  Chapter 21 The Old Woman Knocking on the Door (2)

   Unfortunately, the voice-activated lights outside the corridor suddenly went out the moment Yan Junze opened the door.

  After opening the door, a cool breath permeated in, and Yan Junze was still lying on the "mobile air conditioner" Ke'er.

  Even though he was wearing a thick sweater, he couldn't help shivering.

Taking a closer look, a small figure was standing in front of the door, about 1.5 meters tall. Through the moonlight, one could see that the door knocker was indeed an old woman, with neat shoulder-length short hair, wearing a dark blue thin Cotton clothes, black trousers, and a pair of brown cotton shoes on the feet.

   But the corridor was dark outside, there was no sound, and the voice-activated light did not turn on.

  Yan Junze didn't dare to make a sound, and the old woman in front of her was silent, her facial contours were blurred, and she seemed to be staring straight at herself.

  Yan Junze cleared his throat and was about to speak in a low voice when the old woman suddenly turned around and faced the corridor, her body grew a little taller at this moment, and she walked to the other end of the corridor.

  Yan Junze swallowed the words in his throat. After opening the door, the old woman seemed to want to follow her.

  No one spoke, Yan Junze stepped out and closed the door gently behind him.

  As the old woman moved and the door slammed slightly, the voice-activated light turned on again. This time, Yan Junze finally saw the old woman's back clearly, but after seeing clearly, the hair on his back instantly stood on end.

  I saw that the old woman walking in front was walking on tiptoes. No wonder she felt that her body was a little taller when walking, and the reason why she kept walking out of that kind of fragmented steps.

  After seeing clearly, Yan Junze paused involuntarily.

  But the old woman didn't stop, she went straight to the stairs and started to walk upstairs.

  Yan Junze took a deep breath, remembered that he was still taking pictures, and then said softly: "This old woman is surnamed Ren, and she seems to live upstairs in my house. I don't know what she wants to do. I am going to follow her to see."

  He underestimated the speed of Granny Ren's going up the stairs. Facts have proved that the old woman on tiptoe climbed the stairs faster, and she disappeared at the corner of the stairs in just one sentence.

  Yan Junze hurriedly followed, took a few steps up the stairs, and when he was at the corner, he involuntarily glanced at the No. 5 building next door.

   I don’t know if the woman with the back is standing quietly in a corner of Building 5 right now.

  With no time to think about it, Yan Junze climbed up to the fifth floor.

  My home is on the fourth floor, while Granny Ren is on the fifth floor. According to the mission reminder after the latest detection, Granny Ren lives in Room 503.

  When Yan Junze walked into the corridor, he just saw the figure of Granny Ren on tiptoe turning in front of a door.

He trotted for a few steps. When he passed rooms 501 and 502, he paid special attention to the conditions of these two households. He found that the doors of these two households had accumulated dust, and he could leave clear footprints when he walked by himself. The time is gone.

   It is conceivable that the two families are very close to Room 503. If Granny Ren came to knock on the door at two o'clock in the middle of the night every day, no one would want to live here.

  As a result, after the two families moved out, Granny Ren changed the person to knock on the door to downstairs, which was Yan Junze's home.

   Quickened his pace again, and came to the door that the figure of Granny Ren walked in.

  The door is open, and the number plate next to it says 503. It is not a mistake, but there is no light in the room, and the blurred outline of the furniture can be seen clearly only by the moonlight projected from outside the room.

  Yan Junze stood in front of the door, opened his eyes wide open but couldn't see Granny Ren's whereabouts.

   But Ke'er is still lying on her back until now, even after seeing Granny Ren, she has no intention of leaving Yan Junze, which is completely different from the last time she encountered a possessed spirit.

   At the moment she was motionless, as if asleep.

"By the way, I let you watch every time I wash my hair. If there is any accident later, you'd better block it for me. At worst, I will wash my hair for ten minutes longer next time, so that you can watch it once." Yan Junze seemed to be Talk to yourself.

   After saying that, he reached out and groped for the wall near the door, and quickly found the light switch, but there was no response after pressing it.

   Tried several times, maybe the house has been cut off.

  Yan Junze had a guess that he didn't want to believe. According to the mission prompt, Granny Ren should live here alone, and she might have died in the house long ago.

   I don't know why, her family has not contacted her, maybe they don't know that the old woman has been dead for a long time.

   After cheering up in front of the door, Yan Junze turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, so that he could not only see it, but also take pictures. Although the image quality would definitely be poor, there was no other way.

  After turning on the flashlight, he stepped into Room 503, just in time to see the back of Granny Ren walking from the living room into the bedroom inside, with a hunched body, still standing on tiptoe.

  In this strange environment, this picture reveals a sense of horror that seeps into the bone marrow.

   "I've been here for so long, and I'm still standing there, as if I didn't know to go into the bedroom to look around."

  Yan Junze froze in the living room and did not follow for a while.

  By the light of the flashlight, I first looked at the furnishings in the living room to get familiar with the surrounding environment.

  An old man living alone, the sanitation in his home was clean, but now in this living room, whether it is the TV cabinet, coffee table, sofa or floor, all are covered with a layer of fine dust.

   But although there is dust, the arrangement is still very neat.

  After taking a general look at the living room environment, Yan Junze learned about the location of the bathroom, kitchen and another smaller bedroom before walking to the door of the master bedroom.

  By using the light, I observed the furnishings in the master bedroom.

  One bed, one desk, one chair, two wardrobes, nothing left.

Yan Junze didn't see Granny Ren who just came in, stood at the door and looked around, and even carefully looked behind the door through the crack of the opened door, making sure that after she went in later, Granny Ren would not close the door intimately for herself. door-to-door.

   Later, he saw a pair of familiar brown cotton shoes beside the bed. These shoes were neatly placed, so that the person on the bed could put them on smoothly when getting out of bed.

   Then he glanced at the bed in the room, and after careful identification, he saw that there seemed to be a person lying under the quilt.

   It is understandable that Granny Ren is not tall. If the quilt is a little thicker, it is really not easy to find it if you don’t look carefully while lying down like this.

  At this moment, Yan Junze was sure that the body lying on the bed was definitely Granny Ren's body.

  It seems that Granny Ren did not fall to her death at home, nor did she die in other accidents, but most likely died in her sleep.

   Stepping into the master bedroom, Yan Junze came to the bed cautiously. Yan Junze found that Granny Ren was not lying on her back, but lying on her side, facing inside and her back to herself.

   Oddly enough, he couldn't smell a stink.

   It stands to reason that Granny Ren has been dead for so long, it is impossible for her body not to rot, and it is impossible not to emit a rancid smell.

  I can't figure it out, Yan Junze is not going to think about it any more, he tried to say: "Grandma Ren, I probably know your last wish. You want to see your family, and I will find a way to inform them."

  Paused, remembered the background introduction of the mission, and said: "Especially your grandson Yu Xiaochang, I will definitely ask your family members to bring him here so that you can meet him."

  【The old woman knocking on the door in the middle of the night has triggered a new branch task. 】

   As soon as the words were finished, a reminder suddenly jumped out of the time-space map in my mind.

   Looking for another wave of recommendation tickets, thank you all the judges!
