Chapter 1 The Murderous House Sleeper

Next Chapter

Looking up at the scorching sun hanging in the sky, but I still felt cold, standing on the street, watching the traffic on the road, watching the laughter between couples, the play between friends, the family affection, this city is very lively, but my heart is very quiet.

As a post-90s generation, I live in a society with a declining economy. I'm so poor now that I can't even afford instant noodles.

My name is Zhou Tao, I am 28 years old this year, of course, I prefer that I am still 18, so that I can continue to hide in the harbor at home, without having to face this extremely cruel society and reality.

Zhou Tao, who has graduated for four years, has also been beaten by the society for four years, just graduated, he did a pyramid scheme for a year, and owed a lot of debt, about 100,000 yuan, which is also a huge amount of money for Zhou Tao, who just graduated, Zhou Tao changed countless jobs one after another, and today he resigned again and stopped working.

As for why? It's very bloody to say, even more bloody than the horse stepping TV series.

And this bloody plot made the already poor Zhou Tao even worse, and became the last straw that crushed the camel.

There are only more than 1,000 yuan in his pocket, this is also his last family background and face, and now Zhou Tao urgently needs a job for money, and he has to hide it from his parents if he loses his job, otherwise, how sad they should be.

Zhou Tao, who was in a heavy mood, wandered aimlessly, walked and walked, walked into a remote alley, and at the entrance of the alley he saw a propaganda poster painted with bells and whistles, which wrote that the salary was high-paying to recruit a murderer in the house, the salary was negotiable, at least 1000 or more, the work was simple, safe and secure, and the application requirements: bold, able to stay up late, if you are interested, please call 000000

Murderous house sleeper? Zhou Tao has also heard of this job before, that is, some houses that have had unnatural deaths, such as homicide and suicide, are collectively referred to as murder houses, and the sleep testers of this murder house are to sleep in this house for one night, or a few days, to prove that this house is free of ghosts, and it is generally done in real estate, and a small part of it is a private test.

But now there are so many liars, will I be deceived, Zhou Tao thought secretly, but when he turned his head, he laughed at himself, what else could he deceive except this rotten life.

But what he didn't know was that when the call was made, a big net had opened up to him.

Without any further hesitation, Zhou Tao dialed the contact number, and soon the phone was connected, "Hey, hello!" A delicate and beautiful female voice came from the other side of the phone, "Hello, are you still recruiting people here?" I saw on the poster that you are recruiting a murderer on the poster," Zhou Tao asked with some apprehension.

"Wait a minute, I'll take a look" Then there was a sound of tapping on the keyboard, and after a while, there was a voice, "Sir, now the sleeping tester of the murderous house is still recruiting, if you are interested, you can go to No. 8, the tenth floor of Yuning Building, Imperial Street at 12 o'clock in the evening to go for an interview, you can't come early!" ”

"Okay, thank you!" Zhou Tao hung up the phone after thanking him, in Ba City, although he is not a map, but basically these relatively large commercial buildings and office buildings he can still find, but this Yuning Building has never heard of it, with a skeptical attitude, Zhou Tao opened the map of 1000 degrees, searched for Yuning Building, unexpectedly, there is really such a place, he shook his head secretly, "Although I have lived in this city for more than 20 years, it seems that there are places I don't know."

looked at the time, it was already more than 6 o'clock, and seeing that the time was still early, Zhou Tao was ready to go back to eat and rest, take a good rest, and leave a good impression on the examiner at night, as for the interview after 12 o'clock in the evening, he was not surprised, after all, he was recruiting a murderous house sleep tester, presumably this time interview is also a test, to see if the interviewer is bold enough, if this level can not pass, then the so-called interview will become a joke.

After returning home, Zhou Tao soaked the last bucket of instant noodles, and searched the Internet for information about the sleeping tester in the murder house, after all, there is an interview at night, and it is likely to become his job in the future, so it doesn't hurt to know more.

Actually, this matter has to start with Alifa Pai.

Shoot everything on the Internet, and of course the murderous house is among them.

There is a murder house that needs to be auctioned, but after all, there has been a murder, and the chances of it being sold smoothly are not very good.

It just so happens that live streaming is popular now, and the court thought that it would be better to do a live broadcast, even if the house is not sold, at least it can still be popularized!

So at 10 a.m. on November 9, a judge and an anchor appeared together in the live broadcast room of Alifa Auction, and the anchor will conduct a 24-hour live broadcast of sleep test in the murder house.

Oh, by the way, the reason why this house became a murderous house is because the owner of the house once owed a huge gambling debt that he could not repay, so he committed suicide by burning charcoal at home.

Although it is a murderous house, before the live broadcast, the owner's wife and children were still living in the house.

During these 24 hours, the anchor did not lie down all the time, as a professional anchor, he had to introduce the house and the living experience to everyone.

For example, go to the toilet with a flashlight in the middle of the night, lift a pole in the living room to exercise, go to the bedroom to look in the mirror, and so on.

