During my senior year, I found a place to rent outside of campus, and my roommate was a white-collar worker.
She was very beautiful and had a great figure. She dressed very revealingly every day for work, but in our shared apartment, she dressed very conservatively, not even willing to expose her arms.
At first, I thought she worked in the red-light district, but then I discovered a shocking secret about her!
01
It was my senior year, nearing graduation, and I was looking for a nice place to live as I prepared for my postgraduate entrance exams. I found a suitable apartment, with a rent of 500 yuan a month, one month's rent as a deposit, and three months' rent paid upfront. It had air conditioning, a washing machine, and the landlord told me that a woman already lived there. She didn't like noise, so he asked me to keep it down while studying.
On Saturday afternoon, I moved all my belongings from the dormitory into the rented apartment. By the time I reached the door, I was drenched in sweat. After opening the door, I was stunned...
A woman in a bathrobe came out of the bathroom. Her hair was wet, and her face was flushed, like she had just finished a strenuous workout.
She seemed to have noticed me, and I awkwardly said, "Hello, I'm the new tenant. My name is Song Qi. Nice to..."
She ignored me completely, walked into her room, and slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
My face flushed red, and my cheeks burned.
As I walked back to my room, I saw the woman applying sexy makeup, changing into a hip-hugging skirt that accentuated her curves, and putting on black stockings and a pair of black high heels.
She looked so charming and seductive that I couldn't help but steal a few more glances.
It was ten o'clock in the evening, and she went out. I was puzzled. What was she doing out so late?
Over the next few days, I found her very strange. She dressed provocatively when going out, but in the shared apartment, she dressed very conservatively, not even willing to expose her arms.
I began to suspect that she was involved in the sex trade, until later, when I discovered a shocking secret about her!
That day, she went out as usual.
After she left, I grabbed my clothes and went to the bathroom for a cold shower.
The bathroom, filled with cold water, was very refreshing. As I was about to reach for the shower gel, my eyes fell on the washing machine.
There, on top of the machine, were the woman's undergarments, bright red.
Was she going through her zodiac year? Why else would she wear such bright red?
But wouldn't she put away her undergarments after showering? The next second, I understood. She had been living alone for a long time and must have gotten used to it, but now that I had moved in, wasn't she afraid I would feel awkward?
The thought made me feel hot, and the image of the woman's appearance as she left the apartment flashed through my mind. My blood rushed, and I quickly showered my head with cold water to extinguish the fire in my mind.
After showering, I reached for a towel, but my hand accidentally knocked over the woman's underwear from the washing machine, and it fell to the floor.
I froze, feeling at a loss.
The underwear was soaked on the floor.
I wanted to pick it up, but I was too embarrassed. As I hesitated, there was a knock on the door.
Knock, knock, knock!
The bathroom door was being knocked on.
Wait a minute!
I remembered that she had gone out. So who was knocking?
My heart skipped a beat. Could there be someone else in this apartment?
The knocking continued a few more times. Knock, knock, knock!
"Who is it?" I asked tentatively, but there was no response. The knocking also stopped abruptly.
I felt uneasy, afraid that the apartment might be haunted. As I quickly got dressed and prepared to go out, I caught sight of the red underwear again. There was some white sticky stuff on it, which was disgusting.
I opened the door a crack and peeked outside with one eye, only to find that the living room lights had been turned off by the woman. It was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything.
I cursed the woman under my breath. What was wrong with her? I was taking a shower inside, and she turned off the lights outside. How rude!
As I grumbled and pushed the door open, a pair of eyes stared at me intensely. My hair stood on end, and my legs trembled uncontrollably.
"You... Are you... Are you a human or a ghost...?"
02
"Meow!"
"So it's just a cat. You scared me to death."
Only after hearing the cat's meow did I breathe a sigh of relief. When I turned on the living room light, the whole room lit up, and I could see the cat clearly.
It was a silver-shaded British Shorthair, very chubby and cute. I crouched down and stroked its head.
"Little guy, what are you doing out here?" I picked it up and smelled a pungent odor, like a dead rat that had been there for days.
"How long has it been since this woman bathed her cat? It stinks so bad."
I put the cat down and went back to my room, picked up my book, and started reading.
At about twelve o'clock, the door opened. It seemed like she was back.
"Ugh..."
I heard the sound of vomiting. Was she drunk?
Should I go check on her?
Forget it, I don't want to bother her.
