Chapter 17: Her Call
As soon as I got back to the teahouse, I got a call from her, my ex-girlfriend.
She said that she was going to participate in a variety show recently and needed my help.
I said, okay.
Not long after hanging up her phone, I received a call from the program team.
The program team introduced me to their program.
The name of their show is very simple, just two words - hell.
Hell, the main form of this variety show is that celebrities and amateurs go to various haunted houses or secret places and live for a day or two nights.
She and I were the first guests of the hell.
The identity assigned to me by the program team is a folklore enthusiast.
Listen to the program team, after that, they will also invite scientists and veteran special forces...... Amateurs of various professions, with different stars, record shows together.
They believe that their show will definitely be a hit.
I asked the program team, can this kind of program be broadcast above?
The program team said, let me rest assured, their investors are very energetic and can do anything, and their show is an online variety show, not a TV variety show, and the management above is not so strict.
Since the program team has already said so, I can't say anything more.
Two days later, at noon, I went to S City according to the request of the program team.
S City is one of the largest cities in the country, not far from H City, and the high-speed rail will be there in more than an hour.
As soon as I got out of the high-speed rail station in S City, I met the people in the program team.
A young man of twenty-four or five years old, holding a sign.
The sign has two big words written on it - hell.
He saw me and waved at me.
Before coming to S City, I sent a photo of me to the program team, so it's not surprising that he knows me.
He was very welcoming, took my suitcase and took me into a black car.
In the car, he introduced himself and said that he was an assistant to the director of the program team.
This time, my ex-girlfriend and I are going to a murderous house in S City.
It is said that it is a murderous house, but it is actually not very big, only more than 50 square meters, and it is a typical one-bedroom apartment.
Ten years ago, in July 2008, Zhou Chengming had just graduated from university, and he came to S City with his girlfriend, Tang Yanrong.
At that time, near Xuhui, the rent of a one-bedroom apartment was almost more than 2,000 yuan, and one was paid for three.
This also means that when renting a house, you need to pay 10,000 yuan at a time for the first time.
10,000 yuan, which was a big burden for Zhou Chengming, who had just graduated at the time.
Occasionally, by chance, Zhou Chengming saw on the Internet that a one-bedroom apartment in a community in Xuhui was rented, and the landlord rented it directly, without an intermediary, and it was only 1,800 a month.
When he saw this information, Zhou Chengming instinctively felt that it was abnormal, but this 1,008, a rent much lower than the market price, was too tempting for him.
He made an appointment with the landlord.
The landlord was in his early thirties, a painter, and had the artist's signature long hair.
Zhou Chengming took his girlfriend Tang Yanrong and the landlord to see the house together.
The house was very clean and renovated as new.
The landlord said that after the renovation, he lived for two years and then moved out, and it has been empty for three or four years, and he has been a little short of money recently, so he wants to rent it out and get some pocket money.
Zhou Chengming was very satisfied with the house, chatted with the landlord for a few words, and felt that the landlord was not a lie, so he signed a contract with the landlord and paid more than 7,000 on the spot.
After reading the signing contract several times, Zhou Chengming's worried heart for fear of being deceived settled down.
Being able to rent such a one-bedroom apartment at such a low price, Zhou Chengming was very happy in his heart, and felt that he had picked up a leak.
The next day, he moved in with his girlfriend.
The first few days of moving in were fine, nothing strange.
Almost a week later, in the middle of the night, Zhou Chengming was woken up by the lamp in the bedroom.
Zhou Chengming remembered that before he went to bed, he had turned off the light.
However, he didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was just a bad circuit contact, so he turned off the lights and continued to sleep.
After all, this was the first time that something strange had happened, and Zhou Chengming didn't know at that time, and there were even more terrifying things waiting for him in the future.
Another two or three days passed.
For two or three days, everything was normal.
The light in the bedroom was never turned on again, and Zhou Chengming gradually forgot about it.
However, in the middle of the night, Zhou Chengming's girlfriend was awakened by the sound of water dispensing from the water dispenser, which was the sound of "gurgling".
Zhou Chengming's girlfriend shook Zhou Chengming awake.
Zhou Chengming listened to the sound of the water dispenser "gurgling",
The face is green.
Because there's no fucking water in the bucket of the water dispenser!
This water dispenser was left by the landlord and has not been used for three or four years.
After Zhou Chengming and his girlfriend moved in, they thought the water dispenser was not clean, so it was useless.
The water they drink is boiled in an electric kettle.
Zhou Chengming immediately turned on the light.
At the moment when Zhou Chengming turned on the light, the sound of the water dispenser suddenly disappeared.
As soon as Zhou Chengming turned off the light, the voice appeared again.
Zhou Chengming tried several times, and it was always like this.
Zhou Chengming's girlfriend reminded Zhou Chengming that it would be sent by other electrical appliances.
Zhou Chengming immediately felt that it made sense.
He remembered that the lights in the bedroom two days ago were inexplicably on, and the back was fine.
This shows that there is indeed a problem with the electrical circuit of this house.
Maybe it's because there is a problem with the circuit, and I don't know which other electrical appliances are affected, so this sound is made.
Otherwise, it won't, there is no sound as soon as the fight starts, and there is a sound when the lights are turned off.
Thinking like this, Zhou Chengming immediately felt a lot more relieved.
He asked his girlfriend to turn off the lights.
In the dark,
He step by step,
Leaned over to the voice.
I don't know because I'm afraid,
Or to hear that voice better,
Zhou Chengming closed his eyes.
He constantly reminded himself,
It's just that the circuit is faulty,
It's just that the circuit is faulty,
It's just that the circuit is faulty
……
But reality gave Zhou Chengming a hard slap.
When Zhou Chengming found the source of the sound,
Open your eyes and take a look.
water dispenser,
Impressively right in front of him,
and he was less than ten centimeters away.
cold sweat
Bean-sized cold sweat,
Slipped from Zhou Chengming's forehead.
In the end, on this night, Zhou Chengming and his girlfriend turned on the lights, sat on the bed, clinging to the wall, as far away from the water dispenser as possible, and remained motionless until dawn.
As soon as it was dawn, Zhou Chengming and his girlfriend immediately went out.
They found a random place to sit down.
Zhou Chengming said, why don't they check out, that room is too evil.
But his girlfriend thought about it and disagreed.
If you check out, the deposit of 1,080 will definitely be gone, and there will be two months of rent left, 3,600 yuan, and how much you can get back depends on the mood of the landlord.
It was a big loss for them when they were just starting out at the time.
And where do they stay after checking out?
After losing this money, they no longer have enough money to rent another house.
So, I found a cheaper hotel and stayed for a few days, and Zhou Chengming and his girlfriend returned to the house.
