Nightmare Attack

Chapter 5 Vigil

The middle-aged man turned his head and looked at the strong man. Unexpectedly, the strong man glared back.

The scene ended in a slightly awkward atmosphere.

The strong man stood up and said it was too late to talk anymore. He went to watch the night first and urged everyone to rest early.

The strong man keeps watch from 10 o'clock to 12 o'clock, with 6 hours left.

After discussion, Jiang Cheng and others decided that Jiang Cheng would guard 12 o'clock to 2 o'clock, and the middle-aged man would guard 2 o'clock to 4 o'clock. Fatty was not very reliable due to his appearance, so he would guard 4 o'clock to 6 o'clock, which was relatively less dangerous.

The strong man moved a thick mat and sat around the fireplace to warm himself up. The flames illuminated his face.

The sofa where Jiang Cheng was lying was next to the fat man's. The middle-aged man was a little far away from them, at the other end of the living room.

"Brother," the fat man stretched his neck and asked softly, "Are you asleep?"

Jiang Cheng turned over, leaving him with his back.

During the two hours that the strong man kept vigil, Jiang Cheng remained awake, but fortunately, except for the sound of burning firewood, nothing happened.

When the time was up, the strong man came over and pushed Jiang Cheng, and Jiang Cheng "woke up".

"Be smart during the night watch, and wake us up loudly if necessary," the strong man seemed worried, and continued: "The probability of those things happening around 12 o'clock at night is highest."

"What things?" Jiang Cheng stood up and asked.

The strong man's face turned ugly, but he still lowered his voice and said: "Supernatural incident."

After a brief exchange, the strong man lay down on the sofa in front of Jiang Cheng, while Jiang Cheng walked over, sat by the fireplace, and took on the responsibility of keeping vigil.

The surroundings were quiet, with almost no sound except for the occasional snoring of the fat man.

The middle-aged man and the strong man both had their eyes closed, as if they were sleeping, but Jiang Cheng suspected that they were actually awake, just like he was just now.

Two hours passed quickly. Jiang Cheng walked to the other side of the living room and pushed the middle-aged man awake.

There was no unnecessary communication between the two. Jiang Cheng went back to sleep. The middle-aged man picked up the mineral water bottle and drank some water before walking to the fireplace.

First, he added some firewood inside, and then sat cross-legged in front of the fireplace.

The pocket watch was also in his hand.

The middle-aged man is not as experienced as the strong man and the woman, but he has survived two missions, so he clearly knows what the strong man means by supernatural beings.

More aware of their horror.

Just as Jiang Cheng guessed, the middle-aged man hadn't slept since the strong man's vigil, always wary of something bad that might happen.

An hour and a half passed and nothing happened.

During this period, he added more firewood. The fire in the fireplace was burning brightly, which warmed the middle-aged man's body. It seemed that this could dispel the chill in his heart.

Two hours were coming soon, and his shift was over. He slowly stood up and turned to look at the window.

Through the gap between the curtains, it seemed that the sky outside was getting a little brighter.

People in nightmares are paranoid about the night and particularly love the day.

Middle-aged men are no exception.

Just when he was moving his limbs to wake up the fat man in the next class, a strong urge to urinate suddenly emerged, which even caught him off guard.

He stared at the mineral water bottle in his hand. Did he drink too much?

The fact that daybreak was approaching made him feel more at ease. He turned around and saw that the bathroom was in the corner of the living room, no more than 20 meters away.

Calculating the time, I could just wake up the fat man after returning from the bathroom.

There should be no problem.

He adjusted his glasses and slowly walked towards the bathroom in the corner.

Carefully open the door and carefully turn on the water. The bathroom door is wide open. Anyway, there are men in the living room. Besides, this is the dream world.

After shaking, the middle-aged man felt relaxed after draining the water.

To be honest, after working hard all day and not sleeping for 6 hours, his physical strength and energy could no longer keep up. After all, he was not a young man in his 20s.

Looking at his tired self in the mirror in front of him, the middle-aged man sighed, took off his glasses, turned on the faucet, and poured a handful of cold water on his face.

The water was freezing cold, but it made him feel good.

Just when he was about to wash his clothes for the second time, he glanced at the mirror from the corner of his eye and suddenly found a person standing behind him in the reflection of the mirror.

The arrival was silent and no footsteps were heard.

"who?!"

The fright only lasted for less than a second, and then the middle-aged man calmed down. Although he was not wearing glasses, he could not see clearly the face of the person coming, but the fat body still betrayed the person's identity.

"it's me."

Hearing the voice of the fat man, the middle-aged man was completely relieved, and then he said dissatisfiedly: "Next time you come here, please tell me not to appear behind me suddenly."

The middle-aged man wiped his face with his sleeves, put on his glasses, and turned around while shaking off the water on his hands.

But the moment he turned around completely, he felt a chill from head to toe, and his veins seemed to be filled with ice.

There is no one behind me.

What about the fat man?

Where did the fat man go? !

His eyes turned red almost instantly, and he subconsciously wanted to look back at the mirror, but he didn't because he felt his shoulders sink, as if something was resting on them.

Its daybreak.

The three people sleeping in the room on the second floor were almost the same as the people in the living room, and one person was left to keep vigil throughout the night.

The male clerk who was huddled in a corner of the bedroom was about to yawn when he was interrupted by a howl like a slaughtering pig, which also frightened him so much that he almost fell off his chair.

The woman and the innocent girl sleeping in the bed were also awakened by the scream.

They looked at each other and rushed downstairs.

Jiang Cheng and the strong man surrounded the fat man, while the fat man sat on the ground, frightened and pale. It was self-evident who the pig-killing scream came from.

The three of them stared at the bathroom in the corner.

With fear, uneasiness, and doubt.

The woman with a mole on her lip looked around, but did not find the middle-aged man. She was already prepared.

She shook off the hand of the innocent girl and walked to the bathroom alone.

The door of the bathroom was open, and she stood in front of the door and glanced inside quickly.

Even as experienced as she was, she took a deep breath.

The middle-aged man stood straight in front of the mirror, his body facing the direction of the door, his back to the mirror, but his head twisted 180 degrees and facing the mirror backwards.

Through the reflection of the mirror, you can see that the middle-aged man's eyes are wide open, almost falling out of his eye sockets.

After calming down, the woman walked to the middle-aged man vigilantly, and then the strong man.

Jiang Cheng followed after observing for a few seconds, standing outside the bathroom door and looking inside.

The woman removed her hand from the middle-aged man's neck and said after a while: "He was suddenly broken by a huge force."

This was obvious, so naturally no one raised any objections.

"He was severely frightened before he died," the strong man added, staring into the middle-aged man's eyes.
