She’s Sleeping (Revised Edition)

The group was diligently searching for various items in the areas leading away from each passage.

At this very moment,

beneath a gloomy and oppressive sky dome,

a massive abandoned and sealed factory was perched atop a fog-enshrouded mountain.

In the darkness, all one could hear was the rustling sound.

A line of people was carefully approaching the factory.

“Listen to me,” someone whispered, “There’s nothing else in this world, just this enormous sealed factory before us…

It’s been deserted for a long time and has multiple exits.”

“According to previous audiences’ explorations, the interior is intricate, like a labyrinth, and it’s very easy to get lost…”

“And there are all sorts of terrifying, bizarre monsters with peculiar, deadly rules.”

“Although you can often pick up various items, it’s also extremely dangerous.”

A person nearby raised an eyebrow, “Deadly rules?”

“The information we’ve gathered so far includes a spring-headed monster you can’t take your eyes off of, a humanoid oddity that will break your neck if you keep staring, and a ghost girl in deep red polka dot clothing that some can see, among others…”

Suddenly, the speaker stopped talking and stared at a shadow under the dim light at the entrance.

His expression instantly turned vigilant, “Be careful…”

“Why…” The crowd was a bit taken aback.

“Because…

there are also masked monsters that can disguise themselves as one of us…

and in such a terrifying place, how could anyone dare to come alone!”

There were plenty of exits…

But they dared not take a detour, for outside the factory there were also some horrible dangers.

“Let’s go and have a look…

if we spot anything off about him…

attack immediately…

These monsters only inherit the strength of those they mimic.

If we take precautions, we’ll have a chance.”

Wary, the group moved forward, only to find the figure seemed unremarkable, harmlessly standing at the entrance.

The person spoke with slight tension, “Brother…

why are you here alone?”

Had they separated from their team, or were they waiting at the entrance for guidance?

Under the dim light, the figure’s shadow stretched long, and they spoke with a relaxed tone, “That’s a very sharp question.

What does it mean to be alone?

Single? fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Lonely?

Or that there are no friends around to share with?

In my view…

being alone isn’t necessarily a bad thing as fulfillment of the mind is a kind of meaning.

Of course, it doesn’t negate the general concept of love, unless you meet someone truly communicable.

Normally, I wouldn’t bother with it…”

The crowd was bewildered by the figure’s string of words.

The leader growled, “He’s not right, it’s a disguised monster, be careful!”

The group quickly drew their weapons.

“A disguised monster?”

The figure slowly picked up from a dark corner…

a monster cadaver sewn with human skin for a mask, “Are you talking about this?”

The group was stunned.

The person murmured to himself, “…

I encountered it about twenty minutes ago, it wanted to travel with me, but upon reaching…

here, it then showed a fearful expression, wanting to change exits.”

“But being lazy, I’m not keen on walking more than necessary, so I dragged it here when running away, only to find a pus-filled monster lingering near the entrance.”

The person’s expression was extremely grave.

“Covered in pustules…”

“I remember now, someone encountered it before, it’s a highly dangerous…

lifeform, it’s best to flee immediately upon sight.”

The fact that it could instill fear in a human-skin-mask monster…

must mean another terrifying monster was present.

There was indeed a hierarchy of creatures here.

“However…”

On seeing the masked monster’s corpse, the group felt reassured and breathed a sigh of relief, “That monster should no longer be here.”

But the person said, “No, it’s also here.”

The group’s eyelids twitched in alarm.

They watched as the person gently pushed the door open to reveal a monster inside, smashed into pieces, its flesh scattered across the entire floor.

The group’s eyes widened, their mouths agape, speechless for a long time.

After several seconds,

the leader took a deep breath, his voice trembling,

“Brother…

we were a bit rude just now, may we join forces with you?”

“Sure.”

“My name is Ke Jie…”

“I’m Su Buxian.”

“So, Brother Su, why standing here, what are you waiting for…”

“Didn’t you notice?” Su Qi pointed ahead, “That creature’s pustules are filled with feces, filth, poisons, and the air is heavy with a mass of floating pollutants…

One breath can cause light poisoning.

I’ve been holding my breath, waiting for it to disperse.”

The group stared with bulging eyes.

Why didn’t you say so sooner!

As the fluff-like particles slowly settled, the contamination in the air was reduced.

“Let’s go.”

The group finally stepped through the factory’s entrance.

Their heavy footsteps clanged loudly on the floor.

“Brother Su, is this your first time here?” Ke Jie noticed Su Qi seemed to be curiously looking around.

“Yes, I’ve scouted other places before, but I haven’t been here yet.”

“…”

Ke Jie looked at Su Qi strangely, “Generally, each area is extremely dangerous, and often it requires a great cost to continually gather information, explore…

and avoid deadly dangers.

For someone like Brother Su, to explore…

everywhere, that’s taking on too much sunk cost.”

At this very moment,

the lights inside the factory were dim, and they could only cautiously grope along the balustrades, stealthily moving through the darkness.

The group continued to tread carefully forward, searching for the items listed.

“Also, I forgot to tell you something,” Ke Jie said as he looked at Su Buxian.
