He feels that he, who is proficient in health maintenance, is already one of the people in this era who gets up early.
But he didn't expect that the old landlady would be there earlier than him!
Opening the door, the other person was standing outside, holding the black cat in his arms.
Compared with the way she used to deliberately pretend to be mysterious, the old landlady now looks much more normal.
Moreover, Lin Zheng also noticed that the other party was wearing very bright clothes that were not suitable for his age and figure.
It looks loose and strange.
And the black cat also seemed a little manic.
He kept making meowing sounds and was still struggling in the old lady's arms.
I almost jumped out several times.
But in the end, he was still held tightly in his arms.
The landlord's old lady still had a cold face: "Are you up? Clean up and move out quickly. Didn't you say you have found a house?"
"I've found it, but can't I stay for even one more day?
Is it necessary for you to come so early and urge me to leave?" Lin Zheng couldn't help but feel angry.
No one is even allowed to sleep!
This is too outrageous.
The old landlady shook her head: "I won't let you live here anymore. You'll leave right away. It's best to leave now. Go pack your things quickly!"
She didn't know when the demolitions would come.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, Lin Zheng must be allowed to leave quickly.
Because only when Lin Zheng left could she do what she wanted to do.
"I've already packed it up, so I won't bother you to remind me."
Lin Zheng also said coldly and turned sideways.
Sure enough, there were bags and bags all over the floor in the room.
After traveling through time, in order to raise money to make a movie, Lin Zheng sold off many things that he had no use for, and sold them cheaply.
Only some basic daily necessities were left behind.
Originally there wasn't much.
Moreover, he really wanted to move out quickly.
How can such a simple room be as comfortable as the three bedrooms and one living room rented from Officer Zhang?
So after he came back last night, he had already packed his things.
At this time, there were only two huge woven bags and a backpack in the entire room.
The weight is definitely not small, but for Lin Zheng, this is not a problem.
Now the landlord is urging me to come to my door.
Lin Zheng was too lazy to say any more and turned around to start washing up.
After washing up, he paid a high price and added a lot of money to order a moving truck that he was willing to drive in.
After all, he does have a lot of stuff and he can carry it, but it will definitely affect other passengers on the subway.
It was almost the morning rush hour, and Lin Zheng didn't want to cause any trouble to the workers.
It didn't take long for the car to arrive. He returned the key to the other party, carried his bag and school bag, walked out of the door and got in the car.
The car driver was very kind and talkative.
As soon as Lin Zheng got into the car, he was dragged into chatting and he didn't even have time to put away his luggage.
Just threw it in the car so casually.
The driver said that he often heard rumors that the small western-style building was haunted.
There is something wrong with the landlord there.
If Lin Zheng hadn't added a lot of money, he definitely wouldn't have come to pick her up this time.
Lin Zheng was already used to this.
He had heard this many times.
Because of this, that area is inaccessible. Under normal circumstances, even taxis are not willing to come in.
Unless you add money.
And Lin Zheng also knew it.
In fact, there is no such thing as being haunted or not.
He had already taken it out and checked it with the old landlady and found nothing wrong with her.
A completely ordinary person.
Therefore, there is no doubt that the other party's previous strange behaviors were just pretending.
Maybe, even this haunting theory and rumor.
It was all spread by the old landlady herself.
Of course, he still couldn't figure out why the other party did this.
He was also filled with resentment and immediately started to complain.
The two of them chatted all the way.
Nearly three hours later.
The car finally arrived at the gate of Liyue Community.
Lin Zheng got out of the car with his things and went straight to Unit 3, Unit 403.
Open the door with the key and step into this exquisitely decorated and spacious three-bedroom and one-living room suite.
Perhaps Zhang Chengmin and the others had already intended to rent it out.
So although the house is fully furnished.
But some more personal items, such as sheets and quilts, are not available at all.
Lin Zhengzheng went to the master bedroom and put on his things.
Then, it’s time to configure the room.
He took out all the clothes and hangers in the woven bag and put them in the closet.
Everything else was put in its place, and it only took more than an hour.
This house has a total of three bedrooms, one of which has been converted into a study.
Lin Zheng has no intention of changing back.
As a less aggressive director, he really should have his own study room.
After resting for a while, he carried his backpack and came to the study room, planning to decorate his working place again.
Open the backpack and take out the work supplies inside one by one.
computer.
keyboard.
mouse.
charger……
"Huh? Where's my charger?"
Lin Zheng looked at the empty space where the charger was supposed to be installed, with a look of shock on his face.
He remembered clearly that he had put all the chargers and charging cables in here last night.
As a result, now, it is gone and disappeared!
He continued to fumble inside the backpack without giving up.
But not only did he not find it, but he also discovered that he had lost more than just the charger!
There is also a USB flash drive that contains some ghost movie scripts, and a very expensive wireless headset left behind by the original person.
After traveling through time and binding the system, I realized that I could only make ghost movies.
Lin Zheng immediately wrote down all the ghost stories he could imagine in his mind.
