"Zhuang Wenjing?"
As Yan Junze's voice rang out again, the fragments of memory fueled by obsession quickly disappeared without a trace. Zhuang Wenjing, sitting in a cardboard box, was startled; she hastily stuffed the remaining severed finger into her mouth, ignoring Yan Junze's call.
Crouching, she chewed on the finger in her mouth while shrinking further into the box. At that moment, her mind was consumed by a single sensation—hunger.
Thump! Thump!
Two more sounds came from within.
Yan Junze paused, staring at the cardboard box.
His thoughts were clear now, no longer muddled. Recalling the arm that Zhuang Wenjing had extended from the box, he noted that its skin was cracked in many places, almost none of it intact.
The black nails on those five fingers didn't seem to be what they looked like in life, but had grown out after death due to the strong obsession, transforming into something grotesque.
