Zuo Xu rushed all the way from home to Fuhai Community, took the elevator again, and went up to the fourth floor.
As soon as the elevator door opened, he saw a fire reflected in the fire stairway next to him:
"on fire?"
Without thinking too much, he was worried about a fire and hurried over to check the situation.
Only to find that it was Grandma Lu during the day, squatting in a corner of the stairs, burning yellow paper.
Beside the corner, there was a broom leaning against it, with three sticks of incense stuck in the handle.
"Grandma Lu, what are you doing?"
"ah?"
Grandma Lu was obviously startled by the sudden appearance of Zuo Xu behind her.
When he turned around, he realized that it was the police detective who had come to his home during the day, and he relaxed: "It's you! It scared me to death. What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
"Oh, we were in 403 during the day and there were still some things we didn't see clearly, so we came over at night to have a look."
Zuo Xu didn't explain too much, but Grandma Lu persuaded her first:
"Don't look at it clearly if you don't want to see it clearly. 403 is really unclean. My grandson is suffering from fever just because he looked at unclean things."
In order to increase her persuasion, Grandma Lu even told her family’s experience of having just hired an exorcist.
"Exorcist?"
He's not a liar again, is he?
So he deliberately said:
"Since the exorcist is so powerful, why don't you ask him to collect the dirty things?"
Zuo Xu originally said it as a joke. After experiencing the experience of the two sleep testers in the haunted house in the morning, I know that many people nowadays pretend to be magicians and exorcists. Who knows if the exorcist in Grandma Lu’s house has real skills?
?
Unexpectedly, Grandma Lu took these words seriously:
"Yes! Why didn't I think that if we asked her to collect the dirty things in 403, wouldn't our family not have to change the house?"
According to their family's previous plan, once their grandson's condition is cured, their family will prepare to change their house.
Even if the house price is lower, we still need to get rid of this hot potato as soon as possible.
now,
Zuo Xu's words directly woke her up:
Since their family hired such a powerful exorcist this time, she must have a way to get rid of the dirty things.
After burning the yellow paper in her hands, the old woman got up and returned to the house, leaving Zuo Xu standing alone in the stairwell at a loss.
"I said it as a joke, why did she take it seriously?"
Zuo Xu shook his head, came to the door of 403, carefully took off the seal posted by the Public Security Department on the door of the room, and would put it back on again later.
Then he took out the wire from his pocket and fiddled with the keyhole twice. Unexpectedly, he opened the door easily.
"So smooth?"
He thought he would have to try a few more times, but he didn't expect the lock to be opened within three seconds.
Is it possible that I still have the talent to be a thief?
Shaking his head to get rid of all unrealistic thoughts in his mind, Zuo Xu put on his shoe covers and entered Room 403 again.
Turning on the light, Zuo Xu looked around. The furnishings in the house had not changed at all from when they left.
Without thinking too much, in order to verify his conjecture, Zuo Xu immediately used his professional skills:
Spirituality.
A wave of soul power, like ripples, spread ten meters outward with Zuo Xu as the center.
When this soul power fluctuation touched an art painting on the wall, a light blue halo suddenly appeared around the painting.
Have a problem with the painting?
At this time, Zuo Xu suddenly remembered that when he was investigating the scene during the day, he discovered that the frightened look on the deceased's face was exactly the painting he was looking at.
Suddenly, there was a sizzling sound of electricity, the lights in the room kept turning on and off, and even the electric fan started to rotate slowly without anyone starting it.
This sudden change immediately made Zuo Xu feel nervous. It seemed that there was something about this haunted house.
My skills are too shallow. I have just activated the system and do not have any attack methods. It is better to exit first. It is important to save my life.
Thinking of this, Zuo Xu did not dare to stay any longer and slowly retreated towards the door.
Bang~
As if knowing that Zuo Xu was about to run away, the door of Room 403 was closed tightly without anyone operating it.
Not only that, the medieval oil painting hanging on the wall was also under Zuo Xu's gaze. The sideways woman inside also slowly turned around and met Zuo Xu's eyes.
"I......!"
Zuo Xu has never seen such a strange situation in his entire life, and his legs became weak from fear.

It’s over~
Even the system felt that it had no chance of winning and actually issued an escape mission.
But at this time, his legs were a little weak, how could he run?
Usually when joking, he would pat his chest to ensure that he was not afraid of tricks, but when it suddenly appeared in front of him, he was still scared.
"Open the door, open the door quickly!"
Zuo Xu's whole body was slumped against the door frame, and he kept trying to open the door behind him.
But the door seemed to be locked from the outside. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open it.
Zuo Xu was anxious. Could it be that on his first day as a police detective, he would hate this place?
My father's revenge has not been avenged, my mother's kindness has not been avenged, I cannot die!
There must be a way.
The difficulty level of the system is only e-level, which means that there is still a high chance of survival.
Where is the hope?
Taking courage, Zuo Xu looked at the oil painting again and saw the woman inside, staring at him with a strange smile.
Subsequently,
It actually... came out directly from the painting.
With such a terrifying scene appearing before his eyes, Zuo Xu finally knew how Shen Wanshi was scared to death.
Who the hell can withstand this?
Don't come over here!
Just when I wanted to calmly think of a solution, I was frightened again by the scene in front of me.
"Get out of the way!"
Suddenly, Zuo Xu heard a woman's voice coming from outside the door, and he moved aside reflexively.
There was a loud bang, and the door of 403 was kicked open from the outside by a force!
Fortunately, he dodged quickly, otherwise, he would have been kicked to the ground like a door!
"It's really an evil spirit, a troublesome thing."
A young girl in black rushed in before Zuo Xu could react, and at the same time sprinkled a handful of powder on the evil spirit.
The evil spirits shrouded in powder seemed to be dyed, turning black all over and emitting smoke. Obviously, this seemingly ordinary powder can cause great harm to evil spirits.
The evil spirit that was so terrifying just now turned into a black mist under the pain, and was about to rush towards Zuo Xu's body.
