Chapter 872: Exploring the Garden Community (2)

When Lu Qian and another woman walked into Unit 4, Lin Mo quietly followed behind the two, and when the two walked up to the elevator, they saw that there was only an indicator light on the 4th floor, and then turned around and walked up the stairs.

Soon Lin Mo also reached the 4th floor, and the two women walked out of the elevator and walked side by side towards Lu Xi's house, looking at the woman's appearance, it didn't look like she came to Lu Xi's house for the first time.

Secretly vigilant in his heart, Lin Mo came to the crazy old lady's house, and manipulated the shadow to spread along the crack in the door to the door lock, Lin Mo found that the door of the old lady's house was not locked, just like what he saw yesterday.

A trace of black shadow spread along his feet to the door of Lu Xi's house, blocking the cat's eye, Lin Mo then dodged into the old lady's house, and while closing the door, he withdrew the power of that shadow.

Although the time was only more than eight o'clock in the evening, the old lady's house was already dark, the old man did not turn on the light, and Lin Mo would not rashly turn on the light at this time.

Standing at the door for a little adaptation, Lin Mo walked into the old man's house.

The room was quiet and quiet, empty and not like it was inhabited, the black paper lantern was not seen at the door, and the living room was empty, and there was no old man, Lin Mo's gaze naturally fell on the closed door of the room.

"It should be the old man's bedroom, this is the room that the old man entered yesterday, and now it is estimated that the time has not yet come out."

Thinking so in his heart, Lin Mo was not in a hurry, his footsteps moved, without making any sound, and quietly came to the sofa and sat down, without making any sound.

Lin Mo has to wait here for two hours, before eleven o'clock, the crazy old lady will definitely prepare the black paper lantern, because the agreement between the two has been reached, no, it should be said that it is a transaction, although Lin Mo's side has not yet been completed, but the old man of the black paper lantern must borrow it.

There was no sound in the room, maybe it was because the sound insulation of the door in that room was good, or maybe it was for some other reason, Lin Mo sat in the living room, even if he listened carefully, he didn't hear any sound in the fingers of the room.

The power of the shadow was spread by Lin Mo to every corner of the room, even if it was not the first time to enter this room, but this room was still a strange place for Lin Mo.

Especially in the room where the old man was, what was hidden in it, Lin Mo didn't know at all.

Despite this, Lin Mo did not spread the shadow into that room, the idea of probing the other party's secrets, everyone has secrets, not all secrets have to be explored, he is now in a cooperative relationship with the old lady, and he will not destroy the current situation because of a little curiosity.

And Lin Mo had a faint feeling that if he spread the power of the black shadow into that room, there was a great chance that he would be discovered by the old lady who was pretending to be crazy and stupid.

Time passed minute by minute, long wait, and when the time reached half past ten in the evening, it was finally considered to be the past, and the door of the room, which had been closed, slowly opened a gap at half past ten, and a somewhat rickety figure walked out of the room.

In the darkness, I couldn't see the specific appearance of the old man, but I could see the old man holding an unlit paper lantern with the help of the faint light from the window.

"Hmph, you're here early!"

The old man snorted, his tone was inexplicable, obviously he had already discovered that Lin Mo had entered her house.

"Hehe, I'm not in a hurry, and I haven't seen you for so long, I miss you so much."

Lin Mo said directly with a hippie smile, and there was some intimacy between the words, not like two people who only talked about transactions were communicating.

"You... Alas, forget it, the paper lantern is here, you take it. ”

The old lady sighed, her original momentum suddenly froze, and then dissipated into nothing, it seemed that the tone of Lin Mo's speech evoked the old man's memories, those embarrassing memories made the old man's mood a little low.

The black paper lantern was put aside by the old man and was not handed over directly to Lin Mo.

"You wait until eleven o'clock, and then go out from here, and don't open the door until you hear any sound in the hallway, and remember, this black paper lantern can only last an hour, don't run out of time."

After a faint explanation, the old man didn't say anything more, turned around and walked towards the room, looking like he was preparing to wait for Lin Mo to leave in the room.

"Old man, I have already found a way to check the things you explained, and within three days, I will definitely give you an answer, if he is still here, do you want to see him?"

Seeing the old man's somewhat depressed back, Lin Mo thought of the old man's transaction with him, and asked such a question.

Hearing Lin Mo's words, the old lady's footsteps were stunned, even in such a dimly lit room, she could feel the stiffness of the old man's body, obviously she didn't expect Lin Mo to mention her son's matter at this time.

"No need, help him go over as soon as possible after finding him, people and ghosts have different paths, there is no need to meet again."

There was a slight melancholy in his voice, and the weather-beaten tone made people sigh when they heard it, and then the old man walked into the room without stopping, and closed the door tightly.

"Don't you meet?"

The old man left the living room, while Lin Mo, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at the closed door and was a little distracted.

"It seems that there are things here, I hope there will be no unexpected twists and turns in this matter~"

Said this quietly, Lin Mo did not deliberately lower his voice, it seemed that he was just sighing, but in fact, he wanted the old man in the room to hear, although the sound was not loud, and it was separated by a door, but Lin Mo believed that the old man inside must know what he was talking about at this time.

This old lady is no ordinary person.

got up and took the black paper lantern in his hand, and what was put down with the black paper lantern was just a very ordinary lighter.

Picked up the paper lantern, took the lighter, quietly walked to the balcony, and glanced into the paper lantern by the faint light, in the container that should have contained the lamp oil, Lin Mo saw a dark and thick liquid, as if some animal fat was mixed with some other things.

Approaching the hole above the paper lantern, Lin Mo smelled the smell inside, the smell of the lamp oil was not easy to ask, so it was pungent, and it seemed to be the smell of something rotting, and the smell of asking made people's minds swell slightly.

Hurriedly moved his nose away from the top of the paper lantern, and when he looked at the black paper lantern again, Lin Mo's face became a little more solemn.

"I don't know how this oil was made, but it must have been mixed with something not very good, and I don't know what it got from the corpse."

Just now, Lin Mo asked from there a rotten smell, it was precisely because of that smell that Lin Mo knew that this thing as lamp oil was not an ordinary grease, but now Lin Mo didn't know how this lamp oil was made.

Looking up at the direction of the old man's room, the corners of Lin Mo's mouth were hooked, meaning inexplicable.

"There is a smell of rot in the lamp oil, but there is no strange smell in the room, and in this house, I don't smell any rot, which is a little strange, it is very likely that this lamp oil was not put at home by the old lady, it seems that this is to prevent me~"

This is not a big deal, but it made Lin Mo have a guess, this lamp oil may not have been prepared by this old lady, but if this kind of thing is not blended, the old man has been staying in the room during the day, how did he get it?

With doubts in his heart, Lin Mo secretly remembered this matter, and did not ask the old lady, but slowly walked to the door of the room with a lantern.

Just now, there was a slight sound in the corridor, as if someone had walked out of a certain room, and was walking in the corridor at this time, the sound of the door closing was not small, not far away, and the nearest home to the old man's house was Lucy's home.