Then save it to a USB flash drive and hide it at home.
Although they are all orthodox horror movies that specialize in scaring people.
But it is also more or less the cultural crystallization of the earth and the fruit of his labor. Of course, he cannot throw it away casually.
Yesterday, he remembered clearly that he found it specially and put it in a safe corner in his backpack.
But now, I've searched through my entire backpack and can't find it.
As for that headset, it was one of the few things Lin Zheng didn't sell.
Because he himself also has the habit of listening to music, but later found that making movies is too busy, especially for people like him, who also have the pressure of life expectancy.
So I sealed this hobby for the time being.
But this doesn't mean that he can just throw away the pair of headphones.
You know, that thing, even if it is second-hand, can be sold for more than 2,000 yuan!
"It's impossible, I've obviously packed it all in!"
Lin Zheng is very confident in his memory. He is someone who can remember so many movie plots and scenes.
He immediately poured out everything in his backpack and prepared for inspection.
But the lost items were not found, but instead, a hole was found under the backpack.
"Hole? Where did the hole come from?"
He left and turned the bag over, only to find that there was not just one hole, but several holes underneath the backpack!
Although it's not big, you can definitely take some things out.
And it can be clearly seen.
These holes all have signs of being chewed.
Lin Zheng's expression couldn't help but darken.
He remembered clearly that when he packed his backpack yesterday, there were absolutely no holes like these!
Then, he found a bloody tooth in the middle of his backpack.
A sharp canine tooth that only animals can grow.
"Damn cat..."
Lin Zheng held the tooth and gritted his teeth.
This tooth, as well as the holes in the backpack with obvious bite marks.
All of this fully proves that the "murderer" of this crime is definitely the black cat owned by the old lady of the landlady!
He put the cat's teeth in his pocket, took the keys and mobile phone, walked out the door, and headed straight to the subway station.
He must get back what he lost.
And, let that damn black cat pay the price!
…
At this time, in the small foreign-style building where Lin Zheng had lived for several months.
The doors and windows of the room on the second floor were closed, and there was silence.
The black cat licked the gums where one of the canine teeth was missing, his face full of pain.
This tooth was found after it sneaked into Lin Zheng's room last night and stole things.
He knocked it off by force, and then stuffed it into Lin Zheng’s gum bag!
Even though its body was shaking with pain, it still didn't make a sound.
Although it is not that smart yet, it can still feel that its master is about to be in disaster.
And can save her.
The only one who makes it extremely afraid is Lin Zheng!
The black cat turned his head and looked at the old landlady who was sitting on the sofa.
At this time, the other party was holding an old but clean photo frame, looking at the photos inside, stroking it, and dazed at the same time.
The photo in the frame is a little yellowed. It shows a man and a woman, both in their thirties.
They leaned closely together, and behind them was this small foreign-style building.
However, the small western-style building in the photo looks very new.
The beautiful woman inside is wearing exactly the same clothes she is wearing today.
This photo is a commemorative photo taken after she and her husband worked hard to build this small foreign-style building.
To commemorate that they finally had a house of their own.
The two of them met in college. After four years of long-distance running, their relationship has always been stable and getting better and better.
She did not dislike her husband, who was born in a rural area and had a poor family background. His parents died young and he did not even have many relatives.
Her husband also felt sorry for her and was willing not to have children but to spend the rest of his life with her.
They have already decided that the other person is their lifelong partner.
But after graduation, when the two wanted to get married, they were opposed by her parents.
Because her husband is an orphan, he cannot afford the bride price, let alone a car or a house.
Her parents strongly disagreed and threatened her not to get their help if she insists on getting married.
But she still insists on being with her husband. She has been naughty since she was a child, and this time she is no different.
You should live by yourself. How can two college students live a good life even without the help of others?
Facts have proved that she was right.
After getting married, her husband was still so kind to her, and their relationship was still as strong as ever.
They rented a house and started working hard.
Since you can't eat something very good, then don't eat it.
If you can't afford expensive clothes, then don't buy them.
My husband also works part-time after get off work every day.
She also found some simple jobs so that she could earn more or less.
The pressure in life did not overwhelm them.
Even, they can save some money every month.
At that time, their biggest goal was to have a house of their own as soon as possible.
They didn't wait long for this moment.
It happened that this area was going to be developed, so they bought a piece of land and spent all their savings.
Design it yourself, supervise the construction and decorate it yourself.
They built this house, their first and only house.
After the house was completed, they were so excited that they bought a pair of expensive new clothes.
I took this photo as a souvenir.
At that time, she was 29 years old and her husband was only 30.
This year, she is already 89.
They lived here for sixty years.
She had no children, and after sending her parents away, they only had each other.
Although it followed, the development plan here was shelved and was not continued in the end, resulting in fewer and fewer people here.
People are moving out one after another, and it is becoming more and more inconvenient to do anything.
But they still live here.
Because this small western-style building stores their most precious memories.
Thirteen years ago, my husband passed away due to illness.
She was the only one left in the small foreign-style building.
