Hearing this, Jiang Qinian was silent for a while.
Then, after he cleared his thoughts, he asked Huang Shushu:
"Shu Shu, can you tell me in detail?"
"Xiaotong is a little boy who lives in 401. He is about the same age as me. His parents died in a car accident, and he has been living alone since then.
Since my situation was similar to his, I met him by chance.
He has a withdrawn personality, and no one in the community wants to play with him. As for me, because my family has become like this, most people will avoid me when they see me.
Only he did not choose to leave when he saw me for the first time, but stood there timidly asking for my name and house number.
So we became good friends.
If nothing happens every day, he will basically come to play with me.
But until one day something suddenly happened.
I waited for him at home for a long time and he didn't come, so I was very worried because he does what he says and has never been late or late.
In addition, I heard the door of the room next door being closed and closed, so I noticed something was wrong.
In fact, I had never spoken to the couple in 303 before. I don’t know why, even though they seemed very kind on the surface, I would feel very uncomfortable once I got too close to them.
It's like there's a constant cold wind, making people's skin crawl.
So I usually avoid them.
Because we live next door, I hear them go to work on time every morning.
Only the sound of the security door that day seemed very abnormal, and Xiaotong never came to me, so I realized that something might have happened."
Speaking of this, Jiang Qinian seemed to understand something.
He nodded, and then continued to ask:
"You noticed something was wrong, so you went out to check, and you found out that they took Xiaotong to the fifth floor, right??"
"right."
Huang Shushu nodded in a low mood, his expression full of sadness.
"I was afraid something might happen to Xiaotong, so I hid at the door and listened to their footsteps.
After confirming that they were upstairs, I opened the door and followed them. I didn't know if they noticed me, but I thought they might know that I had been following them.
Because when I turned the corner, I clearly heard Xiaotong wailing. It seemed like the couple was deliberately torturing him.
A long trail of blood was sprinkled on the stairs, and it looked like Xiaotong should have been dragged up.
The last time Xiaotong and I saw each other was on the fifth floor.
At that time, the couple happened to close the door, and Xiaotong saw me hiding in the corner through the crack in the door, so he kept shaking his head at me, as if to tell me not to save him.
But how can I care so much?
Xiaotong was the first person who was willing to play with me before, and also my first friend.
So the moment the door was about to close, I rushed there quickly, trying to rescue him.
Unfortunately, that couple was faster. As soon as I ran up, they slammed the security door shut with a bang. No matter how hard I slapped it, it was to no avail. The door didn't move at all.
I think this must be some kind of trick they used.
Because the security door is not very strong, it should not be impossible for me to open it, but I almost tried all my strength and the door was still intact.
I just kept banging on the door and shouting. Eventually I got tired of shouting and could only sit down in front of the door and breathe heavily. I waited there for a whole day, but I didn't see them come out.
And Xiaotong has been silent since entering.
I have no idea how I came back in the end. Anyway, wait
When I came to my senses again, it was already the next morning.
My head was so dizzy at the time that I even thought what happened that day was just a nightmare.
With such an unrealistic idea, I sat at the door waiting for Xiaotong's arrival. Maybe after eight o'clock, he would still appear in front of me jumping from upstairs.
But unfortunately...I didn't wait for him...
Everything I saw that day was true. Xiaotong was really taken away by them and stayed in 503 forever.
As his friend, I can't even avenge him, and I don't even know what he went through..."
While talking, Huang Shushu couldn't help sobbing.
Seeing this, Jiang Qinian sighed helplessly, then patted her shoulder gently, allowing her to vent her sadness and pain.
Finally, after crying for a while, Huang Shushu seemed to relax a little.
With red eyes, she wiped the tears on her face, and then asked Jiang Qinian:
"If you want to deal with them, I can help you, and I can even bring you some friends.
After becoming friends with Xiaotong, my personality became much more cheerful, so I got to know other residents in this building.
So if you really want to get rid of them, I can help you.
You...you can be considered my friend. It was because of me that I didn't save Xiaotong. Now no matter what, I can no longer just watch you have accidents."
