“But…” The youth was confused. “From the looks of things, Lu Huaxu was Deep Red’s admirer. If Wu is also from Deep Red, why would he go after his partner? Plus, based on the state of Lu Huaxu’s death, he should be killed by the ghost. Furthermore, what could he do in twenty minutes? Even if he were with Deep Red, he had nothing to do with Sister Chen Yi’s death. After all, he cannot do anything in such a short period of time…”
The youth suddenly paused. Then, he realised something. There was a howling sound coming from the phone. It was the young person’s urgent breathing sound. Liu Guo’s condition was no better. Eventually, Liu Guo sounded like he had forced the words out of his closing throat. “Something… is wrong with the door.”
Inside Room 503, Wei Jingting grabbed something to eat and sat on the couch. He took out the laptop and placed it before him. He was a careful person. Other than the lights and the fridge, he had unplugged all the other electronics in the room.
Earlier, Liu Guo was not accurate. Even though the videos of Qiao Yu’s death had been removed, the laptop still contained Qiao Yu’s living information. It had multiple pictures and some videos.
He scanned the pictures one by one. At the same time, he started a profile of Qiao Yu. Soon, he found a folder. He opened it and found a video. He was familiar with the background. It was the cafe they visited that afternoon. However, the video was dark. It was taken at night. A few young people were gathered together. A cake was prepared on the table. There were wine glasses. The situation was joyful. It appeared to be someone’s birthday.
There were two males and two females. Soon, the four turned towards one direction. Then, a woman walked into view. The woman was tall and looked innocent. However, Wei Jingting could tell that the woman was a fake bitch.
When she saw the cake, the woman covered her hand to show a mixture of shyness and surprise. A fashionably dressed man in a nail leather jacket hugged her. Then, he dipped a bit of the cream on her nose. The girl pretended to struggle, but of course, she didn’t. She enjoyed this. She stuck out her tongue at the man.
This expression caused Wei Jingting to break out in goosebumps. From the girl’s perspective, she should have seen the cake before she came out. She was trying to maintain a cute persona.
Wei Jingting frowned. This video gave him a strange feeling. It was not the scene but the camera angle. This didn’t look like it was taken by one of the young people because the angle was horrible. Most of the time, their faces couldn’t be seen. If Wei Jingting had to guess, the person who took this video did it without getting the group’s permission. Someone hid in the dark to take a video of them. Who could it be?
Before he could think about it, the scene changed. Suddenly, someone shouted to shut off the lights. After the lights went out, the only light source was the candle. The fashionable man lit up the candles. He flung his bangs because he thought it was handsome. Then, he knelt on one knee before the girl. He pulled out a small red box from behind.
Based on Wei Jingting’s experience, this should be a silk jewellery box. It probably contained a ring. Then, things went as expected. The girl acted flustered. The man was sincere and recited the age-old statement. Then, with the aid of everyone else, they surrounded the couple. They cheered and played out the cliched plot. In the end, the couple hugged.
At that moment, the video suddenly flickered. One of the lights probably broke. However, the next second, Wei Jingting frowned deeply. He pulled the footage back. He did this again and again. After multiple times, he paused at the moment when there was a flash. He leaned close to the screen and focused on the lower end of the video. There appeared to be a piece of glass aimed at the person taking the video.
Then, Wei Jingting’s hands shook. He almost dropped the laptop. The glass showed half a woman’s face. The woman’s eyes had no pupils. That was a ghost’s face! The person who took this video stealthily was not a person but a ghost!
As if realising that it had been exposed, the video started to shake like crazy. Wei Jingting screamed and threw the laptop away. This broke the screen. The screen only showed static. It was mixed with indescribable sound.
Someone knocked on his door. Wei Jingting was frightened. He didn’t look at the door because the knocking… came from the laptop. No… It was not the laptop. There was someone knocking on the other side of the screen!
It was the ghost! It was inside the laptop!
Wei Jingting’s throat moved. He gathered his courage and charged at the laptop. He wanted to shut it down or at least break the monitor. The drop earlier closed the screen slightly. He couldn’t see the screen from his angle. As he grabbed the laptop and planned to smash it into the ground, he caught from the corner of his eye that the scene in the video had changed. It became a door, a rather old door. ṜаNŎＢЁŝ
The door had the sign for Room 503. A pale hand reached out from underneath the video.
Wei Jingting’s hair stood on end. He turned his neck robotically to look at the room door. Someone was knocking on his door!
His mind cleared. The video was not a video. It was the ghost’s perspective! The ghost was stalking the proposal party!
The group was clearly Lee Maoshen’s group. While they were celebrating, the ghost hid in the dark and stared at them coolly. This ghost was the key. It looked ghost murdered them.
It was too late… The ghost was already there for him.
The door on the screen opened. A white figure shot through in a flash. Wei Jingting stumbled to the ground. He couldn’t recover from fear.