I turned off the light and lay down on the bed. The woman seemed to be very drunk and kept throwing up. The sound of it made her seem very uncomfortable.
Well, it's none of my business anyway.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on my door.
Disturbed from my sleep, I felt a little annoyed. "What's up?" I asked in a slightly harsh tone.
"Open the door!" she shouted, banging on my door.
I couldn't help but open the door. She stood in front of me, her face flushed and her clothes slightly disheveled. I noticed that her stockings seemed to be gone, but she was still wearing her shoes.
"You..."
She raised her hand and slapped me across the face. I was furious and pointed at her, shouting, "Are you out of your mind?"
I was stunned.
She shouted, "Did you touch my underwear on the washing machine?"
I froze. Oh no, I was busted. Her underwear had fallen on the floor, and I hadn't picked it up. She must have seen it when she went to the bathroom to throw up.
I turned my head away, feeling guilty, and said, "No, I didn't."
"Oh, really? Still trying to lie?" She picked up the red underwear and threw it in my face, yelling, "Then explain to me whose bodily fluids are on this, you pervert!"
I was about to lose it when I suddenly realized something was wrong.
I quickly looked at the underwear she had thrown. It was indeed the one from the washing machine. I looked back at her, a cold sweat breaking out on my back.
Seeing that I was speechless, she assumed I was guilty. She took out her phone and was about to make a call.
"Admit it! I'm calling the police right now and sending you to jail, you pervert!"
She was very emotional and about to dial the number when I snatched her phone away. She immediately started yelling, "Help! Someone..."
As she was about to scream, I covered her mouth with my hand. She immediately began to resist, but I pulled her into my room, closed the door, and turned off the light.
In the darkness, her eyes were filled with terror. She opened her mouth to bite my hand, but I endured the sharp pain and whispered to her,
"Shh, don't talk. There's someone else in this apartment."
03
Upon hearing my words, her body began to tremble. I could feel her fear.
Moments later, there were heavy footsteps outside the door, like someone stomping around in large leather shoes.
My breath quickened, fearing that the person would break in at any moment.
Fortunately, the person outside didn't notice us and left after trying the door.
I let out a sigh of relief and released her.
She was visibly shaken, her hands on the floor as she gasped for air.
"What's going on? How did you know there was someone else in the apartment?"
I replied, "It's simple. When I first moved in, there was only you and me. You had already left when I went to the bathroom, so I was the only one in the apartment. The sound of the door opening I heard must have been someone else.
"But I don't know how that person got the key. They must have thought you were showering in the bathroom, but weren't sure, so they knocked to check. When they heard my voice, they hid."
"So that person was targeting me? That's why they took my underwear and did those perverted things."
She understood without me having to say more.
I nodded. "Most likely."
But there was one more thing I hadn't told her—about the cat.
The fact that I had smelled blood on the cat meant there must be more clues hidden in this apartment.
That person might have other plans!
I asked, "Could it be the landlord?"
Besides us, the only other person with a key was the landlord.
She paused, then said, "You suspect the landlord did it?"
Without evidence, I couldn't be entirely sure.
I shook my head. "It's just a suspicion. It's also possible that someone else did it."
I asked her if she had noticed anything strange since moving in.
She thought for a moment, then her expression turned serious. Her eyes fixed on me, seemingly filled with panic and fear.
"On the second day after I moved in, an old man downstairs told me that this apartment wasn't clean and that I should ask a priest to come and exorcise it. He also said that before I moved in, three people had accidents here—two went crazy, and one died."
"Don't tell me you believe this apartment is haunted!"
Chen Ya's body trembled uncontrollably, her hand gripping mine tightly. I could even feel the sweat on her palm.
I was an atheist and naturally didn't believe in such things.
I asked, "Did you believe what the old man said?"
Chen Ya replied, "Initially, I didn't believe it, but after what happened just now, I do. And it's not just this time. Since I moved in, I've always felt like there's a pair of eyes watching me. Several times, the underwear I hung on the balcony disappeared for no reason. At first, I thought they were blown away by the wind, so I didn't think much of it.
"But now that this has happened, thinking back to what the old man said and those strange incidents, I can't help but believe it."
Indeed, for a girl living alone, experiencing such strange things would be terrifying.
As a man, I should comfort her.
"Don't be afraid. There are no ghosts in this world. Even if there were, they would just be people pretending to be. People are more terrifying than ghosts."
An educated person's words carried weight.
Perhaps my words touched Chen Ya, and her trembling subsided. However, she was still afraid to leave the room alone.
