Third-rate Thriller Novelist

Chapter 9: Scarlet Apartment (9)

Views:

The administrator was stuck for a long time, and after a while, a ferocious smile appeared on his wrinkled face: "No, it's nothing, what we want is the corpse of this little beast."

"Who killed this little beast?" She rolled her blindfolded eyes, staring at everyone present.

Xu Jiaojiao, who had been lying limp on the ground, finally struggled to get up at this moment, pointing at the rotten flesh tremblingly: "It's that pervert wearing gold-rimmed glasses, he and the monster died together."

"The man is dead? That's a pity, the promised reward can't be delivered."

The administrator seemed extremely regretful and said: "However, there are a few other lost animals in the apartment..."

When the bald man at the side heard it, his eyes turned red with jealousy, and his small eyes rolled around quickly.

Immediately afterwards, the administrator closed the elevator again, drove everyone away, and warned with a serious expression: "The residents will clean up the corpse of this little beast, and none of you are allowed to move."

After everyone was driven away from the first floor, they dispersed angrily.

Only Shen Yu stood on a high place and glanced downstairs before leaving.

I saw that the administrator, who had never been active during the day, was sneaking into the elevator with a few apartment residents at this time, searching for something in the dead body of the monster.

He knew that the other party must be looking for the golden key.

Xu Jiaojiao was terrified by the previous experience, now Nian Cuihua clung to her tightly, panicked, and followed her every step.

Cuihua comforted her for a while, then placed her in another safe place, and then came to find Unknown and Shen Yu.

When the three of them came to a secluded place, Shen Yu finally found an opportunity to show the golden key that had been hidden in his sleeve to Unknown and Cuihua: "I just noticed that the corridor manager's eyes were wrong, so I didn't hand it over. "

A golden key, completely different from the previous red or pink keys.

Anonymous held the key, looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help admiring: "You react very quickly, some characters in the book sometimes do deliberately deceive us."

What the residents and administrators in this apartment want is not the corpse of the monster, but the key.

"However, how should I use it?" Cuihua asked.

Shen Yu thought for a while: "The name of Wu Jianyi is engraved on the key, maybe this key is the key to open Room 444?"

Several people had planned to go to No. 444 before, and they hit it off right now, and decided to use this key to try on both the east and west floors.

But room 444 in the east building still couldn't be opened, whether it was using a key, or directly forcing the door, or even Cuihua's brute force, the door could not be opened successfully.

The three had no choice but to go to the west building to try again.

And room 444 in the west building... was not locked!

The door of Wu Jianyi's residence in the west building was ajar, and it opened with a light push.

Standing in front of the door, Shen Yu was holding the key that was of no use at all, and he was even more puzzled.

In the room, the furniture and facilities were very messy, as if it had been ransacked.

The dresser by the window was overturned, the rusty razor rolled to the floor, the double bed was dilapidated, and the alphabet on the wall was covered with a thick layer of dust.

Anonymous made a general survey and speculated: "According to the traces of life left behind, a family of three lived here before."

An alphabet for children to read, a dresser for women, a razor for men, a double bed for husband and wife.

Wu Jianyi brought his mistress into the room and gave birth to a son, who fits well with the family of three... But what about Zhang Lili

Although she has disappeared, she is the real hostess of Room 444. She has lived here for many years, and she should have left some traces of her life.

But no, not at all!

Her traces were deliberately removed, as if she had never existed.

At this time, Shen Yu found a diary from the overturned desk drawer.

Opening the diary, the handwriting on it was messy, like some idiotic ravings written in random by someone in a panic.

[September 16th, sunny]

[She filed for divorce with me, how dare this bitch?]

[Not only eat my food and drink mine, but also can't bear a son, how dare you share my money now?][September 20th, sunny]

[I locked her at home and wanted her to reflect on herself, but that bitch still dared to escape?][No way, I can only lock her in the wardrobe.]

[September 21st, overcast]

[Oops, what should I do? what to do? what to do? ? ?]

[September 22nd, overcast]

[I can't go to jail, Ah Xiang told me that she is pregnant and has a son!][My son must have a father!]

[September 23rd, sunny]

[The apartment we live in is too run-down and needs renovation.]

[October 2nd, sunny]

[The entire apartment was renovated in less than ten days, and I have already used the fastest speed.][The old neighbors praised her, and no one wentssip.]

[It's just that I wanted to paint the apartment white, but the walls are a bit powdery.][But it doesn't matter.]

