Chapter 206 Videotape
"Here we are, right here."
Wang Chengyu came to a residential area according to the address provided by Uncle Chen.
After getting off the car, the two looked inside the community.
I found that this community looks quite good and the green facilities inside are also very complete.
Seeing this, Wang Chengyu couldn't help but sigh to Jiang Tao:
"Oh, people are really different."
"We don't even have a partner right now, but they've already arranged a wedding room for us."
Hearing Wang Chengyu's sigh, Jiang Tao said:
"Why, did what uncle said on the phone just now make you feel something?"
Just as Jiang Tao said, Wang Chengyu's father called again on the way to give him instructions.
And he gave him a lecture on the matter and asked him to be more careful.
When Wang Chengyu heard this, he smiled at Jiang Tao and said:
"Although it sounds a bit annoying, what my dad said does make sense."
"Come on, let's see what we can do for you first."
After saying that, Wang Chengyu and Jiang Tao entered the residential area.
Moreover, he soon found himself downstairs at the property management office of the residential complex and was stopped by the security guard.
"Are you the owners? What are you doing here?"
Looking at the gray-haired security guard in front of him, Wang Chengyu told him his purpose.
"Uncle, we are friends of the resident of Unit 4, Building 3, 601. They asked us to come and help."
As Wang Chengyu finished speaking, the security guard looked at them.
His eyes seemed a little strange, and he slowly said:
"Oh...you were called here..."
The security guard didn't finish his words, as if there was something he couldn't reveal.
He swallowed the rest of his words and took out a key from the security room.
It seems that Uncle Chen had already placed the key here, waiting for them to come and get it.
Wang Chengyu took the key and noticed that the security guard's attitude was a little strange.
He asked curiously, "Uncle, is there any problem?"
"……nothing."
Hearing the voice, the security guard waved at Wang Chengyu, signaling them to leave.
Seeing this, Wang Chengyu and the other two didn't think much about it. They just said thank you and turned around.
But just after taking a few steps, the security guard's voice came from behind again.
"Young man..."
Hearing the noise, they both turned around at the same time. Wang Chengyu said with a polite smile on his face:
"What's wrong, sir?"
When Wang Chengyu asked, the security guard saw that there was no one around and asked:
"Excuse me for asking, but... are you on good terms with the owner?"
Hearing the security guard's incoherent question, Wang Chengyu and the others were stunned.
However, after a few seconds of silence, Wang Chengyu simply explained:
"It's okay, I guess...what's wrong?"
The security guard heard the voice and said with a look of wanting to say something but hesitated:
"He said he needs your help with something, right?"
Wang Chengyu nodded, and the security guard continued:
"Well, then remember to find out what the matter is, resolve it as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible, and try not to stay in the house for too long..."
The security guard's words confused Wang Chengyu and the other man again.
But just as they were about to ask something, the security guard turned around and went back to the security room and no longer answered them.
"Hiss... How strange."
Seeing this, Wang Chengyu muttered something and took a few steps with Jiang Tao.
"Fatty, what did this old man mean by that?"
Jiang Tao was also confused and spoke to Wang Chengyu.
"I didn't understand what you meant by don't stay any longer. You're making such a fuss."
Muttering something, Wang Chengyu patted Jiang Tao on the shoulder and said:
"Hey, stop imagining."
"Maybe the security guards think we are unfamiliar and don't want us to wander around the neighborhood."
Wang Chengyu has come to a temporary conclusion and now has the key.
I walked around the community and called Uncle Chen.
Within a few seconds, the call was answered.
"Hey, Uncle Chen, I'm here."
"Is there something you want to move? Or are you waiting for someone?"
Wang Chengyu asked a few questions, and after listening to the other party's response, he nodded and said:
"Oh... let's go upstairs first, okay? OK, got it."
As the call was hung up, Wang Chengyu and the other person had already arrived downstairs at the apartment.
The two were about to enter the unit door and go upstairs.
While Wang Chengyu was on the phone, Jiang Tao looked around.
As if he felt something was wrong, he pressed Wang Chengyu's shoulder and said:
"Fatty, this seems a little strange."
"Huh?" Wang Chengyu was stunned, looked at Jiang Tao puzzledly:
"What's so strange about that? Isn't the environment of this community quite good?"
