The noise outside the train, speeding through the darkness, was becoming more intense. Lights inside the carriage kept flickering, and a chilling air spread as Sha Sha, hugged her head and curled up on the bed. The window only showed pitch darkness; she had no idea what was outside.
The violent shaking and crashing sounds came one after another. Time ticked by, every second elevating everyone’s anxiety.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, as the train sped up, the noises outside gradually decreased and eventually quieted down.
"We are about to enter the tunnel!"
Chen Sixuan was watching the train’s large screen and then looked towards the intense darkness ahead before saying nervously to Lin Xian, "Stop the train!"
The wheels halted, producing a loud screeching noise from the friction with the tracks, and Lin Xian brought the train to a stop.
"Will those monsters...," Chen Sixuan said tensely.
"I don’t know, but it’s almost dawn, and I’m worried about heading into the tunnel in the dark in case we get buried."
Lin Xian’s concerns were not unfounded; even though they were surrounded by danger outside, the armor of the Infinity train seemed sturdy enough. However, recklessly charging into an unknown tunnel could lead to a collapse triggered by monsters, plunging them into complete despair.
The heavy train shoveled through the snow and stopped on the tracks, and the surroundings seemed to calm down.
After waiting for a while, there were no more sounds of impacts or crawling. It seemed no monsters had followed them, and simultaneously, the time reached 4:00 AM, almost dawn.
Yet, Lin Xian was far from relaxed and asked Chen Sixuan, "Teacher Chen, earlier Sha Sha mentioned something strange on the train, did you see anything?"
Chen Sixuan shook her head, picking up the nearby walkie-talkie.
"I don’t know; this walkie-talkie is intermittent, just like that day in the fog."
At that moment, Sha Sha’s voice came from carriage 1, and hearing it, Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan immediately ran over.
As they entered carriage 1, they saw Sha Sha, her face filled with terror, pointing towards the sofa where she had thrown the radio. The Mysterious Blood Essence on it was emitting a red glow.
Moreover, the radio was eerily making a sound.
Building then also rushed over with a gun, the group looked in horror at the radio on the sofa. Sha Sha’s face was full of fear as she stammered, pointing at the radio with wide eyes,
The black radio on the sofa had its orange-yellow frequency numbers blinking continuously, and the various tuning knobs were eerily moving.
The knobs seemed to be breathing like they were alive!
"I just put the red bead on it, and then it started making noises by itself..." Sha Sha said fearfully.
Building, looking solemn, stepped forward to stand in front of Sha Sha.
"Be careful, our walkie-talkie had the same issue just now."
Sha Sha, hearing this, peeked from behind Building and hurriedly said, "Me... I just experienced it too. I was talking to Sister Chen, and Sister Chen even said she would find me a pair of gloves. Then suddenly she stopped talking. When I asked her again, a voice very similar to Sister Chen’s suddenly came from behind me, saying it was right behind me, which really scared me, but when I turned around, no one was there."
Lin Xian frowned, "Talking behind your back?"
Sha Sha quickly nodded, her face filled with fear.
Chen Sixuan, who had been listening to this, suddenly covered her mouth in fright, her eyes widened, "I... I never said I’d find you gloves. When did you talk to me?"
As soon as she said this, the atmosphere in the carriage drastically shifted, a sinister chill spreading amongst them.
Chen Sixuan’s words almost made Sha Sha cry; she frowned, stepping back quickly with a dreadful expression, "Sister Chen, don’t scare me!"
"It’s true," Chen Sixuan said with a furrowed brow and unease, "My walkie-talkie hasn’t rung at all."
Hearing this, Sha Sha immediately exclaimed, "Oh my god... there’s something else in our car!"
At this moment, the static noise from the radio on the sofa started to intensify.
The four of them looked alert at this development.
At this time, the orange-yellow frequency digits suddenly began to flash wildly, and the crackling sound from the radio also became more intense, while they seemed to begin hearing intermittent voices coming from it!
"Sss... no... sss want... no..."
"Don’t... sss open... sss"
"Sss... don’t open... 15... sss... sss"
"Sss... 1... 5... 4... 2... don’t... contact... anyone... ssssss"
The voice was terrified, filled with strong fear.
"Is someone saying something?!" Chen Sixuan exclaimed in surprise.
"1542?" Lin Xian’s face changed drastically at this moment, a bizarre thought rising from the depths of his mind.
But the next moment, the warning sound suddenly stopped, and a clear, eerie melody rang out again, immediately changing the colors of the few people.
"Sss... Happy Birthday to you... Happy Birthday to you..."
"Happy... Birthday... to... you..."
The voices quickly became deep and hoarse, as if a demon was whispering.
"Happy... Birth... Day... To... You..."
"Lin Xian, look quickly!"
At this moment, Chen Sixuan exclaimed.
The frequency digits on the radio started flashing more intensely, then suddenly stopped, fixing on a chilling number.
At the same time, the lights throughout the train flickered eerily.
Instantly, the air seemed to freeze.
Everyone’s pupils shrank in an instant, a chill running down their spines!
Lin Xian’s expression darkened, his mind suddenly recalling the words he had heard at the community bonfire earlier.
"From Ping-ah Lake to the jungles, North Bay, and Daluo Mountain, a mysterious 1542 radio frequency appeared, and three teams have received it at night, and there have been cases of missing persons..."
"...The reason this is described so is mainly because these sightings are often accompanied by supernatural phenomena..."
"Everyone, be careful." Lin Xian called out sharply, his eyes fierce and cold sweat on his forehead, he sternly said
"This thing is somewhat evil!"
After boarding the train, he initially wanted Sha Sha to search for useful information through the Dark Radio as soon as possible, to remind him whether to change routes at Daluo Mountain ahead, but after installing the Mysterious Blood Essence on the radio, things became even more bizarre.
Lin Xian felt a sinking in his heart, sensing an unsettling presence from the radio, so he made a quick decision, promptly stepped forward, and removed the Mysterious Blood Essence from the radio.
The light on the radio went out, the noise stopped abruptly, and it returned to normal.
Lin Xian felt the cold touch from the Blood Essence in his hand, his heart slightly relaxed
"Okay, now it should...."
Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and involuntarily turned around.
He looked behind him, his pupils slowly focusing, a chill running through him, every hair on his body seeming to stand on end at this moment.
In the dark number 1 carriage.
There was not a single person!
