strange neighbor

Under the high temperature of 37°C in Hangzhou, a man in a black suit was looking at the intersection while wiping his sweat with a handkerchief. Soon a slender figure appeared at the end of the road. The man's face was filled with joy, and he hurried up to meet him: "Oh, hello, hello, it's Mr. Ding. I've known you for a long time. You can call me Xiao Wang. This is the room we're trying to sleep in this time."

While talking, the man took the bag in his hand graciously: "I'll carry it, I'll carry it, come here."

Ding Shijin wore a black mask, only revealing a pair of eyes with very pale pupils, and glanced at Xiao Wang indifferently.

"Mr. Ding, this house...is very fierce!" Xiao Wang looked around, and then whispered: "Ten years ago, the hostess of this house killed everyone in the middle of the night, and then committed suicide by jumping off the building. Afterwards, the house was changed hands three times. The first and second households all jumped off the roof. The third household was slightly better. When the nanny went to the roof in the middle of the night, she accidentally knocked down He picked up a glass vase, woke up the hostess, and stopped her, no tragedy happened."

Ding Shijin nodded as he listened, then raised his eyes to look at the single-family villa in front of him, a small four-story building with dark windows and green plants all over the walls. breath.

Xiao Wang was not angry when he saw that Ding Shijin didn't talk. He had read Ding Shijin's profile before he came here, and he knew that he had such a personality. Many customers and merchants commented on him as indifferent and indifferent, but he was courageous and hard-working. and so on.

Xiao Wang glanced at the watch on his wrist, and smiled all over his face: "Mr. Ding, I won't waste your time. If you have any questions, can we contact you by then?"

"Okay." It was an extremely cold and alienated voice.

"Okay, okay, then I'll go first!" Xiao Wang ran fast with his briefcase in his hands, as if someone was chasing him behind him. It's a joke, this is a haunted house. Although he said there was something to call, he kept praying in his heart Do not contact!

Ding Shijin didn't mind Xiao Wang running in such a hurry, he raised his feet and walked up the steps, and pushed open the heavy carved iron gate with his jade-like hand.

'Crack——', the rusted door made an unpleasant sound, but Ding Shijin didn't care, and walked in calmly.

After entering the yard, he raised his head and looked at the four-storey villa in front of him. The outer walls were already covered with green vegetation, and the yard was also covered with various weeds. There was actually a mulberry tree planted in the yard in front of the house, giving off a desolate atmosphere. It came rushing towards his face, perhaps because no one lived there for too long, he opened the door, and a gust of cold temperature surrounded him, as if wanting to penetrate his skin and penetrate into his blood.

Ding Shijin put his backpack on the sofa, walked to the window and opened the tight curtains. It was sunny outside, but not a single beam of light could enter the house. He went upstairs with light steps.

The entire first floor is the living room, kitchen and nanny's room, the second floor is the bedroom of the master and the hostess, and the leisure room, the third floor is the children's room and study room, and the fourth floor is three guest rooms. The white walls have begun to have plaster fell off.

The more you go up, the colder the breath, as if the air conditioner cooling mode has been turned on to [-] degrees Celsius, which makes people get goosebumps. After checking all the rooms, there is nothing special. Ding Shijin returned to the second floor. in the bedroom.

Like the first floor, it is clearly facing the sun, but it is dark and cold.

The bedroom is relatively simple. In addition to the double bed, there is also a massage chair. There is a cloakroom on the right hand side, but it has been emptied, and the head can be seen at a glance.

Since the house does not receive sunlight, when the scorching sun turns into the setting sun, the room is already dark, and when the sun sets completely, the room is already completely invisible.

Ding Shijin stood up and turned on the light, and the clock on the wall pointed to 09:30.

Suddenly the phone screen lit up, followed by an incoming call.

He picked up the phone casually, and a clear voice came from the other side: "Shi Jin, are you okay?"

"Ah."

"Hey, my heart is lifted every time you go to work." The voice of the person on the other side was full of worry.

Ding Shijin took a few steps to the window with his mobile phone, and his voice softened a little: "There is no danger, don't worry."

"Don't worry about it. I've checked this house, but it's too vicious. I'm sure it's the most vicious one you've ever taken over. Just reading those reports gives me goosebumps. These profiteers have no guts. If you still want to make money, you must be careful, I will treat you to dinner when you are finished, so go get rid of the bad luck!"

"it is good."

In fact, what Liang Wang said is correct. Ding Shijin's occupation is a professional sleep tester in haunted houses. All real estate companies will have such a group of haunted houses. They buy them at a very low price. If you are lucky, this house is just dead inside. Extraordinary people, or some innocuous little troubles, at this time the house is empty for a few years, or you can find a person who doesn't know the truth and sell it, and you can make a lot of money. If you are unlucky, the people who live in it will never Bad luck keeps coming, and life is lost, and families are destroyed. Such houses, regular real estate agents generally will not continue to sell them, until the government demolishes them, they can also make a fortune, but how to test whether there is any problem with these houses, so Thus the profession of "Haunted House Sleeper" was born. The hourly salary is high and no technical content is required, as long as you are brave enough and hard-working enough!

However, Ding Shijin is one of the most famous sleep testers in this circle. He is more courageous, tougher, and the same hourly salary is also higher. It is really not something that ordinary companies can afford. The house this time is really too fierce. Yes, this sleep test message has been posted in the circle for two months, but no one dared to accept the order, and then he received an invitation from this company.

The moon was already hanging high in the night sky, and it had already entered midnight before he knew it. Ding Shijin raised his arms and stretched his shoulders, turned around and went downstairs, intending to get his backpack up.

There were two rows of lights with sensor switches in the corridor. As he approached, the lights in front of him also turned on suddenly. Ding Shijin put one hand in his pocket and went downstairs with an indifferent expression. Warm yellow was reflected on the snow-white walls. lights.

Suddenly he stopped and froze for a moment, as if he was remembering something. After a while, he turned around and looked at a painting that he just passed by. In the painting was a woman in a white veil with long hair hanging behind her, and her expression Showing a delicate and sweet smile, not far behind is a large field of red roses.

Ding Shijin stretched out his right hand, as if he wanted to touch the painting, but when he thought of something, he put down his hand again and continued downstairs.

His bag was still quietly lying on the sofa, keeping the same appearance as it was placed by him in the afternoon.

Ding Shijin raised his trousers with his hand, then sat on the sofa, took out a book from his backpack and slowly read it.

'Creak——' The sound of furniture being dragged and moved on the ground was very ear-piercing in the silent night, but Ding Shijin didn't seem to hear it, and even turned a page of the book.
