After hearing Song Mengmeng's words, Yao Anna, having calmed down, also realized something was wrong. But since they were already near the house, they still had to go check it out!
They're just looking, it doesn't cost them anything! If they don't like it, they simply won't buy it. So even if there's something fishy going on, it won't cause them any real loss.
Song Mengmeng also thought Yao Anna's idea was feasible.
So the two girls chose this property as their first stop.
This is a relatively old residential community. It is said that it was originally a dormitory building for workers of an old factory. Later, the factory changed its business, and the dormitory building was acquired by a real estate developer at a high price and developed into a commercial and residential community.
Because part of this community consists of resettlement housing, many residents have a good relationship. In addition, the community has good landscaping and the property management is very standardized. So, although the community is old, the environment inside is quite good.
The secondhand housing sales manager arrived early, so he went upstairs to open the door and prepare. Song Mengmeng and Yao Anna took the address and found Building No. 4 without spending too much time.
While Yao Anna was making a phone call to Manager Meng upstairs, Song Mengmeng was about to go downstairs to check out the surroundings when a ball suddenly flew over and startled her.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and caught the ball. When she turned around, she saw an elderly woman with white hair but in good spirits leading a child who looked about three or four years old, coming over somewhat apologetically.
"I'm so sorry, this child is just being silly. Are you alright?!"
The old lady was very polite and did not act unreasonable or take advantage of her age. While apologizing, she also gave the seemingly frightened child a push, urging him to apologize as well.
Song Mengmeng handed the basketball to the little boy and said with a smile, "It's okay, but I was able to dodge it because I reacted quickly. You have to be careful next time you play ball, or you'll get beaten up if the other girls don't react in time!"
"I'm sorry." The little boy blushed, took the basketball, bowed to her shyly, and then, seemingly feeling awkward about staying there any longer, he turned and ran away with the basketball in his arms.
"Oh dear, look at this child! I'm so sorry! Oh, you're all new faces. Are you looking for someone?!" Seeing that Song Mengmeng had a good attitude and wasn't as arrogant and unreasonable as some young and pretty girls, the old lady was happy to stay and chat with her.
Of course, the main reason is that Song Mengmeng and Yao Anna look very unfamiliar.
"It's my friend who wants to buy a house, so she came to look at it." Song Mengmeng also wanted to know about the house. Asking these questions to her regular customers who lived here was much more useful than listening to the real estate agent's boastful talk.
"You guys, you wouldn't happen to be eyeing that apartment on the fourteenth floor of building four, would you?!" Upon hearing Song Mengmeng's words, the old lady's expression suddenly changed, and her voice lowered considerably as she leaned closer to Song Mengmeng with a somewhat mysterious look: "The one in 1408?!"
"Yes, that's the one." Song Mengmeng nodded. Seeing the old lady's attitude, she knew that her previous guess was correct. There was indeed something wrong with this house!
"Oh dear, you can't buy that house! You should look for another one! Everyone who lives here knows that house is haunted! It's haunted!"
The old lady was very careful as she spoke, glancing left and right as if afraid of being seen. Only when no one was around did she reach out and pull Song Mengmeng to a roadside tree to avoid the crowd before continuing, "That house was rented by a couple from the medical university four years ago. We old ladies who live in the nearby buildings have all seen them!"
They are a handsome couple, and they look very well-matched!
I never expected that the seemingly gentle boy would be so ruthless. Not only did he kill the girl, he also dismembered her body!
After the case was solved, things didn't stay peaceful in that house!
Several tenants moved in one after another, and they all said that there were crying sounds coming from the house every night! At first, we all thought it was just a gimmick. But then, yes, last year, a young man thought the rent was cheap, so he rented the place and lived there. But before he had lived there for a month, he committed suicide by cutting his wrists in the house.
After what happened, who would dare rent this house?!
The homeowner had no choice but to sell the house at a reduced price. It was originally priced at three million, but now it's said to be worth only a million or so.
There are plenty of people who want to take advantage of the situation, but with so many things that have happened in this house, who would dare to buy it!
I see your friend is a young woman, so don't just focus on the cheap house price; it's better to be cautious! It would be a shame to work so hard to earn money only to end up with a house you can't live in!
The old lady patiently explained the whole story of the house to Song Mengmeng, and then advised them to think twice before acting.
If anyone else heard this, they would probably be so scared that they would turn around and leave immediately. But after Song Mengmeng learned that the reason the house was sold so cheaply was because it was haunted, she was no longer sleepy.
However, Song Mengmeng still thanked the kind old lady in front of her very seriously and promised to consider it carefully before entering Building 4 with Yao Anna and taking the elevator directly to the fourteenth floor.
The overall floor plan of Building 4 is shaped like the Chinese character "工" (gong). Their destination, Room 1408, was located at the end of the corridor. As soon as Song Mengmeng stepped out of the elevator, she sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere on the entire floor.
