Of course, one thing is basically certain.
The strange incident in Yinyuan Apartment Building is by no means just a case of ghosts causing trouble, there must be someone behind it.
Looking back now, maybe Lao Dong was just one of the pawns in this weird incident, and the earphone incident was just a branch of this series of weird cases.
It’s just that I happened to be sucked into the weird vortex of Yinyuan Apartment and became a part of it.
And what Old Principal Mei saw and considered may be just a branch of the strange incident in Yinyuan Apartment, and it was only a part of it.
In other words, the whole strange incident in Yinyuan Apartment may involve many small branch cases. These branch incidents influence each other, penetrate each other, and are ultimately intertwined, forming the complicated and confusing situation today.
Although these branch events can provide some clues, they still cannot fully reveal the entire big event and cannot solve the overall situation.
It is true that you can slowly find out some useful information by peeling off the cocoons.
But Jiang Yue couldn't tell clearly when he would be able to dig out the core things if he digs out bit by bit like this.
How many gangsters are there in this apartment? Is the gangster who has complete control behind the scenes the original Master Liu?
Jiang Yue fell into deep thought.
The existing clues about this apartment have basically been unearthed. I originally thought that the truth would come to light when we arrived at Apartment No. 1814.
Now it seems that the problem is still too simple.
Principal Mei's situation at that time, there were not many useful clues he could provide after all. His vision was limited after all. It was already good to be able to see that there was a problem in 1814, and it would be unrealistic to ask for more.
The previous three playing cards pointed to Apartment No. 1811, so Jiang Yue naturally remembered them.
This is also a clue.
But according to Jiang Yue's estimate, the ghost must have had some intention in giving this hint before it was on the verge of death, but he probably had the same limited vision as Mr. Mei, and still couldn't get to the core.
However, even so, you should always go and see it.
1811 is not far anyway, and there are only two apartments between it and 1814.
Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Yue's nose suddenly twitched. There seemed to be a faint strange smell in the air.
This breath seems to be that something is burning. It is the smell of something burning.
As soon as the idea came to his mind, Jiang Yue noticed something was wrong.
Looking outside, I found that the living room was instantly engulfed in a sea of fire.
When he first took a glance, he only saw a little bit of fire. After this glance, the entire living room seemed to have been poured with gasoline, and it burned into a sea of fire in an instant, and the area burned almost increased tenfold in one second.
The monstrous fire roared toward them like a living fire dragon.
Heat Lang rushed to Jiang Yue and the others without even saying hello.
Luo Chu groaned, never expecting that the fire started so suddenly and spread so quickly.
This caught people completely off guard.
Jiang Yue reacted quickly. The fire-proofing talisman he carried was activated instantly. He didn't care about avoiding any suspicion. He picked up Luo Chu and instead of retreating, he rushed towards the door.
As soon as Jiang Yue rushed to the door, the security door slammed shut.
This security door was left open because Jiang Yue had broken the lock bolt before.
At this time, it closed automatically for no apparent reason, as if there was an invisible hand in the dark deliberately closing the door.
Just, can an unlocked door shut someone?
Jiang Yue pushed smoothly, trying to take advantage of the situation and rush out of the door. However, with this push, he was unable to push the door open. He just felt the door slightly move out, and immediately encountered a rebound force, which forced the door shut again.
Closed.
This is to trap them alive in a sea of fire.
Jiang Yue sneered, if it weren't for the fire-proofing talisman by his side, he might have missed the mark this time and been plotted against.
Protected by the fire-proofing talisman, although the fire was fierce, it could not harm them for a moment or three. Luo Chu was carried on Jiang Yue's body, and he was also within the protection range of the fire-proofing talisman, so he would not be injured for a moment or three.
Of course, Jiang Yue did not intend to let himself be trapped in this security door.
Although I am not afraid of the fire, it is hard to say whether the fire-preventing talisman can be carried to the end after a long time.
Who knows if the other party has any other back-ups?
With all his strength, his whole body hit the door like a cannonball.
Just a few screams were heard outside the door, and the entire security door flew out together with the door frame and hit the opposite side of the corridor hard.
boom!
A line of black smoke billowed out of the corridor and fled the scene.
Another group of ghosts?
