Chapter 849: Candlelight Flickering in the Dark
Looking at the bright security room from a distance, the distance was too far, Lin Mo could only vaguely see a figure in the security room, it seemed to be an old man, but he couldn't see any movement from the other party.
The successive changes made Lin Mo realize that the changes in this community may be just the beginning, although the old security guard looks ordinary, but in fact, he can dare to stay on duty here, and he can accurately grasp the time and know when he should not stay outside.
If the security guard had slowed down a little earlier, he might have to miss the time when the lights went out in the entire community.
Say it's a coincidence?
Lin Mo didn't believe it, at this time, he was already chatting with this ordinary-looking security guard, learning from experience, and being pecked after all year round by hunting geese, but considering the age of the other party, Lin Mo was not too embarrassed this time.
Just as Lin Mo was about to go to the security room, the corner of his eyes swept a bright light.
Previously, Lin Mo had been paying attention to the crazy old lady's room on the fourth floor, because the sudden action of the old security guard, coupled with the unusually neat changes in the community, attracted Lin Mo's attention to the security guard's uncle.
That's why he ignored the observation of the old lady's room for a while, but when the light of the fire lit up, Lin Mo immediately turned his head and looked at the crazy old lady's room.
That's right, the dim light of the fire was lit up in the old lady's room, and the situation that Lin Mo had been waiting for finally appeared.
The footsteps stopped, Lin Mo's eyes fell on the window of the old lady's house, the dim light of the fire was very dim, even in such a dark campus, it was difficult to detect, as if someone was covering the candlelight.
If it weren't for Lin Mo's eyes, because he mastered the power of the black shadow, he would immediately integrate the power of the shadow he mastered into this darkness at the first time when the garden community changed.
And in the direction of the old lady's room, a lot of perception was also infused, so almost at the same time as the firelight was lit, Lin Mo had already noticed such a change, his eyes were firmly fixed on the window, and Lin Mo carefully identified the change in the firelight in the room.
The faint light of the fire flickered in the room, and then slowly moved, and there was silence around it, Lin Mo spread the power of the black shadow along the wall, turned into silk threads, and leaned towards the room on the fourth floor, wanting to further explore the situation in that room.
The power of the shadow is darkness, although in Zhang Ningxi's shadow, Lin Mo can see the situation outside through some methods, but since leaving Zhang Ningxi's shadow, Lin Mo can't use the power of the shadow to see the situation in other places.
However, he could hear some voices slightly, which also strengthened Lin Mo's perception to some extent.
Maybe it was the darkness's rejection of light, but Lin Mo didn't bother with such a thing, because the last time he was in the bookstore, Lin Mo saw the power of this shadow, and in the complete darkness, Lin Mo was the king of the darkness.
The silk threads of the shadows spread silently in the darkness, and soon they had penetrated into the old lady's room through the cracks in the window.
Lin Mo hadn't used this power before, just because with such power, the restrictions were still very large.
If it was in a place full of light, it would take more power to use the power of shadows, but at this time, Lin Mo's surroundings were pitch black, and there was no light at all, and even if there was, it was just moonlight.
It's just that the moonlight shines down, and it seems that this garden complex is blocked by some kind of force, and the place where there should be light is still gray, just a little stronger than the complete darkness.
Soon, the shadow that turned into silk threads had entered the crazy old lady's house, and Lin Mo listened attentively, carefully identifying the voices in the room.
"Click, click, click..."
"Zi La La"
"Click..."
There were several sounds in the room, and Lin Mo carefully distinguished, wanting to know what kind of sound it was.
"The sound of the water, the sound of the flame burning, the sound of footsteps, the sound of the flame burning and the sound of the footsteps are very close, it may be that the old lady is holding a candle, but listening to this sound, it seems to..."
Lin Mo opened his eyes, quietly shifted a direction, and focused his gaze on the window in the safe passage.
Judging from the footsteps, the old man should be walking towards the door, the footsteps were a little heavy, but they were very steady.
There was a sound of rubbing, the sound seemed to be paper rubbing, which made Lin Mo slightly curious, through the sound, he could feel that the old man should be holding something, because there was a slight difference in the footsteps of the left and right feet.
Coupled with the sound of paper rubbing, it was clear that the old man should be holding something made of paper.
"Is she coming out?"
At this time, Lin Mo had already confirmed that this crazy old lady was not really crazy, with such a calm footstep, there was almost no big difference in every step falling, and a crazy person might be able to do such a thing.
But with a candle in one hand and something in the other, a madman wouldn't have done such a thing.
Silently paying attention to the window of the safe passage, Lin Mo was waiting, and sure enough, it didn't take long for a little bit of extremely faint fire to appear in the staircase passage, Lin Mo's face showed a hint of joy, he didn't expect this old man to come out at this time.
The other party dared to come out at this time, obviously, there should be something that needs to be done, even if there is nothing to do, the old man will at least go downstairs.
The old man went downstairs and left her home, giving Lin Mo the opportunity to contact her, the old man hid a lot of things, this old man at least maintained kindness to Lin Mo, and when he saw Lin Mo for the first time, he quickly reminded Lin Mo to leave this community.
And the security guard, although he reminded Lin Mo to stay away from Lu Qian, and told Lin Mo about Lu Qian, but the other party wanted to help Lin Mo rent another house in the garden community, instead of letting Lin Mo leave here completely.
What is the purpose of the security uncle, Lin Mo is not clear, the other party is hiding the things in this community, Lin Mo is not very surprised, after all, there is no one, it is necessary to tell another person all the secrets.
Because of a pack of cigarettes?
Is a pack of cigarettes worth anything? How much is it worth?
Even for a security guard, it's just a little bit of an addition, and it's not enough to exchange for a secret.
If you really tell a stranger everything and all your secrets because of a pack of cigarettes, it can only show that this so-called secret has no value at all, and under normal circumstances, it will not be called a secret.
The silk thread spread out of the shadow has entered the safe passage with the footsteps of the old man, in the corridor, the footsteps are quite calm, the faint light of the fire is slowly descending, and the old man is slowly walking down the stairs.
Lin Mo hid in the dark, quietly observing, and did not rush forward to make any contact with the old man.
The first thing to know now is what this old man wants to do, the other party will come out in this situation, obviously there is something to do.
The old security guard had already hid in the security room, but this crazy old lady still dared to come out at this time, which could only explain a few problems, or the other party had some way to avoid the danger hidden in the darkness in this garden community.
Either that, or something, the old man had to do even if he took a risk.
What he needs to do now is to observe quietly, other things, there is no need to do it at all, do more wrong, do less wrong, not what he doesn't need to do, but, now is not the time.
Figuring out the secret of the garden community, or the secret of Lu Qian's family, the connection between this old man and Lu Qian's family, and figuring out why this matter involved him is the most important thing for Lin Mo to do now.
This crazy old lady is a breakthrough for Lin Mo to understand all this, and now that the old man has left the room and gone downstairs to do something, it has given Lin Mo an excellent opportunity.
