1077 Who is the murderer? (4000)
Wen Qing looked at the two people in the room, she was very big.
In such a weird and terrifying place, Chen Ge and Uncle Huang didn't have any abnormal behavior, and she didn't know if she hadn't seen the market and made too much fuss, or if the cognitive level of those two had completely exceeded the scope of normal people.
After hesitating for a long time, Wen Qing finally walked into the house, she didn't dare to sit down, just stood behind Chen Ge.
Uncle Huang sat on the sofa, he didn't seem to care about Chen Ge at all, he slowly closed his eyes, his body seemed to grow together with the sofa, and he grew together in the real sense.
No one bothered, and Chen Ge also took this rare opportunity to look around.
This room has a different architectural layout from the other rooms, it is much smaller than a normal room, the kitchen and bathroom are together, and there is only one bedroom and living room.
"Compared with Wen Qing's house, this room has one less bedroom and kitchen area."
Chen Ge suspected that the source of the smell was from the missing room, so he sat on the sofa for a while, during which he took the time to study the blood on the sofa.
Strange to say, when Chen Ge sat on the sofa, those bloodshots were just decorations, but when Uncle Huang sat on the sofa, those bloodshots came to life like little snakes, crawling on the smudge-covered sofa skin, looking extremely terrifying.
"Uncle Huang can be recognized by the bloodshot hidden under the stains in the house, and they only show another appearance in front of Uncle Huang."
Chen Ge didn't know much about the relationship between Xuexi and Uncle Huang, he wanted to try to ask Uncle Huang, but Uncle Huang seemed to be asleep, the wrinkles on his face were tightly wrinkled, he didn't say a word, and his body was deeply sunk in the sofa.
"Chen Ge, Uncle Huang probably can't help us like this." Wen Qing was a little angry, she had great hopes for Uncle Huang before she came, but unfortunately, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
"You told me before that the house where Uncle Huang lives was rented to him by his boss, right?"
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Then who did you and him move to this neighborhood first?" Chen Ge asked the next question.
"When Xiang Nuan and I moved here, Uncle Huang had been living here for a while. His boss is also very good, knowing that Uncle Huang has nowhere to go, so he rented the house to him at a very low price. ”
"Uncle Huang was injured at work, do you know how much his boss paid him at that time?"
"I don't know much about this, after all, it's Uncle Huang's private matter." Wen Qing didn't understand why Chen Ge was asking this.
"So in the room, only the layout of this room is different from the other rooms, missing the size of a kitchen and bedroom......" Chen Ge walked around the room, his hand sliding on the wall skin, and finally stopped next to the wall next to the master bedroom: "According to the architectural layout of your home, there should be a door here that leads to another bedroom." ”
The fingertips tapped the skin of the wall, and there were some black-red smudges left in the nails: "The surface is painted with a layer of white paint, and the inside is all this black-red dirt." ”
The main reason why Chen Ge was able to find this place was because of the stench, a stench that seemed to be something that only he could smell.
Since he entered Uncle Huang's room, he has been looking for the source of the smell, but he has not found it.
"The stench is coming in from the other side of the wall."
Chen Ge glanced back, Uncle Huang was still shrunk in the sofa, it seemed that no matter what he did, Uncle Huang would not wake up.
"There's a hidden room here, and that's where the smell in the uncle's room comes from." Fingers kept tapping, the skin of the walls was damp and fluffy, and there were no bricks or cement in the walls, just that black-red unknown.
Half of Chen Ge's fingers had already sunk into the wall, and the touch from his fingertips gradually changed, as if he had touched the thin wall of a blood vessel.
Retracting his fingers, Chen Ge used his pupils to look into the small hole.
In the middle of the wall were intricate things like blood vessels, and between the gaps of those "blood vessels", Chen Ge also saw an eye.
"Corpses over the wall?" Opening the backpack, Chen Ge silently took out the skull crusher hammer from the bag.
"What do you want to do?!"
"Smash it through."
"We've only been in for less than five minutes, and the owner is still sleeping."
"So there's never been a better time to get your hands dirty."
"Are you sure you want to do that?" Wen Qing felt that Chen Ge was too irrational, and this would definitely offend Uncle Huang, and he would have one more enemy for no reason.
