Chapter 151 After the Old House Caught Fire
Chapter 151 After the Old House Caught Fire (1)
The sun is scorching and it hasn't rained recently. Even in the Eastern Hemisphere, the air is a bit drier.
Chu Xiang was wearing a white round-brimmed hat, but it didn't provide much sun protection. She was only wearing a thin nude pink dress today. After walking in the hot sun for more than an hour, she soon felt tired, hot, and irritable.
Dragging her suitcase and looking at the map in her hand with great effort several times, she raised her eyes and looked around. The Gothic-style alleys were quaint and revealed a rich historical and cultural atmosphere, but to her this place was like a maze.
Walking into this old town, the navigation has lost its accuracy, and I don’t know how long the system software has not been updated. This well reveals the relaxed nature of the people in this country.
Chu Xiang had no choice but to buy a map and try to find the right way by himself.
It was already dusk and it would be dark soon. She had no confidence in the security here and she had to find the house she had seen online before dark.
Chu Xiang gritted her teeth, picked up her suitcase and continued forward. At the fork in the road ahead, she looked at the map which she could no longer understand, raised her head and hesitated for a while, and finally chose the right side.
Chu Xiang had just taken two steps to the right when he heard a noise from the other side.
"Miss, how can I help you?"
Chu Xiang turned around and saw a lady at the intersection on the left. The lady smiled and was obviously greeting her.
Chu Xiang paused for a moment and said, "I'm looking for the house I rented before."
"It's easy to get lost in the streets here. Even if an outsider has a map, he may not be able to tell the direction. I'm a local. Where do you want to go? Maybe I can point you in the right direction."
The brown-haired woman stood in the shadows, smiling in an approachable and warm-hearted manner. She introduced herself again, "My name is Caroline. I rarely see strangers here, especially a beautiful oriental lady. I hope you don't think I'm being presumptuous."
She smiled warmly and looked like a gentle and kind person. The hoop earrings on her earrings glowed slightly, which was very eye-catching.
"No." Chu Xiang thought for a moment, dragged her suitcase and walked over. She showed the map to Caroline, pointed to a small dot on it, and said, "I'm going to the apartment building here."
Caroline only took a glance and smiled: "This is Ivy Apartments, right? You are going in the wrong direction. You should go forward from here."
Caroline pointed in the direction behind her and said carefully: "Turn right at the fork in the road ahead, then continue forward and turn left, and you will see Ivy Apartments."
Chu Xiang took note of it silently, took the map and thanked him.
Caroline smiled, "Are you here for tourism?"
"I'm here to study abroad. School starts in half a month, so I rented a house in advance."
"So that's how it is. I hope you'll be happy living here." Caroline smiled much more warmly when she saw Chu Xiang stepping into the shadows. "Good luck to you."
Chu Xiang thanked him again and walked forward in the direction Caroline pointed.
Until Chu Xiang's back disappeared, Caroline's excitement hidden in her heart suddenly became hard to conceal. She couldn't wait to take a step forward. At that moment, she crossed the dividing line between darkness and light. She was ecstatic and ran into the glow of the sunset. She cried with joy.
Turning back, Caroline bit her lip and whispered, "I'm sorry."
This is an ancient street, although it is old, it is not old. I didn't see many people walking along it. Slowly, a building appeared in front of me.
The castle-like building with no lights on stands in the early night after dusk. It is very conspicuous and also reveals a bit of desolation.
Chu Xiang stood in front of the building and looked down at the map again, not sure if he had found the wrong place.
The information she had found before showed that Ivy Apartment should be a lively place and should not be as quiet as it is now. She suspected that either the information on the platform was false, or she went to the wrong place.
At this time, a dark-skinned man passed by.
"excuse me……"
Before she finished her words, the dark-skinned man was suddenly frightened and trembled all over. When he raised his eyes and saw Chu Xiang, a stranger, there was surprise in his eyes, but he said nothing. He wrapped his clothes tightly, lowered his head and walked quickly into the apartment door.
This man seemed to be stimulated by something, like a frightened bird. Seeing a strange woman made him unable to calm down.
Chu Xiang stood alone on the dimly lit street, as if she was the only living being in this cold world.
She was hesitating whether to go in when a man's voice came from behind her.
"Miss, I think you need a place to stay."
Chu Xiang turned around and a tall figure came into view.
The man had a slender figure, much taller than the average man. The well-cut black suit was slim-fitting and showed off his perfect waistline. The man with long legs and a thin waist had an extremely delicate figure.
His short blond hair was neatly combed, his blue eyes were slightly curved, his face was young and slightly pale, but his temperament was elegant and steady. His hands in black gloves were placed behind his back, like an old-school gentleman from centuries ago. He smiled and said:
"It's not safe for single ladies at night. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the security here is bad. I'm just objectively explaining the potential dangers to you."
He was too tall, perhaps about 1.9 meters. Chu Xiang needed to look up to make eye contact with him. The strange thing was that because this man had a warm smile and was very gentlemanly, his tall stature did not give people a strong sense of oppression.
Chu Xiang asked: "Excuse me, who are you?"
"I forgot to introduce myself. You can call me Eugene. I'm a real estate agent, and Ivy Apartment is one of my properties."
Chu Xiang remembered that when she rented a room online before, the platform said that there would be a real estate agent waiting for her locally. She smiled, her eyes shining, "I was the one who booked the room online before, you should have an impression."
Eugene smiled, "Of course, I'm sure I remember that. We have a lot of empty rooms here, you can take your pick."
Chu Xiang nodded and walked into the door dragging his suitcase.
Eugene followed her with a smile on his face.
The door of the apartment was very tall and big. The moment she stepped in with her luggage, she felt like a poor lamb walking into the mouth of a beast.
The smile in the blond man's eyes deepened, and his hands behind his back loosened, and two blood-stained hoop earrings happened to fall into the trash can next to him.
The last bit of smell of blood disappeared without a trace.
