I Heard That I'll Be Super Fierce After My Death 12 Thinking Too Clearly Leads To Terror

After some time.

The lift trembled a little and stopped once again.

Lin Wu casually glanced at the floor. Right now, it was the 9th floor; most probably, a resident of the 9th floor wanted to head up.

How rare.

During these years, even neighbors on the same floor were almost like strangers. There was no need to mention anything about neighbors on different floors. Usually, the residence would only be going to the 1st floor if they took the lift. It was very rare for them to go to the higher floors.

"Mn?"

All of a sudden, Lin Wu started slightly as he glanced carefully at the lift panel. He even suspected whether his eyes were dazzled.

Earlier...he seemed to have seen that the 9th floor's b.u.t.ton lit up.

After he and Li Luyao entered the lift, they had only pressed the 12th floor. Why would the b.u.t.ton to the 9th floor be lit up?

Maybe...he had seen it wrongly.

Lin Wu shook his head slightly. He could only feel like it was a misperception on his part.

 "Ding!"

The sound rang out, and the lift's door to the 9th floor slowly opened.

However, the s.p.a.ce outside the lift was completely empty. There was no one here at all.

Faintly, he could even hear the sounds of a piano drifting over from an unknown location. The piano sounds were like flowing water, pouring down in torrents. The melody was also filled with a trace of oppressiveness.

"Eh?"

Lin Wu glanced at the other lift on this floor.

For this building, there were two lifts that would stop on every floor.

Usually, when people pressed the b.u.t.ton, the two lifts would head up together. They would then take whichever lift that arrived first.

Earlier, both lifts had stopped on the 4th floor, but they hadn't seen anyone waiting.

And now, the other lift showed that it was still stopped on the 4th floor. This meant that…

There was someone on the 4th floor who had pressed the lift but didn't use it.

The other lift in the building that was operating was the lift he and Li Luyao were in.

A thought suddenly appeared in Lin Wu's heart--

What if his eyes weren't dazzled?

What if the 9th floor b.u.t.ton inside the lift he was in was really lit up earlier?

The majority of people wouldn't go to the higher floors.

The majority of people also wouldn't only wait for one lift.

The majority of people wouldn't disappear once the lift was on their floor.

But things would be normal if he a.s.sumed things like this…

A person on the 4th floor had pressed the b.u.t.tons of the lifts, making the lifts stop on that floor. Since their lift had stopped first, that person had entered and pressed the 9th floor's b.u.t.ton, yet the two of them hadn't noticed it.

At this moment, maybe that 'person' had already exited the lift. Or maybe, 'it' was still in the lift with them.

Only that...he and Li Luyao weren't able to see this person.

"…"

After Lin Wu obtained the conclusion, he felt a chill in his heart. Thinking too clearly would really lead to terror.

Was he crazy? Maybe nothing was going on, why was he scaring himself?

"What's wrong?" Li Luyao glanced at him. Although her chest wasn't big, she didn't really have much brains*.

"Cough, nothing." Lin Wu coughed. He intentionally lowered his voice. "I'm thinking whether it would be successful if I kiss you in the lift."

If there really was an invisible existence in the lift with them now, what would it do when it saw this scene?

Yet, Li Luyao was so frightened that she took half-step back. Her hands covered her chest as she weakly spoke, "You...didn't you say that you are willing to give me time to familiarize myself with you?"

"I'm only joking, there's a monitoring cam in the lift anyway." Lin Wu laughed.

"Oh."

Only now did Li Luyao heave a sigh of relief. She glanced at the lift's doors again and was puzzled. "Strange, why didn't the doors close?"

Lin Wu started slightly. He also realized this, and his heart involuntarily chilled.

According to logic, after the lift stopped for a while on a floor, the doors of the lift should have automatically closed. Why was it still open?

Unless...There was something holding the lift's doors, causing them to be unable to close automatically?

But there was nothing at the lift's doors at all.