Helpless, in order to reassure her that there was no one outside, I held her hand and walked out.
Seeing that the hallway was empty, Chen Ya finally relaxed.
"See? I told you there was no one outside. It's getting late; you should get some rest. If you're scared at night, you can chat with me."
I was already exhausted, and after all the commotion with her return, I was even more tired.
As I walked Chen Ya to her door, I thought she would invite me in for a bit, but she turned and entered her room, locking the door behind her.
Not even a word of thanks or goodnight.
However, at the moment she opened the door, I seemed to smell a peculiar fragrance, as if she was deliberately trying to mask another smell.
What a strange woman.
04
Throughout the night, Chen Ya didn't send me any messages. Perhaps she had calmed down and wasn't afraid anymore.
I fell asleep eventually. While I slept, I could hear the sound of chopping, but I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was either my imagination or a dream.
The next day, when I woke up, Chen Ya was nowhere to be found.
However, there was a prepared breakfast and a note on the table.
The note read, "Thank you for last night. The breakfast on the table is specially prepared for you as a thank you. - Chen Ya"
Looking at the perfectly grilled meat and bread on the table, I chuckled. So she did know how to thank people.
However, this meat...
It tasted a little strange, not like ordinary pork or beef. The flavor was good, but it was too tough.
It was like dried beef, old and tough. But Chen Ya's cooking skills were good; it was grilled to perfection.
After breakfast, I stayed in my room, reviewing the study materials for my postgraduate entrance exams.
It wasn't until evening that Chen Ya returned. As usual, she was drunk and went straight to the bathroom to throw up.
I poured her a cup of hot tea. "Have some hot tea to sober up."
She took the cup and finished it in one gulp.
"Tha... Thank you."
"We're roommates; there's no need to be so polite. Did anything happen when you were out?"
I asked tentatively.
She glanced at me and shook her head. "No... Nothing happened."
From her tone and eyes, I could tell she was lying!
But if she didn't want to tell the truth, I couldn't force her.
At around eleven o'clock that night, as I was leaving my room to use the bathroom, I saw her changing into a revealing outfit, her back and legs exposed, and rushing out the door.
Logically, she should be sleeping at this hour after drinking so much. Where was she going?
Perhaps it was curiosity or concern for her safety, but I decided to follow her.
After all, for a woman dressed like that at night, it would be more difficult not to be targeted by those with ill intentions.
She went out and hailed a cab.
I quickly hailed another cab and told the driver to follow the car in front. "Don't lose them."
After about a twenty-minute drive, the cab stopped in front of a tavern. She got out, looked around, and went inside.
I followed closely behind and entered the tavern, wanting to see what she was up to.
The atmosphere inside was very quiet, without any loud music. Everyone was sitting around a table, sipping drinks and chatting.
Compared to the noisy bars, I liked the environment here a lot.
After Chen Ya entered, she kept looking at her phone, as if she was chatting with someone.
She went up to the second floor and entered a private room.
I couldn't go in. In order to avoid being kicked out by the staff, I took a small table near her private room. Although I couldn't see inside, I could still hear the conversation.
"Tell me, what is it that you needed to see me about so late at night?"
Chen Ya's voice rang out.
"What else could it be? I just missed you."
A strange man's voice responded.
However, that voice sounded familiar, like I had heard it somewhere before.
"I wish you would stop pestering me. I'm not interested in old men like you, and I already have a boyfriend. If you keep bothering me, I'll have my boyfriend deal with you!"
Chen Ya's tone was harsh; she was very angry with this man.
From their conversation, I roughly understood what was going on.
It seemed like this man had been harassing Chen Ya, and she wasn't interested in him. But if that was the case, she shouldn't have come out to see him at night. If she wanted to set things straight, she could have done it over the phone or WeChat. Wasn't it dangerous to come out in person?
Besides, she hadn't even sobered up!
"The boyfriend you're referring to, wouldn't happen to be that little brat living next door to you, would he?"
The little brat, was he referring to me?
Was Chen Ya using me as a shield?
"So what if he is? I've said what I needed to say. If you keep pestering me, don't blame me for being rude!"
The man chuckled after hearing her words. "You want to be rude? Don't you want to pretend that what happened in the past never happened? Or do you need me to remind you of the fun times we had in bed?"
"You!"
Chen Ya was furious.
"How dare you bring up the past? You beast, have you no shame? If you dare threaten me with that again, I'll call the police and expose everything you did to me!"
