Chapter 146: The Price
"Damn, why is there no signal?" The boy threw his phone and shouted in the hall in a bit of a rage. "Meihui, don't be angry, it's not that I don't talk to you, it's that this broken Slant Tower has no signal, and it's not an airport! Damn it! ”
At this time, Wu Qingbo walked out of the bedroom with his daughter, and when he saw the boy smashing his mobile phone, he asked, "Xiao Xuan!" What are you doing here? There was a hint of disgust in the words.
"Hehehe...... Wu Xuan turned around stiffly, "It's okay, Dad, it's just that the mobile phone has no signal." ”
Wu Qingbo nodded, wanting to appease his daughter again, and then turned his head, only to find that she was already standing at the window of the living room.
Wu Jinmeng looked downstairs. "Dad, why hasn't anyone gathered around to see it for so long?" She had a hint of a tremble.
"Sister, what are you looking at?!" Wu Xuan said, and also ran to the window. The puddle of blood downstairs brought him to the ice cellar, and after a few seconds, he clapped his hands and cheered, "Hahaha, someone fell to their deaths!" ”
"Bang" slapped Wu Xuan's face abruptly, and Wu Qingbo's eyes exuded a yin owl light.
Wu Xuan was slapped, stopped talking, and turned to leave.
After turning around, a hateful smile appeared on his face.
At this time, the doorbell rang, and Wu Qingbo's heart suddenly beat wildly. "Who!?"
"Hello sir, morning dessert!" The voice of the waiter.
Wu Qingbo was about to refuse, but Wu Jinmeng ran to open the door.
This is a boy with clear eyebrows.
From the first time they met the day before yesterday, Wu Jinmeng fell in love with him at first sight, and learned that his name was Lang Xiao, he was 22 years old this year, and his family lived locally.
When Lang Xiao handed over the dessert, he pinched Wu Jinmeng's hand intentionally or unintentionally, and showed a wicked smile at her, and Wu Jinmeng's face suddenly flushed.
Wu Qingbo couldn't get used to this waiter's fussiness with his daughter, and he wanted to stop it, but he couldn't, why? Because just yesterday, this waiter Lang Xiao discovered his secret.
"That's right! Langxiao, come over and take a look! Wu Jinmeng put down the dessert and pulled Lang Xiao to the window.
Lin Xiumei came out of the room, and when she saw this, she said angrily: "If something happens, you have to call the police immediately, what's the use of you pulling him over to see?" ”
"We don't have a mobile phone signal here, maybe their service staff has something to do! After all, human lives are at stake. Wu Qingbo couldn't help but say on the side.
As he spoke, he and his wife glanced at each other, but immediately looked away.
After seeing someone downstairs quickly cleaning up the scene, Lang Xiao smiled and said, "Mengmeng, are you mistaken?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were shocked, so they went to the window to see - the downstairs was clean, and there was not even a drop of blood in the original place where the corpse was.
"It can't be! A few of us have seen it!! Wu Qingbo said in surprise.
"Nothing is impossible! Mr. Wu, I think you are overworked, I heard that in a state of exhaustion, the chance of hallucinations is several times more than that of ordinary people, so Mr. Wu should pay attention to rest! As Lang Xiao said this, a playful smile appeared in the corner of his eyes.
Wu Qingbo knew what Lang Xiao was referring to, he subconsciously glanced at his wife, and found that his wife's eyes flashed with doubt. "We're all right here, can you get out?" He said coldly to Lang Xiao.
Lang Xiao nodded and smiled, turned around and pushed the food delivery cart out.
Wu Jinmeng was very dissatisfied, glanced at his father, and chased him out.
"Dawn! Don't leave! Wu Jinmeng hugged Lang Xiao from behind.
"What's wrong? Do you have something? Lang Xiao stopped, turned around, and smiled charmingly.
Love surged through Wu Jinmeng's heart like an electric current, and she took the initiative to kiss it.
Half an hour later, in the room, Lang Xiao hugged Wu Jinmeng and kissed her forehead.
"Langxiao, is there anything between you and my father?"
Lang Xiao smiled when he heard this, and didn't want to hide it from her, so he touched her forehead and sideburns with his hand. "Your dad has an amazing secret, here, 1707 on the 17th floor of the Slant Tower."
Wu Jinmeng was stunned for a moment. "Huh? Aren't there only six rooms on each floor? How could there be 1707? ”
Lang Xiao kissed Wu Jinmeng's forehead again, and then got up and put on his clothes. "You're a smart girl." After saying this, he pushed the dining cart and walked out.
"Tick Tick Tick ......"
The clock on the wall showed that it was 21 o'clock, Wu Jinmeng couldn't sit still, she decided to go to the 17th floor to find the 1707 that didn't necessarily exist.
The 17th floor, like the other floors, is quiet, and even the potted plants in the hallway are exactly the same.
