Bai Mo took a taxi and asked for directions. After a lot of twists and turns, he finally arrived at the Sunshine Apartment on Nanshan Road.
The name of this apartment is quite warm, but the weather at this time is a bit unfavorable. I don't know when it started, but it suddenly started to rain lightly, and it had a tendency to get heavier and heavier.
The sky was terribly dark. It was clear that the sun was high just now, but now it gave people the illusion that it would be dark soon.
"The target has reached the designated location."
In the coffee shop opposite the apartment, a cold-looking man noticed Bai Mo poking his head downstairs in the apartment, put down his coffee cup and called Lu Zhan.
"Find a reasonable excuse to hold him back. It's best not to let him enter the apartment." After a pause, Lu Zhan added, "You can play any role you want. Don't let him find anything unusual."
The man thought for a while and replied: "I can't perform."
"No? You can't even act like a passerby?"
"No." The man said honestly.
"Who are you?"
"It's me." The man was silent for a moment, "Lijun Lu, I'm Chen Shi."
"Chen Shi," Lu Zhan was stunned, "I know it was you, but you were actually joking just now, hahaha..."
"Captain, have you forgotten me?"
Lu Zhan was silent.
A moment later, his voice with a headache came from the other end of the phone: "Why are you in that area..."
"I heard that something unusual happened here, so I came here to take a look."
Lu Zhan's tone became serious and he realized something was wrong: "Have you also heard about the Sunshine Apartment?"
"Yes, the person who talked about this matter has been arrested." Chen Shi said calmly, looked at the sky, and suddenly accelerated his tone, "The rain has intensified, and the target has entered the Sunshine Apartment."
"That's it."
Lu Zhan sighed. It was too late to pursue the matter of the Sunshine Apartment. He said, "The mission has changed. Follow up and keep an eye on the target. Report the situation to me afterwards."
"Remember, never take action unless necessary. If the situation is really critical, you can use your abilities, but you must not let the target see the process of your action."
With Chen Shi staring at the tombkeeper, Lu Zhan felt a lot more relieved. Maybe he could try to verify the suspicion in his mind.
"good."
Chen Shi understood, called the waiter to pay the bill, and then held up an umbrella and walked into the rain curtain. He had a cold face the whole time, giving people the feeling that strangers should not approach him.
However, the strange thing is that for a person with such a special temperament, everyone in the coffee shop subconsciously ignored him.
…
"It's so dark. There isn't even a light in this big apartment?"
Bai Mo didn't expect that the rain would suddenly fall so hard. Most of his shoulders were soaked unexpectedly, and when he saw that he was about to turn into a drowned rat, he hurriedly ran into the apartment to take shelter from the rain.
Who knew that this damn place seemed to have a power outage, it was completely dark, and even the elevator couldn't be used.
He stood there for a while and suddenly felt a little strange.
It's too quiet.
Sunshine Apartment is located in a busy city. There was a lot of people just before entering the building. As soon as we entered the building, we couldn't hear any sound.
It was as if all the sounds were swallowed up by a big mouth, and even the sound of the raindrops disappeared.
Looking back, the scene outside was fragmented and blurry, with continuous rain. The rain curtain at the entrance of the corridor was like a twisted barrier, completely separating the inside and outside of the apartment.
Away from the hustle and bustle, it is like two worlds of life and death.
Bai Mo froze on the spot, staring at the rain curtain in trance.
“The sound insulation effect is really good.”
After a while, he murmured something, turned on the light on his mobile phone and walked upstairs.
He didn't know where he should go, or even the purpose of coming to Sunshine Apartment.
The moment he heard the words "corpse covered with soil", he was indeed touched, wondering if it might be the corpse that was lost in the cemetery.
But he soon felt that it was impossible. Although he had never opened a coffin to check, Bai Mo understood that the corpses in the cemetery were all decent people during their lifetime, and they did not necessarily have to be covered with mud. Besides, who would take the stolen corpses when they were idle?
Come to a place like this.