Lin Wu frowned slightly. He stretched out his hand to press the b.u.t.ton to close the doors.

However, the lift merely shook a bit; there was no other reaction.

Lin Wu's complexion turned somewhat pale.

Unable to close?

It couldn't be...was there really something blocking the lift's doors?

"What's the matter? Could it be that there's a malfunction?" Li Luyao also saw this scene. She couldn't help but bend her waist and stretch her hand to press the b.u.t.ton to close the doors.

At this moment, the lift's doors slowly closed.

"It closes?"

Lin Wu involuntarily started. After that, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Alright then.

It seemed like it was just his misperception?

But if it wasn't a misperception, that meant that…

The invisible existence had merely left the lift's entrance.

It also meant that there was a problem with the 9th floor.

As the doors slowly closed, the indistinct piano sounds from the 9th floor could no longer be heard.

It was unknown why, maybe it was a psychological reason, but Lin Wu faintly felt that the atmosphere in the lift was a little tense. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold Li Luyao's dainty hand.

Li Luyao started slightly. She bit her lips, but she didn't shake his hand free.

The lift rapidly proceeded upward and soon arrived on the 12th floor.

After the lift's doors opened and the two of them walked out from the lift, only then did Lin Wu heavily heave a sigh of relief. Nothing happened there. As expected, it was just a misperception on his part.

"Lin Wu…"

Li Luyao suddenly spoke, "Didn't you say to visit your house using an ident.i.ty of a friend? Should I meet your parents like this?"

Only then did Lin Wu realize that he was still holding on to Li Luyao's hand.

"Oh, I was a little nervous earlier." Lin Wu embarra.s.sedly laughed. He then released her hand, but he didn't feel guilty. In any case, she would be his wife sooner or later. What was the matter with holding hands?

Lin Wu walked to unit number 1201 and pressed the doorbell.

Very soon, the security door opened.

The person who opened the door was Mother Lin.

Lin Mu was currently wearing an ap.r.o.n. She had a wiping cloth on her hand and seemed to be doing housework. The moment the door opened, when she saw Lin Wu and Li Luyao, she couldn't help but start. After that, that wrinkled face filled with the traces of age broke out into a smile.

"Mom, I brought my friend back as a guest. Have you made lunch yet?"

Lin Wu lazily asked and led Li Luyao into the house.

"This is?" Mother Lin smiled as she looked at Li Luyao, having guessed in her heart.

While facing her future mother-in-law, although Li Luyao felt a little nervous, she still politely said, "Hi aunty, I'm Lin Wu's friend. My name is Li Luyao, you can just call me Luyao."

Mother Lin's smile grew even wider. She smiled pa.s.sionately. "Aiya, it's really you? Yesterday, I heard that la.s.s He Bi saying that she introduced a blind date to Lin Wu. I didn't expect you to be even more beautiful than what she said."

"Aunty, you are praising me too much." Li Luyao pa.s.sed the two bags in her hands to Mother Lin as she smiled. "These are the gifts for you and uncle since I'm meeting you both for the first time. If you cannot use it, it's fine as well. Just treat it as a token of my kind intentions."

"It's fine that you just come, why must you still bring gifts?"

Although Mother Lin said that, she still accepted the gifts with a smile. After that, she glared at Lin Wu. "Smelly brat, why are you standing here in a daze? Quickly go and pour water for her."

"She isn't your daughter-in-law yet, why are you so pa.s.sionate…" Lin Wu unhappily mumbled. However, the fear instilled in him since young by his mother still made him obediently go to pour water.

He intentionally mumbled for Li Luyao to hear his words, wanting to tease her. Li Luyao naturally heard everything clearly, and she involuntarily blushed.

Mother Lin saw her expression while feeling startled in her heart. However, her smile grew even more radiant. She didn't expect this little fellow to actually have some capabilities.

"Come come, quickly enter. There's no need to change to slippers."
