Chapter 401 The resentment downstairs
"We just had a little quarrel when we lived here before, but he didn't let us go even after his death! Now, who lives in a residential building? There is always some noise upstairs and downstairs. The children at home like to run and jump. Who can control them?"
The speaker is the hostess of this household. They have two children at home, both of whom are three or four years old and can run the most. She still feels wronged when she talks about this.
"He has come to our house several times before and even complained to the property management company. I didn't bother with him. I told him that if he couldn't stand the noise, he could move to a villa, and there would be no more noise."
The hostess spoke in a low voice, as if she was afraid of being heard by something. In fact, when she spoke these words to the other party before, her attitude was much more righteous than it is now.
Although she still doesn't think there is anything wrong with her child, she still can't help feeling guilty after all, the person is dead. While
the hostess was talking, Jiang Xuxu only glanced at the living room. There were a lot of toys piled in the corner of the living room, checkers, mahjong, small cars, and... small basketballs scattered on the ground.
She glanced at the somewhat clean basketball and suddenly asked,
"Does your child play basketball at home?"
The hostess was puzzled, "Where else can they play if not at home? There are so many older children on the basketball court, and the younger children can't squeeze in and are easily bumped into."
Tu Xingzhu couldn't help but say, "There are always other open spaces in the community to play."
The hostess said righteously, "Those places are so dirty with people coming and going. If you play for a long time, you will get bacteria and bring the bacteria home. It's better to play at home, it's clean."
Tu Xingzhu: ...
He seemed to know why the ghost hated this family.
Playing basketball at home, plus running and jumping, the noise is not ordinary.
Maybe Tu Xingzhu's eyes were too obvious, and the hostess was a little unconvinced.
"My child doesn't play ball at home every day. He is a child and he only plays ball for two hours at most. I have told the people downstairs that the noises in the middle of the night are not coming from my house!
It's the family upstairs. The little girl likes to dance at home. She was still jumping up and down in the middle of the night and jumping rope at 10:30 in the middle of the night."
Jiang Xuxu looked at the task content again after hearing this. She was actually wondering why the two families upstairs were not the two families next to each other, but the two families above and below.
They are now in 1903. The one who died is the resident of 1803, and the other one who was harassed is 2003.
"Can the noise from the next floor also disturb you?"
Tu Xingzhu couldn't help shaking his head when he heard Jiang Xuxu's question, and immediately explained,
"Now the floors of these buildings are thin, not only can the noise from the upper floors be heard, but also the noise from the next floor and even the next door can be heard clearly."
He didn't forget to sigh, "You can tell from this that you have never lived in a building, and you have never experienced the time when you were disturbed by the noise from the
upper floor and became nervous." The hostess heard his disdain for the upper floor and couldn't help but glance at him. He became
nervous at the slightest noise, how hypocritical.
Jiang Xuxu also glanced at him. Although she lived in a villa whether in the Guan family or the Jiang family, she had lived in a building in the community.
But she was not bothered by the noise upstairs and suffered from nervous breakdown.
She had her own silence notes.
While isolating the noise upstairs, she also isolated the noise in her home, ensuring that she would not disturb others and would not be disturbed by others.
But this was not the focus of today.
They decided to go to the upstairs house to take a look.
There was a couple living in the upstairs house. When they went there, the boy was packing his luggage, obviously preparing to move.
Knowing that they were here to handle the matter, the girl almost cried,
"I'm so wronged. I live on the 20th floor, which is one floor away from the 18th floor. Even if I did aerobics, it would not have disturbed him. It was all the fault of that family downstairs. They insisted that it was my family that made the noise, and I was targeted as well. My boyfriend and I haven't slept well this week. It's really killing me..."
The boyfriend had been packing his luggage silently, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but raise his voice to her,
"I told you to choose a normal time for aerobics. It's always after eleven o'clock in the middle of the night. If someone hadn't held a grudge against you, would we have to move in such a hurry?"
The lease on the house had not expired, and the deposit could not be refunded. Not only was it more expensive to find a new house, but they also had to pay an agency fee and a deposit. Their losses this time were not small.
The girl couldn't stand being yelled at suddenly,
"You are blaming me now?! Didn't you push that guy when he came to your house? Maybe he was so angry because of you!"
"I did that for you!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Bai Shu suddenly shrank back nervously, but Jiang Xuxu and Tu Xingzhu were very calm.
Jiang Xuxu mainly wanted to wait until they finished quarreling before talking about business.
Tu Xingzhu was because... he was usually too lazy to make peace if he didn't get paid.
The couple quarreled for a while, and seeing that the three of them were sitting on the sofa watching the show and didn't intend to stop the quarrel, they stopped quarreling for a moment. The girl wiped her tears and sat aside without saying anything.
The boy explained the recent disturbance in detail.
He knew Jiang Xuxu and her abilities.
When he realized it was a haunting a few days ago, he sent a message to the program team for help, but of course, it fell on deaf ears.
He didn't expect anything at first. He
didn't expect Jiang Xuxu to come to his house on her own initiative.
This is why he and the family downstairs didn't doubt the identities of the three of them.
"At first we didn't know it was haunted. It was when we were sleeping at night, there were always noises of things falling on the floor in the house. Not only did it wake us up, but also the people downstairs. They came downstairs to look for us and said that their children had been frightened.
At that time, we didn't take it seriously. Later, we started to hear noises upstairs, the kind of noises of skipping ropes. And... the noises of aerobics. It was late at night and it was especially clear. We went to look for it upstairs, but... there was no one living upstairs!
After that, I would dream that I was sleeping in a small room, and above my head there was the kind of bang bang bang noise of the floor shaking. It lasted for almost a week."
The reason why he was sure that it was the ghost of the boy who died suddenly downstairs was because the night before, he and his girlfriend were woken up in their dreams and saw a dark shadow standing at the end of the bed, and the sound made by the dark shadow was that of the boy.
He asked them,
"Why don't you continue to sleep? Did
n't you say you wouldn't make any noise? The sound you heard is the same sound I hear every day. Don't you think this noise is normal? Don't you say I can't hear it from across the floor? Don't you say I'm deliberately making trouble?
I'm letting you hear the noise you made, why don't you continue to sleep?!"
He still remembers it.
When the black shadow said the last sentence, the voice suddenly became sharp, and the original ghost shadow directly turned into a man's angry face, and suddenly rushed towards them...
