One day, when he was returning home from work, he accidentally stepped onto this subway… (Nightmare Train chat group: 1028660480)
Year 2021.
Midnight, at the subway station.
"The train to Maiden Bridge is about to arrive. Please wait outside the yellow line. Get off first before boarding. Be careful of your feet…"
At the subway station late at night, the unmanned escalator slowly descended. There was no one in the empty corridor, and the sound of the station broadcast echoed in the quiet station.
There were still a few people waiting at the platform. One of them, a man in a gray suit, couldn't help but yawn.
"Hah…"
Gu Ming, 26 years old this year, was an ordinary worker.
In this society where 996 was considered a blessing, it was common to work overtime and stay up late. Tonight, he was forced to work overtime until late at night before he could catch the last train.
Rumble…
At this moment, the ground under Gu Ming's feet suddenly began to tremble. Then, a loud rumble came from not far away.
Along with this roar, two blinding white lights shot out from the end of the dark tunnel. In the next moment, a white figure dashed out like a ghost!
Wuwuwu--
It was a white subway. The train slowly entered the station, and white carriages passed by him.
However, when he looked at the window of the subway, he was stunned.
Because…
Although the lights in the train were all on, there was no one in sight. It was actually an empty train!
"Hey, why is there no one in the car?" Seeing this scene, everyone could not help but reveal a surprised expression.
Gu Ming also frowned slightly, but when he thought of missing the last bus, he could only take a taxi home, so he had no choice but to walk towards the open car door.
The other passengers couldn't help but look at each other, then they stepped onto the empty subway with him.
Wuuuu-
The train started moving slowly. Just as the subway left the station, the name of the terminal station on the electronic information board outside suddenly changed.
The original name of " Maiden Bridge " became distorted and became " Hell "!
……
Rumble…
The subway gradually sped up, and the deep darkness swept past the glass on both sides.
Gu Ming sat down and turned to look at himself through the window.
He was wearing a gray suit and a black tie. His eyes were gloomy and there were two thick dark circles under them.
Going to work, getting off work, eating, sleeping... He had long been tired of such days.
When he was young, he always felt that he was different. He was like the male lead in a novel. Perhaps there were readers reading the book now, and there would be a chapter in this line.
"First place."
"Leave your claws."
"Beep, the old driver punched in."
"My bad, the unscrupulous author has started a new book again!"
However, Gu Ming had waited for so many years, but he still hadn't gotten rich overnight and married a fair, rich, and beautiful woman. It seemed that his protagonist halo hadn't arrived yet.
The cruelty of reality had gradually smoothed out his edges. Now, he only wanted to get off work early and go home to have a good sleep.
Yes, sleep…
No one spoke in the carriage. It was very quiet. Soon, his consciousness began to blur, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier.
"Sigh…"
He didn't know how long he had slept for, but a long sigh suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Who is it?"
Gu Ming suddenly opened his eyes, and all the hair on his body stood on end.
Because the sigh was very close to him, as if it was right next to his ear!
He immediately looked around. There were four other passengers in the carriage, but they were not very close to him. The sound should not have come from them.
Could it be that he was too tired and was hearing things?
Gu Ming rubbed his eyes. Just as he was about to continue sleeping, a voice woke him up again.
"Hey, something's wrong!"
A man wearing glasses and a checkered shirt was looking out of the window and shouting." Did you guys notice? Why doesn't this subway stop?!"
"Yes, I am."
A golden-haired woman in a long white dress took off her headphones and said," I noticed that too."
"It has been more than ten minutes since we got on the train, but the train has been moving forward!"
Hearing their conversation, Gu Ming couldn't help but look at his watch. It was 12:15 p. m.
If he remembered correctly, he got into the car around midnight. It turned out that he had slept for about fifteen minutes.
Normally, the subway would take three to five minutes to reach a station. However, it had been fifteen minutes and they had not reached a single station.
Why was this happening?
"Don't make a fuss."
"Maybe the train was delayed," said a fashionably dressed woman who was leaning against the wall.
"I don't think this is a delay."
" How can there be a train delay of more than ten minutes?" the bespectacled man retorted." If there really was a delay, why wasn't there any announcement from the train?"
"That…"
At this moment, a weak voice sounded in the carriage.
A fat man wearing a hat was sitting not far away. He was holding his phone and asking,"Do you have any signal on your phones?"
Hearing Fatty's words, everyone took out their phones one after another. They were surprised to find that there was no signal on their phones!
Gu Ming looked at the " no service " on his phone screen and woke up.
He tried to shut down and restart, turning on and off the airplane mode, but it was all useless. Even if he wanted to call 110, he could not. They had lost contact with the outside world!
Something wasn't right…
Gu Ming felt a little uneasy. He thought for a moment, then stood up from his seat and walked forward.
