We called the police.

The police came soon.

Murder cases are usually big ones, so a lot of people came from the police.

There are forensics, there are trace examinations, there are on-site investigations.

They also brought some professional tools and dismantled the wardrobe and the walls.

We were all on site, witnessing the entire process of demolishing the wall, and also saw the owner of the 'humanoid'.

It was a woman. I don’t know how long she had been dead, but it must have been a long time, because the body had turned into white bones. Because the long hair like withered grass was still there, the gender could be distinguished.

When the mummy was carried out, a putrid and unpleasant smell instantly filled the entire room.

I've never smelled anything so bad, I can't even describe it.

And probably because of the cement, the clothes on this mummy were completely preserved.

After seeing the clothes the mummy was wearing, Meng Yifan and I both collapsed to the ground in fear.

Black dress, red high heels...

Isn't this exactly what the girl who knocked on the door was wearing?

"vomit--"

A few of us went straight to the toilet to vomit.

The only toilet was occupied by the four of us, and we went in one after another to vomit.

Meng Yifan and I vomited the most, not only because we saw the appearance of the mummy and smelled the unpleasant smell.

More importantly, the owner of the mummy has been dead for so many years, and we probably saw her last night...

A female corpse was unearthed at the scene. Mr. Hu was shocked and angry. He got angry at the scene and kept scolding us, saying that we lacked virtue to sell him such a vicious house.

He scolded us so much that even the police could not stop him.

But to be honest, we were also very wronged in this matter.

Because we had no idea anything had happened to this house, let alone that there was a body hidden in this house.

As an intermediary, we are only responsible for connecting sellers and buyers. Although we have an obligation to inform, the prerequisite is that we know that something has happened to the house.

In the end, Mr. Hu made a big fuss and alerted the nearby neighbors. The police could not take notes for us on the spot, so they had to ask the police officers to take us back to the police station first.



On this day, Meng Yifan and I never stopped talking.

We first went to the police station and cooperated with the police to complete the transcript.

Originally we could leave after finishing the notes, but Mr. Hu refused to let us go.

He has two demands. One is that we check out, and the other is that we compensate him for the loss of 200,000 yuan.

The 200,000 yuan included the renovation costs of the house and the mental damages for him and his wife.

There is no need to talk about checking out. As a matter of fact and reason, the seller must refund the house because they are selling a haunted house.

As an intermediary, we also have to refund the intermediary fees to people.

But Meng Yifan refused to compensate for the loss of 200,000 yuan. After all, it was a large amount of money.

The police have completed the first round of investigation and initially ruled out several of us, including Mr. Hu, as suspects, so we have nothing to do with this corpse hiding case.

As for the dispute between Mr. Hu and our store, it is a civil dispute, so the police transferred the dispute to the local police station for handling.

So we just came out of the police station and entered the police station again.

The police station tried to mediate with us all day long, but no results came out of the mediation until dark.

The seller has now been summoned by the police. Once the seller is related to the corpse hiding case, it will be very troublesome for the buyer to check out.

After coming out of the police station, Mr. Hu and his wife were still scolding us.

"You unscrupulous agents just wait!"

"I must sue you!"

"I will go to court to sue you tomorrow!"

Watching them get into the car and leave, Meng Yifan's face could not be darker, and he was smoking cigarettes one after another.

In fact, there is no big loss for us when we check out. Even if the compensation is 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, it is still a small amount of money.

But we are afraid of getting involved in lawsuits. Once we get involved in lawsuits, it will damage the reputation of business people. This is very fatal. If we don't do it well, it will be difficult for us to do business in the future.

"My grandfather used to tell me that people in our family are not suitable for business, and something will happen if we do business. I didn't believe it before, but now I do."

Meng Yifan's expression was extremely ugly, and he sighed: "Once this lawsuit starts, maybe even one of my stores will have to close."

I didn't know how to comfort him, I just said to take it one step at a time.

We were both very tired after working hard all day, and we didn't plan to go back to the store. We planned to go back to our homes first and have a good rest.

This corpse hiding case has nothing to do with us. As for the strange things Meng Yifan and I encountered in the house, we can just treat it as a nightmare.

The next thing we have to deal with is the lawsuit. This is the most important thing.

After I got home, I felt that the corpse smell was all over my body. I felt disgusting, so I went to take a shower.

After taking a shower, I fell asleep.

It's comfortable to sleep in your own bed, and you don't have to worry about something knocking on the door in the middle of the night.

I will never go back to that house in my life anyway, and whatever is in it has nothing to do with me.

But things don't seem to be as simple as I thought.

I was already sleeping at my home, but in the middle of the night, there was another knock on the door.

After experiencing weird things for two nights in a row, I didn't stay in bed like before. Instead, I woke up and sat up like a frightened bird.

Because I woke up so quickly and before my mind could react, I almost thought I was still in the master bedroom of that house.

But when I saw the layout of the room clearly, I realized that I was in my own home.

But this didn't make me feel any better. Instead, I became even more frightened. I quickly picked up the phone next to the pillow and took a look.

twelve o'clock in the morning...

It’s twelve o’clock in the morning again!

The knocking on the door outside continued, as if if I didn't open the door, she would keep knocking.

I froze on the bed, not daring to take a breath.

What exactly is going on?

I've obviously gone home, why is there still someone knocking on the door?

Holding my phone in hand, I quietly got out of bed, opened the bedroom door, and came to the living room.

At this time, the knocking on the door was reaching my ears more and more clearly, but I didn't dare to go to the door again.

I bravely shouted: "Who is it!"

Outside the gate, a faint voice came in.

"I'm looking for Li Xiumei. Is Li Xiumei at home?"
