"The construction of the community was stopped halfway through, and the lines were not completed. It is impossible to supply electricity. What is the source of the light in the building?"

Four buildings stand in the center of the community. The light faintly shining through the buildings is like a pair of slightly open eyes, staring at the living people approaching with ill intent.

"Chen Ge, don't be too far away from us, stay alert at all times!" Li Zheng turned around and shouted when he saw that Chen Ge didn't come over.

"I understand." Chen Ge knew that Li Zheng was worried about him, so he walked quickly to his side and said, "I just think it's a bit strange. There's no electricity in the building, so why are there lights in some rooms?"

"There are many reasons. It could be the moonlight reflecting from the windows, or the homeless people treating the building as their home. Whatever the reason, you must be careful when entering a building that has been idle for many years." Li Zheng seemed to have some bad memories: "Abandoned warehouses, factories, and buildings in the suburbs can easily become places for criminals to hide. There are also some crazy people who are keen on trying various mysterious rituals. The more desolate the place, the more they like it. In a case I was in charge of before, the murderer stole corpses from the hospital and fantasized about summoning mythical ghosts. In the end, we captured him in a smelly sewer in the suburbs."

"Summoning ghosts in the sewers? Did he consider the ghosts' feelings when doing this?"

Chen Ge's answer made Li Zheng, who was about to say something, suddenly at a loss for words: "Your way of thinking is really hard to understand sometimes. Forget it, I won't talk too much with you. Just know that this is very dangerous."

Mingyang Community is very large, with four unfinished buildings standing before our eyes, like four tombstones filled with names.

The night wind blew, the grass and trees swayed, and the branches and leaves rustled. Standing downstairs and looking up, people would have a very uncomfortable feeling, as if these four buildings would collapse at any time and bury everything in the community.

"How about we go to where the light is coming from?" Li Zheng suggested, "The closest light to us is on the left corner of the second floor of Building 1. If it's on the way, I suggest we go and see what the light is."

"By the way, Room 104 is on the 10th floor. Before going upstairs, we can check all the rooms along the way. Maybe we can find some useful clues." Tian Lei is very familiar with Mingyang Community. He used to be in charge of the affairs of the community owners.

"Room 104 is on the tenth floor? How did they arrange the room numbers?"

"The first two digits are the floors, and the third digit is the room number on the same floor. 104 represents the fourth room on the tenth floor." Tian Lei explained to Chen Ge.

"But there are four buildings here. Does that mean there are four Room 104s?"

"The four rooms on the tenth floor of Building 1 are numbered one to four, and the four rooms on the tenth floor of Building 2 are numbered five to eight, so the situation you are describing does not exist."

"The room numbers in different buildings are all connected?" Chen Ge was just curious, but what Tian Lei said gave him some ideas: "Why did the designer of the community design it this way?"

"It is said that it was the request of the investors. They were planning to build a corridor bridge in the sky to connect the four buildings into a whole and make Mingyang Community a landmark building in Jiujiang. Unfortunately, several investors had accidents before the construction was completed."

"Keep your noises down and get ready to go into the building." Captain Yan was the first to enter the dark corridor, holding a police flashlight.

"Build the four buildings into a whole?" Chen Ge kept this sentence in mind. The deaths of those investors were unclear, and there must be some hidden story behind the whole thing.

After entering the corridor, I could clearly feel that the temperature had dropped a lot. There was a chill in the air, and every time I breathed it felt like someone was blowing a breath of cool air on my heart.

There are many rivers passing through the eastern suburbs of Jiujiang. This place is relatively humid compared to other places in Jiujiang. Moss and mildew grow in the corners of the walls, and the wall skin is wrinkled. A large piece can be easily torn off by running your fingers across it.

"The light we see outside comes from this room." Several people came to the left corner of the second floor and looked at one of the rooms.

"Li Zheng, go in and take a look. Tian Lei, please be on the lookout for them."

"good."

"receive."

The three policemen did not carry guns or batons, so they appeared to be very cautious.

Li Zheng entered the house holding a flashlight in one hand. There were some strange patterns painted on the walls and all kinds of garbage thrown on the ground. The presence of these things indicated that someone had lived in this room for a long time.

"Bang!" A slight sound was heard in the bedroom and a wine bottle was knocked over.

"Come out! I am Li Zheng, the leader of the Criminal Investigation Team 1 of the Municipal Branch! Please come out of the room immediately and cooperate with the investigation!" Li Zheng shone the flashlight towards the room. After a long time, a ragged homeless man walked out.

He looked to be about sixty years old, with his hair and beard growing together. He was wearing a tattered sweater inside and a coat with holes all over it outside.

Even dressed like this, he still seemed to feel cold, wearing a tattered hat and a pair of fingerless gloves.

"Name, age, and why are you here?" Perhaps it was Li Zheng's uniform that played a role, the homeless man did not resist and behaved very honestly.

"My last name is Zheng, I don't remember my first name, and I'm the seventh child in my family." The homeless man spoke very slowly, perhaps because he rarely talked to people. "I just want to find a place to shelter from the rain. This building is empty anyway. If you don't let me live here, I'll leave immediately."

"Li Zheng, put down the flashlight." Captain Yan walked into the room and stared at the man for a long time: "It's so hot, you're wearing so many clothes, are you uncomfortable?"

"I'm not uncomfortable, I'm just cold." Judging from the homeless man's answer just now, he has clear thinking and should not have any mental problems, but what he wears is much thicker than a normal person, as if winter had already arrived several months in advance.

"Cold?" Team Leader Yan glanced at the bedroom where the homeless man came out of. "Stand against the wall. We won't hurt you. But for safety reasons, I advise you not to live here alone. Jiujiang has a special rescue station. You can go there for help if you have any difficulties."

After Captain Yan finished speaking, he took a step forward and the homeless man suddenly became nervous.

"Are you scared?" Captain Yan shifted his gaze away from the homeless man's face and suddenly accelerated into the bedroom next door.

"Don't go in!" It was too late for the homeless man to stop them. Li Zheng and Tian Lei stopped him: "Don't go in! You will die!"

"Be quiet!"

The homeless man yelled and screamed, his face full of fear, but he was unable to stop Captain Yan and Chen Ge.

The bedroom was not big and emitted a bad smell. There were some broken doll toys piled in the middle of the room.

"I didn't kill them. I just saw it accidentally. I have never killed anyone." The homeless man seemed to have gone crazy suddenly and began to struggle desperately: "I didn't kill anyone! It wasn't me!"

"These are all doll toys. Of course we know you didn't kill anyone. Just be honest." Tian Lei pressed the homeless man against the wall. When he turned his head to look at the pile of broken dolls, he also took a breath of cold air.
