"Pah, pah, pah -"

Karasawa Makoto felt extremely anxious, lying behind the door and listening to the movement in the corridor.

The footsteps probably came from the staircase aisle.

Step by step is very urgent, getting closer and closer.

In just a few steps, I arrived at the location between the two houses in this unit.

Karasawa Makoto's heart was in her throat - perhaps, there was only a door between her and the cannibal.

The next moment, she heard footsteps walking towards the opposite door.

Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of the door on the opposite side opening——

"squeak!"

When I opened the door, there seemed to be no obstruction at all.

What followed was a scream from the neighbor across the door.

The first-person perspective image appeared in front of Karasawa Makoto again——

A middle-aged woman collapsed on the ground, looking at the camera with horror on her face.

She was trembling all over and letting out continuous screams of terror.

The scream reached Makoto Karasawa's ears from the other side of the door, and it was in perfect harmony with the scene in the camera. It was like the original soundtrack in a thriller movie.

The camera zoomed in...and pulled back...zoomed in again...backed up a little, and only a pair of feet wearing old-fashioned leather shoes were left on the floor.

The lens went dark and the picture disappeared.

Karasawa Makoto heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from outside the door again. It passed through the corridor between two houses, and then entered the staircase passage. The sound became farther and farther away and became smaller and smaller.

After calming down a little, Karasawa Makoto opened the resident group, and the messages in it filled the screen again.

In addition to a bunch of exclamation marks and scary emoticons, many people are asking which floor the monster has reached.

What left Makoto Karasawa speechless was that several men sent her friend requests through private messages.

Someone also used the APP's super VIP rights to initiate a temporary private chat call: "Madam, I noticed you... I think we can help each other, you know... I can take risks to protect you."

Speechless...

Karasawa Makoto probably understood that this was because he was too anxious just now and sent a voice message in the group, which was heard by many people. But when has this happened? Is there still time to add friends? Please, it will be soon.

More people were eaten.

Karasawa Makoto thought for a while and sent a text message in the group:

"The monster just came to the third unit on the third floor and killed the resident next to me. Now it has left and entered the stairway. I need to remind you: the monster can directly open the door. Locking the door is useless. I heard

The neighbor on the opposite door put several locks on it and it was opened all at once. In addition, when the monster appeared, there was the sound of footsteps."

Someone immediately replied: "Sure enough, we went to the third floor, so it will be the fourth floor's turn next... Is the monster targeting the third unit?"

"Oops, I'm on the fourth floor of unit three! Do I want to escape from the house now?"

"You just entered the staircase passage, are you too late now?"

"I'm on the fifth floor of unit three..."

"I'm on the seventh floor..."

"Don't..." someone advised: "Looking at the situation just now, you will only die faster if you go out!"

As the messages on the screen continued to refresh, a terrifying live broadcast came again.

The victims this time were an old couple who were leaning on the peephole of the door to peek at the condition of the corridor outside.

The moment the man-eating camera pounced on the old woman, her wife looked horrified, but still mustered up the courage, shouted, stood in front of the old woman, and pounced towards the monster instead.

Unfortunately, it's of no use.

Two people were eaten one after another in just over twenty seconds.

The atmosphere among the residents became more solemn.

Someone reported the location of this old couple - "The two old people are my neighbors. They have no children. They are usually very affectionate. They always go out to exercise and buy groceries together. Alas... we live in unit 5 on the fourth floor."

"

"!!"

"!?!?"

In the household group, a barrage of incomprehensible exclamation points and question marks flooded the screen.

Someone summarized:

"In other words, does the monster not only focus on three units, but kill people randomly? Every unit may be selected by it?"

"..."

“#￥%……&%#”

"I'm completely in despair. If I go out, I'm looking for death. If I stay at home, I'm waiting for death. I feel like I'm really at the end of my rope!"

Someone thought of the police again.

"Do the police know the situation here? Didn't a lot of people call the police just now? Didn't they say that special investigators are being arranged to come over? Eight people have died, why haven't the police come over? We must wait until everyone has arrived

Will you bow and apologize at a press conference only if you die?"

This sentence shocked the group of residents, and all kinds of swear words about the police's efficiency came one after another.

"Asshole police!"

"brute!!"

"￥...&%￥..."

Karasawa Makoto feels that swearing will not help solve the problem at all, and the residents' anger and panic may push the matter to a worse situation.

After thinking for a while, she sent another message——

"Don't blame the police in a hurry! Only twenty minutes have passed since the monster appeared. No matter how fast the police are, they won't be able to get here so quickly.

Moreover, with this monster's weird killing methods and terrifying level, even if the police do come, they may not be able to deal with it.

If you think about it carefully, judging from the previous killings by the monster, it is obvious that it follows a certain killing pattern.

It is better to ask for help than to ask for yourself! Now, the most important thing we residents who are in the dilemma and edge of death should do is to find out how to figure out its killing pattern.

I believe that as long as we can do this, we will have a chance to save ourselves. At least, we can improve our chances of survival. When the police arrive, we can also provide more effective and useful information to help everyone get out of trouble."

"I have to say, what this lady said makes sense. Hey...it seems to be the lady with the nice voice who sent the voice message just now."

"The pattern of killing?"

"Yes, for example - the first rule is that the monster eats people, starting with the head, and the footage of it eating people can be seen live in the apartment by everyone.

The second rule is that after the monster eats, it will leave behind a pair of feet of the deceased.

The third rule is that monsters seem to move from bottom to top. They only enter one house on each floor to eat people, but they will randomly select targets.

The fourth rule is that people who leave the room and plan to escape will be targeted and eaten by monsters first.

The fifth rule is that there are footsteps when a monster approaches..."

"Article 6, monsters can pick locks." Someone added.

The news brought the residents back to their senses. Everyone summarized eight or nine rules for killing monsters. After Makoto Karasawa carefully recorded them, because of his calmness and rationality, he was unanimously elected as the representative by the residents to communicate with the police.

.

After telling the operator the rules that the residents had sacrificed their lives for, Karasawa Makoto also gained something important——

Police retrieved information about the monster from a platform called the Weird Database.

The monster's name is [Kumada Nobuhiko], and he is a real man-eating monster.

Residents alone will never be able to get out of the fog of Nobuhiko Kumada. Therefore, for residents currently trapped in the apartment, the best choice is to stay in their rooms and wait for rescue. As for when the rescue will take place

It depends on when the investigator from Beihai arrives.

Because it seems that only that investigator has the opportunity and ability to confront Nobuhiko Kumada.

After hearing the news, even a staunch optimist like Karasawa Makoto despaired. Beihai is too far away from here. When the investigators arrive tomorrow morning, there will probably be only a few hundred bloody pairs left in the entire apartment.

feet.

Fortunately, the police also provided several bizarre murder patterns that Karasawa Makoto didn't know about.

1. The premise for Kumada Nobuhiko to kill is that the person being killed must see Kumada Nobuhiko’s face. If Kumada Nobuhiko’s face cannot be seen, he will not be killed.

2. Once Nobuhiko Kumada appears next to the person being killed, the person being killed will look at Nobuhiko Kumada uncontrollably (it is a mental control that is difficult for ordinary people to resist).

3. Be careful of the large bloody footprints in the corridor. Those are Kumada Nobuhiko's footprints. After stepping on the bloody footprints, you will be locked by Kumada Nobuhiko, and the other party will appear next to this person in a short period of time.

4. When a resident walks out of the room, he will be stared at by Nobuhiko Kumada, who will wait on the route of the prey, or find the prey directly, and he will be temporarily safe when he returns to the room.

5. Only the law of killing can counter the law of killing...
