chapter 51

Pei Sui carefully picked out the small cabbage in the upper left corner piece by piece and ate it with white rice.

The lunch box was very rich, but the other three compartments were all meat and vegetables.

She didn't dare to touch them. She

didn't even dare to touch the little bit of oil in the compartment over there.

Qin Baocheng was obviously the same.

The two of them carefully finished the lunch box and threw it into the trash can in the living room.

Qin Baocheng frowned and looked at the TV that was still changing channels. "It's so noisy, can you stand it when you sleep at night?"

Pei Sui glanced at it helplessly, "Maybe he has difficulty making choices."

"Snap!" The TV was turned off as Pei Sui's voice fell.

Oh, are you still angry?

"The ghost in your house is quite temperamental." Qin Baocheng chuckled and glanced around, "I'll help you see if there is anything strange in your house."

"There." Pei Sui pointed to the door of the second bedroom, "It's sealed, I don't know what's inside."

Qin Baocheng frowned, "Leave it there for now, be careful when you go in and out, don't get too close to that door."

"It seems there is something unclean inside."

Pei Sui's face changed slightly, and she immediately stood a little further away, just in time to the door of the master bedroom.

She looked at the water cup on the bedside table again. She had paid attention to the water in it before she went out, and it was still at the same level.

"This glass of water is also quite strange." Pei Sui gestured to Qin Baocheng.

Qin Baocheng was thoughtful. After a few seconds, his peach blossom eyes were full of deep light. "Have you heard that putting a cup of water on the bedside table can drive away ghosts?"

Pei Sui rubbed the tip of his ear. "You mean... this cup of water is used to drive away ghosts?"

"Yeah." Qin Baocheng said in a calm voice, "Maybe the apartment management deliberately put it here to protect you. As long as you don't touch this cup of water, you shouldn't be in danger sleeping in this room at night."

"...And don't I have to patrol at midnight? I will pass by your door at that time. Then we will exchange secret signals to confirm each other's safety?"

"Not so good." Pei Sui frowned, "What if there is a noise and something that shouldn't be provoked is attracted?"

She didn't know why Qin Baocheng made this suggestion.

But she was still on guard and didn't agree.

Qin Baocheng pondered for a few seconds, "Yeah, forget it. If anything happens, you can come to the lobby to find me. I don't have a security room, so I sleep in the lobby and help the waiter guard the front desk."

"Okay. It's still early now, I plan to go out and see if I can find any clues." Pei Sui paused, "Didn't you say there is a rooftop? Let's go up and take a look?"

Qin Baocheng nodded and walked out with her. Seeing Pei Sui locking the door, he said, "Do you have any clues about the videotape?"

"No." Pei Sui suddenly thought, "But there is a place where I think there may be a videotape."

"Where?" Qin Baocheng immediately became alert.

"Over there." Pei Sui pointed to the end of the corridor where the window was sealed, "There is a locked stairwell there, do you have the key?" "

Stairwell?" Qin Baocheng was stunned and asked in confusion, "That's not right. There is no staircase in the apartment floor plan that Lao Zhou gave me. I thought it was strange when I looked at the map..."

"What did you say?" Pei Sui suddenly felt a chill on his back and walked over quickly.

Qin Baocheng followed closely.

They walked to the end of the corridor, and the door of the stairwell was still there, with a rusty lock.

The wooden door of Room 401, which was opposite, moved slightly.

It seemed that someone was inside, observing Pei Sui and the others.

Qin Baocheng looked at the door with surprise.

"How is it possible? There is really a stairwell here!"

"No." Pei Sui came to this door for the second time, and suddenly realized something, frowned tightly, and got goose bumps all over the floor.

"No... Did you notice that there is one room missing..."

Qin Baocheng looked at her deeply, and said in a low voice, "Room 404 has disappeared."

In the fourth-floor plan, this stairwell does not exist.

Room 401 is opposite to Room 402, near the window sealed by bricks.

Next to Room 401 is Room 403, and opposite is Room 404.

Room 406, where Pei Sui lives, is opposite Room 405, where a mysterious and overly handsome NC lives.

Next to them are 407 and 408, which are opposite to each other and close to the elevator

. But now, room 401 faces the stairwell.

Turning your head, you can see that room 402 faces room 403.

Then it jumps directly to 405, 406, 407 and 408.

Pei Sui lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice, "404, a non-existent address... So is this house hidden too?"

Qin Baocheng frowned, "This is an important clue, and it's too dangerous for the two of us to go into this stairwell. Let's ask them to come together."

He curled his lips and showed a meaningful smile, "Since it is a main task completed by cooperation, we have to share clues, right?"

Pei Sui always felt that he was a little more dangerous, and silently quickened his pace and walked to the elevator.

This time, the kid who played with the ball did not appear, and the elevator quickly rose from the first floor.

Qin Baocheng and Pei Sui stepped into the elevator together, and the dim lights inside suddenly flashed a few times.

But it soon returned to normal. Pei Sui's heartbeat quickened until the elevator stopped steadily on the first floor. Nothing happened.

