The white second-hand Jetta created a streak of lightning on the street in the early morning.
"Nothing will happen, nothing will happen."
By the time Chu Ping arrived in Beicheng District, only ten minutes had passed.
"No one?"
Chu Ping stood in the community and looked at the window of Han Sanpin's house. It was dark, like a black hole condensed with countless darkness.
Chu Ping was worried about the safety of Han Sanpin and his family, so he didn't care so much and rushed directly into the corridor.
The corridor was extremely quiet in the early morning, as if there was a trap ahead, just waiting for Chu Ping to walk into it.
Chu Ping entered the corridor and stamped his feet vigorously. The voice-activated lights that were supposed to turn on in response were now like extinguished candles.
Looking up, in the corridor ahead, only the green light reflected by the sign for the safe passage was shining not far away.
But in this case, the dim green light seemed even more terrifying.
The corridor that he had walked through countless times now actually made Chu Ping feel a little panicked.
Chu Ping held the swing stick on his lower back in his hand, and with his other hand he turned on the flashlight that came from Lin Tian. The sudden light gave Chu Ping a little sense of security.
Then he slowly walked towards Han Sanpin's house.
One step, two steps, three steps...
In the quiet corridor, the sound of Chu Ping's footsteps echoed there. Every step he took was so careful, for fear of breaking the peace here.
Or provoke some other things.
Just when Chu Ping focused all his attention on the corner of the corridor in front, there was a sudden sound of the door opening behind him.
Chu Ping was frightened by the sudden sound, which seemed to be a tremor from his soul.
He suddenly turned around, holding the pitch black stick in his hand across his chest. As long as there was any disturbance, Chu Ping would immediately throw the stick out of his hand.
At the same time, the flashlight in his hand also shone in the direction of the sound, and he saw a security door not far away, creaking and shaking.
"Is there really someone?"
Chu Ping didn't expect that there would be another person following him in this silent corridor. Now that he thinks about it, it's really creepy.
"What on earth is that man going to do?"
Chu Ping wasn't sure, but he wasn't going to get to the bottom of it. After all, the most important thing now was Han Sanpin's family. "This is the second floor. That person seems to have been hiding in the safe passage. Could he be a thief?"
Chu Ping gave himself a reasonable explanation, but he always felt uneasy in his heart.
Continuing upward, it was now three-thirty in the morning, and there was already a glimmer of light outside. The dark night seemed to be a little white mixed into the black paint, making the original black no longer so pure.
When Chu Ping just reached the corner of the stairs, the window there seemed to be blown by the wind, making a squeaking sound.
The sound of the window frame being blown, amplified by the silence, seemed very harsh.
Chu Ping casually pressed the open window, and the annoying squeaking sound just now finally stopped.
Chu Ping casually glanced outside. In the originally dim community, something seemed to flash past. Judging from the figure, it looked a bit like a child.
"A child?"
Chu Ping thought of the people hiding at the safety exit just now.
"Could they be the same person?"
After closing the window, Chu Ping's cell phone suddenly lit up with a text message.
Chu Ping frowned and was a little curious as to who was sending messages to him so late.
"Are you there?"
It's Han Yanyan again.
Chu Ping couldn't help but take a breath. He clearly remembered the situation when he called Han Yanyan before and was scolded bloody.
"exist."
Chu Ping was curious about what would happen if he replied to the text message.
"Are you there?"
The phone screen lit up again, and there was another message from Han Yanyan, and the content was still the same two words.
Chu Ping felt a chill running down his spine. He glanced at the third floor not far away and then at his phone. He didn't seem to understand what was going on.
"?"
Chu Ping replied again, just a simple question mark.
Immediately afterwards, the phone's screen lit up again, and as Chu Ping expected, there were still those two words.
Chu Ping seemed to sense that something was wrong and hurriedly dialed Han Yanyan's mobile phone number with his mobile phone. However, there was still a busy tone on the other side.
Chu Ping had no choice but to continue moving forward.
Arriving on the third floor, just when Chu Ping raised his hand to knock on the door, the door of Han Sanpin's house was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
One eye peeked out from the crack in the door, and then it just kept staring at Chu Ping without saying a word.
Through the crack in the door, Chu Ping found that the room was completely dark and he couldn't see what was going on inside.
"I want to see Yanyan."
Because of the dim environment, Chu Ping did not recognize the owner of this eye at all.
"Yanyan hasn't woken up yet."
The voice of the owner of that eye seemed a bit sharp, which made Chu Ping feel uncomfortable.
"Then I'll wait for her here."
Chu Ping showed his shameless momentum to the fullest.
In fact, before this, Chu Ping still had a glimmer of hope, but when he saw the eye peeking out from the crack in the door, Chu Ping's heart was half cold.
"It looks like something really happened."
Chu Ping recognized the owner of this eye, who was Han Sanpin's wife, but looking at it now, it was obvious that the other party didn't recognize him at all.
"Why don't you come in and sit down."
The third aunt's voice was very unpleasant.
"Creak——"
The gap in the door opened a little again, just enough for Chu Ping to get through.
"This... is not good. Let Yanyan come out."
Chu Ping was not embarrassed to enter the room, but he was worried that after entering the room, he would not be able to get out. God knows what terrible things would be in there.
"······"
The third aunt hesitated for a moment, but Chu Ping did not rush her. They just looked at each other for a while, as if waiting for the other to speak first.
"Wait a while, Yanyan has slept long enough."
While talking, the third aunt turned around and entered the house.
Chu Ping looked at his third aunt, and then looked at the time on his phone.
"It's not even four o'clock yet. Have you slept long enough? What happened here after I left?"
The third aunt moved quickly and came out of the house not long after, and what followed her was Han Yanyan, whom she had just met during the day.
At this time, Han Yanyan's eyes were wide open, and she looked like she had just woken up.
"Yanyan, are you okay?"
Normally, as soon as Chu Ping said these words, he would be met with an angry rebuke, but now Han Yanyan looked well-behaved and smiled at Chu Ping.
