Chapter 34: Desperate situation

While Dong Ning continued to explain to the police, Dong Xie began to pay attention to that room. Inside there, there would likely be clues. Then, he patted Dong Ning's shoulder, covered his nose, and said, "Ning, the stench seems to be coming from there. Let's go there and take a look?" Frankly speaking, the stench …… made him suspect that it was coming from a rotting corpse! But it was winter now, and even Feng Yu, who had died the earliest, shouldn't be emitting a foul odor right now. What's more, this house was also clearly not directly above the one they had entered on the 3rd floor. Dong Ning looked toward the door and nodded as well, saying, "Yes …… yes. Brother, let's go take a look then?" "Wait …… this is not your house either ……" But Dong Xie didn't wait for the police to finish, so he pulled Dong Ning's hand and rushed towards that door. When he reached the door, he had Ning stand behind him and held the doorknob, then quickly opened it! Bloodletter mission to the present, his tolerance for horror has been greatly increased, but also well prepared mentally, even if he saw Yamamura Sadako appeared in the inside he will not feel scary. The door opened …… The stench almost hit his nose, causing Dong Qi to almost vomit right out. Even in the dirtiest of toilets, he had never smelled such a sickening stench! He immediately subconsciously covered his nose and proceeded to walk into the house, while turning back to Dong Ning and saying in a low voice, "Don't come in, I'll go in alone." Behind him then came Zhao Long's voice: "Well, officer, you don't care too much, my younger siblings, usually reasoning novels read too much, so …… well, I would like to ask you, what kind of person is the alarm ah?" Zhao Long apparently helped them stall the police so that Dong Xie and Dong Ning could explore the room. Dong Xie asked Dong Ning to help him guard the door at the entrance before walking in. In this study, there was only a writing desk and a bookshelf that was two meters tall. On the bookshelf, there were many books placed at the moment. And the stench, it was from this bookshelf in front of him that the stench was transmitted. Dong Xie covered his nose and walked towards the bookshelf step by step. At this moment, his imagination as a horror novelist was at work again. Could it be that someone had killed someone here in the past and then sealed the body inside the wall, thus emitting a foul odor? Was this where the evil spirits came from? Dong Xie slowly walked over to the bookshelf, and fortunately, there was a window inside the study, so a sliver of moonlight shone in. The moonlight projected from this window slightly reassured him. Afterward, Dong Xie walked to the bookshelf. "Hmmm …… these are?" The books on the bookshelf were mostly some very old books, and he casually flipped through a few of them before realizing that the publication dates of these books were all from the eighties to the nineties! "Surely it's the old people who live here, isn't it ……" Dong Xie looked at the books in his hands, so old that the pages were falling apart. He put the book back again and proceeded to continue checking it out. "Hmm?" He realized that there was a spot on the top side of the bookshelf that had a very striking crack. "This ……" He was about to take a closer look when the moonlight outside suddenly became brighter. It seemed possible that the dark clouds obscuring the moon had dispersed. Dong Xie himself had a height of one meter nine, so by slightly standing on his tiptoes, he was able to see the uppermost side of the bookshelf. The crack, which was quite deep, was extremely striking. Just then, the police walked in. "Don't look around, this place might be the scene of the crime. Go out first." "Hmm. Okay." Dong Xie had no choice but to walk out, and at this time, he suddenly noticed that Ah Ning's expression was clearly not right. Dong Ning pulled Dong Qi to the side and said to him, "Didn't you …… notice?" "What …… means?" "In terms of the room structure, the location of that study is exactly directly below the room where …… you saw the eyes from the gap in the floor!" At this moment, Dong Xie only felt a chill at his back! "Are you …… sure?" "I'm sure! However, it was only when I just watched you enter the study that it suddenly occurred to me. I was going to pull you out, but then it occurred to me that it's actually not safe anywhere. In here, maybe you can get clues to the way of life." Dong Xie looked back at the study, the stench was coming from there …… "Everything was arranged by the apartment. It just so happened that that room upstairs opened up so that we could get in. Then …… let us ……" Dong Xie all felt as if he had goosebumps all over his body at this moment. Inside this dark room, that horrible evil spirit could be lurking at any moment. "The dead landlady is not the truly terrifying presence of this bloodletter mission, the terrifying …… one is the old man holding the cat!" Of all the horror movies Dong Xie watched in order to create his horror novels, his favorite Western horror film is the Invocation series directed by fellow Cthulhu mythology fan Wen Ziren, of which he especially loves Invocation 2. The dead old man who initially appears in the movie is a front used to paralyze the exorcist by the real scary being behind the curtain, the evil nuns at his disposal. The landlady assumes the role of the former, I'm afraid. The landlady's appearance just now was forcing them inside the house and making them have to be trapped here. When the door was closed, the coughing sound simply disappeared. This could not be a coincidence. This phenomenon should be a restriction of the apartment. At this time, the policeman was inside the study. That was, after all, the source of the stench, and he should have gone in just now with the intention of searching again for any new clues. Dong Xie, on the other hand, felt that he needed to go to another room to take a closer look. On the side, there was only the kitchen and the bathroom, as well as a bedroom. The door to the bedroom was wide open, and I wondered if the policeman had opened it. Dong Xie walked over there with Dong Ning this time. Dong Xie pushed the door slightly open and looked inside. The windows in the bedroom were much larger, and the moonlight had become much brighter at this time, so it wasn't very dark inside the bedroom. This also increased Dong Xie's boldness quite a bit. However, in the entire bedroom, there was only a bed and a cabinet, and the furniture was simple to the extreme. And on that cabinet, there was a dressing mirror inlaid. Looking at that mirror, it really made people a little creepy. In the countless horror novels written by Dong Xie himself, mirrors were props that he frequently used to shape the atmosphere. Now, he could truly experience it. However, Dong Xie was uneasy about leaving Dong Ning alone to guard the door outside, intending to ask Zhao Long to come over, but at that moment, he heard Zhao Long walk into the study and chat with the police officer, "Officer, how did that coworker of yours just disappear like that? It sounds unbelievable." "Forget it, just wait for a while." Just at this time, Dong Ning suddenly thought of something and looked towards the location of the study. "Wait a moment…… brother." "What's wrong?" "I don't think it's quite right ……" "What's not right?" In Dong Ning's mind, a thought arose, then she quickly walked to the door of the room and turned the door handle, the door still could not be opened . "What's wrong?" Dong Xie walked to Dong Ning's side at this time and asked, "What the hell?" Dong Ning slowly turned back and looked in the direction of the study. Zhao Long was standing in the doorway, conversing with the police inside, standing in the doorway to prevent the door from automatically locking. "It's me who …… thinks …… too much …… right?" Dong Xie looked at Dong Ning's face and was just about to ask what was wrong when he heard a scream from behind him! Then, the two of them turned back to see the door to the study slammed shut! Inside, Zhao Long's miserable scream was heard! "No!" Dong Ning's legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground! That policeman …… is not a real policeman! He just said that "the cell phone can not be used to contact the police station". But in fact, the police usually use the police walkie-talkie, because the walkie-talkie compared to the cell phone has a rapid establishment of communication (cell phones need to dial and the other side of the connection) and unlike cell phones will not be highly dependent on the base station these two major advantages, not to mention that the signal itself will be relatively poor in the remote suburbs! If it was a real police officer, he should have used a walkie-talkie to contact the police station in the first place, not a cell phone! "You …… you're not a cop, you're …… ah ah ah, don't ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!" Inside the study, Zhao Long's heartbreaking howl came! The door behind them could not be opened …… Dong Qi and Dong Ning realized that they were destined to die in this place!
