Chapter 29 Ghost Contract
"On the right hand of the second floor..." I gestured with my hands, "The first household..."
"Yeah." said the 'fat white'.
Since the old man's surname is Liu, his white and fat son is naturally also named Liu, so he later called him Fatty Liu.
"Okay, where is the key?" I asked.
"Key?" Fatty Liu was stunned by my question.
"Yes, who knows whether the door is open or locked? If it is locked, how can I enter without a key?"
"oh oh…"
Fatty Liu touched his pockets on both sides, took out a bunch of keys, pointed to one of them, "This..."
When I took the key, I glanced at everyone, and saw everyone staring at me, with horror in my eyes. I threw the key up coldly and fell back to my palm.
"Xin, let's go..."
Although the building of this resident yard is quite large, it seems that there is no one living in it, and there is no light in the yard. The TV lights from the two houses on the fourth floor above are flashing and dizzy, making them look ghostly.
The entrance to this building is very narrow, and the door opened with a light pull. After taking the magic weapon, I asked Yuxin to follow me and walk up the stairs. There were no lights in this corridor. Because the stairs have been over, they feel bumpy when they step on them...
Although I met this old man last night and saw him move, his "moving" gave me the feeling that it moved under the control of the "little monster". I didn't see him walking around independently, so I was very nervous at this moment...
When we arrived at the stairs on the second floor, we stopped. Both of us breathed very lightly. In the silence, we heard the two hearts pounding violently in our chests.
I gritted my teeth and calmed down, slowly took out my phone, and looked at the room on my right. I saw that this room was equipped with a security door, which looked quite new and well-made. Compared with the mottled and old exterior walls of this room and various graffiti paintings, it looked very inconvenient. I think it was probably the old man who spent money to install it after winning the prize.
I tentatively pulled the door with my hands, and the door didn't move at all, so I inserted the key into it, opened the lock, held my breath, and pulled it with my hands, and the door opened silently...
There was an old wooden door inside, which was not locked, but it was difficult to push. I was afraid that it would make a sound, so I didn't even push twice. During the third move, I increased my strength, and the door bounced open, which shocked my calves. I waited for seven or eight seconds, but there was no movement. I gestured at Yu Xin, clenched my fists, and walked in...
The house is quite large, but it doesn't matter what halls or rooms, and there is no kitchen or bathroom. There is only one wall in the middle, which is one person tall. It should have been repaired by the owner of the house, and the whole house is divided in half. The outside half is used for cooking. The stove wall is smoked and dark, as if it is too fire. The cooking utensils are covered with dust. As for the gas tank, it is like what I saw on TV. The bomb discharging experts cleaned out of the soil from the same World War II bomb...
The half inside the wall, I think it should be the place to sleep. There is a small door open on the wall, and a dirty curtain is hung... Will you see the old man when you open the curtain and go in?... I mobilized all my mind to listen, but I didn't hear anything in the compartment, nor did I sense any inexplicable aura... I looked back at Yu Xin, and saw that her face was pale and her forehead was sweating...
I forced a smile to Yuxin, shook my head, and walked towards the small door alone. When I came to the front, I calmed down, squeezed the talisman in my hand tightly, shouted loudly, opened the curtain and rushed in...
I took a quick photo with my phone and there was no one here at all!...I relaxed my anger and my legs were a little soft. Suddenly, I felt something moving behind me. I turned around suddenly and almost got into Yu Xin's arms.
The two of them retreated at the same time, patted their chests, and then said in unison, "I'm scared you to death..."
I couldn't help laughing.
"Still laugh!"
Yu Xin raised her foot and I hurried to the side.
"A Leng."
"Um?"
"Why is there no one?" Yu Xin asked in confusion.
I shook my head, and was very confused. If it weren't for the inaccurateness of my prediction just now, then, this old man ran away again?
The house had been out of water and electricity for a long time. I used my phone to look at it. I glanced around and saw the painting that was "overall year" at first glance... Following the painting, everything was the same as in the image, the table, the lamp, the water cup... exactly the same...
I looked away and looked at what was not in the image. I saw a bed against the wall. A place that was connected to the end of the bed stood an old-fashioned wardrobe. Next to the wardrobe was a window with thick curtains. I walked up to it, reached out to pull the curtains, and saw that the window was open...
Behind this building is a construction site. From a distance, various building materials are stacked in a mess.
"Did he come in from this window and run away?" Yu Xin muttered.
