Apartment From Hell

Chapter 133: Mysterious oil painting

Views:

"After Xia Xiaomei's death, the investigation really stopped."

Li Yin and Ying Ziye were in the living room of Room 404, watching the report on Xia Xiaomei's death on TV. In the past few days, Huangfu and Xia Xiaomei traveled to so many places, but after investigation, the police did not make any movement.

"As expected, the judiciary has been influenced by the apartment." Ziye has almost confirmed this fact: "This is tantamount to... the apartment is tacitly acquiescing, and even encourages residents to kill each other."

"Yes. It is estimated that as long as you are not caught as an active criminal, there is absolutely no danger of being arrested for murder. We have been completely separated from normal society by this apartment."

Li Yin felt chills when he thought of this.

At present, the biggest advantage of the sixth to tenth instructions in blood is already known—the ability to transfer back to the apartment can be used to bring ghosts into the apartment and suck them into the black hole.

Presumably this is why ghosts cannot enter the apartment. Even if you enter by force, you will be excluded from the apartment. However, this also ensures to the greatest extent that there will be no supernatural phenomena inside the apartment.

"That is to say..." Li Yin turned off the TV, and said one of the biggest advantages that current residents have: "This is currently the only way to completely destroy ghosts. Use this apartment to destroy the existence of ghosts." .”

"However, it is very dangerous to bring ghosts into the apartment together. If it is a ghost without a body, or a ghost with a clone, it is almost meaningless to do so." Ziye said: "Of course, it is different from what we faced before. Compared with the situation where the ghosts have nothing to do, now they have this huge advantage."

However, I also want to know. In order to balance the difficulty of the blood letter, the apartment will definitely weaken the restrictions on ghosts for residents who execute the blood letter instruction for the sixth to tenth time, and even the reminder of the way of life may be more subtle.

At present, there is no resident who continues to follow the instructions of the demon king after Dr. Tang. In other words, the apartment is likely to continue to arrange six or seven levels of blood characters for the newcomers who first entered the apartment, forcing them to choose the devil king's blood characters to fight once. At the same time, residents who originally had four or five times of blood writing may face seven or eight times of difficulty.

If this continues, how long can Ziye live? And when will all the fragments of the Hell Contract be released

"That mysterious person is our greatest hope now." Li Yin gritted his teeth and said, "If that person can really understand the way the blood is born, then we must find this person as soon as possible!"

If you can't find this person, you will definitely encounter the most terrifying ending in the instructions in blood!

At present, the advantages that can be used are very limited, and it is difficult to say how to improve the hope of survival. Although Li Yin and Zi Ye are both intelligent people, the apartment will always use various methods to mislead the residents and hide the real way of life of the blood characters. There are many ways to survive in blood, which are extremely obscure, and you must have a very abnormally high IQ to discover them.

I have to admit that many residents can live to the present, and luck factors account for a large proportion. But can luck last forever? Li Yin still had four bloody characters, and Zi Ye had six more bloody characters. How to spend the ten bloody words in total

"How did you find this person?" Li Yin was really anxious. Is this person a resident of the apartment or someone outside the apartment? Why did you get this special ability

"Li Yin." Ziye saw what he was thinking, and simply said it directly: "Do you think that Ke Yinyu was able to find a way out and come back alive because of his alliance with that 'mysterious man'? And Xia Xiaomei is Did you accidentally discover the process of forming an alliance, so you were killed?"

Li Yin's mind was completely seen through by Zi Ye. He did have that suspicion.

"That's right, Zi Ye, I do have this assumption. But if that's the case, why does Ke Yinyu say that Yin Ye killed Xia Xiaomei?"

"Well, it's very likely that the two brothers and sisters set up a suspicious battle to escape our suspicion. As for Ke Yinye's injury, it doesn't seem like a trick. After all, it is too dangerous. Xia Xiaomei probably stabbed her because of self-defense. Hurt Ke Yinye. In other words, what the brother and sister said is a complete lie. This possibility is not small."

"Well...it's possible." Li Yin thought for a while and said, "However, why did you choose that pair of brothers and sisters to form an alliance? What's the purpose of that mysterious person? Last time that person called you, he didn't ask for anything from you." Ah. If you want to help the residents, why are you only allied with the brother and sister?"

If it is for the fragments of the hell contract, you can also find Li Yin to form an alliance. so why...

"I think..." Ziye suddenly said: "It may be similar to the ancient Three Kingdoms period, when Sun and Liu united against Cao. That mysterious person may be the one who killed Min and obtained the third contract fragment. For the two parties , you are Cao Cao, the most powerful prince, and to fight against you, you need an alliance. That is to say, maybe this person is really a resident."

