Chapter 263
It was clearly daytime, but the doors and windows were closed, and there was no sound, and there was no drying clothes in the yard. All signs indicate that the owners of these houses were not at home.
Lu Weiwei observed from the map and found that the place they are now in is the area with the highest mortality rate.
This is an ordinary street with houses of varying heights on both sides. The couplets outside the door fade and turn into ugly gray-brown, broken and old.
Just looking at it this way, I can't see any problem for a while.
"Whose house is this?" Chen Yan looked up at the front building, "it was built with a true magnificent building, no worse than a villa."
Lu Weiwei looked at the door number and saw the house number, "No. 17, Nanhu Lane... It is the family surnamed Hu, and four people died of infection."
Four people died...
She felt a little suffocated, and when she looked at the houses in front of her, her mood became much heavier.
Among all the houses, the Hu family building is the most conspicuous, with green tiles and white walls, three floors high, and a very open platform on the second floor, with white railings surrounding it, which is particularly fashionable. The courtyard wall is also different from the cement walls of other people's houses, and is a courtyard wall with a column iron art style.
Through the iron fence, you can see trees planted in the yard, two cars parked, a small truck, a car, and some miscellaneous items...
Lu Weiwei was observing, and Chen Yan beside him said, "It seems that there is someone upstairs."
She narrowed her eyes slightly and saw an old man sitting by the window on the second floor, motionless, as if looking at them, a little scary.
"You can wait for me for a while." Sister Mei suddenly threw down a sentence and turned around and left.
Lu Weiwei and Chen Yan were both stunned.
Not long after, Sister Mei came back, and a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old was followed by him.
Sister Mei pointed to several nearby houses and said to the boy with a smile: "Little handsome guy, we are investigators in the law firm. Today I come to investigate the situation. Can you tell us about the situation of these families? Where are we... we can pay you."
She took out a hundred dollars and put it in the boy's palm.
There is no need to do anything, you just need to talk and you can get one hundred yuan. The boy has no reason to refuse.
"I don't recognize the two companies on the right, I know everything else. Didn't they just get sick three years ago? They all died, the house was empty and there was no one to live in, and they couldn't even be sold. They said they were haunted!"
"Haunted?" Lu Weiwei opened her eyes wide, and she was a little scared of this.
But the boy smiled and grinned and showed his teeth, "Fake it! It's Old Man Hu who always likes to scream foolishly. Sometimes he would run out in the middle of the night, and the screams were so bad."
"Old man Hu?" Sister Mei exchanged a look with Lu Weiwei, and pointed at the figure beside the window on the second floor, "Is the old man Hu you are talking about? "Is it him?"
"Yes, it's him." The boy nodded, "all his family members died, and later it became a little abnormal. When he was not crazy, he was like now. He could eat, sleep, and buy vegetables and cook. When he was crazy, it was hard to say. Once I happened to meet him wearing only shorts in winter!"
Lu Weiwei couldn't help asking: "All his family members are dead, so why is he okay?"
Logically, the resistance of the elderly should be weaker.
"He was not in the village at that time," the boy said. "He wanted to see the gate of the laboratory factory, but he would not live in the village."
Sister Mei asked him: "Are there anyone else in your village working at the experimental base?"
The boy replied, "I've gone too much. The canteen of the experimental factory is my third aunt and third uncle. The vegetables are also bought from my house. There are also nursing staff from the experiment factory, sweeping floors and doing odd jobs, all of whom are hired from our village!"
"Can you take us to find these people?" Lu Weiwei said politely, "We want to learn more about the situation back then."
The boy was about to nod, but suddenly he paused and grinned again: "Why should those people count the money?"
