Speaking of which, who with the money would be willing to rent a house where cooking, bathing, and going to the toilet are inconvenient, and even the tap water faucet is in the yard? There are tall and short buildings everywhere. Even if you rent in a shared apartment, you still have to rent an indoor one with a kitchen and bathroom.
Only people like her and He Min, who mainly focus on saving money, would move in happily. Of course, this place is very close to where He Min works, and not far away is a high school. There is also a night market, which is suitable for her to set up a stall every night and sell small jewelry and gadgets wholesale from the Internet.
Middle school students who love beauty but don’t have much money.
Yesterday, He Min went out to play with her best friend. She originally agreed to come back last night, but in the afternoon, she called again and said she couldn't come back, and asked her if she was afraid. She laughed and said at the time, "Do you think I am as timid as you?" However, in the past two days, she still consciously did not go to the night market and closed the door early.
But now, in this courtyard where she was obviously the only one, why was there the sound of running water?
Could it be that she forgot to turn it off? Or is the water pipe broken? Well, if the water pipe is broken,
If we can't find anyone to repair it this late at night, how much national water resources will be wasted? The point is...a waste of her money!
Lan suddenly put down his book, slowly put on his slippers, walked to the living room, and directly pressed the door light switch without turning on the living room light.
light is on!
The sound of rushing water is gone!
Lan suddenly shook his head, raised his hand and turned off the light. Just as he was about to walk back, he heard the sound of water starting again.
Turn on the lights again! The sound of water stopped!
Turn off the lights again! It's roaring again!
Lan was stunned for a moment, what a coincidence!
It’s really infuriating!
She still didn't believe it, there really were monsters and ghosts in this world!
The door light turned on again with a "pop" sound, and Lan suddenly opened the door and walked out. The water pipe in the center of the yard was in good condition, without even a drop of water. But the sound of running water was still there. This time, it didn't stop just because she turned off the light.
Lan suddenly began to look around for the source of the sound. She searched the entire yard and found no running water. The bathing shed was also dry. She went to the door of the room that she and He Min had left unused and listened. The sound was not from there. Those who came out of there ran to the doorways of the west and east rooms and stood there for a while, but the noise did not come from those two rooms.
Lan suddenly heard the sound of running water and stubbornly came up. She couldn't find where the sound of water came from, so she didn't go back to the house. Just looking around, I finally saw a few flowing dark shadows on the neighbor's wall.
Damn it! Lan suddenly cursed secretly in her heart - she usually just cursed secretly, but she was a gentle lady on the surface - it turned out to be the neighbor's voice. It was probably because the water heater was broken or something, and the water was dripping along the eaves and walls. Clatter.
But he really knows how to turn on and off the lights according to her rhythm! If she hadn't believed in evil... Lan suddenly couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, thinking mischievously that if it was He Min who was alone at home today, he would probably be scared to tears.
Returning to the living room, he first locked the door from the inside and turned off the door light. Lan suddenly didn't even bother to lift his feet, and shuffled towards the bedroom. As soon as he stood at the door of the bedroom, his heartbeat almost stopped with fear.
Then...that person sitting on her bed, lazily leaning on the quilt, holding a book in his hand, and reading it with amusement, what on earth is...?
The man seemed to have heard the footsteps and stopped, turning his head and looking at her expressionlessly.
He is very handsome and seems a bit cool, but of course he may be pretending to be cool.
"How did you get in?" Lan suddenly asked sharply. Her voice had always been soft, and this "sharp" voice was just a little louder, not intimidating.
"I can come in however I want." The man raised the corner of his mouth and said with a bad smile. "Nothing can stop me."
Your sister! You actually want to pretend to be a ghost and scare me! Lan suddenly cursed in his heart.
right! She is a well-educated, educated and quality lady, and she usually just curses in her heart when she makes vulgar words.
"You don't seem scared?" The man raised his eyebrows, showing a bit of interest.
"It's less frightening than seeing someone who looks like me on the bed." Lan suddenly snorted, still thinking about the ghost story he hadn't finished yet. "Okay! I don't care how you got in, you can go."
"I'm a private detective." The man said softly, and the expression on his face became serious.
"Ah?" Lan responded suddenly and quickly looked around. There was no sign that the room had been turned over, but her voice still sounded a little worried. "Um, um, did He Min get into trouble?"
"Who is He Min? Your boyfriend?" the man asked.
"Who sent you here?" Lan Suran did not answer the man's question. He felt relieved when he heard that he was not here to cause trouble for He Min.
On the surface, she is a good girl who won't get into trouble, except she doesn't like to follow the path arranged by others.
Her parents would never hire a private investigator.
"I……"
As soon as the man opened his mouth, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Is anyone here?" A very polite voice said.
"Don't say you've seen me!" The man threw down the book in his hand, stood up immediately, looked around, and found that there seemed to be no place to hide in the room. He looked at Lan Suran helplessly and spread his hands slightly. "Shall I kidnap you, or will you find me a hiding place?"
"Of course I'll find you a hiding place." After all, it's easier to hide someone than to be kidnapped. Lan suddenly said, his eyes falling on a large cardboard box in the room.
The box was left by the landlord. It was the outer packaging of the washing machine. The reason why she and He Min didn't throw it away was to contain recyclable items, such as mineral water bottles and cans that could be sold for money. Originally, the two of them planned to move the box to the living room in the past two days, but they just talked about it and then forgot about it. Fortunately, they just sold it for more than two yuan a few days ago, and there is nothing in it now.
Only then did Lan suddenly realize that although this man's legs were quite long, he was limping when he walked. Fortunately, there were no blood stains on the road he walked, otherwise he would have been in trouble.
Seeing the man huddled in the box in frustration, Lan suddenly walked to the living room, took down the clothes she had just washed today, and threw them into the box. He brushed the bangs that were blocking his eyes with his hand and tried to look calm. Then he came to the door, turned on the lights in the living room and the door, and asked the still unrelenting knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
I feel like my voice has been modified quite well, as if I just woke up.
"Please open the door first." The voice of the person knocking on the door was quite pleasant, with an ethereal feeling.
Forehead!
