Chapter 27: The Apartment is Haunted
◎Grave View Room◎
The interrogation room was crowded with people. A group of police officers surrounded Megure Kasuga. Some of them even wanted to come up and control her, but were stopped by Officer Megure who raised his hand.
Just three minutes earlier, the interrogation room had been peaceful, with Megure Kasei and Koki Mitsukazu sitting face to face, conversing. Inspector Megure and Takagi were also standing outside the door, not entering but keeping an eye on the goings on inside. Suddenly, Megure Kasei, who had been talking with his back to them, produced a knife from nowhere, plunged it into the table, and spoke to Koki Mitsukazu, seemingly threatening him.
Xiao Mu Guanghe's face gradually became very frightened, and he kept shouting something, but unfortunately the sound insulation effect was too good, and the two people standing outside could not hear what he said at all. They could only see his mouth constantly opening and closing, and his face looked frightened and hideous.
Inspector Megure immediately realized that something was wrong and rushed forward to try to open the door of the interrogation room, but found that it was locked. He was upset and felt careless.
He then quickly asked Takagi to get the key, while he kept knocking on the door, trying to attract the attention of the person inside, but Mu'an Jiaxi seemed not to hear him and did not even turn his head.
Soon Takagi's key was brought over, and Officer Megure immediately made way for him to open the door. As the door opened, the police on standby outside rushed in and surrounded the two of them.
As soon as Officer Megure saw Meian Jiaxi, he shouted, "Do you know where this place is? What are you doing? You brought a knife with you. Do you want to kill someone?"
Mu An Jiaxi's face, which had been fierce and threatening just now, suddenly turned into a friendly one. He smiled and said, "I was just trying to scare him. This will also help you speed up the process. My trick is quite effective. You see, a little scare solves everything."
"Well, are you trying to scare me? If you don't know how to use it, you could kill someone. Look at the knife you used, you almost cut his neck."
"No, I have a good grasp of the scale, so nothing like that will happen."
"I say you are really bold. You dare to bring a knife here. You really are..."
Officer Megure was interrupted by Meian Jiaxi before he could finish. "Officer Megure, please stop praising me. I'm doing this for you. You guys have so many cases all day long, and I feel bad to bother you with such a small matter. So I'm going to help you speed up the process. I don't think there's anything else to do here, so I'll be leaving first. Bye, no need to see me off."
After saying that, Mu'an Jiaxi was about to run away, but he only took half a step when he was stopped by the police. Officer Megure turned around and said, "You want to leave now?"
Mu'an Jiaxi slapped his forehead suddenly, as if he suddenly remembered something. "Oh, yes, yes, there's something else." He took out a piece of paper and a pen from his pocket, wrote down a string of numbers, and stuffed it into his hand. "This is my bank card number. Remember to transfer the compensation to me."
Seeing his face gradually getting darker and darker, Mu Anjiaxi decided that the best strategy was to run away. "Haha, it's nothing, then. I'll be leaving first. You guys have worked hard."
Then, without paying any attention to the hand that was blocking her, she bent down and slipped under it. As nimble as a loach, she quickly ran towards the door. The police reacted and wanted to chase her, but were stopped by Inspector Megure who was standing by. "Forget it, no need to chase."
Mu'an Jiaxi practically ran all the way out of the Metropolitan Police Department. Seeing no one was chasing him, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh my god, this is exciting! Who else could be this good? It's me. This is so awesome! I'm the first one to dare to threaten someone with a knife in the Metropolitan Police Department. This is absolutely amazing! It feels great!"
Then she looked around, paid attention to the traffic, walked across the street, and decided to look for a house and solve the housing problem first.
As she stepped onto the stairs, a man in a suit suddenly appeared in front of her from nowhere. "Miss, would you like to see a house? I have all kinds of houses here. They are all cheap."
Mu An Jiaxi was startled. He looked at the person who suddenly appeared with a face full of question marks. Is this what he thought would happen? Why does it feel like there is some conspiracy?
