While Dong Ning continued to explain to the police, Dong Xie began to pay attention to that room.

There's a good chance that there will be clues.

Then, he patted Dong Ning's shoulder, covered his nose and said, "Ah Ning, this smell seems to come from there." Shall we go there and have a look? ”

Frankly, this stinks...... Let him suspect that it was issued after the corpse decomposed!

But now it's winter, and even Feng Yu, who died the earliest, shouldn't smell right now. What's more, the house was also clearly not directly above the one they entered on the 3rd floor.

Dong Ning looked at the door, nodded as well, and said, "Yes...... Oh, yes. Brother, let's take a look, shall we? ”

"Wait...... This isn't your home ...... either."

But Dong Xie didn't wait for the police to finish speaking, so he took Dong Ning's hand and rushed to the door. When he arrived at the door, he asked Ah Ning to stand behind him, held the doorknob, and then quickly opened it! By now that the Scarlet Word mission has arrived, his tolerance for terror has been greatly improved, and he is also mentally prepared, even if he sees Sadako Yamamura appearing inside, he will not feel scary.

The door opened......

The foul smell almost hit his nose, making Dong Xie almost vomit directly.

No matter how dirty the toilet was, he had never smelled such a disgusting stench! He immediately subconsciously covered his nose, then walked into the house, and at the same time turned his head and whispered to Dong Ning: "Don't come in, I'll go in alone." ”

Zhao Long's voice came from behind him: "Well, officer, don't worry too much, my younger brothers and sisters, I usually read a lot of mystery novels, so ...... Well, I want to ask you, who is the one who called the police? ”

Zhao Long apparently helped them drag the police so that Dong Xie and Dong Ning could probe the room.

After Dong Xie asked Dong Ning to help him guard the door at the door, he walked in. In this study, there is only one writing desk and a two-meter-high bookshelf. On the shelves, there are still many books on the table.

And the stench came from this bookshelf in front of me.

Dong Xie covered his nose and walked towards the bookshelf step by step.

At this point, his imagination as a horror novelist began to play again. Could it be that someone killed someone here in the past and sealed the body inside the wall, giving off a foul smell? Is this where the evil spirit comes from?

Dong Xie slowly walked to the bookshelf, fortunately there was a window in the study, so a trace of moonlight shone in.

The moonlight cast from this window made him feel a little more at ease.

Then, Dong Xie walked to the bookshelf.

"Hmm...... What are they? ”

Most of the books in the books are very old books, and he flipped through a few of them, and then found that the publication dates of these books are all from the 80s to 90s!

"Sure enough, it's the old man who lives here......" Dong Xie looked at the books in his hand, which were so old that they were almost scattered.

He put the book back and went back to it.

"Huh?"

He noticed that there was a striking crack in the upper side of the shelf.

"This ......"

He was about to take a closer look, when the moonlight outside suddenly brightened. It seems that the clouds that obscure the moon have dispersed.

Dong Xie himself has a height of 1.9 meters, so if he stands on tiptoe slightly, he can see the top side of the bookshelf. The crack was quite deep and very eye-catching.

Just then, the police walked in.

"Don't look around, this place could be the scene of a crime. Let's get out first. ”

"Hmm. All right. ”

Dong Xie had no choice but to walk out, and at this time, he suddenly noticed that Ah Ning's expression was obviously wrong.

Dong Ning pulled Dong Xie aside and said to him, "You ...... Didn't notice? ”

"What...... Meaning? ”

"In terms of the structure of the room, the location of the study is exactly in the ...... You see the right underside of the room where you see your eyes through a crack in the floor! ”

At this time, Dong Xie only felt a chill in his back!

"You...... Are you sure? ”

"I'm sure! However, I also thought of it when I just saw you enter the study. I wanted to pull you out, but then it occurred to me that it wasn't safe anywhere. In this, you may be able to get a clue to your life. ”

Dong Xie looked back at the study, and the stench came from there......

"Everything was arranged by the apartment. It just so happened that the upstairs room was open for us to enter. And then...... Let's ......"

Dong Xie felt like goosebumps all over his body at the moment.

In this dark room, that terrifying evil spirit could lurk at any time.

"The dead landlady is not the truly terrifying existence of this bloody mission, terrifying...... It's the old man holding the cat! ”

Among all the horror movies that Dong Xie watched in order to create horror novels, his favorite Western horror film was the Conjuring series directed by Wen Ziren, who is also a fan of the Cthulhu Mythos, among which he especially loved "The Conjuring 2", the first dead old man in the movie is a disguise used to paralyze the exorcist by the real horror existence behind the scenes, the evil spirit nun. The landlady is probably playing the role of the former. The landlady just appeared to force them into the house and make them have to be trapped here. When the door is closed, the coughing disappears. This can't be a coincidence.

This phenomenon should be the limit of the apartment.

At this time, the policeman was in the study. After all, it was the source of the stench, and he should have gone in just now to look for new clues.

Dong Xie felt that he needed to go to another room to take a closer look.

Next to it, only the kitchen and bathroom remain, as well as a bedroom. The bedroom door was wide open, and I don't know if it was the policeman who opened it.

Dong Xie walked over there with Dong Ning this time. Dong Xie pushed the door open slightly and looked inside. The windows in the bedroom are much larger, and the moonlight is much brighter at this time, so it is not very dark in the bedroom. This also increased the courage of a lot of Dong Xie.

However, the whole bedroom, there is only a bed and a cabinet, and the furniture is extremely simple.

And on that cabinet, there is a dressing mirror. Looking at that mirror, it's really a little frightening. In the countless horror novels written by Dong Xie himself, mirrors are the props he frequently uses to shape the atmosphere. Now, he can really get a feel for it.

However, Dong Xie was not at ease to let Dong Ning guard the door outside alone, and planned to let Zhao Long come over, but at this time, he heard Zhao Long walking into the study and chatting with the police: "Officer, how did your colleague disappear like this?" Sounds incredible. ”

"Forget it, just wait a minute."

At this moment, Dong Ning suddenly thought of something and looked at the location of the study.

"Wait a minute...... Brother. ”

"What's wrong?"

"I don't think it'...... right"

"What's wrong?"

Dong Ning had a thought in her mind, and then she quickly walked to the door of the room and turned the doorknob, but the door still couldn't be opened.

"What's wrong?" Dong Xie walked up to Dong Ning at this time and asked, "What the hell are you?" ”

Dong Ning slowly turned his head and looked in the direction of the study. Zhao Long was standing at the door, talking to the police inside, and the purpose of standing at the door was to prevent the door from locking automatically.

"It's me...... Think...... Too much...... Right? ”

Dong Xie looked at Dong Ning's face, and just wanted to ask what was wrong, when he heard a scream behind him! Then, when they looked back, they saw that the door to the study was shut! Inside, Zhao Long's screams came out!

"No!" Dong Ning's legs weakened and collapsed to the ground!

The policeman...... Not really a policeman!

He just said that "the mobile phone is not working, and you can't contact the police station". But in fact, the police usually use the police walkie-talkie, because the walkie-talkie can quickly establish communication compared to the mobile phone (the mobile phone needs to dial and connect with the other party) and unlike the mobile phone, it will be highly dependent on the base station, not to mention the remote suburbs where the signal itself will be relatively poor! If it was a real policeman, he should first use the walkie-talkie to contact the police station, not his mobile phone!

"You...... You're not a cop, you're ...... Ahh ”

In the study, Zhao Long's heart-rending howl was heard!

The door behind him won't open...... Dong Xie and Dong Ning realized that they were destined to die in this place!
