Chapter 1 A Mysterious Neighbor

Golden-haired Sister Angie and the four others who came later paled at the sight. The villa they were in was now completely sealed off by those monsters.

If they wanted to return to their original houses, they would have to break through the monsters' encirclement.

Shen Wei could return to his own villa, but aside from Angie, he didn't want to bring the other four. He knew better than to invite trouble.

So, just as Shen Wei was trying to take advantage of the others' inattention to drag the golden-haired nun back to his own villa,

the chubby neighbor lady opened the door to her villa and said to everyone,

"If you want to escape from here, come into my villa. I know how to get out of here. We can cooperate. Of course, believe it or not, it's up to you..."

The chubby neighbor lady's words stunned the six of them, even Shen Wei, who had already grabbed the golden-haired nun's hand, stopping in his tracks. The approaching monsters were extremely fast, about to rush up to them. Seeing the others hesitating, the chubby neighbor lady had no choice but to slowly close the door to her villa.

At this critical moment, the four who had come later, led by the burly white man, rushed into the chubby neighbor lady's villa courtyard.

"Shen Wei, what do we do? Do we go in or not?..."

The golden-haired nun was already engaged with the monsters, the crucifix in her hand emitting a white light, forcing the monsters back.

"Let's take a gamble!"

Shen Wei's eyes flickered, but in the end, as if he had made a decision, he pulled the golden-haired nun into the chubby neighbor lady's closing villa gate.

Unexpectedly, the chubby neighbor lady's villa courtyard was very safe, with no monsters attacking.

The six of them entered the chubby lady's villa, fully alert. It was not only very tidy, but also had the scent of air freshener.

"This is strange. I feel safer here than in our villas."

The golden-haired nun whispered in Shen Wei's ear.

"Not so. There may be a greater danger lurking beneath the surface. And it's not normal that a seemingly ordinary chubby lady can navigate this dangerous, unknown world with ease. I believe the others have also seen that she's not right."

Shen Wei subtly glanced at the other four. Some were looking at the environment inside the villa, some were staring at the chubby neighbor lady, observing her every move, and others had a thoughtful expression, wondering what they were thinking.

Just then, the chubby neighbor lady, who had been silent as a wooden doll, finally spoke.

"I know you all suspect me, but what I'm about to say may be beyond your comprehension. Actually, I am the owner of this villa, but I've been trapped here for a long time. I've forgotten exactly how long, but if you want to leave here, you must listen to my instructions..."

"You're the owner of the villa, so why aren't those terrifying things chasing you in your villa?"

The black man dressed as a witch doctor asked with a serious face.

"Because... because I'm not only the owner of this villa, but also a Chosen One. Some of these terrifying monsters have been dealt with by me, and some have been lured out of the villa. By the way, this villa has a certain protective effect on us, I believe you should also know that."

"Why should we believe you?..."

The burly white man said with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"To be honest, you're really suspicious. I have the urge to draw my sword and chop you down..."

The Japanese man in a kimono revealed a wicked smile.

The Harley Quinn look-alike chewed gum, a presumptuous smile on her face, as if watching a play. The burly white man, Shen Wei, and the golden-haired nun Angie remained silent, watching from the sidelines.

"Just because I know how to escape from here, I don't know if that's enough. Of course, if you already know how to escape from here, then pretend I didn't say anything..."

The chubby lady showed a strange smile and then spread her hands indifferently.

"The method to escape from here? Tell us about it..."

Shen Wei crossed his legs and said nonchalantly. The chubby lady looked at Shen Wei and gave a stiff smile: "Okay, I believe you have already experienced some strange things in the villas of this world. There must be some strange things chasing you, right!"

"So what? I think you should get straight to the point, instead of saying these boring nonsense! If you're really bored, you can pray to God, repent, repent your sins, and let Him redeem your soul, amen..."

The golden-haired nun said sharply.

"Ignorant one, how much do you really know about God? In Their eyes, we are just ants. Would you care about the life or death of ants? Of course, if you want me to get to the point, that's fine with me, then let me tell you the story of this house!"

"This is a mysterious villa, in the gap between the evil space and the real world. Once you enter, it's basically impossible to leave, you can only become food for those terrifying things."

"I remember the first owner of this villa was a couple. Although they were very loving, they were a little short on money, so they had to rent this unbelievably cheap villa."

"But the nightmare also came with it. They often found things in the villa being moved for no reason. At first, they thought there was an outsider hiding in the villa, but they searched the entire villa and still found nothing wrong..."

"And not only that, they often heard inexplicable laughter and strange footsteps in the villa, but when they looked around, there was nothing there. They originally thought it was just their nerves on edge..."

"But the situation became more and more serious. When they slept, they always felt countless shadows watching them, but the couple seemed to be covered by a dream, unable to move at all. The inexplicable fear made them despair, but when they wanted to move out, they found that they couldn't leave this villa area no matter what, which completely broke them down. The two of them thoroughly explored the entire villa, and then they found an old-fashioned video recorder playing in a room they had checked before. What was even more terrifying was that the video recorder was turned on by something..."

"The video tape that was playing was very strange. The protagonists on it were themselves. The content of the video tape was their every move as they stood in front of the recorder, as if an invisible person was secretly filming them and broadcasting it live..."

"What happened later? Get to the point!"

Shen Wei said impatiently.

"Later, the wife's beautiful face was slashed to pieces with a knife by the husband, and the husband was cut in half with a chainsaw by the wife..."
