Sunset Apartments.
It was located in the eastern district of Haig City, in an old residential area.
Tong Mu had already planned to use a fake identity, but the security guard did not even ask. He squatted at the side and smoked, allowing a stranger like him to come and go.
"Sunset Apartments, found it!"
He looked at the dilapidated apartment building in front of him, nodded, and walked in.
Not long after he entered, a group of staff from the Secret Service arrived in a hurry.
"The area is too big, but we've finally confirmed that the source of the strangeness is in this apartment!"
Jarvis, Linda, and Da Kun walked over side by side. "From now on, lock down the area. Don't let anyone in or out!"
"Found it, the apartment documents! This apartment was built 20 years ago, and there are currently 16 residents... "
A staff in black quickly ran over with a stack of documents.
"So few?"
Jarvis frowned. "Did something happen before?"
"Yes, there are some bad rumors in the apartment, so recently, the residents have moved out... But in this area, such things are too common..."
The staff bowed and said.
"Sigh..."
Linda sighed. "There have been too many strange cases recently... It's too busy, and some small hidden dangers have been overlooked."
"What kind of bad rumors?"
Da Kun was more concerned about other aspects.
The strange pattern might be hidden in such inconspicuous small details.
"It's said that some residents have disappeared for no reason... But some people suspect that they moved out to avoid rent..." the staff replied, wiping his sweat.
After understanding the situation, Jarvis led Linda and Da Kun into Sunset Apartments.
The corridor was narrow, and there were many things piled up, making it seem very isolated.
There were disgusting yellow stains on the walls, as if no one had cleaned it for a long time.
The surroundings were very dark, and the red wooden doors were tightly shut. No one knew what was hidden inside.
Jarvis looked at his black gloves.
This was a strange item that he controlled. It was called the 'Silencer'. Apart from being able to cast curses, it could also create an area of silence.
It had a good restraining effect on strange things that could be transmitted through sound and pollution.
"How do we do it?"
Linda asked.
"Search the houses one by one," Jarvis said in a low voice.
Javi's voice was low. At this moment, he especially missed Ivy's ability.
…
Tong Mu went up to the fifth floor in one breath. His face was not red, and he was not out of breath. He showed the health and vigor of a young man.
He had a clear goal, so he skipped the inspection process.
Moreover, he didn't seem to have triggered any strange or cursed things along the way.
Needless to say, this kid's luck was very good.
In other words, the ignorant were fearless. He had never heard of the term 'uncanny' before. Of course, he did not know how terrifying the true uncanny was.
Walking past a door, he looked at the nameplate. It was 501!
The next two rooms were also skipped by him. After a few steps, he stood in front of Room 504.
"What should we do next?"
He took out his notebook and held it in his hand. Feeling more confident, he began to knock on the door.
Dong dong!
Dong dong!
A low knock on the door echoed in the corridor.
No response.
Tong Mu frowned and continued to knock on the door.
There was a cracking sound.
At this time, the opposite door was opened, and an old man poked his head out. He said impatiently, "Young man, what are you doing?"
"I … I'm looking for someone. He lives here."
Tong Mu took out the lie that she had prepared beforehand.
"Are you kidding me? How can I not know? This room is empty. There's no one living in it! "The old man's expression immediately became vigilant and suspicious." Who are you? "
From the looks of it, he seemed to think that Tong Mu was a thief.
"I …"
Tong Mu's expression was somewhat bitter. Should he tell the old man that he was an emissary of justice who was here to deal with the evil spirit?
"Old man, who is it?"
At this moment, another old granny walked out.
"A young man …" the old man replied casually.
However, Tong Mu felt every pore on his body tighten. His mind was blank as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer.
This old granny was shockingly similar to the figure he had seen that night.
"Notebook!"
He gripped the notebook in his hand tightly, but he realized that he did not release his aura to chase the old granny away like before.
"You're … a living person?"
Tong Mu cried out involuntarily.
"What are you talking about?" The old man was unhappy and almost hit him.
"Sorry, sorry!"
Tong Mu hurriedly apologized.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice coming from Room 504 behind him.
At first, it was a rustling sound, as if someone was debugging a radio station.
Then, it turned into a collection of all kinds of noises. It was filled with a strange and indescribable feeling.
Suddenly, a chill came from the notebook, jolting him awake.
At this moment, Tong Mu was shocked to discover that the eyes of the old man and old granny opposite him had suddenly emitted a green light.
Their expressions were wooden, and their green eyes were staring at him. It was as if he had returned to the nightmare that night!
"This … people who hear that noise will be infected and turn into zombies or something like that?"
Tong Mu's mind raced. "Why am I fine? Is it because of the notebook in my hand? "
However, at this moment, the two people opposite him had already walked toward him.
Tong Mu gritted his teeth and slammed into the door of Room 504 behind him.
Bang!
A loud sound echoed in the apartment building.
Jia Wei, who had just checked the third floor, suddenly raised his head. "Something's wrong!"
The three of them also heard the strange noise and took out their strange items to block it.
At this moment, the door of the apartment opened, and figures with stiff movements and green eyes walked out.
Jia Wei did not hesitate. He immediately used the strange item on his right hand and clenched the black boxing glove.
Silence!
Dead silence!
It was like a black and white silent film. Everything around them was still operating, but the 'sound' had disappeared.
The green-eyed figures also stopped moving, as if they were human statues.
"As expected … the sound is the key!" Linda said loudly, but Da Quin and Jia Wei could only watch her lips open and close, trying to read what she meant with her lips.
"The sound just now came from the fifth floor. Let's go up together! We're safe for now! "
Jia Wei gestured with his hands and rushed up first.
The silent person's range of silence was calculated with him as the center, so there was no need to worry about walking out of this range.
However, the duration was very limited. They had to end the battle as soon as possible.
They were well-trained and rushed up to the fifth floor in the blink of an eye.
The scene on the fifth floor was different from what they had imagined.
The few infected seemed to be fine. They fell to the ground and fainted.
In Room 504, a lonely figure stood by the window with his back facing them, as if he was looking at the sunset not far away.
Beside him, there was a pile of radio fragments.
"I'm just a hero driven by interest. There's no need to thank me!"
Tong Mu said calmly.
However, he did not know that due to the effects of the 'silent person', no sound could be heard in this area.
Therefore, Jia Wei and the other two did not hear his pretentious words at all. They directly pounced on him and pressed him to the ground as if he was a criminal.
In the notebook, Fang Xian rolled his eyes. "An idiot who can't be handsome for more than three seconds!"
