Chapter 1076 – The Stinkiest Room

　　”Female underwear?” Wen Qing didn’t notice those details, and she only felt a little bit scared after hearing Chen Ge remind her, “He’s a pervert who steals underwear?”

　　”Wu You should have seen his secret as well, that’s why he ran out to dissuade us after realizing that we were in contact with Wu You.” Chen Ge and Wen Qing stood in the hallway, both of their voices were so low that only the other could hear them, “What worries me the most isn’t the man stealing the underwear, it’s what he said. Wu You opened the door and kept waiting for his mom and dad to come home, indicating that he thought his family was just out, but the middle-aged man said that Wu You’s parents were killed by Wu You.”

　　”You mean that the one who killed Wu You’s parents was the middle-aged man?” Wen Qing followed Chen Ge and slowly her way of thinking became similar to Chen Ge.

　　”I estimate that many people moved together, no one was the direct murderer, but all of them had something to do with Wu You’s parents’ death.” After meeting the three tenants, Chen Ge realized that this building had its own rules, the tenants had already defaulted, if anyone wanted to break the rules they would likely be targeted by everyone: “When a person witnesses a murder and then he doesn’t cooperate with the police investigation and maliciously hides it, then he is an accomplice.”

　　”According to you, I feel so sorry for Wu You, after we find Xiang Nuan, how about we take him away with us too?” Wen Qing is a very kind woman, but kindness is the most useless thing for the aborigines behind the door, if you want to survive in this place for a long time, the first thing you have to discard is the goodness in human nature.

　　”Let’s find Xiang Nuan first.”

　　Following the stairs to the second floor, Chen Ge and Wen Qing both stopped in their tracks.

　　There was an old woman standing on the long corridor of the gloomy second floor, holding a porcelain bowl full of stains, with some coins and some leftover food inside the bowl.

　　This old man was originally standing outside a certain door, and was turning the door handle with all her might, but no matter how hard she tried, she was unable to open the door.

　　As Chen Ge passed by, the old woman saw him and turned towards him.

　　Hands full of stains waved in front of Chen Ge as she held the bowl, and a cackling sound came out of her mouth, which was horrifying to hear.

　　”Granny Li?” Wen Qing recognized the old man in front of her, and she was very surprised when she saw the old lady’s appearance.

　　”You know her? From your neighborhood?”

　　”I used to, then his son said that she got lost, and I haven’t seen her for a few years now.” Wen Qing’s eyes were full of surprise: “That old lady lived a very refined life, her hair was neatly combed, her clothes didn’t even have a single wrinkle on them, and she often took care of those flowers and grasses in the garden all by herself.”

　　”Could it be that her son didn’t want to take care of her and abandoned her?”

　　”That’s his mom, it’s not an item, how could he just say he threw it away?”

　　”Don’t overestimate human nature, I watched the news the other day and saw a man bury his paralyzed mother alive, novels don’t even dare to write that.”

　　Chen Ge and Wen Qing stood in place, the old lady’s spirit seemed to have been strongly stimulated by something, crazy, there was no way to communicate, she just kept extending the bowl to Chen Ge.

　　”Are you hungry?” Chen Ge didn’t mind the old man’s stained coat, and walked to the old man’s side and said, “Do you need me to send you home?”

　　Through Wen Qing’s brief description, Chen Ge felt that this crazy old lady was a “good person” and belonged to the group of people who could be fought for.

　　The old lady couldn’t seem to speak in complete sentences, and anxiously stretched her bowl out in front of Chen Ge, making strange noises in her throat.

　　Chen Ge touched a piece of change from his pocket and put it into the old man’s bowl, but the old woman still stubbornly held up the bowl, her hands kept gesturing something, what she wanted was not money, but something else.

　　The old man made a bit of a commotion, and after the two sides stood in a stalemate for more than ten seconds, the door to room 206 on the second floor, near the stairs, was opened.

　　”It’s you again.” The one who opened the door was a young man, wearing headphones, his face was pale, as if he hadn’t seen the sunlight for a long time, “I just kicked you out, why are you back again?”

　　He looked at the dirty old man with disgust and walked out of the house, yanking Chen Ge and the old man apart, “Don’t get stuck with this old man, or she’ll keep following you around, like a life-hungry ghost, and be a pain in the ass.”

　　The young man in room 206 was by far the most normal person Chen Ge had seen behind the door, no matter the tone of voice or physical appearance, he was the same as the ordinary person outside the door.

　　”Little Sun?” Wen Qing recognized the young man, but the young man did not recognize her.