While the two were talking, Uncle Huang, who was trapped in the sofa, seemed to have regained some strength, and he turned his head to look at it with great difficulty: "Haven't you left yet?" ”
Seeing that Uncle Huang woke up, Chen Ge stuffed the skull crusher hammer into his backpack without a trace: "Uncle, your house is rented, right?" ”
"Well, the owner's family doesn't live here, and I stay here to help them watch the house, which happens to give me a place to live." Uncle Huang's tone of voice has not changed from before, he seems to speak like this no matter what he encounters, and he will never change.
"Understood." Chen Ge nodded.
"If nothing else, I won't leave you behind, I want to go to the bedroom to rest." Uncle Huang stood up slowly, all the blood vessels on the sofa returned to normal, and everything weird happened as if it had never happened.
Trembling his body, Uncle Huang walked to the side of the bedroom, he coughed a few times, as if because his body was too weak, his hand held on to the door frame, and one of his fingers lightly tapped the wall next to the bedroom door a few times.
"When you go, help me close the door, I'm getting tired lately, you can ask the landlord if you want anything, he lives on the top floor. However, the landlord is not very good-tempered, so be careful when you ask. Uncle Huang, whose tone had never changed, spoke in a slightly heavier voice at the end, and he seemed to be emphasizing the word caution.
"Then we won't bother, if you have any clues, or see the child, you can contact us at any time, we are in this building."
Chen Ge dragged Wen Qing away from Uncle Huang's house, and helped Uncle Huang close the door when he left.
"I found out that you really want to make a play, you were about to smash the wall just now, and now you are saying that you will leave, we finally found Uncle Huang, at least we should pester him to ask for something." Wen Qing said very regretfully: "He has been living here, and he knows more about some secrets of the community than I do, so you wasted such a good opportunity, why did you suddenly smash the wall?" I feel that Uncle Huang is scared by you. ”
"You've only seen the first layer." Chen Ge didn't elaborate, he glanced back at Granny Li, just now he and Wen Qing entered Uncle Huang's house, but Granny Li, who had been following them, didn't dare to go in, just stood guard outside the door.
"Why don't we go and ask Uncle Huang again?"
"No need." There were some things that Chen Ge couldn't say directly, and he found that Uncle Huang didn't want to help them, but he didn't dare to help them directly.
When they first met Uncle Huang, Chen Ge and Wen Qing were both taken aback by Uncle Huang's appearance, and frankly said that Uncle Huang looked very scary, and his face was full of bite marks, which made people not want to get close when they saw it.
At that time, Chen Ge began to wonder if Uncle Huang inside the door was different from outside the door, this old man actually had a dark and terrible side.
With his terrifying appearance and the pungent stench in the house, it was normal for Chen Ge to make such an inference, but then he gradually discovered that this was not the case.
When he proposed to enter Uncle Huang's house to check, Uncle Huang decisively agreed, although he spoke very slowly, but from the tone of his speech, there was no sense of refusal, as if Uncle Huang also hoped that someone could enter his house as a guest.
What is there to visit in a stinking, weird, dirty home for an elderly man living alone?
After entering the house, Uncle Huang's behavior was normal and normal, but it always made Chen Ge feel a little strange.
Uncle Huang collapsed on the sofa and closed his eyes directly, he didn't care what the two strangers in the family would do.
This made Chen Ge not quite understand, he felt that Uncle Huang was deliberately indulging them to observe his home.
Chen Ge did see the problem, he found that the building area of the house was not right, and there might be two hidden rooms in the house.
Later, when Chen Ge was about to smash the wall for verification, Uncle Huang woke up "just rightly", although he didn't say a word, it can indeed be seen that he stopped Chen Ge.
If he hadn't woken up, Chen Ge might have smashed the wall.
On the surface, Uncle Huang may be worried that the secrets in the house will be exposed, but if he thinks deeper, he is not protecting Chen Ge and Wen Qing by doing this, and preventing them from tearing their faces with the residents in the building too early.
Later, a small detail of Uncle Huang also made Chen Ge more sure of his speculation, when Uncle Huang walked behind the bedroom door, his fingers lightly tapped the wall next to him a few times, and his fingers were on the same level as the hole that Chen Ge buckled.
