The snow-white landlord's eyes flashed.

Even if the old man's eyes were no longer bright at this age, Gu Mian could see the emotion in her eyes.

The landlord hesitated: "I know, Xiao Gu, you should think that my house is not clean, but I can tell you that there has never been a dead person on this building, not a single one, but as soon as you say the knock on the door, I remember one thing......"

Qing Huan looked at her intently, waiting for the following.

"Two years ago, there was indeed a tenant who died, but he didn't die in my house, it was a man in his early thirties, named Zhao Wen, who died unexpectedly and died outside"

"At that time, he was still renting my house, and he was found dead in the hotel outside, as if he had starved to death, and his body was stinky when he was found."

Gu Mian asked, "Then what does this dead Zhao Wen have to do with the knock on the door?" ”

The landlord then spoke slowly: "This is about why he rented my house and moved out."

"That Zhao Wen is a young and vigorous young man, only in his early thirties, and he was very active when he moved here, jumping up and down all day long."

"But it's not been a month since he died, and I don't know why, I watched him emaciated, lose a lot of weight, and have no strength to move around."

"Until one time he secretly asked me if there was anyone dead in the house I rented to him, of course not, if there was a dead person, I wouldn't hide it from him"

"Then he told me that I always heard strange knocks in the middle of the night, but there was no one outside."

"It didn't take long for him to call a few of his friends to come and live with him, but no one could hear the knock on the door except him, and he couldn't sleep every night because of this, and then he was probably so frightened that he didn't even leave the house, so he hurried home to live, and his house was not far from here."

"I haven't heard from him for a while"

"Less than two months later, I heard his neighbors talking about the young man's death, alas."

When the landlord said this, Qing Huan's expression was a little strange.

He stiffly twisted his neck to look at Gu Mian, so was it really a ghost who knocked on Doctor Gu's door last night? So last night Dr. Gu really scolded that ghost?

Gu Mian didn't care too much, but continued to ask: "Do you think Zhao Wen's death has anything to do with the knock he said?" ”

The landlord shook his head: "I don't know about this, he seems to have gone home to live for a while, you can ask his family for the specific situation, I should still have his family's phone number here...... Stayed when renting a house for registration. ”

She said as she stood up and walked to a nearby table, then reached for a key to open the drawer.

At this time, Gu Mian suddenly spoke again: "By the way, is the house where Zhao Wen lived at that time the same as the house I live in now?" ”

The landlord shook his head: "No, I haven't rented that house to anyone else since he died."

"Although I think the knock on the door was his own imagination, he didn't continue to rent out the room, anyway, my building is always rented, and it doesn't matter if it's always empty."

"It wasn't until you came to me today that I felt strange, could it be that what Zhao Wen's kid said was true......

The landlord said as he pulled out a thick notebook from a drawer.

It was a yellow-skinned notebook, the paper was very thin, not much thicker than toilet paper, and a few pieces of paper fell off in the middle, and they were re-glued with tape.

She took her reading glasses and flipped through them carefully, and after a while she stopped: "I found it, there is his home phone number......"

In '02, there were still a large number of people who did not have a personal mobile phone, but they generally had a landline at home.

Gu Mian copied the landline number of Zhao Wen's house to say goodbye to the landlord, and then took Qing Huan out of the door.

Qing Huan followed closely behind Gu Mian: "Doctor Gu, then Zhao Wen was killed by the ghost who knocked on the door, right?" ”

"It should be."

"So we who are targeted by those ghosts, will we all die like Zhao Wen......"

Thinking of this, Qing Huan shuddered, those ghosts had been killing people all the time, and he didn't know how many cursed people they were.

Gu Mian patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, I'm ......"

Qing Huan looked up at him with some emotion.

Gu Mian then spoke: "Anyway, as long as I don't die, we won't be wiped out." ”

“……”

Zhao Wen's family phone was still in use, and when Gu Mian called, it was a not young woman who answered the phone.

"Hello?" A voice came from the other side.

"Hello" Gu Mian asked, "Is it Zhao Wen's family?" ”

Wen Yan on the other side obviously paused, and only after a few seconds did he speak in a somewhat skeptical tone: "You are ......"

"We are from the Supernatural Events Investigation Bureau, and we noticed that a deceased person may have died of a supernatural event a few years ago, it is Zhao Wen, I hope you can assist us in the investigation" Gu Mian paused: "Give money." ”

Things went well, and Gu Mian and the others found Zhao Wen's home address without any obstacles.

Zhao Wen's house is not far from the Hongsheng apartment where Gu Mian lives, and it can be reached within an hour's walk, which is a somewhat old family building.

The house was small, but it was clean, and only a woman approaching forty years old was at home at this time.

She poured two glasses of water and handed them to the two on the couch.

"I am Zhao Wen's sister Zhao Meixiang" The woman looked at Gu Mian hesitantly: "Are you ...... Doctor? ”

"Hmm" Gu Mian nodded: "The members of our Supernatural Investigation Bureau all have a main business, so you don't have to worry too much." ”

Zhao Meixiang retracted her gaze at this time: "You are here to investigate my brother, in fact, you don't need to give money, my sister has always wanted to find out why my brother died." ”

When she talked about Zhao Wen, her face sank and she looked sad.

"I only have this one younger brother, we have been very close since we were children, I didn't expect him to leave so suddenly. He's gone, Mom and Dad are also old, they're so sad, they've followed him for the past two years......"

Zhao Meixiang wiped her tears as she spoke: "Just ask whatever you want, I will definitely tell you everything I know." ”

Since she said so, Gu Mian also asked directly: "I heard Zhao Wen's landlord say that he could always hear the knock on the door for a while, did Zhao Wen mention it to you after he came back?" ”

Zhao Meixiang nodded: "At that time, he was working in the factory, not far from my house, I wanted him to live here, but he refused."

"At that time, I was already married, and it was not a problem to live at home with my younger brother, so he went out and rented a house to live"

"But after not staying for a month, he came back in a hurry, and he didn't even bring back his luggage, and I asked him what happened, and he didn't say anything, just panicked and lived in our empty house......"

"I was quite worried about him, and the next day I saw that he was delayed, so I went to his house to look for him."

"When I went in, he was still in the quilt, shrunk into a very small ball, and I felt that something was not right, so I lifted the quilt, and then I saw that his face was so white, and his eyes were so big."

"I was startled and quickly asked him what was going on, and he looked up with a white face and asked me ......"

"Did you knock on my door yesterday?"