　　”Who are you? Forget it, I’m not interested in knowing, you guys be quiet, I’m recording a song inside.” The young man closed the door of the room after saying that.

　　”That young man is the old lady’s family?” Chen Ge asked softly.

　　”No, Granny Li lives in 205, her son is very fierce looking, nothing like Granny Li.”

　　”Then who is Little Sun? He gives me a different feeling from the other tenants.” Chen Ge looked at room 206, as the number of tenants he came into contact with slowly increased, his heart became more and more confused, this is the world behind Xiang Nuan’s door, what kind of relationship exists between these people and Xiang Nuan?

　　”Xiao Sun is a college student who likes to sing and had rented 206 in Jinhua neighborhood for a while. At that time, he paid a one-time rent of half a year, but he left when he lived in the second month, and he didn’t ask for the deposit, and a lot of things in the house were not cleaned up, and the landlord even complained to me for a long time.”

　　”How do you remember Little Sun as a person?”

　　”He seldom leaves his room, he doesn’t go to class, he doesn’t talk much, he occasionally goes to the supermarket to purchase a whole lot of daily necessities and food, as far as I can remember he’s a very ordinary geek.”

　　”A very ordinary otaku who lived in your neighborhood for two months and then strangely disappeared.” Chen Ge used his Yin pupil to sweep the interior of room 206 when the door to the room was opened just now, he found that there were a few cracks on the walls of room 206, the siding was peeling off badly, and the interior of room 206 was extremely poorly decorated.

　　”How is it that he just disappeared strangely? Maybe he just had an emergency and was too late to inform the landlord. By the way, I heard the landlord say that the room that Xiao Sun had rented was very messy, the garbage was piled up into a mountain, and the furniture was broken, so maybe he was worried about having to compensate the landlord for the money, so he secretly ran away.”

　　”A sheep lives with wolves, what do you think will happen to that sheep?”

　　”What are you trying to say?”

　　”If he hadn’t turned into a wolf, then he would have been eaten by a wolf. When everyone is an accomplice, you don’t want to be an accomplice, then you can only be a victim.”

　　Granny Li also heard what Chen Ge said, and interestingly, the originally emotional Granny Li’s movements slowly became smaller, and she seemed to have understood Chen Ge’s words.

　　Granny Li’s reaction was within Chen Ge’s expectations, he had just discussed Xiao Sun in front of Granny Li because he wanted to test the other party.

　　It was very difficult to survive in the world behind the door, and every “person” had to have a reason not to be killed.

　　Wu You is a liar, Granny Li is crazy, Xiao Sun looks the most normal, his next situation is also the most dangerous, of course, if he has already “compromised” that is another matter.

　　The hand holding the porcelain bowl trembled, Granny Li could not speak, she stopped those strange behavior, just followed Chen Ge, unwilling to leave.

　　It was just like what Xiao Sun had just said, Granny Li was like a “ghost begging for her life”, and she didn’t want to leave.

　　”Little Sun should have experienced something like this as well, if I’m not mistaken, Granny Li is actually reminding him or trying to ask Little Sun for help in this way.”

　　Chen Ge was curious as to why Granny Li couldn’t speak, according to Wen Qing’s memories, there shouldn’t be any problems with this old lady’s voice.

　　”Is she unable to speak? Or doesn’t dare to speak?”

　　Without continuing to stay on the second floor, Chen Ge, Wen Qing, and Granny Li, who was following them, came to the first floor together.

　　”Grandpa Huang lives in room 104, and there are only three rooms on the first floor with people living in them; the other three rooms have been converted into a utility room and a storage room.” Wen Qing also felt that Master Huang could be trusted, so she was even more anxious than Chen Ge and ran directly to the door of 104, knocking on the door of the room.

　　While Wen Qing knocked on the door, Chen Ge surveyed the first floor corridor.

　　Unlike Ying Hitomi’s world behind the door, the internal space of this building was not an infinite loop, the entrance to the hallway was right in front of him, except that there was an iron door full of rust stains at the exit, and there was a lock on the door, so you had to have a key to get out.

　　”The door to go out is locked, if Xiang Nuan doesn’t have the key, he should still be in the building, but what if the key is in Xiang Nuan’s hands?”

　　Chen Ge had entered the door for some time, but he still didn’t have any clue, he couldn’t see Xiang Nuan’s despair, all he saw in front of him was other people’s despair, Xiang Nuan himself was more like a bystander.

　　”The corridor on the first floor has the most blood stains, that blood black blood spots penetrated into the floor tiles, the inside of the wall skins all appeared to have blood like lines, this floor is likely to be more dangerous than the upper floors.”

