Of course, the villa was not that great. It was just a standalone building, but it would have cost at least six or seven million based on the previous housing prices in Hedong City. That was enough to keep an ordinary person like Luo Yuan out of the house.
There was a thick layer of dust at the entrance of the villa, leaving clear footprints. Apparently, the owner had not been out for a long time.
Luo Yuan gestured for Huang Jiahui to knock on the door.
Women were born with a delicate aura, so people were much less wary of women than men. They were more suitable for communication.
Huang Jiahui understood and knocked on the door. She shouted a few times, but there was no response.
"Could it be empty?" Huang Jiahui asked.
"It's possible!" Luo Yuan leaned against the door and listened for a while, but he did not hear anything. He turned to Wang Shishi and said, "Shishi, can you see if you can open the door?"
"Brother Luo, let me try!" Wang Shishi said softly.
Ever since the fire, Wang Shishi had been in a state of excitement, except for the fact that she was not used to seeing dead people. It was not because she had discovered that her superpower was strong, but because she felt that she was finally useful. From clearing the smoke at the beginning, to blocking the fire, and now, to unlocking the door. She was always able to help Brother Luo at the most crucial moment. This made her feel like she was being valued. She was no longer dispensable.
After releasing his telekinesis, the door lock clicked a few times and the door slowly opened. A disgusting stench of corpses spread out from the door.
Luo Yuan covered his nose and walked in first. Sometimes it was not a good thing to be too sensitive. Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi looked fine, but he felt disgusted.
"There's really no one here. There's still dust on the floor," Huang Jiahui said.
"Doesn't that mean that this villa is ours?" Wang Shishi said excitedly. She looked left and right excitedly, not caring if it was dirty. She sat on the leather sofa in the living room and bounced up and down.
"It's not ours. If the owner comes, we'll have to leave!" Huang Jiahui said with a smile. She was also very satisfied with the house.
"If they don't live in such a good house, the owner must have met with an accident. Don't you think so, Brother Luo?"
"An accident did happen, but I'm afraid the corpse is still here!" Luo Yuan nodded. He was afraid that something might happen if he left, so he said, "Shishi and Jiahui stay here, I'll go look for them."
Both of them were startled.
Wang Shishi's smile froze and her face turned pale. She was most afraid of ghosts and corpses.
"Could he have been bitten by a mosquito?" Huang Jiahui said worriedly, "Be careful."
Luo Yuan nodded, picked up his Zhanmadao and walked to another room. Luo Yuan's Sense of Perception had reached a radius of 10 meters. The total area of the villa was about 200 square meters, so basically, everything was within his Sense of Perception. However, the obstruction of the wall greatly weakened the strength of his perception. Other than the room that he could "see" clearly, the other places were very blurry. He needed to confirm one by one.
There were two bedrooms, a kitchen, and two bathrooms on the first floor. Luo Yuan had basically walked through the whole floor, but he did not find any. He went to the second floor, but still did not find anything. Finally, Luo Yuan went to the attic to have a look. Other than a pile of groceries, there was no sign of a corpse.
He was confused. The faint smell of a corpse could not be hidden from her. There was definitely a corpse here, but he could not find it. Luo Yuan had no choice but to go back to the living room.
"Why didn't you find it?" Huang Jiahui asked.
"I've searched all the rooms, but I can't find it. I don't know where it is hidden." Luo Yuan shook his head, "But the smell of a corpse can't be hidden from me. It must be here."
Huang Jiahui knew that Luo Yuan was an evolved person and had some strange abilities, so she did not suspect anything. Although he didn't smell anything strange, the thought of sleeping in the same house with a corpse sent chills down his spine. It was a little creepy.
Suddenly, she thought of something and said, "I heard that many rich people like to build basements in their villas. Do you think there's one here?"
Luo Yuan suddenly realized that the penetrative ability of his Sensory Perception was not very good. As long as there was a wall blocking his vision, the scene behind him would be very blurry. As for the underground, he could only penetrate 50 centimeters before it was completely dark. Therefore, he would not pay attention to the underground unless he was paying attention.
As he was about to look for the hidden basement, Huang Jiahui pulled him back and whispered, "That strange woman has been sitting at the door and crying. She looks so pitiful. Should we let her in?"
"This woman was in cahoots with those bad guys. Brother Luo killed them, so it's very likely that he still hates us and wants to take revenge!" Wang Shishi frowned and said worriedly, "How can we let her in? Should we chase her away?"
He did not expect her to stick to them like candy. It was not that he did not want to give her some food, but he really did not want to let this unknown woman in. He frowned and said, "Don't worry about her. She'll leave when it gets dark."
