Chapter 0217 - Weird Apartment Building
Bang bang bang!
The door was slamming louder and louder.
The elevator door opened, and the three of them just stepped out of the elevator, and the earth-shattering sound of slamming the door shook the door frame as if it was about to dislocate, and the wall skin fell down.
Mr. Ke, who was the last of the three, turned pale, and held the elevator down the button and refused to let go. As long as the situation is not right, he will not hesitate to rush back to the elevator and slip away.
Luo Chu and Jiang Yue didn't seem to pay much attention to his actions, and both of them listened with their ears pricked up, as if they were not in a hurry to explore the crazy sound of slamming the door.
Mr. Ke couldn't help but think about it in his heart, thinking that these two people were a little abnormal in their brains.
The sound of slamming the door is very evil just by listening, and these two people actually seem to be unconcerned, not flustered at all?
Normal people slamming the door will never go crazy like this.
This kind of posture of slamming the door, unless it is a murder scene, is in a hurry to escape.
But the door was closed inside.
People from outside want to enter the house, and they can't get in without a key.
If the people inside want to come out, why do they still smash the door? Can't the doorknob come out as soon as it is pulled?
When you're at home in broad daylight, you can't lock yourself in the house and take a few insurances, right? Even if you lock it, you can use the key to open the door.
Why slam the door?
Every time it was smashed, the security door vibrated obviously, as if the entire door frame could be smashed at any time.
Luo Chu frowned and asked, "Xiao Jiang, what do you think?"
"It's not like a normal person. ”
At this moment, the sound of slamming the door suddenly stopped.
The screams inside seemed to have calmed down.
Instead, there was a piercing creak.
It's like a cat's paw scratching the door, and it's like a spatula scraping an iron pot, how uncomfortable it sounds.
Crunch ...... Crunch ......
At this time, there was a sudden ringing of the telephone in the empty corridor.
The three of them looked at each other, all stunned.
Immediately, Mr. Ke's face was like a vegetable, and he took out his mobile phone tremblingly.
When I looked at it, I almost screamed, my hand shook, and the phone snapped and fell to the ground.
A spider pattern suddenly appeared on the screen.
Ke summed up stammering, his face pale: "Yes...... It's ...... him."
"Who?" Jiang Yue asked in surprise.
"Old ...... Lao Dong ......"
How could it be him? Didn't the phone turn off when I called him before?
Jiang Yue and Luo were also a little confused.
"Pick up. Jiang Yue reminded.
Mr. Ke looked at the door of the apartment and then at his phone. Some hesitated.
But in the end, he gritted his teeth, connected the phone, and turned on the speaker.
"Old Dong, where are you?"
In order to strengthen his courage, Mr. Ke asked first.
There was no response on the other side of the phone, but a heavy wheezing sound was clearly heard on the other end of the line, like a wild beast's low roar pressed under his throat.
This sound is abnormal when you hear it, and it makes people feel creepy.
Mr. Ke's hand holding the mobile phone trembled non-stop, and this poor mobile phone kept shaking in his hand, revealing Mr. Ke's inner fear.
"Lao Dong?" Mr. Ke called into the mobile phone again.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
There was a violent coughing sound, sounding like it was about to cough up the whole lung.
When the cough finally ended, a slow, eerie voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone.
"You-everyone--you-will-die!!"
What the?
This sentence was spoken low and slow, but the words were clear, and Ke always heard it clearly!
Syllable!
The disaster-ridden phone fell to the ground again, and the entire screen was completely shattered.
Mr. Ke was sweating profusely, and his whole body trembled with fright, and he couldn't play anymore, so he just cried and shouted that I wanted to go home and let me go home!
Jiang Yue was not surprised by this sentence, and it was not the first time he had heard it.
"I'm going to go in and have a look. ”
This is a private house, and it stands to reason that you can't break into it at will. Jiang Yue said this, in fact, he told Luo Chu that the matter of going back and wiping his ass will be left to you.
Luo Chu nodded.
Jiang Yue stepped forward and didn't see him bothering much, as if the door was originally hidden.
Stretching out his hand and pulling, the security door made a muffled sound, and the structure of the entire lock collapsed at once, and the security door made a hoarse sound.
As the door was opened, a figure fell out almost simultaneously.
Take a closer look, ꓹ is the Dong Zong that Jiang Yue and they have been tracking.
