Early the next morning, Jiang Linxian got up and washed up.
After slowly opening the door and walking out of the room, he looked at the movement outside.
The corridor was quiet and no one else was walking around.
What surprised him the most was that the corpse that was eaten at the door of 508 yesterday was gone, and there was not even a trace of blood spattered everywhere.
Surprisingly clean.
It's like nothing happened last night.
But on the door to his room, the scratches scratched by fingernails actually appeared on the door.
Jiang Linxian looked at it for a moment, feeling incredible.
When we arrived on the first floor, the old man who liked to play chess was sitting at the door drinking tea, and he put the chessboard aside.
After seeing Jiang Linxian, her leisurely eyes immediately moved, and she greeted Jiang Linxian with a smile.
"Young man, you got up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Jiang Linxian stretched and said calmly: "There was a lot of noise outside last night. It was so noisy that I couldn't sleep."
He secretly glanced at the reaction of the old man next to him and saw that he was still drinking tea, and added: "Did you hear a scream last night? A big one?"
"Scream? Where is it?" the old man asked in confusion.
"On the fifth floor, there was a loud scream. A woman's voice was so violent that I didn't dare to go out to see it." Jiang Linxian's fingers trembled: "Such a loud scream, the whole apartment building should be able to hear it. ."
The old man laughed twice: "I live on the first floor. I am old and my ears are not working well. I didn't hear the cry you mentioned."
Jiang Linxian obviously didn't believe what he said, but he didn't delve too deeply into it, so as not to arouse the old man's hostility.
After all, he still doesn't know what happened last night.
"You're here just in time. Do you want to play a game of chess? Your mind will be clearer in the morning, and you will be more energetic when playing chess." The old man asked with a smile.
"No, I still have to clean the apartment building." Jiang Linxian refused and went directly to the utility room.
The tools in the utility room were neatly arranged, but Jiang Linxian frowned.
Everything in the utility room has been moved.
Even though they are arranged neatly, the location is not quite right.
The only person who currently has the key to the utility room, besides him, is probably the landlord, Mrs. Hu.
But Mrs. Hu probably won't come over early in the morning.
To be on the safe side, he took out his sanitary tools and went to the old man at the door of the apartment building and asked curiously: "Has Mrs. Hu been in the utility room today?"
"No." The old man said while humming a tune: "Mrs. Hu rarely comes to the utility room. She loves to be clean."
After Jiang Linxian thanked the old man, he took the elevator to the fifth floor and started cleaning.
At present, in addition to this daily task, he also has an unfinished task for an old lady.
He really didn't know where to find that photo.
He cleaned the corridors of the entire apartment building and did not find the photo. If the old lady had really lost it, then it was most likely that someone had picked it up and not returned it to her.
If a player picks it up and returns it to the old lady, his mission may be invalidated.
Originally, he wanted to use the hidden mirror to check room by room, but it was too weak. If he used it, he would probably be discovered by the powerful ghosts in the room, and the gain would not be worth the loss.
It seems that this task will most likely have to be put on hold for a while or completed by someone else.
However, Jiang Linxian was not in a hurry. He did the daily cleaning tasks every day, and he completed five tasks in five days.
In this case, he is not at a loss.
As for other players, he didn't know.
After all, he just met three players during the day yesterday, and one of them was eaten while playing chess with the old man.
The other players don't know what they are doing during the day.
Should I hide in my dormitory and wait for ten days?
Putting these problems behind him, Jiang Linxian began to clean.
At this time, the door of dormitory 508 was opened. It was the rented room where the couple had a fight last night.
A man with a beard and a beard came out.
He was extremely depressed and looked very panicked, as if something bad had happened.
When he saw Jiang Linxian, the queen immediately came forward and asked: "Young man, have you seen my wife?"
Jiang Linxian was stunned for a moment.
He remembered that the drunk man took out his wife's heart and ate it cleanly last night. He did it very quickly at that time, but now he suddenly asked him where his wife was going?
This is very strange.
"No." Jiang Linxian shook his head and replied, "Are you going out?"
Hearing Jiang Linxian's answer, the bearded man's eyes flashed with fear, and he hurried to the elevator and took the elevator to the sixth floor.
Jiang Linxian felt confused at this moment.
Is there something wrong with this man?
But when he thought of what happened in the apartment building last night, Jiang Linxian felt that the tenants of this apartment building had problems.
After he finished cleaning the entire fifth floor, the bearded man walked down from the sixth floor with a lonely look, without even taking the elevator. It seems something bad happened.
Arriving on the fourth floor, at the door of room 405, the old lady was sitting at the door of the corridor cleaning vegetables.
When she saw Jiang Linxian coming down from the stairs cleaning, she immediately looked up at him and said in a very kind voice: "Young man, are you starting to clean the apartment so early?"
"Yes, Mrs. Hu trusts me very much, and I can't let her down." Jiang Linxian replied.
The old lady smiled and nodded: "Very good, young man, very good. Mrs. Hu has such a good taste."
"By the way, young man, have you done what I asked you to do yesterday? Have you found the photo of my grandson?"
Jiang Linxian thought for a while and replied: "Yesterday I cleaned from the fifth floor to the first floor and checked carefully, but I didn't find the photo of your grandson."
"Grandma, if you think about it again, did you throw it somewhere else?"
The old woman frowned, shook her head and said, "It's impossible, right? I remember throwing it in the corridor on this floor."
She patted her head hard, tried hard to recall, and finally said helplessly: "Hey... I'm older now, and I can't remember many things."
"Look at me, I can't even remember where I lost the photo."
"Young man, if you find the photo somewhere else, bring it back and give it to me."
"Definitely!" Jiang Linxian nodded and said, "Grandma, do you live alone now? Your son and daughter haven't come to see you?"
"Yes, I am the only one." The old woman said, "I have a son and a daughter-in-law, but they are all dead."
"My only grandson passed away last month..."
When the old woman talked about her grandson, her mood became very unstable.
"My grandson is only 5 years old. He is so big. He follows me all day long and calls me grandma... grandma." The old grandma continued, her old face gradually became darker, and some black corpse spots appeared on her appeared on his arms.
"But one day last month, I was cooking in the kitchen, and he was playing by himself at the door of the room. When I finished cooking and came out, he disappeared..."
At this point, her mood became extremely unstable, her expression was extremely painful, and a few tears of blood flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Seeing that the old lady was not in a good condition, Jiang Linxian immediately comforted her: "Grandma, don't be sad. Maybe your grandson will be back in a few days."
"In the future, I will come over to stay with you and talk to you when I have time." Jiang Linxian's arms shook: "I used to like talking to my grandma, and she was very happy."
"Thank you so much, young man, you are such a nice person, Mrs. Hu has really good taste." The corpse spots on the old woman's body gradually faded, and a smile appeared on her face again.
"You're welcome." Jiang Linxian said. He wiped his nose and a little nosebleed came out, and smiled: "As soon as I saw you, I thought of my grandma. You are very similar to her."
After saying that, he lowered his head and continued cleaning.
Building a good relationship with the old lady might help you get some important information about the Happy Apartment from her.
As for chatting with her...
He doesn't have a grandma. After all, he is an orphan. Where did he get a grandma?