As Wang Chengyu finished speaking, Jiang Tao realized something.
"Yeah...it seems that it's because the environment is good that I feel something is weird."
Jiang Tao's words made Wang Chengyu even more confused.
Then Jiang Tao gestured for him to look around.
The greening of this community is well done, and there are not many cars parked around.
There were only a few old people playing chess in front of a health product pharmacy not far away.
The sound of playing chess stopped at this moment, and several of the old men were looking towards them intentionally or unintentionally.
After taking a look at the surrounding environment, Jiang Tao frowned.
He continued to speak to Wang Chengyu:
"Fatty, don't you think... this neighborhood is a little too quiet?"
"It's like there are only a few people living here, but the facilities are so good, it shouldn't be so deserted."
As Jiang Tao's voice fell, Wang Chengyu was silent for a few seconds.
He now felt that Jiang Tao's analysis made sense.
Because as soon as he entered the community, he found that there were very few people here.
There were not even a few young people on the street, most of them were older.
There were no private cars parked on either side of the roads in this community.
There are three convenience stores in total, two of which have closed down, making the empty road even more deserted.
"That's true..." Wang Chengyu nodded, thinking about something in his mind.
After a while, he seemed to have figured it out, slapped his forehead and said to Jiang Tao:
"Maybe... it's because there are fewer people living here that the housing prices are cheaper?"
"That's why Uncle Chen chose to buy a wedding house for his son here!"
"Hey, now it all fits!"
Wang Chengyu seemed to have figured out the cause and effect of the matter, and a smile appeared on his face.
When Jiang Tao heard the voice, he didn't say anything more and continued to walk into the unit door and went upstairs.
……
"Click..."
Wang Chengyu and the other person went upstairs and opened the resident's door with the key.
As the door opened, the situation inside the room became visible.
Just as Uncle Chen said on the phone, this is the wedding room he prepared for his son.
There are several baskets placed at the entrance, filled with dates, peanuts, longans and melon seeds.
It was obviously a tradition of the older generation, symbolizing the early birth of a son. Next to the basket was a stack of red wedding characters that had not yet been pasted.
These happy characters are placed a little messily.
I don’t know if it was because of the wind when the door was opened just now, or if people left in a hurry and didn’t have time to clean up.
Wang Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the bright and spacious scene in the room.
It was as if some indescribable haze just now was swept away at this moment.
He smiled at Jiang Tao and said:
"This room is quite bright. The security guard just made me feel so weird that I started to doubt my life."
As Wang Chengyu finished speaking, Jiang Tao also nodded.
I just thought I was overthinking it. This is just an ordinary wedding room.
What's more, the development zone of Yanhai City is an area where housing prices are relatively low.
Because the location here is relatively remote, it is not uncommon that most of the people living here are elderly.
Thinking of this, Jiang Tao felt relaxed.
It was also because of his previous experience with Lin Nan in the abandoned hospital that made him start to become suspicious.
Then, Jiang Tao took a look at the bridal chamber and found that the decoration style was rather old.
It doesn’t look like the decoration style of young people nowadays.
If it is a wedding house, it should have been decorated by the previous owner when it was purchased.
After looking around, Jiang Tao saw a bright red color on the wall in front of the entrance door.
Out of curiosity, he walked forward and took a closer look.
I noticed a wedding character dropped on the ground...why is that?
Jiang Tao picked up the word "囍" on the ground and looked at the wall.
I found a trace of double-sided tape on the wall.
I reached out and pressed it, and found that the double-sided tape on the wall was still sticky.
Judging from the location, this should be the place where the wedding character should be pasted.
If this character "囍" is stuck on, it will not fall off by itself due to the stickiness of the double-sided tape.
Perhaps, the word "囍" was never posted at all.
But if that's the case...what emergency happened at that time?
He didn't even have time to put up the wedding character and just left in a hurry?
"Brother Tao, what are you looking at?"
Just as Jiang Tao was thinking, Wang Chengyu came over.
He saw Jiang Tao holding a happy character in his hand and staring blankly, and couldn't help but joked:
"Oh~ Just now I was talking about those random things."
"Could it be that you are jealous and want to get married right away?"
"Go away." Jiang Tao's thoughts were interrupted and he clicked his tongue at Wang Chengyu.
