A dreamless night.

"Beep beep beep!"

The alarm clock rang at 7:, and the sharp sound was like a needle piercing my brain.

Yin Li reached out from under the quilt and stopped it.

After only sleeping for 4 hours, Yin Li's brain was unable to function at the moment. He lay on the bed and wanted to take another nap, but his body had already been woken up by the alarm clock.

He heard again the faint sound of a heavy door closing and the "tapping" sound of high heels walking upstairs.

Yin Li sat on the bed and meditated for a while, and finally felt a little more energetic.

He got out of bed and opened the curtains. The sunlight shone through the bedroom window, illuminating the room and sweeping away the gloom of yesterday.

But the knock on the door last night still made him feel something was wrong.

Yin Li didn't think it was an illusion.

He tidied himself up and then opened the door to his apartment.

The floor outside the door was spotless.

There was still no movement at the neighbor's door.

Nothing unusual.

……

"Someone knocked on your apartment door in the middle of the night? This is too dangerous. There is no shortage of criminals in the metropolis. I suggest you go home." Cliff said worriedly.

Yin Li and Cliff were sitting in the cafeteria of Duda University.

There were unexpectedly a lot of people in the cafeteria today.

Yin Li looked at the crowd in the cafeteria and said, "Maybe I heard it wrong. Don't you even doubt it?"

"You're too weak. Someone like you could easily get into danger. It's not a bad thing to be a little more cautious."

"I know. But what if he's a vicious guy? I don't want to involve my parents."

Yin Li believed that she could handle this matter.

The metropolis is not safe either. If Yin Li tells her parents everything that happens, they will be worried all day long.

"Okay, then you be careful." Cliff didn't persuade her any more. Yin Li was an adult after all.

"That Wayne is still on patrol today?"

"Inspection? Duda isn't his property." Cliff smiled. "But it's a bit strange. How could that idle rich young man be at Duda for two days?"

Look at these female students who are trying hard to win his favor.

Cliff thought about it for a moment and said nonchalantly, "Maybe he's attracted to a female student at Metropolitan University."

Yin Li nodded and picked up the pasta on the plate.

"But..." Cliff paused, "Duda has had some issues recently. Three sophomore girls disappeared a while ago. Two of them have been found, but the whereabouts of the other one is still unknown."

Cliff stopped eating and looked at Yin Li.

Yin Li also stopped and waited for him to continue, "What's wrong?"

"The girl had long, cascading black hair and a pair of black eyes. She was introverted and well-behaved. She was of Asian descent and very cute. Many students pursued her."

"How do you know this?"

Cliff said helplessly, "It's gone viral on the school forum. I'll give you the website, you should pay attention to the school forum."

"Oh."

"The three missing were roommates. It was said that they were kidnapped when they returned to the dormitory at night. Three days after her disappearance, only two of her roommates returned unharmed. They claimed that she did not go out with them that day. They did not seem to be lying, but there were witnesses who saw the three of them go out together that day. After the police questioned them without any results, they released the two roommates. The specific details are unknown."

The whole thing is full of doubts.

Yin Li went to the school forum and took a look.

Most of them are students' speculations, and there are all kinds of opinions.

There were more and more witnesses to the incident, and everyone spoke as if it were true.

There is a mixture of true and false information in it.

Yin Li left the forum.

The voices of several girls sitting in the back suddenly became louder.

"Look, Bruce Wayne!"

"Why is he eating in the cafeteria?"

"Let's go over and take a look!"

The crowd became agitated.

Cliff also curiously stuck his head out to watch, but within seconds the place was completely surrounded and he couldn't see anything.

He retracted his head and sighed, "As expected of Gotham's sweetheart."

"This is a metropolis." Yin Li said lightly. He cleaned up the dishes and said, "I'm leaving first."

Seeing him about to leave, Cliff quickly swallowed what he was holding in his mouth and reminded him, "Be careful. Call me if anything happens."

"understood."

Yin Li walked around the crowd and went out against the crowd.

Bruce Wayne watched him leave through the crowd.

In the afternoon, Yin Li installed a surveillance camera at the door of the apartment.

He acted in an upright manner, with the surveillance camera facing the corridor.

Hopefully this will scare off harassers.

Nothing happened for two nights after the surveillance was installed.

It seemed as if the knocking sound Yin Li heard that night was just an illusion.

But on the third night, Yin Li heard knocking on the door again.

"Dong dong dong! Dong dong dong!"

This time the knock on the door was so clear and blatant.

He no longer seemed afraid of being known.

The sudden knock on the door broke the silence of the night.

Yin Li's heart trembled and he looked at the time.

The time now is 3:20.

Yin Li first opened the surveillance video uploaded to the cloud.

The real-time monitoring screen is gone.

The surveillance video showed that a few minutes ago, a man wrapped in a black robe stopped in front of Yin Li's apartment door.

The surveillance footage didn't show where he came from.

The black robe was very long, and the hem dragged on the ground when he walked.

He raised his hand to knock on the door.

Suddenly he raised his head slightly, as if he had discovered the surveillance camera.

The hood of the black robe was too big, and the face under the brim could not be seen clearly.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the monitor.

Only at this moment did Yin Li see clearly what was under the hood.

It was a faceless mask, but in the place of the eyes, there were a pair of vivid, bloody black eyes protruding outwards.

The eyes were a little swollen, and the dilated pupils looked a little weird.

On the mask's mouth, a strange smile was painted with red paint.

That big smile seemed as if the mouth was split open.

The knocking on the door continued "dong dong dong".

The surveillance video has come to an abrupt end, pausing on the last smile.

Yin Li closed the laptop.

The knocking on the door grew louder and more intense.

Yin Li left the bedroom and the knocking on the door became clearer.

He was about to open the door when the sound died away.

Yin Li gripped the door handle tightly and opened the door.

There was no one outside the door...

He stepped out of the room and observed vigilantly.

There were no traces in the corridor.

There was no damage to the exterior of the surveillance camera.

This is so strange, it must be an unnatural force.

But why did they target me?

The air suddenly became quiet, with only the lights in the corridor illuminating this small area. The stairs leading to the upper and lower floors were pitch black, like a bottomless abyss, as if something was secretly spying on him.

Yin Li suddenly felt a little scared. He tightened his grip on the door and prepared to close it and go back to his room.

"Yin Li?"
