Chapter 10: The Eerie Rooftop

In the afternoon, my roommate drove me to help me move. I don't have a lot of things, a bachelor, not to mention food or clothing, the only thing that accounts for the weight is several large boxes of books. I love to read, and I can't put down the books every night, and I have saved a lot over the years. The two of us moved to the car, drove to the garden community and moved down. The old man at the gate was really warm-hearted, and when he saw me moving, he hurried out to help.

When moving things to the elevator, I and my roommate were tired like dogs sticking out our tongues, and Lao Wang was holding the heaviest box with his face unchanged and out of breath. From time to time, he sarcastically mocked us: "My half-grown old man has better physical strength than you young people, and you sit in the office all day long." ”

My roommate and I looked at each other and didn't say anything, when the elevator came and the three of us went inside.

The roommate casually clicked on the top, but the button never lit up. He was a little anxious and nodded wildly with his fingers. Lao Wang said: "You are wrong, it is not the 21st floor." ”

Let's take a closer look, it turns out that the button on the 21st floor is in second place. Lao Wang rubbed his hands and explained: "This building was built too early, there is a problem with the elevator design, and the top button is useless and useless." ”

The 21st floor is also very high, the design of the freight elevator is indeed lacking in morality, go to a layer and shake it, not yet to the fifteenth floor, I let the elevator shake straight disgusting, just like motion sickness. I finally endured it to the 21st floor, and when I got out of the elevator, I lay on the windowsill of the corridor, and I took a breath before I recovered.

The roommate stuck out his tongue to look at the environment here: "Fuck, Lao Liu, why did you find such an unlucky place." ”

I waved my hand: "It's a long story, help me move first." ”

The three of us ran upstairs and downstairs a few times, and finally piled all the things into the room, I looked at the messy room, and I was not in the mood to take care of it, and waved my hand: "Let's go, let's go drinking." ”

Lao Wang pinched his waist and walked back and forth in the room a few times: "Not bad, it's very clean." Xiao Liu, let's go eat with your friends. I still have to keep watch. If you really want to treat the old man, buy me some white food, and have a few chicken feet for dinner. ”

It was a little cold at night, so my roommate and I went downstairs to find a small hot pot restaurant outside the community, ordered a table of meat, came with a case of beer, and began to push the cup and change the cup to eat. He and I have been friends for many years, and there is no need to be polite, and we both ate without raising our heads or opening our eyes. This meal was enough to eat two points, the table was full of leftovers, the stomach was round, and the eyes were dazzled when drinking. He and I put our arms around each other's necks and burped. Although I drank too much, I didn't forget Lao Wang, I brought him chicken feet and pork knuckles, bought a bottle of liquor, and brought a pack of cigarettes.

I told my roommate to stay with me tonight, and you won't be able to drive. He shook his head violently, and said that I can't live in that haunted house unless I let the door clip it. I kicked him in the ass and told him to fuck off, and he staggered and took a taxi himself.

Entering the gate of the building, I put a plastic bag of delicious food and drink on Lao Wang's table, and after a few words with him, I prepared to go back to sleep. Lao Wang tore the cigarette open, sniffed the fragrance with his nose, and looked obscene: "Hehe, I didn't expect you kid to be quite good." I'll tell you one more thing, old man, don't go to the rooftop in the future. ”

"Why?" I squinted at him.

"The rooftop is quite evil. Legend, "He looked back and forth, in fact, the communication room was just the two of us, and he deliberately made a sense of tension: "Legend has it that there are hanged ghosts and jumping ghosts on the rooftop, and they wander and guard them, just to find a stand-in for themselves, so that they can be reincarnated." Lin Xia is the stand-in they are looking for. ”

I giggled: "I've heard of hanged ghosts, but I've never heard of jumping ghosts." Lao Wang, you, running the train with your mouth full, don't say a word of truth. ”

Lao Wang was angry: "I see that your young man is very good, and I kindly advise you." What did Shan Lao say, good words are hard to persuade damn ghosts. Go if you want. ”

I ignored him, scratched my crotch, pouted my ass and farted in the communication room, and took the elevator back in one step.

When I got to the 21st floor, when I got out of the elevator, I was in a daze and saw that everything was double-shadowed, and my heart was beating and my whole body was hot. I staggered down the hallway, trying to raise my hand to see what time it was, but my hands were so heavy that I couldn't lift them.

I don't know how to drink too much, lose consciousness and sleep in the hallway. It was so cold at night, some of the windows in the corridor were not closed tightly, and the wind was ventilated on all sides, so I would have to be seriously ill if I really slept here.

I was in a hurry, quickened my pace, and hurried home.

I didn't take two steps, and suddenly I heard a woman's sighing voice from a window on the right: "Alas......"

The sound came without warning, very suddenly, like cold water poured on my head, and my blood froze in a instant.

My joints stiffened, and I didn't dare to turn my neck for fear of seeing something terrible. My heart was beating wildly, and it took me a long time to reach out and hold on to the wall, and slowly turn my head to look.

On the right-hand side is a house, the door is closed, but there is a gap in the small skylight next to it. I rubbed my temples to see if it was an auditory hallucination or a real sound.

I recalled carefully, that sigh sounded long, as if there was a great deal of heart, that kind of sorrow and entanglement, it simply made the listener cry.

I looked at the house number of this resident, and it was okay not to look at it, but I was almost scared to pee. 2106.

2106 is the house where Lin Xia lived before her death.

I was covered in hairs that stood on end, I couldn't breathe, and I was almost suffocated by intense fear. At that time, I didn't know if I was too drunk or what, but I walked over slowly, leaned on the small skylight, and squinted my eyes to look into the room through the gap.

