Ning Qiushui didn't feel very scared. He opened the door suddenly and prepared to make head-on gestures with the other party.
If the other party is a ghost, then the ghost weapon on him will be effective.
If the other party is not a ghost...then he has nothing to worry about!
However, the other party seemed to have predicted his next move in advance, and turned around and ran towards the stairs. Ning Qiushui followed him all the way to the fourth floor, and saw the man with a strange running posture opening the door of Room 404. He opened the door, hid directly in, and then closed the door tightly with a bang!
The corridor on the fourth floor is very dark, and coupled with the old and worn-out feeling, it is really permeable.
Especially the door of room 404, there is always an inexplicable evil atmosphere permeating it.
Ning Qiushui kept Wang Fang's words in mind and did not chase after him.
Judging from his experience just now, although Wang Fang is a little weird and has some secrets, she should not be the one who wants to harm them.
After taking a deep look at the fourth floor, Ning Qiushui went upstairs without looking back.
At this time, more than half an hour had passed since he went downstairs.
After returning to the seventh floor, the people who had been gathered here did not disperse.
They are still discussing.
I don't know whether they were discussing the dead person or Ning Qiushui who had just disappeared.
"Qiu Shui, are you okay?"
Seeing Ning Qiushui's figure at the other end of the stairs, a cry of concern immediately came from the crowd.
Then Ning Qiushui saw Bai Xiaoxiao running over and looked at him carefully.
"Qiu Shui, which blood gate have you passed through?"
Although the look in Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes was very concerned, she also remained vigilant.
Ning Qiushui made a "4" gesture, and the latter finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"As long as you're okay..."
When he arrived in front of everyone, everyone else gathered around him.
"Little brother, what happened to you just now? Why did you suddenly disappear?"
Ning Qiushui shook her head, with a very confused look on her face.
"I don't know, I'm very strange too... When I walked into that room, I suddenly became confused. After I returned to normal, Xiaoxiao disappeared. I hurried back here."
"However, I didn't see the landlord in room 210, and the old man who lives in 209 said that no one has lived in room 210 for many years..."
When everyone heard this, their faces became particularly ugly.
In fact, they had heard Bai Xiaoxiao talk about the landlord before, but when Ning Qiushui didn't come back, these people couldn't help but become suspicious of Bai Xiaoxiao.
They didn't know that Ning Qiushui and Bai Xiaoxiao had a good relationship, so they subconsciously linked Ning Qiushui's disappearance to Bai Xiaoxiao.
At this moment, Ning Qiushui came back safe and sound, and once again said that no one lived in 210, which made everyone feel a cold feeling on their backs.
If there is no one living in Room 210, does that mean that the landlord who gave them the key before...is not alive either?
When they thought of this, they felt that the keys in their pockets became a little colder.
There are also some attentive strangers who remember clearly that when Wang Fang came down from the second floor, the dog in the gatekeeper's yard kept yelling at it...
Gulu.
Some people couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
"We, what do we do now?"
"What else can we do? Just take it one step at a time!"
"There is another question, how should we solve it while eating?"
"Let's just go out to eat. Anyway, this mission doesn't restrict us to staying in Yutian Apartment, which means we should be able to go to the nearby area!"
After a while of discussion, everyone decided to leave the seventh floor first and go out to see if there was anything to eat around.
Of course, there was still a small group of people who couldn't eat after seeing Li Qian's body and chose to go back to their rooms.
Outside Yutian Apartment, there are quite a few snack bars.
Ning Qiushui and Bai Xiaoxiao chose a store that looked older. The business here didn't seem to be very good. After sitting down, they casually ordered two bowls of noodles.
During this period, Ning Qiushui told Bai Xiaoxiao what he had encountered.
After hearing this, the latter fell into thinking. Soon the hot beef noodles were presented. Bai Xiaoxiao took out two pairs of chopsticks, handed one pair to Ning Qiushui, and then she said:
"...If you put it that way, you should have returned to the past timeline, to the starting point of the timeline where the 'murderer' committed the murder."
"The murderer killed Axi first, so Li Qian in the corresponding room also died, and the way of death was exactly the same as Axi..."
Bai Xiaoxiao thought about it, frowning, and then rejected her idea.
"No...no, it shouldn't have anything to do with the timeline. After all, you should have encountered danger earlier than Li Qian."
"In that case, it should be the red rope in Li Qian's hand."
"That was not her ghost weapon at all, but a possibly important prop she found in the room. But she didn't expect that it was this prop that killed her!"
Ning Qiushui picked up a piece of beef and stuffed it into her mouth.
"It should be like this... I also saw the hair in the cabinet before, and that's when something unexpected happened."
"Perhaps there is something more dangerous in each of our rooms, but this danger should be one-time... By the way, Xiaoxiao, who took the red rope in Li Qian's hand?"
Bai Xiaoxiao took a sip of noodles, blinked at Ning Qiushui, took out the red rope with her other hand and placed it on the table.
"I don't dare to go get it, so I have to go."
Seeing this red rope, Ning Qiushui laughed and said:
"You're a girl, how can you be so brave?"
Bai Xiaoxiao snorted.
"It's a practice!"
"Do you think everyone is as weird as you?"
Ning Qiushui picked up the red rope and put it on her body.
"I'll keep it first."
Bai Xiaoxiao nodded.
This was because there was little business to be done in the store, so the boss sat boredly on the table next to them and played with his mobile phone.
Ning Qiushui glanced at him curiously, her heart moved slightly, and she asked her boss:
"Boss, how many years have you opened a restaurant here?"
The shop owner smiled and pointed at himself.
"Young man, have you seen how old I am? I am 62 this year."
"I've been running a restaurant here for 41 years!"
Ning Qiushui's eyes lit up when he heard this:
"Then do you know what happened in Yutian Apartment before?"
When the boss heard this, his enthusiastic expression suddenly became stiff.
"We are not tenants in that apartment, so we don't know what's going on in the apartment..."
Ning Qiushui was not going to let him go and asked:
"Not the little everyday things, but the big things, like dead people, haunted things, etc."
The smile on the boss's face completely disappeared.
He seemed to be stuck in some unpleasant memories.
"If you insist on asking, some things happened back then, but I don't know much about them."
"Probably more than 20 years ago, a sensational tragedy seemed to have occurred in that apartment..."
pS: The fourth update is here.
