Chapter 348 Fate

It looks safe from the name.

"Ahem" the old man coughed violently a few times, and the fat man was worried that he would cough out his lungs.

Limping to the table, the old man fumbled to open the drawer, then grabbed something and threw it on the table with a bang.

"You can divide it among yourselves. There are only so many rooms. Just live in whatever you can. After all, the price is here." Taking advantage of the coughing interval, the old man said unceremoniously.

He leaned on his crutches and moved away crookedly.

There were more than a dozen keys on the glass table, which looked very old. They should be matched with very old locks.

There was a piece of white tape on the back of each key, and the house number was written on it with a ballpoint pen.

Picking up the key, Liu Guo frowned and looked up and asked, "What does this mean?"

The tape behind this key said 2803.

But no matter how you look at it, the apartment building they are in doesn't look like it has 28 floors.

The old man held a large teacup in one hand, and his one eye swept across Liu Guo's face. He said hoarsely, "It's Room 803, Building 2."

"Building 2?" The fat man asked in surprise.

The old man narrowed his one eye slightly, and a light flashed in his eyes. "There are three buildings in Ping'an Apartment, No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3." He paused, turned his ugly lips, and said, "You live separately."

Jiao Tailang pursed his lips, looked at the old man, and asked tentatively, "We are all friends and have a good relationship. Do you think we can..."

"No. Before he finished speaking, the old man interrupted him with an impatient attitude, "There are no empty rooms. If you want to live here, live here. If you don't want to live here, leave."

Naturally, no one would care about an NPC who was not sure whether he was a human or a ghost. Everyone quickly divided the keys, and the problem also appeared at this time.

"Old man." Wei Jinting asked sideways, "Why are there only 11 keys? "

"Hiss——, ha——" The old man took a big teacup, drank a sip of steaming tea, and said without raising his head: "If it's not enough, go to the drawer yourself."

This is obviously not a good choice. No one moved. At this moment, except for the man named Wu who did not have a key, the others all held a key in their hands.

Even the people around him unconsciously distanced themselves from him, as if they were worried that he would snatch it.

Wu walked straight over, then took out a key from the drawer, turned around and walked back, and the half of his face that was exposed was calm as if nothing had happened.

Chu Jiu secretly looked at his face, but he was wearing a hat with the brim pressed down very low, and the fine bangs on his forehead covered his eyes.

"Is there anything else you need to explain?" Before leaving, Chen Yi asked a very important question, "For example, whether we can leave the room and the range of activities"

"This is your business." The old man laughed sinisterly twice, "But I suggest not to hang out outside at night.

"Will something bad happen tonight?" Yulan swallowed her saliva and asked in a low voice.

"Da!"

"Da!"

Almost instantly, the old man, leaning on his crutches, stepped in front of Yulan in a few steps, and put his ugly face close to her, with one eye full of resentment.

"Who?" The old man roared in a low voice, "Who told you that something bad happened in Ping'an Apartment?! Who?!"

Yulan was shocked by this scene, and after reacting, she almost collapsed on the ground. No one expected that the old man would react so strongly.

"No" Yulan was so scared that she almost cried, "No, no one"

"It's all rumors!"

"Rumors!!"

"These damn bitches!"

The old man's expression was very exaggerated, and the corners of his eyes seemed to be cracked, and bloodshot appeared faintly on his one eye.

Seeing this, Liu Guojiao and Tailang immediately pulled Yulan away, and then a group of people hurriedly left the old man's room and ran back to their previous position along the corridor.

"Are you okay?" Chu Jiu comforted.

Yulan couldn't stop panting, and it took her a long time to recover. She hurriedly thanked everyone.

Rubbing the key in her hand, Lu Huaxu, wearing black stockings, said: "I am in Building 3, this is Building 1, who will go to Building 3 with me?"

Not far from the opposite side of the hall is the elevator, and there is a clear blue sign next to the elevator with 1.

This is Building 1.

"Me."

"And me."

Several people came out, and their keys all started with 3. Wu, who went to get the key last, also came out.

Jiang Cheng and Fatty were both in Building 1, so they didn't need to move.

Now the sky outside was getting darker and darker. People living in Buildings 2 and 3 said hello and left. After all, if they waited until it was completely dark, they didn't know what would happen.

From the old man's behavior, it was clear that this Ping'an Apartment must not be safe.

The fat man turned around and wanted to say something to the doctor, but found that the doctor huddled behind him, not saying a word, and was as obedient as a different person.

He looked around curiously. Chu Jiu, who looked like a student, stood 3 meters away. Next to her was a tall woman.

Under the black-framed glasses, the woman's eyes were cold and she was looking at the fat man.

After a moment——

"Have we met somewhere before?" the woman named Xu Yi asked.

The fat man was stunned for a moment, "We?" He looked at Xu Yi and replied: "No, no."

"I didn't ask you, I was talking about the one behind you."

"No!" Jiang Cheng immediately denied, "Beautiful lady, we have never met before. If you think you look familiar, then we probably have had spiritual communication."

Xu Yi: "Don't make eye contact, look at me when you talk."

Jiang Cheng licked his lips, and his cross-eyed eyes slowly returned to normal.

"It's you!" Xu Yi's eyes suddenly became fierce.

"No, no, no," Jiang Cheng immediately waved his hand, "It's not me."

The fat man rarely saw the doctor so embarrassed in front of a woman, and couldn't help but be curious about the story between the two. It seems that this origin is not shallow.

Fate!

"Last time in the butterfly orchid, you dared to play tricks on me!" Xu Yi seemed to have forgotten that this was a nightmare, and subconsciously touched her waist with her hand, as if to take out equipment.

But she touched nothing, handcuffs and other things, could not be brought into the nightmare.

After this, the fat man also understood the general situation.

It turned out that Xu Yi led the team to crack down on prostitution before, but she got separated from her teammates while chasing the suspect, and accidentally broke into a very hidden high-end private room, but before she could take out her weapon, she found that it had been controlled.

A row of disheveled men and women squatted in the corner, and a man in police uniform was lecturing them.

After seeing someone rushing in, the man in police uniform asked Xu Yi to keep an eye on the suspect first and go back to call for help.

Because it was too dark and it was a joint operation of multiple police forces, Xu Yi subconsciously thought that the other party was a police officer from another team.

She agreed immediately.

But after waiting for a long time, the helper did not come, but the captain called her. The captain asked her where she had been, and they were all holding people and preparing to withdraw.