Without thinking any further, he put the wedding character in his hand back to the entrance and said:
"Hurry up and call your Uncle Chen and ask him why we are here."
"Let's finish it sooner rather than later."
As Jiang Tao finished speaking, Wang Chengyu did not delay.
I called Uncle Chen again to let him know that they had entered the house.
This time Wang Chengyu turned on the hands-free mode, and Uncle Chen's voice came from the phone:
"Oh...you're here, right?"
"Oh, last time my son went to clean up the house, he accidentally forgot the videotape, which was going to be used at the wedding."
"You guys help me look for it first, and I'll get it when the time comes."
As Uncle Chen finished speaking, Wang Chengyu was stunned.
"Videotape? About... this?"
After getting an affirmative answer from Uncle Chen, Wang Chengyu turned and looked at Jiang Tao.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Chengyu muttered in confusion:
"I thought it was some kind of hard labor, but it turns out you're just asking me to find a videotape?"
"Uncle Chen said before that he would give me some labor fees. It's not difficult to help."
"I guess... I can only quote the round-trip taxi fare."
Wang Chengyu said with some lack of interest.
However, after hearing the other party's request, Jiang Tao felt confused again.
You know, Uncle Chen called Wang Chengyu several times early this morning.
He even used his relationship with Wang Chengyu's father to find Wang Chengyu.
This is a waste of effort, but in the end all they have to do is ask them to help find a videotape?
Jiang Tao felt confused and puzzled.
Wang Chengyu, who was standing aside, started searching in the house with the intention of finding the item as soon as possible and finishing the task as soon as possible.
But the items in this living room are simple, and the sofa and coffee table are also clean.
One glance was enough to see that there was no trace of the videotape at all.
The two searched the living room for a while, but still found nothing.
Wang Chengyu couldn't help but wonder, "This is weird... Didn't they say his son dropped it accidentally?"
"How come I searched everywhere but couldn't find any videotapes?"
The two of them looked around the living room in confusion. Wang Chengyu put his hands on his hips and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Feeling that waiting like this was not a solution, he looked at the other rooms and said:
"I just don't believe it, Brother Tao, you look in the living room again, I'll go check in another room."
After saying that, Wang Chengyu walked towards one of the closed bedrooms.
After working for a while, Jiang Tao could hear the sound of Wang Chengyu opening the wardrobe.
Then, a surprised voice came from the bedroom.
"Eh??"
Hearing Wang Chengyu's movement, Jiang Tao also hurried over.
Standing at the door of the bedroom, I saw Wang Chengyu kneeling on the ground.
He reached his hand under the bed and seemed to have grabbed something.
Seeing this, Jiang Tao thought he had found the videotape.
But the next second, Wang Chengyu used all his strength to drag something out.
While dragging, he said to Jiang Tao:
"Taozi, there is a box under the bed...it's quite heavy!"
As Wang Chengyu was speaking, there was a sound of friction, and then a cardboard box was completely pulled out by him.
Along with the appearance of the cardboard box, a trail of dust was dragged out on the ground.
It looked like the box had been under the bed for some time.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Tao murmured in confusion:
"Fatty, this box seems to have been untouched for a long time. Didn't your Uncle Chen just buy a wedding house for his son?"
"This is probably something left behind by the previous owner. It probably doesn't have the videotape he's looking for..."
"Hey, who cares."
"Anyway, we've searched everywhere we could, and this box is the only one we just found."
As Wang Chengyu spoke, there was a crackling sound.
The tape on the carton was torn off, and Wang Chengyu opened one side of the carton.
The items revealed inside made both of them freeze in place.
Jiang Tao thought that this was left by the previous landlord and should not contain the videotape that Uncle Chen was looking for.
Wang Chengyu wanted to try his luck and search all these places.
But unexpectedly, both of them guessed wrong.
There is indeed a videotape in this carton...
And there's more than just one disc, it's filled with videotapes!
"Hiss..." Seeing this, Wang Chengyu took a breath of cold air.
I couldn't help but complain to Jiang Tao:
"My goodness, are these videotapes going to be played at the wedding?"
“Look at this number. Even if you don’t eat or drink for a week, you still can’t finish reading it, right?!
