Lemon's flashlight was pointed at the road ahead, while her phone's camera was pointed at her own face.
The light from the screen naturally shone on her face, so the viewers in the live stream could clearly see Lemon's expression and complexion.
Lemon trembled, and the viewers in the fearful live stream were about to speak when a hand slowly reached out from the shadows.
Just as she was about to touch the lemon, the talisman on her hand suddenly became hot.
The moment it heated up, the hand that emerged from the darkness emitted black smoke, as if it had been scorched by something, and it shrank back in fright.
Lemon gripped the burning talisman tightly, not daring to let go. She heard a low, hoarse breath in her ear, as if someone had burned her.
"Ahhh—"
"A ghost! There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"
Lemon's face turned pale as she shouted, quickening her pace as she descended the stairs.
It felt like I was wearing blimps; I zipped up to the third floor and then to the second floor.
The talisman in her hand was still hot, getting hotter and hotter, but even so, she dared not throw it away.
She knew perfectly well that the talisman was protecting her.
Once the talisman leaves her hand, she will die!
This feeling was so strong that her rationality became clearer and her brain worked quickly. She kept silently repeating to herself that the talisman could not be lost, it must not be lost!
[Knock! Lemon definitely saw something!]
[She suddenly shouted that there was a ghost, and her hand was still tightly clutching the talisman given to her by Master Jiang—there's definitely something there!]
[Run, lemon! You'll be safe once you get out!]
I'm so worried! Who on earth would lure someone to the Zhang family building?
Who knows? The only thing we know is that he's not a good person.
[It gives me a sense of conspiracy.]
It wasn't until she reached the first floor and saw the back door that a glimmer of hope ignited in Lemon's eyes, and she quickened her pace.
However, when she tried to rush out, she found that there was a glass wall blocking her way, which bounced her back.
Only then did she understand why Jiang Yuan had said to stick the talisman on the back door.
You can only enter, not leave!
It seems we can't get out?
[A talisman! Quickly put on the talisman Master Jiang gave you!]
[The talisman!!! The talisman given by Master Jiang is not just for show; don't forget Master Jiang's instructions!]
[I'm in such a hurry!! I need to put up a talisman!!]
Netizens flooded the screen with comments.
After realizing she couldn't get out, Lemon immediately took out the talisman that Jiang Yuan had given her separately and stuck it on the transparent part in front of her.
Strangely, the talisman stuck on and showed no signs of falling off.
This means that something is indeed blocking the door!
The talisman suddenly burst into flames, turning into ashes that scattered on the ground.
At the same time, Lemon seized the opportunity and took a step forward.
This time, the wall seemed to have vanished, and she stepped out with a single stride.
The moment she stepped out, Lemon felt the warmth of the sun shining on her.
It was then that she realized something.
Something's not right inside.
It was broad daylight, and the sun was shining brightly outside, but inside it was as dark as night, with no sunlight able to penetrate at all.
Thinking of this, Lemon hurriedly got into her car.
Bang--
I closed the car doors and windows, as if afraid that what was inside might come out.
Then, she stepped on the gas and drove away quickly.
"Friends, it's really strange inside."
"It's 3 PM now, under the blazing sun, but it's pitch black inside!!"
"Inside, my signal was full, I could chat with you guys, and I could see your messages immediately. But after I came out, the signal spiked and there was a delay."
"The signal inside is actually better than outside..."
Lemon analyzed the situation rationally.
She felt that something eerie was about it.
After thinking about it carefully, I felt even more terrified inside.
It's amazing that she managed to get out of there safely...
I've hit the jackpot!
Lemon felt very grateful to Jiang Yuan.
If it weren't for her, she would have really died inside.
When Jiang Yuan comes out, she must give her a gift and thank her properly!
[Oh right!! It's only three o'clock now, the sun is blazing outside, but there's not a ray of sunlight inside!]
I always felt something was off, and now I know why.
This is really strange!
It's really strange. There's nothing blocking the door, yet we can't get out, and sunlight can't shine in either. It's so weird!
[It seems I was indeed fooled by those streamers who boasted that the Zhang's Building wasn't scary. I just checked out the new streamer who suddenly appeared a few days ago; his account has been deleted. He used to talk about the Zhang's Building and make videos about it.]
The streamer I follow has also deleted their account; it feels like they were all in cahoots.
[I suddenly remembered a few days ago there was a report about a small streamer with tens of thousands of followers who went exploring the Zhang's Building. Her live stream went black midway through, and she ended the broadcast. Later, her parents reported her missing to the police, and that's how the story came to light.]
[It's likely they fell victim to a "pig butchering scam" like Lemon, but unfortunately, they didn't run into Master Jiang.]
I feel like I've fallen for the same trick.
There's probably something inside, and that thing needs people to support it. Hopefully, Master Jiang can solve that problem.
With Jiang Yuan's live stream and Lemon's escape, more and more people online are discussing the strange phenomena inside the Zhang's Building.
Some even listed the people who had previously disappeared from Zhang's building.
A total of twenty-three people have disappeared from the Zhang family building over the years.
The fact that these twenty-three were included in the count is because they were featured in the news.
Twenty-three is no small number, especially considering it's the reported number, the kind that everyone can see for themselves.
How many of these cases haven't been exposed or made the news?
No one knows for sure.
All we know is that the number of people who actually disappeared from the Zhang family building is definitely more than twenty-three; it could be double, or even several times more.
Based on what they saw in Jiang Yuan's live stream today and what Lemon said, they saw several corpses with their own eyes. Preliminary assessment suggests that at least five or six people died inside.
It is at least, not at most.
In other words, the number of people who died in the Zhang family building today is very likely more than five or six.
This is just today's number. What about yesterday, the day before yesterday, or even earlier?
With so many people dead, they don't believe that the parents or relatives of those people didn't report it to the police. So why didn't the police in D City do anything, and why wasn't such a big thing exposed?
If they hadn't watched the live stream today and witnessed it with their own eyes, they probably would never have known about this.
Subsequently, a large number of people online criticized the police officers in D City as incompetent.
However, the moment the insults were uttered, the other party's account was banned for violating the rules.
Some people even went to the Jiang Group's official WeChat account to ask the Jiang family to investigate the Zhang Group Building.
But it was just a public account, and nobody paid any attention to their requests.
However, after netizens brought it up, the matter became increasingly popular, and more and more people, including the Mysterious Bureau, paid attention to the Zhang's Building.
