Mystery Story
Complete silence. The only noise came from the gust of dry wind
which blew through the ancient maze of dilapidated houses
where windows have long shattered in the weakness of their
structures and rotting boards hung desperately to cover the
empty eyes of every desolate home. Doors hung on their hinges
by a single thread, groaning with every sway of the wind.

I gulped, "Maybe I shouldn’t have wandered so far..."

All around me were stocky looking men, whose faces were