It was pitch black inside, and by the faint moonlight, there should be a kitchen in the skylight. The area is relatively small, and there is a full set of kitchen utensils on the cupboards, and it seems that no one has lived in this place for a long time, and it looks lifeless.

This is not scientific, Lin Xia jumped off the building this morning. She had been living here before jumping off the building, so how could she not have used the kitchen things?

I was thinking about it when I suddenly heard a voice in the room, and if there was any, it sounded like the wind. I leaned against the window, tilted my face and looked in, it was indeed limited by the angle, and I could only see the kitchen. Inside the kitchen door, there is a dark corner, and you can't see anything.

After watching it for a while, although I didn't see anything, I always felt hairy. This kind of heart-scratching feeling is very uncomfortable, like watching a shoddy horror movie, and you are always afraid that a woman's face will suddenly pop up and scare you.

I got down from the window, wiped my face heavily, hesitated, gritted my teeth, and walked to the door and pulled the handle. I'd like to try my luck once the police checked it today and the door was unlocked. After two tuggings, the door locked tightly. Only then did I realize that Lin Xia jumped to her death, and the room she lived in was not the scene of the crime, so there was no need for the police to check it. The city is so big, there are not a hundred but eighty who commit suicide in one day, which policeman will be idle to investigate why the infatuated girl jumped off the building.

Scratching my head, I suddenly woke up with a cold wind blowing from the window behind me, and I couldn't help but hug my shoulders and shiver.

Looking at this dark and silent corridor, I hurried home, and somehow, the more I walked, the more scared I became, and I always felt that there was something gloomy behind me. Maybe it was just to scare myself, but I ran faster and faster, and finally came to the door, unlocked it, and got into the newly moved house.

The room was deserted, empty, and cold to the touch. I looked at the strange and cold room, my heart was very uncomfortable, and I was touched by the scene for a while, thinking of the first half of my hopeless life, and a helpless and desolate mood came up.

I walked through the living room with my head down, opened the door and entered the room, looking at the mess of things, thinking that I would have to go to work tomorrow, and my mood was extremely low. I didn't bother to clean up, so I threw myself on the bed, lay on my stomach for a while, wanted to sleep but couldn't sleep, and turned over and sat up.

Pulling out my cigarette in the dark, I leaned back on the bedside and smoked. It was very dark in the room, only the faint red light on the cigarette butt flickered and flickered, and my eyes fell on an object in a box not far away.

It was a wolf-eye flashlight, bought on Taobao, and it was on sale at the time. After buying it, it didn't use it a few times, so I threw it in the corner and dusted it. Looking at the flashlight, my heart suddenly moved, and I remembered Lao Wang's words.

Lao Wang told me not to go up to the rooftop, I really want to go up and have a look!

But when I thought of the terrifying encounter just now, I lost my courage again. After lying on the bed for a while, the smoke was almost off, I rolled over and got out of bed, grabbed my flashlight. Push the button, and a bright light shoots out, leaving a large and dazzling spot of light on the wall.

I pulled the flashlight button back and forth, turned on and off, and after a few times, I made up my mind to go to the rooftop!

One is to take advantage of the strength of the wine, and the other is to be afraid that he will lose his courage in the future, anyway, if he is unlucky today, then he will be unlucky to the end.

I went out with a cigarette butt in my mouth, came to the corridor, and suddenly remembered something, they all said that the rooftop is on the roof, but where is the way to the rooftop?

I carefully recalled the structure of the entire floor, and my mind was cluttered with information, as if there was really no way to the rooftop.

But this is impossible, how did Linxia go up and jump off the building without Lu? Did it fly up?

The moon was hazy, the light on this floor was getting worse and worse, and the most terrifying thing was that the whole floor was silent, and I was the only one wandering in the hallway.

Could it be that I am the only resident on these 21 floors?

Thinking of this, I swallowed my saliva and felt a chill on the back of my neck. I regret it in my heart, how can I short-circuit this rented a house to live, I don't know how to use a few brushes, and I have a lot of fun. Alas, it's too late to say anything now.

I even had the urge to knock on doors to see if I was the only one here.

It's useless to think so much, I turned on the flashlight and started to check inch by inch from the elevator entrance, and I didn't believe that I couldn't find my way to the rooftop.

Not to mention, after a turn, I really found it.

The staircase was hidden in the black doorway I rented, and there were two bends to get in, the first one was the small hallway for the resident's room, and the second one ended in a black staircase.

It's a very strange design, and there is still a long space inside from the second turn, and it is empty, as if it took a lot of effort to design such a large space just to place the staircase to the rooftop.

I stood at the top of the stairs and looked up from the bottom with a flashlight, and the stairs continued to the top of the stairs after a corner about three or four meters.

I hesitated for a moment, spit out the cigarette butt in my mouth, and began to walk up.

The staircase is actually made of marble, not like the concrete floor below, which is a little slippery and hard to step on. The stairs are very clean, I shine the flashlight around, and I can't see a single clutter or dirty thing, as if someone is cleaning it up often.

Walking around the corner, I grabbed the handle and used a flashlight to shine a flashlight on the top and probe to see it, but it was pitch black and I couldn't see anything.

Standing still, I licked my lips and gritted my teeth and decided to keep going. At this moment, suddenly an unprecedented sensation hit the whole body like an electric current, and there was a strong premonition that something might happen.

was hesitating, and suddenly the mobile phone rang loudly, and such a tense moment was particularly harsh. I screamed in fright and almost sat down on the ground, and I didn't know what to do, but I suddenly remembered Li Damin.

Fuck, it can't be Li Damin calling me from the rooftop.