Fortunately, she was lucky enough to find this black cat outside, so she would not be so lonely.
What was originally waiting for her was to grow old slowly, getting older day by day, and then until she died.
But just a year ago.
Another developer suddenly appeared and said that he would restart the development plan of this area.
But I want to tear down everything here and start over.
This developer is very rich and bought out all the other people who originally lived here at a very high price.
Others are willing to throw away everything here.
But she didn't. She was unwilling to throw away this small foreign-style building that she and her husband had built by themselves.
She begged the other party to give her more time until she died.
She doesn't have much time left to live.
She may not even charge a penny, because she doesn't need the money.
They both have savings.
But the developer disagreed, saying that the opportunity should not be missed, otherwise it would affect any business plans and major layout.
She couldn't understand, and she didn't want to understand.
She just didn't want to see this small western-style building demolished while she was still alive.
She thought of many ways, asked many people for help, and even invited reporters to expose it, but to no avail.
How could she, an old lady, be a rival to the developer?
What's more, the other party has obtained the relevant license and is willing to pay.
Even willing to pay more to buy it from her.
Moreover, the other party also knows how to take quotes out of context and manipulate public opinion better than she does.
So after being exposed, in the eyes of others, she became the unreasonable one.
"This old lady is really ungrateful!"
"That's right, if it were me, I would have sold it a long time ago!"
"You want to raise the price for a dilapidated building? Do you want 100 million?"
"Some articles say that there are memories of her and her husband in this house."
"Memories? Furniture? Photos? Move them away! Is it important to have money for these things?"
"You can't do this. For those of us, the developer only gives half of the money, and the rest will be settled after you move out."
"No wonder I became a lonely old man. I wouldn't want to take care of such parents if it were me!"
…
In this era when everyone pays more attention to money, it is difficult for her to get help.
She realized that she could only rely on herself.
She thought about it and finally thought of a possible method.
Although she is not short of money, she has no desire to rent the place that holds the memories of herself and her husband to others.
But she still printed out countless advertisements, posted them everywhere, and rented out the house at a very low price.
Then, they deliberately show weird actions and expressions, pretending to be abnormal.
Deliberately scare all tenants who come in.
Although she was also sad when she saw more and more wrinkles on her face.
But at this time, she was very happy that she could become so ugly and scary when she got older.
You can pretend to be a ghost and look like this.
She was even more fortunate that the kitten she picked up many years ago was so smart that he could understand her and even help her complete some frightening actions.
Of course, she won't really hurt these tenants.
When the other party is evicted or the other party withdraws from the lease.
She will also return all the rent to the other party, and even give some more.
She only recruits one tenant at a time, and waits until that tenant is scared away before recruiting the next one.
As more and more tenants were recruited, she also learned to surf the Internet and browsed various information online.
Gradually, rumors spread like wildfire that this place was haunted.
Everything is going smooth.
She is also very satisfied.
She felt that this time, it might be effective.
In this world, there are things that people care about more than money.
Maybe there are only ghosts.
If they knew that this place was haunted, wouldn't those developers continue to press so hard?
She thought so.
It wasn't until Lin Zheng rented it in that he told her the news about Lan Mengjie's accident.
She suddenly realized that although she was very careful... she still seemed to have done something wrong?
Shouldn't she involve irrelevant people?
She began to think about whether she should continue to do this.
Later, she received the call again, informing her of the forced demolition.
It seems that when it comes to money, ghosts are useless.
Later, she saw the news on TV.
She finally realized that she had done something wrong.
And the mistake was so serious that there was no way to make amends.
She thought for a long time, and then made another decision.
She is ready to die.
Yes.
From the moment she decided to drive Lin Zheng out, she was ready to die.
Since these people are unwilling to let go of her house.
Then she would use her own life to make these people pay the due price.
This is the only thing she can do with her remaining life.
But of course she couldn't know.
The real purpose of those people hiding behind the developer is to kill her!
Boom boom boom boom...
There was a violent noise coming closer and closer outside.
The black cat's ears had already stood up, and its pair of cat pupils also stood straight up, seeming to emit a faint red light in the dim room.
"What a coincidence..."
She said, and then, with a lot of effort, she took apart the photo frame.
Take out the group photo, put it in your clothes, and stick it tightly to your skin.
In fact, there are many photos in the room.
But there's definitely not enough to take. Forget it, this one is enough.
She set up her crutches and stood up. The black cat next to her immediately jumped into her arms.
She smiled, touched the cat's head, said nothing, and walked out the door step by step.
That girl, I'm sorry for you, I will give you my life back now, and if there is a next life, I will give it back to you again...
Old man, I may come to find you...
How wonderful it would be if people could really become ghosts after they disappeared...
Squeak... She opened the door, and the wooden door made a heartbreaking sound.
This house is indeed too old, and it may indeed be time to demolish it.
But I just don’t want to dismantle it... I just don’t want to...
The midday sun shone down and covered her face, which was so dazzling that she couldn't help but shed a tear.