"Cao Cao? They see me as Cao Cao?" Li Yin said with a wry smile, "I don't think the pair of brothers and sisters are Liu Bei or Sun Quan. The two of them are similar to Zhuge Kongming."

At this moment, at Shen Yu's home.

Murong Mi poured a cup of coffee, tasted it carefully, and put a CD into the machine to start playing.

An English song came out of it, and then he sat down, crossed his legs, and said to Shen Yu who was drawing in front of him, "How is it? Have you decided who will kill Li Yin? Let me declare again, I will not help you to kill anyone. I chose to cooperate with you because you can bring me fun."

"I know." Shen Yu said without even looking at Murong Mirage, "For you, there is no difference between life and death. What you hate most are 'ordinary' and 'rotten'. Only blood, Corpses and ghosts might interest you."

"You really know me very well." Murong Mi put down his coffee cup and said with a sly smile, "That's right. Since I was a child, I felt that life is meaningless at all. Because 'living' is really too boring. Defined by the framework of 'society', it is regulated by vulgar good and evil. There is no 'freedom', and it can only be influenced by the evaluation of others. High-ranking people can decide the life and death of lowly people, and can modify the laws of the world at will. But in the end, all become old and become a pile of ashes. So, for me, it is the same when you die. For me, everything is destroyed, everything is destroyed, dissecting the beautiful living body , and the eternal existence of ghosts, which can not be bound by any existence, will not decay, and will not fall into a vulgar life, is what I pursue most. That apartment is really the most suitable place for me to live in!"

"That's right." After finishing the last stroke, Shen Yu began to color, and said, "Humans arbitrarily define good and evil, and words such as adultery, incest, and depravity appear, and it is also humans who created 'gods' and 'demons'." However, there is no God in this world. It is just an illusory existence created by human beings' purest delusions about good and evil. Human beings live by this self-righteous self-knowledge, but it is just an illusion."

"I... want to use that apartment as a laboratory to completely turn every resident there into a so-called 'demon'. By tearing apart human beings' definitions of good and evil, and exposing the 'beautiful shell' that humans disguise themselves , Sending them to hell one by one is the meaning of my existence."

"That being said," Murong Mi suddenly said, "However, you didn't arrange for Min to enter the apartment, did you? Rather, it's just a pure coincidence, right?"

Deep Rain's paintbrush was dipped in paint again.

"Yes. It may be hard for some people to believe, but it is the truth. I never thought that she would enter that apartment. It was completely a coincidence. If it wasn't for this reason, I would not have stopped the deal with Xia Yuan, and Let him be killed by a ghost. In the more than half a year since Min entered the apartment, I have not had any transactions with any residents. It is because I fear her existence and worry that because she is in the apartment, I will be suspected."

"It turns out that Xia Yuan was killed because he didn't want the residents who knew about your existence to interact with Min and make her suspect you."

"The irony is that after entering the apartment, her hatred for me was not as strong as before. Instead, she seemed to do everything she could to redeem her relationship with me. I knew very well that she knew that she would not live long, and hated me. Only when she was dying, she hoped that at least before she died, she could reconcile with me. And when she knew that I had that 'ability', she made every effort to come to me, hehe, I think she must be thinking that giving birth to me That's great. Because I can be her 'tool' to get out of that apartment."

After finally painting, she began to lie on the wall.

"Although Li Yin must be killed, I am a little hesitant. This man has always hoped to save all the residents. He is my best experimental product. It is a pity to kill him like this. But his wisdom is too It’s too bad for my future plans to keep him.”

"Since that's the case, should we kill him or not?" Murong Mi looked at her with great interest, and said, "You can ask Bian Xingchen to kill Li Yin. Or... how about that resident named Shangguanmian? You can let her go. kill… "

"No!" Shen Yu's heart trembled when she heard this sentence.

Shangguanmian was the one who attended the meeting with Huangfuhe, Murong Mian and others last time. One of the five new resident representatives was the cute girl with ponytails, about sixteen or seventeen years old. But that girl always faces everyone like an iceberg, which makes people shudder.

"If possible, it's best not to provoke this resident... Her danger can be said to be the most terrifying of all the residents. Besides, Ke Yinye and Ke Yinyu have already noticed me. If someone kills Li Yin, they will definitely guess I did it."

Neither of those two people died, and they noticed their own existence.

Deep Rain started to have a headache. If this continues, sooner or later he may become aware of his existence.

When she was dealing with the resident, she once got a lot of money with a very rich resident, so she was able to rent this high-end apartment. However, this money is probably not enough to hire killers. After all, there were four people to kill. Killers generally calculate money according to the number of people killed.

"Or, let Li Yin die naturally at the hands of the ghost indicated by the blood letter, it's better."

