Day of Imprisonment

Zhou Di breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt much safer after calling the police.

But he still felt a little nervous, and even more confused.

"Why would a killer suddenly appear? And one who attacks without saying a word after seeing someone."

"What's even more unbelievable is that I've been killed... twice. Each time, I can go back to a time before. This is like some kind of loop. This is a bit supernatural."

Zhou Di muttered.

He looked at the time.

"The first time I was killed, it was almost dawn. The killer must have reached this floor and encountered Brother Jia, so the dog barked. The killer probably killed Brother Jia, then killed the dog, and then I happened to open the door and run into him, so he killed me."

"And the second time, I was prepared and went downstairs an hour early. As a result, I ran into the killer in the elevator. At that time, he already had blood on him, which means the killing had already begun. He's in this building."

"Wait a minute!"

Zhou Di took a few deep breaths.

"Why is there a killer? Also, is the other party a single person or a gang? That is to say, even if I run out now, I might encounter him, or his accomplices."

Thinking of this, Zhou Di hurriedly walked to the door and locked it.

This made him feel a little more at ease.

However, he was still holding the baseball bat, and would occasionally get up, walk to the door, and hold his breath to listen to the movements outside.

And sure enough, after a while, there were footsteps.

Very light, if he wasn't close to the door, he probably wouldn't be able to hear it.

It's not even five in the morning yet, and someone is sneaking around in the corridor. This is obviously a problem.

Zhou Di gripped the wooden stick tightly.

There's nothing he can do now. He's already called the police. He just hopes that the police can send someone over as soon as possible. Regardless of whether they can catch the killer, at least it can form a deterrent. Conservatively speaking, scaring the other party away shouldn't be a problem.

So, Zhou Di could only wait anxiously. This process was a bit thrilling, making people worried.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to hear some faint screams inside the building.

But it was more like an illusion in a trance.

Finally, after waiting anxiously for more than ten minutes, the phone rang suddenly.

This startled Zhou Di. He looked at the number and quickly answered it.

The other party was the police officer on duty, saying that he had arrived at the place and was going upstairs. Zhou Di immediately made it clear the floor and room number.

"Alright, we'll go up and take a look. Have you found anything suspicious during this time?"

"I've been staying in the room, I haven't gone out," Zhou Di said truthfully.

Hanging up the phone, Zhou Di breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that the police are here.

The police officer who called just now said that he had arrived on the first floor, and it would only take a few minutes to take the elevator up.

However, after waiting and waiting, no one knocked on the door after several minutes, and there was no other movement in the corridor.

Strange!

Even if they took the stairs, they should have come up.

Zhou Di felt something was wrong, and he immediately found the number just now and dialed it back.

It went through, but no one answered.

Suddenly, the unease in his heart reappeared, and it was several times stronger than before.

"Could something have happened?" Zhou Di dialed again.

This time, after ringing more than a dozen times, it was connected.

Zhou Di was immediately refreshed.

"Hello, hello, officer, why haven't you come up yet? Where are you now?"

There was no response from the other end of the phone.

That is, someone answered, but didn't speak.

"Officer?" Zhou Di called out again.

On the other end of the phone, he could hear breathing, heavy breathing. Someone must be holding their mouth to the microphone.

Silence.

Zhou Di's heart sank in this eerie silence.

He was 100% sure that something had happened.

The police officers who came here must have had an accident, and it was possible that the killer attacked them. But the question is, how did the killer do it? And normally speaking, shouldn't those criminals be afraid when they see the police? How could they dare to attack?

The phone was still connected, and he could vaguely hear some noises, but it was difficult to tell what they were.

Zhou Di's anxiety increased. At this time, he really didn't know what to do.

The other party didn't say a word, and he didn't dare to speak anymore. They remained silent for about a minute. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Almost at the same time, a voice sounded on the phone.

"Open the door!"

Zhou Di exploded at this moment. He was so frightened that he even threw the phone aside.

Knock knock knock ~

The knocking continued.

Not fast or slow, but Zhou Di could be sure that the person knocking on the door was definitely not the previous police officer.

It must be the killer.

Then he definitely can't open the door.

But Zhou Di didn't dare to make a sound either. At this moment, he was like he was frozen, not daring to make any noise, but his eyes were fixed on the door.

"With the security door, if I don't open it, the people outside can't come in."

Zhou Di forcibly cheered himself up.

The knocking sounded for a while, and suddenly the person outside the door stopped knocking. Just when Zhou Di had just breathed a sigh of relief, something even more explosive made his hair stand on end.

There was the sound of a key inserting into the lock, and then the lock was actually turned.

"Damn, does he have a key? Or, can the other party pick locks?"

At that moment, Zhou Di's heart sank to the bottom, a chilling sensation piercing his bones.

But, fortunately, he had locked the door beforehand.

