“Brian Cooper, get in there! This time, you're dead for sure. Be smarter in your next life.” Jason Carter slammed hard and shouted loudly.
Brian Cooper was filled with rage. He could already feel his entire shoulder had lost all sensation, as if it had been crushed by that cold, deathly pale hand. At the same time, a bone-chilling cold enveloped his whole body, and it felt as if even his blood was about to freeze.
“You scumbags, after being classmates you actually want to kill me. Since that's the case, don't think you'll get away with it. If I'm going to die, I'm taking a few of you down with me.”
After saying this, he stopped resisting, gripping the arms of two classmates with all his strength.
The terrifying pulling force from behind kept dragging several people forward.
Jason Carter had already realized something was wrong and quickly backed away, not letting Brian Cooper grab him.
“No, no, let go of me, Brian Cooper, let go of me.”
“Please, I don't want to die, don't grab me, grab someone else.”
The two classmates who were caught were terrified, begging for mercy with voices choked with tears.
Brian Cooper thought he was already at death's door, and instead wasn't so afraid anymore. Surrounded by darkness, he said coldly, “Stop screaming. Since you want me dead, then I'll take you with me. Jason Carter, don't get cocky. If I die and become a ghost, I definitely won't let you off...”
“Bang~!”
With a loud bang, the deathly pale arm withdrew into the darkness, and the bathroom door slammed shut in an instant.
Brian Cooper and the two classmates who framed him disappeared from sight together.
The door was tightly closed, and there was no more movement.
Seeing this, Jason Carter finally let out a long sigh of relief, forcing a smile onto his still-shaken face.
Brian Cooper, you're finally finished.
“Jason Carter, you... you really killed Brian Cooper and the others...” Nearby, the others who witnessed this scene spoke, trembling.
Jason Carter's face twisted as he said, “Shut up. If it weren't for me just now, that ghost would have come out and we'd all be dead. What are you still standing here for? If you want to live, follow me. The three of them won't hold it off for long. Once the ghost kills them, it'll come out again, and then it'll be our turn to die.”
With that, he didn't say another word and turned to go upstairs.
“Jason Carter, why are we going back?”
“Going further down is a dead end. Who knows what else we might run into? If we go back, maybe we'll run into Eric Clark. If he's still alive, maybe he can save us,” Jason Carter said.
He was also filled with fear inside.
Because the more people die in the ghost domain, the more terrifying it becomes, and there really isn't much time left to escape.
Cold, dark, accompanied by the drip, drip of water, like a faucet not fully turned off.
Brian Cooper and the two classmates were dragged by that deathly pale hand into this pitch-black bathroom.
“Get out, let's get out of here.”
Kevin Reed and Ryan Morgan broke free from Brian Cooper, terrified, frantically feeling along the walls, trying to find the door and escape.
The cold, mottled walls were pitted and gave off a rotten smell.
The bathroom was only so big. Under normal circumstances, you could find the door and leave even with your eyes closed, but as the two of them groped around, all they found was this same wall in front of them.
Wall on the left, wall on the right... an endless wall blocked their way.
The door was gone...
“The door, where's the door? Where did it go? It was just here. Ryan Morgan, did you find it?” Kevin Reed asked, voice trembling and on the verge of tears.
“Nothing here either,” Ryan Morgan replied, his voice full of fear.
They frantically felt along the wall, not missing a single inch, trying to find the familiar bathroom door.
But no matter how they searched, they couldn't find the door to leave, only the mottled, icy wall.
Or rather, there simply was no door here at all.
While they were searching for the door, Brian Cooper's situation was even worse.
Because he could feel that cold hand gripping his shoulder, and at first only his shoulder was numb, but now his whole arm had lost sensation, and as time passed, the numbness was spreading... If it spread to his whole body, Brian Cooper was sure he would become a cold corpse.
Brian Cooper was drenched in cold sweat, struggling with all his might to break free.
It was useless. The place he was grabbed felt nailed down, completely immobile.
He tried every way to struggle, but nothing worked.
“Am I really going to die here?” That was the only thought in his mind at this moment.
In the end, maybe he accepted his fate.
He no longer felt fear, only thought that since he was going to die anyway, he might as well call his family and leave a last message.
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Brian Cooper's mouth. Enduring the cold and numbness, he took out his phone and tried to call his family.
But when he turned on his phone, the screen flashed, and what appeared was the forum story he had read earlier.
The story was already on the last page.
There was an audio file on the forum.
