Nightmare Attack

"Seeing that it was useless to persuade Gouwa's wife, I went to Gouwa, but Gouwa still had that straight look in his eyes, as if he had lost his soul. No matter how I called, he didn't respond.

"They walked further and further away, and the fog became thicker and thicker. I was worried and begged him not to leave anymore and to take my wife and children home as soon as possible."

"Only when he heard the word "go home" did Gouwa have a little reaction. His lips opened and closed. I leaned very close to hear what he said clearly. He said he was going to the theater."

"That's right, just listening to the show!"

"He also said that after listening to the show, he can go home."

"I don't understand. It's so late at night, when everyone is asleep, where will he...their family go to listen to the show?"

"At this time, the weirdo also noticed me. He stretched out his hand and grabbed my arm." At this point, the old woman's face suddenly changed and her tone became urgent. "His hand was very hot, like...like it was burning red. It was like a branding iron. I tried to struggle, but I couldn't break free. Finally... until I heard a sound!

"It's...the sound of gongs!" The old woman raised her head and insisted, "Yes, it must be the sound of gongs. It's the sound of gongs that shout out to people before the troupe starts."

"After the gong sounded, the weirdo let go."

“It was then that I realized that I had encountered something unclean. I didn’t dare to stay any longer and immediately turned around and ran towards home.

"But I still thought about Gouwa and his family. After running far away, I couldn't help but turn my head and take a look."

"At this glance, I saw... I saw part of the thick fog dissipate, and about 50 meters away from me, actually... a stage actually appeared!"

"The stage seems to be a temporary one. There are many weird flags on it and it is also wrapped in white cloth."

"Through the white cloth, you can see the shadowy figures on the stage. There are figures shaking, accompanied by a burst of Yiyi's singing. Gouwa's family is sitting in front of the stage."

"Not only their family, but also...there are people around, at least a dozen!"

"They all have the same posture, with their backs to me, and they are watching the show motionless."

"But the next second, their bodies suddenly changed and started to burn. All of these people were burning!" The old woman's voice became sharp, "It started from the feet to the head. I could smell the crackling." It smells like a lake, but these people didn’t even move until they were burned to a crisp!”

"But not everyone was burned. There was one person among these people who was fine. He sat at the front and center. He waited until those people were burned to cokes before he walked onto the stage.

"After that, the stage and this man disappeared at the same time."

"All the charred corpses in front of the stage are gone."

"Then...then I woke up. When I woke up, I found that I was lying on the bed in my room. My body and quilt were soaked with cold sweat. Then, my two sons came over in a hurry with their clothes on. Yes, he said he heard my scream."

"I was so frightened that I finally finished telling them about this dream. They all comforted me and said that this was just a dream. They told me not to think too much about it, but... I knew that this was not a dream. It was definitely not a dream! This was real!

"

After listening for so long, the police officer felt nervous, but he still couldn't help but said: "Old...old man, you said it yourself. When you woke up, you found yourself lying on the bed at home."

The old woman raised her head, her cloudy eyes filled with weirdness. After a moment, the old woman raised her arm and struggled to pull up the right cuff. The next second, everyone present was stunned.

A dark handprint suddenly appeared on the old woman's skinny forearm.

"Then how do you explain this fingerprint?" the old woman asked in a hoarse voice.

The police officer and others found that this fingerprint could not be erased no matter what, it was more like it was printed directly into the flesh, so they connected all the recent events together, and they had to believe that there might really be something dirty inside. cause trouble.

After further questioning, the old woman provided two more important clues.

First, the time when she woke up from the dream was exactly 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.

Second, judging from the direction Gou Wa and his family were walking, it should be the direction to the west of the village.

"12 o'clock at midnight?" The police officer keenly grasped this point and asked calmly: "Old man, you have had such a nightmare, you should be very scared, why do you still want to pay attention to the time?"

The old woman shook her head, "My second son was working outside, and he would get home around 12 o'clock during that time. That day, as soon as he got home, he heard my scream."

The second son the old lady was talking about was standing next to him. He was a stout man who looked very honest. The man nodded in agreement with the old lady's words, and carefully took out an old pocket watch from his arms. He looked at the police officer and made a loud sound. Said: "Because I need it for my job, I was given a pocket watch to record the time."

"I remember it very clearly. I came home that day, took off my clothes, and looked at my pocket watch out of habit before going to bed. Then I heard my mother's scream, and then I rushed over."

"12 o'clock?" someone asked quietly.

The man turned his head and nodded seriously, "Yes, it's 12 o'clock midnight."

This moment of alternation of yin and yang once again added a mysterious flavor to the eucalyptus. The police officers stabilized their minds and prepared to start with another clue. They asked the villagers where the path to the west of the village led to. of.

Villagers responded that there are very few people walking on this road to the west, and it leads to mass graves outside the city, so everyone is more taboo about it.

Hearing the word "mass grave", the expressions of the police officers and the others became even worse.

They had no choice but to cover up the matter to a certain extent and then report it to the superiors. At the same time, they also made insinuations in the hope that the superiors would not investigate further.

Of course, it would be best to close this unlucky Roman Hotel permanently.

But things didn't work out as expected. After receiving their investigation report, the superiors were furious and issued a death order, requiring them to go to the mass grave outside the city and dig out the unknown charred corpse.

After all, because of this incident, there has been a commotion in the city outside. Everyone is secretly spreading rumors that these bosses have done something wrong and have offended the ghosts and gods, and they are seeking their lives.

After hearing this, the police officers didn't hesitate and resigned directly. They took off their clothes on the spot and threw them on the officer's desk. No one tried to persuade him, so they just left in their shorts.

Although these people quit, the police station had no choice but to send another team to investigate the matter due to pressure from the dignitaries behind the hotel.
