Chapter 147: Settlement (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Sunset Apartment.
It is located in the eastern district of Haig City, in an old neighborhood.
Tong Mu originally planned to fake his identity, but the security guards in this community didn't ask at all, squatted aside to smoke, and let him, a stranger, enter and exit.
"Sunset Apartment, found!"
He looked at the dilapidated apartment building in front of him, nodded, and walked in.
Shortly after he entered, a group of staff from the secret agency arrived in a hurry.
"The scope of the community is too large, but until now, the source of the weirdness has finally been determined, and it is in this apartment!"
Javi walked side by side with Linda and Dakun: "From now on, block the surroundings and don't let anyone in or out!" ”
"Found it, apartment papers! The condominium was built 20 years ago and is still home to 16 households......"
A black-clad staff member rushed to the scene with a stack of papers.
"So little?"
Javi frowned: "Did something happen before?" ”
"Yes, there are some bad rumors in the apartment, so in recent times, the residents have moved out...... But in this community, this kind of thing is all too common......"
The staff bowed.
"Alas......"
Linda sighed: "Or are there too many weird cases recently...... It's too busy, and some small hidden dangers are overlooked. ”
"What kind of bad rumors?"
Dakun is looking at other aspects.
The strange law may be hidden in such an inconspicuous small detail.
"It is said that some residents have disappeared for no apparent reason...... But there are also people who suspect that they moved out directly to evade rent......" replied the staff wiping sweat.
After learning about the situation, Javi took Linda and Dakun into the sunset apartment.
The corridor is narrow, and there are a lot of sundries, which seems very closed.
There were disgusting yellow stains on the walls, and it seemed that no one had cleaned them for a long time.
The surrounding light was dim, and the red lacquered wooden doors were closed, and I didn't know what was hidden inside.
Javi looked at his black gloves.
It's a strange thing he wields, called the 'Silent One', which can create a silent area in addition to his common curse abilities.
For some weirdness that spreads and pollutes through sound, it has a good restraint effect.
"How?"
Linda asked.
"House by house."
Jia Wei's voice was low, and at this time, he especially missed Qingteng's ability.
……
Tong Mu went up to the fifth floor in one breath, his face was not red, his breath was not panting, showing the health and vitality of a young man.
He had a clear goal and skipped the process of inspection.
And, along the way, it doesn't seem to trigger any weirdness and curses.
I have to say, this kid is very lucky.
In other words, the ignorant is fearless, he has never heard of 'weird', and of course he doesn't know how terrible the real weird is.
Walking through a door, he looked at the nameplate, it was 501!
He skipped the next two rooms as well, and within a few steps, he stood in front of room 504.
"Next...... What to do? ”
He took out his notebook, held it in his hand, felt a little more confident, and began to knock on the door.
Knock knock!
Knock knock!
A low knock echoed in the hallway.
No response.
Tong Mu frowned and continued to knock on the door.
Click.
At this time, the door of the opposite room was opened, and an old man leaned out, and said impatiently: "Young man, what are you doing?" ”
"I ...... Come and find someone, he lives here. ”
Tong Mu took out the lies that he had made up a long time ago.
"Just kidding, old man, can I not know? This one is vacant and there are no people living in it at all! The old man's face immediately became vigilant and suspicious: "Who are you?" ”
Looking at his posture, it seems that Tong Mu is a thief.
"I ......"
Tong Mu's face was a little bitter, did he tell him that he was the messenger of justice to solve the evil spirit?
"Old man, who?"
At this time, another old woman came out.
"A young fellow......," the old man replied casually.
But Tong Mu felt that every pore on his body was tightening, and his mind was blank, as if he had been attacked by a heavy hammer.
This old woman bears a striking resemblance to the figure he saw that night.
"Notebook!"
He clenched the notebook in his hand, but found that he did not release his breath and drive the other party away like before.
"Are you...... Living? ”
Tong Mu lost his voice.
"How do you speak?" The old man was not happy and almost hit someone.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Tong Mu hurriedly apologized.
At this time, he suddenly heard a voice in room 504 behind him.
At first, it was a rustle, as if the radio was being tuned.
Immediately, it became a collection of all kinds of noise, full of grotesqueness and a sense of indescribability and incomprehension.
Suddenly, a chill came from his notebook, and he woke up.
At this time, Tong Mu was shocked to find that the old man and the old lady opposite suddenly had a green light in his eyes.
Their expressions were blank, and their turquoise eyes stared at him, making him feel as if he was back in the nightmare of that night!
"This ...... Whoever hears that noise will be infected and turn into something like a zombie? ”
Tong Mu's brain spun quickly: "Why am I okay?" Is it because of the notebook in your hand? ”
But at this time, the two people on the opposite side had already walked towards him.
Tong Mu gritted his teeth and hit the ...... hard The door of 504 in the back.
Bang!
A loud noise, echoing through the apartment building.
Jarvey, who had just checked the third floor, suddenly looked up: "Something is wrong! ”
The three of them also heard the grotesque noise, and each took out something strange to resist.
At this time, the door of the apartment opened, and one by one, the figures with stiff movements and green eyes walked out.
Jarvi didn't hesitate, and immediately used the strange thing in his right hand, and the black fist gauntlet slammed into it.
Quiet!
Dead Silence!
It's like a black-and-white silent movie, everything around is still running, but the 'sounds' are all gone.
The figures with green eyes were also still, like a humanoid statue.
"Sure enough...... Sound is key! Linda said loudly, but Dakun and Javi could only watch her keep opening and closing her closed lips, reading the meaning with her lips.
"The voice just now, on the fifth floor, go up together! At the moment we are safe! ”
Javi gestured with his hand and rushed forward first.
The silence range of the silent person is calculated based on him, so there is no need to worry about getting out of this range.
However, the duration is limited and must be resolved quickly.
They were so well trained that they rushed up to the fifth floor almost in the blink of an eye.
The scene on the fifth floor was different from what they imagined.
Several of the infected, who seemed to be fine at this point, fell to the ground and fainted.
In room 504, a lone figure stood by the window, with his back to them, as if looking at the sunset not far away.
Beside him, there was also a pile of fragments of the radio.
"I'm just a hero of interest, don't thank me!"
Tong Mu said lightly.
But he didn't know that at this time, due to the effect of the 'Silencer', this place could not make a sound.
Therefore, the trio of Javi didn't hear his pretending words at all, and directly pounced on him, pressing him to the ground like a prisoner.
Inside the notebook, Fang Xian rolled his eyes: "An idiot who is handsome for three seconds!" ”