　　While Chen Ge was thinking, the door to room 104 was opened, followed by Chen Ge hearing a cry of alarm from Wen Qing.

　　”What’s wrong?”

　　Chen Ge looked back and he was also startled.

　　The iron door of room 104 was opened, and an old man with a hunched back stood behind the door, he was very short and seemed to be pressing something on his back.

　　If it was just that, Chen Ge wouldn’t even furrow his eyebrows, the most frightening thing was the old man’s face.

　　That wrinkled face was all covered with teeth bite marks, and all the bite marks were of different depths, and the teeth marks were not exactly the same, they seemed to have been torn out by different people.

　　”Grandpa Huang?” Chen Ge asked uncertainly as he forced himself to act normal.

　　”I am surnamed Huang, do you guys want to find me for something?” The old man hunched his back and walked out of the room, an indescribable stench emanating from his room.

　　”Master Huang, I am Wen Qing ……,” Wen Qing said stiffly with both eyebrows furrowed.

　　”Wen Qing?”

　　”Don’t you remember me? I often brought you food, you were sick once, I even sent you to the hospital, and I took care of you every day.” All these things that Wen Qing had said had not been told to Chen Ge before.

　　”I’m sorry, I’m getting old, I really can’t remember some things, are you also a resident here?” The old man’s face was full of doubts, his body seemed to be very weak and he would cough every few words.

　　”Of course, I live in …….”

　　”Master Huang, we want to ask you about something.” Chen Ge decisively stopped Wen Qing and didn’t let Wen Qing continue.

　　In fact, he had already discovered that something was wrong, everyone in the world behind the door didn’t seem to recognize Wen Qing, this person who was the most important person to Xiang Nuan was a blank slate in the world behind the door.

　　There was no face of Wen Qing in those abusive flyers on the wall, which turned into headless photos.

　　Just now Xiao Sun had no impression of Wen Qing, and now moncler outlet online Huang didn’t have the slightest memory of Wen Qing either, this is definitely not a coincidence.

　　The door was pushed open by Xiang Nuan, Chen Ge felt as if Xiang Nuan was specifically protecting Wen Qing, and he didn’t want Wen Qing to have any connection with the world behind the door.

　　Even if he fell into the abyss, Wen Qing would still be the same Wen Qing on earth.

　　”Not a bad idea, but he shouldn’t have expected that Wen Qing would follow him into the World Behind the Gate.” Chen Ge didn’t say this, he only thought about it in his mind, the focus now was to figure out whether Grand Master Huang was an enemy or a friend.

　　”What do you guys want to inquire about?” The old man’s physical state was poor, and his back hunched even more as he held his hand on the door of the room.

　　”Grandpa, has anyone ever gone out through this door at the entrance of the building?”

　　”Shouldn’t have, recently there is more chaos outside, the landlord added a lock to the door, the key is in the landlord, want to go out you have to find the landlord to do so.” Huang moncler outlet store short sentence but revealed very much information.

　　Outside is more chaotic, indicating that they more or less know the situation of several other buildings, this neighborhood is a whole, and there will be a connection between each other.

　　The locks were added by the landlord, and if Chen Ge and the others wanted to go out, they had to find the key from the landlord first.

　　In the end, Chen Ge also read one more thing from the old man’s words, at least within this building, the landlord was a very key person, he had completely ignored this person before.

　　Before entering this door, he didn’t have time to contact the landlord because time was too tight, and now he could only rely on Wen Qing’s knowledge of the landlord to figure out the landlord’s situation.

　　”Is there anything else? If not, I’ll go back. I’m old, my legs hurt when I stand for a while.” After finishing his sentence, moncler huang was about to close the door, but he was only halfway there when the security door was grabbed by Chen Ge.

　　”Grandpa, can we go sit in your house for a while?”

　　The stench in moncler outlet online Huang’s house is extremely strong, the heaviest odor of all the rooms, Chen Ge felt that this house must be hiding some secrets, so even if moncler outlet online Huang did not agree, he would try to go in and check it out in every way possible.

　　”As you wish.”

　　Grandpa Huang did not reject Chen Ge’s somewhat unreasonable request, he seemed to be really tired, and after saying this, he sat back on the sofa inside the house holding onto the wall.

　　Seeing that sofa, Wen Qing had another moment of numbness, the backrest of that sofa was full of tiny vein-like things.

　　Grandpa Huang’s body was curled up on the sofa, and the expression on his face finally relaxed.

　　Wen Qing wanted to remind Chen Ge, but Chen Ge had already walked in, and it was as if he couldn’t even see those scary and bizarre things, as if he had returned to his own home, and casually sat down across from Grandpa Huang.
