Could it be that Xu Meng and the others took it away?
Could they have gone to the fourth floor to find any clues?
Wu Zhouzheng had some jealousy on his face, but after hearing that the two people above him were already suspicious, his jealousy immediately turned into ridicule.
Even thinking that Li Gui, who was against him, would be discovered by these two murderers, he felt a little gloating on his face.
However, after all, he thought of Xu Meng's seductive figure. The schadenfreude didn't last long, and he patted Liang Chao on the back in front of him.
"Send a message to Xu Meng and ask her to hide quickly. They were discovered by the landlord."
nodded.
Liang Chao may have felt scared, so he didn't speak. He just turned around silently and took out his mobile phone from his arms.
When he stood behind Wu Zhouzheng, he carefully blocked the light from his mobile phone with his clothes.
The conversation between the two people upstairs continued.
"I'm going back to look for it. Just in case, you don't want to go up there tonight."
"Why don't you go up? I haven't dealt with that bitch for several days. I just lost money today and I feel unhappy. Let's go up and vent."
"What if my voice is heard?!"
"That's none of my business. It's up to you to find a way to deal with it. If it's over, let's do it together."
"......"
"Hehe, don't worry, I'll gag her tonight. You installed soundproof cotton in that place, so no one will find her."
"Better so."
The conversation seemed to be over, and then Wu Zhouzheng heard the sound of footsteps. He quickly reminded Liang Chao to stop texting, pushed him, and ran deeper into the corridor.
The one above has come down.
It is definitely too late to open the door and go in. If the door is opened at this time, not only the sound will be heard, but also the light in the room will be detected.
Can only hide in the dark.
"Do not talk....."
He took Liang Chao and squatted in the deepest corner of the corridor.
In a burst of flashlight light at the top of the stairs, Wu Zhouzheng saw a hunched figure walking down with a hammer in his hand.
Apparently, it was the landlord whom I met before.
His teeth chattered uncontrollably. Wu Zhouzheng had never felt so close to death.
As long as at this moment, any hunchbacked figure suddenly turns around and shines a flashlight into the corridor on the second floor, he and Liang Chao will definitely be discovered.
By then, I'm afraid both of them will die here.
Wu Zhouzheng didn't dare to speak, and he huddled tightly in a corner.
Under the cold surrounding, it seemed that even the flowing blood had frozen for a moment.
He really wanted to hide behind Liang Chao, so that at least when the landlord discovered the two of them, Liang Chao's life would be saved, and he would have a chance to escape and call for help.
But he didn't dare to move now, for fear that the landlord at the entrance of the corridor would hear him if he made the slightest sound.
With his face pale, he could only open his eyes wide and stare at the landlord in front of him.
Heads are turned, heads are turned! ! !
Behind the flashlight light, although it was blurry, Wu Zhouzheng could see that the strange landlord suddenly stopped when he reached the second floor.
He slowly turned his head and looked into the corridor.
Although it was pitch black, in that motionless sight, Wu Zhouzheng always felt that he and Liang Chao had been discovered.
Silence spreads in the dead silence.
He covered his mouth tightly, not daring to make a sound.
Da~da~da~da~
Fortunately, the landlord only stopped at the stairwell of the second floor for a moment and did not use the flashlight to look deeper into the second floor.
Finally, with a thoughtful expression, he stepped forward.
.......
"Huh... He and the man who just spoke must be the murderer. It turns out that there was more than one person involved in the arson case."
Until there was silence for more than ten seconds in the darkness.
Wu Zhouzheng slowly put down the hand covering his mouth. He couldn't help but swallow, and at the same time he realized that at some point, his back had been quietly wet with sweat.
"Liang Chao, you call the police first and let the police come and deal with this."
Looking back, he found that Liang Chao also lowered his head and huddled up, obviously also very frightened.
Wu Zhouzheng took a breath and quickly ordered him to say:
"Call the police now?"
After a long time, the thin Liang Chao raised his head. Compared to the group leader Wu Zhouzheng, although his face was pale, he seemed to be much calmer.
"What if no evidence is found or it disturbs Xu Meng and the others' investigation?"
Hearing this, Wu Zhouzheng's face flashed with hesitation.
It wasn't that he would be so kind and considerate of those people, but it suddenly occurred to him that if he called the police now, he wouldn't be able to hit the man named Li Gui hard in the face.
If Li Gui and the others had gained something by then, and he just called the police, wouldn't it be even more ridiculous?
"You're right, we'd better go to the fourth floor to investigate first."
I didn't see Liang Chao's face clearly.