Wu Jinmeng walked through 1701 and 1702, her footsteps stepped on the carpet without sound, but her heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, she didn't dare to look back, so she had to walk forward.
1703…… 1706。 Wu Jinmeng stood at the door of the last room, looked up at the door number, it was 1706 That's right, and further on there was the window, there was indeed no 1707 that Lang Xiao said.
Could it be that Lang Xiao is joking with me? Wu Jinmeng cursed in his heart, turned around and returned the same way.
At this time, a voice drilled into Wu Jinmeng's ears, she stopped and listened, and her face immediately turned red, the sound was obviously a sound that only men and women would make when they were in love!
She wanted to walk away, but she couldn't take a step, and suddenly she understood why she couldn't move—
Because the man's voice was none other than her father, Wu Qingbo.
The heart is thundering.
Wu Jinmeng walked to the safe passage, and there were fluorescent green words on the door frame.
That's where the sound comes from.
Should I go in or not?
Just as Wu Jinmeng hesitated, the door of the safe passage automatically opened a crack.
Through this crack, Wu Jinmeng saw that "heaven and earth". In this world, she saw her father Wu Qingbo cheating on a bewitching woman!
It turns out that the 1707 that Lang Xiao said is here!
The bewitching woman pressed Wu Qingbo under her, and there were words in her mouth, "Do you love me?" ”
"Love!"
"How much love?"
"Love you, love is willing to die for you......"
Before the words fell, Wu Qingbo was speechless, because the woman really killed him.
The woman had a knife in her hand, skillfully cut out the internal organs, and carefully placed them in the container next to her. "Hahahaha, that's good, then I'll fulfill you! Let you die for me! ”
The liquid spilled out was like a thick oil painting, flowing like a thick oil painting.
"Vomit ......" Wu Jinmeng knelt on the ground and retched.
"Who's where?!" The woman in the room was startled and ran quickly to the door.
The doorway was empty, save for a little vomit on the carpet......
When Wu Jinmeng woke up, it was two o'clock in the morning.
Lang Xiao was next to her bedside.
"Did you save me?"
Lang Xiao nodded.
He looked at the dark clouds surging in the sky outside the window, and sighed, "The storm is coming soon, the Slant Tower is not the place for you, let's leave tomorrow!" When he had said this, he jumped out of the window.
It's fifteen floors! Wu Jinmeng ran to the window, only to find that there was nothing downstairs, as weird as yesterday's scene.
She suddenly thought of a reasonable explanation: Lang Xiao and the people who jumped to their deaths yesterday were ghosts.
*
"Mommy, Mommy!" Wu Jinmeng knocked on her mother's door.
Lin Xiumei opened the door and said with a tired face: "What are you doing?" Waking up so early disturbs people's dreams! ”
"Where's Daddy?" Wu Jinmeng looked into the room.
Lin Xiumei yawned, "I don't know, maybe I went to the morning exercise, what's wrong?" ”
Wu Jinmeng's heart jumped, "Did Dad come back last night?" ”
Lin Xiumei was stunned, "You kid, what kind of strange question did you ask early in the morning, where can your father go if he doesn't come back last night?" She lost her sleepiness and put her arm on her daughter's shoulder, "What's wrong?" Moe? Having a nightmare? ”
Wu Jinmeng's face turned blue. "Yes, it's a nightmare! Real is not like a dream! ”
As he was talking, the door suddenly rang, and Wu Qingbo walked in from outside, wearing sportswear, his face was red, red as if he was wearing a mask, and he was carrying breakfast in his hand. "Wife and children, it's time for breakfast!"
Wu Jinmeng was taken aback, she hurriedly walked into the room and locked the door.
Lin Xiumei stepped forward and said, "The kid came early in the morning and asked if you came back last night, and the whole person was very haggard, could something happen?" ”
Wu Qingbo shook his head and said with a smile, "What can happen?" This shows that your daughter has grown up completely! Come on, come and have breakfast, we'll go out later! Everyone heard this, but no one saw the bloodthirsty chill under Wu Qingbo's eyes.
Wu Jinmeng was sure that this man was not her father. She even suspected that he was wearing a human skin mask.
Lin Xiumei was very happy, because her husband, who had been cold for a few months, suddenly cared for her, gave roses not to mention, and also made a little romance - ordered a candlelight dinner for two people in the restaurant on the tenth floor of the tower!
This romance that has not been seen for a long time made Lin Xiumei excitedly forget to think about how abnormal this is.
Wu Jinmeng observed for a day and naturally discovered this anomaly.
"Mom! Don't go on this date! Can't you see how unusual this is? Isn't it strange that Dad has been lukewarm to you for the past few months, and suddenly he is so courteous? While her mother was putting on makeup, Wu Jinmeng came in to dissuade her mother.
