Chapter 0022: Midnight Escape!
Chen Ge clenched his teeth and tried not to make a sound, the moment he saw the body, he immediately sent a message to Heshan: “Call the police, call the police!”
The light was too dim and separated by a door, the water friends in the live streaming room didn’t know what was going on, and at this moment Chen Ge couldn’t care less about them, sticking close to the doorway, not daring to blink his eyelids.
”Hiding a corpse in the building, it turns out that the thing they want to dig is this.” Chen Ge shrank behind the wall, he didn’t dare to make any movement, now was the most dangerous and tense time, those few tenants were just a few steps away from him, they only needed to turn around and enter this room to discover Chen Ge.
”Grind and dig!” The landlord let out a low curse and walked over with his tools, he spread the sack on the ground and started to clean the cement around the female corpse.
Probably afraid of waking up the tenants downstairs, they moved very gently and didn’t make too much noise.
The walls were being chiseled away, and the cement blocks kept falling off, a few people didn’t know whether it was the heat or the fear, all of their heads were sweating.
They divided up the labor, but after all, it was the first time to do such a thing, their own heart is also afraid of not, panic, progress is very slow.
It was only after ten minutes that they were able to strip the female corpse from the wall and put it into the sack.
”Fatty, you stay and clean up the wall, the remaining few people will go with me to the back mountain, let’s find a place to bury her.” The landlord carried a brazier and commanded from the side.
”I’ll go with you guys!” The short and fat man opened his mouth without even thinking about it, after digging out the female corpse, his whole body was about to be deflated, how could he dare to stay in this place alone.
”Look at that little bit of talent of yours! Juan’er, you stay here with him to clean up, we’ll meet up at the old place in the back of the mountain later.” The landlord barked a few words at the only woman, then he and the tattooed man carried the sacks towards the stairs.
He walked with a limp and light footsteps, and suddenly paused when he passed the room where Chen Ge was hiding.
”Why is there so much lint on the floor?”
Hearing the landlord’s voice, Chen Ge’s heart was in his throat, the ragdolls were torn apart, some lint and shredded paper fell on the floor, the sound-activated light was on, and he didn’t have time to pick it up after realizing that someone was coming over.
”Forget about that for now, this thing is dead heavy, hurry up and bury it.” The tattooed man urged from behind, the landlord didn’t look deeper, the two passed by the door of the room where Chen Ge was hiding and seemed to be walking away.
”Fatty, don’t just stand there, get to work.” The woman and the short, fat middle-aged man began to clean up the garbage, wiping away the blood stains on their tools, and after a few minutes, the two of them carried a large bag down the stairs.
The footsteps drifted away, and when the third floor was quiet again, Chen Ge dared to take a big breath, he was very cautious and looked out along the doorway.
The corridor was dark, and the tenants had all left.
”Shit! Scared me to death.”
After waiting for another three minutes, there was still no abnormality outside, Chen Ge then slowly pushed open the door of the room and walked out with a cat’s back.
To avoid being discovered, he didn’t turn on his cell phone flashlight and slowly walked forward with one hand on the wall.
”Listening to the conversation of these people, although they are all no good, the female corpse in the wall really has nothing to do with them.” To say the least, this group of people were unlucky enough, after occupying the old man’s apartment, who knew that they would find a corpse in the roof wall. Normal people found the body’s first reaction must be to call the police, but these people themselves are not clean, on the one hand, afraid to call the police by the police to find out their own case, on the one hand, but also feel and the body live in the same building} people, no way but to choose to help the real murderer to take the blame, take the initiative to dig up the body and bury it.
”No wonder the landlord repeatedly explained that he wouldn’t let me go out after midnight.” Chen Ge’s eyes had already adapted to the darkness, and he increased his speed, preparing to leave the apartment building as soon as possible.
Light-handed all the way, Chen Ge’s backpack wasn’t ready to be asked for, and he came directly to the first floor.
”It’s broken.” The security door of the apartment building was locked, and he was trapped in the building.
”Those people went to bury the body and didn’t forget to lock the door on their way out?” Chen Ge vaguely felt something bad, “The windows in the corridor on the first floor are fitted with security nets, the windows on the third floor are boarded up, and the only exit I can leave the apartment building right now is the window of the room on the second floor.”
The atmosphere inside the apartment was eerie, Chen Ge was unwilling to stay, he returned to the second floor with his tool hammer.
The corridor in the darkness was long and deep, like the open mouth of a ferocious beast, once you entered, you would be bitten to pieces.
”So quiet.” Chen Ge’s own room was on the far left side of the corridor adjacent to the landlord’s house, and he was on high alert, terrified that the door to a certain room would suddenly open.
Slowing down his steps and keeping his breath, it took Chen Ge more than a minute to walk to the door of his room.
”Luckily there were no accidents, later I’ll tie the bed sheet to the window frame, going down from the second floor should be no problem.” Chen Ge fumbled for his key and found the lock hole with the help of the dim light from his cell phone screen, he was about to insert the key in when his arm suddenly froze in mid-air.
”How come the half of hair I put in the lockhole is gone?”
Sweat hairs stood up, fear came like a tidal wave from all sides, and Chen Ge only felt his hands and feet go cold.
”Someone has been in my room! They knew I wasn’t in my room!”
Breathing became rapid, and it was as if a piece of ice had been stuffed into his lungs.
”When did they go in? Was it after digging up the body? Or when they found the lint on the floor?” Actually, there wasn’t much point in thinking about this now, Chen Ge stepped back as he looked at the room he had lived in and quickly calmed down, “Can’t go back, those people are most likely in my room right now! Perhaps they are hiding behind the door with steel braziers!”
Strong mental qualities allowed Chen Ge to quickly adjust himself, he had to escape in the shortest time possible, the longer he dragged it out, the more dangerous it would be.
Step by step backward, Chen Ge did not make any sound, he knew very well in his heart that the only way to leave the apartment building now was through the second floor window, all other paths had been blocked.
In the dark and silent corridor, Chen Ge quietly retreated to the far right side of the corridor without making any sound, this was the farthest place from his room on the second floor.
”That group of tenants is more dangerous than I thought, whether or not I can save my little life tonight depends on this fight!” Chen Ge clenched his teeth, raised his tool hammer, and heavily slammed it on the door lock of the room on the far right.
”Boom!”
The dead silence that enveloped Ping An Apartment was broken as Chen Ge continuously whacked the door lock like a madman, and with a loud bang, the last thing he wanted to see happened.
On the far left side of the corridor, the door to Room 208, which Chen Ge had originally rented, was pushed open! Hearing the ringing, the tattooed man and the landlord, both of whom were holding steel braziers and kitchen knives, rushed out with grim faces!
”Open up!”
”Relief!
After continuous hammering, the lock finally fell off, and Chen Ge didn’t hesitate to kick open the door of the room!
