Chapter 218 Theme Competition: Fortune Apartment (3)
Gu Shijiu ignored him and went straight to the convenience store to buy food and snacks.
When she returned to her apartment, the young man was still there and was still trying to talk to her.
As soon as Gu Shijiu stepped into the elevator, the other person quickly followed her in: "Excuse me, I'm going up too."
The man watched the elevator doors slowly close and pressed the button for the sixteenth floor.
Gu Shijiu was about to press 16, but seeing that he had beaten her to it, she withdrew her hand.
"Hey beautiful, my name is Jiang Jiadong. What's your name? Oh, you also live on the sixteenth floor? You're not living in 1688, are you?"
What a coincidence! I live in apartment 1686; we're neighbors.
The elevator began to move upwards, creaking and groaning loudly, indicating that the facilities here were somewhat outdated.
Gu Shijiu didn't want to talk to strangers, so she pretended to look around in the elevator and carefully read the text on the bulletin board.
A notice was printed on the pink paper.
Dear residents of Fuyun Apartment, our apartment undergoes routine security checks on the 14th and 24th of each month. Please do not enter the emergency exits on those days.
Jiang Jiadong followed Gu Shijiu's gaze to the notice, seemingly wanting to answer her question: "Two checks a month, that's quite strict, huh?"
However, there's nothing that can be done about it; these old buildings have outdated facilities everywhere, so inspections are necessary.
"This is the date... it sounds unlucky. They say the building's haunted these days..."
Jiang Jiadong's voice suddenly lowered, and he moved closer to Gu Shijiu's face, seemingly trying to scare her.
"Then why is number four alright?" It's a pun, Gu Shijiu understands.
If that's the case, then number four must also have a problem.
Jiang Jiadong was stumped by the question. How would he know? He had no choice but to change the subject: "How come you live on the sixteenth floor?"
Beautiful lady, your outfit alone is worth at least tens of thousands of yuan, not even including the watch on your wrist. It doesn't look like you're short of money to live here.
Young people, take my advice: don't try to seek thrills like others. You have to value your life. If you can move out, then move out.
Despite being quite young himself, Jiang Jiadong spoke in a way that sounded incredibly old-fashioned.
Gu Shijiu glanced up and down at the pendant around his neck and the bag in his hand, but said nothing.
Jiang Jiadong chuckled twice and stuffed the pendant into his clothes: "Hehe, these are all fake."
"Oh," Gu Shijiu replied expressionlessly.
She didn't actually recognize that the items were valuable; she was just observing her surroundings.
Feeling guilty and exposed, Jiang Jiadong awkwardly stepped aside.
The atmosphere in the elevator suddenly became a little awkward.
Fortunately, it didn't last too long, and we soon reached the sixteenth floor.
As expected, Jiang Jiadong was staying in room 1686. Before entering, he politely waved to Gu Shijiu.
After finishing his meal, Gu Shijiu was once again feeling utterly bored.
As usual, Shi Qi has disappeared without a trace, and it's unclear when the story will begin or when there are any tasks to complete.
That night, at two in the morning, Gu Shijiu was fast asleep.
Outside her door, a rag doll dressed in a suit with a strange smile appeared out of nowhere; it seemed to belong to the same series as the one in the room.
The rag doll in the suit chuckled and removed a glass ball from its eye socket.
When the glass ball landed in its hand, it quickly transformed into a human eyeball and rolled into the room through the crack in the door.
His eyes darted around, trying to observe the situation inside the room.
Seeing that nothing was amiss, the suit-wearing doll's body suddenly turned into a cloud of smoke.
The next second, the smoke gathered into a human shape, which appeared on the other side of the door.
However, it bumped into a short-haired doll dressed in a dress, twice its size.
The suit-clad doll instinctively sensed something was amiss.
Looking behind the short-haired doll, it saw a mirror with a crack in the middle and a strange camera.
There were still some things on the living room table that made it uneasy.
It didn't see any of these things when its eyes came in.
Just as the suit-wearing doll was about to back away, the short-haired doll's hair suddenly seemed to come alive and began to grow wildly.
A dark shadow was gradually approaching through the crack in the mirror, seemingly about to break through the glass.
The scissors on the table floated precariously into the air, their two blades opening and closing as if controlled by someone.
The camera suddenly started playing video, which showed many non-human creatures trying to step out of the screen...
The suit-clad doll was stiff and instinctively tried to bring its eyes back to life.
However, the eyes did not heed its call and were spinning around in the short-haired doll's hand.
"Um...sorry, I'll be going now." The suit-wearing doll cautiously looked at its kind, who resembled it quite a bit.
"Who gave you the audacity to enter my 'arena'?!"
The short-haired doll hissed and roared, its already long black hair dancing wildly in the room.
As soon as the words were spoken, the short-haired doll's hair curled towards the suit-wearing doll, accidentally knocking the camera to the ground.
Just then, several shadows on the screen squeezed out, and they were all caught and flung to the ground by their hair.
The shadows grumbled and helped each other to their feet.
Instead of looking for the short-haired doll that caused them to fall, they all rushed towards the suit-wearing doll with eerie expressions.
Along the way, several pairs of feet stepped on the mirror, pushing back the black shadow that was trying to pry open the cracks.
The scene became extremely chaotic.
"A bunch of idiots!!" The short-haired doll yelled in anger at her subordinates, whipping her hair around without mercy.
The line was much neater now, and they pounced on the suit-wearing doll with bared teeth and claws.
The suit-wearing doll's body dissipated into a cloud of smoke again, trying to slip away, but was interrupted by a slap from the short-haired doll.
The shadow that stepped out of the camera grabbed the suit-wearing doll's arm and pulled hard.
With a "rip," a piece of the rag doll's suit sleeve was torn off, revealing the cotton stuffing inside.
Immediately afterwards, the scissors came close and snipped at the shoulder of the suit-wearing doll.
My shoulder was immediately slashed with cuts of varying depths, and cotton fibers floated out and danced in the air.
The suit-wearing rag doll tried to resist, waving its little arms and trying to push away the attackers;
But its power seemed so insignificant in the face of these fierce creatures of the same kind.
At this moment, the black shadow in the mirror on the ground was still struggling to get out.
Its hand had already extended from the crack, waving in the air, seemingly wanting to join the "siege" of the suit-wearing doll.
Amidst the chaotic attack, the suit-clad rag doll's body gradually became mangled and broken, helplessly enduring it all...
Gu Shijiu, who was lying in bed, seemed to be awakened by the noise. She mumbled and reached out to pull the blanket up to cover her head.
Then she turned over, her breathing quickly returned to normal, and she slept soundly.
The viewers in the live stream were amazed.
