7:45 a.m. in Beijing.

Yu Mengmeng sat on the bus and looked at the long queue of vehicles in front of him, and he was about to be late to go to the company, but the vehicles in front of him had no intention of moving forward. If I knew that the traffic jam was so serious, I should have caught up with the one in front of this bus, maybe I would have arrived at the company a long time ago. In desperation, she gritted her teeth, got out of the car and started running. Instead of waiting to die, it is better to work harder, and maybe there is hope that you will not be late.

But fortunately, there are only three stops away from the company, Yu Mengmeng took a deep breath, took out the momentum of a 100-meter sprint, and ran forward desperately. Because she wears professional attire and high heels, her running style looks as bulky and ridiculous as a wobbly duck. People who were originally anxious in traffic jams all smiled tacitly when they saw her running through like a gust of wind and running in a funny manner.

In the middle of May in Beijing, even in the morning, there is no refreshing feeling, and the weather is so hot that people sweat and feel irritable. This weather is also thanks to this girl's courage and perseverance.

Finally, running wildly, she boarded the company's elevator in the last three minutes. There was no one in the elevator in my heart, but I felt a compelling cold air rising from the soles of my feet to my head, and my whole body was indescribably comfortable.

Yu Mengmeng, this girl has a big heart and thick nerves, and she doesn't have any special feelings, and she feels that the air conditioning in the company's elevator today is full. He didn't notice that there was an unusual shadow behind him, exuding a chilly air.

The shadow looked like a humanoid, just standing silently, without any sense of existence.

After pressing the number on the sixteenth floor, she was completely relieved, and she was finally not late. If she doesn't perform well when she first comes, I'm afraid it will affect her year-end evaluation. What's more, her boss is so handsome, what if she is late, what if he knows about it and affects her image in his heart? What if he might not like himself because of this? So how did he marry himself and have children...... Hey, isn't he already married?

"Stop!" Yu Mengmeng couldn't help muttering in a low voice, and after waking up, his face was red and red by his own brain, and he was extremely disgusted for his behavior. looked at himself in the elevator mirror and scolded in his heart: Yu Mengmeng, Yu Mengmeng, if you don't control your cranky thinking, you will be treated as a fool sooner or later!

When the elevator indicator number changed to sixteen, hearing the sound of "ding", Yu Mengmeng was about to walk out subconsciously, but was stunned by the picture in front of him.

A large area of black, scorched earth, the sky is bright and dark, but there is enough light to see everything here. I couldn't tell how big it was, but everywhere I could see was black branches and thorns. The thorny tentacles fluttered and whipped in the air, and the little thorns on them stood by the light at any time. A faint blue-gray mist drifted through the branches and thorns in the air, making the whole atmosphere look even more eerie and terrifying.

This scene as if he was in a dream made the hairs around Yu Mengmeng's body instantly stand up, and his whole body was cold. She pinched herself hard, the pain going down the nerve endings to her brain, reminding her that it seemed real. Yu Mengmeng tried to convince himself to calm down, and pressed the door close button on the elevator with trembling hands, but he couldn't see the elevator door close. The more scared I was, the more I pressed the door button harder, and I didn't respond for a long time, and finally pressed all the keys until I was out of breath and broke out in a cold sweat.

She had never been so scared. She could sense an invisible danger hidden in the black area in front of her. But she couldn't escape from here. I was so anxious that I was so weak that I even cried in despair, and I couldn't figure out whether I was dreaming or in reality.

But it hurts, but can such a terrible thing happen in reality? Does this make sense? Is it true?

"It's true!" There was a creepy voice behind him. The mysterious figure in the shadows had been reading her thoughts, answering the questions in her mind, muttering incomprehensible words to herself with a dangerous temptation, as if sighing, "It's almost time." ”

Hearing someone speak, Yu Mengmeng stood up suddenly, but when he turned around, he was pushed out of the elevator door by a pair of cold hands. She didn't see what the one who was speaking.

A large shadow hung over the elevator, and the corners of the lips of the speakers curled into a smile that no one could see. His eyes stared straight at Yu Mengmeng, who was quickly surrounded by black thorns that suddenly burst out from all directions, tightly entwined, and finally turned into a black cocoon-like thing. The upper part is leafy and barbed. They squirmed, digging the thorns from the vines into every inch of Yu Mengmeng's skin. Soon, dark red blood flowed out, staining the entire cocoon-like black thorns into a blood-stained appearance, and the thick blood dripped down the thorn vines into the charred black earth.

The whole process happened so fast that Yu Mengmeng was quickly engulfed before he even had time to scream.

The man in the shadow of the elevator smiled with satisfaction, licking the corners of his mouth bloodthirstily, looking contented. Gently opening his lips, his white teeth flashing with a cold light as beautiful as a blade, the ordinary sigh of business remembered again: "If you don't die, how can you live?" ”
