The atmosphere in the building is getting better. Maybe it's because 1204 has someone. Everyone's fear of it has faded. In the past, almost all people were reluctant to use the elevator on the side of 1204 after leaving work at night, but now this situation is starting to change.

Since we are neighbors and often see each other, I get along well with my two brothers, especially my brother Zhou Shuai. I noticed that the two brothers seemed to be particularly diligent, and they stayed late in the office every day. But nothing happened to them. I was secretly relieved for them, and it wasn't until one day when we were having dinner together that Zhou Shuai told me something, and I knew that things were not so simple.

I usually don't go home at noon because I'm too lazy to cook. Usually I have lunch with Shin at a nearby restaurant. As soon as we sat down that day, we saw the door open, and the Zhou brothers also came in, and it seemed that they had also come for lunch. And then we sat together. Everyone chatted casually while eating. Zhou Xiang was still like that, he didn't talk much, he just buried his head in eating. Xin has always been a little prejudiced against Zhou Shuai, so she doesn't talk much. The main thing is that Zhou Shuai and I talk a lot. As we were talking, Zhou Xiang suddenly said: "Mr. Wang, what brand of server is your company?" Is it normal to use? I was stunned for a moment, and then told him, "IBM, there will be glitches occasionally." Basically, nothing is a problem. ”。 Zhou Xiang scratched his head with his hand: "It's really strange, we also use IBM's." It used to be good, but how to move here has always been problematic. "I'm also a technician, so I immediately followed up when I heard him say this. Zhou Xiang pushed his glasses: "Since the second day when our server is powered on here, the server has always shut down inexplicably. There is no regularity, it just stops suddenly. I checked the system logs, and there are no fault records, all of them are normal shutdowns. It's weird, it's like someone is always secretly shutting down our servers. Zhou Shuai took over the topic: "Yes! For this, the customer is very dissatisfied. I know my brother's level, and he is technically very good, but he just can't find a fault. Zhou Xiang swallowed a mouthful of food and muttered dissatisfiedly: "If you can't find anything wrong, there's nothing wrong with it at all." Xin and I looked at each other. I can't help but think about the past in the direction of the supernatural. "Mr. Wang, aren't you also an expert! Can you take the time to take a look, maybe it can help us solve the problem. Zhou Shuai said again. Zhou Xiang also raised his head and looked at me.

I was about to answer when I felt Xin kick me lightly under the table. I had to smile helplessly. Since the last car accident (see the previous "Night Horror" for details), Xin has seriously stipulated to me that she can't provoke 1204 anymore no matter what. I have always dared not take Xin's opinion lightly. She is not the kind of little woman who can only play tricks, and her analytical and judgment skills are very admirable to me. And that's what I care about. Thinking of this, I had to find an excuse to politely reject Zhou Shuai.

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed. 1204 has a problem again. On Monday afternoon, Zhou Shuai and the property department of the building had a big quarrel. Because the circuit of 1204 did not know what was wrong, it kept tripping. They are information technology companies, how can they work without electricity? Eight or nine employees stared at the computer that couldn't be turned on, and the work couldn't be carried out. Zhou Shuai jumped like thunder. The electrician in the property department frowned at the switch. Two electricians kept working until 6 p.m. The lights in the house work normally, but the chāza trips as soon as the electrical appliances are plugged in. According to common sense, it should be a short circuit, but the two electricians can't solve it. Later, because of some inappropriate speech, Zhou Shuai and the electrician had a conflict in the corridor. The two sides argued loudly and later began to push each other. Zhou Shuai and I were friends, so I didn't rush home that day. Seeing that the situation was a little out of control, the manager of the property department and I hurriedly separated the two sides.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes pushed the door and walked in. The manager of the property department saw it, hurriedly greeted us, and then introduced us: "This is the senior general manager of our company." I smiled and said hello, but it was very strange, Mr. Gao seemed to have some concerns, he didn't seem to dare to enter the house, but just stood in the foyer and looked around the house very quickly for several weeks, as if he was looking for something. So much so that he didn't even see me smile at him.

Zhou Shuai didn't pay attention to this detail, and just asked him with a cold face how to solve today's matter. Mr. Gao came back to his senses, he smiled all over his face, and kept apologizing to Zhou Shuai: "I don't usually come here, but today is a coincidence, come and meet a friend." I've heard that such an unpleasant thing happened. Mr. Zhou, don't be angry, we will severely punish the employees who make trouble. "Although Zhou Shuai has a bad temper, he is reasonable. Seeing that the other party apologized and gave in, he no longer cared. "Mr. Gao, this matter is not a big deal. I also have a place where I talk too much, and it's all a small thing. Now the question is what about the electricity in my room? Our company couldn't work normally for half the afternoon. This has to be settled. Mr. Gao raised his head and looked at it. The manager of the property department hurriedly introduced the situation. Mr. Gao had a strange look on his face. He hesitated, walked over to the chā seat, looked at it carefully, and then chā head chā inside. We all thought it would trip immediately. However, the overhead light flashed a few times, but it didn't go out, and the electric switch didn't jump again. The circuit is working! Several people in the room looked at each other suspiciously. Zhou Shuai stood up with a "whew". Got the other chā heads in and everything worked fine. Everyone waited inexplicably for a minute. Mr. Gao spoke first: "It's good on its own!" Hehe, the circuit thing! There are often such things. Zhou Shuai thought for a while and said, "Mr. Gao, this is not easy to say, in case it breaks again tomorrow!" Mr. Gao nodded: "That's it, let's do it today." Tomorrow, let Manager Sun (the department manager of the property department) come over and have a look. If there are still questions, we will discuss them. Zhou Shuai could only agree when he saw it.

