Third-rate Thriller Novelist

Chapter 4: Scarlet Apartment (4)

Views:

Brooms, rags, buckets, and cold lunch boxes.

After the administrator left, the flower-armed man kicked the bucket away, and cursed as if venting: "I'm locked up in this crappy place, eating this crappy lunch box, I only have one hand left and I have to work for them!" , clean up his mother's hygiene!"

The rest of the people were not surprised by his violent temper, no one paid attention to him, only his little brother Huang Mao was still supporting him.

It was hard for a disabled person to walk up the stairs, so the two came to the center of the hall and wanted to take the elevator.

However, the elevator with the tightly sealed door was obviously unoccupied, but the numbers displayed were constantly changing. It was obvious that the elevator was constantly moving between floors.

It was only then that the flower-armed man remembered that the administrator had said yesterday that the elevator was broken.

"Damn, you're so lucky that you can't drink cold water until your teeth get stuck!"

He cursed and cursed, and finally just sat in the hall, motionless like a master, just commanding his younger brother: "Ah Huang, you can do my share of the work together!"

Huang Mao's eyes flickered for a moment, but he thought that after he went out, he would have to continue to make a living under the boss's hands, so he finally obediently agreed.

The rest, according to the previous team formation, went to different floors to clean up separately.

After leaving the crowd, Shen Yu came to a hidden place, took out his black book, and flipped through it.

He was flipping through Boss Qian's books before, and unexpectedly discovered that their every move in the apartment might become a new story on the pages of the book.

Sure enough, the text of the analytical information written by himself last night had changed and turned into a brand new story.

[Thirteen brave cleaners live in the pink apartment.]

[Cleaner Peppermint, he heard the movement outside the window, but did not open the window; he heard the knock on the door, but did not open the door for the visitor. So the visitors said, he is not a hospitable person!][Peppermint just questioned the rules of the apartment, so Anonymous lent him a pen, and he wrote the first stroke of his story.]Shen Yu lowered his eyes slightly, his slender fingers stroked the words, and finally stopped on the two names that appeared.

Mints

It should be the pen name given to him by the story.

Then the "Anonymous" who lent him the pen refers to...

He lowered his head and stared at the little boy in front of him.

The little boy has been quietly following him, sensible and obedient, and his sense of existence is very weak.

At this time, he raised his round face obediently, and looked at Shen Yu with his dark eyes, as if asking silently: "What's wrong?"

Anonymous refers to an unknown person, and also refers to a person who does not want to reveal their name. On literary works whose authors are unknown, they will also be signed anonymously.

Shen Yu was silent for a long time, then suddenly shot and grabbed the little boy from behind.

The little boy was slightly startled, but his body jumped up lightly, like a dexterous cat, lightly avoiding the attacking palm.

But Shen Yu's target is not him.

The schoolbag that the little boy was straddling diagonally, he couldn't dodge in time, was grabbed by him, and the pocket was turned upside down.

With a "click", a book fell to the ground.

In a child's schoolbag, there is no imaginary paper, pen, homework, and textbooks, only a black book that is exactly like him.

And judging from the child's calm and composed expression, it's definitely not the first time he's entered horror novels.

Shen Yu's eyes hadn't moved away from the book, and the side of his neck suddenly felt cold.

A child's voice came from behind him: "Don't move."

His face remained unchanged: "You lied to me."

The little boy was silent for a while: "I didn't lie to you, it's just that you misunderstood."

Shen Yu: "You lied to me that you were a primary school student."

Little boy: "... I really lied to you about this."

Shen Yu: "You are not only a novelist, but also a veteran."

The little boy behind seemed to smile: "And others think you are a veteran, but I can tell that you are actually a newcomer."

A newcomer means that the combat effectiveness is not high, and the real rules are not even clear.

Shen Yu also understood what he was alluding to, and couldn't help cursing inwardly.

The current situation is really a bit passive.

But soon, the cold touch on his neck disappeared.

The little boy put away the blade, turned around and came to him: "I don't want to hurt you."

"Sorry for misleading you earlier."

Shen Yu touched his neck that was still chilling, with a puzzled look on his face, and asked, "Is your pen name called Anonymous?"

The little boy said lightly: "Every novelist's pen name is given by the novel."

Shen Yu: "Tsk."

If you like to eat mints, you can call them "Mints", if you are obese, you can call them "Pangpang", if you are too lazy to name them, you can call them "Anonymous". This novel is really bad!

The little boy named Unknown continued to ask: "Let me ask again... You chose me at the beginning, do you regret it now?"

Shen Yu looked down at him, and after a long time, he smiled, turned around and left without making any other gestures.

"We still have tasks to complete, don't be dazed, let's go!" He still held the cleaning tool in his hand, but greeted him in an extremely chic manner.

Anonymous looked at his back, with a smile in his eyes, and followed him.

Now that the identities of the two have been confessed to each other, Anonymous no longer hides himself.

He directly made a suggestion to Shen Yu: "Cleaning the apartment may not only clean the corridors and corridors, but the rooms of the residents are also within the scope of the apartment."

By cleaning the residents' rooms, you can communicate with the residents and collect useful information from the residents.

This proposal was very good, so the two began to knock on the door of the house, providing free cleaning services.

Shen Yu has a sunny appearance and a cheerful personality, which makes people like him at first sight. He used to enjoy himself wherever he went.

It's a pity that when I ran into the residents of the pink apartment, I was rejected for an unprecedented time.

The residents here have rather strange appearances, just like the administrators they met before, their cloudy eyeballs are all covered with a layer of gray cloud.

