   The "Strange Abode" tweet: The End of the Fog, the Final Destination for Driverless Buses? A dilapidated bus struggles within the thick fog, like a prison, heading towards the unknown. Seven people inside—three women and four men—are ashen-faced, their eyes etched with doubt, bewilderment, and unfathomable fear. Outside, the fog churns, while inside, silence reigns—what have they experienced? The bus finally stops in front of an old villa. The villa, entirely black, stands silently in the fog, like a lurking beast, exuding an ominous aura. The doors creak open, silently urging the passengers to step into this desolate place. The seven hesitate to disembark, their gazes involuntarily drawn back with unspeakable horror to the vehicle that had brought them to the edge of hell—the driver's seat is empty. The destination has been reached, but there is no one to guide them. The gates of the Strange Abode are wide open; are the living forbidden, or… the souls returning home? "The Haunted House," the ultimate fear deep in the fog, awaits you to uncover the horrifying truth behind driverless cars.

   "I Learned to Slay Ghosts on a Ghost Stories Forum": Can you believe it when the bloody stories on the screen crawl into reality? When Gao Shen clicked on that pop-up, he just thought it was another cringey supernatural forum—until he saw the poster of "The Fourth Row of the Midnight Bus" describe in detail the sticky black hair under the seat, even describing the feel of the hair wrapped around his fingers as being like ice soaked in water. Even more chilling was the comments section: "Civilization" sent three pictures of ashes ratios, saying it was a characteristic of condensed resentment; "Coffin Carrier" attached a hand-drawn route, marking the coordinates of seven mass graves that the bus would pass by; "Exorcism Squad 07" directly sent an audio clip, with the words "It's time to settle the accounts" hidden in the hissing sound. They called each other exorcists and spirit slayers, discussed the "mirror image skin-changing technique" like they were analyzing reports, and studied the "breathing sounds in the closet" more seriously than experts. Gao Shen had been lurking in the shadows for half a year, just watching the drama unfold, even saving the peach wood sword maintenance guide posted by "Guardian"—until last Wednesday, on the bus he was working overtime until the early hours, he actually heard the sound of combing hair coming from the fourth row. In the rearview mirror, a face was pressed against the window, the lines of its smile exactly matching those described in the post. When the survival guide of the virtual forum became a lifesaver in real life, when the blood-red words on the screen turned into red marks on his wrist, Gao Shen finally understood: those details he took as stories were all lessons learned by those who had died for them. The dark world had begun, and suspense seeped out of the posts, spreading everywhere. Now, do you still think this is just a forum?
