While Dong Ning continued to explain to the police, Dong Xie began to pay attention to the room.
There may very well be clues there.
Then, he patted Dong Ning's shoulder, covered his nose and said, "Ah Ning, this smell seems to be coming from there. Let's go there and have a look?"
Frankly speaking, the stench... made him suspect that it was caused by the decomposing corpse!
But it's winter now, and even Feng Yu, who died the earliest, shouldn't be smelling bad now. What's more, this house is obviously not directly above the one they entered on the third floor.
Dong Ning looked at the door, nodded, and said, "Yes...yes. Brother, let's go take a look?"
"Wait...this is not your home either..."
But Dong Xie didn't wait for the police to finish speaking, and took Dong Ning's hand and rushed to the door. When he arrived in front of the door, he asked Ah Ning to stand behind him, held the door handle, and then quickly opened it! Mission in Scarlet
By now, his tolerance for terror has been greatly improved, and he is fully mentally prepared. Even if he sees Sadako Yamamura appearing inside, he won't feel scared anymore.
The door opens...
The stench almost hit his nostrils, making Dong Xie almost vomit.
No matter how dirty the toilet was, he had never smelled such a disgusting stench! He immediately covered his nose subconsciously, and then walked into the room. At the same time, he turned back and whispered to Dong Ning: "Don't come in, I'm on my own.
People go in."
Zhao Long's voice came from behind: "Well, police officer, don't pay too much attention. My brothers and sisters usually read too many mystery novels, so...well, I want to ask you, who called the police?"
Zhao Long apparently helped them hold off the police so that Dong Xie and Dong Ning could explore the room.
After Dong Xie asked Dong Ning to guard the door for him, he walked in. This study room only had a writing desk and a bookshelf that was two meters high. There were still many books placed on the bookshelf.
The stench came from the bookshelf in front of me.
Dong Xie covered his nose and walked towards the bookshelf step by step.
At this time, his imagination as a horror novelist began to come into play again. Could it be that someone killed someone here in the past and then sealed the body in the wall, causing a stench? Is this the origin of the evil spirit?
Dong Xie slowly walked to the bookshelf. Fortunately, there was a window in the study room, so a ray of moonlight shone in.
The moonlight projected by this window made him feel a little more at ease.
Then, Dong Xie walked to the bookshelf.
"Um...are these?"
Most of the books on the books were very old books. He flipped through a few books and discovered that the publication dates of these books were from the 1980s to 1990s!
"Sure enough, the people living here are old people..." Dong Xie looked at the book in his hand, which was so old that the pages were almost falling apart.
He put the book back and continued to look at it.
"Um?"
He found that there was a very eye-catching crack on the upper side of the bookshelf.
"this……"
He was about to take a closer look when the moonlight outside suddenly became brighter. It seemed that the clouds covering the moon had dispersed.
Dong Xie himself is 1.9 meters tall, so if he stands on tiptoe, he can see the top side of the bookshelf. The crack is quite deep and very eye-catching.
Just then, the police walked in.
"Don't look around. This place may be the scene of a crime. Get out first."
"okay."
Dong Xie had no choice but to walk out. At this time, he suddenly noticed that something was obviously wrong with A Ning's expression.
Dong Ning pulled Dong Xie aside and said to him: "You...didn't you notice?"
"What's the meaning?"
"In terms of room structure, the location of that study room is exactly...directly below the room where you saw your eyes through the gap in the floor!"
At this time, Dong Xie felt a chill on his back!
"you sure?"
"I'm sure! However, I just saw you entering the study and it suddenly occurred to me. I originally wanted to pull you out, but then I thought that it is not safe anywhere. Maybe you can get clues to your way out of here."
Dong Xie looked back at the study room, where the stench came from...
"Everything was arranged by the apartment. It happened that the room upstairs could be opened so that we could go in. Then... let us..."
Dong Xie felt like he had goosebumps all over his body at this moment.
In this dark room, that terrifying evil spirit may be hiding at any time.
"The dead landlady is not the truly terrifying entity in this mission with scarlet letters. What is terrifying... is the old man holding the cat!"
Among all the horror movies Dong Xie watched in order to write horror novels, his favorite Western horror film was the Conjuring series directed by James Wan, who is also a fan of the Cthulhu Mythos. Among them, he especially loved "The Conjuring 2", which first appeared in the movie.
The dead old man was a cover used to paralyze the exorcists under the control of the real terrifying existence behind the scenes, the evil nun. The landlady probably played the role of the former. The landlady's appearance just now was to force them to enter the house.
Inside, they had to be trapped here. When the door was closed, the coughing sound disappeared directly. This cannot be a coincidence.
This phenomenon should be a limitation of the apartment.
At this time, the policeman was in the study. After all, that was the source of the stench. He probably went in just now to look for any new clues.
Dong Xie felt that he needed to go to another room and take a closer look.
Next to it, there was only a kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom. The bedroom door was wide open, and I didn't know if it was the policeman who opened it.
Dong Xie and Dong Ning walked over there this time. Dong Xie opened the door slightly and looked inside. The windows in the bedroom were much larger, and the moonlight became much brighter at this time, so the bedroom was not very dark.
.This also increased Dong Xie’s courage a lot.
However, there is only one bed and one cabinet in the entire bedroom, and the furniture is extremely simple.
And there is a full-length mirror inlaid on that cabinet. Looking at that mirror is really scary. In the countless horror novels written by Dong Xie himself, the mirror is a prop that he frequently uses to shape the atmosphere. Now, he
You can really experience it.
However, Dong Xie was worried about letting Dong Ning guard the door alone, and planned to ask Zhao Long to come over. But at this time, he heard Zhao Long walking into the study and chatting with the police: "Officer, how did your colleague disappear like this?
It sounds incredible."
"Forget it, just wait a while."
At this moment, Dong Ning suddenly thought of something and looked towards the study room.
"Wait a minute...brother."
"What's wrong?"
"I feel something's not right..."
"What's wrong?"
An idea came to Dong Ning's mind, and then she quickly walked to the door of the room and turned the door handle, but the door still could not be opened.
"What's wrong?" Dong Xie walked up to Dong Ning at this time and asked, "What are you doing?"
Dong Ning slowly turned back and looked in the direction of the study. Zhao Long was standing at the door, talking to the police inside. The purpose of standing at the door was to prevent the door from automatically locking.
"I... think... too much... right?"
Dong Xie looked at Dong Ning's face and was about to ask what happened when he heard a scream from behind him! Then, the two of them turned around and saw the door of the study room being closed! Zhao Long's screams were heard from inside.
Call!
"No!" Dong Ning's legs weakened and she collapsed on the ground!
That policeman...isn't a real policeman!
He just said, "You cannot contact the police station if your mobile phone is not working." But in fact, police usually use police walkie-talkies, because walkie-talkies can quickly establish communication compared to mobile phones (mobile phones need to dial to connect with the other party) and are not like mobile phones.
It will be highly dependent on the base station, not to mention the outer suburbs where the signal itself is relatively poor! If it is a real policeman, he should first contact the police station using a walkie-talkie instead of a mobile phone!
"You... you are not a policeman, you are... ahhhh, no ahhhh!"
In the study room, Zhao Long's heart-rending howl could be heard!
The door behind them could not be opened... Dong Xie and Dong Ning realized that they were destined to die in this place!
