Chapter 1069 – Disappearing Profile
Chen Ge looked at his parents’ names on the statues and was silent, no one knew what he was thinking.
As the sun rose, Chen Ge took all the red clothes back among the comic books, and he stood next to the reservoir with the two statues.
”I heard a saying from Shadow before, that when the Underworld Fetus is born, it might use the entire city as its mother.”
The water was too deep to see the bottom at a glance, and no one knew what horrors lay hidden beneath the clear surface.
”The Underworld Fetus should also be eager to have its own parents.”
Putting away the two statues, Chen Ge turned to leave, “All of Shadow’s changes started when he entered the world behind the door, and that door in the House of Horrors completely changed him. When the Underworld Fetus mission is over, I’ll push open that door and go in to take a look as well.”
Taking a taxi back to New Century Paradise, Chen Ge put on the employees’ makeup before he entered the employee lounge and fell asleep.
He had to raise his spirits because tonight was the last night.
When the sun rose again, the person who opened his eyes and saw the sunlight might not be himself anymore.
The House of Horrors was already on the right track, and did not require much effort from him. The ghosts and monsters had already gotten used to life here, and their “lives” had been extended in another form.
At one o’clock in the afternoon, Chen Ge was awakened by the alarm, he put on his backpack and hurriedly left the staff lounge, according to the address on the business card, he came to the old town.
”Going around in circles, I didn’t expect to be back here again.”
The Old Town was huge, and Chen Ge had only been to a small part of it before.
He took the business card and asked questions as he walked, finally finding the place where the woman worked next to a very shabby neighborhood.
”Jiu Hong Housing Agency?”
The words on the advertising sign were half fallen off, and the glass room door was open, as if there was some kind of malfunction, and it didn’t close at all.
There were a bunch of advertisements plastered on the pole directly opposite the door of the room, from marriage proposals, to treatments for skin diseases, to people searching.
There were several bicycles parked messily next to the pole, and one of them had a punctured tire.
The floor tiles at the entrance are still neatly paved, but in addition to that part of the entrance, the floor tiles on both sides are all cracked, and black sewage will come out from the cracks when you step on them.
With the continuous development of Hanjiang, many places in the old city have been reformed, but this is obviously an exception.
Chen Ge took his business card and glanced inside the house, where an old man was sighing on the worn wooden sofa, holding a cup of cloudy tea in his hand.
There seemed to be someone arguing in the house, and the sound was so loud that even if Chen Ge stood in the doorway, he could hear it clearly.
”Big sister, you recommending that place to me really doesn’t suit me, whatever you say today, you have to give it back!”
”Yeah, we’re not being unreasonable, the problem is who would dare to live in a house like that?”
”Check out! Don’t look for reasons! It’s not easy for us either! If you insist on not checking out, then we’ll come over every day to make trouble!”
Several people surrounded the service desk there in a group, seeming to have been ripped off by the real estate agent.
”Grandpa, what are they arguing about?” Chen Ge quietly walked into the house and didn’t notify the staff, but instead sat down beside the moncler jackets outlet himself.
”Are you here to rent a room too?”
”Yeah, or else what am I doing here?” Chen Ge was curious and glanced over toward the service counter, where the little boy’s mom had a bitter expression and kept explaining something to the people around her.
”Don’t ever come here to rent a room, hurry up and leave.” The grandfather whispered a reminder.
”Why?” Chen Ge asked casually.
”Don’t be greedy for small bargains, although the rent here is the cheapest in the neighborhood,……” moncler outlet store, scratching his head, finally stifled four words, “It’s hard to say.”
”You do not say half and leave half ah, make me more and more curious.”
”The main thing is that I don’t know how to say, anyway, his house is just very strange, always out of all kinds of things, in the past also broke out his family do murder house business.” The wrinkles on his face squeezed together, “You know about the murder house, right? Their boss rents out houses where people have died at low prices and doesn’t tell the tenants. It turned out to be a coincidence that the tenant was some kind of ghost story enthusiast who searched the internet every day for true paranormal stories, and it turned out that one night he saw a report on the internet, and the picture chosen in the report was his house.”
”That’s really exciting.” Chen Ge realized that this grandpa was quite interesting and even knew about true psychic stories.
”Not only is it exciting, it almost didn’t scare him to death, the bed he slept in once had a corpse lying on it, and the pool he usually took a bath in soaked with the dead, who on earth can stand it?” moncler outlet online The wrinkles on his face deepened as he sighed.
