Wendy glanced at them, then turned and left the room. She locked every door and window before walking into the kitchen.

She hesitated for a moment. Then she remembered how her parents had been bullied by those beasts earlier that day, and rage flooded her eyes. She decisively turned on the natural gas stove but did not light it.

Before long, a faint, pungent smell began to spread through the sealed house. After that, Wendy spotted a long steel wire. She stretched it tightly across the passageway in the living room.

The preparations were complete.

Holding a lighter, Wendy returned to the bedroom. She stood there without expression as cold moonlight washed over her body. The dim room felt unnaturally chilling.

Seconds ticked by.

The smell of gas drifted into the bedroom.

“What’s that smell?” Adam’s father muttered groggily, sniffing the air.

He slowly opened his eyes. When he clearly saw the white figure standing by the bed, his mouth fell open. His pupils shrank to pinpoints, and his heart seemed to stop.

“At this hour of the night…” Adam’s mother complained irritably as she opened her eyes.

Then she saw Wendy, and her expression instantly mirrored her husband’s.

In the pitch–black night stood a woman dressed in white. More importantly, this woman was already dead. And today happened to be the seventh day after her death.

Every possible omen was in place.

Wendy felt a flicker of inspiration. Her face remained blank as she said in an eerie voice, “I died… so miserably…”

She slowly extended her hand.

“A ghost!” Adam’s mother screamed in piercing terror.

Adam’s father was so frightened that he tumbled straight off the bed. Trembling, he grabbed the boy and bolted for the door.

At that moment, the family shared only one thought: escape at all costs. Panic had stripped them of reason.

The father reached the door first. Just as he was about to grab it, his body stiffened.

“Honey… what’s wrong with you?” Adam’s mother asked, her voice shaking.

Wendy stepped out of the room at that moment, moving at an unhurried pace.

Adam’s father let out a strangled sound as he raised a hand, as if trying to touch something.

He no longer had the strength. A thin line of blood appeared across his neck.

spreading across the ground.

The head rolled toward the boy and his mother and stopped right in front of them. Its eyes remained wide open, hatred frozen within them.

“Ahhh!” Adam’s mother screamed again.

The boy was so terrified that he wet his pants.

Wendy walked up to the two of them and spoke once more. “I died… so miserably…”

Adam’s mother did not hesitate. She dropped to her knees and began slamming her head frantically. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Don’t kill me. Please don’t kill me!”

She wailed as she begged.

Wendy remained silent.
