Nightmare Assault

Chapter 13: Slippers

Humans? Chen Xiaomeng widened her eyes.

Thats right. Sister Nuan subconsciously closed her hands around her collar and said darkly, Theyre scarier than ghosts.

The fire in the fireplace crackled. The fire lit up the whole living room. Man Li, who was seated before the fireplace, had his face darkened. He knew why Sister Nuan had kicked him out. The two ghosts in the bungalow were murdered by two men, so their targets were male. The middle-aged man and Xie Yu were the perfect examples. With that in mind, Man Li grabbed two new firewood and tossed them into the fireplace. The fire burned harder.

So far, the tragedy had been cleared up. In other words, the mission would end soon. However, that meant the ghosts would become more aggressive. Something would happen that night. The question was who would die. It was because of that he rejected Fattys idea of sleeping together.

The chance of him being attacked if he was alone was . If he stayed with the other two, the chance would be 100 percent.

And being targeted by ghosts Fear crossed his eyes. Ghosts rarely killed more than one person at one time, but it didnt mean that it wouldnt happen. Plus, he had his own plan. He had confidence he could survive until morning if he stayed beside the fireplace. Based on current evidence, the ghost died from drowning, and there was a burning flame before him.

In the study, Fatty knelt in the dark and didnt dare to breathe. Eventually, he poked his neck closer to where Jiang Cheng was sitting, and he whispered, Do you think the ghost will know that were hiding here?

Dont know.

Fatty sighed in relief, Thats good.

I meant I dont know, Jiang Cheng clarified.

After spending some time with Jiang Cheng, Fatty was used to being scared. He shivered for less than five seconds and could converse normally again.

To be serious, brother, Fatty stared at Jiang Cheng. I know youre not a normal person. Last night, when the ghost appeared, I was so scared. I didnt know anything, but you still remembered what she wore.

Youre not a model. Youre with the police, right?

Hope appeared on Fattys face.

However, Jiang Cheng glanced at him. Do you think well survive if Im with the police or show the ghost my badge?

Fattys hope was drenched again. He said helplessly, So, were done for?

Jiang Cheng was about to answer when Fatty raised his hand to stop him. Im going to guess youll say Im the only one whos done for, right?

Jiang Cheng shrugged. But, he latter added, But theres no need to be so pessimistic. There is still a chance to turn this around.

Just as Fatty raised his head to say something, Jiang Cheng hushed him. Fatty immediately shut up.

1 minute

2 minute

5 minute

10 minutes passed but Fatty still heard nothing. Nothing changed in the study. He was extremely nervous and perked up his ears.

Jiang Cheng stood up from his chair and glanced at the study table. Fatty heard him mumble about the lack of action.

Brother, Fatty was so shocked that his voice changed, Are you waiting for the ghost?

Shush. Jiang Cheng frowned as he headed to the door. Wait here. Ill go out to take a look.

Fatty quickly ran after him. No. We need to stick together.

Jiang Cheng and Fatty came to the corridor. The lights were still on, but they were very dim. Jiang Cheng didnt hesitate and went directly to the main bedroom. He knocked on it lightly. Several seconds later, an alerted female voice said, Who is it?

Its me. Jiang Cheng answered, Hao Shuai.

What are you doing here?

Jiang Cheng said seriously, I think something has happened to Man Li.

Hearing this, the door opened up more, but it was only a gap. Sister Nuan only showed one eye. How can you tell?

Jiang Cheng looked down the corridor where the stairs were and then added, Its not safe here. Can we talk inside?

Sister Nuan looked at Jiang Cheng and Fatty for a while before nodding, Okay.

The door opened. Sister Nuan stood behind it. They didnt switch on the light either. Once he heard that something might have happened to Man Li, Fatty became so nervous. He had no idea how Jiang Cheng came to that conclusion, but he chose to believe him. Jiang Cheng was the first to enter, and Fatty followed him. However, as he was about to enter the room, Jiang Cheng halted. He paused, and that caused Fatty to bump into him. Before Fatty could say anything, Jiang Cheng retreated to the corridor. At the same time, he pulled Fatty away with him.

Sister Nuan had already opened the door for him. Get in. Why are you wasting time?

She kept glancing down the corridor like something scary would appear there.

I forgot something important in my room. Jiang Cheng suddenly said, Ill be back after I get it.

Before Sister Nuan could react, Jiang Cheng grabbed Fatty and turned around. They rushed down the corridor. Fatty didnt think Jiang Cheng would be so strong despite his slender frame. He was practically dragged away by Jiang Cheng. His mind was blank. However, he was clever enough not to say anything. They came to the corner of the stairwell and the corner. Jiang Cheng pulled him into hiding.

What did you find out? Fatty asked between breaths.

He saw cold sweat drip down Jiang Chengs face. Jiang Cheng told him to be quiet as he leaned close to the corridor as if to listen. Several minutes later, his face returned to normal.

Somethings wrong with Sister Nuan, Jiang Cheng whispered.

Fattys face trembled, What do you mean?

She was wearing a pair of slippers.

Slippers?

Yes. Jiang Cheng nodded. I saw them when I entered the door earlier. He continued, We all know how dangerous this bungalow is. We could be chased at any time. Why would she remove her normal shoes and change into a pair of slippery slippers?