What happened between them?
What on earth had happened between Chen Ya and this man?
"If you have the guts, then go ahead and try it. I still hold leverage over you."
"Then let's both go down in flames! If you don't let me live in peace, I won't let you off easy either!"
After shouting, Chen Ya flung the door open and was about to leave.
However, the man's next sentence made her stop in her tracks. Even I was shocked!
"If I had known you were so ruthless, I should have killed you when I went to your apartment yesterday!"
05
"So it was you who entered my apartment yesterday! Was it you who left that disgusting fluid on my underwear?"
The man readily admitted, "So what if it was me? I have leverage over you. You're nothing but my dog. I'll make you do whatever I want. If you disobey me, I won't hesitate to destroy you!"
"You beast!"
Chen Ya couldn't help but roar.
I had been wondering why the man's voice sounded familiar. After he said those words, I finally realized who he was.
The landlord!
So it was the landlord who entered the apartment yesterday. He must have thought Chen Ya was taking a shower and deliberately knocked on the door. It was only after hearing my voice that he hid.
It was a good thing it was me that day, otherwise, who knows what would have happened to Chen Ya at the hands of that monster.
The landlord continued, "There are people around. I'm sure you don't want your dirty laundry aired for everyone to see, do you?"
Chen Ya pleaded, "What do you want from me? Just let me go!"
The landlord let out a sleazy laugh. "You know what I want!"
Chen Ya was turned away from me, so I couldn't see her expression, but I knew she must be in agony.
"Fine, I understand. I'll send you the room number tomorrow."
"Heh, that's more like it. That's what a good dog would say."
With that, the landlord walked out, not forgetting to grope Chen Ya's thigh before leaving with a satisfied look on his face.
Chen Ya stood there, trembling.
I didn't approach her, not wanting to expose myself.
After Chen Ya left, I returned home as quickly as possible.
No sooner had I arrived than Chen Ya came back too.
A few minutes later, I heard Chen Ya's cries.
I opened the door and saw her slumped over the table, sobbing uncontrollably.
Although I didn't know exactly what the landlord was threatening her with, it must have been something related to her privacy.
Pretending to be oblivious, I approached her and patted her shoulder. "Why are you crying all of a sudden? Did something happen? If you're willing, you can tell me. Maybe I can help."
She looked up at me, her face streaked with tears, and burst into tears even harder.
"What happened? Can you tell me?"
I handed her a tissue.
She sniffled a few times, took the tissue, and wiped her tears.
"You... You can't help me."
"I don't even know what happened. How can you be so sure I can't help?"
She looked at me, seeming to have made a significant decision.
"Then swear to me that you won't tell anyone what I'm about to tell you."
Of course I wouldn't tell anyone.
"Okay, I swear!" I said.
Seeing me swear, she took a deep breath, composed herself, and said, "I... I was raped."
It was as I had suspected. The leverage the landlord had on her was most likely private videos and photos.
"When did it happen? Did you report it to the police?"
Chen Ya shook her head. "A year ago. I didn't dare to report it."
Raped a year ago?
Didn't that mean she had been living here for a year already?
Then why did she lie and say she only moved in last month?
Things seemed even more perplexing now.
I asked her, "You should have reported it to the police immediately after such a thing happened."
She explained, "I had no evidence. He drugged me, and when I woke up, I realized I had been raped. He also took photos and videos to threaten me, saying that if I dared to report it, he would post them online for everyone to see. I had no choice but to stay silent."
That bastard! How dare he drug and rape her!
With the videos and photos in his possession, it was no wonder Chen Ya didn't dare to go to the police.
I exclaimed, "So you're just going to endure his abuse and torment?"
I was outraged on her behalf.
She gave a bitter laugh. "Maybe it's just my bad luck. I thought about leaving, but he always found me. After a while, I became numb to it. But I didn't expect him to become even more brazen recently, even resorting to those perverted and disgusting acts. I can't take it anymore!"
She looked at me with pleading eyes. "Tell me, what can I do? I want to escape his clutches! I want to live a normal life! But it seems impossible!"
As she spoke, her emotions became unstable. Afraid that she might do something drastic, I quickly comforted her.
"Don't worry, there will be a way out. I'll help you. Trust me."
After hearing my words, she grabbed my hand as if clutching at a lifeline. "Can I really escape from him? Can I really live a normal life again?"
I nodded with determination. "Everything will be alright. It's getting late. You should get some rest. I'll figure something out."