Wu Zhouzheng was so scared that he didn't even dare to turn on the light. He stood up slowly, pressed his cell phone against the wall, and walked towards the stairs.
The corridor was very quiet.
In the darkness, what is more worrying than the doors is the corner of the stairs.
Will there be a dark figure waiting for the two of them to fall into a trap?
"It seems...it's okay..."
Walk to the end of the corridor until Wu Zhou is looking up the stairs.
After making sure that no one was there, he dared to turn around and walk up against the wall.
It was extremely quiet up there, with no sounds of screaming or fighting. It was estimated that Li Gui and the other three were not on the fourth floor.
Otherwise, he would have been discovered by another man who just went upstairs.
This made Wu Zhouzheng feel scared and slightly excited.
Does this mean that if they find nothing on the other side, if the two of them go to the fourth floor to investigate and find out what the landlord and the man are doing, they can take a big step ahead, and then call the police without doing anything.
After all, it seemed that those three people didn't even go up to the fourth floor.
Whatever he investigates, it's better than them.
And when the time comes, he will see what kind of expression that self-righteous man has in front of Xu Meng.
It seems that he has seen Li Gui shrinking in front of him.
For a moment, Wu Zhouzheng's timidity faded by more than half. He leaned against the wall and walked towards the higher level of the third floor.
In the corridor, the mysterious man's voice could no longer be heard.
There was no other sound.
Chapter 1 Misunderstanding? (Second update)
"Don't make any noise."
He could already see the closed iron door on the fourth floor stairway. Wu Zhouzheng kept his eyes still, and after muttering something in a low voice, he touched it first, regardless of Liang Chao's reaction.
Eyes wide open, he didn't dare turn on the light.
Looking into the corridor through the iron fence.
It was pitch black, and no matter how wide he opened his eyes, he couldn't see if there was anyone else in the corridor.
"It should be fine."
This sentence seemed to be said to Liang Chao, and it seemed to be said to himself. In short, Wu Zhouzheng squatted in front of the iron gate for more than ten seconds.
Only when he was sure there was no one around did he dare to take out his cell phone, and then looked inside with the faint light from the screen.
No one...really no one.
Although it was weak, with this faint light, Wu Zhouzheng was at least certain that there was no figure waiting for him in front of the iron door. The entire fourth floor had clean walls and only a thin layer of lime on the floor.
"The door is unlocked..."
The lock on the iron door was probably opened by the mysterious man just now.
Now it hangs on the keychain, shaking.
"You, go and open the door."
A little afraid that opening the door would make a loud noise and attract the attention of the man on the fourth floor. Wu Zhouzheng looked at the yellow lock. After hesitating for a long time, he motioned for Liang Chao to come forward and he hid behind.
The former did not refute anything, nor did he refuse.
Amid Wu Zhouzheng's nervousness and fear and the dim light of his mobile phone screen, he pushed open the iron door without any hesitation.
Zhizhi~
The rusty iron shaft rotated, making a harsh sound that could not be concealed on the quiet floor.
Wu Zhouzheng's body tensed up, and he almost instinctively wanted to turn around and run away.
Only after he realized that Liang Chao had already walked in and there seemed to be no danger, did he dare to follow him.
"Be careful and don't walk so fast."
I feel a little embarrassed for my timid performance.
After seeing Liang Chao squatting in the corner, Wu Zhouzheng quickly followed him.
He even stood in front of him.
It was pitch dark in the corridor, and it was obviously impossible to see clearly what was deep in the corridor with the weak light from the mobile phone screen.
But when Wu Zhouzheng turned on the flashlight mode that came with his phone, he was afraid that the bright light would attract unnecessary attention.
He had no choice but to squat down.
Leaning against the corner, he groped forward a little bit.
In order to prevent Liang Chao from looking down on him, he even said defensively:
"Be cautious. Turning on a flashlight at this time is undoubtedly a dead end."
Liang Chao didn't speak behind him.
Since the two came out of the room, Liang Chao seemed to have said very few words.
However, after spending a few hours together, Wu Zhouzheng also knew the character of this network administrator.
So it doesn't feel strange.
Two men in their prime, using an awkward posture.
Moving slowly in tandem.
Fortunately, there are not many rooms on the entire fourth floor. It seems that there are only six rooms on the left and right sides together.
"This door seems to be open."
He didn't know how long he had been walking like this. It wasn't until his legs felt a little numb that Wu Zhouzheng discovered that a door on the left at the deepest point of the corridor was ajar.
It's not closed.
In the dark corridor, there seemed to be a faint light seeping in from somewhere, reflecting the outline of the door.
