Anyway, Mrs. Mary can feel at ease with such a person.
Through today's performance, Mai Fan passed the most stringent test for women in this firm.
Just because he left two hours late and cleaned the office.
Of course Mai Fan didn't know what he had just experienced. He is now holding some books and walking towards home.
The road from Detective Rock to his apartment was in very good condition. There were tall street lamps on the roadside, and the soft light lit up. Looking towards the apartment, there were dots of stars over there.
Every household has lit up their cooking smoke, waiting for their family members to return home late.
The apartment building where Mai Fan is located also has many bright lights. He gets off work at this time and is already among those who come home late.
As a bonus in this apartment, the landlady's maid on the first floor would sometimes cook extra dinners and sell them to the single guests living here.
Although there is a suspicion of eating leftovers, it contains meat, vegetables and eggs, and a dinner only costs 20 copper coins, which is very affordable for a person like Mai Fan who has just received a salary.
After he rang the doorbell, he thoughtfully left 20 copper coins on the table next to the door, and then took out a set meal for tonight from the lunch box on the table.
When he returned to his room on the third floor, he opened the food box and a nice smell of meat came out.
The moment he put the spoon in his mouth. After arriving in this world, the diary, which played a vital role, suddenly gave another warning.
There are things in this lunch box that are not good for his health. Of course, this medicine is yellow, which means it is a non-lethal poison, so what can it be? Mai Fan brought the spoon in front of him, and a detailed explanation was given behind the arrow.
Powerful sleeping pills will cause the tenants here to sleep more deeply.
You seemed to have eaten a lot of similar substances at yesterday's barbecue in the backyard.
I just don’t know why, but these things don’t have any effect. Your good sleep is related to your physical fitness, not the effect of these drugs.
Well, it turns out that he had eaten this thing yesterday, but he heard strange noises in his sleep last night, which means that this thing actually didn't work.
So what is the purpose of the other party putting this drug in? I hope he sleeps deeper and ignores this weird sound, right?
But wouldn’t the pitcher himself find it strange? Because this effective drug is ineffective, many tenants have quit renting midway. Wouldn't they just switch to another effective drug without getting suspicious?
In any case, the other party's purpose was to make him sleep deeper. Well then, I will do as he wished and pretend to be asleep.
He didn't plan on anyone being too heavy tonight, but he wanted to see who caused the inexplicable noise in this room. Who else expected him to sleep in this room until dawn?
Mai Fan ate the meal very cleanly, so clean that when the plate was returned to the maid's hands, she didn't even need to clean it again.
Then he lay back on the bed and pretended to fall asleep soon.
The large floor-to-ceiling pendulum in the lobby on the first floor jingled to 12 o'clock.
By the time it reached Mai Fan's ears, the voice was already faint.
So far, everything is fine, no movement.
Just when Mai Fan thought nothing would happen today, he heard a slight noise and creak outside the door.
Here he is, wanting to see what this is.
There is a huge green dot outside the door. Is this someone very friendly to him? Mai Fan was speechless when he saw the name above.
With a click, he opened the door. Mai Fan and the landlady standing outside the door looked at each other.
"Madam, it's very late. What can I do?"
The landlady, who was holding a kerosene lamp, was a little frightened, but she quickly calmed down.
"I just want to patrol to prevent anything strange from happening in your room."
"I didn't expect you to be awake so late. So, dear Mr. Fan, did you hear any strange noises?"
Damn it, does the weirdness of this room worry the landlady enough that she wants to patrol it herself? Mai Fan felt a little pity for her.
"Dear landlady, don't worry. I slept very well yesterday. The reason why I slept a little late today is because I was still excited about my first day at work. Nothing strange happened in this room. So don’t worry, I will stay here for a long time and I won’t quit the rental in a short period of time.”
Seeing how sincere Mai Fan said it, the landlady breathed a sigh of relief.
"Really? Well, that would be great. Mr. Fan is really disturbing. Well, if you don't mind, can you accompany me downstairs to drink a cup of hot chocolate milk before falling asleep?"
To be honest, Mai Fan had nothing to do. Chocolate milk was definitely a luxury for people in this world. Mai Fan didn't mind giving himself a cup of dessert before going to bed. He happily accepted the landlord's offer. This invitation from my wife.
Only 15 minutes had passed since Mai Fan accompanied Mrs. Dong to the kitchen downstairs, where the two of them drank a glass of chocolate milk, and then he went upstairs again.
But when he opened his room, Mai Fan found that the furnishings in the room had been moved again.
The doors and windows are the same as yesterday, untouched, and there are signs of human activity in this building, so who did this?
He was unwilling to admit that this was a supernatural phenomenon, so there was only one explanation. This thing would happen after 12 o'clock every night.
It couldn't have been done by someone outside the house.
Mai Fan opened the balcony outside and looked at the fire escape. There was no one there.
In just 15 minutes, the other party ran from the street to the fire escape, climbed up to the third floor, opened his door, moved all the furnishings in his room, and then escaped the same way... This time was too short, and it was far away. Far from being able to do so many things.
Since no one outside could do it, only the people in this apartment can do it.
In addition to the landlord's wife, this apartment also houses nearly 20 tenants renting single rooms.
In addition to the chefs and maids hired by the landlady, there are about five people.
In other words, there are 25 people in this house who can possibly accomplish this.
So the first thing Maifan has to figure out is how the other party did it?
When he was drinking milk with the landlady on the first floor, who was there within his sight that he couldn't have done that thing?
Mai Fan briefly recalled the character identification given in the diary.