Hearing this, Jiang Qinian felt warm in his heart.
Even in this dark life, Huang Shushu still maintains a kind and pure childlike innocence.
Although she can also kill people, at least she has nothing to say about how she treats her friends. In comparison, the seemingly glamorous ghost couple seems even more miserable.
"Thank you Shu Shu.
But my idea is not just to get rid of them. The crimes they committed are heinous. If I just slap my ass and leave, you will be the ones in danger.
So in that case, it’s better to join forces and kill them once and for all, so that all the residents in the building will no longer be threatened by them.”
"But...but..."
Huang Shushu hesitated.
Of course she wanted to avenge Xiaotong, but the reason why she had delayed until now was simply because after calming down, she knew that she was definitely no match for the ghost couple.
She and the residents of 101 were the most terrifying people in the whole building, but the ghost couple seemed like anomalies and could not be treated with common sense.
If she rushes forward as soon as her head gets hot, the result will most likely be similar to Xiaotong's.
"What's wrong? Do you have any questions?"
Seeing this, Jiang Qinian asked Huang Shushu very patiently.
At the same time, he was thinking about other things in his mind.
The characteristic of the ghost couple seems to be to target children who are not very old. Xiaotong is an orphan, so it is natural that they become their target.
And the reason why Huang Shushu was not touched.
It probably had something to do with the male corpse. Maybe they didn't know that the male corpse was unconscious, so they let Huang Shushu leave.
But the only thing he couldn't figure out was what exactly the fifth floor was for?
The experiments they conducted were related to psychology, so there was definitely no need to use hooks and other items, because this kind of perverted experiment was far more cruel than killing a person.
At the very least, if you kill someone, the victim will only feel fear and despair at the beginning, but as life passes, these negative emotions will disappear.
But doing experiments is different.
In the experiment, the victims had to experience the feeling of being surrounded by negative emotions all the time, and life was just a kind of pain and torture for them.
Judging from the information just investigated, many experimental subjects will try every means to end their lives in order to escape from this abyss.
Without exception
, they all failed in the end.
But even so, they could not change the outcome of death, and the cause of death was not indicated in the information.
From this point of view, the ghost couple should have absolute control over them. Even their lives are held in their hands by the ghost couple and they cannot decide their own life or death.
If this is the case, then what was the reason for their final death?
To say that one or two children succeeded in committing suicide due to the negligence of the ghost couple. Among the ninety-nine children, except for the last child named "Xia Zhi" who successfully escaped, the rest all died. The truth is somewhat intriguing.
Since the ghost couple did not allow them to die, there are only two reasons.
One is that they believe that their power of life and death should be controlled by themselves, in order to satisfy their perverted desire for control, and the other is that they should be the failed products of these experiments... and there are other uses!
What's the use?
Is there any connection with room 503?
In an instant, Jiang Qinian thought of many things.
Maybe the secret of the death of these experimental subjects...is related to Room 503.
Xiaotong is not considered a failure.
Among the list of victims he saw, there was indeed a child with Tong in his name.
But none of these people match the age.
The youngest among them is already fourteen years old.
After hearing Jiang Qinian's inquiry, Huang Shushu hesitated and said:
"I...can we really defeat them?
Even with my father by my side, I still think that couple is very scary and I can't compete with them at all."
"Don't worry, isn't it me?
If we are timid because of fear, then they will kill more people.
Xiaotong's tragedy is not the ending, but a beginning.
We must find a way to figure out what the fifth floor is about, and then start dealing with them." qs
Jiang Qinian's idea is very simple.
In the beginning, he really wanted to use the identity of the ghost couple to protect himself.
But only if they don't go beyond a certain range.
Now the performance of the ghost couple is obviously beyond everyone's expectations, so Jiang Qinian doesn't intend to compromise anymore.
Now I have successfully established a friendship with Huang Shushu. When the time comes, I will get to know Huang Shushu's friends again, and I will be able to get along well in this building.
After all, with the continuous in-depth investigation, the behavior of the ghost couple becomes more and more terrifying. If they are accidentally tricked, they will definitely die without any body parts!!