Although the anchor is very hardworking, the 50,000 viewers are also very enthusiastic.

But it's a pity that the big splash just didn't make a sound, 50,000 people watched the live broadcast, and none of them made a bid.

This murderous house was unsold.

In fact, this house is not bad, with a total area of 82.58 square meters, two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, with good transparency and lighting from north to south, the starting price is 1.2 million, the deposit is 240,000 yuan, and the increase is 6,000 yuan.

According to the judge, the starting price of 1.2 million yuan is almost one-third lower than the market price, and the house has a good house type and good lighting, which is especially suitable for first-hand needs.

But why is no one buying such a good house, is it really haunted?

The answer is, I don't have the money, I can't afford it, because the rules say that once you take a picture, you have to pay the balance within a week.

Just buy a house in full.

Pay 1.2 million at once, which one can get it? can get 1.2 million, who can look up to the murderous house.

What's more, legal filming is not a child's play, in case it was filmed with passion at the time, and after calming down, I felt that I didn't want to buy it, then I would be fined.

For this kind of behavior that disrupts the normal auction, the individual shall be fined less than 100,000 yuan, and the unit shall be fined more than 50,000 yuan and less than 1 million yuan.

You say, who can withstand this?

Although the murderous house can't afford it, netizens unexpectedly discovered that the profession of the murderous house sleep tester seems to be good.

Earn money lying down, and the salary is high.

Hey, it seems that the murderous house is really good to try to sleep, and there are no such exaggerated supernatural events.

But this job is not as I thought, just sleep all night, and I have to work at night, I said that the poster said that you should be able to stay up late!

So what exactly is the work to do, let's move on.

Your employer might call you at 1 a.m. and ask you to get your dressing in the mirror; At 2 o'clock, let you listen to the bedroom floor to see if there is any marbles; At 3 o'clock, go to the kitchen to see if the gas will spontaneously combust and so on.

After having a certain understanding of the work of the murder house sleep tester, Zhou Tao looked at the time again, it was already 10:23 in the evening, because Yuning Building was still some distance away from the house he rented, at this time, plus the road there was not easy to walk, and there were often traffic jams, it was estimated that it was almost 12 o'clock.

So Zhou Tao opened Didi and made an appointment with a car, briefly cleaned himself, took his mobile phone, and found a folding knife to take with him, after all, it was really good to go to the interview so late, if you meet a scammer, you can use it to defend yourself.

After bringing all the things, Zhou Tao walked downstairs.

After waiting for a while, the online car-hailing also arrived, and there was nothing to say all the way, and finally at 11:35, Zhou Tao arrived downstairs of the Yuning Building, got out of the car, and looked at the dark building hidden in the night, as if it was a huge monster standing there, which was really a little scary in the middle of the night.

The building in front of him looked a little old, the skin of the outer wall was a little peeling, and it was about 20 floors by sight, he took a deep breath to stabilize his mind and walked towards the inside of the building.

"Come on, young man!" The online car-hailing uncle, who had not spoken all the way, looked at Zhou Tao's back after he got out of the car, smiled, and spit out these words, and then the driver uncle disappeared out of thin air with the Audi car.

"Crunch" pushed open the door of the building, and suddenly the old gate made a tooth-sour sound.

The hall is pitch black, probably because the employees have already left work, so only the safety exit indication is still lit with a faint green light, which adds a little weirdness to the already quiet building.

However, Zhou Tao, who is already poor and crazy, doesn't know what fear is at the moment, even if he is not afraid of death, he is still afraid of ghosts? But it's impossible not to be nervous.

He turned on the flashlight on his phone and got on the elevator.

When he pressed the button on the tenth floor, Zhou Tao saw that the building had a total of 18 floors, "This is about the same as I expected." Zhou Tao muttered to himself.

Just as he pressed the button on the 10th floor and the elevator went up, the originally empty hall suddenly lit up with red lights, and there were two more doormen in suits at the dilapidated gate.

"Ding" arrived on the 10th floor, the elevator door slowly opened, revealing the dark corridor outside, Zhou Tao did not rush out of the elevator, first turned on the built-in flashlight of the mobile phone that had been holding it in his hand, and shone outside.

Don't laugh at me, you can't be too careful at 12 midnight in this uninhabited and strange building.

The elevator closed slowly, and Zhou Tao nervously observed the surroundings, but when he was looking around, at the moment when the elevator closed, a woman wearing a cheongsam suddenly appeared in the elevator, looked at his back, and nodded slightly.

"Number 8, where is this office number 8?" Zhou Tao walked in front of an office door, shining a flashlight on the door, and saw that it said 23, "This should be Office 23, but the door of this office is too broken!" "The door of the No. 23 No. 3 office in front of me is a red wooden solid wood door, which is usually common in the company, but the color is not as red as this.

I saw that the vermilion lacquered wooden door that opened the door was full of scratches and even pits.

Because he was far away, the light on his phone was not clear, so he took two steps forward to look more closely.
