#68 - Strange Neighbor
"No, still not right!"
Lin Jue quickly rejected this conjecture again. Although this guess seemed to form a logical closed loop, it had a major flaw.
That was, why would the landlord pretend not to know Wu Fang?
There was no benefit in doing so, and it was impossible to deceive Fu Yu, after all, Fu Yu knew Wu Fang before.
Unless the landlord knew that he was not the real Fu Yu.
But that was even more impossible. The shop owner also knew Fu Yu. When Lin Jue went there just now, the other party didn't notice anything unusual, indicating that he now perfectly fit the role of Fu Yu. The landlord shouldn't be able to see through him.
All the reasoning was overturned, and things returned to square one.
Lin Jue rubbed his temples and suddenly heard the sound of a door closing from room 3 next door, followed by the sound of high heels on the floor, passing through the public corridor outside and going downstairs.
Wu Fang went out.
At this hour, what was she going out to do?
Lin Jue walked to the window, opened a gap in the curtain, and looked outside.
From the window here, you could just see Yangtao Street outside.
On the deserted street, Wu Fang, wearing a long black dress, walked alone into the distance, and soon disappeared into the darkness at the end of the street.
Should he follow her and see?
It wasn't safe for a girl to go out alone at night, and besides, the script itself required peeping. Secretly following her was an advanced version of peeping.
Lin Jue quietly walked out the door. To prevent the door from making too much noise when closing, he only gently closed it.
As soon as he came outside the room, he noticed something was wrong.
It was very cold.
It was like suddenly opening the door of the refrigerator's freezer with your bare arms, the rush of cold air made people couldn't help but shiver.
Although it was already late summer and early autumn, and the temperature difference between day and night was large, the night shouldn't have cooled down to this point, and he didn't feel this cold in the room at all.
Did something appear again?
Lin Jue looked around, learning from the lesson of the "Liar"副本, he even looked at the floor, ceiling, and all the nooks and crannies, but he didn't see anything.
The further he went down the corridor, the lower the temperature.
Lin Jue stopped at the door of room 1. He felt as if this room was sending cold air outwards.
He reached out and felt the gap between the door panel and the ground, and there was indeed a cold air blowing outwards. When he got closer to listen, he could also hear the whirring sound of the air conditioner inside the room.
"Is old Li really that hot? How low is the air conditioner turned on? And the cooling effect of this air conditioner is too good, the temperature of the entire floor has dropped."
Lin Jue leaned on the door panel. In addition to the sound of the air conditioner, there was also the sound of old Li's teeth chattering in room 1.
"So cold, so cold."
If he feels cold, why does he turn the air conditioner so low? He looked very hot during the day, and even took off all his clothes.
Lin Jue was puzzled. After listening for a few seconds, he didn't continue to delay here. He went down the corridor and chased in the direction where Wu Fang disappeared.
"This woman walks so fast. It's only been a few minutes, but I can't see her anymore."
The entire long street was empty, and you could see the end at a glance. Wu Fang seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Lin Jue walked hundreds of meters without seeing any trace of her.
"So hurried, and running out at this hour again, could it be to meet her lover?"
With no success in following her, Lin Jue could only walk back. The entire building was hidden in the darkness, without a single bit of light, adding a bit of deathly silence, looking like an empty building with no one living in it.
He quietly sneaked up to the third floor and stopped outside the landlord's door.
He could faintly hear unbearable sounds coming from inside the house. The landlord seemed to be hiding in the quilt watching restricted-level videos.
"This guy looks like his body has been hollowed out. He's been sizing up Wu Fang lecherously. Wu Fang shouldn't like this guy."
Lin Jue completely ruled out the possibility of the landlord being Wu Fang's lover and quietly walked to room 5.
This was the room where the salesman he saw during the day lived. The other party was originally on the phone with the door open, but when he saw him, he closed the door hastily as if he had seen a ghost.
There was a very low sob in the room, and you could also hear the other party's low wailing.
"My money, my money!"
"No! Please! Don't do this!"
He didn't know if this guy was having a nightmare or talking to someone on the phone. It seemed that someone was going to rob him of his money. For a scamming salesman, this was tantamount to robbing him of his life.
Lin Jue silently came to the last room, room 6. During the day, the door of this room was closed, but according to the landlord, there was someone in this house, but they had been staying at home all the time, rarely going out and never contacting anyone.
A very light whimper came from room 6. The person inside seemed to be crying with their mouth covered.
"During the day, my neighbors all seemed quite normal, why do they become a little strange at night."
Lin Jue walked back along the corridor. As soon as he walked to room 4, the landlord's door opened. The other party was holding a mobile phone, looking at something with a lewd expression. When he saw Lin Jue, he was startled and quickly closed the phone.
"Fu Yu? Why aren't you sleeping at night and coming upstairs?"
"Couldn't sleep, the room was very stuffy, came out to get some air." Lin Jue looked at the other party. The landlord was only wearing a pair of thin sleeping pants, and there were a few spots of scarlet on the sleeping pants, like plum blossoms painted on them, or like blood splattered on them.
"Go to bed early, it's so late." The landlord muttered, and then closed the door.
The newest and most complete novels are all available at Liu 9 Shu Ba (六 9 书 吧)!
"As soon as he saw me, he gave up on going out. Where was he going just now when he opened the door?"
Lin Jue touched the scar on his face, held the handrail of the stairs, and walked downstairs with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
He stopped outside his room and suddenly stopped just as he inserted the key into the lock.
"Did I close the door when I went out just now?"
"Did the wind blow the door shut?"
He reached out and felt the air. The summer night wind wasn't strong.
"It seems that the wind did blow the door shut..."
"In this godforsaken place, how could someone break into a house and steal?"
Lin Jue said casually while suddenly pulling open the door.
The room was silent. You could see the entire room from the door, and there was no trace of anyone.
No one?
Lin Jue searched the house carefully, not even letting go of places like under the bed and the corners of the closet, and found no signs of anyone having entered.
Things were also in their original places, with no traces of being rummaged through.
"No, someone has been in here."
He stopped at the bathroom door. There was a basin on the bathroom floor, and in the basin was the white coat he had soaked during the day.
And on one side of the basin, there was a very faint footprint.
The footprint was stained with water, making it difficult to spot on the white floor tiles.
Lin Jue squatted down and carefully observed the footprint. Judging from the size, it was a man's footprint, first excluding Wu Fang.
During the time he left the room, someone had secretly sneaked into his room and stayed in the bathroom for a while.
"Is it the landlord?"
Lin Jue first suspected the landlord, because only that guy had the keys to all the rooms.
He reached out and wiped away the footprint, stood up and stretched.
"I'm peeping at others, it seems someone is also eyeing me."
