Here comes February 4th.
Liu Xiang was at Xingchen's house at this time, and the other three were also there, and everyone was discussing how to deal with it this time.
"How about the routine investigation?" Liu Xiangxian asked Lu Ye, "Any clues?"
"No..." Lu Ye shook his head and said, "There is nothing particularly interesting about it. There were indeed some disputes during the demolition process of the illegal buildings, mainly against some nail households..."
In that area, during the demolition process, there were no fatal accidents, let alone supernatural phenomena.
It's still like this...
"It's really strange..." Lu Ye said with some emotion: "In general horror movies and novels, ghosts have some specific origins. However, most of the bloody words posted in the apartment seem to be..."
"No..." Liu Xiang shook his head and said, "Lu Ye, you didn't know much about it because you only entered the apartment at the end of last year. In fact, this is not very regular. When I joined, I asked Li Yinlou Asking this question, he told me that the former building director Xia Yuan said that the probability of whether the blood-lettered ghost has a traceable origin is generally half and half. But in the past year, it seems that there are more and more ghosts with no origin... "
"I think ghosts may be the fluctuating energy of the human brain." Lu Ye suddenly continued: "Actually, ghosts may sound supernatural, but in fact, people who don't understand may think so. If the light is turned on Hundreds of years ago, in people's eyes, it was similar to magic, witchcraft, and incredible existence. The same is true for ghosts... It may be that some people have a deep obsession when they die, and the afterimage formed by the brain waves emitted by the brain Or energy…”
"This kind of hypothesis has been mentioned in science fiction..." Bian Xingchen interjected: "Also, it doesn't matter whether it can be explained scientifically... For the apartment, apart from finding a way out or being lucky enough to escape back to the apartment in time, There is no other way…”
That location is not very far from the apartment complex, and it takes half an hour to get there by subway. Under normal circumstances, in order to allow as much time as possible to return to the apartment after the bloody letter is over, the residents will choose to leave the apartment later to perform the bloody letter. After all, except for the time period indicated by the blood letter, other times of leaving the apartment are counted within the 48-hour time limit.
Also because of this, in the case of the first to fifth times of blood, generally they will not arrange a location that is too far away from K city. Apartments are generally arranged for modern transportation, which can reach the limit of the location within 48 hours. Therefore, at most it is the neighboring province.
However, after the sixth to tenth time, it may be arranged to a farther place. As long as you take a plane, you can arrive within 48 hours, even in European and American countries. If it is an apartment, it will definitely not be a problem to help them arrange passports. Of course, this is something for later.
Of course, this time it was in the city. Considering the unexpected situation, everyone still chose to go out at five o'clock in the afternoon. After dinner, the five gathered on the ground floor. Going early is pointless and dangerous.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xingchen took out the heated pizza from the microwave oven, put it on the table, and said to Liu Xiang: "Ah Xiang, eat it, this pizza has very strong cheese and mushrooms. I remember You said you liked cheese pizza, didn't you?"
"Well, thank you." Liu Xiang is a very enthusiastic person. He worked as a community worker before entering the apartment, and he has always been very enthusiastic about helping others. After entering the apartment, although I was scared for a while, I still cheered up.
For the residents, the psychological hurdle is not as easy as blood. Many people collapsed or committed suicide because they could not bear the horror of this apartment.
Except for Xia Xiaomei, Liu Xiang is the most optimistic resident that Xingchen has ever met.
"Ah Xiang..." Xingchen cut open the pizza with a knife and handed it to Liu Xiang, saying, "Thank you last time... If you hadn't held my hand, maybe I would have been dragged into the basement by that ghost in black... "
"It's okay... I was shocked too..."
After taking another bite of pizza, Xingchen continued: "This time... I checked the map carefully... The section from Santian Road to Beiyao Road is basically equivalent to the area of a large community, and the demolition work has been carried out for about one-third One, there are lots of abandoned houses out there that we can hide from."
"Hmm..." Liu Xiang chewed the pizza and continued, "And then?"
"I... propose that instead of gathering together all the time, we spread out and carry out activities."
Liu Xiang almost choked suddenly, and hurriedly asked: "Separate...separate?"
"Yes." Xingchen continued: "Although it is said that there are many abandoned houses, there are still many empty places due to the part of the demolition project. What's more, ghosts may lock the target at all times. In this case, if we gather together , ghosts can attack without any scruples. However, if we separate, the effect will be much better, anyway, the other party is a ghost, no matter how many of us there are, it’s useless.”
"yes… "
"The apartment needs to give us tips on the way to survive before letting the ghosts kill us. Building chief Li Yin has mentioned this many times, and that Ke Yinye also agrees. Both of them are very talented, and one of them executed it. Six blood words, one executed four blood words...experience is extremely rich."
"In other words... if five people are scattered, the apartment will give blood characters one by one, and then let the ghosts attack according to this order... It can delay a certain amount of time. This time, the time indicated by the blood characters is four hours in total... Delay time It is the most effective strategy for short-term blood writing."
"However, four hours is enough time for ghosts to kill us..."
"No, giving the blood letter is only the first step. The apartment will give us a certain amount of time to think. Of course, the time may be long or short, and those with poor thinking ability may be dealt with first..."
