This is the second time I have discussed the topic of “good and bad” with Xu Moshu.
Xu Moshu's laughter made Chu Chenan feel uneasy.
He hugged his legs tightly, trying to save the situation. "Well... you're not particularly bad, I just feel like you're the type of person who's neither good nor bad..."
Xu Moshu leaned over and was amused again by Chu Chenan's words that were intended to cover up the truth. His handsome face was close at hand, and the curve of the corners of his lips was obvious.
He was wearing a black suit, and his slender body stood in front of Chu Chenan.
Because they were close, the unique masculine smell of hormones filled Chu Chenan's nostrils.
Chu Chenan stepped back slightly, clutching his clothes tightly, and his palms began to sweat.
It was a very familiar, yet terrifying smell...
Zhang Liang and his companions just turned back from the stairs, and his voice broke the tense atmosphere, "We checked, the door to 501 is locked, I guess there's no one there..."
Zhang Liang saw the two people in front of him and was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing?"
...
...
Chu Chenan hurriedly pushed Xu Moshu gently, stood up, and walked quickly towards Zhang Liang and Li Yaya, "I didn't do anything. What did you just say?"
Zhang Liang looked at Chu Chenan hesitantly, a dark light flashed across his eyes, and he continued in a gentle voice, "No one should live in 502. There seems to be someone living in 501 opposite, but there is no blood at the door. Su Yu should be on the fourth floor."
Except for the 7th floor which has three suites, the rest of the floors have only two suites, and they are opposite each other.
"Okay, let's go." Chu Chenan nodded, folded his hands and walked quickly down the stairs. The surrounding area was still filled with the stench of the unknown dark brown liquid.
He tried hard to suppress his nausea and walked in front. He glanced back at the three people behind him, pinched his nose and snorted faintly, "Hurry up, it stinks."
His voice was soft, like a ball of cotton tickling Xu Moshu's chest.
They followed the winding blood trail to the corridor entrance on the fourth floor, where the light was brighter.
The faint sunlight shone on Chu Chenan's profile, adding a bit of warmth.
His long eyelashes cast a curved arc in the dim light, and his already handsome face was cast with a layer of light.
Like a pure spirit.
Xu Moshu was in a daze for a long time after watching this.
Every time you look at Chu Chenan, you will see the shadow of Chen An.
Chen An.
His Chen An.
His baby, his lover, the one he embraced and kissed countless nights with, the one he loved intimately with…
Countless thoughts and disappointments surged in his chest, and his eyes gradually grew cold.
Chu Chenan felt the burning and oppressive gaze above his head.
He raised his head and glanced at Xu Moshu behind him, and saw that Xu Moshu's eyes were dark and gloomy, staring at him quietly.
He was so scared that he withdrew his gaze and hurriedly walked to Zhang Liang's side, avoiding Xu Moshu's gaze.
What's wrong with being perverted...
He touched his cold neck and thought.
The four of them turned into the corridor on the fourth floor together. On the left side of the corridor was 401, and on the right side opposite was 402.
401 was locked and the door was covered with dust.
So, they can now exclude 401 and 502 which have been locked.
Choose between rooms 402 and 501.
The door of Room 402 was covered with large pools of solidified blood, and even the top of the door was splashed with a lot of it.
The bloodstains were so dark that they ran from the door all the way to the corridor.
“There’s not even any blood in the corridor on the 5th floor. Su Yu must be here.”
Li Yaya was trembling. She whispered with a little excitement: "Then have we found it...then...then we don't have to die?"
Zhang Liang didn't expect it to be so simple.
Chu Chenan looked at the door covered with black blood and stood there for a long time without moving.
The bloodstain spread all the way down the stairs and stopped right at the door of Room 402.
Suddenly, the tightly closed door 402 on the right side suddenly opened a tiny crack, and the room became dark.
An eye appeared in the crack of the door!
Chu Chenan trembled with fear. It was an eye as cold and creepy as stagnant water.
Hiding in the dark, watching them.
The cold eyes inside the door turned strangely, and the crack in the door widened a little, revealing the wrinkled and yellow face of the person inside.
Only part of it is seen clearly.
Based on the exposed part of the side face, Chu Chenan could tell that the person hiding inside was an elderly middle-aged woman.
Li Yaya was so scared that she covered her mouth, grabbed Zhang Liang's clothes and hid behind him.
The middle-aged woman stared at the four people outside the corridor with cold and fierce eyes, and curled the corners of her mouth mechanically.
She murmured, "Come in, come in quickly, I'm so hungry...eyeballs are delicious..."
After saying that, the door was suddenly closed tightly.
Chu Chenan leaned against the wall, he was also very scared.
Under Xu Moshu's gaze, he trotted back to the stairs.
Xu Moshu followed closely behind, and saw Chu Chenan sitting on the steps again, holding the railing on his side with his arms.
Too timid to be cute.
Zhang Liang dragged Li Yaya back to the stairs, his brows furrowed and hesitant.
The community broadcast sounded again.
[Good afternoon, new tenants. 】
[You have reached the fourth floor by now, it seems that your efficiency is pretty good. 】
[Well, now that everyone is here, let’s start the game. 】
The male landlord hummed a strange tune, then said with a smile:
[It is now 4:30 in the afternoon.] 】
[You will have half an hour to think about it and decide which door to knock on before five o'clock. 】
[Remember to make a quick decision and seize the time to choose...]
[Because your neighbors on the fourth and fifth floors have been hungry for a long time~]
【Hahaha……】
The broadcast was cut off in the midst of laughter, breaking down their mental defenses bit by bit.
Because death is near.
Their lives depended on a wild guess.
