Chapter 5: Shadows

"Xingchen, what did you do with those paintings?"

In the huge luxurious living room, Xingyan was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and asked Xingchen, who was reading a newspaper on the side: "You seem to care a little bit about that Pu Ling's painting?" It's really good, but it seems to be a horror painting. It's really strange that there are no obvious characteristics of the era. ”

"You might as well move back in." Xingyan said again: "With such a big house, it's a little boring for me to live alone." What do you think? ”

"No, no. It's better for me to rent an apartment outside. ”

"You still haven't found a job, are you?"

"Work ......," he said, folding the newspaper and saying, "It's just odd jobs at the moment." ”

Several times I hesitated to tell Xingyan about the existence of the apartment? But could he have believed it? People who are not residents simply cannot believe in the existence of apartments. He would definitely think that he had paranoia, and at that time, it would be impossible to give him good advice about blood letters.

For Xingchen, even with the help of Shenyu, he still didn't have enough confidence to support the tenth blood word. Deep rain is simply not credible. Xia Xiaomei's death, others don't know, but Xingchen knows it very well.

She clearly wants to kill Silvernight and Silverfeather!

In this case, she may also become an experiment subject that she excluded. In the future, she may also be connived to kill.

Min's death is still a terrifying nightmare for the stars. He couldn't believe that he had actually killed Min. I actually killed her!

She ...... Really...... It's a demon......

Min's words before he died, Xingchen still remembers it vividly.

Really? What does it mean really? Could it be that Min had foreseen that Deep Rain would become what it is today?

After a detailed investigation into the things related to the deep rain, it was found that the two of them did not originally live in this city. Although the background of the two was exposed on the Internet, after so long, those web pages can no longer be found. It is already difficult to trace it further.

However, after the investigation, at least one thing was found.

That's ...... Min and Shenyu's surname is Pu!

Pu Shen Yu ...... This can't be a coincidence! Xingchen has already determined that Pu Miling must be the father of Min and Shenyu! In this case, Shenyu is likely to be inherited from his father's ability.

Could it be that Pu Yuling came to K City because of a transaction with the residents of the apartment? Or, is it pro bono help to the apartment residents?

Even, there is an even bolder guess.

Could Pu Miling have been one of the residents of the apartment before? And is this ability given in the process of executing the blood word? Relying on this ability, I spent ten times with blood letters and left the apartment?

Thinking of this, Xingchen couldn't help but care.

Shen Yu is the daughter of Pu Miling, and it is evidence that he committed [***] sin. And this distorted relationship was inherited.

Min didn't gain this ability. Why did the deep rain get instead? What's the mystery here? Under what circumstances did Min foresee that Deep Rain would become a "demon"?

This made him more and more uneasy.

At the moment, the chips you have are far from enough.

Back in his room, Xingchen took out all the paintings he had found.

What exactly are the characteristics of this ability?

Min's death has filled Seongjin with fear and guilt to this day. Whatever the reason, he did kill someone. Although he saved Min who committed suicide, it doesn't mean that he can kill her.

But I didn't have a choice. He didn't want to die in the blood letters, to be killed by those ghosts.

Ah Xiang's death had a great impact on him. When I entered the apartment, the partner I made for the first time, who could be completely acquainted, died in the second blood letter.

"What the hell is to do?"

At this time, the doorknob behind Xingchen suddenly turned.

Then, the door, slightly open.

A pale hand came in through the crack in the door!

"I don't understand." Xingchen stared at an oil painting and said, "I can't see anything special about the paper itself, isn't it the relationship between the paper?" Is it because of the brush? But I don't know what kind of strokes I used to draw them. ”

A pair of ** feet, stepping on the soft floor, step by step, walked towards the stars who were looking at the painting intently.

"Huh? This one? This one is ......"

In a dark room, a woman dressed in plain white clothes and with long hair sat at a writing desk and was writing something.

In the back of the oil painting, this woman has put the written things into the ...... Inside an envelope!

Envelop?

"Yes, it's a coincidence, right? How could it be ......"

Impossible. When pigs fly......

Those feet stopped behind the stars. The pale hand slowly stretched out towards the back of the stars!

Xingchen suddenly felt a pang in his heart, and when he looked back, there was nothing behind him.

"Really...... I'm getting more and more suspicious. It's in my own home......"

However, the tension in Xingchen's heart still did not relax in the slightest. He suddenly felt that he might as well go back to the apartment. Although I have cursed that apartment millions of times, it is indeed the safest place. Even if the ghost comes in, it will be sucked into that black hole.

However, it is better to keep these paintings at home.

At night, the residents have their own thoughts.

Today is April 15th. Tomorrow, we will leave for S City. When the time comes, in the face of this unpredictable bloody indication, no one knows how many will come back alive.

Li Yin still doesn't know how to find out the mysterious person. If Silver Night becomes that person's ally, it will be extremely bad for herself and Midnight. This time, he and Midnight were separated again. I don't know what will happen then.

Feng Yuxian, who is in room 402 next door, is at home. He was lying on the bed at this time, thoughtful.

"What should I do to meet you? Firefly? As long as I can see you......"

