Chapter 93 The Strange Tenant
"Whenever we are free, let's go to the beach. You can take more bikini photos. I have a friend who likes to see this."
Ma Lu said as he I clicked on the 2.4-second video, but it ended before I could take a closer look.
He could only play it again. This time, Malu kept staring at the second-floor window, and finally saw a corner of the curtain move, being lifted up and quickly lowered.
It wasn’t until the playback speed was adjusted to 0.25 times that I could clearly see what was behind the curtains. They were a pair of blood-red eyes, which were very evil.
"Vampire?"
Ma Lu has already seen werewolves, and he won't be that fussy when meeting a vampire again.
However, Lao Wang said, "No."
"No, but besides vampires, who else has such red eyes?"
"Her eyes are red because of that. Because there is a lot of blood inside, it is most likely caused by lack of sleep.”
"Really or not? How long did you have to sleep without sleeping to get into this horrible state?"
Ma Lu took a closer look again, "Let's put aside the race of that guy. He was obviously at home, and when he heard the doorbell But she didn't even go downstairs to take a look. It felt a bit rude."
"I think the emotion she showed in this video is closer to fear," Lao Wang said.
Ma Lu thought for a while. It was indeed a bit scary for two strangers to knock on the door in the middle of the night. It was not surprising that the guy above was scared.
"Then let's come back during the day tomorrow."
After Malu finished speaking, he didn't want to continue spending time here, and turned around to go home and sleep.
The next day, after Lao Wang prepared the ingredients, the two of them rode a tricycle to the outside of the hot pot restaurant.
Ma Lu noticed that Ms. Chen’s white GLC was parked at the curb again, and Mr. Zhang’s Lexus RX was also there.
This is not a good signal. It is estimated that the two will have further exchanges after returning. Mr. Zhang is far more interested in this store than he showed when he first visited the store last night.
Ma Lu found a place to park the three-wheeler. He originally planned to let Lao Wang go there with him, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
The guy on the second floor was very timid and might have pretended to be dead again when he saw the two people.
Ma Lu once again used the owner's access control to enter the community, came to the iron gate, leaned over and rang the doorbell three times.
The result is the same as before, nothing happens inside.
Ma Lu raised his head and found that even during the day, the bed curtain on the second floor was still not open, completely blocking the inside.
"You still say it's not a vampire?" Ma Lu muttered, scanning the surrounding area, and finally stopped at the trash can.
He walked over, picked out a relatively clean-looking cardboard box, and placed it upside down in front of the iron door, pretending to be a courier package. Then he quickly rang the doorbell twice and ducked into the shadows under the waistline. .
This is a visual blind spot for the windows on the second floor.
Ma Lu stood there for a quarter of an hour, and finally won this round of patience competition.
He saw the iron door quietly open a gap.
Then a small pale hand stretched out from inside and reached for the cardboard box outside.
"Hey, let's talk."
Ma Lu walked out of the shadows.
The person behind the door was startled when he suddenly heard talking. He grabbed the box on the ground and dragged it inside with all his strength.
Probably he wanted to retrieve his express delivery and lock the door before Malu could react, but he misjudged the weight of the box and fell down.
“Are you okay?”
Seeing this, Ma Lu also took two steps forward, stretched out his hand and said.
However, the person on the ground said nothing, turned around and ran up the stairs, knocking his knee because of his panic. "I'm not a bad person, I just want to talk to you about renting out the first floor."
Ma Lu continued, but the man didn't stop and rushed upstairs. Not long after, he was upstairs. There was another banging sound.
Ma Lu walked slowly up the narrow steps to the second floor. There was a door at the end.
Through the door panel, you can hear the rapid breathing and violent heartbeat coming from the other side.
“I don’t know what the relationship is between Ms. Chen and Mr. Zhou and you. As far as I know, they plan to rent out the first floor and open it as a chess and card room.
“You know the chess and card room, right? It's the kind of house where many people play mahjong day and night. It will probably be very noisy and the upstairs is no longer suitable for people to live in. You'd better find another place to live.
"Okay, I've finished what I want to say. If you don't want to see me, then don't."
After saying that, Ma Lu actually turned around and left. It wasn't that he was playing hard to get, although he was very interested in There is indeed some interest in this shop, but it is just a bit of interest, far from the point where it is necessary to rent it.
Since the other party didn't intend to chat with him, he stopped wasting time.
However, Malu only walked halfway, and the door behind him opened another crack.
"You...you also want to rent...a floor?"
The man was stumbling a bit as he spoke, as if the tape had been jammed.
“Yeah.” Malu stopped and said, “Want to chat?”
The man was silent for a few seconds, seemingly engaged in a fierce ideological struggle, and finally said, "Yes, you can... come up."
Ma Lu returned to the second floor.
Before he entered the door, he was shocked by the scene behind the door.
Although it is already ten o'clock in the morning, the living room is as dark as if it has fallen into the night.
As far as the eye could see, there were drink bottles and empty snack bags everywhere on the floor. There was almost nowhere to go. All kinds of clothes and socks, including underwear, were also scattered everywhere.
The coffee table was piled with instant noodles and takeaway lunch boxes, and there were more than one serving. It seemed that all the food from the previous week was here, and no one had taken it away. Some of the food was uneaten and had gone rancid. There was a smell in the room. A strange smell.
Ma Lu looked at the owner of the room -
A girl wearing a wide sweater and pajamas, with pale skin and bloodshot eyes.
The latter was also looking at him at the moment, but when he saw Ma Lu looking over, he immediately turned his head and looked away.
As the owner of this room, he neither asked Ma Lu to sit down on the sofa nor brought out his own drink.
He just stood there, silent, with nowhere to put his little hands.
For a while, he carried it behind his back, and for a while he crossed it in front of him. Then he folded his arm with one hand. After less than two seconds, he lowered it again and became a standing posture, but soon he was unconscious again. Go and grab the messy hair...
Severe social fear?
Ma Lu already knew what she was doing, so he didn't deliberately talk to her. He strode over the pile of garbage in the living room and came to the floor-to-ceiling window.
First, open the tightly covered curtains to disperse the darkness in the room.
But along with the warm sunlight coming in, a scream came from the room.
"Ah! No, hurry up! Close it quickly!" The girl covered her blood-red eyes and said in pain.
Although Malu has never encountered a real vampire, it is expected that their reaction when facing strong light is nothing more than this.
The girl in front of me must have lived in a dark environment for too long, and her eyes are now a little afraid of light.
Ma Lu did not continue to stimulate her. After opening the window for some air, he closed the curtains again, leaving only a small crack to make the living room less dark.
Thanks to Vanilla Fairy Sword, Lin Suwu, Heiyuan Liu and other children's boots for their rewards~