Uncle Huang probably wanted to tell Chen Ge in this way, and Chen Ge guessed that it was right, there was indeed something inside the wall.
He couldn't say it, and he didn't dare to say it, so he could only remind Chen Ge in this way.
"Uncle Huang should be a good person, but how can a good person survive inside the door? What did he rely on to survive? ”
Chen Ge suddenly remembered what Wen Qing had said before, after Uncle Huang had a work injury, he found himself a job to go to the morgue to see the corpse and clean up.
"Could it be all corpses behind that wall? Uncle Huang is a corpse keeper? ”
Uncle Huang's last sentence mentioned the landlord, and he also focused on asking them to be careful and think about it, Chen Ge's eyes slowly widened.
"Has Uncle Huang been helping the landlord guard the corpse?"
Chen Ge himself was shocked by this conclusion he had reached, he didn't dare to tell anyone about it, and silently remembered it in his heart.
"From this point of view, the most dangerous person in this building is the landlord, and maybe the tragedy of the whole building is related to the landlord."
There were so many terrible things happening in his residential building, and the landlord must have been one of those who knew about it, but he didn't come out to stop it.
"Maybe the real landlord is dead, and there is a family of landlords buried behind the wall."
Grasping the backpack, Chen Ge had a plan in his heart: "Wen Qing, let's go to the landlord now, he has the key to get out, and he should know best whether Xiang Nuan has left this building or not." ”
"Okay."
Wen Qing didn't know Chen Ge's true thoughts, in fact, Chen Ge was ready to make a move on the landlord now, and the landlord didn't know about the existence of him and Wen Qing now, so he could make a surprise attack with the highest success rate.
After discussing, Chen Ge and Wen Qing were about to enter the corridor when a scream suddenly came from upstairs.
"What's wrong?"
"Don't worry, we need to keep ourselves safe first."
Not only Chen Ge and Wen Qing heard the voice in the building, but many tenants also heard the voice.
After the screams rang out, the sound of the security door being opened kept coming from the small building, and it seemed that many people had walked out of their homes.
"That voice seems to be coming from the fifth floor."
Chen Ge, Wen Qing, and Granny Li slowly walked upstairs, and when they reached the third floor, they happened to see the middle-aged man with women's underwear hidden in the house also walking out of the house.
After a brief hello, several people walked up together.
"How did he come out of the house too? He wasn't like a zealous person. ”
When he came to the fifth floor, Chen Ge found that many people had already arrived in the corridor, including college student Xiao Sun, Aunt Ding, etc.
Five or six people gathered around the door of room 504, whispering, not knowing what was being discussed.
"What's going on?" Chen Ge asked Xiao Sun softly.
"Someone was killed! It's at 504! Xiao Sun's face was pale, and it seemed that he had encountered such a thing for the first time.
"Homicide?" Chen Ge looked towards 504, the living room was full of bloodstains, and the walls were full of terrifying patterns drawn with blood.
All the furniture was splattered with blood, and a girl was sitting in a pool of blood, crying as she held the body of a middle-aged man.
"The scream was made by the girl?"
"I just came over, too." Xiao Sun put his hand in front of his face and looked through his fingers.
Wen Qing also wanted to go over to look, but was stopped by Chen Ge: "Someone is dead, there is blood everywhere, you should be mentally prepared before you see it." ”
Just listening to Chen Ge's description, Wen Qing couldn't stand it a little: "It has nothing to do with Xiang Nuan, right?" ”
"No, the deceased was a middle-aged man."
"Then I won't look at it."
"Wait a minute, don't talk nonsense, the situation is very wrong now." Chen Ge lowered his voice: "The iron door of the corridor is locked, the key is in the landlord's hand, if the murderer is not the landlord, then he should still be in this building, and he may be by our side." ”
Wen Qing understood what Chen Ge meant, and stood with Chen Ge very carefully.
"The residents of the building have their own rules, and the death of this middle-aged man has alarmed all the neighbors, and it doesn't look like the tenants in the building did it. If the tenants in the building are excluded, the people who dare to openly violate the rules of the building should be outsiders except the landlord. ”
Thinking of this, Chen Ge looked at the patterns drawn with blood in the house, and he found that most of these patterns were related to curses, and he had seen similar paintings in Liwan Town and the Old Town.
