or eight households in the entire building. During the summer vacation, two more households moved out.

Looking at the door of room 4023, Xu Yang hesitated: "Do you want to go and have a look?"

Xu Yang always feels that horror survival games are inextricably linked to reality.

But after a second thought, he decided to forget it.

Without thinking any more, Xu Yang quickened his pace and soon reached the fourth floor.

But as soon as he came to the door and took out the key to open the door, the door opened and Yang Xueqi in casual clothes stood at the door.

"Come back?" Yang Xueqi said.

"Um."

"Why so late?"

"It's raining heavily outside, so the car drives slowly." Xu Yang explained.

"There was no accident on the road, right?" Yang Xueqi asked with concern.

"Um?"

When Xu Yang heard this, his heart suddenly trembled. He looked at Yang Xueqi and narrowed his eyes.

However, before Xu Yang could ask questions, Yang Xueqi said: "Come in quickly."

As she spoke, Yang Xueqi turned sideways and let Xu Yang enter the room, and she closed the door. However, when she looked at the red umbrella in Xu Yang's hand, her eyes narrowed slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

While Xu Yang was changing his shoes, Yang Xueqi turned around and headed to the kitchen.

The layout is the same as room 4044 in the game. The room is not big, but very clean. There is not much furniture, but it is fairly complete.

Looking at the familiar room, Xu Yang always subconsciously thinks of the room in the game.

After changing into slippers, she came to the living room. As soon as she sat down on the sofa, Yang Xueqi came out of the kitchen, took out a bowl of steaming ginger soup and handed it to Xu Yang.

"Drink it quickly, be careful of catching a cold."

Looking at Yang Xueqi with a concerned look on his face, Xu Yang took the ginger soup, pursed his lips and said, "Thank you."

"Xiaoyang, why are you so polite to your sister?" Yang Xueqi sat down next to Xu Yang, looked at Xu Yang and said with a smile.

Xu Yang smiled and did not answer.

Yang Xueqi is very young and beautiful, with a prettier smile. She is one of Xu Yang’s few friends. She is very good to Xu Yang. During the three years when her second uncle disappeared, she has been responsible for taking care of Xu Yang, like a grown-up.

She is like a sister, although Xu Yang does not need anyone else's care.

Compared to her second uncle, who is carefree and inappropriate, Yang Xueqi is more like a mother. Perhaps in her eyes, Xu Yang is a child who needs care.

Xu Yang was also helpless with this feeling.

Xu Yang was very repelled by outsiders, and of course no one wanted to get close to him, who had a withdrawn personality. When Yang Xueqi first appeared in Xu Yang's life, Xu Yang was also very repulsive, because he knew that this woman had an ulterior motive for approaching him.

This made Xu Yang very unhappy.

But after three years of getting along, Xu Yang had become accustomed to her existence and gradually accepted her.

After taking a sip of ginger soup, Xu Yang asked directly: "You said on WeChat that there was something about my second uncle?"

However, Yang Xueqi did not answer this question, but asked: "Have you encountered anything strange recently?"

"Um?"

(°ー°〃)

Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Yang Xueqi, thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No."

"Really not?"

Yang Xueqi looked into Xu Yang's eyes with scrutiny. At this moment, she looked more like a policeman, while Xu Yang looked like a suspect.

Xu Yang did not look at Yang Xueqi, but turned his head, continued to drink the ginger soup, shook his head and said: "I haven't encountered anything strange."

Seeing this scene, Yang Xueqi narrowed her eyes, moved her lips slightly, and hesitated to speak, but in the end she did not continue to ask.

No one knows Xu Yang's character better than her. No matter how much he asks, he won't tell Xu Yang what he doesn't want to say. In the final analysis, Xu Yang still doesn't trust him.

Thinking of this, Yang Xueqi couldn't help but smile bitterly, then she stopped worrying, took out a photo from her pocket, handed it to Xu Yang, and said, "Look at this."

Xu Yang turned his head and glanced at the photo. After just one glance, Xu Yang narrowed his eyes.

It was a photo of a corpse. The corpse had turned into bones. Judging from the pelvis, it should be a woman, but this woman had no hands.

Xu Yang raised his head, looked at Yang Xueqi and asked: "This is..."

"Do you still remember Fang Wan'er, resident 4023 downstairs?" Yang Xueqi asked.

"Um?"

Xu Yang was stunned again, and then said: "Is this Fang Wan'er?"

Yang Xueqi nodded.

When Xu Yang heard this, he immediately narrowed his eyes and said, "Why is she dead?"

"You don't know?" Yang Xueqi asked, looking into Xu Yang's eyes.

"Me? How would I know?" Xu Yang asked.

Yang Xueqi did not speak, but stared at Xu Yang's eyes for a moment, and then said: "Didn't you send me this photo?"

"ah?!"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Yang was immediately confused.

Xu Yang looked at Yang Xueqi and then at the photo. He frowned. If Yang Xueqi hadn't said it, he wouldn't have known that the white skeleton was Fang Wan'er.

"What's going on?" Xu Yang asked.

"Three days ago, I came back from a business trip and received an express delivery."

"Express delivery? What's in it?" Xu Yang asked subconsciously.

"this picture."

Xu Yang squinted his eyes, glanced at the photo, then looked at Yang Xueqi, and asked: "You mean, I sent this express delivery?"

Yang Xueqi nodded.

Xu Yang shook his head and said: "Impossible. I have been participating in military training at school during this period and have never left at all."

"I know."

After Xu Yang explained, Yang Xueqi said: "When I received the express delivery, I asked someone to investigate. It is true that this express delivery was not sent by you, but the sender was you."

"Um?"

Hearing this, Xu Yang narrowed his eyes again and looked at Yang Xueqi with a puzzled look.

"What's the meaning?"

"The sender of this express delivery is you, and the recipient is me."

"Someone sent you a courier in my name?" Xu Yang narrowed his eyes.

"Yes."

"What on earth is going on?"

"Here's the thing..."
