The elevator doors quickly closed and continued on the uphill line.

Shen Xing stood outside the elevator, and came back to his senses in some surprise, the performance of the man and woman in the elevator just now was obviously very strange, and he seemed to be a little unwilling to stay on the 7th floor.

Shen Xing pondered as he turned his head to look at his surroundings.

At this moment, the sky is gradually darkening, and the street lights on the street outside have been lit in advance, but the voice-activated lights in the corridor do not seem to have been triggered, and I don't know if it is broken or what.

It's quiet on this floor.

On the right side of the stairwell is the stairwell, but the door of the stairwell is now closed, and after a few steps on the left, there is a straight corridor, the corridor extends to both ends, one side is the door of the resident, and the other side is the corridor guardrail, and you can see the street downstairs when you lie on the guardrail.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and Shen Xing was standing in the corridor, and he could no longer see the specific objects at the ends of the two sides.

And it was so quiet on this floor, as if there was no one, and there was not a single sound coming from the surroundings.

The reason why Shen Xing chose to go to the 7th floor first was that he couldn't figure out whether the previous camera position was on the 7th or 8th floor, so he started to determine it from the 7th floor according to the elimination method.

If there was nothing suspicious on the 7th floor, he went straight up the stairwell to the 8th floor to continue checking.

But standing here now, it gives people a feeling of hairiness in their hearts, and this feeling makes Shen Xing can't help but be sure that maybe he doesn't have to go up to the 8th floor, there is something wrong with this floor.

Lying on the guardrail of the corridor, he looked at the direction of his house, looked over from here, and quickly found the direction of the Ivy Community, and then Shen Xing began to move towards the end of the corridor.

Because standing at this distance is obviously not enough, after reaching the end, that position feels like it can match the viewing distance in the video.

While moving, Shen Xing was also observing the movement in this building.

When he passed through the first closed door, he intuitively knew that there was no one living behind it.

However, when passing through the second door, although the door was also closed, there was a small sound of talking and the sound of dishes clattering lightly, and it was clear that the house was inhabited and seemed to be eating.

When passing through the third door, the door was still closed, but there were footsteps walking and someone coughing, proving that there were people inside.

It doesn't seem that there is no one living on this floor, as previously suspected, but these people are all closed, and none of them are open, so the hallway is too quiet.

Soon Shen Xing came to the end of the corridor.

There was also a house at the end, and the door was also closed, and no movement was heard.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and although the street lights were lit up more, so that the place was not completely plunged into darkness, Shen Xing's vision was still blocked.

He thought for a moment, stomped his foot slightly, and a voice-activated light came on overhead, the light was a little dim, but enough to illuminate the surroundings.

Shen Xing glanced back, in the huge corridor, only the light above his head was on, which looked extremely eye-catching, and he suddenly had a feeling that he wanted this light to go out quickly, so as not to attract the attention of an unknown eye in the dark.

Suddenly, he looked at the corner of the wall above his head near the outer wall.

It seems to have been installed with some kind of equipment before, but it has since been removed, leaving only a small metal frame hanging upside down, and on closer inspection, it should be possible to cram a camera probe in.

At this moment, the voice-activated lights suddenly went out, and the surroundings were suddenly plunged into darkness.

Shen Xing stomped his foot again, the lights came on again, and he continued to look up at the upside-down metal frame, and found that there was a faint trace of wires on the ceiling, but there were no wires anymore.

But the mark was noticeably cleaner than the rest of the surrounding area, and stretched all the way to the end of the hallway, above the doorway of the house, where there had been a patched hole in the wall, which was supposed to be the entrance into which the line once had been.

It seems that the previous surveillance video was placed from this house, and perhaps there were no residents here, but a company.

Thinking of this, Shen Xing took two steps forward, leaned in front of the closed door at the end of the corridor, and listened carefully, there was no movement inside, and I didn't know if there was anyone living there.

At that moment, the voice-activated lights went out again, and almost at the same moment, there was a creak and the sound of a certain door being opened.

However, the sound did not last long, but soon stopped, indicating that the door may have only opened a crack and not fully opened.

Shen Xing was stunned for a moment, if it was someone else, he would have goosebumps all over his body at this moment, but he didn't, but immediately recognized that the door that opened just now was not the one in front of him, but somewhere behind him.

He immediately turned around and clapped his hands lightly, and the voice-activated lights came on again.

When I looked at it, I saw the nearest security door behind me, which was open at this time, but only opened a crack in the door, and there was no movement at all.

Shen Xing didn't speak, let alone ask "who it is" at this time, but raised his foot, put it down gently, and took a step forward.

Before the second step was taken, the security door, which only opened a crack in the door, suddenly slammed and was pulled up from the inside.

This sudden sound made Shen Xing's body tremble coldly, and he looked surprised, but there was no movement behind the door.

After waiting for a while, there was still no sound.

His gaze became a little cold, staring coldly at the door for a moment, clenching his fists, the majestic power of his hands made him feel the urge to smash open the security door with a punch and see what was behind the door.

After standing there to calm down a little, he turned around and walked to the door at the end of the corridor, counted the time, and reached out and knocked on the door as soon as the voice-activated light went out.

The moment there was a knock on the door, the voice-activated light was also evoked again.

After waiting for a while, there seemed to be no movement in the house.

Shen Xing knocked on the door again, and increased his strength.

This time, after waiting for about ten seconds, there was a sound of footsteps in the room, so faint that if you hadn't listened deliberately, you might not have heard it at all.

Shen Xing took half a step back, and the sound of twisting the door lock sounded inside, and then the door was opened, but there was an anti-theft chain bolted inside the door, and the door was only half the size of a fist.

The head of a little boy about eight or nine years old leaned towards the door, and he looked at Shen Xing outside with some fear in his eyes.

"Who are you looking for?" A cowering voice came out of his mouth.

Shen Xing smiled and said, "Hello, little friend, I live across the street, are your parents there?" There's something to bother them about. ”

The little boy shook his head: "No. ”

"And when will they be back?" Shen Xing asked.

The little boy shook his head again and replied, "I don't know." ”

Shen Xing paused for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, if you are home alone, you have to close the door." If someone knocks on the door, you can choose not to answer, or you can answer directly in the house, but you don't have to open the door as you do now. ”

"Uh-huh, thank you, uncle!" The little boy closes the door.

He didn't move, but lay on his stomach at the door, listening to Shen Xing's footsteps step by step until he couldn't hear it anymore.

The little boy then turned around and walked down the dimly lit shoe-changing aisle into the room, which had been the living room with two beds, one smaller for him and the other for a larger one.

Diagonally opposite the bed is a large solid wood wardrobe.

There was only one bedside lamp turned on in the room, which was also dim.

As the little boy walked to his bed, a man's voice came from the kitchen: "Who was it just now?" ”

The boy paused, and said softly, "A stranger, he knocked on the wrong door." ”

There was a clatter of dishes in the kitchen and the sound of water flushing.

The little boy looked down at his electronic watch, and he suddenly became nervous, and quickly slipped into the bed, covering himself completely, leaving only a gap to stare outside.

In the bed, he still glanced at the electronic watch with the luminous function from time to time, and when it was almost eight o'clock, a man figure walked out at the kitchen door, his hands did not move, but he just moved his steps and walked to the wardrobe to stand still.

He slowly pulled open one of the closet doors, staring into it, never moving again.

In the silent room, the man was motionless, with his back to the little boy, unable to see his face clearly, revealing an inexplicable sense of strangeness.

The boy in the bed unconsciously shrunk his neck, and a layer of fine cold sweat broke out all over his body.