Under the agent's enthusiastic recommendation, Mu'an Jiaxi finally took the flyer from him. The young man's eyes lit up when she took the flyer, thinking it was a good opportunity. He enthusiastically introduced it, "Look at this house, miss! It's in the best location in the area, and it's newly developed, only three minutes from the subway station. The environment is beautiful, not noisy, the room layout is especially good, and the price is also very good. Why don't you take a look? I guarantee you'll like it after you see it."
Mu'an Jiaxi took the flyer and looked at the photos of the house. They were indeed beautiful, but he wondered if the pictures were just for reference. "I'm fine, so I can go over and take a look."
Ten minutes later, Mu'an Jiaxi stood in the house the young man had introduced, completely stunned. He stared at everything in disbelief. It was incredible. This was a beautiful environment, this was the best location. This was quiet. Yes, it was quiet, but compared to this, a little noise suddenly seemed to be a good thing.
Mu An Jiaxi turned around in disbelief and pointed at the cemetery downstairs outside the window. "You came to me because you can't sell this house? This is a room with a cemetery view, right?"
Can you imagine how you would feel when you are facing a house with beautiful decoration and layout, but when you open the window, the neighbor opposite is a cemetery.
I can’t imagine the scene of renting this house, opening the window early in the morning, facing the bright sunshine, holding a glass of milk, feeling good, and enjoying the beautiful scenery, then slowly lowering my head and facing a graveyard.
The busy young man walked over after hearing this and said, "It's okay. There are cemeteries like this around most houses now. If you're scared, just close the windows and it will be fine. Besides, it's quiet."
Mu'an Jiaxi nodded thoughtfully, "It's quiet during the day, but I can't say for sure at night. I don't want this house."
What's so good about this recommended house? I'd rather sleep on the street than next to a cemetery.
Then she walked out the door, and the young man ran out to chase her, "If you are not satisfied with this one, I have several other houses. You can take a look at the others."
Mu An Jiaxi refused without a second thought, "No need for that for now. I don't feel in a hurry to move anymore."
After parting with the young man, Mu An Jiaxi walked along the street to find a real estate agency. A man inside immediately greeted her warmly when he saw her and said, "Welcome, miss. Would you like to see a house? What kind of house do you want and at what price?"
"It should be a two-bedroom apartment, not too expensive, in a good environment, and most importantly, not near a cemetery."
"Okay miss, I happen to have a house on hand that meets your requirements. Do you want me to take you to see it?" said the agent after flipping through the information.
"I happen to be free now, let's go now."
Five minutes later, Mu'an Jiaxi arrived at the place the agent mentioned and went upstairs with him to look at the room. After looking around inside and out, he came out very satisfied and asked the price, "How much is it to rent per month?"
The real estate agent raised two fingers, and Mu Anjiaxi was surprised and said, "It's so cheap, there must be something wrong with this house, right? It can't be a haunted house!"
Hearing her increasingly irrelevant remarks, the real estate agent quickly explained, "The owner of this house has been working abroad for years and hasn't had the chance to come back, so he wants to rent it out cheaply so someone can take care of it. None of the things you're talking about exist."
"Then I'm relieved. If there's no problem, let's go through the formalities now." Suddenly thinking of something, Mu An Jiaxi asked again: "Are my neighbors noisy? What are they like?"
As the agent closed the door, he said, "Don't worry about this. The house to your left is empty and hasn't been rented out yet. The house to your right is occupied by an old lady. She's quiet and doesn't make any noise. You don't have to worry about any noise."
Mu'an Jiaxi felt relieved, and then went back to the company with the agent to complete the formalities.
When I was walking back, I found that the new community was only across the street from Mihua Apartment. It was just that I had just gone to the cemetery and walked around it, so I didn’t notice it.
After she left, a shadow quickly appeared and disappeared at the corner behind her. In the corner, Yuya Kazama was sending a text message on his mobile phone. Within a second of sending the message, he immediately deleted the record.
The author has something to say:
The real estate agent said: This house is quiet, not noisy, and the view is so beautiful.
Mu An Jia Xi: I am really tied up...
Thank you very much for your support. I will continue to work hard!