And Shangguan Mian, who was at home at this time, checked the ammunition. After loading all the weapons on her body, she put two more grenades on her body. Although the bomb has not yet been made, the grenade was taken from the body of the person who killed him while fleeing.

Her eyes were only bottomless and cold. There is nothing to stay in.

The reason why she went out a few days ago was because she knew that she might issue a bloody instruction at any time, so it was better to kill those who came to kill her first.

However, although she was fully prepared, she was still injured when she killed the golden-eyed demon Monshutes. Although injuries are commonplace, they are detrimental to the following blood letters.

So, she is ready for the final killer move - forbidden drugs.

In order to make the killers more powerful at critical moments, the organization will give them banned drugs for injections to improve their physical strength. But the side effects and harm of banned drugs to the body are also great.

For Shangguan Mian, life is just pure killing, or being killed.

She's just the one who kills her and lives to kill her own people. Or, one day, killed by someone else.

This is her life.

It doesn't matter if you live or die.

For her, the outside world, like this apartment, is hell.

And Li Yin and Midnight are together.

It was late at night, and the two had been discussing multiple ways to survive for hours. Although Li Yin has not fully accepted this, there is indeed a lot of circumstantial evidence that shows the possibility of multiple life paths.

And next, it's about sending letters.

If you forge a letter, you will have a high demand for information. The apartment will definitely have a remedy to balance this difficulty. Moreover, there must be a hint of a way out, and the ghost will kill.

Now the question is......

Will there be a third or fourth ghost?

"The Scarlet Script has the potential to confuse us, tell us where the ghosts are, and make us less wary of other places. In other words, there may be other ghosts there. ”

In fact, Midnight also takes this into account. Judging from the current content of the blood letter, it is at least certain that there are ghosts in both the Moon Shadow Pavilion and the Crown Pavilion.

"It is possible that Zeng Weixing and Ren Leon are not ghosts who want to kill us, but may become 'life paths'. Of course, this is only hypothetical. It may not even be Zeng Weixing and Ren Leon at all. ”

"Anyway, we ...... Absolute caution is necessary. There can be no carelessness! ”

Midnight.

Deep rain still can't sleep at all at the moment.

Murong Mirage was behind her, watching TV. It's a Korean drama that aired, and because it's an imported drama, you can watch it so late.

"You actually like to watch Korean dramas? I was surprised. Shen Yu looked at Murong Mir with interest and said, "I thought you would be very disgusted by this kind of nonsense plot. ”

"It's nothing." Murong Mirage crossed Erlang's legs and said, "Although it is a plot that is obviously detached from reality, it doesn't hurt to take a look." Because I want to know that these heroes and heroines are either amnesia in car accidents, or terminally ill and waiting for death, why does this routine always attract countless people to watch? After all, tragedy is more likely to appeal to human nerves. Compared with reunion, 'loss' is always easier to remember than 'gain'. ”

At this time, the heroine of the TV series shouted to her mother: "Mom! Why, Young-hee and I really love each other, I can't lose him no matter what, I would die without him, Mom! Please......"

"Yoon-hee! Are you abnormal? He's going to be engaged to another woman tomorrow, and you're going to find him? You ......" the woman on the screen shouted, "His mother won't accept you, have you forgotten?" Even if the sky falls, tomorrow at the end of the world, she won't let you be together! You sober up! ”

When Murong Mirage saw this paragraph, he suddenly laughed: "These lines are really interesting." Will you die without a loved one? A marriage that is not allowed even at the end of the world? People always like to use the most extreme way to interpret the contradictions in the drama. ”

"What is it about this show that they are not allowed to fall in love? The gap between rich and poor? Two generations of grievances? Misunderstand? Or terminal illness or amnesia from a car accident? Shenyu suddenly came over to take a look.

"Well, yes, what's the reason?" Murong Mirage thought for a moment and said, "I forgot." ”

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and said to the deep rain in front of him, "Speaking of which, there are some problems. Zeng Weixing and Ren Leon's parents, why, they are not allowed to fall in love? The problem of the gap between the rich and the poor does not seem to exist, and the grievances between the two generations should not be discussed. What exactly is the reason? ”

"About this......" Deep Rain also seemed confused: "I have no way of knowing." Only, one thing is certain. Initially, the two families were not opposed to the two falling in love. ”

"Oh? Is it? That's what changed ......"

"Here's where the confusion lies." Deep Rain replied, "At that time, something must have happened. However, I can't draw this thing out. What is certain is that something very terrible happened, which directly caused the two families to obstruct this marriage in every way, and did not hesitate to lock their children in the basement and break them up......"

"It's for sure......" Shenyu looked at the Korean drama that was still in full swing: "Definitely not, the general reason is ......"

"What do you mean? Do you perceive something? ”

"I can't feel it exactly, but when I decided to paint, it seemed like a shadow appeared."

"Shadows?"

"Yes. A very terrifying shadow, it seems, there is a certain person, during that time, visited the Moon Shadow Pavilion and the Corona Pavilion. And that person's visit led to the resolute obstruction of the two families from falling in love with the lovers. ”

"But...... I couldn't draw the person, I could only see, a blurry shadow......"
