It's eight o'clock sharp at night.
The number of ghosts on the streets is gradually increasing.
It seems that night is when they start to party.
Jiang Linxian lit the blood candle that Mrs. Hu gave him and opened the window a little.
The broken radio that was thrown into the trash can seemed to be still strong, still making a sizzling sound of electricity.
Jiang Linxian wondered if there was a ghost inside this thing, which had been smashed into pieces by him and could still make a sound.
That's outrageous!
But he didn't bother to listen to the radio anymore. After all, it was after eight o'clock, and he felt that it would be more dangerous outside, so it was best to stay in the security booth.
Don't leave unless you have to.
Afterwards, several more ghosts came and tried to rush into Xingfu Apartment, but they were all stopped by Jiang Linxian.
These are dangerous ghosts, and Jiang Linxian can still handle them easily. As for the scary ghosts, he took out Mrs. Hu's thorn blood whip to threaten them.
Not to mention this trick is quite effective.
Although those horror-level ghosts saw Jiang Linxian, this dangerous little mouse, their eyes were filled with disdain.
But as soon as he heard that Mrs. Hu was still in the apartment, he became hesitant.
Plus the thorn blood whip held in Jiang Linxian's hand.
When they saw it, they retreated.
Jiang Linxian knew that Mrs. Hu was very powerful, but he didn't know exactly how powerful she was. However, this orange weapon was really easy to use and saved him a lot of trouble.
You should be able to survive until twelve o'clock at least with it.
After scaring off a terrifying ghost, Jiang Linxian returned to the security booth. He was curious about what was hidden in this happy apartment that made the ghosts outside want to rush in.
It doesn't feel like it's as simple as just coming in to steal things and harass residents as Mrs. Hu said.
There must be something valuable in it.
One more thing, it was so late, what on earth was Mrs. Hu doing out there?
Are you going to meet your lover?
Jiang Linxian shook his head, feeling that this possibility was unlikely.
During the day today, he met the mysterious man wrapped in a cloak. He guessed that it must be some kind of ghost.
Mrs. Hu's sudden outing at night should be related to his appearance.
Jiang Linxian felt very headache now. These clues could not be connected together.
Putting aside these questions, Jiang Linxian sat in the security booth and carefully watched what was going on outside.
There seemed to be a little more ghosts outside the streets.
He looked at the time. It was nine-thirty at night. Mrs. Hu would be back at twelve o'clock at the latest. He still had to wait for two and a half hours.
This was very difficult for him when he came.
Blah blah blah...
Suddenly there was a harsh sound in the quiet apartment building, like the sound of breaking glass.
Jiang Linxian looked serious, sitting at the security booth and watching the movements of the entire apartment building.
He had no intention of checking.
After all, the weird things last night were still fresh in my mind, and maybe something bad would happen in the apartment building at this moment.
For now, it's relatively safe inside the security booth.
Besides, Mrs. Hu also told him not to let the ghosts outside break in. If he left here and the ghosts outside sneaked in, it would be more gain than loss.
With the sound of breaking glass, the entire apartment building suddenly became lively.
There were many shrill shouts from the residents inside.
and voices shouting at each other.
Although the security booth where Jiang Linxian was located was a few meters away from the apartment building, he could still hear it clearly.
It seemed like two women were quarreling and scolding each other very unpleasantly.
On the first floor of the apartment building, he saw the old man playing chess walking up to the stairs from a distance. He slowly walked up the stairs without taking the elevator. Behind him were several other residents living on the first floor. .
His expression was very dull, and he looked very stiff when he walked, as if he was sleepwalking.
This was exactly the same as the residents of the apartment building that Jiang Linxian saw last night.
The shouting didn't stop at all and continued for a long time.
Immediately afterwards, there was a miserable woman's scream.
Suddenly, the residents cheered and clapped their hands.
If the situation was the same as last night, he should have guessed that a woman was dead at this moment.
Maybe now her neighbors are eating her body.
On the floor inside the apartment building, a thin layer of black ghostly energy slowly emerged. The ghostly energy overflowed from the door of the first-floor apartment and slowly flowed into the courtyard of the apartment building.
The thin black ghost energy showed no tendency to dissipate. It was like a cold wave at night, centered on the apartment building, spreading in all directions, and eventually spreading to every corner of the entire courtyard outside the apartment building.
Jiang Linxian hid in the security booth, looking at the black ghost energy that had spread outside, and his expression became a little nervous.
In his eyes, these ghosts were as terrifying as the spreading plague.
He was a little unsure if there was anything scary about these ghostly auras, fearing that a ghost would suddenly pop out of these ghostly auras and sneak up on him.
At that time, he probably didn't even have time to react.
Fortunately, the ghostly energy that spread over stopped at the security booth. As if something was blocking them, they passed by and finally stopped at the gate of the courtyard.
Jiang Linxian guessed that this was related to the blood candle given to him by Mrs. Hu.
The residents of Happy Apartment are very afraid of Mrs. Hu, and the blood candle is made of Mrs. Hu's essence and blood. When it is lit, a large amount of Mrs. Hu's aura is enveloped in the candlelight.
If these black ghosts represent the ghosts of the residents of the apartment building at night, then the candlelight of the blood candle represents Mrs. Hu's original aura.
They dare not get close.
After thinking about this, Jiang Linxian's tense mood seemed to feel much better.
"It seems that as long as I don't go out, stay in the security booth, and keep the blood candle lit, these black ghosts can't get in, so I should be very safe."
"As long as I wait until Mrs. Hu comes back, my mission will be completed."
"This wave is stable."
Jiang Linxian was very grateful that Mrs. Hu gave him two things for self-defense, and they were both very useful.
Otherwise, tonight will definitely be a disaster!
Sitting in the security booth, Jiang Linxian's dark eyes were focused on every move in the apartment building to avoid any accidents.
Since the tenants' rooms in Xingfu Apartment face each other and there is no long balcony corridor, it is difficult for him to see what's going on inside. At most, he can look inside through the small windows at the stairwells of each floor.
However, that perspective was too narrow, and it was impossible to see clearly what was going on inside.
At this moment, there were more and more weird screams coming from inside Xingfu Apartment.
They seemed to be in great pain, and the strange and shuddering sounds came and went, sometimes high and sometimes low.
Black ghosts kept shuttling in the corridors and stairwells. At the gate on the first floor, the old man playing chess walked down the stairs nervously.
His body was very uncoordinated, as if he had suffered a stroke, and he walked erratically, as if he was lost.
His pale face was spattered beyond recognition with blood, and the blood around his mouth dripped onto the floor along the crooked corners of his mouth.
When he reached the first floor, a black shadow suddenly rushed out.
It hit him directly on the head.
When Jiang Linxian saw it clearly, he was shocked.
That person is Li Yuan.
The old man's head was hit behind his back and could only hang there through the flesh of his neck, twisting and turning.
The old man was stimulated and suddenly screamed strangely and rushed towards Li Yuan.
As if sensing the strange scene, Li Yuan ran away and rushed out of the apartment building.
At this moment, he saw Jiang Linxian hiding in the security booth, running towards him!