"Where are you going?" the bespectacled man asked as he stood up.
"The front of the car."
Gu Ming walked towards the carriage in front without looking back." I'll go find the conductor!"
"Wait, I'll go with you!" The bespectacled man quickly caught up with Gu Ming and said.
Seeing them leave the carriage, the blonde woman glanced at the fashionable woman." Let's go!"
Although the fashionable woman was a little reluctant, she still followed the blonde woman.
Fatty was the only one left in the huge carriage.
"Gulp." Fatty could not help but swallow his saliva.
Although there was no one in the carriage, he felt like someone was staring at him.
"You guys…"
He hesitated for a moment before he quickly chased after her." Don't leave me here alone!"
Gu Ming led the group forward. They passed through the carriages, but there was no one in the empty seats. There were only five of them on this train. They were the only passengers!
Just like that, they arrived at the front of the train. The door to the conductor's room was right in front of the train.
"Is anyone there?"
Gu Ming took the lead to knock on the door of the conductor's room, but there was no movement behind the door.
"Let me try."
The bespectacled man knocked on the door and kicked it a few times, but the door was very sturdy and did not budge!
"Stop kicking. This door seems to be locked from the inside. It can't be opened with brute force."
Gu Ming waved his hand at the man in glasses and then looked at the others." We can only think of a way to stop the train now. Where's the emergency brake?"
" This... I don't think there's anything in the car..." Fatty replied.
Gu Ming couldn't help but frown. The train had been moving, and there was no signal on their phones. They couldn't find the train attendant on the train…
They were trapped on this train!
"Sigh, don't waste your energy."
The fashionable woman found a seat and sat down. She took out a cigarette from her pocket and lit it up." Why don't you sit down and rest for a while?" she said.
"How can you smoke on the subway!" The blonde woman reprimanded.
"Phew…"
The fashionable woman blew out a big smoke ring." Then you can call the police to arrest me, if your phone can be connected now."
"You…"
The blonde woman was speechless. She sighed and sat down.
"What do you think we're doing now?" The fashionable woman blew out another smoke ring.
" Did we accidentally enter a reality TV show..." Fatty said.
"That's possible."
The blonde nodded." I saw a large-scale human observation show like this before. Someone is pulling a prank behind the scenes!"
"Damn it…"
"Don't let me catch that prankster, or I'll make him pay!" the bespectacled boy said angrily.
Gu Ming didn't say anything. He was looking at the car door not far away.
There was a subway route map on the door. There were a total of 18 stations on the route map.
But…
The arrival indicator lights seemed to be broken. At this moment, they were all flashing red.
Looking at the flashing red lights, Gu Ming couldn't help but feel uneasy.
This was probably not as simple as a prank…
Although he didn't pay much attention to it in the beginning, everything that happened tonight was strange.
Normally, there should be people at the subway station in the early hours of the morning, but today, only a few of them were waiting for the bus.
Ever since they got on the train, the train had never stopped.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the darkness outside the window.
The train was moving in the dark tunnel without stopping, as if it was sending them to the abyss of hell!
"Hello, passengers…"
Just as Gu Ming was letting his imagination run wild, the train broadcast suddenly sounded.
"The train is about to arrive at the station. Please get ready to get off in advance!"
Everyone immediately looked out of the window. With the sound of the broadcast, the train began to slow down, and the subway finally walked out of the dark tunnel.
In the blink of an eye, the train gradually pulled into the station. Looking out of the window, it was an unfamiliar platform.
"The train has arrived at the station. Please get off immediately."
Finally, the train slowly stopped at the platform. After it stopped, the door opened.
"We've arrived at the station. Let's get off quickly!" The blonde woman said excitedly.
Gu Ming couldn't help but look down at his watch. It was already 12:30 p. m., and the train took 30 minutes to get them to the station!
"What station is this?" Fatty asked.
"Don't worry about it. Let's go down first!" The bespectacled man walked out of the car first.
The blonde woman, the fashionable woman, and the fat man also got out of the car one after another. However, Gu Ming was still in the car and did not get out immediately.
He looked around the carriage in front of him. For some reason, he felt that this carriage was a little strange, as if there was something invisible here.
"Hey, young man in a suit, aren't you coming with us?" The bespectacled man outside the car called out.
Gu Ming took one last look at the empty car and walked out of the door.
Everyone left the train and went to the platform. At this moment, the train doors slowly closed and the train started moving again. White carriages passed by behind them.
However, they did not see that the train that was originally empty was now filled with people!
There were men and women, young and old, but their expressions were extremely twisted and ferocious.
Some were desperate, some were afraid, some were furious, some were crying, some were crazy, as if they had suffered hellish torture!
A figure in a conductor's uniform suddenly appeared in front of the door. He stared coldly at the new passengers and disappeared into the dark tunnel with the subway as if he was saying goodbye to them...
