As if to prove the woman's words, the police sirens outside grew louder one after another, and there was also movement in the hallway.
"It's fake, all fake. This is the Nightmare World. Otherwise, why would your call still come through after I cut the phone line?" Yang Xiao glared at the fallen phone line, his face twisted ferociously.

Yang Xiao didn't dare to move, even suppressing his breath to a whisper, until after half a minute, the menacing ringtone finally quieted down.


All around was deathly silent, as if even the sound of wind and rain outside the window had come to a halt, so quiet that Yang Xiao could hear his own heartbeat, so quiet that panic set in his heart.
