Soon,the beeping sound ended,and instead,there was a prompt that the call wasn't answered.
I closed my phone and let out a long sigh.Although I didn't understand the situation now,I still had to find the person who ordered the food in the funeral parlor.
Maybe this person had fainted for some reason or couldn't answer the phone for other reasons.If I left,this person might really be in danger of losing their life.
Whether it was a prank or for some other reason,human life is of utmost importance,and I couldn't leave no matter what.
With this thought in mind,I made up my mind to start searching for the person who ordered the food in the funeral parlor.
I suddenly remembered something and took out my phone again to check the name of the person who ordered the food:Li Yunwen.
Recalling the story the restaurant owner told me before,my heart skipped a beat.Could it be that...
I urgently sent a message to the restaurant owner,asking if there was a man named Li Yunwen among the people who died of food poisoning in the funeral parlor before.
Perhaps because the restaurant owner didn't have much to do at night,he quickly replied to my message.
Restaurant Owner:There was indeed one.Don't tell me the person who ordered the food is named Li Yunwen.
Looking at the cold words on the phone screen,I instantly felt terrified.Cold sweat broke out,and big beads of sweat rolled down from my forehead and landed on the ground with a ticking sound.
Gulp.
I swallowed hard and,with trembling fingers,typed an"um".
The restaurant owner on the other side was silent for a full minute and then typed two words.
Run!
Run?
My heart sank,and I had the intention of turning around and running.But then I thought that maybe this was just someone with the same name,so I dialed the number of the person who ordered the food again.
As expected,the faint vibration of the phone sounded.I listened carefully and quickly determined that the sound was coming from one of the three rooms at the end.
While dialing the phone,I came to the door of the room closest to me.
Whoosh!
At that moment,it suddenly started pouring rain outside.The suddenness of the rain made my already nervous mood reach its peak.
Dong dong dong.
I could clearly hear my heart pounding violently.In all my years of life,I had never been so nervous.
I reached out and pushed the door open.With a creak,the door opened,and the dimly lit room came into view.And just then.
Boom!
A thunderclap flashed by,and the situation in the room was instantly illuminated by the lightning.
In the room,there were two paper dolls,a man and a woman,quietly leaning against the wall.Their pair of black paper eyes stared into mine,and their expressionless faces seemed to be smiling eerily at the moment.
A wreath was placed between the paper dolls,with a large Chinese character for"death"written on it.
Bang!
The dilapidated window was blown open by the strong wind and crashed against the door with a loud noise.
Whoosh!
Under the blow of the strong wind,something suddenly fell down beside the door frame.The paper doll riding a paper ox seen to have a creepy smile on its face as it fell to the ground and starred into my eyes
I was instantly so scared that I let out a scream.Without hesitation,I turned around and ran out of the room.When I looked towards the exit while leaving the room,I saw several crows watching me at the door.
The pitch-black eyes exuded a sense of eeriness.No,it should be said that the entire funeral parlor was now exuding an eerie atmosphere.
I was so scared that I panicked and actually pushed the door open and entered the second room.
