My name is Bai Mo, and I’m a student about to graduate from high school. A birthday party instantly became an abyss that devoured lives.
The lights flickered eerily, and a hand reached out of the shadows, icy cold. A ghastly white candle was forced into my hand. The voices of my old classmates trembled with something inhuman…
“Take this white candle! Don’t let it go out… Run! Get out of here…”
The candle flame was faint, wavering wildly in the thick, impenetrable darkness. I ran, with silence behind me, and yet it felt as if countless eyes were watching. The chilling realization shattered every illusion:
“None of this is real! This party, all of this… it’s fake, isn’t it?!”
Despair poured over me like ice water. In the candlelight, the warmth of home became the most distant of hopes. A thought pierced through the boundless terror: “I want to go home… I just want to have one last meal with my parents before I die…”
The candlelight flickered. Every wavering flame seemed to count down the few moments of life I had left…
The book written by the author has fluent language, relaxed writing, extremely accurate and vivid, rich and real emotions, and is full of wit and fun. It is hard to put down when reading it!
It looks okay so far Bo'er, why are you gone? I want to keep it to read a few more chapters.
The plot is lively and interesting, expressing the author's homesickness.
