Chapter 1: Ma'am, You Don't Want to ......

Next Chapter

"This lady, you don't want to be kicked out, do you!"

"So, do you have to pay last month's rent?"

Li Mu was wearing a property uniform, holding a stack of forms in his hand, and said politely.

In front of me is an old-fashioned security door that is starting to peel off its paint.

The door opened a crack, and the light seemed to be on inside, and it was pitch black.

"Rent ......"

A slightly hoarse female voice came from the crack in the door.

"Can you be forgiving for a few days?"

"I'm not in good health these days, and I can't go out to earn money."

"In a few days...... I'll be sure to hand over the money in a few days! ”

The woman pleaded.

As he spoke, the crack in the door opened a little wider.

A cold wind blew through the crack in the door.

Goosebumps instantly appeared on Li Mu's body, and he immediately took a small step back.

"The ......"

"Ma'am, you know our rules here."

"If everyone is like you, how can we still run this apartment."

"Tomorrow is the deadline, and I hope the lady can make up the rent in time, otherwise...... I'll have to ask the security guard to clear the people out. ”

Li Mu still remained polite, but there was a slight threat in his words.

It's not that Li Mu is unkind, he's just a part-time worker.

If you can't get the job done, you're probably the one who is out of luck.

In the face of these tenants who did not pay rent on time, Li Mu could only grit his teeth and be ruthless.

"Don't !!"

"My permit has expired, and if you kick me out, it will be like killing me......"

"Please, as long as you don't drive me away, let me do anything!"

The woman behind the crack in the door pleaded.

Anything goes......

Li Mu shuddered again, and some kind of picture appeared in his mind......

No, no, absolutely not!

Li Mu did not hesitate at all, and decisively drew a cross in his mind.

Although Li Mu is still a manual transmission, this kind of thing is not something that can be solved casually.

Especially the residents here...... Li Mu didn't dare to try it at will.

Squeak –

The doorshaft groaned.

The crack in the door opened wider.

A few white knuckles came out from behind the door and slammed into the panel.

The sharp nails were slightly yellowed, and a slight stroke made a few marks on the door panel.

Click.....

The woman's fingers tapped lightly on the door.

Li Mu's heartbeat also gradually became faster with the tapping.

"Little Brother ......"

"Why don't you come in and sit down for a while?"

"Although my throat is overworked and I can't serve for the time being, I still have my hands!"

"I'll make sure you're satisfied!"

Behind the crack in the door, the woman slowly revealed half of her face.

His pale skin was covered with cyan veins, his dark pupils occupied his entire eye socket, and his long black hair was draped down like a waterfall, swaying slightly in the cold wind.

"Ahem, ahem...... Madam, please respect yourself, I'm still a child! ”

Li Mu looked at the pair of Flandi-like hands and decisively refused.

Being served by this hand, let's not talk about happiness or not, it's good to be able to stay intact.

Li Mu didn't want to be a flawed person.

"This ......"

"Hey......"

The woman behind the crack in the door sighed, a brief sigh full of loss.

After a brief silence, the woman closed the door.

The gloomy and cold breath was cut off by the door panels.

Li Mu seemed to have crawled out of the icy lake water, soaking wet, and let out a sigh of relief from the corridor.

Although it has been several years since he crossed over, Li Mu still felt a little uncomfortable when he came into contact with these strange creatures.

It's about the same as Blue Star, with the only difference being ......

There are many strange creatures in this world.

A few years ago, when the first strange creatures appeared, the world was in a panic.

Thousands of humans die every day at the hands of strange creatures.

Over time, people have become familiar with and understood the habits of these strange creatures.

It has been discovered that these strange creatures all have their own weaknesses and are not invincible.

The counterattack began from there.

In less than a year, all the strange creatures that endangered society were captured and killed, and only a relatively mild fraction survived.

There is a lot of disagreement between the parties on the issue of dealing with this part of the strange creatures.

Some people believe that strange creatures should be exterminated to avoid posing a threat to human society.

Some people believe that these monsters are just like animals, and it is inhumane to slaughter them.

When the dispute continued, some treacherous organizations appeared one after another.

They occupy the transportation arteries of various cities, hold banners aloft and fight for the rights of these strange creatures.

For a time, society was at a standstill, even worse than when the strange creatures first appeared.

After several meetings, the leaders finally made a decision:

As long as these strange creatures take the initiative to provide their weaknesses and regularly register with the relevant authorities, they are allowed to live in human society.

In this way, the strange creatures were given the opportunity to integrate into human society.

In order to survive, these spoocks begin to try to find work.

Moving bricks, 996 part-time jobs, weird live broadcasts......

