Her Next Door Neighbor Episode 10: Who is the Real Living Person?

The 'me' sitting on the floor, startled by my approach, turned deathly pale and scrambled backward frantically, dropping the phone in my hand with a clatter. The faint light from the screen illuminated our faces. Identical features, identical terrified eyes. "Who are you? Don't come any closer!" He screamed hysterically, his voice exactly like mine. I froze in place, a sharp pain throbbing in my head. I looked down at my hands. In the dim light, my skin had taken on a bizarre grayish-blue hue, my nails had become sharp and long at some point, and I could even faintly see black fluid flowing beneath my skin. I wasn't the living person who had escaped in here. I remembered. The real me, on the very first night I moved into this apartment, had been curious enough to knock on that wall and was dragged into the interlayer and eaten by the ghost within. The 'me' standing here now is just a 'substitute' created by Room 404 using my memories and remaining flesh and blood to lure more prey. "No... this is impossible!" I clutched my head in agony, letting out a non-human roar. Just then, the 'real me' sitting on the floor suddenly pointed behind me, letting out a desperate scream. Behind me, the dense bloodshot eyes and gaping mouths had merged into a giant black shadow, lunging at both of us with a sinister grin.
