At that moment, I had merely spoken in jest. 0
 
I never expected this scene to truly unfold. 0
 
Yet, I didn't anticipate it would be so terrifying. 0
 
The footsteps grew closer. 0
 
I could already smell the thick stench of blood and decay. 0
 
A twisted shadow was cast upon the wall. 0
 
A glinting weapon was raised high, as if ready to strike at any moment. 0
 
My body was tense all over. 0
 
I didn't dare to breathe. 0
 
But I didn't turn back. 0
 
Because I was afraid of seeing the figure behind me. 0
 
Then, the person behind me suddenly spoke: 0
 
"Aren't you going to run?" 0
 
The voice was deep and hoarse, as if it came from hell itself. 0
 
 
I forced myself to suppress my fear and said calmly, "Escape? Why should we escape?" 0
 
"Tomorrow is First Day." 0
 
"What difference does it make if you kill me? You'll still have to bury your mother!" 0
 
The person behind me paused for a moment before bursting into a harsh laugh. 0
 
But just as the laughter abruptly ceased, he raised the weapon in his hand and swung it at me— 0
 
At that moment, an unexpected force yanked me sharply to the side. 0
 
Someone pulled me away! 0
 
I stumbled and fell into the corner of the kitchen. 0
 
Meanwhile, a sudden uproar of intense fighting erupted in the living room. 0
 
I looked up to see three men grappling with each other in the living room. 0
 
One of them, a tall man with a scruffy beard, wielded a kitchen knife and swung it wildly. 0
 
The other two men worked together to fend off his attacks. 0
 
The three of them were fighting fiercely. 0
 
Even I was taken aback by their ferocity. 0
 
 
It took me a full two minutes to realize. 0
 
The thin man in the middle was Officer Cui! 0
 
He was fighting with the Killer! 0
 
I quickly pulled out my phone to call the police, informing them that Officer Cui was also here. 0
 
After the police left, the atmosphere in the community became unusually tense and fearful. 0
 
The residents began discussing the previous Red Envelope incident. Some suggested that the Red Envelope should be returned, but Xiao Ma opposed this, arguing that those who had sent the Red Envelopes had already committed suicide, making a refund pointless. 0
 
One of the residents raised paranoid concerns, suggesting that Chen Jingyu might come back for revenge, implying that Chen Ranran's death could be a result of Chen Jingyu's retaliation. 0
 
Xiao Ma insisted that it was just a coincidence and questioned Chen Ranran's mental state. 0
 
The discussion in the group grew heated, and I felt uneasy. 0
 
I instinctively glanced out the window; there was wind outside, and the curtains fluttered slightly, reminiscent of last night's scene. 0
 
Suddenly, the sound of fireworks exploding outside shattered the night's silence. 0
 
I was startled by this sudden noise and couldn't help but reflect that this year's Spring Festival felt even quieter than in previous years. 0
 
At three in the morning, I suddenly woke up, feeling a painful pressure in my lower abdomen. I got up to go to the bathroom. 0
 
 
However, in the restroom, I heard a dull thudding sound, like the noise of renovation work. 0
 
Considering the late hour, I realized this might be unusual. 0
 
I listened carefully, and the sound seemed to be coming from the elevator area. 0
 
I immediately sent a message in the Owner Group to ask if anyone had heard any strange noises from the elevator. 0
 
Soon, several residents responded, saying they would come over to check it out. 0
 
They arrived at my place, and some leaned in to listen, confirming that there was indeed a sound coming from the elevator, but it later faded away. 0
 
Some speculated that someone might be trapped inside the elevator, but there were no cries for help. 0
 
I suggested a possibility that the person inside the elevator might be unable to call for help for some reason. 0
 
Half an hour later, the elevator repair personnel arrived on the scene and pried open the elevator doors with their tools. 0
 
When the doors opened, they discovered a pair of feet. 0
 
The police and forensic experts soon arrived and confirmed the identity of the deceased. 0