"Old Dong?" Mr. Ke was dumbfounded.
Jiang Yue stopped Mr. Ke behind him, stepped forward, and roughly ripped off a pair of headphones from Mr. Dong's ear.
"You ......"
Seeing Jiang Yue's rough movements, Mr. Ke couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Mr. Ke, have you seen these headphones?"
Mr. Ke was shocked, but he still said truthfully: "Lao Dong once gave me a pair, saying that it is an international brand." I'm not interested in this thing, I forgot where I left it. It has never been demolished. ”
International brands?
High imitation is high imitation, what kind of international brand.
Jiang Yue said: "Mr. Ke, you finally did a wise thing. ”
"What's wrong?"
"The person who touches this headset is either dead or close to dead. If you've been using those headphones, this might be what they look like. Worse may have hung up. ”
Mr. Ke instinctively didn't believe it, just a pair of headphones, so exaggerated?
But seeing Lao Dong's ghostly appearance, he didn't dare not believe it.
I was thinking about where I left those damn headphones, and I had to find them and destroy them.
People of his level can naturally get some news, and he has naturally heard a lot of inside stories about the arrival of strange times.
The Luo Division in front of him is the director of the Operations Bureau, and if someone comes to the door so carefully, it must be a strange incident.
The old Dong in front of him made Mr. Ke a little unrecognizable.
Lao Dong, who was originally healthy and well-proportioned, has only been seen for half a month, and he is haggard and emaciated to this extent.
Not to mention that Mr. Ke hasn't seen him for half a month, Luo Chu and Jiang Yue saw Mr. Dong in the surveillance video, and they almost couldn't recognize the same person as the person now.
Surveillance was only a matter of last week's weekend, and it's only been a few days?
In just a few days, no matter how seriously ill you are, it is impossible to lose weight to this extent all at once.
Hit the evil spirits!
This is the only explanation.
Jiang Yue walked in through the open security door, which was a single apartment, only sixty or seventy square meters, with a layout of one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom.
However, this Dong Zong is obviously a person who understands life, and the design is very stylish, which is higher than the style of the luxury rooms of five-star hotels.
Jiang Yue walked around the house, searched carefully, but found nothing unusual.
What puzzled Jiang Yue was that there seemed to be no trace of inhabitation in this apartment. If Mr. Dong is living here these days, it stands to reason that the furnishings inside cannot be so neat.
This kind of neatness is like the kind of neatness you see when you just check into a hotel and push the door in.
Sofas, beds, cutlery and tea sets and other things have obviously not been touched.
When they went upstairs before, Jiang Yue deliberately listened to the movement at the door, and he was very sure that there was no one in this apartment.
But they just got downstairs and went downstairs, why did this Mr. Dong appear in the house again?
In this apartment building, there are three elevators, and there are more than a dozen suites on one floor.
Perhaps, when they went downstairs, Mr. Dong happened to take the elevator upstairs, and this kind of coincidence may not be absent.
But looking at Mr. Dong's appearance, it doesn't look like he can take the elevator normally.
And when he went downstairs, Jiang Yue also glanced at the elevator. At that time, the other two elevators, one on the ground floor and the other on a lower floor than this building, were stationary and did not run.
Therefore, the possibility that Mr. Dong took the other two elevators upstairs at the same time as they went downstairs can almost be ruled out from the time node.
If Mr. Dong took the elevator upstairs at that time, then the elevator should have stopped on the floor where Mr. Dong was located, or continued to run to another floor.
There is no reason why one is on the ground floor and the other is on the lower floor of the floor where Dong Zong is located.
There is also a possibility that when Mr. Dong arrived at this floor, he pressed the elevator on the same floor.
But this situation is almost none, because during the time that Jiang Yue was in the elevator, it was impossible for other elevators to run so fast, go later, and reach the ground floor first.
As for the elevator that stops on a lower floor, that's less likely.
Generally this type of residential apartment. No matter which floor you go down, you will go to the underground parking lot on the first floor or the first floor, and you will rarely go from one floor to another.
And in terms of time, it's too late.
With such an analysis, Jiang Yue could almost conclude that this old Dong was in this building before, but he was not in the apartment.
Then why did he go back to his apartment after they went downstairs, and still show up at the window, and why did he slam the door like crazy?