Then, at four o'clock, the two entered the elevator and began to descend.
When getting into the elevator, just after closing the elevator door, Liu Xiang suddenly asked Xing Chen: "By the way... You, have you gone to see your brother on New Year's Eve?"
"Well..." Xing Chen nodded and said, "With him here, even if I really... go, I believe he can take good care of my parents."
"Don't say that..." Liu Xiang shook his head, grabbed his shoulder and said, "We won't die, it's just the second bloody letter, isn't it?"
After arriving downstairs, the elevator door opened, and Xing Chen and Liu Xiang came out. At this time, Sun Jian was already waiting in the lobby. He was still dressed in the same slovenly manner, with earrings on his ears, a skull pendant on his chest, and a cigarette dangling from his mouth. But it could be seen that he was very nervous, his body was shaking all the time, and his complexion was obviously pale. There were already two cigarette butts on the ground.
Seeing Xing Chen and Liu Xiang approaching, Sun Jian immediately took down the cigarettes and said, "Are you here? Are there two more?"
"It's time to come down... It's already this time..."
At this time, another elevator door opened, and Lu Ye and Wen Xuehui walked out. Now, everyone is here.
When he was about to leave, Liu Xiang suddenly saw a piece of paper lying on the coffee table in the hall. He picked up the paper, and on it was a line of printed words.
"Advice to the residents who go to Santian Road to execute the scarlet script. During the scarlet script, no matter what happens, don't look back. Remember, no matter what happens!"
There is only such a line on the paper.
"What's going on?" Liu Xiang handed the paper to other residents suspiciously, and everyone was a little puzzled.
If this is the instruction content of the blood letter in the apartment, no matter how weird it is, no one will react. But this is obviously man-made, is it written by a certain resident and put here
"Are you kidding me?" Sun Jian grabbed the piece of paper and said, "We...why should we believe this kind of thing? Some resident must have written that on purpose."
"What good does this do for that resident?" Liu Xiang said puzzledly, "I don't understand why someone would do that."
"It's really weird." Xingchen took the paper and looked at it, and said, "This is a very ordinary A4 printing paper. It is obvious that a certain resident didn't want us to find out who wrote it, so he deliberately printed it..."
Don't look back no matter what happens
Judging from the blood alone, it is impossible to draw this conclusion. Moreover, I have investigated various situations of the demolition site, and there are no supernatural rumors related to "turning back". Of course, the time is relatively tight, and maybe there is no time to find out some things.
Could it be that this resident found something
Holding the paper tightly, Xingchen felt very uneasy.
"There is still time," he immediately made a decision: "Call the residents to ask, who put this piece of paper? Or talk to Li Yin. If there are residents who know something inside..."
If anyone really knows the inside story...
After all, the words in blood are too scary, and if you are not careful, you will die. No one dared to risk their lives to gamble. If someone found out clues related to the way of life, they naturally couldn't ignore it. Even if the chances are slim.
"Okay..." Liu Xiang also agreed with this point.
So, first of all, I called Li Yin. Then Li Yin sent a short message to all the residents on his mobile phone, informing them of this. The residents who were still in the apartment immediately gathered in the lobby on the ground floor.
It was already half an hour after everyone gathered.
Li Yin looked at the paper carefully, and said, "It is indeed a very ordinary A4 paper..."
Then he asked the residents: "Who is it? Who put this piece of paper?"
But the residents were silent, and no one responded.
"No one admits it?" Li Yin carefully checked the resident roster in his hand again, no one was absent. So... is it the resident who concealed it
There can be no ghosts in the apartment. If you want to inform the residents, you can use the blood on the wall. What's more, the printed paper... is obviously man-made.
A certain resident knows something about the scarlet characters! But why not
"That resident probably learned about these things through a special channel that cannot be told to others..." Suddenly Yin Ye spoke: "Otherwise there is no reason to say it openly."
"Or..." Yin Yu behind Yin Ye added: "I have hatred with the residents and deliberately use this paper to mislead the residents, but this may not be high. However, it cannot be completely ignored."
In short, there is no evidence whatsoever that the contents of the paper are real.
No turning back at any time? What if the ghost is behind us? This is a terrible "advice" at all. Also "in any case"
"Who has been to the lobby on the ground floor?" Li Yin glanced at the residents and said, "Who?"
No one responded.
Someone is lying. Someone printed out this content, and then came to the lobby on the ground floor and put it here... It is probably useless to check the residents' computers, the printed documents and records must have been completely deleted.
This piece of paper, if true...
if true...
So what does it mean
The residents are definitely human beings, human beings of flesh and blood. It is impossible for human beings to know what special arrangements will be made in the apartment, no one can know.
If it is found out that there are supernatural rumors that cannot be looked back, that's fine. But in fact, there have always been a large number of demolition teams there, and now there will be no one until the Chinese New Year. It's impossible for those members of the demolition team not to look back, right? So such supernatural rumors are not realistic.
strangeness…
Too strange…
Li Yin stared at the piece of paper carefully, as if his eyes were about to burst into flames...
Is it possible...
Among the residents, is there someone who can understand the will of the apartment? In order not to let others know this, but also want to save the residents
If such a person really existed, it would be a piece of cake to survive the Scarlet Letter.
this person…
Who exactly