She nodded and walked towards her room. Before entering, she gave me a small smile.
"Song Qi, thank you. You're a good person."
06
Back in my room, my mind was preoccupied with Chen Ya's situation.
We had only known each other for less than a week, but her experience filled me with sympathy.
To encounter such a heartless scumbag was a nightmare. I couldn't imagine how she had endured it for a whole year.
At the same time, I also understood why she dressed so conservatively at home but provocatively outside.
It was all forced upon her by that beast! He had ruined Chen Ya's life!
No matter what, I had to help her and bring that scumbag to justice!
After racking my brains all night, I finally came up with a plan.
I remembered that Chen Ya had to meet with the landlord again tomorrow. Why not seize this opportunity?
According to Chen Ya, every time she slept with the landlord, he would delete one video. But it had been over a year. There was no way he hadn't deleted all of them yet.
He must have been taking new photos every time he called Chen Ya over, which was why the photos were never-ending.
He likes taking photos, right? Then let him experience what it feels like to be on the other side of the camera!
The next morning, I told Chen Ya my plan. After hearing it, she asked with some uncertainty, "Are you sure this will work?"
I said, "We won't know unless we try. Don't worry, no matter what happens, I'll be there immediately. I won't let him lay a finger on you again."
Chen Ya seemed touched by my words. Tears welled up in her eyes as she hugged me tightly.
"Song Qi, you're so good to me."
I replied, "As long as it helps you regain your normal life, I believe anyone would be willing to help you."
After breakfast, I went out and bought a few cameras and voice recorders. With the help of a friend, I disguised the cameras and hid them in Chen Ya's necklace.
With everything prepared, I followed Chen Ya to the hotel.
She was a little nervous as we went upstairs, so I comforted her, "Don't be nervous. This is it. Just do as I said."
Chen Ya nodded. "Okay."
After watching Chen Ya enter the landlord's room, I returned to the next room and turned on the computer and listening devices.
If anything went wrong, I could rush in to protect Chen Ya at any moment.
A minute after Chen Ya entered, I heard the landlord's disgusting voice.
"You're finally here. I was about to die from anticipation."
On the surveillance screen, the landlord eagerly pushed Chen Ya onto the bed and started tearing at her clothes.
Chen Ya pushed him away and shouted, "You promised me this would be the last time!"
The landlord scoffed. "You believed those words? I was just trying to trick you into coming here. Let me tell you, if you don't satisfy me tonight, you're not leaving this room!"
"How can you go back on your word? You clearly promised me this was the last time. After tonight, you'll delete all the photos and set me free!"
Chen Ya's eyes were red as she yelled at the top of her lungs.
The landlord grinned maliciously. "Ha! After all the time and effort I've invested in 'training' you, you think I'd let you go so easily? I suggest you behave yourself. Otherwise, I'll immediately upload all those photos to the internet for everyone to enjoy."
Hearing his words, I couldn't hold back anymore.
"That damned beast!"
I slammed my fist on the table, wishing I could rush in and beat him to a pulp.
But right now, I still needed him to admit to raping Chen Ya.
07
"If you dare to do that, I'll die right here in front of you! Do you believe me?"
"Go ahead then! Die if you want to!"
"Oh, you're just like you were a year ago. That defiant look in your eyes. That's what made me choose you. But you won't have the chance to die now. Blame yourself for dressing so provocatively. If you had dressed more conservatively, I might not have been interested in you at all. But you just had to drink that drugged drink, didn't you?"
He finally admitted it. It was time to make my move.
I stepped out of the room and went to Chen Ya's, swiping the prepared room card to open the door.
The landlord was shocked to see me but quickly regained his composure.
"Damn it, you set me up!"
I said, "It's too late to realize that now. The police will be here soon. You should be prepared to face the consequences of your actions!"
The landlord roared furiously, "Fine! I admit defeat this time, but don't think she'll get away unscathed. Even if I go to jail, I'll make sure she's ruined!"
He reached into his pocket, trying to grab his phone, but he couldn't find it.
"Looking for this?"
Chen Ya pulled out a phone with a triumphant smile. It was the landlord's phone.
While she was pinned down by him earlier, she had secretly taken his phone.
"You two bastards! I'll kill you both!"
The landlord lunged at us like a madman, but I kicked him to the ground with one swift move.
"I suggest you behave yourself. Otherwise, things will only get worse for you."
I had practiced Sanda for two years. He was no match for me. Provoking me would only hasten his demise.
