The Magic of Holes

Xu Que didn't even dare to breathe too hard.

He witnessed his beautiful neighbor killing someone again with his own eyes.

Only this time, what he saw wasn't her killing someone with a weapon.

She bit a person to death alive.

"Ni Ma!!"

Xu Que was shocked in his heart.

After storing Huang Zongpin's corpse in the freezer, his beautiful neighbor took off her casual clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

This allowed Xu Que to see all of her gorgeous scenery again...

To be fair, the scenery was quite beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

By the time the beautiful neighbor came out of the bathroom,

her 3,000 strands of black hair were still wet, and so was her skin.

This showed that she wasn't a zombie.

Absolutely not.

But what puzzled Xu Que was, since she wasn't a zombie, why did she have to bite Huang Zongpin, the delivery man who lived downstairs, to death?

Could it be...

Boom!

A thought flashed through his mind.

"Could it be that she discovered me?"

"She bit Huang Zongpin to death to warn me not to peek again..."

"No, that can't be right."

Very quickly, Xu Que denied these thoughts.

If the other party had really discovered him, he would probably be dead by evening.

"But why did she kill Huang Zongpin? Will I be next?"

Xu Que struggled internally.

Huang Zongpin was a delivery man who lived downstairs. He only delivered packages every day. He shouldn't have discovered any of her secrets.

There was no need for her to lure him home and kill him to keep him silent...

No one could answer the many doubts in his heart.

He only saw his beautiful neighbor change back into her pink pajamas, turn off all the lights in the house, and go to bed to sleep.

His field of vision went dark.

Xu Que also came back to his senses.

He quickly covered the peephole that looked like an eye shape, to prevent any light from his side from reflecting over due to the darkness on the other side, exposing himself.

He moved the cabinet back over to cover up the peephole that looked like an eye.

Then,

he collapsed onto the big bed, with his mind full of images of his beautiful neighbor changing clothes today, as well as her killing someone.

Previously, he didn't notice.

Turns out his neighbor was actually a female devil...

The entire night passed.

Xu Que just couldn't fall asleep...

After tossing and turning for a long time, he was still lying on his back in bed, looking out the window.

It seemed he was worried that the beautiful neighbor from today would suddenly climb over from the window and strangle him to death with her own hands.

After all, in his previous life, he was lured into a room by a goddess and strangled to death.

That excruciatingly painful experience led to his inability to fall asleep tonight.

...

After an unknown amount of time passed,

When Xu Que woke up, it was already noon.

He got up quickly and touched his own body, starting with his abdomen.

His waist was still there, he hadn't been strangled to death.

If he lost his waist, he wouldn't want to be a man anymore...

Then he checked his whole body again. Nothing had happened.

The broom blocking the gauze door outside the window last night did not fall over.

That meant no one had come in.

Clearly.

He was just being paranoid. There's no way his beautiful neighbor would kill him...

Grumble~

Another loud rumble came from his hungry stomach.

Xu Que hadn't had any rice in his stomach for three days. He invested all his money into building an underground doomsday shelter.

Now it was almost the end of the month again, time to pay back his payday loans.

He was broke!

That's why he had no choice but to choose to die with his payday loans.

But who could have expected.

After his failed suicide attempt by hanging, he dug a peephole that looked like an eye shape out of the wall, and discovered a new world...

Thinking of this,

he got out of bed quickly and moved the cabinet.

Through the peephole that looked like an eye, Xu Que saw his beautiful neighbor again.

She was home alone watching a movie today.

The movie was adapted from a popular online novel called My Apocalypse Peephole.

Through the peephole, Xu Que watched the movie together with her.

It was as if he had found spiritual sustenance. His stomach didn't feel hungry anymore either.

It was thrilling to watch.

Time passed second by second.

When the movie finished playing, his beautiful neighbor put on a raincoat and rain boots and went out.

Xu Que looked at the window confusedly. With such a huge sun hanging high up in the sky, she was going out wearing a raincoat?

"Could we not be people from the same world?" He went out to the balcony. The sky was indeed filled with a blazing hot sun.

Grumble~

Another loud rumble came from his hungry stomach.

His spiritual sustenance was gone. He had to eat some physical food.

Xu Que had no choice but to go back inside.

He moved the cabinet, wanting to cover up the peephole again.

But!

As he was moving the cabinet, he accidentally made the corner of the cabinet bump into the peephole.

"Damn!"

Xu Que immediately put the cabinet down and strode over.

If the peephole got damaged, his spiritual sustenance would be gone.

But the next moment.

He looked at the scene before him, completely astonished.

The hole that was originally behind the cabinet had changed position after he bumped it.

Xu Que: "???"

He unconsciously associated it with something.

He gently pressed on the peephole that looked like an eye shape, and pulled hard.

Swish~

Indeed, with this pull from him, the hole's position changed.

But the space inside did not change. He could still see his beautiful neighbor's room through the peephole.

A hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Xu Que had discovered something incredible.

This time, he forcefully pressed on the peephole, and shifted it left.

Whoosh!

The hole's position changed, but the visual space did not.

He shifted it right.

Whoosh!

The hole's position changed again, but the visual space still did not.

He brought his eye close to the wall and peered into the hole.

What entered his vision was still his beautiful neighbor's room.

Suddenly, a bold idea emerged from the depths of his mind.

He shifted the hole forcefully along the wall, all the way left.

If Xu Que hadn't guessed wrong, his beautiful neighbor's bathroom should be beside the foyer passageway on the left side.

Indeed!

When Xu Que shifted the hole there and looked through it,

what he saw was his beautiful neighbor's bathroom. Her cosmetics, toiletries, and daily necessities were neatly arranged inside.

But!

At this time, Xu Que discovered something else.

The bathroom mirror did not reflect his image when he looked through the hole.

In other words, this hole was like a one-way mirror.

Only he could see the other side. The other side couldn't see him???

In that case.

Wouldn't he be able to avoid being discovered by his beautiful neighbor?

To confirm whether the hole could be seen from the other side,

Xu Que shifted it forcefully along the wall again.

If the cabinet blocked the way, he moved the cabinet. If clutter blocked the way, he moved the clutter.

He kept shifting until he reached the wall of the neighboring room.

Only then did he run back and forth between the two rooms, repeatedly observing through the hole.

Indeed, he discovered that he really couldn't be seen from the other side of the hole.

So his peeping on his beautiful neighbor had never been discovered at all. He was just being paranoid last night.

That's why he couldn't fall asleep all night.

Suddenly!

At this moment, Xu Que's mouth curled into an evil smile. An even bolder idea emerged from the depths of his heart.
