Chapter 720 Night Exploration 601
At seven o'clock in the evening, two people and three pets were kicked out of the space.
Annan glanced at the watch on Gu Zhiyu's hand: "Exactly twelve hours."
She was both happy and disappointed.
Fortunately, the space was upgraded in fifteen minutes. An effect that could only be achieved with a dozen pieces of high-quality jadeite was easily achieved with this jade plate.
What was disappointing was that she had previously fantasized whether this time could eventually be upgraded to 24 hours. In this way, she could live in space forever.
They no longer have to face natural disasters or ferocious beasts of the eternal night.
But now it is clear that the expectations have been dashed.
The bracelet has turned into a glass-type imperial green, which is the highest quality jadeite. This space should have been upgraded to its final form.
It seems that she has to live in the real world after all.
Gu Zhiyu, who was standing by, seemed to notice her disappointment, stretched out his slender fingers, and tapped her forehead:
“Be content with what you have.”
Annan covered his head and smiled embarrassedly.
Yes! Greed is insatiable. She is already very lucky and should know how to be content.
Twelve hours of hiding time, a hundred-meter flash, a magical spring, a comfortable manor, a vast storage space, and unlimited water and electricity. This is already very good.
After figuring it out, Annan took out some red wine from the space:
"Come on, let's celebrate the space reaching full level."
At least you don't have to bother looking for jade to upgrade your space anymore.
The two of them drank some wine in a very romantic mood, then locked the three kids into the room and went back to the master bedroom to be alone for a while.
It was not until midnight when the time limit of the space was refreshed that Annan put his clothes in order:
"Let's go upstairs and see what's going on at Xiao Tang's house."
She was so exhausted that she was too lazy to go out and climb the stairs.
Anyway, just take a quick look, and if you happen to bump into Xiao Tang, just dodge back immediately, and she will just think she is dazzled.
They did what they said. They closed their eyes and appeared in Room 601.
The layout of the upstairs and downstairs is the same. Annan deliberately chose to appear at the entrance instead of going directly to the bedroom to avoid meeting people face to face.
The room was completely dark, with only a faint candlelight in the corner of the kitchen and... a strong figure.
The figure was extremely tall, about 1.80 meters, and it was impossible for it to be Tang Qiyun.
is a man.
Annan narrowed his eyes slightly and took two steps forward.
Gu Zhiyu grabbed her, shook his head at her, then pulled her behind him, signaling her to stay calm.
Annan nodded, and stood there with Gu Zhiyu, hidden in the darkness, staring at each other to see what he was going to do.
I saw the man holding a candle and rummaging through the kitchen cabinets, searching every corner carefully.
Then he let out a long sigh, stood there in a daze for a few seconds, then turned around and walked towards the living room with the candle.
He had only taken a few steps when the figures of Annan and Gu Zhiyu came into his sight. Their expressionless faces looked particularly eerie in the light of the candles.
“Aaaaaa——”
The man screamed heartbreakingly.
"Ghost! Ghost!!!"
Annan and Gu Zhiyu twitched their lips at the same time.
It has been four years since the apocalypse. Among the survivors who have suffered all kinds of crimes, is there anyone who is still afraid of ghosts?
It's no wonder that people were scared. Annan and Gu Zhiyu happened to be wearing black and white at the moment. They appeared suddenly and silently. Under the flickering firelight, they really looked a bit like the Black and White Impermanence.
The man screamed for a long time before he finally saw Annan and Gu Zhiyu's faces clearly and calmed down:
"Yes, it's you?"
It was the bearded neighbor in Room 602.
Annan hadn't expected it to be him. After looking him over, he asked, "What are you shouting about in the middle of the night?"
The man patted his chest and said, "How can I not shout? You are scaring people to death! How can you stand behind someone silently like you do?"
Annan ignored him and asked, "What are you doing in someone else's house in the middle of the night?"
The man was somewhat speechless: "What else can I do? I saw someone was dead, so I came to pick up equipment!"
He had never thought about it in this way before.
After all, everyone in this building is quite powerful, and everyone has tacitly agreed not to use their brains against each other. If they want to steal things, they have to go somewhere else.
After the two workers knocked on the door twice, he did not act rashly. It was not until no one responded for three consecutive days that he was sure that the occupant of the house was dead.
I decided to go in in the dark to see if there were any supplies left.
Who knew that someone would share the same idea with him?
He did not feel guilty at all, and confidently said to Annan and Gu Zhiyu:
"Aren't you guys also running into someone else's house? We are all in the same boat!"
"You two don't need to waste your energy. I have searched every room and found nothing. This kitchen was the last room I checked and it was also empty."
Then he cursed, "Damn it! Not only do we have no supplies, we didn't even see a corpse."
He originally thought that at the very least he could have dog meat to eat.
Although I don't know how long the dog has been dead, in such a cold day, a house with no living people is like a natural refrigerator, and the dog's meat will not rot no matter how long it has been dead.
Unfortunately, there were no supplies or bodies. The house was spotless, not even a hair!
He waved his hand dejectedly: "Let's go, let's go back!"
Annan and the other man stood there without moving, ready to watch him leave.
Seeing that they didn't move, the man rolled his eyes at them and said, "Why, you don't believe me? We are all in the same boat, how can I deceive you?"
Who is your kindred spirit?
Annan looked at him and said expressionlessly, "This is my sister's home."
The implication is that we are a family and are here to stay, so you should leave as soon as possible.
Who would have thought that after a moment of silence, the man actually sighed and said, "Your sister must have been beaten a lot!"
Annan: ...
The man said seriously: "Really! I could always hear the sound of banging against the wall and screaming. Her husband is a bad person and even abuses pregnant women."
"I don't see any dead bodies in this house. Maybe your sister couldn't stand the domestic violence and ran away with the children..."
Annan impatiently took out his pistol, pointed it at him and said, "Why don't you leave?"
The man stiffened for a moment.
"goodbye!"
Then he ran away in a flash.
After making sure he had left, Annan closed the door, took out a powerful flashlight from the space, and carefully checked the room with Gu Zhiyu.
The room was indeed very clean, with nothing in it.
Judging from the situation, the people must have moved away for a long time.
Annan frowned: "She is so timid, where would she go?"