I didn't agree, just thinking in my heart, what is this old man? Why can he act and be conscious when he dies?…
Thinking of this, my eyes were aimlessly scanned everywhere, landing on the table, and suddenly my heart moved... That table, to be precise, was a desk, with a very old style, with several drawers. I stared at the drawer and said to myself, could it be that the reason why the dead old man ran back to his residence was to find something?
I handed over the phone, "Xin helped me take a look, come here..."
When I walked to the table, I reached out and opened the drawer at the edge, and saw that there were useless stamps inside, big or small, high or low, arranged neatly. In the second drawer next to me, there were some debris, such as cigarette pills, waste watches, bad phones, etc., everything. I shook my head, closed the drawer, and raised my eyes, and saw Yu Xin frowning slightly.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"This room is tide and stuffy, a little uncomfortable..."
I smiled slightly and took the phone from her hand, "I'll follow me, go to the window for some breath."
"No, it's okay..."
"Go quickly." I said without doubt.
Yu Xin hesitated and walked over. I opened the third drawer and saw that there were some notebooks in it, which were very old, but it looked quite new and there was no writing. I carried the notebook out of the drawer, looked at it with one hand on my phone, and flipped it with the other hand. As I flipped through it, something suddenly fell out of the middle of the two notebooks.
I looked at it and saw several pieces of nailed together and white printing paper. I picked it up and looked at the front. I found that this was a contract, about funds and something... The more I looked down, I became more and more shocked. I hurriedly turned to the last page and looked at the bottom. I saw two signatures, each with a red fingerprint on it. One of the signatures was from Old Man Liu, and the other... When I saw the other signature clearly, I almost called it out because this was clearly the name of Boss Wang who died in the brick kiln factory!
What's going on? Didn't Yu Xin say that Boss Wang and the old man's joint venture were not settled until he died? But, how could there be a signed contract in the old man's drawer?!... My heart was pounding, looking at the date of signing the contract... November 22, 2004...
My mind is moving rapidly... When the dead ghost boss Wang ran to his master's house for help, what day did I make the decision to break up?... By the way, it was December 1st! (See the beginning of the first chapter of the first volume of this article).... And this contract shows November 22nd... In other words, less than ten days after the contract was signed, Boss Wang died...
I was about to tell Yu Xin about this major discovery, but Yu Xin called me softly, "A Leng..."
Yu Xin's tone sounded a little wrong, and I was shocked, "What's wrong?"
"Someone is here..."
"people?"
I put the contract in my arms, quickly picked up the notebook on the ground, stuffed it into the drawer, and closed the drawer, and rushed towards the window.
Looking into the distance along the direction of Yu Xin's finger, I saw a man coming towards us. I don't know if anyone was guarding the construction site downstairs, there was not even a light, and I was not afraid of someone stealing building materials. The sky was red by the neon lights of the city never sleeping. As a result, the area behind the building was darker, and I couldn't see who the person was. I could only see that his way of moving was very strange, and his speed was very fast, which was very different from that of ordinary people...
In a moment, this person was only more than ten meters away from the building.
"Walk!"
I grabbed Yu Xin's hand, and the two of them left the compartment and came to the outside.
"A Leng, where are you going?" Yu Xin asked nervously.
I calmly used my phone to look around, and I saw that the stove on the outer room was quite wide and the space underneath was quite large.
“Where, go…”
As soon as Yu Xin got downstairs, he heard the sound of the window in the compartment. A squeak suddenly followed by a "thump". Hearing the sound, the man jumped into the window... This old building is different from the current building. The second floor where Old Man Liu lives is three stories high. Since there is no bathroom, there is no sewer pipe on the wall of this building. In addition, there is slippery moss on the back wall of this building, so it is impossible to climb. I think this should be the reason why Old Man Liu only installed an anti-theft door and no anti-theft window...
However, the "person" who came just now came up from the bottom in a blink of an eye. How did he come up and fly up?...
I held Yu Xin with one hand, covered her mouth with one hand, and held an ice talisman tightly with the other hand, calming my mind and listening intently...
‘Gudong’… Another sound, then ‘Chachak’. I don’t know what the person coming was doing. Yu Xin leaned against me, and her body was trembling.
The "gum" sound suddenly stimulated my eardrums. I was calm and the ice talisman was heated by me.
Suddenly, a 'bang'.
I was shocked, what's wrong?
After that sound, there was a dead silence. I was silent for two minutes, and the atmosphere was so depressing that I was about to suffocate.
"I'll go out and see, don't move here..." I leaned into Yu Xin's ear and said in a low voice.
"I'll go with you..."
"No, be obedient..."
