Chapter 46: Moving
A week later.
Wind sleeve snow's commercial activities ended, and he left the city of industry.
After leaving the apartment that day, she didn't contact Bai Yanliang again, she could see Bai Yanliang's vigilance against them, and she also felt Bai Yanliang's refusal attitude.
Therefore, Bai Yanliang has had a relatively easy time during this time, and today, he is holding his mobile phone and following the map all the way.
169 Tsing Yi Street.
This is it.
Bai Yanliang put away his mobile phone and looked at the building in front of him that was incompatible with the surrounding reinforced concrete environment.
"Tuk Tuk ......"
Bai Yanliang knocked lightly on the door.
Soon there were footsteps inside.
"Who?"
The young man's muffled voice rang out in the courtyard.
The other party opened the courtyard door, revealing a young and handsome face.
No wonder there was such a muffled sound, it turned out that he was brushing his teeth.
"Hello, is this the rental information you posted?" Bai Yanliang didn't mind what the other party was doing.
Although it seemed to him that brushing his teeth at one o'clock in the afternoon was indeed a strange thing.
And looking at the appearance of this young man, it seems that he has just gotten up.
Maybe it's a special profession, right?
Bai Yanliang thought very intimately.
And the young and handsome man in front of him lit up after hearing Bai Yanliang's words, and hurriedly poured several mouthfuls of water into his mouth, and swallowed it with a grunt.
"Yes, yes, yes! It's me, yes! You're here to rent, right? Hahaha! Have an eye! ”
His enthusiasm surprised Bai Yanliang, and he didn't even introduce himself, so he pulled Bai Yanliang into this old building.
Because he saw the rent first, Bai Yanliang's psychological expectations for this place were not high.
In fact, it is precisely because the price is low enough that Bai Yanliang will be attracted.
But the room in front of him still broke Bai Yanliang's imagination, not too bad, but too ...... Good.
Typical brick and wood structure houses, doors and windows carved with simple and elegant patterns, from the courtyard gate all the way to the front of the house bluestone slabs, placed under the locust tree stone table, stone bench, not far away even dug out a small pond, flowing clear underground water.
The young man had been paying attention to Bai Yanliang's expression, but Bai Yanliang rarely had any expression, so he thought that Bai Yanliang still had any concerns.
Gritting his teeth, the young man said, "The rent can't be less!" Although there are rumors of hauntings here, what age is this! I think you're a young man too, so you shouldn't believe those nonsense, right? ”
Haunted?
Bai Yanliang glanced at him in surprise, he really hadn't heard of this.
But...... The reason why the rent is so cheap has been found.
"You see, I grew up here, I've lived here for more than 20 years, and I haven't seen any ghosts, and the old locust tree is a little gloomy, but I haven't seen any demons in it?"
Bai Yanliang smiled and asked, "How much is the rent a year?" ”
"Well, if you don't want to...... Huh? The man's eyes lit up, and he heard clearly what Bai Yanliang was saying: "You want to rent?" That's great! ”
"One thousand and five a month, and ten and eight thousand a year, even if it is ...... Count you seventeen thousand five! ”
The discount is as high as five hundred, and Bai Yan nodded with satisfaction, and both sides benefited.
"Hey! I knew you were different, unlike those cowards, who came in and saw a tree and scared their legs weak. He said this with his back to the locust tree.
Bai Yanliang followed his voice and looked at the locust tree, and suddenly looked stunned.
He seems to ...... I saw something with very long hair...... was looking at him through the cracks in the leaves.
The young man in front of him was still chattering, and Bai Yanliang did not act rashly, and withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened.
"My name is Goofy! There are four rooms in this courtyard, except for the one where I live, you can choose the other three! Goofy was very angry, but from his words, it also revealed that he seemed to be alone in this old courtyard.
Bai Yanliang did not refuse, he carried his luggage and chose the room farthest from the locust tree and the most right.
Under the busy work of the two, the room was quickly cleaned up and ready for occupancy.
Goofy is a nice young man, and it seems that he is very happy that the house is finally rented out, so he decides to go out and get some delicious food to wash the dust for Bai Yanliang.
Bai Yanliang sat on the stone bench in the courtyard and looked thoughtfully at the old locust tree.
Didn't think before, why ...... now? Strange things can happen everywhere?
Forget it, Goofy has lived here for so many years without any accidents, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
When Bai Yanliang was thinking this, a strange phone call suddenly came.
He looked at the unnamed number on the screen and pressed answer.
"Hello?"
"Is it Mr. White?" A magnetic man's voice rang out.
"You are?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.
"My name is Du Shangjing."
Duchamp?
Bai Yanliang remembered this name, this name, ranked after the wind sleeve snow, is currently in the fog set...... One of the people who lived the longest.
And Feng Sleeve Snow, her performance originally disappointed Bai Yanliang a little, but that day, she showed another personality. Now it seems that that personality is the key to Feng Sleeve Xue's ability to live forever.
So will there be anything special about this Mr. Duchampjing?
"Hello Mr. Du, what are you looking for me?" Bai Yanliang doesn't like to be polite, except for some necessary performances, he usually chooses to get straight to the point.
"That's right...... You haven't been in the group for the past few days, and we don't know much about the details of the third set of tasks, so ......"
Bai Yanliang suddenly forgot about this.
Actually, it's not that he doesn't want to share, but ...... He didn't like the atmosphere in the group.
Although everyone chatted quite enthusiastically on the surface, they read between the lines...... Most people are filled with a deep sense of despair.
They are using normal communication to cover up their inner confusion, fear, and even weirdness and madness.
When Bai Yanliang first entered the fog set, he found that among those various people, there were many people's spirits that were already on the verge of collapse.
He can see it because he is equally good at disguise, just as good at ...... Showing false emotions.
It is not uncommon for this to be under the pressure of endless despair for a long time, and in the face of a terrifying world that can die at any time.
But Bai Yanliang can also see that there are several people who do not have this kind of emotion, among them, there is this Du Shangjing.
"I'll put together a document and send it to you, Mr. Du."
Du Shangjing listened to Bai Yanliang's reply, but he was a little surprised.
But he didn't say no.
"I'm sorry for you, Mr. Bai."
"Well, if it's okay......"
“…… Wait a minute! Du Shangjing hesitated for a moment and exclaimed.
"Anything else?"
"Mr. Bai, may I ask...... Have you ever felt ...... What's not quite right? ”
Bai Yanliang was stunned, Du Shangjing's voice was a little low when he asked this sentence, and it seemed that he subconsciously didn't want others to hear it.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Yanliang smiled lightly:
"No, Mr. Du."