Even some special industries have begun to appear weird.....

The apartment where Li Mu is located is specially rented to weird.

The rent is not high, and ordinary part-time workers can afford it.

Occasionally, however, there will be rent arrears.

Like the lady in room 203 just now.

She is in the custom industry.

Although he looks rather crazy, he relied on a weird gimmick and a flexible tongue full of suckers, and he was busy closing his mouth for a while.

But after a long time, her business began to decline.

After all, not everyone has the guts to try it out.

Moreover, the strange creatures in life are becoming more and more common, and the effect of her gimmicks is constantly decreasing.

In recent months, her business has become so bad that she can't pay her rent.

Li Mu didn't have the idea of helping her.

Because of the charter of this building...... It's my cousin.

If you can't receive the rent smoothly, you may face a woman who is even more terrible than weird......

"There is still a family to demand...... 206。 ”

"It's time to call it a day when you're done."

Li Mu glanced at the form in his hand, and then looked out of the corridor.

The sky was orange and red, and the sun was about to set.

Li Mu frowned slightly.

The first point of the property safety manual is...... Try not to linger in the hallway after dark.

The creepy creatures all have different characteristics, but one thing they all have in common is that their mood becomes less stable after dark.

Although these weirdos usually behave very honestly, it is inevitable that there will be some uncontrollable situations.

In an old-fashioned apartment building full of weird creatures, it's better to be cautious.

Li Mu quickened his pace and walked to the door of room 206.

This household is inhabited by a smoker, and after smoking, he gains far more strength than ordinary people.

Usually, this smoker will go to the construction site to do some casual labor, relying on his strength, the income is not bad.

But the cost of a cigarette a day made him, like the lady in 203, often in arrears of rent.

Li Mu stretched out his hand and knocked on the door.

No response.

"Mr. Zhang, don't hide inside and keep quiet, I know you're at home."

"If you don't open the door again, I'm going to use the administrator key to open the door and come in!"

Li Mu continued to knock on the door as he spoke.

The nature of this apartment is special and the property has the keys to all the residents.

In case of any special circumstances, the property is eligible to break down directly.

Li Mu slapped more than a dozen times, but there was still no movement behind the door.

Li Mu decisively took out the keychain hanging on his waist.

Looking at the keyhole, Li Mu's heartbeat began to accelerate.

After all, it was a strange creature living inside, and Li Mu didn't dare to go in.

Outside the hallway, the sky was getting dark.

Li Mu looked at the fading red glow, and couldn't help but start to get nervous.

If you don't hurry up, you'll be walking through this strange corridor in the night!

"I'm at the door, so I can't get in, it shouldn't be fine."

Li Mu comforted himself in his heart and plucked up his courage.

Click......

The brass-colored key slowly inserted into the keyhole, rubbed through the narrow passage, and soon reached the cylinder.

Li Mu twisted slightly.

The lock is open.

Li Mu retreated and slowly opened the door.

A strong smell of smoke wafted out, Li Mu frowned slightly, and raised his index finger to block it under his nose.

This smoker smokes one cigarette a day, and the whole room is smoked.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm in!"

Li Mu shouted at the door.

This sentence was deliberately shouted by Li Mu to the inside.

If that smoker was at home, he wouldn't have been unresponsive when he heard that.

It's better to be able to force people out with your mouth than to go in and check it out yourself.

A few seconds passed, and there was no reaction in the room, only a faint dripping sound coming from the direction of the toilet.

"It's not really not home......"

Li Mu muttered.

The structure of this apartment is one bedroom and one bathroom, so you can see it at a glance.

In addition to the toilet......

"That guy...... I don't think I'm hiding in the toilet......"

Li Mu glanced at the door of the toilet and swallowed his saliva.

It was almost dark, and Li Mu didn't have the courage to enter the home of the strange creature.

But......

If my cousin knew about it, I didn't even confirm that the tenant was not at home......

Li Mu hesitated for a moment between Wei Wei and his cousin, and looked at the toilet decisively.

The toilet is only half a step from the door.

If you just reach out and open the door, you don't even need to enter the house.

"I'll just reach out and go into the house, there shouldn't be any danger......"

Li Mu took a deep breath and reached for the doorknob of the toilet.

Just as Li Mu's hand crossed the door frame, a strange touch suddenly came from the side of his wrist.

Like ......

Something dripping and rubbing right across the skin.

Li Mu was shocked and immediately looked at his wrist.

A thin red line!

It's blood!

Blood is dripping from above!

Li Mu froze in place as if he had been struck by lightning, and his dangling arms trembled uncontrollably......