Huang Jiahui was a little confused. The woman in front of her could not even walk properly and was crying pitifully. How could she still want to take revenge? However, since both of them had said so, Huang Jiahui, who had become less assertive after following Luo Yuan, gave up on the idea of letting her in.
Luo Yuan walked around the first floor again. He walked through the living room, bedroom, and kitchen, but he found nothing. Even the bottom of the concrete was completely dark. The normal concrete in the basement did not have any defensive function, so it was not more than 50 centimeters deep. His 12-point Sensory Perception was enough to sense the situation underground. Obviously, this basement was much deeper than he had imagined.
There was only the bathroom left. Luo Yuan frowned as he walked into the bathroom. Due to the lack of ventilation for a long time, there was a very strong and pungent smell in the bathroom. After taking a closer look, he realized that the stench of corpses was much stronger than in other places. He had not noticed it before because it had been covered by the smell of the fragrance.
His heart skipped a beat. It seemed like this was the place.
The bathroom was divided into two compartments using frosted glass. The outer compartment was a toilet bowl, a dressing table, and a full-length mirror the size of a wall. The inner compartment was a small bathtub that was drained of water, and the walls were decorated with several oil paintings of human art.
Luo Yuan noticed that the right side of the bathtub was a little wide. It was about 1.2 meters wide.
He felt suspicious and tried to sense it carefully. Suddenly, he realized that the inside of the bathtub was empty. The wardrobe was just a cover, and there was a dark space behind it.
Finally, he found it!
Luo Yuan was happy. He quickly walked over and opened the wardrobe. It was empty.
Luo Yuan took a look and realized that the wardrobe was not seamless. There was a gap between the bottom panels. He tried to push the panel at the bottom and heard a cracking sound. The panel was pushed open like a door, revealing a flight of stairs that led into the darkness. At the same time, a strong stench of a corpse assaulted his nostrils.
His heart was beating fast. He was excited to find out more about the place.
The wardrobe was only 1.5 meters tall. Luo Yuan crouched down and crawled into it. The stairs were narrow and steep. He followed the stairs for more than 10 steps and reached the end. There was a space that was about 10 square meters below him.
It was so dark that he could not even see his fingers in front of him. However, it was not a hindrance to Luo Yuan's senses. It was a storage room filled with all kinds of supplies. There were piles of rice, flour, compressed biscuits, canned food, cooking oil, clothes, medicine, a few barrels of diesel, and even a diesel generator. There was also a safe on the wall. He had no idea what was in it.
Luo Yuan glanced at it and was overjoyed. Obviously, the owner of the house had stored a lot of these supplies when the crisis broke out. The rich valued their lives more than the ordinary people. When the ordinary people were still ignorant, the rich had already prepared a lot to survive the crisis.
Luo Yuan did not take a closer look. His priority was to find the corpses. He walked around the pile of food and walked inside.
Even though he was prepared, he was still shocked by the scene in front of him. The ground was covered with a pile of bones. These bones had been piled up by someone. The white bones were a little scary. Judging from the size of the skulls, there should be as many as four skeletons.
What surprised him even more was that there was a complete corpse next to the skeletons. In fact, he could not tell whether it was a corpse or not. Other than the scary green face and tattered clothes, there was no sign of decomposition on the body.
He focused and sensed for a while. His heart skipped a beat. The corpse was still breathing.
"What the hell!" Luo Yuan was shocked. He held the handle of his knife tightly with his right hand and stared at the dying person. The scene was too strange. The white bones were piled up in a pile. Obviously, they had died naturally. Luo Yuan's first thought was that there was a mutated beast hiding there. He carefully sensed the direction. Other than the corpse, there was nothing else that looked like a living creature.
The atmosphere in the basement suddenly became strange.
He hesitated for a moment and then walked over. Suddenly, he stopped. The person seemed to have been stimulated. His breathing became rapid and his heart started beating violently. Then, his limbs twitched and his eyelids twitched a few times. Suddenly, he opened his eyes.
It was a pair of extremely horrifying eyes that no longer had any characteristics of a living person. His pupils were extremely dilated and occupied the entire eyeball. There was almost no white left in his eyes, and it made one's hair stand on end. His movements were very stiff and mechanical, like a marionette. He struggled fiercely, and after a while, he stood up shakily.
There was a suppressed sound coming from deep in his throat. His mouth was wide open, revealing his yellow teeth. Turbid and smelly saliva kept dripping from his mouth. It looked extremely disgusting.
"What is this thing?" Luo Yuan looked serious. He was sure that this was no longer a human.
He walked towards Luo Yuan step by step. After a few steps, his movements became more agile. When he was two meters away from Luo Yuan, he was already more agile than a normal person. He growled and pounced on Luo Yuan like a beast.