Li Yaya pulled Zhang Liang and wanted to walk towards the door of Room 402.
She was so frightened that her face turned pale, with two tears still hanging on her cheeks. "Let's... let's go and knock on the door. There's only half an hour left!"
Zhang Liang frowned, feeling anxious and worried. After hesitating for a long time, he raised his leg and wanted to walk towards the door of Room 402.
Chu Chenan stopped Zhang Liang’s arm and said, “Su Yu is not here.”
"She's upstairs." Chu Chenan said.
Zhang Liang turned around and looked at Chu Chenan with distrust, "Chenan, we have checked upstairs and can't find even a trace of blood."
Li Yaya said, "Yes, we saw it clearly."
Chu Chenan said: "What if this is what they deliberately wanted us to see?"
Zhang Liang and Li Yaya looked around hesitantly.
"How do you know she's upstairs?" Li Yaya looked at Chu Chenan nervously, not trusting him. "Chu Chenan, don't make random guesses. Do you really think you're playing a game? Ah, you're trying to trick us on purpose..."
"Believe it or not, Su Yu is upstairs anyway." Chu Chenan said softly, his voice was very pleasant, "If you guys want to rush over and have your eyes eaten, I can't do anything about it. I'll go upstairs and knock on the door."
The landlord's rules are simple.
Knocking on the door counts.
After saying that, he turned and walked up the stairs to the fifth floor.
Xu Moshu looked at Chu Chenan with interest, without saying a word.
Xu Moshu followed Chu Chenan silently, while Zhang Liang and Li Yaya were still there, hesitating.
Chu Chenan stopped again at the dark brown pool of unknown liquid.
He pinched his nose and raised his foot but was afraid to step down.
It’s really disgusting…
It smells like corpse fluids.
This pool of foul-smelling liquid was densely packed at the entrance of the corridor and was still spreading. It was impossible for Chu Chenan to cross it.
Chu Chenan pinched his nose and frowned.
He hesitated inwardly.
He hesitated between dying and stepping on it.
If you fail to complete the task, you will die.
But it's really disgusting.
You're a gamer! There is nothing to be afraid of with such difficulties!
But I really will vomit, um...
While Chu Chenan was hesitating, a luxurious black suit covered the pool of blood.
Chu Chenan was stunned.
The suit in front of me looks familiar...
oh.
This is the six-figure suit that Xu Moshu is wearing today.
He raised his eyes.
Xu Moshu had stood beside him without him noticing, and raised his chin leisurely, "Go ahead."
Chu Chenan was slightly stunned.
"Aren't you going to go over there?"
Xu Moshu lowered his eyes and looked at this noble and delicate kitten.
"Oh." Chu Chenan came back to his senses in a daze, put on his expensive suit and walked into the stairs.
Xu Moshu followed behind him.
When they stood in front of the door of 501, Zhang Liang and Li Yaya also followed.
It looks like there has been no knock on the door yet.
Li Yaya looked at the door of 501 nervously and said, "Chu Chenan, you'd better make the right choice, otherwise, all of us will die with you."
Chu Chenan was confused by what he heard.
If she was worried, why should she follow him? Couldn't she just make her own choice?
Chu Chenan shrugged.
He glanced at the three people behind him, raised his hand and knocked on the door of 501 three times.
There was a loud rustling sound from inside the door, and the hoarse and aged voice of the old man came from the door, "You came here so soon, you kid really have too much free time...why not just kill him directly..."
After the old man finished speaking, the door of Room 501 opened.
The old man was wearing an old Taoist robe, and his withered face was covered with dense gray and black spots and wrinkles. His eyes were deformed by the wrinkles, and he was hunched and thin, with a cold and unfriendly look in his eyes.
The old man in Taoist robe had sharp eyes. When he saw Xu Moshu, he began to smile kindly and gently, "Are you here to look for someone? Haha..."
The old man's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible, and when he smiled, he showed a row of yellow and black teeth.
Zhang Liang and the others were all worried and scared.
"You are quite smart. The person is indeed here with me." said the hunchbacked old man with a smile.
Chu Chenan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
The hunchbacked old man smiled in a very creepy way. He added, "But you have to come in and look for it yourself."
After he finished speaking, he left the door wide open, turned around and walked into his living room with his cane.
Various kinds of talismans are placed in the room, with a statue in the center and incense burning constantly.
The walls were covered with red ropes and peach wood swords, and even the light and shadows in the room were blood red...
The old man only said, "Take your time to look for it, if you can find it."
The deadline is to find Su Yu before five o'clock, otherwise they will die anyway.
Chu Chenan suspected that the old man was deliberately delaying time.
This house is quite large. In addition to the living room and balcony, there are three rooms.
The hunchbacked old man sat on the wooden sofa in the living room, looking back at Chu Chenan with a smile, his face looked wretched and creepy.
Chu Chenan followed Zhang Liang and the others to search these three rooms several times, but there was no sign of Su Yu.
There is no point in continuing to search like this.
So he quietly left the team and walked out of the room, turning to the bathroom on the right side of the living room.
Only there I haven't looked.
Chu Chenan tried his best to keep his head down and not look at the scary old man.
But as he passed the wooden sofa where the old man was sitting, the lights in the living room suddenly went out.
Everything in front of Chu Chenan's eyes was pitch black. He was so scared that his heart skipped a beat. He stopped and quickly stretched out his hand to grope in the dark.
"He doesn't know yet that you're back?"
The old man had come to his side without him knowing when, and spoke in a low hoarse voice into Chu Chenan's ear.
Chu Chenan trembled and stopped moving his hands.
The old man chuckled in surprise, "Hehe..."
