[00:19.61]Who Was On The Other Line?
[00:24.76]电话那边是谁呢？
[00:30.39]My house has one story, plus a basement¹.
[00:34.52]We have two phones in the house;
[00:36.62]one in the living room upstairs
[00:38.76]and one in a room that we use
[00:40.97]as an office in the basement.
[00:44.22]Well, a few nights ago,
[00:46.22]I was in my living room talking to a friend,
[00:49.68]and I suddenly heard someone pick up the phone
[00:51.89]in the basement.
[00:53.48]Thinking I was imagining things,
[00:55.52]I ignored² it.
[00:57.61]That is, until my friend asked
[01:00.03]if someone in my house
[01:01.24]was listening to our conversation
[01:04.41](I was home alone, so that was impossible).
[01:07.81]As soon as she said that,
[01:09.47]whoever was downstairs hung up.
[01:13.79]Fear came over me, obviously,
[01:16.93]and I told my friend I had to go.
[01:20.55]The first thought that entered my head was...
[01:23.03]had someone found a way into my basement
[01:25.78]without my knowledge?
[01:27.41]It never occurred⁴ to me that
[01:28.78]it could have been a ghost.
[01:31.09]I should have been calling the police
[01:33.07]or running out of the house...
[01:35.09]anything but going down to the basement.
[01:38.51]But, that's what I found myself doing.