When the elevator door opened, she walked out quickly and breathed a few breaths of fresh air in the lobby.

Now I feel that such a spacious and bright lobby is really good.

She is a little envious of Qin Baocheng, who can sleep here at night...

In the lobby, except for the aunt who had a car accident while buying vegetables and the plumber, other players gathered at the front desk to chat.

The female college student's lips turned pale, as if she was frightened again. "Now... now let's go to the rooftop together to have a look?"

"What's wrong?" Qin Baocheng walked over and asked his younger brother.

The headless ghost younger brother A was also trembling. He said in a trembling voice, "She said that she kept hearing the sound of footsteps above her head when she was eating, but she was on the sixth floor, so she was very scared. She wanted to ask everyone to go to the rooftop together to have a look."

Qin Baocheng nodded to show that he understood.

The headless ghost brother A started to cry again, "Master Qin, why don't you accompany me to dinner! I was so scared when I was eating! The curtains in my room kept moving, as if something was hiding inside!"

"What are you afraid of, a grown man! Have you forgotten the swordsmanship I taught you?" Qin Baocheng was very disappointed. The

headless ghost brother said he was very aggrieved .

He remembered the swordsmanship, but he didn't have a sword!

Obviously, Qin Baocheng didn't intend to waste time talking to him. Instead, he said to the other players, "Have you found any clues to the video tape?"

Everyone shook their heads.

He raised his thin lips, and his peach blossom eyes sparkled with a faint smile, "I found the videotape, but I need your help."

"Where is it?" Everyone pricked up their ears and looked at him.

"In the stairwell." Qin Baocheng's voice was full of confidence.

"..." Pei Sui felt a little guilty. She just guessed that it might be there, but Qin Baocheng actually said it so confidently. What if they

mobilized a large number of troops to look for it, but found nothing, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

The captain of the Burning Ghost snorted, "Stairwell? Where is it?"

"There is no stairwell at the end of your corridor, right?" Qin Baocheng glanced around and confirmed his guess, "Only on the fourth floor is there that mysterious stairwell."

Because 404, the non-existent room, is on the fourth floor.

Captain Burning Ghost's face changed slightly, and then he said, "Okay, now there are two places to explore. For safety reasons, it's better for everyone to act together. One is the rooftop where there may be people, and the other is the stairwell where there may be a videotape. Let's vote."

Their actions in the Infinite Sect have always been very democratic, and they are decided by voting, rather than relying entirely on the captain.

However, the stairwell with the videotape seems to make the players more excited.

Pei Sui took the lead and said, "I vote for the stairwell."

The stairwell is on the fourth floor, which is her territory. Of course, it is better to figure it out first.

Qin Baocheng and the headless ghost brother A also voted for the stairwell.

As for the headless ghost brother B, he was not eligible to vote because he could not leave the small area of ​​the front desk.

In order not to miss any calls for help from residents, he had to pay attention to the phone even when he went to the toilet. If it rang, he had to run from the bathroom on the first floor to answer it.

Fortunately, the bathroom was in the lobby, very close to his front desk.

The female college student carefully voted for the rooftop. The cleaning lady had a good relationship with her, and under her constant pleading, she also voted for the rooftop.

Three to two, only the captain of the Burning Ghost had one vote left.

The Burning Ghost's eyes were dark and bright.

After a long time, he said in a deep voice, "Go to the stairwell!"

His teammate, the female college student, wanted to cry immediately.

"Captain, why are you turning your elbow outward!"

Isn't it more important to help her solve the unknown danger on the rooftop first?

Why should we help outsiders?

Is it because Pei Sui looks better than her?

The female college student felt unbalanced and looked at Pei Sui hatefully.

Her eyes were red and full of resentment.

The Burning Ghost glanced at her lightly, "Finding the videotape is our main task."

"Rooftop... Isn't Lao Han going to go up to check the water tank at 8 o'clock in the evening? Why are you in a hurry?"

The female college student bit her lip, but her eyes were still unwilling.

In this way, everyone got into the elevator together and went to the fourth floor.

As soon as the headless ghost brother A got out of the elevator, he sighed, "It turns out that the corridors on each floor are so depressing and terrifying... I thought only the fifth floor was the scariest..."

"Have you seen other residents living in the building?" When Pei Sui passed by 405, he suddenly remembered the handsome guy and couldn't help asking others.

"Don't even mention the residents, there's not even a shadow of a person!" The cleaning lady is very dedicated. She has cleaned the corridors on the second and third floors.

Now she is holding her cleaning tools in her hand and completing her work tasks while looking for clues.

With so many players accompanying her to clean, she feels much more at ease. The

headless ghost brother A sighed fearfully, "Except for the ghosts in the house, no other living creatures have been seen."

Logically, the players are all ghosts, all the same kind.

But there are still many players who are afraid of ghosts.

Pei Sui thinks it's amazing.

Pei Sui, who is afraid of ghosts, said that if she really died, she would not be afraid of ghosts. She

even wants to fight with ghosts to see who can scare who to death.