Jiang Yue looked at the escaping ghosts and knew that these ghosts were afraid of his own methods and did not dare to fight head-on.
Oddly enough, the fire was actually well controlled.
When Jiang Yue and the others rushed to the corridor, they no longer felt the threat of the fire at all.
The fire was perfectly controlled in Apartment 1814, and not even a single flame leaked out. It was simply unbelievable.
Luo Chu was let down by Jiang Yue, and for a while he was as silent as a cicada, unable to make a sound.
At that moment, he almost felt that the God of Death had arrived. The terrifying fire could swallow them up almost instantly.
Who would have thought that Jiang Yue would carry him and run out unscathed?
Even, not even a few hairs were burnt?
The moment he was carried by Jiang Yue, Luo Chu didn't even notice the feeling of rolling heat, as if the raging sea of fire was an illusion, just an illusion.
But he knew that it was definitely not an illusion.
When the spitting fire dragon rushed into the bedroom, the heat wave that enveloped it almost made Luo Chu faint for the first time. If Jiang Yue hadn't acted quickly, Luo Chu would never have been able to survive for five seconds.
Luo Chu stared at the sky inside and outside the house, still unable to understand how the fire started? How was it controlled within the house and not spread?
This apartment, which is just a card table and a mahjong table, does not have many flammable materials. Why can the fire burn so fiercely all at once?
Is it a gas leak?
Or is the house full of gasoline?
None of them look alike!
Jiang Yue saw that Luo Chu, who had always been calm, was a little distracted, so he couldn't help but remind him: "Luo Chu, please calm down."
Luo Chu was so excited that he regained consciousness.
I cannot hold back like Mr. Na Ke.
“Xiao Jiang, it seems that we are getting closer to the truth. Our opponent can’t sit still and has started to take the initiative to attack!”
It is not unreasonable for Luo Chu to analyze this way.
Jiang Yue gestured to Luo Chu to cheer up. He turned the corner and came to the door of Apartment No. 1811.
Since every move may be monitored by the other party, there is no need to dodge.
Hash the door open directly.
This apartment is not as large as 1814, but the layout is very reasonable. The most rare thing is that the room is very warmly tidied.
The hostess seems to be the kind of woman who is neat and capable and good at housework.
This is quite consistent with the image of the ghost on the verge of destruction.
The background wall behind the sofa in this apartment is decorated with a photo wall, with many exquisite and small photo frames hanging on it, some large and some small, with many photos inside.
Although there are more than a dozen photos, there are only two people.
One of them is the woman in her thirties, and there is a boy, who should be her child. The two people in the photo should have a mother-son relationship.
There is obviously a timeline in the photos, which is about one photo per year, from the time he was born to the latest photo, which shows a young man of thirteen or fourteen years old.
And a woman transforms from the youthfulness of a first-time mother into a mature woman.
Although the photo has no story, it does reveal a piece of information: the woman’s husband and the child’s father do not appear in the photo.
This is mostly a single-parent family.
In the corner of the living room, a camp bed was folded and leaned against the corner without unfolding it.
In addition, there is a desk and a chair in the living room. There is no coffee table or TV cabinet at all, not even a TV.
The layout of the bedroom is also very simple. The bed is the simplest wooden bed, and the cabinet does not look new. When the wardrobe is opened, the clothes between mother and son are placed on each side. It seems that there are not many clothes.
Especially for a woman in her thirties, this family background is definitely shabby.
Jiang Yue looked around, feeling a little confused for a moment.
The ghost woman left her room number when she was about to die. What did she want to express? It seems that there are no weird clues in this apartment.
A perfectly normal apartment building.
There is no reason why, when you are on the verge of destruction, you still have the heart to make such a big joke, right?
However, Jiang Yue immediately remembered the sadness, the nostalgia, the emotion that penetrated the human soul before the ghost's death, but it didn't seem to be fake.
At that time, her eyes were full of reluctance, and it was obvious that there was something she couldn't let go of.
So, does she actually want to entrust you with something?
What can a ghost not let go of when it is about to die?
if so……
Jiang Yue looked up at the photos on the background wall, looking at the timeline of growing up from a baby to a handsome young man year by year...
Is he her son?
It’s her son she can’t let go of?
Could it be that her son is not in the apartment building? He has not been killed yet?
