For an entire day, Ryan spent almost a day looking around the houses in Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, North Hollywood, and so on, led by a real estate manager.

Oh, by the way, the estate manager was introduced by Helen.

However, of course, he chose not a luxury house, but a single-family apartment with better secrecy.

In fact, Ryan just fell in love with an apartment in North Hollywood, which is not small, with a three-story structure, luxurious decoration, and a high fence outside, and the secrecy is very much in line with his wishes.

However, the rent of this apartment is naturally expensive, with a monthly rent of up to $3,300, and Ryan rolled his eyes.

Now in 1994, the rent of $3,300 a month was ridiculously high, and he refused the offer of the real estate manager.

The real estate manager could only show a look of pity and continued to take him to choose a suitable apartment.

Eventually, in the northern part of Burbank, with the famous Nando Valley in the north and North Hollywood in the west, I finally took a fancy to a very good apartment, with two floors and two floors, all wooden structure, with a very simple design style and an area of more than 130 square meters.

The most important thing is that the apartment itself is a single-family apartment, with a small garden of more than 60 square meters in front of the courtyard door, and a high wooden fence outside, which is very good in terms of confidentiality.

What satisfies Ryan is that the plants planted in the yard can be evergreen all year round.

Of course, according to the living customs of the previous life, you can completely replace the plants inside with tomatoes, peppers and other vegetables, and then plant a big jujube tree or apricot tree.

In addition, the surrounding area is also very convenient, only five or six minutes from the California section of Highway Five, and only about ten minutes from the San Fernando Valley area to the north.

There are many large supermarkets around, and shopping is not a problem at all, or it is very convenient.

In addition, it is only about 20 kilometers away from Los Angeles, and the transportation is very convenient.

And the rent is also very reasonable, only $800 per month, which is unbelievably cheap.

Even if it was 1994, it would never be possible to find a single-family apartment like this in the Burbank area, even with a lantern on it.

The price is low, the area is large, and the transportation is convenient.

Such a house has not been rented out, and there is no problem to hell.

Looking at the apartment in front of him, although there were no luxurious decorations such as a swimming pool, it was very simple and atmospheric, Ryan nodded secretly in his heart, feeling very satisfied.

However, the real estate manager reminded him: "Mr. Ryan, although this apartment is very good, the rent is very cheap. ”

"But for Helen's sake, I must warn you that I do not recommend renting this apartment. ”

Not recommended to rent!

Ryan was slightly stunned, and then asked, "Why?"

"Or rather, what's wrong with this apartment!"

The property manager shrugged his shoulders, pointed to a room on the second floor, and said, "A few months ago, there was a homicide here. ”

"The owner of the apartment, because he was bankrupt and drunk, first shot and killed his girlfriend, and then shot himself. ”

"And, as far as I know, there have been more than one suicide in this apartment, and there are even rumors of being cursed by a witch. ”

After all, the real estate manager was introduced by Helen, so it was not good to hide this from Ryan.

It wasn't until last month that his sister came from Australia, renovated the apartment and handed it over to the property company. ”

"It's a pity that this matter has been in the newspapers, and even though the rent is very cheap, it still goes unnoticed. ”

It cannot be said that Americans are superstitious, but that people all over the world are similar, and no one wants to live in a place where homicide has occurred, and more than once someone has committed suicide.

What's more, there are rumors that he has been cursed by witches.

The curse of the witch in the United States can be described as famous, and in addition, "Blair the Witch" has been hyped up in recent times, and it is hellish to be able to rent it out.

Of course, there are other reasons, such as this is a rich area, and almost all people who can come and rent a house have a lot of income, so they will not be greedy for cheap and rent a homicide scene.

Hearing this, Ryan subconsciously glanced at the second floor, there was no eerie and terrifying feeling, but it was very ordinary.

If it were someone else, they would never consider renting such an apartment, even if it is very cheap.

Ryan was thinking about another question, "Saw Horror" could have been filmed here, and it might be a great selling point.

Homicide scene!

There has been more than one suicide!

An apartment rumored to have been cursed by a witch!

A proper murderous mansion, and even a rare and good place.

Oh wrong, it should be a great place to shoot horror movies.

As for living!

Ryan is barely acceptable, there are a few people in the old house he lived in in his previous life who have not died!

If you care about that, I'm afraid it's hard to find the right place.

Besides, it's a big deal that when the filming is over, you can change to another apartment.

"Very nice murder house. ”

"$500, as soon as the price drops to $500, I'll rent it. ”

Looking at the single-family apartment in front of him, Ryan felt more and more suitable for filming "Chainsaw".

What could be better publicity than a murderous house.

The real estate manager looked at Ryan with a surprised face, what is a good murder house!

It's hard to say, I can't do it if I like a murderous house!

However, as a qualified property manager, it is natural that such a request will not be refused.

"$500 a month is too low, at least $650 a month, and a one-time payment of a year's rent. ”

Ryan didn't hesitate and happily agreed.

"Yes, then we can sign the contract now. ”

"I want to move in as soon as possible and experience it. Ryan said with a pensive expression.

What the?

Try it!

The real estate manager's face changed, what did he want to experience? whether he wanted to experience the murder scene, or the rumored witch curse, and the recent witch hoax.

He glanced at Ryan secretly, and said in his heart that he was another idiot chasing witches, and hoped that he would not be scared to pee his pants at night, and that he would have to remind Helen that he should not come here for the night at night.

Well, it's better not to come here during the day.

"No problem at all, you can take care of all the formalities today. ”

"I just cleaned the side a few days ago and can move in at any time. ”

No matter which real estate company it is, the speed of handling the procedures for the murderous house is fast and scary, and there will be no delay.

So as not to regret it.

That afternoon, Ryan signed a formal lease contract with the real estate company and paid off a year's rent of $7,800 on the spot, which made him inevitably feel a little distressed.

The only thing that's okay is that he gets the keys to the apartment and can move in at any time.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Ryan hired a moving company to bring some luggage, and Sophia Coppola, who worked as a part-time assistant coolie, naturally became the first guest.

Of course, in addition to the identity of the guest, it is inevitable that you need to help tidy up things.

In fact, Ryan's personal belongings are not very large, only a few changes of clothes, but some small shooting equipment, and some cutting tools, which need to be transported by a moving company.

It took more than an hour to finish.

Sofia Coppola was not a lady, lying on the sofa in the living room, complaining, "I really shouldn't have listened to Helen to apply for your assistant." ”

"These jobs should be done by your girlfriend or maid, not an assistant. ”

Ryan spread his hands and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, I don't have a girlfriend for the time being, and I don't have enough time to find a maid." ”

"Besides, you should feel honored as a friend, after all, you are my first guest. ”

"Well, very distinguished guest. ”

Sofia Coppola couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this, coolies are coolies, and honorable guests, is there a master who makes guests work?

"So as a distinguished guest, shouldn't the host have a celebratory treat? ”

Ryan agreed and said, "No problem, you can go now." ”
