When the figure near the balcony looked towards Lin Mo, Lin Mo stood still and did not move. He just wrapped his body in black shadow, slightly bent his back, did not turn around, and did not make any other unnecessary movements.
He just used the corner of his eye to secretly observe the situation of the figure, and he himself wanted to pretend to be an old lady.
There was silence and no sound. The figure glanced in the direction where Lin Mo was, and then quietly turned his gaze in other directions, seemingly unaware that Lin Mo was different from them.
At this time, although the moonlight penetrated the invisible barrier and slightly illuminated the community, looking out of the window, he could see a vague figure standing on the balcony opposite. In a daze, Lin Mo had a feeling
, those people seemed to be looking at the room where he was.
I don't know if it's an illusion or if it's really like this. There are so many people and so many pairs of eyes, all looking in the direction of Lin Mo in this somewhat dark environment. The weird feeling is a bit scary.
"Did they see that I wasn't that old lady?"
Lin Mo thought so, his figure became more and more stooped, and the black shadows on his body were constantly flowing like water waves. In his mind, he recalled the old lady's standing posture when he saw her downstairs that day, and the height of the old lady. The black shadow covered the
It was as if there was a coat on my body.
Those people stood at the window and did not leave for a long time. Lin Mo could only stand here, confronting these people invisible in the darkness, waiting.
I don’t know how long has passed, ten minutes? Or half an hour? Or an hour...
The figures standing at the window finally made a move. They retreated from the window one after another and shrank into the darkness divided by the room. There was no sound. Everything was completed in silence.
There was no sound or movement in the community. When everyone slowly retreated and all figures and eyes disappeared, Lin Mo quietly retreated and returned to the living room, relaxing slowly.
tone.
"Why are the people here so strange?"
I don't know why, but according to Lin Mo's experience, he doesn't feel nervous even if he faces thousands or tens of thousands of people.
Or facing countless evil ghosts, Lin Mo would not feel anything was wrong. People who embark on this path must first develop courage, and Lin Mo was tricked by the old man when he was very young.
Go practice courage.
Lin Mo was only seven or eight years old at that time, but he had to spend the night in a mass grave, cook in a haunted house, explore ancient battlefields, or throw Lin Mo directly into the deep mountains and old forests.
These things are just a part of courage training. Lin Mo will still be afraid at the beginning, but later, this kind of thing is nothing to Lin Mo.
What a big deal.
Lin Mo has seen the most ferocious and terrifying ghosts, and has also seen thousands of troops in ancient battlefields. It can be said that Lin Mo's psychological quality should be quite good, but even so, in the environment just now
, he still felt waves of heart palpitations.
Returning to the living room again, Lin Mo was panting. The depressing feeling made him still a little out of breath.
"Who are these guys, and what's going on with those people? Why do I feel like Alexander~"
Feeling horrified, Lin Mo just tried to calm down. He turned around and glanced at the closed door. The old lady was in the room, and she didn't know what she was doing.
"It's almost time. You can leave. Be careful when you go out and don't be seen by the family next to you."
Just when Lin Mo looked at the room where the old man was, hesitating whether to go over and say hello to the old man before leaving, the door of the room suddenly opened a gap, and the old man's voice came from behind the door.
"Why does it feel like she knows what I'm doing? Is there a surveillance camera installed in this living room?"
Lin Mo was muttering in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He had already checked whether there was surveillance in this room when he came in. There were no technological products in this living room, it was very simple.
Except for the necessary kitchen utensils, everything else is exactly the same as in ordinary homes.
"Okay, please have a good rest, then I'll leave first."
He waved to the old man and put the jar away without caring whether the old lady could see it. Lin Mo walked towards the door. There was no sound of opening or closing the door behind him. The old man was obviously standing at the door. From there,
Lin Mo's movements were observed through the crack in the door.
Lin Mo didn't mind anything about this. Although the two of them said they had reached a deal, there was no trust between them at all. It was normal for the old man to be more defensive.
After all, Lin Mo actually had the idea of snatching the black paper lantern. Although he gave it up, it also proved how unstable the fragile connection between him and the old man was.
"No need to close the door, I'll just close it."
Lin Mo had just walked to the door when the old man's voice came from behind him. The old lady walked out of the room quietly and came to Lin Mo's back.
"This old lady is a bit evil~"
Subconsciously, he became vigilant and found that the other party did not have any hostility towards him. Lin Mo then forced a smile.
"Why bother you, old man, to come out in person for such a trivial matter? Can't you just close the door for me?"
There was a hint of reluctance in his smile, and Lin Mo thought to himself: "Do I look like such a bad guy? Am I so worried?"
in the dark
, the old man shook his head and spoke slowly.
"You can't close this door. Forget it. We don't have much time. Leave quickly. I will prepare the black paper lantern tomorrow. Just come and get it."
The faint voice came out, and the old man didn't explain too much to Lin Mo. He sent Lin Mo out of the door without closing the door.
"Are you afraid of making noise and attracting other people's attention?"
With this thought in his mind, Lin Mo did not dwell on this issue. He was coming over tomorrow anyway, so he would have time to investigate this matter later.
Turning around and taking a step, Lin Mo was wrapped in the power of the shadow. Lin Mo didn't make any sound as he walked. He quickly left the door of the old man's room and came to the elevator. However, after thinking for a moment, Lin Mo turned in one direction and turned.
Entered the safe passage.
The fourth floor was not very high, and the old man did not use the elevator before going downstairs. Lin Mo also chose to take the stairs out of caution.
Now that the city is getting better and better in all aspects and the buildings are getting higher and higher, taking the elevator has become the best choice for most people to go upstairs, but Lin Mo doesn't like to be enclosed in a
Inside the small iron box.
Although the safety of elevators is guaranteed in many places, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents at all?
Even if the elevator has a brake, the stairs are safer than the stairs.
This garden community is not peaceful. Although those people have dispersed, Lin Mo has not figured out where they went. Under such circumstances, the possibility of strange things happening is very high. Under such circumstances,
If he chooses to take the elevator next time, it is tantamount to walking into another dilemma alone. Once something happens, he will fall into even greater trouble.
Walking on the stairs, although there was darkness all around, the emergency lights in the corridor were on. Lin Mo's steps were very light, and the corridor was full of voice-activated lights, but his walking did not cause the voice-activated lights to change.
Slowly walking to the first floor, Lin Mo walked to the door of the building and used the power of the black shadow to wrap his body. A trace of black shadow spread along the palm of his hand and locked the door. He quietly opened the door lock and pushed the door open.
There was a small crack, and I looked out cautiously.
Outside the door, there was an empty world. The crowds that had previously made the entire community extremely crowded had disappeared. The moonlight shone on the ground, creating a cool atmosphere.
Stepping out of the building of unit 4, Lin Mo's body was still enveloped by the power of the black shadow. Because he had seen people on the balcony of every house before, Lin Mo did not dare to be careless at this time. He closed the door quietly and walked smoothly.
He left Building 4 following the shadow, and hiding in the shadow, he saw the security room with lights back on.
"It's time to have a good chat with this old man~"
