The Kid Says He's Scared, But I'm the Only One in the House

As a joke at someone else's expense, Lin Chuan foolishly ran into a secluded villa that had been abandoned for years.

It was nighttime, during a thunderstorm.

Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside, while the house was pitch-black.

Every so often, a flash of lightning illuminated the room.

Suddenly, a little kid appeared and clung to Lin Chuan's arm, trembling all over. Looking pitifully up at him, the child said:

"Big brother, I'm scared..."

Lin Chuan pulled out a pack of cigarettes and took one.

His hand shook as he lit it.

"Kid, I'm even more scared than you are."

"I could've sworn I was the only one in this house."