In addition, the residents are either deaf or dumb, almost no able-bodied people, and everyone is very vigilant and very unfriendly to outsiders.

Often, after Shen Yu knocked on the door for a long time, the residents would slowly open a crack in the door and use their cloudy eyes to look at people through the crack. Close it hard.

The two persevered in promoting themselves layer by layer, and finally met a family who were willing to open the door to let them in.

The owner of this family is a middle-aged woman, not dumb, and not so deaf, so she can hear their voices clearly.

Shen Yu worked diligently on cleaning while chatting with the other party.

"Auntie, the decoration of your home is so beautiful, the pink is tender and tender, it really matches your complexion!" He praised.

Hearing the compliment, the owner covered his mouth and smiled: "Oh, you kid is really diligent and sweet. The decoration of our apartment is the same, all made by Master Wu."

"Oh? Master Wu's craftsmanship is really good." He caught the key information, but still asked casually: "Then how much did the renovation cost? I will also ask Master Wu to renovate my house later."

The owner laughed even wider: "You don't know that! The decoration of our apartment is all done by Master Wu for free, and there is no money at all."

Shen Yu pretended to be surprised and asked: "If you don't want money, then Master Wu will lose money?"

Hearing what he said, the homeowner laughed until his teeth came out.

The residents in the pink apartment, for some reason, all have a mouth full of sparse, yellowish rotten teeth, as if all the good teeth had been pulled out of their mouths.

She proudly said: "Master Wu has a construction site himself, and he is the foreman on the construction site. He grew up in our apartment. He wanted to give back to the old neighbors in the apartment, so he paid for the entire apartment to be renovated again. "

Shen Yu pretended to admire: "So, Master Wu is really a good man!"

"But I see, why did he only decorate the west building, why didn't he decorate the east building of the apartment?"

This was just an unintentional remark at first, but after hearing this, the owner of the house suddenly changed his face: "What east building, who told you that our apartment has an east building?"

"We obviously only have the west building in our apartment, how could you not know? Who are you two?"

The more the owner spoke, the more embarrassing his face became, the aura around him gradually became terrifying, his figure skyrocketed, his cloudy eyes began to congeal, and his mouth grinned as if it was split open.

The sparse yellow teeth also began to grow longer and sharper, until finally a mouthful of fangs and sharp teeth grew.

Anonymous got up to stand in front of Shen Yu, and turned over the black book with his palms. There was a cold light, and three sharp scalpels were already caught between his fingers.

Seeing the owner's physical changes, Shen Yu suddenly remembered that the administrator once said that he must be very polite when talking to apartment residents.

So he turned his mind sharply and said, "Auntie, did you hear wrong? What are the east and west buildings? I'm talking about repairing the stairs. The stairs in the apartment can be repaired wider."

"Did I hear wrong?"

The homeowner gave a quick pause, but the people here are more or less deaf, it's hard to say if they heard wrong.

She hesitated for a moment, then looked at the blade between Unknown's fingers, and finally returned to her original figure reluctantly.

However, after such an episode, she didn't have a good look at Shen Yu and the two of them, and directly kicked them out of her home.

Once again, the two of them who had the door shut, looked back at the closed door.

Shen Yu smiled, and touched the fluffy head of Anonymous: "It doesn't matter, anyway, we have already obtained the key information."

"Master Wu" who decorated the entire apartment for free matches the information given at the beginning of the black book, and they can start from this breakthrough point.

With a blank expression on his face, Anonymous tore the opponent's hand from his head.

This person, after knowing his true identity, turned out to be presumptuous, and even started to touch his head.

How unreasonable!

The day was quickly spent in the cleaning of the crowd.

At night, everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor, looking at the administrator with complicated expressions, waiting for the key to be reassigned.

Two people died last night, and now there are eleven of them left.

Tonight, there will still be one person left alone.

Sure enough, the administrator looked at their number, smiled on his wrinkled face, dipped his fingers in his saliva, and counted out six keys.

Five pink keys and one red key.

"Two people share a room, you allocate it yourself." Still leaving such a sentence, the administrator left.

With previous experience, everyone in the room unanimously aimed at the pink key.

In the chaos, the bespectacled man, who was about to grab the key, felt a sudden pain in his wrist.

"Ah!" He yelled, and was extremely astonished to see Xu Jiaojiao rushing up suddenly, desperately biting his wrist hard.

Looking at Xu Jiaojiao's red eyes, he instantly understood that the other party was out to avenge his sister.

The chaos was over, all the pink keys were gone, only one red key was left, which was thrown on the ground in disgust by everyone.

The man with glasses who didn't grab the key looked at the red key gloomyly, and suddenly violently slapped Xu Jiaojiao on the face: "You bitch! Crazy woman!!"

Xu Jiaojiao, who had been slapped, quickly swelled half of her beautiful face, and the corners of her mouth were bloodshot.

But the way she looked at the man with glasses was full of pleasure and joy, and she cursed viciously: "Go to hell! You deserve to live alone in the east building and pay for my sister's life!"

Completely taking off that layer of gentle skin, the man with glasses was anxious and hated at this moment, his face flushed red, and he reached out his hand to grab Xu Jiaojiao's hair: "I'll kill you crazy bitch first!"

"How dare you!" Seeing that the person she was covering was threatened, the short-haired girl immediately jumped up and confronted the man with glasses whom she had always disliked.

The two were about to fight again.

"I'll trade with you!"

A voice suddenly startled everyone present.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw Shen Yu picking up the red key and throwing the original pink key in his hand on the ground.

Facing everyone's shocked eyes, he smiled slowly: "Suddenly, I want to go to the east building to stay."
