Oh no, my deskmate is a yandere!

Timing, timing, timing.

When will it finally be available?!

Yang An tugged hard on the chain in his hand, making a clanging sound.

In this pitch-black world, only the sound of breathing can prove one's existence.

He could feel his mental state deteriorating rapidly.

Heading towards that seemingly destined low point.

An inevitable collapse.

If this continues, in less than two months, no, maybe even less than a month.

I could be completely alienated and become Jiang Nianxi's spiritual slave.

In a true sense, I cannot live without it.

He fears every dark place, even at home.

He needs to rely on women, otherwise the claustrophobia alone would be enough to drive him insane.

This dependency is irreversible.

No matter what happens in the end, I have to escape this month.

What awaits Yang An in the future is only a bottomless abyss.

Yang An gritted his teeth until he felt a slight pain, then slowly relaxed.

Wait a little longer, wait a little longer...

……

Five days after the two men left, a black car pulled up in front of the house.

"...This is it."

The man in the black tracksuit glanced at the navigation, then at the simple houses outside the window, and turned to signal to the driver.

The car door opened, and two more accomplices stepped out besides him.

"Brother Bei, is the person they're looking for really here?"

One of the thinner young men shivered, looking around; it was a desolate place no matter how you looked at it.

It's really strange that people still live here.

"If you tell us to search, we'll search. We don't need to consider anything else."

The man called Brother Bei raised his chin.

The remaining accomplices then split up and went in two different directions.

He stayed behind and cautiously entered the house.

This time slot was perfectly timed.

After several days of scouting, they finally seized the opportunity when the woman in the house went to the city.

"I'll say it again, don't break anything, don't mess anything up! Try not to leave any footprints, and if you do, cover them up!"

There's no need to worry about the tire tracks.

Although the area is desolate, there are still vehicles passing through this road.

Not surprising.

What we really need to worry about is the soft soil around us.

It had just rained not long ago, so it's easy to leave deep footprints.

"Got it, boss!"

"Okay, Brother Bei!"

Both ends responded separately.

Bei Ge himself carefully stepped towards the house.

The door was made of iron and had a lock on it.

With a gentle pull, a metallic clanging sound immediately rang out.

Time is running out.

It took almost an hour to drive here.

He only drove the car after making sure the woman had entered the city.

The woman's round trips were relatively short; she would usually stay in the city for only one or two hours before returning.

The time left for them is extremely limited.

"..."

If there's a lock, then things become a bit tricky.

However, it doesn't affect getting in.

As for how exactly to get in, those who know, know.

……

Half an hour has passed.

"Boss, there's just a wasteland behind us, nothing there at all. Beyond that is a forest."

One of the henchmen ran over, panting, bending over to wipe the sweat from his face.

"The woods were dark and the trees were so dense that it looked like no one had ever been there."

"..."

Bei Ge then slowly locked the door that had been opened, making sure not to step on the threshold before leaving.

"Nothing at all?"

"That's right, boss."

"Go and clean up your footprints first."

"Okay."

After hearing this, the younger brother immediately ran to the trunk of the car and picked up a shovel.

A short while later, the other brother also returned.

"Or is there nothing at all?"

Brother Bei leaned against the car door, looking at the simple house in front of him, and smoked a cigarette.

The younger brother shook his head and pointed in the direction he had just come from.

"That area is also wasteland, with a lot of weeds that are almost as tall as your calves. We can't go any further."

"Um?"

"There's a swamp behind here. If you step in, you'll be discovered, and there are lots of bugs."

"..."

"However... I think I vaguely heard some strange noises."

Brother Bei was about to put a cigarette in his mouth when he heard this and stopped.

"What's that strange sound?"

The younger brother scratched his head, looking rather confused: "I can't quite explain it... It sounds a bit like birdsong, coming in bursts, and a bit like a frog."

"..."

"Brother Bei, I feel like it looks a bit like an animal from the swamp, but I didn't grow up in the countryside and I don't know what it is."

"...Never mind, you go clean up the footprints too."

"Okay, Brother Bei."

Once all traces were covered up, the group got into the car.

Brother Bei opened the window, his brows furrowed into a tight knot.

He stubbed out his cigarette, put the ashes and cigarette in a plastic bag, and threw it into the small trash can on the car.

It’s weird.

Based on the speculation, it seems there's nowhere else to hide people besides here.

Jiang Nianxi, this woman is undoubtedly the prime suspect.

Apart from her, Mr. Yang has almost no enemies in his social circle.

and……

The elderly people who rented the house were taken in by their children for about a month before moving to other cities.

It's difficult to investigate.

Strange sound.

"..."

He suddenly asked, "Zhang Zi, where did you hear that voice?"

The second younger brother in the back row was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, it's in the area behind, near the swamp."

He thought back for a few seconds.

"It's sometimes near, sometimes far, I'm not sure, it must be coming from somewhere on the ground, there's a lot of grass, oh my god, it's all so messy I can't tell the difference..."

"...Never mind, that person will be back soon. Let's go back and report to our superiors first."

Brother Bei sighed, leaned back in his seat, and stared at the pendant on the car ceiling.

Fortunately, I managed to take a few photos.

It can't be said that they left empty-handed.

As soon as he finished speaking, the driver stepped on the gas.

……

"These property management companies are really going too far lately."

Jiang Nianxi looked at the receipt in her hand, a hint of melancholy flashing in her eyes.

The recent data for novels isn't very good, and royalties have also dropped somewhat.

If it weren't for the need to conceal their whereabouts, these properties would be incredibly troublesome.

Suddenly, a black sedan drove up from a distance on the muddy road.

She looked up and saw the car had already come up beside her and passed by.

"..."

……

"Help! Help me!"

The sound of a car engine roared from above, then it stopped.

This is not a journey undertaken by one person alone.

These are the footsteps of many people.

Yang An's pupils contracted sharply, and he struggled to get out of bed.

This is...this is...

Is someone from outside here?

But he remembered that Jiang Nianxi had only gone out a short while ago.

Hoping for a lucky break, he shouted loudly.

It was as if he was shouting out all the air from his lungs.

Every time she speaks out, it's heartbreaking enough.

the strange thing is.

No matter how hard Yang An shouted.