This conjecture made Jiang Yue's heart suddenly move.
The reluctance and uneasiness in the eyes of the ghost woman could not help but appear in my mind.
If the child is not in the apartment, what does she have to worry about?
If the child is not in the apartment, where should he be at this moment?
Jiang Yue walked to the desk and quickly found the answer. On the shelf of the desk, Jiang Yue found some clues about the child.
Star City No. 1 Middle School!
This child is thirteen years old and goes to school in Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School.
Jiang Yue guessed that this child should be a boarder. This can be seen from the camp bed in the living room. This camp bed is not opened at ordinary times and is only used when he goes home on weekends.
And many things on his desk are not used very frequently, which also proves that this child is not at home every day.
If you are a boarding student, you can only go home once every weekend.
“Luo Chu, what day is it today?”
“Let’s do it on Friday...” Luo Chu replied subconsciously.
“Are you familiar with Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School?” Jiang Yue suddenly asked again.
“I’ve been there several times.”
“When can the boarding students of No. 1 Middle School usually go home?”
“Let me think about it, I remember passing by Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School often. They have a night self-study system. It seems that the day students can only go back after nine o’clock in the evening. As for the boarding students, they must not be able to go back before the weekend, right?”
Jiang Yue looked at his phone and saw that it was now around 8:40 pm.
Unknowingly, they had been staying in this apartment for several hours.
Jiang Yue’s brows twitched.
Today is Friday. If we have a weekend off, then wouldn’t it be the time for the child to go home after evening self-study on Friday night?
For a moment, Jiang Yue suddenly understood the meaning of the woman's eyes.
She was worried that her son would come home from the weekend break, enter the apartment, and break into this hell.
Even if she becomes a ghost, she does not want her child to follow in the same footsteps. She still hopes that her child can live well. The child is still young and should not die like this!
This is a great maternal love that moved Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue could not sit idly by.
However, including the time the children spend on the road, the journey will not exceed an hour.
How to prevent the child from coming back in this hour? In other words, if the child comes back, how to ensure that he will not be harmed in the first place?
Go downstairs to intercept the other party. It’s definitely too late to go downstairs now.
But, after they enter this apartment building, can they really go downstairs?
Jiang Yue has never been optimistic about this.
Calling the other party to inform them is obviously unrealistic.
Firstly, there is no contact information, and secondly, the mobile phone signal is completely blocked, making it impossible to make calls.
Jiang Yue searched the bedroom, trying to find more useful information. There was a cabinet drawer in the bedroom that was locked.
The lock of the drawer was very fragile, Jiang Yue pulled the drawer open with a gentle tug.
The first thing you see is a bank card with a note attached to the side of the bank card.
“Zijian, the card contains all our family’s savings, and the password is our family’s general password...Mom loves you!!!”
This note was written in a hurry, but Jiang Yue could see that the person who wrote this note obviously had a thousand words to say, but in the end it only turned into four words, Mom loves you.
To replace a thousand words with four characters, is it too late to write more, or is it inconvenient to write more?
Jiang Yue was a little embarrassed for a while.
He thought of his mother and the dream he had every day some time ago.
If the mother had not had an accident, she would have loved her children as much as this mother, right?
Luo Chu was attacked by fire before, but this time he was much more careful.
When Jiang Yue was in the back room, he used the wall as a cover and observed everything going on outside.
Suddenly, Jiang Yue gently pushed the drawer open.
He ducked to Luo Chu's side and whispered: "Someone is coming!"
Someone is indeed coming!
He actually heard footsteps, very real footsteps! The footsteps came from far to near, the steps were brisk, and it sounded extremely cheerful!
In this weird apartment building, where ghosts are lingering everywhere, there are such light footsteps. Jiang Yue and Luo Chu feel obviously not relaxed, but shocked, and even a little scary.
When the footsteps approached 1811, they actually stopped.
They actually heard the sound of the door being pulled open.
At the same time, a young man's voice came: "Mom, why don't you close the door? Is there a power outage in the apartment? These dozen or so steps are exhausting me!"
mom?
Jiang Yue and Luo Chu felt a sense of absurdity at the same time.
That's the photo. Has the child gone home?
Isn’t there evening self-study at nine o’clock? It’s not even nine o’clock, why are you back?