☆, Chapter 28 1204 Leased Out (2)

Mr. Gao was obviously very reluctant to stay here longer, he hurried to the door, and before leaving the door, he turned around the room again. When he arrived outside the door, Mr. Gao seemed to be relieved, and he warmly invited everyone to have dinner together, mainly to apologize to Zhou Shuai. I looked at my watch, it was already 8 p.m., so I excused myself. The Zhou brothers accepted Mr. Gao's invitation.

The next day, I went to 1204 to inquire about the situation. It was found that SCP-1204's circuit was completely normal. Zhou Shuai was talking to an employee, and when he saw me coming, he immediately pulled me into the office and closed the door. With a puzzled look on his face, he asked me, "Dude, there's something I need to ask you." Did anything special happen to me renting this room? I chuckled and asked, "What's wrong?" Zhou Shuai said: "Mr. Gao invited me to dinner last night, after what should be said." He's been asking me if there's anything strange going on here, consciously or unconsciously. I didn't care if he asked him once, but he asked several times. I started to get alarmed. Also, Zhou Xiang talked a lot and told us about the fact that our server was not working properly. That Mr. Gao's face was very wrong after hearing this. ”

I hesitated to tell him about the deaths of 1204. Just then, the office door was pushed open, and a fashionably dressed fù woman walked in with a child in her arms. As soon as the child entered, he shouted, "Daddy! ”。 Zhou Shuai immediately stood up and introduced me while picking up the child. It turned out to be his wife and son. The child is just two years old, looks like Zhou Shuai, and is very cute. Zhou Shuai hugged his son with joy, his face was full of warmth, and his eyes were full of love.

I tugged at the child's little hand and tried to tease him. But the boy ignored me, turned his little head to look left and right, and suddenly pointed to the corner of the wall with his hand. Zhou Shuai didn't pay attention, and kept teasing the child. The boy was reluctant, struggled a few times, and still pointed to the corner, as if to tell us what was there. This time we all noticed, and when we looked in the direction the child was pointing, there was nothing in the corner of the empty dàngdàng. "What's wrong?" Zhou Shuai looked at the child strangely and asked, "Son, what are you referring to?" The kid stared at the corner for a few seconds, then slowly spat out a word that gave me the creeps, "Auntie!" ”

I shuddered and followed the child's direction. That's an empty dàngdàng corner, nothing. I couldn't help but think of the female ghost of 1204 again. It is said that children's eyes are pure and can see things that we can't. Could it be that the female ghost is in this room right now, and she is staring at us? I instantly felt the temperature in the room drop by several degrees.

Zhou Shuai and his wife didn't know, Mrs. Zhou took the child and said, "Baby, there is no one there, no aunt." The child didn't follow and made a fuss: "There is an aunt, there is an aunt!" Zhou Shuai smiled: "This kid! It's just nonsense. ”

But I don't think so in my heart, but I can't tell Zhou Shuai the truth now, and I don't know if he believes these ethereal things. And in front of the child, I can't say it. Seeing that Zhou Shuai and his wife seemed to have something to discuss, I had to temporarily suppress this matter and say goodbye to their husband and wife. Who knew that this caused a catastrophe, and Zhou Shuai almost died.

Three days later, in the morning, I felt something was wrong as soon as I arrived downstairs in front of the building, with an ambulance parked in front of the building, and a fire engine. Could it be that there was a fire. I walked to the elevator hall and saw hundreds of people around here, and I noticed that the elevators on this side had all been suspended. Just when I was inexplicable, I heard the people inside shouting, "Let's go, let's go." Let the stretcher pass! The crowd immediately dispersed to both sides. Four paramedics hurried out of the building carrying a stretcher. I saw at a glance that it was Zhou Shuai lying on the stretcher. He also had several abrasions on his face. I saw Zhou Xiang following the stretcher again. I hurriedly chased a few steps to the front and shouted at Zhou Xiang, "Zhou Xiang, what do you need me to help with?" Zhou Xiang was obviously a little overwhelmed, but repeatedly said, "My brother fell and injured himself, I have to go to the hospital with him." At this time, the medical staff had already carried Zhou Shuai into the car. How dare I delay the ambulance and get out of the way. The paramedics quickly closed the car door and the ambulance headed straight for the hospital.