”And then did the landlord give him a refund?”
”If the refund will not be exploded, the landlord did not agree to refund the money, only promised to give him another another room, that person is also to work, there is little money on the body can only agree to, and then the most desperate thing happened.” moncler outlet store put down the tea cup: “He alone from the afternoon began to move, moved to the evening, to the new home after he directly began to search online whether there is a murder related to the new home, the results ……”
”What happened as a result?” Chen Ge was also curious, he felt that the tenant couldn’t be that “lucky”.
”The last room was a homicide, this room was a suicide, and once that wallpaper was snapped open, there was still hair hidden inside all of it.” moncler outlet store himself was a bit of a mouthful.
”This is too much, is the landlord purposely pitting this tenant?” Chen Ge put down his backpack, leaned against the back of the sofa chair, and changed to a comfortable position, “Then did the landlord change the room for the tenant later?”
”The tenant was pitched twice, how dare he continue to live here, surely he wants to return the money and leave.”
”The landlord should give him a refund this time, right?”
”Did you see that tall guy at the end of the house? If the landlord had agreed to give him a refund, he wouldn’t have come over to make trouble.” moncler outlet store With a bitter smile on his face.
”So that’s him!” Chen Ge swept the man using his Yin pupil, the other person had heavy dark circles under his eyes, and although he looked tall, he had some Yin deficiency and his Yang fire was not strong.
”He’s not the only one who got screwed, the landlord didn’t give the money back, so everyone could only join together to try to get a statement. As a result, the landlord does not see people, the agency black hearted boss also hide, every day let a receptionist on duty here.” moncler outlet online “We have come several times, but they are just pulling the rug out from under them, and do not give a solution, I now go back to my own home every day are fearful.”
”I think you can call the police, or contact a local reporter, this is really the agency is not right.”
”We’ve tried everything we can, but there’s still nothing we can do because each of us has a different reason for checking out, and while we all know that we’re all not lying, people on the outside don’t see it that way.” moncler outlet online moncler outlet online This statement once again piqued Chen Ge’s curiosity.
”Each of you has a different reason for checking out?”
”Yeah, just take me for example. I’m considered the oldest tenant here, I can hear the bell every night at twelve o’clock, and I’ve gotten used to it over the years, but as a result, I recently realized that all the tenants around me can’t hear the bell, and I’m the only one who can hear that bell.” moncler outlet store “If you say this is not known then also continue to live, the key now know, who still dare to live? And this reason to say out others do not believe, all still think that I am old and confused, to say that I am angry!”
moncler outlet store Staring at the cloudy cup of tea, “It’s not easy to find a place to live and get used to, but there’s no way around it, there are fewer and fewer tenants around, and it’s getting scary for me to go home at night.”
Chen Ge and the moncler outlet store chatting, the service desk there has been a lot of noise, the little boy’s mother apologized one after another, she was the one who was pushed out by the boss to be a shield.
”Grandpa, then what reason did several of them check out for? It can’t be that everyone’s house is a murder house, can it?”
”Only Big Tall Guy’s rental house is a murder house, and everyone else checked out for similar reasons as me.” moncler outlet online The couple that made the most noise was the new ones that moved in, they lived on the fourth floor, and the young people liked to stay up late and always slept late. One day the two of them were playing a game when the man heard the window rattling, he thought the window wasn’t closed tightly so he ran over to look, only to find that there was a dark shadow on the fourth floor of the residential building across the street beckoning to him as if he wanted him to go over.”
”A black shadow? What happened afterward?”
”He was particularly fond of playing games, so he didn’t care at all at the time, and it was only afterward that he thought it was a bit} human. The next day he took it upon himself to keep watch by the window, and at a little after two o’clock in the morning he again saw the dark shadow standing on the fourth floor waving him over.” moncler outlet store He has a great talent for storytelling, with a subdued voice that can make Chen Ge involuntarily substitute for him.
”Did he go over?”
”Who dares to go at night? He waited until noon the next day to go over there, and it turned out that the people in the building gave him the word that the room was empty and hadn’t been occupied for a long time.” moncler outlet online moncler outlet store lowered his voice: “Do you think it’s over? The night he came back he was guarding the window again, and there was no one left in the building across the street to give him a wave, but his glass window kept making noises in the middle of the night, as if someone was lying on the outside of the building trying to pick open his window.”
