Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 492

Chapter 489: Scorched

After getting this result, Izzy withdrew her resignation in frustration. She had to continue working for three months to maintain her life in the city during the next period of time.

“I can only resign after the approval is given.”

Izzy returned to the rental house, entered the bedroom, and locked the door.

Since her roommate disappeared, Izzy would lock the door every time she returned to the bedroom.

She threw the application receipt and other information on the cabinet beside the bed, and then lay down on the 1.2-meter-wide single bed.

But just as she lay down, she sat up again.

“Huh, it’s so hot, why do I always feel so dry recently?”

Izzy sat up and pulled her collar.

It was already the end of September, and the weather had turned from the previous hot weather to cool, but she became more afraid of heat.

It seemed that there was a fire burning in her body at any time, making her feel upset.

Just as Izzy was thinking about whether to go to the public bathroom to take a shower, she suddenly heard a strange movement in the next room.

It was like someone was dragging their feet next door, and the soles of their shoes made a long and harsh friction sound against the ground.

Izzy’s hand that was shaking her collar stopped instantly.

She didn’t dare to move her body, and her eyes turned to the wall next door.

“What, what’s going on, why is there a sudden movement next door?”

The walls inside the room here are relatively thin, and in the past, if there was a little more noise, it might be heard by the roommate.

But it was the first time that Izzy heard footsteps that seemed to be someone walking next door.

“Could it be that a new person has moved in, and the landlady hasn’t had time to tell me yet?”

Thinking of this, Izzy’s stiff body gradually softened.

“Really, shouldn’t I be told before someone else moves in?” Izzy’s hand continued to pull at her collar, relieving the heat radiating from inside to outside.

Although she was a little impatient and unhappy, she still stood up and prepared to meet her new roommate.

Although they might only spend three months together in the future.

However, as soon as Izzy stood up, the communicator in the corner of the wall rang.

This communicator is usually placed in the living room, but because Izzy is the only one living here, for convenience, she took the communicator to the table in the bedroom.

When the pleasant ringtone of the communicator sounded, the footsteps next door suddenly stopped.

Izzy didn’t notice this, but picked up the communicator.

“Hello.”

“Izzy, the room next door to you is rented out today.”

It turned out to be the landlady.

Although she is called the landlady, she is actually only responsible for renting out the room, and the real owner is unknown.

“Well, I know.”

“Ah? You know? Well, he should move in tonight, but he doesn’t have the key. Since you are at home, help him open the door.”

The footsteps next door sounded again.

Izzy’s hand holding the communicator trembled a little, “You, you mean, he hasn’t moved in yet?”

“Of course, if someone else moves in, I will definitely tell you first.”

Izzy didn’t say anything else.

“Hello… Hello?” The landlady’s puzzled voice came, and after several times without Izzy’s response, the other party mumbled and turned off the communicator.

Izzy still kept the posture of holding the communicator, stiff in place.

If the next door is not a new tenant, then who could it be?

Her ears stood up like a rabbit, listening attentively to the footsteps next door.

The kind of footsteps that were dragged out, as if they couldn’t lift their feet.

The sound came from behind the wall on the side of Izzy, and walked towards the door little by little, and then…

“Squeak.”

The door was well maintained, and there was only a little sound when it opened. Izzy couldn’t hear this sound at ordinary times, but today, for some reason, she heard it very clearly.

Then, she heard the footsteps approaching her bedroom door.

Under Izzy’s stiff gaze, the door handle was slowly turning.

Just like the day her roommate disappeared.

Exactly the same.

Izzy didn’t dare to move, she was afraid that her movement would trigger something even more terrible.

“My door is locked. The person outside can’t open it. If he can’t open it, he will leave, right?”

However, the door handle that was only twisted a few times last time turned faster and faster this time, and it turned more and more violently!

Several screws used for fixing were obviously shaking, and then the door handle turned faster and faster.

The door lock and the door frame made a high-frequency collision sound, which seemed to hit Izz’s heart!

Suddenly!

The sound disappeared.

The door handle stopped turning and just hung loosely on the door.

“Has the person outside left?” Izz still held the communicator in her hand tightly, almost crushing the shell.

However, the footsteps that she expected to leave did not sound.

“That person, is he still standing behind the door?”

At this time, the communicator in Izz’s hand suddenly rang again.

Izz’s hand trembled, and she almost threw the communicator away. In a panic, she wanted to press the close button, but accidentally pressed the answer button.

The voice of the landlady rang again.

“Izzy, your new roommate is here now. He can’t open the door. So, I’ll ask him to knock on the door, and you open the door, okay?”

As the landlady spoke, the sound of knocking on the door rang out.

Izzy suddenly turned off the communicator.

She heard that it was her bedroom door that was knocked.

Moreover, the same knocking sound was heard from the communicator, which would delay the transmission of information for a few seconds.

“This must be a dream, right?” Izzy was numb with fear. “If it is a dream, please let me wake up quickly.”

The knocking sound only rang once and then quieted down, as if the person outside was politely waiting for the girl to open the door.

“Yes, I locked the door, and the outsiders can’t come in.”

Izzy felt that her throat was dry as if it was burning. She wanted to drink a sip of water, but she still didn’t dare to move.

Just when she couldn’t help turning her head to look for the cup of water on the table, she saw a dark shadow in her peripheral vision, approaching her left face little by little.

The outsider… came in? ! ! !

“Ah!!!!”

Izzy couldn’t hold it back any longer and screamed, her voice almost piercing through the doors and windows.

…

“Ah!!!!”

Just as Thor was about to lower his head to check the evil spirit in his hand, he was startled by a scream from the other side of the door.

“What’s going on? Is there another evil spirit inside?”

Thor immediately reached out and twisted the lock of the door in front of him gently, then pushed the door open and walked in.

Inside the room, Izzy leaned back limply, and Xiaozao was wrapped around her waist to prevent her from falling.

At this time, when Thor entered the room, Xiaozao raised her head and looked at Thor helplessly.

“Well, it’s not your fault, she was too nervous.” Thor recalled the situation when he just came to this room, and comforted Xiaozao who was inexplicably aggrieved.

At that time, Thor came to the outside of Izzy’s rental house, used the “Silent Portal” to open the door directly, and raised his eyes to see a black shadow kneeling outside one of the doors.

A closer look showed that the shadow was not kneeling, but a charred corpse, because both feet had melted, and could only move a little bit by relying on the knees.

The other person also had no hands, and was using his uneven, equally charred skull to press against the handle of the bedroom door.

It was a newborn evil spirit.

Without saying a word, Thor swung out his tentacles from his palm, and almost broke the other person in half as soon as he met his face. Then he took out the round-bottomed bottle that sealed the evil spirit and put the already immobile evil spirit into it.

As soon as he finished all this, he was startled by the screams in the room and almost broke the bottle he had just filled.

After comforting Xiao Zao, Thor walked over and prepared to put the unconscious girl on the bed.

As a result, when he grabbed the girl’s wrist and wanted to pull her up first, the resistance in his palm suddenly disappeared, and the arm that was exerting force suddenly pulled back.

Thor lowered his head, spread his palm, and saw that he was holding a wrinkled flesh-colored “glove”.

On the opposite side, the skin of the girl’s left hand, who was rolled up by Xiao Zao, began to break from the wrist.

And the flesh exposed after she lost her skin was like a carbonized corpse…

shriveled and charred!

Knock on the door to ask for monthly tickets!
