Chapter 320 The Guest
When I woke up the next day, I found that many people had left the family group chat for apartment 444.
Clearly, these residents didn't leave the group chat; they simply died last night.
That's the cruelty of dungeons.
Jiang Liyue didn't even express a hint of emotion before simply putting her phone aside.
After having a cloying breakfast with Yan Mobai, she decided to go upstairs again to test the waters.
However, to his surprise, he encountered Liu Xi, who was also opening her door, as soon as she opened it.
"Good morning, Sister Xi." Jiang Liyue greeted her sweetly, looking full of energy.
Liu Xi glanced furtively at the imposing man beside her, ignoring his gaze that seemed to be telling her to "get lost," and stiffly greeted Jiang Liyue: "Good morning, Yueyue."
"Sister Xi, are you going out today?" Jiang Liyue squeezed Yan Mobai's hand to make him behave before naturally chatting with Liu Xi.
Liu Xi nodded: "Didn't you say last night that Xiao Wan is still in the apartment? It's been more than two years since I last saw her. I'm planning to go visit her."
Although they both transformed from humans into monsters, they are still living in another way, so of course they should catch up properly.
"What a coincidence!" Jiang Liyue exclaimed with delight. "I was also planning to visit Sister Peng Wan. Shall we go together?"
Liu Xi readily agreed: "Of course."
It would be even better if some terrifying being could avoid going.
Liu Xi silently grumbled to herself.
Unfortunately, Yan Mobai couldn't hear Liu Xi's prayers, and even if he did, he wouldn't agree; he would only want to strangle this delusional good-for-nothing.
As Jiang Liyue's little accessory, he would never be separated from her.
So the three of them went upstairs together.
But when Jiang Liyue reached the nineteenth floor, she was completely stunned.
The scene here is completely different from that at night. The corridor is no longer as clean and cozy as it was last night; the walls are covered with a thick layer of dust.
Both sides also have bloodstains that look like they've been dried for years, and a huge, crooked "death" character smeared with an unknown liquid.
The air was thick with the stench of decay and blood.
Liu Xi looked at Jiang Liyue with difficulty: "Yueyue, Xiao Wan lives in a place like this?"
Jiang Liyue: ...No, this wasn't my look last night either.
Does day and night automatically change?
Without hesitation, she said, "Let's go in and take a look."
The three arrived at room 1908, where Peng Wan had stayed the previous night. The door no longer felt as warm and inviting as it had the night before.
It was open and in a dilapidated state, with nothing tidied up inside, and bloodstains splattered on the floor and walls.
Looking at these bloodstains, one can almost imagine how horrific the murder scene must have been two years ago.
No, don't even imagine it, because in the center of the bloodstains lies a mangled corpse.
The body's chest was cut open with a blunt instrument, revealing it to be empty; its internal organs were missing, and its limbs had been severed with a blunt instrument and carelessly discarded to the side.
Blood was everywhere, on the corpse's face, underneath it, and on the walls.
This is the body of a woman who must have suffered greatly in life.
It was exactly the same scene that Zhu Shan described before Peng Wan's death. Seeing it with your own eyes is even more shocking than hearing it described.
Even after seeing countless bizarre creatures and corpses in so many dungeons, Jiang Liyue could still feel the pain of this corpse upon seeing its death.
Liu Xi exclaimed in surprise, "Xiao Wan!"
"Why?"
She wanted to ask why Peng Wan's body was lying here like this, and why, two years later, this place still looked like a real crime scene.
Unfortunately, Jiang Liyue didn't understand this aspect either.
She turned to look at Yan Mobai, who was still intently watching her and completely oblivious to the outside world: "Husband?"
Yan Mobai knew what she wanted to ask. He glanced at the current situation in the room and scoffed, "Just a stupid smokescreen."
Jiang Liyue: "? Speak properly."
Yan Mobai obediently said "Oh": "It's fake. Yueyue, do you want to see what this place really looks like?"
He actually discovered it as soon as he reached the nineteenth floor, but he didn't say anything because he wanted Jiang Liyue's experience to be more complete.
Before Jiang Liyue could answer whether she wanted to or not, footsteps sounded behind her.
They turned around and saw a tall, thin boy wearing a mask standing at the door.
Jiang Liyue recognized him; this was the person she had met in the elevator yesterday.
The boy seemed stunned by the scene in the room, his expression somewhat dazed. He didn't seem to care about the three people who had appeared, and only asked in a hoarse voice, "What are you doing here?"
"Xiao Yi." Liu Xi looked at him with some surprise. "Xiao Yi, what are you doing at the apartment? Do you remember me?"
“I remember, Sister Xi.” Peng Yi’s eyes flickered as he looked at Liu Xi. She was someone he knew in his previous life, and it was as if he had returned to the scene of living happily with his sister in his previous life.
But the next moment, Peng Yi's expression turned expressionless again: "No matter why you're here, get out of here..."
Yan Mobai's face darkened instantly. It was only because Peng Yi was so distracted by the scene in the room that he hadn't noticed the danger approaching.
But at this moment, he felt as if he had returned to that most helpless moment.
Jiang Liyue realized that Yan Mobai was about to go crazy again, so she quickly pulled him back and told him to stop talking.
Her condition for agreeing to let him follow was that he couldn't interfere with her, so Yan Mobai had no choice but to... endure it.
Not only do you have to be patient, you also have to temporarily hide your presence.
"Hey, how can this student be so rude? We're neighbors, how can you just tell your neighbor to leave?"
Upon hearing Jiang Liyue's words, Peng Yi finally realized that she was the noisy person he had encountered in the elevator yesterday, and his face instantly darkened.
Jiang Liyue pretended not to see and continued, "Besides, we were invited by Sister Peng Wan last night. Even if you are her brother, you can't kick us out, can you?"
Peng Yi was stunned: "You said my sister invited you here?"
"impossible……"
No sooner had she finished speaking than a gentle female voice came from behind Jiang Liyue and the others: "Xiao Yi, it was indeed me who invited you."
The blood-covered corpse stood up.