What's even more ridiculous is...the two talking guys actually said that the corpse was knocking on the door?
Are you kidding? A corpse is a dead person. How can a dead person move?
This was undoubtedly a story full of loopholes, similar to the urban ghost stories he had heard before, but even so, Bai Mo still came.
He didn't know the reason, maybe he was too busy, or maybe it was out of his duty as a tombkeeper.
"Ta, ta..."
The dark corridor was unusually quiet. There was only his dull footsteps. I don't know if it was because the surroundings were too empty. The footsteps seemed to have never stopped, echoing and overlapping, as if there were many people following behind him.
.
The atmosphere is a little weird.
Suddenly, Bai Mo stopped and his eyes rested on the floor in front of the door of a room.
It was a ball of moist yellow soil that looked like two barefoot mud footprints, with the shape of the five toes particularly clear.
The appearance of the footprints is very strange. The heels are together and the toes are twisting to both sides, forming a 180-degree angle with each other.
If these are really footprints, it means that not long ago, someone stood at this door with an anti-human gesture...
Bai Mo took a photo of the house number and the room door with his mobile phone, and found that there was also moist yellow soil at the peephole and part of the door.
He thought for a while, and a picture like this emerged in his mind:
The rain fell and the sky became dark.
In the dark corridor, a figure covered with mud stood stiffly at the door of the room.
He lowered his head, the dirt mixed with raindrops dripping from his body to the ground, and raised his hand to knock on the door.
The owner of the room carefully looked through the peephole, but happened to see an eye peering into the door.
Cold, ruthless, and bloodshot.
The owner was scared to death. He mustered up the courage to take another look, only to find that it was pitch black outside and he couldn't see anything...
Because the cat's eye has been sealed with mud by the people outside the door.
The person who knocked on the door remained motionless, with his head still lowered. He stood in front of the door for a long time, and then knocked on the door again.
"Dong-dong-dong-dong-dong-"
Bai Mo nodded secretly, thinking that my brainstorming ability is quite good, even the imaginary knock on the door is so natural...
wrong.
This sound... seems like a real knock on the door?
He raised his head suddenly with a stunned look on his face. The voice came from upstairs!
"There can't really be some corpse knocking on the door, right?"
Bai Mo felt a little guilty. After thinking about it, he thought this idea was ridiculous. What age is it now? Why do he still think about those messy things?
Not desirable or desirable.
So he took a deep breath and slowly stepped onto the stairs upstairs.
The air became extremely dull, and the darkness in the corridor became a bit deeper and inexplicably a bit more sinister.
The knock on the door upstairs disappeared and did not sound for a long time. The knocker seemed to be hiding in a corner and was secretly watching him.
"Ta, ta..."
Even though Bai Mo has always been bold, he was a little fussed by this weird atmosphere at this time. I don't know if it was an illusion, but he actually felt that the sound of his footsteps was much duller, like...
It was like there was another person on the stairs, and his footsteps completely overlapped with his...
As soon as this idea came up, he could no longer suppress it. He stopped and looked up, down, left, and right, but found nothing.
No other footsteps were heard.
A false alarm.
He breathed a sigh of relief and secretly laughed at his cowardice. A tomb guard actually believed this. Telling it would bring shame to the corpses in the cemetery. So he adjusted his mentality and quickened his pace upstairs.
The next second, Bai Mo felt as if his left shoulder had hit something, something vague and terrifyingly cold. He turned his head but saw nothing.
He took it as a psychological effect and didn't pay attention, and went upstairs in a few steps.
At the same time, an indifferent Chen Shi appeared in the darkness downstairs. He did not use any lighting equipment, but his brows suddenly raised, as if he could see in the dark.
He almost couldn't help but take action, but fortunately he remembered Lu Zhan's order in time.
Bai Mo didn't notice it, but he saw it. Just now, a blue-faced corpse walked stiffly downstairs and bumped into Bai Mo!
At this time, the corpse had already walked in front of him.
The corpse was covered in mud, twisted its neck, grinned, and smiled sinisterly at him.
