The ghost ship walked to the door of Room 102, took a bandage, and knocked on the door heavily. He shouted,
"Open the door, we're new neighbors!”
Perhaps it was the two resentful ghosts in Room 103 that made the ghost ship regain its confidence, and its tone became very arrogant.
A few seconds later, the door opened and a gentle voice sounded,"
"Hello, my name is Xiao Yue."
A female ghost was standing at the door with a sweet smile. Her white dress was spotless and did not fit in with the gloomy and terrifying environment around her.
Zhou Han took out an exquisitely wrapped bag and handed it to Xiao Yue. He smiled and said,"
"This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."
Xiao Yue took the bag, turned around, and walked into the house. She said,
"Come in and have a seat."
Zhou Han looked at the ghost ship. Xiao Yue was dressed like a human, not a ghost at all.
After sensing Xiao Yue's strength, the ghost ship nodded and walked into the house.
Zhou Han followed closely behind and looked around in surprise.
The room was neatly cleaned, so clean that not a trace of dust could be found. Zhou Han almost thought that he had returned to the real world.
Xiao Yue took a painting from the drawing board and handed it to Zhou Han. She said,
"This is one of my most satisfied works. Please accept it as a small token of my appreciation.”
At the end of her sentence, Xiao Yue winked playfully.
Zhou Han took the painting and looked down. A blood-red flower bloomed on the white paper. It looked lifelike.
After putting the painting into the System Space, Zhou Han asked casually,"
"Sister Xiao Yue, we just moved into the apartment and don't know anything. We're afraid of accidentally provoking the neighbors.”
"Do you know who the most powerful resident in our apartment is?”
Xiao Yue thought for a moment and said,
"If you want to talk about the most powerful resident, it should be the substitute butcher in Room 303. All the tenants in the apartment are afraid of him.”
When the ghost ship heard that, it became interested and asked curiously,"
"How powerful is that substitute butcher? Could it be that they were even more powerful than the couple in Room 105?”
Xiao Yue nodded and played with her paintbrush. She said gently,
"The entire apartment is the property of the Butcher. Moreover, the Butcher especially likes to cook with humans and ghosts.”
Zhou Han narrowed his eyes and asked curiously,"
"What about the old ghost at the door?"
Xiao Yue fiddled with the drawing board and said,"
"He's the father of the substitute butcher. Many tenants call him the substitute flipper behind his back.”
……
After that, Zhou Han and Xiao Yue chatted for a while, then stood up and left. He slowly walked up the stairs.
The ghost ship followed beside him and asked curiously,"
"Big Brother, aren't we going to Room 101 to visit the neighbors? That old ghost must have saved up a lot of ghost coins!”
Zhou Han shook his head and said,"
"It's time to gather. I hope they have clues about the murderer.”
Just now, Zhou Han had already found out that the old ghost at the entrance of the apartment was staying in Room 101. It did not matter whether he visited or not.
……
Inside Room 302.
The fat player was eating fries. There was a pile of snacks and a few bottles of drinks in front of him. He looked like a hungry ghost reincarnated as he ate his snacks crazily.
Zeng Qiuming spun his pistol and said impatiently,"
"Fatty, can you be a little quieter?”
The fat player trembled and said with a bitter face,"
"Boss, I'm worried that I won't be able to eat snacks in the future. I want to be a full ghost even if I die!”
Qiu Su frowned and sat at the side, wiping a long saber.
A few seconds later, there was a knock on the door.
"Dong dong dong"
The fat player's expression changed. He nervously closed his eyes, afraid that the killer would barge in.
Zeng Qiuming stood up and opened the door. Zhou Han walked in with the ghost ship beside him.
After Qiu Su saw that everyone had arrived, he said in a deep voice,"
"I just visited the neighbors on the third floor and found a few clues. Old Man Ghost's son lives in Room 303. Moreover, their reputation is very bad.”
"Unfortunately, the substitute butcher isn't home at the moment.”
Zeng Qiuming nodded and said,"
"The tenants on the second floor are all resentful ghosts. They told me that the Butcher's personality is very violent. When he gets angry, he will attack the tenants and turn them into vegetables.”
When Zhou Han saw this scene, he said,
"There are three malicious ghosts on the first floor. A ghost couple in room 105 and an old ghost in room 101.”
"Also, the female ghost in room 102, Xiao Yue, is very strange. She should be an artist with a mysophobia.”
Qiu Su raised his head and glanced at Zeng Qiuming and Zhou Han."
"We have two choices now. Either we wait for the killer to make the first move, or we get rid of the biggest threat, the substitute butcher.”
Zeng Qiuming spread his hands and said casually,"
" I think there's another option. We'll start with the weakest and eliminate all the ghosts in Despair Apartment.”
"Otherwise, the First Generation Butcher isn't a murderer. We'll have to be prepared to be surrounded and beaten up.”
The entire Despair Apartment belonged to Old Man Ghost and the substitute butcher. Once the substitute butcher was killed, Old Man Ghost would definitely chase after them in exasperation.
It would be better if the substitute butcher was a murderer. If not, they would be in trouble.
Qiu Su pondered for a while, then looked at Zhou Han and asked,"
"Do you have any suggestions?"
Zhou Han thought for a moment and said in a deep voice,
"I think it's better to take a break and wait here for the killer to make his move.”
"We don't know if the murderer is a substitute butcher or not. Moreover, the word 'murderer' can be interpreted in many ways.”
"For example, only ghosts that kill people can be called murderers.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere became a little heavy.
The fat player's face turned pale as he stammered,"
"Qiu Su, you are a law-enforcement officer, you must protect me.”
Qiu Su didn't answer. He stood up and thought for a few minutes before saying in a deep voice,"
"Let's wait until night and see if the killer will make a move.”
"Everyone, stay here and don't leave.”
Zeng Qiuming nodded, took out the blanket, and laid it on the floor. He said lazily,"
"It's only noon now. It's still early. I'm going to sleep for a while.”
The fat player's expression relaxed slightly as he ate his snacks. As long as he was with everyone, he felt very safe.
Zhou Han sat beside Qiu Su and asked,"
"Have you heard the other tenants talk about Xiao Yue in Room 102?”
Qiu Su thought carefully and said,"
"I heard from my neighbor that Xiao Yue rarely goes out and often stays in her room to draw.”
Zhou Han nodded and waited patiently.
