After chatting for a while, Jeremy began to introduce the situation in a low voice.
"Sean, I rented an apartment in this apartment building and have successfully moved in."
“The apartment is on the third floor, facing the street, with good views and good conditions inside the apartment.”
"However, nearly two-thirds of the apartments in this apartment building are empty and not rented out, making them look empty."
"According to the investigation, the current owner of this building, a prince from the Qatari royal family, does not care that most of the apartments are empty."
Hearing this, Xiao Ran suddenly chuckled.
"This building belongs to a prince from the Qatari royal family? Isn't it surprising?"
"They have endless petrodollars, so why would they care about a building like this?"
"Come on, let's go into this apartment building and take a look. You can continue to introduce the situation."
After saying that, the two of them walked into the apartment building.
There was a security guard inside the apartment building door, as well as a management staff member.
Since Jeremy was a resident in the building, they did not stop him, thinking that Xiao Ran was Jeremy's friend.
After entering the apartment building, Jeremy continued to introduce the situation in a low voice.
"There are very few residents in this apartment building. There are only three apartments on the third floor where I live, and the rest are empty."
"The situation on the other floors is similar. It is working time now, so there are fewer people in the apartment building and it is empty."
"As far as I know, the apartment you are paying attention to, the apartment where the Jacobin leader Robespierre once lived, is on the third floor."
“During the French Revolution, the Committee of Public Safety nationalized this apartment building and Robespierre moved in here.”
"He lived here until early June 1794, when he ceased serving on the Committee of Public Safety, and moved there."
"The following July 1794, the Thermidor coup occurred, the Jacobin dictatorship was overthrown, and Robespierre was pushed to the guillotine."
Xiao Ran nodded slightly and then continued:
"When I was studying history in middle school, I was very interested in this legendary incorruptible man."
"I'm here for him today. I hope this incorruptible one can bring an unexpected surprise."
While they were talking, the two of them had already reached the third floor, and then walked into Jeremy's newly rented apartment.
After entering the apartment, Xiao Ran quickly took a look at the situation inside the apartment.
This apartment has two bedrooms and one living room, with an area of about 80 square meters. It has a kitchen, bathroom, and all necessary furniture.
The decoration style in the apartment is consistent with the style of the building, which is Baroque, but slightly outdated.
Looking out the window of the living room of the apartment is the bustling Avenue Saint-Michel.
After scanning the inside of the apartment, Xiao Ran nodded and said:
“This apartment is really nice, with great location, convenient transportation and nice scenery.”
"The building is in very good condition inside and outside. If it weren't for Robespierre's fear, the apartments here would definitely be very popular."
Upon hearing this, Jeremy nodded immediately.
"Indeed, the French are afraid of and unwilling to mention Robespierre, resulting in the apartments in this building being more than one-third lower than the normal market price."
"The people who live here are basically people from foreign countries or other provinces who came to Paris. There are no locals in Paris. Even poor students don't want to live here."
"Another reason why Parisians don't want to live here is that this apartment building is said to be haunted, and people can often hear screams and crying in the middle of the night."
"On social media and the Internet, there are many ghost stories related to this building. Many people say that it was the people who were killed by Robespierre crying and screaming."
Having said this, Jeremy immediately looked around cautiously, looking guilty.
Seeing his performance, Xiao Ran couldn't help but laugh.
"I have never believed in those so-called ghost stories. Even if there are various strange events, such as crying and screaming in the middle of the night, they must be tricks done by people to achieve some ulterior purpose."
"Of course, there may also be natural reasons, such as the angle of the building, terrain factors, or hidden underground caves. When the air flows rapidly through these places, various frightening sounds will be made."
"For us, the more deserted this apartment building is, the better, and the weirder it is, the better. If I find something here, it will be much easier to buy this apartment building, and the price will be much lower."
"Jeremy, if you are worried about the various haunted legends here and don't want to live here, then go back to the hotel, but be careful and try not to attract other people's attention."
Before he finished speaking, Jeremy's face turned red.
Needless to say, this guy is a little afraid of the various haunting legends in this apartment building.
Next, he introduced some other situations.
The current owner of this apartment building is a Qatari prince who bought the apartment building five years ago.
Needless to say, this foolish and wealthy prince of Qatar was deceived by the French and was brutally stabbed.
The building he bought at a high price looked good, but he couldn't rent it out at all.
Neither locals in Paris nor outsiders and foreigners who know the situation will rent apartments here.
Only those guys who have just arrived in Paris will rent here without knowing it because the apartments in this building are cheap.
Once they have established themselves in Paris and understand the situation, they will move out and find another place to live, even if it costs more money.
As a result, apartment buildings have few residents, but they are very mobile, and few people rent here for a long time.
Fortunately, the Qatari prince was not short of money at all, and he did not care about the rental income, and he kept the place running.
The rental income from the small number of apartments in the building and the shops downstairs is estimated to be just enough to cover various expenses and staff wages, so it can still be sustained.
While maintaining the situation, the Qatari prince was also waiting for the next victim to appear so that he could transfer this apartment building that everyone despised.
But little did he know what amazing secrets were hidden in this apartment building.
Perhaps it was for privacy reasons and to avoid getting into trouble.
There are no surveillance cameras installed in the corridors of this apartment building.
The only few surveillance probes are installed in public areas such as the building entrance, lobby, stairwell, back door, and back garden.
For Xiao Ran, this is undoubtedly another favorable condition.
After a while, Jeremy had finished introducing the situation.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran thought for a moment, and then said to this guy:
"Jeremy, I'm going to walk around this apartment building, including the other floors, the back garden, and the garage, to see if I can find anything."
"If the apartment manager doesn't see it, it's the best thing. If he sees it, tell him that I'm checking the environment here and maybe rent a few apartments here as staff dormitories."
Jeremy instantly understood what he meant, smiled and nodded.
"I understand, let's use the same approach!"
"The administrator and guard downstairs are very lazy. If you don't call them, they won't go upstairs. You can rest assured."
"That's the best thing. I'll take action. Just stay in the apartment and pretend to clean up the room."
Xiao Ran nodded and said.
With that, he walked out of the apartment and began to explore this apartment building that Parisians considered haunted.
The first time he came to the corridor, he looked at the door of an apartment at the other end of the corridor.
During the French Revolution, it was Robespierre's residence.
The secret hidden in that apartment, once revealed, will surely cause a sensation in France and the entire Western world.