[October 3rd, sunny]

[Post a missing person notice in the newspaper, although I know she will not come home.][November 1st, sunny]

[Take Ah Xiang home and wait for the birth of her baby son.]

In the next diary, the handwriting gradually tended to be flat, and the records were all frequent and trivial things, such as "the son was born", "Xiaobao will call daddy", "Xiaobao can walk", "Xiaobao got into trouble again , more and more mischievous" and the like...

These brief records in a few words are probably separated from the previous diary by a few years.

Then, the words on the diary suddenly started to panic again.

[September 20th, overcast]

[Xiaobao is so naughty, I don't know where to find a newspaper from a few years ago.][The missing person notice was published in the old newspaper.]

[Inexplicably, I feel a little flustered.]

[September 21st, overcast]

[Remember, seven years have passed.]

[Today happens to be the 21st too.]

[October 3rd, overcast]

[How can it be? I didn't do anything at all, why is there a missing person notice about her published in today's newspaper?][This missing person revelation is exactly the same as the one seven years ago.]

[Who did it?]

[October 10th, overcast]

[For seven days in a row, the newspaper published the exact same missing person notice every day.][But it is impossible for her to come back!]

[Neighbors are arguing, and they start to look at me in the wrong way.]

[A bunch of bastards who want the benefits of being free, didn't they pay enough for the hush money last time?][October eleventh, overcast]

[A missing person notice was published in the newspaper, and then she really came back.][impossible! Absolutely impossible!]

[At the beginning, I obviously hid her!]

When the diary arrived here, the handwriting was so scribbled that it was difficult to distinguish, and there was even blood stains on the paper in the middle of the diary for no reason.

In the end, as if the recorder of the diary was exhausted, he just recorded the last paragraph with weak words.

[I don't know what month it is now.]

[I only know that I want to hide.]

[Axiang and Xiaobao have already hid first, and now everyone in the apartment is looking for us like crazy.][They can call me "Master Wu" affectionately in person, but they want to stab us to death behind the scenes.][Because they want to leave here.]

[But she has already returned, each of you is an accomplice, and everyone should not try to escape.][No one can leave the apartment...]

The messy and scribbled text came to an abrupt end here.

Shen Yu sighed in his heart, and silently closed the diary.

Their previous fears became reality.

Zhang Lili, the hostess of No. 444, had died at the beginning and was not lost.

The cause of her death may be manslaughter, and the most likely possibility is that she was locked in a closet, and died of suffocation due to lack of oxygen.

She must have been in pain before she died.

Anonymous saw his expression, took the diary and read it again, and then said thoughtfully: "We have found the core of this horror novel."

"This is a story of a female ghost's revenge."

The cheating husband accidentally locked his wife in the closet and suffocated him. He didn't want to take responsibility for the murder, so he hid his wife's body, and then published a missing person notice in a fake manner.

The reason why the husband renovated the entire apartment for free was to hide the traces of his wife’s body, and to benefit the residents of the apartment so that they could stop their mouths.

Then seven years after her death, the wife turned into a ghost and came back for revenge.

The target of her revenge is obviously not only her husband Xiaosan's family, but everyone in the apartment.

It also includes those greedy, hypocritical, and tongue-tied residents who pushed her step by step into the pit of fire.

The residents in the apartment panicked.

For the sake of free decoration, they can warmly praise Master Wu as a good man, and naturally, for their own lives, they can hunt down Wu Jianyi's family of three and call them little beasts.

The wife who turned into a ghost wants to kill them, and the residents of the apartment want to kill them too.

So Wu Jianyi hid in the elevator, perhaps because of the influence of Zhang Lili's resentment, he became a monster.

only…

Shen Yu looked at the key in his hand suspiciously again.

The key taken from the monster's corpse cannot open the closed door of Room 444 in the East Building, and Room 444 in the West Building is not locked, so what is the use of the key

Why do the apartment dwellers want the key

The monster that Wu Jianyi turned into has a key on it, but do other monsters also have it

When he was thinking hard, Shen Yu suddenly felt that the black book in his hand was slightly warmed up.

The cover, which was originally cold, is now as warm and soft as the skin of a living person.

He opened his book and found that after finding new clues, the story in the black book was indeed updated again.

[Thirteen cleaners step into the pink apartment.]

[Mints accidentally discovered the secret hidden behind the apartment.]

[Be careful, they all know now.]

[Guess how long you can live?]
