Chapter 72 The End of the World and Drawing Cards 12
The thief threw the knife at the female ghost in white to see if she was pretending to be a real person. As a result, the knife passed through the female ghost in white. The body fell to the ground in the distance with a clang. Obviously, this was a real female ghost, not a disguised one by the hostess to scare him away.
After knowing that this was a real female ghost, the thief was really frightened.
While he was thinking about it, he saw the female ghost stretched out her hand, her nails swollen, her face became ferocious, and she came towards him.
The thief almost fainted from fright, but he knew not to faint here, otherwise what would he do if he was killed by the female ghost? Immediately, he ran to the balcony and prepared to leave.
As a result, the female ghost also came over. The thief was in a panic and did not tighten the rope. With a "ah" sound, he fell from the eighth floor and fell to the ground with a "bang" sound. He died. 's can no longer die.
Linlang saw it but didn't take it seriously. After all, such a person was holding a knife. Obviously, once he encountered the owner of the house, a criminal case would probably occur. Death for such a person is not enough. Cherish.
However, Linlang couldn't let his things stay here, so when he saw that the thief had fallen, he quickly came out and asked Little Bee to scan several surrounding buildings. But someone was observing here and found that there were already people there. He was startled, but before he could run to the window to watch, he quickly threw down the knife, sack, and climbing rope that the other party had dropped on the ground.
Of course, in order to prevent the police from discovering her fingerprints, Linlang always wore gloves when doing these things, and then scanned the fingerprints and footprints left by the thief in her home under the scan of Little Bee. All cleaned up.
In this way, the police probably only found the seventh floor, thinking that the thief's hand slipped while going up from the seventh to the eighth floor and would not find out that it was related to him.
Although even if these traces were not dealt with, there was no evidence to prove that the thief's death was related to her, Linlang still did this in order to save trouble.
As for the thief's scream, even if someone heard it, they probably wouldn't be able to hear what the other person was screaming, let alone where it came from. No one would know that the thief entered their home and then something happened. Because first of all, it was the middle of the night and everyone was asleep. Even if they heard the sound in their sleep, they couldn't distinguish it in the confusion. Find out where it came from, and then understand what it was called; secondly, the thief screamed in her kitchen next to the refrigerator, which is far away from the balcony where sound transmission is convenient, and even if the sound can be transmitted from the kitchen, the people downstairs and upstairs They must be sleeping in the bedroom at this moment, not in the kitchen. They must not be able to hear clearly across the road. The words from the opposite floor cannot be heard clearly from which floor they are coming from.
In this way, even if the police asked, they would not be able to find out the specific location. They would just think that she was scared because her hand slipped and fell, so she screamed and would not know that the other party had entered her home.
Don't worry about Xingxing hearing it. When Linlang was about to scare the thief, she put on soundproof earmuffs for Xingxing. She didn't hear it at all, because the child slept soundly and didn't wake up. The thief stole away, and Linlang took off the soundproof earmuffs. She didn't notice anything at all, and she wasn't afraid that Xingxing would hear the noise and if the police came to ask, she would reveal that something was wrong.
Actually, Linlang also thought about doing nothing and keeping things as they were. Anyway, there is no evidence to prove that she killed the thief, but she was afraid of such trouble, so she did it like this. Who let the thief die? Originally, she only wanted to scare him, but she didn't know that he couldn't help being scared. If he died, there was nothing she could do.
Although the accident happened in the middle of the night, because the thief screamed when he fell, it quickly woke up many people, especially those living on the ground floor. Because such screams can be heard very clearly at night, so they Someone came out to check.
The location where the thief fell was the balcony. Soon the residents on the first floor discovered what seemed to be a person lying on the road outside the balcony, so they couldn't help but scream and called the police.
Soon, other people also discovered the thief. People came out of their homes one after another and gathered downstairs to discuss the matter. Sure enough, just as Linlang thought, they only knew that the thief should have fallen from a height. , but I don’t know which floor he fell from. The police soon arrived. After some investigation, the police found that the traces of the thief's climb ended on the seventh floor - there were thief's footprints on the outer wall from the seventh to the eighth floor, and then disappeared, and they concluded what Linlang expected. In conclusion, I think the thief's hand slipped when he was climbing from the seventh floor to the eighth floor.
But this is just their guess. They still need to check the surveillance nearby and ask the people on the seventh and eighth floors if they can find anything.
At such a high place, no surveillance cameras were visible - this is why Linlang dared to destroy traces of her home, because she discovered it as early as she moved into this community. Although some of the surveillance cameras in the community were directed at high-rise buildings, compared with the surveillance on the road, If she got up, it would be much less. At least it was not facing the upper floors of their building. Otherwise, if surveillance cameras caught the thief entering the eighth floor, she would not dare to do this.
As for asking people, both the people on the seventh floor and the people on the eighth floor said they heard some sounds but found nothing.
They still heard someone making noise below, so they woke up, got up and took a look.
The police did not find anything unusual about the people they asked, so after taking notes, they closed the case on the grounds that the thief accidentally fell down while climbing the wall.
Seeing that the case was successfully concluded, Linlang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that the case would be dragged on forever and she would keep asking people in their building to question her. She was not afraid of trouble or trouble.
It was really unlucky that some kind of thief came and was scared to death in the end. In fact, she just wanted to scare him away. She was afraid that the holographic character was too ordinary and the thief would not leave, so she chose the hologram in the shape of a female ghost. Who knew that such a character could scare people to death?
Although she knew that when the thief took the knife, she was doing harm to the people, but if it caused trouble for herself, it was not what she wanted to see.
So Linlang thought about it for a moment, fearing that something like this would happen again, so she thought that she would have to close the glass at night. Even if she is an expert and bold person and is not afraid of thieves, she still has to be afraid of them coming. , what trouble would it cause if something happened.
The thief incident passed without incident. After that, because Linlang closed the balcony window tightly every night, it never happened again.
Of course, it may also be because the thief circle heard about a thief who climbed a building in their neighborhood and finally fell to death. They are taboo and don’t come to this neighborhood anymore. Anyway, their neighborhood has been quiet recently. Many. You must know that because of the natural disasters in the apocalypse, although the state has stricter control and more cameras are installed, there are still a lot more petty thefts than before the apocalypse. There is no way, once people are hungry, they can do anything. Get it done.
This is a blessing in disguise.
