"Sister Ji Yu, should we start investigating from the sixth floor? People died there, so the evil spirit must be hiding there as well."
Ji Yu returned the file to Shen Baizhou: "Don't bother with that. Just ask everyone who's still in the building one by one."
Shen Baizhou saw Ji Yu's intention and asked with some concern, "Are you sure it's okay to count so many people at once?"
Lao Wu has a good talent for fortune-telling, but he dare not tell fortunes too many times a day. In mild cases, it may damage his spirit, and in severe cases, it may even affect his lifespan.
But Ji Yu didn't seem worried at all.
"No problem."
"Let's go over there."
They first arrived at 201. A man opened the door and said impatiently, "Who is this? Don't you see what time it is?"
The man opened the door and saw the landlady standing there, and was stunned.
"Landlady, please don't tell me that someone else has fallen down in the building."
The landlady waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, these are police officers, coming over to ask about the situation."
"Police? The police are not sleeping at night. Besides, it has nothing to do with me if someone falls and dies. I don't even know those people who died."
"The one who fell to death was a child?" Ji Yu suddenly asked.
The man scratched the back of his head and yawned. "Yeah, a few kids died. Otherwise, my wife and I wouldn't dare live here anymore. We just sent the kids away."
"But I plan to send my wife out in a few days as well."
"Why?" Yu Wu asked.
The man's face was bitter. "Why else could it be? It's because last time, it seemed like that single mother on the fourth floor almost fell from the sixth floor. Luckily, a resident on the sixth floor who rushed back at night saw her and rescued her."
"It's starting to get bad. A woman might fall down. I have to get my wife and kids away. If I didn't work nearby, I would have left long ago. Do you have any other questions? Even if not, I have to go to bed early. I have to get up at five."
"No, thank you."
There was a otaku on the third floor, and he had no intention of going to sleep at this hour. Ji Yu was about to go over when he was stopped by Shen Baizhou.
"I'll go over this, Miss Ji. You're a famous person now, and young people like this will definitely recognize you."
"Yes, Sister Ji Yu, the captain and I can do this."
Ji Yu was still completely unaware that he had become famous. He realized it belatedly, said "Oh" in a daze, and walked silently towards the fourth floor.
"401 isn't home, 402 is gone, and 403 is a single mother."
The moment she stepped onto the fourth floor, Ji Yu paused for a moment. She closed her eyes and smelled a faint scent of blood in the air.
Very faint, must have been there for a while.
Ji Yu knocked on the door of Room 403. After a while, the door was opened and a woman with straight hair looked at Ji Yu cautiously.
"You, you are?"
"police."
Ji Yu showed his ID: "Is it convenient to come in?"
"I'm sorry, I have a child at home, so it might not be convenient."
"It's okay, we can chat outside."
Ji Yu took a step back and the other party closed the door and came out.
"Officer, are you asking about the person who fell before? I'm not familiar with those kids, so I don't know."
"No, I'm asking about that family."
The single mother bit her lower lip and began to twirl her hands in front of her, becoming visibly nervous.
"I, I'm not familiar with it."
"Ah, I'm not familiar with her. It seems this young lady is quite quiet."
The single mother forced a smile on her face.
Ji Yu nodded and finally went to the fifth floor. He saw two sleeping children. The two old people laughed and said, "Officer, my children are quite naughty. They played crazy outside today, so they slept very soundly."
"It's better for the children to get more sleep. They're disturbing the elderly."
Ji Yu quickly counted several households, sorted out the fragmentary information, and then sighed.
This made Yang the landlord feel nervous: "Anchor, is this difficult to solve?"
Shen Baizhou leaned against the railing, his tone lazy, "That fat geek on the third floor didn't have much useful information, but before we left, he complained about the noisy drunks in Room 401. Now that they're gone, it's a lot quieter."
"Noisy?" Landlady Yang: "Ah, that one."
"Which one?"
"It's not a big deal. That drunkard likes to beat children when he's drunk. The situation is a bit complicated. It seems like a reconstituted family. The mother married the resident of 401 with the child."
Yu Wu was just about to criticize, how could this not be a big deal, but at this moment the compass needle in his hand spun wildly and stopped in the correct direction.
She immediately looked up and saw a woman standing by the railing on the sixth floor.
This frightened Yang the landlord so much that she yelled at the top of her lungs downstairs: "Oh my God! Step back! Don't stand there!"
"I'm really impressed. You're not going to make a mistake now, are you? You're going to jump off the building because you're so depressed."
Landlady Yang has a loud voice, which directly attracts the residents in the building.
"This seems to be the one on the fourth floor?"
The couple on the second floor ran down and saw the single mother on the sixth floor climbing up the railing. The woman pushed her husband and said, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pull her back."
The man reacted and was about to go upstairs when he felt a strong wind blowing past his ears. The next second, he felt pain in his shoulder and knelt down on one knee.
What's going on?
He looked up in confusion, only to see a figure catch his shoulders and jump directly to the second floor, then the third floor, the fourth floor... the sixth floor, with movements as neat and agile as a monkey.
"Is there anyone in our building who works in the circus?"
"What are you talking about? Can't you see that's Sister Ji Yu?"
The fat guy on the third floor who witnessed the whole process yelled at the people downstairs in displeasure.
Then, he took out his cell phone, leaned back, took out his cell phone and pointed it towards the sixth floor to prepare to shoot a video.
As soon as Ji Yu came up, the single mother took a step forward, and her lifeless eyes instantly became clear again.
Feeling her body weightless, before she could call for help, someone grabbed her right arm tightly.
Yu Wu, who was standing downstairs, noticed something was wrong with the single mother.
"Captain, look, is that ghost clinging to that lady's legs? Do you want to go up and help Sister Ji Yu?"
The single mother's entire body was hanging straight down, without any movement, as if she was carrying something very heavy.
The veins on Ji Yu's fair right wrist were bulging, showing that he had used a lot of strength.
"Save me, save me."
The single mother looked at Ji Yu pleadingly: "I don't want to die. I still have two children to raise."
"There are many ways to raise two children. Is it really necessary to be a mistress?"
Ji Yu's eyes showed neither sadness nor joy. The moment he looked down, it was unclear whether he was looking at the woman or the tender but hateful eyes on the woman's legs.