Shen Yu already has her own plan.

On this day, at Bian's house.

Xing Yan and Xing Chen came to the basement and began to organize some storage items. The house is so big that cleaning it is also very laborious. The basement has only been used once, and some things that are not needed on weekdays are stored. Now, refresh.

The basement of this house is very large, where old books, furniture, and some oil paintings are stored.

"There are so many things." Xing Chen was tying a box, and said, "So much dust. Is this... left by the people who lived in this house before?"

"Well, more than two thirds are there." Xing Yan opened a box at this time and said, "Xing Chen, you can help me later."

"Ah, good, brother."

In this box, there is a chess board on the top. Xing Yan took out the chessboard and covered it with a thick layer of dust. He blew off the dust and looked again. There was still a box of chess pieces underneath.

"Not bad, it can be used to play chess. Well, it looks quite old, this chessboard... well, what is this? Oil painting?"

Xing Yan took out a dusty portfolio from below. There are many oil paintings in it.

"The drawing is really good."

In this oil painting, it is a woman whose face is almost completely covered by hair. The woman stood in the depths of a dense forest, with her hands on her sides and her head bowed deeply.

And the painting is very realistic, it looks like there is such a woman.

"This is… ?"

The next few paintings still depict the woman in the dense forest. But in the latter painting, the woman is closer to the painting.

One after another, the woman's body kept approaching, and soon, in the last two paintings, the woman's face almost occupied the entire painting.

Xing Yan turned over, wanting to see the last painting.

"What are you looking at? Brother? This..."

Xing Chen saw the woman who looked like a female ghost in the painting at first glance, and almost screamed in fright. And the last painting is a piece of black, nothing!

Below the box, there are several such picture folders.

"I don't know what it is." Xing Yan said: "It looks like it was painted by someone who lived in this house before. The painting is very good, no matter the background or the coloring, it is absolutely top-notch. But, it seems Looks like a female ghost?"

Xingchen came over, took the painting, and turned it over to have a look. On the back of the last painting, there is a line of text written.

"Pulmeling, written on March 21, 1977".

"Is it a painting from 1977?" Xing Yan looked at it and said, "It has been preserved until now. This painting is really good. Huh? Below, there seems to be a painting?"

Another picture folder. There are more than ten paintings in it. In the painting, there is a man in black clothes floating in the sky, and the man's face is covered with scars and bloodstains, and he is chasing a woman. It looked like it was in a deep mountain.

In the last painting, the woman was killed by the man in black, and on the back of the painting was written: "Pulling, painted on May 3, 1977."

"This man named Pu Meiling..."

Xingchen couldn't help but care. This made him naturally think of Shen Yu.

"Brother," he quickly asked Xing Yan, "Is the original owner of this house named Pu Miling?"

"This..." Xing Yan thought for a while and said, "No, it's not called this name. At first, there were seven people living in this house, and many nannies were hired. Later, when the family wanted to emigrate overseas, my father bought this house The villa serves as our residence in China. In fact, I thought it was a bit too extravagant at the beginning. We only live together, so why buy such a big place. The original owner, I remember, was surnamed Jiang. There should be no Pu in their family. people."

However, Xingchen became more and more curious in his heart.

"Brother, help me look for it. Is there anyone else with such a painting?"

Then, Xingchen went to rummage through other boxes and old furniture.

"What's wrong?" Xing Yan asked suspiciously: "Xing Chen, your behavior has become more and more strange in the past six months. Is something wrong?"

Xingchen ignored it, but wanted to find out if there was such an oil painting.

Maybe, just a coincidence.

But is it really just a coincidence

Soon, he found this kind of painting from a box again. In the painting, it is still this kind of terrifying painting. There are many, even extremely bloody and gloomy, which makes people very uncomfortable to watch.

"This author seems to like to draw spooky and terrifying pictures." Xing Yan took those pictures and commented: "If these pictures are all drawn out of imagination, the author's skill is really extremely high. Hmm... this is , painted in 1978."

Xingchen thinks, perhaps, this is the person from the Jiang family who lived here before, and maybe the person who has already lived here. It may also be someone from the Jiang family who inadvertently acquired the painting of this man named Pu Miling.

This person's paintings are so realistic that he can't help but think of the works that Shen Yu once painted.

Is Pu Mailing Shen Yu? However, in 1977, Shen Yu had not yet been born! However, who knows whether the era written later is true or not.

At this moment, in the study where Xing Yan usually reads.

On the tall bookshelf, a large amount of blood was constantly oozing from the gaps in many books. It gushes down like running water and sprinkles it on the ground continuously.

Countless blood began to accumulate, gradually forming... a human silhouette!

Immediately, a pale hand stretched out from the blood!
