“It’s over, I’ve encountered a strangeness!”
This was Zeng Shiyuo’s first reaction.
He didn’t think that early in the morning, everyone in this breakfast shop was conspiring to play a prank on him.
Besides, he didn’t know these people, so there was no reason for them to do such a thing.
The only explanation was that he must have encountered a strangeness, otherwise it would have been impossible for everyone else to not see the old man, while only he could.
Although at this moment everyone in the breakfast shop was looking at him, the shop owner included, and the situation was very odd, the shop owner didn’t chase after Zeng Shiyuo to ask for the breakfast money.
...
Zeng Shiyuo had no time to pay them any mind, as his gaze was still firmly fixed on the strange old man.
Having missed his initial aim, the old man slowly turned around, his face still expressionless, his slightly open lips closed, and his outstretched hands lowered back to his sides, still motionless. He stepped off the platform, advancing again towards Zeng Shiyuo.
“Damn!”
Zeng Shiyuo murmured, his heart pounding as he turned and jogged away.
He thought about running back home, but then it occurred to him, what if he brought the wolf into the den?
Perhaps this old strangeness had latched onto him when he came out of the residential area earlier, and going back now might put his family in jeopardy.
With this thought in mind, Zeng Shiyuo turned toward the construction site. Upon reaching the bus stop, his bus, the 702, just happened to arrive. He stepped on, paid the fare, and walked into the bus.
Since it was early, there were plenty of empty seats. He found one by the window and sat down, peering out through the glass.
In his field of view, he could still see the bare-chested old man, who moved neither fast nor slow, maintaining his walking pace in the direction the bus was going.
And just as Zeng Shiyuo saw, people on the street occasionally passed by the old man, but everyone looked right through him, completely unable to see him.
That is to say, the old man was definitely fixated on him, and he was the only one who could see him.
As the bus gradually drove away, the old man’s figure was no longer visible, Zeng Shiyuo came back to himself. After thinking for a moment, he was certain that this strangeness wasn’t any of the neighbors from his hometown that he had killed.
The face was unfamiliar; he didn’t recognize it at all.
…
Underground Space.
Rock glanced at the Stone of Fear in Yan Junze’s hand and noticed that within the semi-transparent stone, the veins were showing signs of very few black elements. The blackness was sparse and did not even traverse the entire vein, let alone the entirety of the stone.
“Have you started?” Rock asked.
Yan Junze nodded, “Yeah, I’ve started.”
Rock broke into laughter, his voice sounding odd, “If that’s all the Fear Value brought about by just that scare, then you’ve got your work cut out for you. You should know that even if you directly placed a corpse next to the Zeng family’s bed, so they’d see it as soon as they woke up, the resulting Fear Value they’d get would be much more than this.”
Yan Junze smiled too but didn’t offer any explanation.
Rock’s expression was amused as he gave Yan Junze a sideways glance for a while before diverting his gaze.
At this moment, he had finished preparing the seventh Tricky Silk thread clump, but he still didn’t continue to manipulate the Tricky Silk to scare the Meng Family.
…
After a while, Zeng Shiyuo, not worrying about whether he would wake up his wife and son, quickly made a phone call to inform them that he had encountered a strangeness on his way out and to be cautious;
especially his wife, Tian Xiaoxia, as she would be going to the market to buy vegetables for the construction site’s canteen shortly after seven o’clock. It was not too late, and when leaving the residential area, there was still a chance she might run into the strange old man.
The mother and son were also scared out of their wits and asked Zeng Shiyuo if it was the family that they had killed coming back as a strangeness to get them.
Zeng Shiyuo said it wasn’t, and it was very likely a strangeness he had encountered by chance.
After giving his advice and hanging up the phone, his heart was still tumultuous. Encountering a strangeness early in the morning gave him a sense of horror that he believed would stick with him for the rest of the day, maybe even for the next few days.
Fifty minutes later, Zeng Shiyuo arrived at the construction site and quickly changed into his security guard uniform.
The place he worked was the construction site of a commercial plaza, and as a security guard, Zeng Shiyuo was stationed at gate number 4 which led into the construction site.
Normally, work started around 8 a.m., with overnight work on occasions to meet deadlines.
It was not yet time for the work to begin; while Zeng Shiyuo was changing into his security uniform, one of his colleagues, a man in his fifties, went to buy breakfast.
By the time Zeng Shiyuo came out in his uniform, his colleague was returning with two bowls of freshly made noodles.
“You haven’t had breakfast, right? I bought an extra bowl.”
Zeng Shiyuo paused for a moment, then shook his head, “I haven’t.”
The dreadful experience he had had eating breakfast was not something he wanted to remember.
The colleague placed disposable bowls and chopsticks in front of him, “Eat up before it gets cold.”
Still haunted by the breakfast incident, Zeng Shiyuo didn’t say anything but picked up the chopsticks. They sat opposite each other, the colleague facing the door while Zeng Shiyuo had his back to it.
“I need to go out around ten o’clock; watch the shift for me,” said the colleague after they had been eating for a while.
“Sure,” Zeng Shiyuo nodded, distracted even as he ate his noodles.

Just then, as he took a sip of soup, he glanced back towards the door of the security room as if on edge.
Instantly, he stiffened. From his vantage point, he could see a long-haired woman walking step by step toward them down the street.
