“Boom!”
There was suddenly thunder outside the window and a flash of lightning streaked across the sky.
Chi Mu walked to the bedside and found that soybean-sized raindrops were falling from the sky and people on the street were fleeing in a hurry to take shelter from the rain.
It was only noon, but the weather had already turned so gloomy.
"It seems that Yang Qu is coming back early. We must hurry up and find Ah Jiu to see this figure."
Chi Mu said to himself, took a few candies, left the room, and walked towards the storage room.
Ajiu said that she lives in the storage room now.
After the system's prompt, Chi Mu learned that Rule 4 of the sequence was wrong, so he would not violate the rules if he entered the storage room.
Just when Chi Mu walked to the door of the storage room, he suddenly felt a chill on his back and couldn't help but shiver.
He was even more suspicious that the source of the contamination was in this storage room. If he rushed in now, would he also be contaminated?
After thinking about it, Chi Mu decided not to enter the storage room before confirming that it was the source of pollution. He chose the safe way and knocked on the door.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom!"
Chi Mu knocked on the door three times in a row. The door of the storage room opened a crack, and a pair of eyes appeared at the door.
"Who are you looking for?"
A deep male voice came from the crack in the door.
Chi Mu was stunned. It turned out that it wasn't Ajiu who opened the door? Was Ajiu not here?
Rule 5 of Sequence Three mentioned that the storage room is where cleaners store cleaning supplies. There are two cleaners on the ninth floor, one male and one female.
But it also said that the male cleaner had asked for leave, and now the only cleaner was the female cleaner, so who was the person in the storage room? !
Chi Mu subconsciously took a step back and said, "I'm looking for a little girl named Jiu. Isn't she here?"
The person in the storage room was silent for a few seconds, then opened the door. Chi Mu then discovered that there was a middle-aged man in the storage room. He was thin, had dark circles under his eyes, and looked like he had been contaminated.
"I'm a cleaner at the hotel. The storage room is where cleaners keep their tools. There are no little girls there... Guests are not allowed to enter the storage room."
The man said to Chi Mu in a low voice.
"Oh, okay, okay, sorry to bother you."
Chi Mu nodded, turned around and left.
The middle-aged man looked at Chi Mu's back, a thoughtful expression on his face, and his fists clenched a little.
After walking more than ten steps, Chi Mu looked back at the storage room and found that the man had closed the door.
Chi Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
Just when the man said he was a cleaner, Chi Mu became extremely alert.
Because Rule 6 of Sequence Three says that cleaners are women!
So the man just now was lying!
Of the two cleaners on the ninth floor, only one is a female cleaner. The male cleaner had gone home long ago, and the rules specifically state that cleaners must be female. The male cleaner is a very good person!
Chi Mu listed him as a suspect.
Just when Chi Mu was worrying about where to find Ajiu, the corner of his clothes was tugged.
"Big brother, are you looking for Jiu?"
Ajiu was still wearing the red dress and looked up at Chi Mu with an innocent face.
Chi Mu was stunned. When did Ajiu appear beside him?
"Yes, Jiu, I went to the storage room to look for you just now, but I couldn't find you...Brother wants you to help me look for something, can you help me?"
Chi Mu squatted down and smiled at Ajiu.
Ajiu pouted and said, "If there is candy, Ajiu will help big brother!"
Chi Mu took out a handful of candy from his pocket and handed it to Jiu. Jiu happily took the candy and said happily: "Thank you, big brother! Big brother, what do you want Jiu to see?"
Chi Mu took Ajiu's hand and returned to his and Yang Qu's room, pushing open the bedroom door where the figure had just been seen.
The strange thing was that as soon as Ajiu entered the bedroom, her hands became a little cold, so cold that it was not normal, which made Chi Mu couldn't help but let go of Ajiu's hands.
Chi Mu lifted up a little of the clothes hanging on the wall and said to Ajiu, "Ajiu, come over and take a look. Do you recognize the figure on the wall?"
The moment Jiu saw the figure on the wall, his pupils dilated and a look of fear appeared on his face.
“Ahhh…Yes, it’s uncle, it’s that uncle!”
"Mom, run! Mom, run!"
Ajiu shouted in fear, tears streaming down his eyes.
Seeing this, Chi Mu hurriedly covered the figure and held Ajiu's hand. Even though his hands were icy cold, Chi Mu still did not let go of her hand.
"Don't cry, Jiu... It's just a figure, your brother is here!"
Chi Mu comforted Ajiu softly and stroked her back with his hand, and Ajiu soon calmed down.
After seeing that Ajiu was no longer as excited as before, Chi Mu said, "Ajiu, why did you call the figure on the wall uncle? And why did you ask mom to run away......"
Ajiu lowered his head and said nothing. Chi Mu wanted to speak again, but quickly realized that if he spoke now, it would be tantamount to violating the rules, so he took the initiative to talk to "her".
Therefore, we can only wait for Jiu to speak himself.
Unexpectedly, Chi Mu felt a cold and sticky liquid on his hand. He looked down and was horrified to find that his hand was covered with blood, all of which had dripped from Ajiu's face.
Chi Mu was so scared that he sat down on the ground and backed away repeatedly.
Jiu raised his head, and what flowed from his eyes were no longer tears, but tears of blood of horror!
"Big brother... Big brother, don't be afraid, Jiu won't hurt you... The figure on the wall is that fat uncle..."
"My mother was hit on the head with a shovel by an uncle in white clothes...Ajiu, Ajiu was also knocked unconscious."
"Ajiu, it hurts. Ajiu, it hurts so much!"
As Jiu said this, he suddenly ran out of the room.
Blood and tears were all over the floor. When Chi Mu recovered and chased out, he found that the corridor was empty and he didn't know where Ah Jiu had run to.
Suddenly, Chi Mu felt a chill on his neck, and there was clearly a hand on his shoulder...