Soon, the police arrived. We handed over his phone, the voice recordings, and the videos as evidence. Chen Ya and I also went to the police station to assist with the investigation.
Secretly recording someone and taking videos without their consent were also illegal acts, but considering my intentions were good, the police only gave me a warning and told me not to do it again.
I nodded and asked, "How's Chen Ya doing?"
The officer replied, "She's the main victim in this case, so further investigation is needed. You're free to go for now."
After leaving the police station, I didn't go home. Instead, I waited for Chen Ya outside.
Three hours later, Chen Ya finally emerged from the police station.
Her eyes were red and swollen, clearly having cried for a long time inside.
It must have taken a lot of courage for her to reveal the pain she had kept bottled up for so long. Thankfully, the perpetrator was brought to justice, and she was finally free to live a normal life again.
I hugged her and said, "It's okay. It's all over now. You can finally live like a normal person and no longer have to live in fear."
Her body trembled slightly as tears streamed down her face, but this time, they were tears of joy.
"Song Qi, it's all thanks to you that I was able to escape from his clutches. Thank you."
"You're welcome. We're roommates after all."
08
Three days later, we received news from the police. They had found a large number of photos of women on the landlord's phone. After searching his apartment, the police also discovered a stash of date rape drugs and women's underwear. The evidence was overwhelming.
It turned out that Chen Ya was not his only victim. There were many other victims who had suffered the same fate.
After Chen Ya's case was made public, many other women who had been violated by the landlord came forward, reporting their experiences to the police.
In the end, the landlord was sentenced to fifty years in prison for "rape" and "sexual assault."
He would likely spend the rest of his life behind bars.
In prison, there was no one more hated than rapists!
The matter was finally settled, and Chen Ya was able to resume her normal life, going to work every day without fear.
A week later, Chen Ya told me that she was going abroad.
I understood her decision. Although she seemed fine on the surface, the scars he left on her ran deep. Choosing to go abroad was her way of escaping from it all and starting anew.
That night, we had one last meal together. As we walked back to our rooms, she leaned in and kissed me on the cheek.
"Song Qi, you're truly a righteous person. It's just a shame that I'm not a good woman."
I didn't understand what she meant by that.
09
The next morning, I woke up to find that Chen Ya had already left. On the table was a prepared breakfast and a letter.
After reading the letter, I was dumbfounded.
It read, "Song Qi, I'm sorry for lying to you. I'm not actually a good woman. I wanted to kill that beast myself, but your appearance made me reconsider. I hope you won't blame me. I also hope you do well on your postgraduate entrance exams. After this breakfast, please move out of this apartment. It's for your own good. - Chen Ya"
What was going on?
What did she mean? What did she lie to me about?
Could it be that she wasn't actually raped?
And why did she want me to move out of the apartment as soon as possible? She said it was for my own good. What in the world was going on?
Wait a minute!
I suddenly remembered something. The smell on the cat that day, when I was leaving the bathroom, was off.
With that thought, a horrifying possibility crossed my mind.
I went to Chen Ya's room. Thankfully, she hadn't locked it.
As soon as I entered, a pungent, sweet scent filled the air, mixed with a strong metallic tang of blood.
Following the scent, I came to a door, my heart pounding in my chest.
Inside, there was a table with a bloodstained cleaver on it. On either side of the table were freezers.
The overpowering stench of blood was coming from those freezers. I didn't understand why Chen Ya would have such things in her room, but she was clearly hiding something sinister.
Taking a deep breath, I walked towards the freezers and opened one of them.
The sight that greeted me made my blood run cold. My eyes widened in horror, and my soul felt like it had left my body.
My stomach lurched, and I immediately threw up on the spot.
The freezer was filled with meat... human meat!
So that was what the chopping sounds I had been hearing from her room every night were. She had been dismembering bodies.
She had chopped up human bodies and stored the meat in the freezer.
Suddenly, I noticed a cage in the corner. Inside was the cat from that night, the one I had seen by the bathroom door.
It was eating something. When I saw what it was eating, I collapsed to the ground in terror.
It was gnawing on human fingers and eyeballs!
In that instant, I remembered the grilled meat Chen Ya had made for me. A cold sweat broke out all over my body as I crouched on the ground, retching uncontrollably.
That wasn't ordinary meat she had fed me. It was frozen human flesh!
She wasn't some ordinary victim.
She was a butcher, a murderer!
I had been deceived by her, played for a fool!