Lin Xiumei stood up and began to put on her skirt. "You've been weird lately! That's your father, I'm your mother, isn't it the most normal thing in the world for him to be good to me? Besides, no matter what he has done before, as long as he turns around, he will still be a good father and husband! ”
Seeing that she couldn't be dissuaded, Wu Jinmeng stepped forward and grabbed her mother's hand, with tears in her eyes. "Mom, you have to trust me! I swear, there's something wrong with that! Don't go on a date with that guy, okay! ”
Lin Xiumei said in confusion: "Why, you give your mother a reason!" ”
"That man is not Daddy, Daddy is dead!" Wu Jinmeng gritted her teeth and said what she wanted to say in her heart.
A "snap" slap landed on her pink cheek. "Bastard! You girl has fallen for evil! How can you curse your father to death? Give me a good time to stay in the room and reflect!! If you don't reflect well, you are not allowed to go out! After speaking, he pushed Wu Jinmeng into the room.
There was a hot pain on her face, Wu Jinmeng lowered her head and smiled coldly, stupid woman, wait for death.
Dark clouds rolled in the sky overnight.
Wu Qingbo and Lin Xiumei did not return last night.
In the morning, the food delivery person came to knock on the door, and at the door of the room, the food delivery person was not Lang Xiao, but a thin boy who blushed as soon as he spoke.
When Wu Jinmeng asked him where the waiter Lang Xiao went, the boy was stunned and said, "I've never heard of a waiter surnamed Lang!" Beauty, are you mistaken? ”
"That's my boyfriend, how could I be mistaken?!" Wu Jinmeng yelled at the boy angrily, leaving breakfast and closing the door.
Just as she was thinking, Wu Xuan walked out of the room, only to see that his eyes were dark, his hair was dirty, and there was a foul smell on his body. "Brother, what's wrong with you, it seems like you've changed overnight!"
Wu Xuan sat down and smiled palely, "Hehe...... Your brother is frustrated now, isn't he? After taking a sip of the porridge, the expression on his face gradually became hideous. It's frustrating, isn't it?! Well?! It's no wonder that Mie wants to break up with me, it's no wonder Mie wants to split her legs, and it's no wonder that Mie sleeps with other men!! ”
Wu Jinmeng suddenly felt unwell.
She persuaded, "Brother, will you be mistaken, Sister Meihui has always been very gentle and has always been very good to you!" How could it be cheating? ”
"Who are you, that little slut? Why are you speaking for her?! Wu Xuan stood up suddenly, stepped forward and grabbed Wu Jinmeng's neck. Say, are you in league with that little slut?! Who are you? The force on his hand kept getting stronger.
He strangled his own sister!
A thought flashed, and Wu Jinmeng raised his leg to Wu Xuan is blow.
Wu Xuan yelled, let go of Wu Jinmeng, and let out a rough scolding sound, Wu Jinmeng ran towards the door desperately.
Restless, she took the elevator to the registration office on the first floor and asked Lang Xiao. As a result, there was never a person named Lang among the waiters in the Slanter Tower.
"Sir, please look for it again, is there really no such person? Don't lie to me. Wu Jinmeng said to the lobby manager with some grievances.
The lobby manager shook his head, "Beauty, we really don't need to lie to you!" Without this person, there is no such person! ”
*
Don't have this person? Thought she would accept the result? Could it be that what happened the other day was a dream?
Bullshit!
Wu Jinmeng decided to go back to the 17th floor to have a look.
The atmosphere on this level is still chilling.
Walked to the so-called "1707" and pushed open the unlocked door.
Inexplicable uneasiness in my heart!
Her eyes finally fell on the small door of the electric water meter.
What's inside this little door?
She reached out, hesitated, and gently pulled the meter door open.
My heart was almost stopping.
A bloody rancid smell first entered her nose, and then a huge shadow hit her in front of her, and she didn't allow Wu Jinmeng to see it clearly, so she pressed towards her. She happened to hug - a corpse.
It seemed as if someone was blowing on her shoulders and in her ears.
"Ahh She screamed, pushed away the corpse she was holding, and pushed her feet backwards as she pushed away, her steps were unsteady, and she fell to the ground.
She crouched in the corner, huddled in a ball. After a long time, she decided to turn the body over.
The corpse was already stiff. Before turning over, Wu Jinmeng had been praying and praying in his heart......
"Woo woo woo ......" The moment she saw the front of the corpse, she cried.
As she ran down the hallway, there were screams of pain and nails scratching at the door in the otherwise dead rooms.
The doors seem to open at any moment, and strange things can jump out of them at any time.
Her hand kept pressing the sign of the elevator "down", but the elevator stayed on the tenth floor.
She suddenly remembered that her parents had gone to the tenth floor for a date and dinner last night, and then they didn't return all night...... The chill creeped down the neck and down the scalp like a creeper.
There seemed to be a pair of hollow, dead eyes staring at her from behind.
Don't look back, don't look back!!
With a crisp sound of "ding", the elevator reached the 17th floor, breaking the silence.
