Chapter 18: I Managed to Escape from the Nightmare (1)
“Brother…” The first second I got my consciousness back, I heard someone calling me that.
“Brother…” When I heard that voice the second time, I got up right away and cried in panic,
“What the hell is this!!!”
“Huh!” …, what happened?
I was, at home?
I had been dreaming before?
But, the dream felt so real… The short intimacy between me and Lian Bing, the feeling of suffocation, the smell of the thick blood, the body, the arms, the heads which gradually turned cold… all those things were just my dream?
I covered my forehead with while feeling completely muddleheaded. The things I had been through in my dream became vaguer and vaguer… Gradually, what had happened in my dream was disappearing in my memory.
At this time, Ke Ling showed up in front of my eyes. She waved her hand and said with a worried look on her face,
“Brother? What’s wrong? Did you have a bad dream?”
My back was wet through, which made me feel quite uncomfortable because my pajama was sticking to my body.
Having squeezed out a smile, I touched Ke Ling’s head and pretended to speak as if nothing had happened,
“I’m fine. I’m fine.”
“Eh, anyway, just get up now~ Mom has already made the breakfast for us!”
“Fine, I see. I’ll get up right away.”
“I’ll go down first. Don’t you fall asleep again!”
“I won’t.” After Ke Ling had left my room, I closed my eyes again. That was not for going back to sleep again but remembering my precious dream.
The details all went blurry, but I could still recall the whole story.
Meanwhile, the feeling of losing my memories also faded away. After I had made sure that there was still part of my dream being left in my memory, I got up at once to take a look at my phone.
Right now it was… Six thirty six.
That was right, last time I had checked on my phone, I saw the exactly same number.
Puff, so I had only had a dream.
And right now, I had already come back home.
I just didn’t know why I would have that kind of a dream. Was it because I had too many pressures lately?
However, I felt relieved that it had been just a dream and I was staying in my home instead of that weird manor.
Come to think of it, how was it possible for a place like that to exist in this world? And now when I looked back, I finally found that Lian Bing, Xue Qing and Yu Hui had all showed up too abruptly.
Ha… It didn’t matter anyway.
After all, dreams were just dreams. I was in my home right now. That was right… “This is not the manor…” The moment I spitted those words out, I had a strong sense of deja vu. Then the feeling of strangeness made me knit my eyebrows.
It seemed that I had… said those words before.
Wait, ‘last time’ when I woke up, I seemed to have had a dream of going to work too… And at that time, how had I known that my workplace had been a manor?
In other words, the dream I had had last time was exactly like the one I had had this time. But I had simply forgotten about the last one.
So, where did this dream start?
Had I been having the same dream the whole time?
I couldn’t have a clear idea… This whole thing was so confusing. I should go to wash my face first.
On my way to the bathroom, I kept thinking about what had happened in my dream.
If those dreams were actually the prediction of the future, should I make different choices?
But the prophetic dream sounded too unconvincing… Wait!
If my dreams were so real that I couldn’t tell them apart from the reality… then how would I know that I wasn’t having a dream right now?
When I had woken up in the manor, I had also thought that I had been having a dream.
As I was pondering that, I suddenly smelled something strange. Right after that, everything in front of my eyes went black. Then I looked around to see what had happened immediately.
I found that I was actually staying in a completely dark place instead of the bathroom.
This place was extremely narrow and damp as if it had been through the collapse. I felt my body falling down gradually. Then my feet were bathed into some kind of sticky liquid like I had got stuck in the swamp… I was about to be swallowed.
Suddenly I felt terribly scared. Then I struggled like crazy with my hands reaching to the above desperately, trying to get rid of the swamp which kept sucking me in.
However, all the things I had done were meaningless. I was still falling while my body parts which had already been swallowed became totally dead.
Next, my head was also immersed into that swamp and I only had one hand left at the outside.
I tried my best to stretch out my hand, even if I felt a dislocation of my arms.
Then I touched something really soft.
I was awakened all of a sudden.
Surprisingly, I opened my eyes ‘once again’.
To be honest, I couldn’t even tell if I was opening or closing my eyes. This time, I found myself lying on the bed when I woke up.
It was so hot. My body felt super hot as if it had burned from the inside.
The strange smell was still there, but it became much stronger than before.
This was… the fragrance? No, there was also some other scent which was hard to describe mixing in the smell. And I felt myself about to lose control due to the smell.
It was so hard to take… like I was going to explode.
“Hmm…”
“Alas! Jun Cheng, you are awake? I’m sorry, it must be my violent movements that wake you up. I’m so sorry about that, ha ha…”
The naked girl showed up in my twisted view.
Her hair was wet by her sweats, her face was covered with redness and her eyes were filled with joyful expression. Right now, the girl was moving her body up and down.
“Classmate, Lan Hu…” Before I could finish my sentence, she already put her index finger on my lips.
“Don’t ever call me classmate again. We are more than that right now. Ho ho ho…” What… was she doing now?
As the sense of touch from all parts of my body rushing to my brain, I also got the delighted and comfortable feeling at the same time.
I was doing that kind of thing… with her?
Eh… what was the situation now… I checked on my surroundings confusedly. I was in a narrow room. Well, I meant, the same room I had been staying when I had been in the manor.
I came back to this place again… That was so strange. So I had just had a dream of waking up in my home?
Then, why hadn’t I been killed by Lian Bing? Instead, I was doing some unspeakable things with Lan Hua here… What on earth had happened…
“Luckily I have come here in time. Otherwise, you will die in the hands of that psycho lady.”
“What…”
She looked away with a despised look in her eyes. My eyes followed hers to the floor beside us.
That was… Lian Bing’s dead body.
Her dead body on the floor already seemed a bit wizened. There was an obvious bullet hole on the back of her head which meant she had been shot through the head.
So, that loud sound I had heard before I had fainted out had been a gun shot?
After that, Lan Hua had killed Lian Bing?
“But it doesn’t matter anymore~ Jun Cheng, I have already handled all the things that troubled you. You won’t need to worry about anything now~”
“What…”
“This place is so convenient~ Normal people couldn’t come to the inside and only qualified ones like us could be free to get in and out… Ho ho ho… this is our sweet home. No one would be able to disturb us anymore…”
“What are you talking about…” Was she crazy?
Or, I was actually the one who had gone crazy.
“And, and, come take a look.” She showed a complacent look as if she was about to display the trophies to her master.
Then Lan Hua brought the laptop next to her and played the video for me.
The moment I saw what was playing in the screen, I could even feel my pupils expanding.
In a dark room, my sisters were having sex with some men I didn’t know.
