Door 301 Survey Audio:
"Excuse me, I'm a reporter for Linghua Magazine in Pingling City."
"Journalists? Oh oh comrade journalist, hello, come in and say. ”
"Thank you."
*Footsteps and doors closing*
"Comrade reporter, what do you want to drink?"
"No, I'm here to ask something."
"You say, I know all the big and small things in our community!"
*Footsteps and pouring water*
"Comrade reporter, drink it, our water is sweet."
"Thank you. Do you have any impression of the fire in 302 half a year ago? ”
"Yes! Why not! I was downstairs chatting with my partner that day, and I saw a big cloud of black smoke coming out of the window, and the smoke was scary! ”
"Was there anyone in 302 at the time?"
"Well, you don't know, we all heard it downstairs, but it's miserable...... That girl is fine on weekdays, and she greets us when she sees us. ”
"You said the deceased was a woman?"
"Yes! What doesn't your newspaper know? Both are 29 years old. ”
[Acquisition keywords: female; 29 years old; 】
"We don't know the specific situation, so we came to interview and investigate. Do you know what her profession is? ”
"Looks like you're working on a computer?"
"You mean computer equipment sales?"
"No, it's a computer."
[Acquisition keywords: network-related occupations; 】
"And then?"
"Later, we went to find a few young men to help, but we couldn't get in, the fire was so big that the firefighters couldn't get in, and we still had to take the stairs outside to get in."
"Can't get in? Is it impossible to enter through the main entrance? ”
"yes, the door lock can't be opened."
"But I went to 302 before, and the door was closed."
"How bold a young man is...... It was after the fire was extinguished that the police came and found someone to pry the door open before entering. It's really miserable, it's all scorched and I kneel at the door......"
“…… Did they find anything? ”
"No, it seems like something to say...... Liquefied gas leakage, oh you have to be careful at home alone, I don't have a good memory when I'm old, and I have to be careful when cooking......"
"Do you have a picture of Kong Nanqing?"
"Do I have that kind of thing in my neighborhood?"
"Thank you for cooperating with the interview, I still have a few questions left, I hope you can answer them if it's convenient for you."
"Comrade reporter, you say."
"After the fire, did anything strange happen next door, or did a supernatural event?"
*Silence that lasts for a few seconds*
“…… What's this for, you ask? ”
"There is a section of our Linghua magazine where the supernatural ......"
"Oh...... I understand, I understand...... Or, why don't we go downstairs and talk about it? ”
"Yes."
*Murmur that lasts three minutes*
"I didn't dare to talk about it at home just now, there is indeed a haunting, my wife and I have seen it, and I still don't believe it when I talk to the baby."
"Can you elaborate?"
"Yes. Not long after the fire passed, our house could always smell a burning smell. ”
"It's 302 next door, it's normal to smell burnt, right?"
"It's different, I can still tell the difference between the taste on the outside and the taste on the inside. And that smell is in the living room, nowhere else. ”
"It's a bit strange to say that."
"At first, we didn't think about it, but then one Sunday, my daughter-in-law brought her grandson to see us, and at night the grandson behaved strangely, and told us when he left the next day...... Grandma, why is there a dark uncle sitting on the sofa at night, who is he? ”
*Cars passing by*
"At that time, my body was cold when I heard it, and this must be the girl who has returned."
"And then?"
"I asked my daughter-in-law to send her grandson away quickly, but we didn't dare to leave, in case she came to kill someone, let's do it or harm the two of us, let my daughter-in-law and grandson go. I was scared that nothing had happened all night, but the smell was still there, and I knew she had come. Later, every once in a while there was a burning smell in the house, we knew she was coming. She came and didn't do anything, didn't speak, just the living room couch, sometimes stayed overnight, sometimes stayed for a while and left. At first, she always came, but after a long time, she didn't come. Comrade reporter, let me tell you, this girl is a good person, and she is a good ghost when she dies, and she has never harmed anyone. ”
"Do you remember the last time she was seen?"
"It seems to be...... Last month, right? I don't know, we can't see her. ”
"Did she rent or buy that house?"
"It's renting land, and the landlord can't be contacted when he goes to other places, so the house has been put on hold."
"I'm done asking, thank you for your help. If the manuscript is approved, you will be paid a certain amount of remuneration. ”
"Oh, that's not necessary, just come and have a look when you have time, go slowly, comrade reporter."

Door 305 Survey Audio:
"Excuse me, I'm a reporter for Linghua Magazine in Pingling City."
"Newspaper? I don't think so...... Why haven't I heard that we have a Linghua magazine here? ”
"Well, to tell you the truth, I'm Lu Lizhen-"
"Are you Kong Nanqing's girl's boyfriend?"
“…… I...... Yes, that's right, I'm her boyfriend and I want to ask you something. ”
"Get out! You Chen Shimei still have a face! Get out! boy, bring me my crutches, I'm going to follow Bao Gong's cane and beat Chen Shimei today! ”

The investigation has been concluded for the time being.
Lu Li turned to the back page, and the next few photos were the information that Shen Qian found in the deceased's company and on the Internet, which was roughly the same as himself.
Turning to the blank space of the last page, Lu Li picked up the pen and wrote the epilogue on the file.
Analysis: After the investigation of the community, it was not found that any residents had encountered supernatural events, and it is uncertain whether they were sane or not. They will not actively harm their neighbors, but it is uncertain whether they will be harmed if they come into contact or enter Room 302. The ability is unknown, and it will always emit a burning smell to the outside.
Putting down the pen, Lu Li silently stared at the few lines of handwriting he had just written.
Putting this matter aside for the time being, it seems to be a good idea to find other ghosts to improve their strength steadily, and then go to find the burnt ghosts. But just as we can't predict the trajectory of our lives, Lu Li can't predict when he'll get a useful illustrated book.
It could be the next ghost, or it could be a ghost much later.
And there is nothing risk-free in the world, especially if you are stained with ghosts. Based on the intelligence gathered so far, the success rate is already worth the test.
He's been waiting five years and doesn't want to wait any longer.