I hurriedly called the boss to explain the situation, and at this time Zhou Xiang also called and told me that they went to the First People's Hospital of the city. I hurriedly drove over. Zhou Xiang was on the phone in the hospital. Zhou Shuai has been checked. He had three broken ribs and was preparing for surgery. Zhou Xiang was already poor at communicating, and he was even more hurried in the face of such an urgent situation. I helped him with the formalities. At this time, the parents of the Zhou brothers also came, and the old man was quite calm, but the old lady was not good, crying and nagging. Zhou Shuai was quickly pushed into the operating room. We sat outside the operating room and began the long wait. After two hours, Zhou Shuai was finally pushed out. Fortunately, the surgery was successful. Seeing that Zhou Shuai was fine, I left the hospital.

On the third day, I went to the hospital again, and Zhou Shuai was already much better. He was able to sit up and speak freely. I asked him what was going on. Zhou Shuai told me what happened at that time.

That morning, Zhou Shuai came to the building as usual to take the elevator. Just as I was about to enter the elevator hall, a customer called. Zhou Shuai's company is actually in a similar situation to ours, both are in their infancy, and their operations are not going well. Therefore, when receiving a call from a customer, we are doubly careful to avoid losing a piece of business. Zhou Shuai was busy answering the phone and didn't pay attention to the elevator, and when he reacted, the elevator was already closed, and only the last small crack was left in the elevator door. Zhou Shuai was in a hurry to go to the company to deal with the customer's affairs quickly. He forced his hand to chā and then pulled the door apart. Under normal circumstances, the elevator will not start until the door is completely closed, but I don't know what happened that day (probably because Zhou Shuai opened the elevator door hard) The car inside has started and left the first floor. Zhou Shuai stepped in, felt empty under his feet, and plunged into it.

Zhou Shuai fell into the shaft of the elevator shaft. The landing was about three or four meters high from the place where he fell, and Zhou Shuai fell unconscious on the spot. Because it was still early, no one found out. After a while, Zhou Shuai woke up on his own. He tried to stand up, but the pain was so severe that he couldn't move. He didn't know where he had lost his phone. Zhou Shuai shouted a few times, but no one heard him. It was also Zhou Shuai's life, this morning he was running low on his mobile phone, so he put another mobile phone at home in his bag. Zhou Shuai took out the mobile phone with difficulty and dialed 110. Later, under the coordination of 110, 120 and 119 were transferred, and Zhou Shuai was rescued with the assistance of firefighters.

"Why don't you look when you get into the elevator? The elevator shaft is pitch black and the car is brightly lit, which is easy to spot. I asked him. After hearing this, Zhou Shuai's face was solemn for a while, and he looked at me seriously and said, "This question has been asked by others, but even my mother doesn't believe my words." I actually saw the car, and I'm sure I read that right, there was a woman in a blue dress standing inside, and she smiled at me when she opened the door, but I stepped in and fell down. I'm really dazzled. ”

I know who he saw. It seems that this 1204 female ghost finally came to the Zhou brothers. Looking at the large piece of gauze wrapped around Zhou Shuai's chest, I sighed. Zhou Shuai thought I was worried about his injury, and smiled at me: "Dude, don't worry about me, although my injury is serious, it is not in great danger." I've heard that Zhou Xiang is a technical nerd and doesn't know how to do things, and you were all running before and after greeting that day. Brother, thank you. I smiled wryly at him, chatted for a few more minutes, and left.

I came home preoccupied. Xin was practicing yoga, and when she saw me coming back, she turned off the music and pulled me to the sofa to ask me about Zhou Shuai. Finally, she warned me with a stern face that I couldn't step into 1204 again. I told her I couldn't make up my mind whether I should tell Zhou Shuai about the tragedy of 1204's past. Xin thought for a long time and then groaned, "Don't say anything. I know you're friends, but it's not something you can handle. I know it's selfish, but even if I'm selfish, I'm really afraid you're going to get into trouble. Your car accident last time has scared the hell out of me, and I don't want anything to happen to you again. Looking at her worried expression, I had to solemnly agree to her.

However, the development of things is often not determined by the wishes of individual supervisors. A strange incident the next night led me back to 1204 once again.

The next night I had something to do and it was already 11 p.m. when I left the company. I pushed open the door and came out, still thinking about the work just now, in fact, today's things were not done, I thought that I would come early tomorrow morning, and I had to turn around and lock the door, at this moment, I swept the corner of my eye, and unexpectedly found a person standing quietly in front of the door of 1204, which scared me. Because at night, the building has turned off more than half of the lights in the corridor, basically every two lights, and 1204 is in a dark place, of course, the darkness is also relative, not pitch black. The point is that it was already so late, and I didn't expect someone to be standing there at this time, especially the person who was still silent. I wasn't mentally prepared for anything, so I almost screamed out in fright.

But I was nervous, and the man across from me was even more nervous, and he hid himself in the shadows, obviously not wanting me to see him. I took two steps closer and took a closer look, and that person turned out to be Zhou Xiang. "Zhou Xiang, what are you doing here?" I asked, surprised. Seeing me approaching, Zhou Xiang was unexpectedly tight
