Here Lies The Wicked

Eden Apartment.

Fifth floor.

Apartment 509.

Tap, tap, tap, 4: 00 a.m. in the cement stairwell, sounding the quiet footsteps.

Wearing a luggage bag with personal toiletries, Fang walked into the apartment building without an elevator. He needed to walk straight up to the fifth floor.

He came before.

Ko Sook has arranged a place for him to live.

Gao Shu painting has a high family and is responsible for monitoring the situation in this old apartment building as well as the entry and exit of people of all colours.

The only luggage bag in the hand is on the square at this time.

Knife box, guitar backpack, not on him.

In any case, the ghost knife belongs to the control knife, which naturally cannot be carried on board.

So Fang is going through the internal arrangement of Gaojia, by land transportation, brought by Gaojia into South Cantonese to give him. Ground transportation takes about two or three days to arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

After all, this apartment building has been built for a long time.

Walking in the space is a little depressing, with poorly ventilated stairs and smells bad.

Although lime powder has only been painted in recent years, the southern Cantonese region is wet and warm. It is estimated that mold has already developed in the wall brick behind the lime powder, and there is a lingering hint of mold in the nose.

In her head, she suddenly jumped out of a language textbook that she had learned as a child.

“The golden jade is out there, defeated."

Based on some simple information that he found online.

Eden Apartment was built in the 1960s.

The building is eight stories high.

The investor is a big boss in Xiangjiang.

Later, for various reasons, the apartment building was easy to own, had developed hotels, had developed food and beverages, had developed shopping malls, but every time the business was dismal, the door closed in less than a year.

Until later, when the name was changed to Eden Apartment and converted into an apartment building rented to tenants everywhere, the door was closed again and has been in operation since the 1990s.

So this apartment building is very old.

If we look at life expectancy, we are now at an advanced age, and in another 120 years we will be waiting for the building to be demolished.

Tap.

With a crisp sound, the square of the luggage and bags finally came to the aisle on the fifth floor.

One or two minutes later, Fang saw a family door, and there was actually a bowl of raw rice, and the raw rice was still lined with fragrance.

Next to the raw rice, two candles were lit.

In addition to this, there is a copper pot with burnt paper money ashes in it.

Fang looked surprised.

“I heard that people here are more traditional, more believable in Xuantology, feng shui, many people will burn paper money yuanbao in front of the house for the first seven years after people die, hang people rice, spiritual relatives home to get together, meet the last side, talk about the bitterness of the thoughts... I didn't expect to meet this unique tradition when I first came here. ”

Coincidentally, 509 is next door to the family.

Apartments around 509, 511 and 507 respectively.

Apartment on both sides of the corridor, apartment numbers on one side are odd.

Apartment numbers on the other side are even.

It's easy to find apartment numbers.

And the householder who burned paper at the door and died was apartment 507, and opposite apartment 507, apartment 508.

Perhaps because it is too early, the working people are not up yet, the front door of the house is closed, the whole corridor is cold and clear, only Fang Zheng is wandering.

“The deceased is a big one, good to go. I was just passing by, no wonder. ”

Fang was about to knock on the door of apartment 509. He must have passed apartment 507 first, so when passing the candles and the meal of the dead, Fang did not disrespect the deceased and achieved full courtesy.

And when you get to the 509, knock.

Knock, knock.

Square left hand luggage bag, right hand raised, finger knock door gently, but no one came out for two minutes to open the door.

Knock, knock.

Fangzheng knocked a few more times, people stood at the door for a few minutes, or nobody opened the door for him. Even people responded, there was no footsteps in the house.

The house behind the door is quiet.

Like someone doesn't live here?

Fang tried again a few times, but no one in the house responded.

“Was the apartment number wrong? This Ko Sook painting is too unreliable.” Square frowned.

He came all night long, and all the way to the wind and dust servant, he didn't know to eat a closed door spoon when he came to the ground.

Fang took out his phone and checked the room number of the next apartment again.

That's right.

Exactly apartment 509.

The man stood at the door and sighed slightly.

Eye of the first child!

Cold light floated in the square bottom of the eye, but no abnormality was found.

He sniffed his nose a few times.

There was also no bloody smell in the air at the door.

Temporarily ruled out the possibility that the Gaojia surveillance site could be destroyed because of exposure.

With luggage and bags in his hand, Fang stood by for more than 10 minutes. At this time, a number of tenants living in the apartment building had begun to prepare for morning practice or to get up early to shop at the nearby food market.

People bet their doubts and surprises on the one standing in the hallway.

At this time, a very fashionable young man who was about to go out in the morning and run, saw that he was waiting at the door of apartment 509, first removing the wireless sports headphones worn on his ears, then enthusiastically asked: "Dude, are you looking for someone? ”

Fang saw the other party's enthusiasm, and pretended to smile: “Yes, I just graduated from college. I was going to come to South Cantonese to join a friend introduced by relatives, but I waited for more than ten minutes to wait for someone, as if they were not home. ”

The young man who ran in the morning laughed and said, "He should be out buying takeout. ”

After that, the morning runner lifted his wrist and looked at the time on the watch and said, "He'll be back in about five minutes. ”

Smell the words, Fang was surprised: “How did you know so clearly? ”

The young man running in the morning smiled with the sun: “I go out at about this point every day to run in the morning, and the new tenants of apartment 509 have moved in. In the last 10 days, I have been able to go out every day to see him buying takeout while running in the morning. ”

Turns out it's a detail control.

He thanked each other: "Thank you, we may be neighbors in the future, don't know what to call it? ”

“Just call me Chen Yi. Chen of Eardong Chen, Yi Qi in the head of Yi Yi.” The young man who ran in the morning introduced himself.

“Oops, what a coincidence. My name is Chen too. I didn't know we were still family members. My name is Chen Chi Qi. ”

Reach out and shake hands.

Chen Yi was also happy to meet her family, and the two of them had a great time.

When Fang Zhengyi was sent downstairs to run in the morning, there was a famous 30-year-old man in a plastic bag in the stairwell, walking into the fifth floor.

The man walked straight to apartment 509, and when he saw him standing in front of the door, the man stunned.

This is clearly a positive identification.
