Chapter 868: Chapter 477 Fear Spreads_2

Just as the thought arose, a barely audible faint sound suddenly came from the door outside the wardrobe, and Luo Wenli felt terrified, her heart clenching together.

Unconsciously, she reached out and tightly grabbed the neatly stacked quilts inside the wardrobe, while her other hand covered her mouth, afraid of making noise involuntarily due to fright.

Soon, footsteps entered the room.

The sound was very light, but each step was audible, and it seemed to move very slowly.

A strong sense of fear, like the darkness around, quickly surged towards Luo Wenli, she couldn’t help but start trembling, looking through the wardrobe’s ventilation slats, but she could see nothing.

Intuitively, the sound had already come close to the wardrobe, as if it was standing outside.

At the same moment, whether it was an illusion or a real sensation, Luo Wenli felt the air inside the dark space of the wardrobe she was hiding in suddenly turn colder, as if something in the darkness was approaching her.

She subconsciously looked to her left.

Because the wardrobe’s space is quite large, apart from hanging coats on top, the bottom usually held a lot of seasonal quilts.

If it were to hide people, even though the inside was already filled with folded quilts and a row of heavy coats, two or three adults could still squeeze in.

And now Luo Wenli had an illusion, that she hadn’t noticed before, that right next to her in this pitch-dark space within the wardrobe, something was lurking there.

Upon this thought, she suddenly remembered how she had panicked when the daylight suddenly darkened, fumbled around in the room for a while, and then found the doorway to the hallway outside.

Later, out of fear, she returned and then closed the room door.

During that time, could something have entered?

With that thought, the fear in her heart intensified, and she couldn’t help but tremble even more violently.

Her vision was engulfed in darkness, but Luo Wenli still couldn’t help but reach her hand into the darkness next to her; the next second, her fingers touched something ice cold.

Gently pressing down, what she touched was not the winter coats hanging beside her; something else seemed to be behind the clothes.

Reaching a bit further forward, her fingers quickly touched cold skin.

“Uh—”

A strange noise suddenly sounded close to her ear, almost a dreamy whisper near her face; Luo Wenli never expected that the thing in the darkness was already so close to her.

At the same moment, the person who had approached the wardrobe outside suddenly spoke: “Mom, are you inside?”

“I…”

Luo Wenli was shocked, finally realizing that hiding inside the wardrobe was akin to walking into a trap; as she was about to scream, something covered her mouth.

With a swish! Zhang Xiaomo opened the wardrobe door, the magnetic glow brightened, revealing Xiaomo’s cheeks.

In Xiaomo’s view, she saw her mother in the wardrobe leaning backward with a ghastly pale arm reaching out, palm covering her mouth, dragging her into the wardrobe.

Xiaomo was startled, seeing Luo Wenli almost gasping for air; the magnetic glow surged, and with a swift motion, she slashed at the pale arm with a knife.

The pallid arm was immediately severed; Xiaomo reached out and grabbed her mother’s collar, pulling her towards the outside of the wardrobe.

The next second, another ghastly pale hand reached out; Xiaomo immediately swung her knife to block and slashed diagonally, but due to Luo Wenli blocking in front, the blade didn’t fully cut through.

With a bang, the other side of the wardrobe door opened, and a dark shadow leapt out.

Xiaomo supported her terrified mother who couldn’t stand up, while with her other hand, she made a horizontal chop, but still missed the dark shadow.

The magnetic glow flickered briefly, as Xiaomo’s Magnetic Energy Control failed to connect, causing it to extinguish instantly.

However, in the next second, the boundless darkness in the room suddenly brightened, with light from outside the window shining in, instantly lighting up the whole room.

It was restored!

Zhang Xiaomo glanced out of the window; it was still daytime.

Looking back at her mother, Luo Wenli was pale, panting heavily, patting her chest with her right hand.

“Mom, are you alright?” Zhang Xiaomo asked.

Luo Wenli touched her neck, then shook her head: “I’m fine, what about that… strangeness?”

Zhang Xiaomo looked towards the room doorway, which was half-open at the moment, and a half blood handprint was still visible on the lower part of the door panel.

She supported Luo Wenli as they both stepped out of the room, stopping in the corridor.

As long as light could penetrate, even standing in this second-floor corridor, they could see clearly without any lights.

After stopping in the corridor, both of their gazes shifted forward, Luo Wenli immediately looked terrified, covering her mouth, watching a slowly moving shadow in front of her.

In this corridor, at this moment, there was a silhouette slowly moving towards the direction of the staircase, the figure was none other than Auntie Deng.

Auntie Deng’s right arm had fractured from the elbow, blood was dripping in threads to the floor, but she seemed totally unaware.

Just like that, she slowly moved towards the staircase, her feet almost dragging on the floor, moving step by step, bit by bit.

Luo Wenli leaned into Zhang Xiaomo’s ear, lowering her voice to ask, “Is she… a human or a strangeness?”

Zhang Xiaomo was silent for a moment, then said, “She might have been possessed.”

“Is there still a chance to save her?” Luo Wenli’s eyes showed a trace of compassion as she asked again.