Is it because of the curse that comes with these headphones?
What is the magic of these headphones that can torture a normal person like this?
Jiang Yue couldn't sort out any decent clues in his mind at the moment.
Before, he found the main messenger behind the lottery, that is, this Dong Zong, thinking that finding Dong Zong was equivalent to finding the answer.
Now it seems that it is still too optimistic.
This Dong Zong has also become a victim from the mastermind behind their speculation.
And that's not even the scariest of all.
The most terrifying thing is that when it comes to Dong Zong, the clue is equivalent to being broken.
Mr. Dong's interpersonal relationship is not a simple girl like Wang Chenyan, and it will be clear after a check.
These days, who Mr. Dong has come into contact with and where has he appeared, the workload is too large and arduous to investigate, and it is almost an impossible task to complete.
Moreover, no one knows, where did he hit the evil spirit?
Jiang Yue checked very carefully, including a small ornament in the apartment, but he never found any clues.
Even the shoe cabinet that entered the door, Jiang Yue opened it and looked at it carefully.
Just as he was about to step out of the door, Jiang Yue suddenly stopped his steps again.
Turning his head and glancing at the shoe cabinet.
There are several delicate containers on the shoe cabinet, which contain some daily miscellaneous items, some coins, various membership cards, business cards, various payment receipts, etc.
In addition, there is a bunch of keys.
There are seven or eight of these keys, and at first glance they all look similar.
At first, Jiang Yue also noticed the key, but he didn't take it seriously. Security doors have at least six keys, and it makes sense to string them together.
However, when Jiang Yue looked back at it a second time, he still found something different.
These keys, although similar in shape, are almost indistinguishable. But a closer look reveals that these keys do not open the same door.
That said, not all of these keys are the keys to this home.
Jiang Yue became interested, picked up the hanging key, and tried them one by one on the security door.
When I tried the third one, the lock cylinder crackled.
This third key is indeed the key to this apartment building.
Jiang Yue continued to try until all the keys had been tried.
All but the third key, all the keys are not from this apartment.
A playful smile overflowed at the corner of Jiang Yue's mouth.
The shape of the keys is almost identical, and if you don't identify them carefully and try them one by one, you will definitely not notice this at first glance.
So......
What are the remaining keys for?
Other properties of the company?
With so many keys and no special markings, how did he identify them?
Seeing this, Luo couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Jiang, what's wrong?"
"The keys are kind of interesting. ”
Jiang Yue looked around, looking at the apartments on both sides of the corridor, and suddenly had an inspiration.
"Luo, it seems that this Dong Zong really doesn't have to be rich. This apartment, as soon as you buy it, is half a floor, which is really a big deal. ”
Jiang Yue said, taking one of the keys in his hand.
Inserted into the security door of one of the apartments.
Incredibly, the lock was actually opened.
Jiang Yue immediately tried one by one, and it was magically opened one by one, and it was accurate, and none of them had been tried twice.
It's all one pass, one open.
Even Mr. Ke was dumbfounded.
"This dog-day old Dong, so rich, hid it very deeply, I always thought he was just an apartment here. ”
Although this apartment is only more than one million, there are eight in this row, which is half a floor.
This place alone has to be worth one or two million dollars, not to mention other more valuable mansions.
But if you have money, you can use a bird?
Looking at this old Dong who was unrelenting, so thin that he was out of shape, not at all like a normal person, and even could lose his breath at any time, Mr. Ke's mind immediately changed.
Money is not money to this point, what can be decided?
"What kind of disease does this old Dong have, why don't you go to the hospital to see a doctor?" Mr. Ke muttered.
"Do you really think he's sick?"
"What's that?" Mr. Ke's scalp tingled for a while, he actually vaguely thought of a possibility, the reason why he asked what disease he was was actually a kind of self-comfort.
"You dodged the headphones, but you didn't dodge the golden toad being tampered with. Now that the catastrophe of Jin Toad has been resolved, whether it can be avoided in the next step or not, whether it will end up in the same fate as this old Dong, has to be said separately. ”
Jiang Yue didn't mean to scare Mr. Ke.
The situation has developed to this point, and it is obvious that it is a little out of control.
How many demons are behind it, how many black hands are manipulating, Jiang Yue can't figure it out at all.
Is all this really the work of Master Liu?