This way, even if the person outside had a key, they wouldn't be able to open the door.

Sure enough, after a few twists, the person outside tried to pull the door, but still couldn't open it.

The other party tried several times, using more and more force, creating a loud noise.

Zhou Di could only pray that the door was sturdy enough, and even more so, hope that the other party couldn't open it and would leave quickly, so he still didn't dare to make any noise.

From next door, a dog's barking was heard.

Most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ At ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ Book ⊥ ⊥ Bar ⊥ ⊥ First ⊥ Post!

Obviously, the unusual noise had startled the neighbor's dog.

Immediately following, the sound of the next door opening was heard.

No need to ask, it was the neighbor, Brother Jia, who heard the dog barking and the commotion outside, wanting to come out and investigate.

"Crap!"

Realizing this, Zhou Di hurriedly rushed to the door and shouted, "Brother Jia, don't come out, there's a murderer outside!"

"Huh? Little Zhou, what are you shouting about? What time is it? Why is there such a commotion?" Brother Jia's voice came from outside the door, obviously, he had already come out.

Zhou Di could only shout, telling the other party to go back.

But just as he shouted a sentence, he heard a scream outside, the dog's barking became more urgent, but after a few seconds, the dog's barking also disappeared.

Zhou Di's hand gripped the doorknob, wanting to rush out several times, but ultimately didn't muster the courage.

Outside, everything was quiet, but this silence was suffocating.

Zhou Di could be certain that the neighbor, Brother Jia, was dead, he could even imagine how the murderer was killing people one knife at a time, and then how easily he cut off the dog's head.

Opening the door now would be useless.

"That's right, the phone, continue to call the police."

Zhou Di hurriedly went to pick up the phone.

But just as he turned around to pick up the phone that had fallen on the ground, he happened to see a figure趴 on the glass of the window over there, staring at him.

Zhou Di's breathing stagnated, he realized that one side of the apartment's windows faced the hallway.

However, the window was locked. It shouldn't be...

Crack ~

The sound of glass shattering rang out, and the murderer wearing a raincoat directly flipped in from the window, grabbing a blood-stained sharp knife, and rushed towards Zhou Di.

Awakened again, Zhou Di felt more anger and annoyance than fear.

He skillfully unplugged the computer power cord and walked to the window, looking outside.

"Breaking in through the window, huh? If I had known, I should have installed burglar bars in this place."

Saying this now was obviously too late.

Having been stabbed to death three times in a row by the same murderer, after the fear reached a critical value, what arose now was frustration and anger.

"I just don't believe it."

Anger can suppress fear.

Just like Zhou Di now, in addition to escaping, he actually began to ponder how to retaliate.

After all, having been killed three times, Zhou Di could be said to be the person in this building who knew the most about that murderer.

After careful recollection, he discovered that the murderer was tall, at least half a head taller than him.

"I'm one meter seventy-five, that guy is at least one meter eighty-five, and he has immense strength."

The last time the other party broke in through the window, Zhou Di resisted, he used a baseball bat and smashed it over fiercely, considering it a desperate act.

But the other party was able to grab the bat in one go, and then directly snatch it away.

The other party used one hand, while he used both hands, yet he couldn't pull it back.

In Zhou Di's view, this murderer possessed extraordinary physical qualities, and was also calm, cunning, and most importantly, ruthless.

"The police officers who came last time must have been killed by the other party. Police officers are trained, and they don't go on duty alone, at least two or three people. If they can be killed by this murderer under these circumstances, it can only mean that this guy is not someone ordinary people can deal with."

After realizing this, the thought of counterattacking disappeared.

The same old saying, surviving is the most important thing.

But Zhou Di could be sure that now, the murderer was already in this building, and any rash actions would easily make him the other party's target.

The previous experiences had already verified this point.

He couldn't easily go out, it seemed that he could only call the police.

But if he called the police, what would he say?

If he didn't make it sound serious, the result would be that a few police officers would still be killed.

But if he exaggerated the situation too much, the other party might not believe it.

But at least he could try.

Zhou Di thought for a while, he called the police again, this time he described the situation as ten times more serious.

The police station attached great importance to it, but also asked many tricky questions, Zhou Di could only make up stories, he knew that the other party suspected the truth of the matter, but he didn't care.

As long as he could get the other party to dispatch more police force, that would be enough.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Di thought repeatedly, feeling that this was still not safe.

He knew that he didn't have outstanding wisdom, and in terms of force, he was just the standard of a normal person, so if he wanted to break the situation, he could only rely on external forces.

Exaggeratedly calling the police was just one thing, he still needed to find another way to break the situation.

In the room, the smell of the computer host burning was still lingering.

Zhou Di thought for a while, his eyes lit up, and he finally thought of a method of creating miracles with great force.

He walked to the table, opened the drawer, and took out a lighter.