”I’ll go, so scary.” Chen Ge covered his heart, “Could it be psychological?”
”Then who can say, the key to encountering strange things is not just a few of us.” moncler outlet online, pointing to a student who was filling out paperwork to the left of the desk, “That student always heard a woman upstairs in his house whispering, as if saying something quiet, he thought the floor was poorly soundproofed and didn’t care. After a week, his upstairs neighbor ran down and warned him not to talk to anyone in the middle of the night, and that’s when he realized that the woman’s voice wasn’t coming from upstairs, it was probably coming from somewhere in his house.”
”Not necessarily, both upstairs and downstairs can be heard so clearly, maybe the woman is hiding in the middle of the floor, maybe a body is hidden in the wall?” Chen Ge analyzed it out of habit.
”You suddenly said so ……” moncler outlet online “The face changed:” “It’s really possible!”
”I said it casually, don’t take it to heart.”
”Then can I not take it to heart?!” moncler outlet store He stood up and walked towards the service desk as well, his heart to check out of the room becoming more determined.
In order to share the pressure with the little boy’s mom, Chen Ge also hurriedly walked over, “Don’t argue, everyone, be calm, I’ll help you solve your problems.”
To be honest the little boy’s mom didn’t have a good impression of Chen Ge at first, but when she was surrounded by a group of people making noise, Chen Ge was able to stand out and save the day, which made her change her opinion of Chen Ge.
”Who are you?” Many of the tenants were seeing Chen Ge for the first time, and they were getting angry, and that fire in their hearts went straight to Chen Ge.
”It’s not important who I am, what’s important is that I can help you guys out.” Chen Ge stood in front of the crowd with his backpack, “Can you give me one night’s time? There’s no point in you guys making a scene like this, so why don’t you trust me for once.”
Several tenants had also been victimized by the black-hearted agency owner, and they didn’t trust Chen Ge at all: “Inexplicably, why should we trust you? Day by day, you’re dragging it back, you’re finding all sorts of reasons and excuses to put it off, you just don’t want to solve the problem for us anyway ……”
”If I don’t solve the problem for you tonight, I will rent all of your houses. I will make up for the deposit that the agent withheld, and I will refund the rent that the landlord didn’t refund to you, and if you still don’t believe me, we can sign a contract right now, and write it all down in black and white, and whoever breaches the contract will be compensated tenfold.” After Chen Ge finished this paragraph, the entire intermediary was quiet, all the tenants who had checked out all looked at him.
”Are you sure?”
”Of course, but before each of you leave, you have to tell me word for word about the strange things you experienced during the rental period.” Chen Ge this is a no cost business, can harvest employees that may exist, can help desperate tenants, and can get the most direct and true information: “Line up, one by one.”
moncler outlet store Standing next to him, he wanted to advise Chen Ge to calm down, but seeing the tenants all excited, he shook his head and said nothing.
What happened to the students and the couple was not much different from what moncler outlet store he had recounted earlier.
The focus was on the very tall tenant, who was in a very poor state of mind, and the two bad rental experiences had left him physically and mentally exhausted: “The two houses I rented are both murder houses, and the landlord and the agent have teamed up to cheat us, so I’m ready to use legal means to defend my rights and interests if they don’t return the rent.”
”Is there something you haven’t told everyone?” Chen Ge always felt that this man was acting a bit strange, as if he was hiding something.
Suddenly being questioned by Chen Ge in this way, a trace of surprise flashed under his eyes, and he hesitated for half a day before saying, “I guess you won’t believe it even if I say it out loud, I dreamt that the person who had already died opened his mouth and spoke.”
”Anything can happen in a dream.”
”The thing is, when I woke up from the dream, I opened my eyes and saw the already dead man lying flat on the ceiling.” It was something the man didn’t seem to have told the other tenants, and everyone felt a chill run down their backs when he said that.
”Then do you remember what that deceased person said to you in the dream?”
”Big brother, isn’t your focus too strange? You open your eyes and see the dead man in your dream lying on the ceiling, can you still remember what he said?” The man gasped, he felt an involuntary chill running through his body at the mention of it.
”That means you’ve already forgotten what the person said?” Chen Ge nodded and asked the next question, “So does this happen often? Or does it happen once in a while?”
