Chapter 158

In six buildings.

On the top of the dark corridor, the sensor light flickered a few times under the sound of footsteps, barely turning on.

Swaying some dim lights, towards the stairs, Chen Lun's shadow was reflected on the wall of the corridor.

The shadow moved upstairs, changing positions, and Chen Lun stepped on the stairs and climbed up the stairs.

The darkness pervading the corridor was pushed into a corner where the induction lights on the top could not reflect.

There was a strange incident,

Inside the six buildings, it seemed a bit dead silent.

There are not many residents, and the rustling of many people's lives is also missing.

In the entire corridor, it seems that only the sound of Chen Lun's footsteps on the stairs can be heard.

along the corridor,

Chen Lun's eyes were still calm, and he fell in the corridor in front of him, but moved his feet upstairs, walking at basically the same pace.

The corner lights from the first floor to the second floor are still barely on, and the lights from the second floor to the third floor have already been turned off.

It's just that the sensor lights on the next floor were touched by the sound of footsteps, and some light was barely separated from the floor.

In the corridor, the darkness permeated from time to time, and the lights reflected from time to time reflected in Chen Lun's eyes.

A light was broken, and the corridor was still a little dark after all. The darkness that was barely dispelled seemed to pervade the corner, following behind Chen Lun, and together with Chen Lun, slowly spreading upstairs.

Behind Chen Lun and beside him, the shadows reflected by the lights in the corridor also changed their appearance according to the position of the lights in the corridor.

……

There are two floors of Chen Lun's residence.

The lamp on the top of the corridor was awakened by the sound of footsteps, and it cast a shadow on the ground behind Chen Lun.

Shadow didn't move much.

Chen Lun stood in this corridor, facing the households on this floor, and paused.

This is the home of the old man surnamed Qiu.

The door of the house of the old man surnamed Qiu was closed tightly at the moment, and some light from the corridor reflected on the closed door, and some light was also reflected.

Opposite the house of the old man surnamed Qiu, there was another family whose door was also closed. It may have been an accident in the previous strange incident, or it may have moved out of here after that.

His gaze was calm, and he fell on the tightly closed door.

After a pause, Chen Lun turned around again, followed the corridor, and continued to climb up the stairs.

The lights in the corridor awakened by the sound of footsteps, then go out as the footsteps go away,
The surrounding darkness quickly rushed over again, submerging the corridor behind him.

……

Go to the door.

Open the door, enter the house, change shoes.

Close the door again.

The shadow cast by the lights in the corridor outside the house disappeared towards the ground in front of Chen Lun.

Only half of the curtains were opened from the side, and some cloudy light came in from the window, leaving a vague figure on the side ground.

Season 77, Day [-], overcast.

The sky outside is still clouded with clouds,
Although it was noon, the room was still a little dark.

in the dark,

Chen Lun moved his feet,

Pick up a broom and sweep the dust in the house.

The whole house, the whole building was dead silent,

It seemed that only the broom Chen Lun was holding was rubbing against the ground, making some rustling noises.

Chen Lun's eyes were calm, so he moved his feet, took the broom, and cleaned the house little by little in the darkness.

Never turned on the lights.

……

"...Welcome to continue watching our noon news..."

"boom."

Putting down the broom, turning on the old TV made a dull sound, shaking the casing of the TV.

Chen Lun moved his feet and walked out the door, the dull sound disappeared behind him.

Leave the community from the southwest gate of the community.

Along the road outside the outer wall of the community,

Chen Lun moved his feet and walked forward with basically the same pace.

……

"...I ordered the last remaining potatoes and sold them cheap!"

"...Brother, I'll give this to you as a gift. It's ten yuan in total."

vegetable market.

The stalls in the middle sell vegetables and pork, and the ones around the side sell chicken, duck, poultry, fish, shrimp and seafood.

Carrying bags, people walking along the stalls, buying vegetables.

Some people were talking, some chickens, ducks and poultry were calling, and some noisy movements could be heard from time to time.

Some people are inquiring and bargaining, some people are shouting.

Someone was sweating, chopping off large bones with a knife, someone was grabbing the chicken and duck, stabbing the neck of the chicken and duck, pouring blood into the bowl, the chicken and duck were still flapping their wings, making some throats There was a gasping sound.

"Okay...here."

Chen Lun entered from the north gate of the vegetable market and walked to the butcher's stall.

Behind the pork stall, a man in an apron had just chopped a bone, when the bone dregs splashed and landed on the edge of the chopping board.

He raised his arms, wiped the sweat from his forehead, picked up the chopped bone into a plastic bag, and handed it to a meat buyer and a pork vendor next to him, then turned his head and looked at Chen Lun ,
"Hey, Xiao Chen. I haven't seen it for a long time."

Seeing Chen Lun, the butcher's face showed some smiles and greeted him,

"I'll see what to eat today, should I buy some lean meat?"

The butcher vendor smiled and asked again.

Chen Lun stood in front of the booth, his eyes were calm, and he fell on the booth,
"Three taels of lean meat."

After saying something aloud, Chen Lun naturally turned his gaze.

Next to it, there are more figures.

Walking over from the side, it seems that they are also here to buy meat.

It's a young man.

Wearing a white shirt on the upper body, trousers on the lower body, and a pair of casual shoes on the feet,
The shoes seem to have been washed a lot and are somewhat faded.

Just standing in front of the pork stall, looking back and forth towards the stall,

It seemed to be picking meat, but he didn't make a sound, instead he hesitated and remained silent.

"okay."

Hearing Chen Lun's response, the vendor didn't mind, and responded with a smile,
Turning his gaze a little further, he glanced at the young man who had just walked to the booth, and didn't say much,
Turning around, holding a sharp knife for cutting meat, he cut off a piece of lean meat separately from the hanging piece of meat.

"Xiao Chen, it just happens to be two or three. Do you want me to cut it for you by the way, so that you don't have to go back and cut it yourself."

Simply put it on the scale, weighed it, the vendor turned around again, and said something to Chen Lun.

"Need not."

"That's all right. It's six dollars. Here."

After the stall owner said something, he handed the lean meat in his hand to Chen Lun.

Chen Lun reached out to take it, took six yuan from his pocket, and handed it back.
Turn around, move your feet, walk to the side and walk away.

"...Xiao Chen, go slowly."

The stall owner looked at Chen Lun again and greeted him,
Seeing Chen Lun walk away, he turned around again,

He turned back to greet him, and stood in front of his booth without making a sound or leaving, just looking back and forth at the young man with some pork bones hanging,

"...Young man, what do you think you want to eat?"

"Give me a pound of pork ribs."

The young man was silent for a while, his face was a little shy, he was embarrassed, and said to the stall owner aloud.

"Okay, how about this one?"

The stall owner looked around, took off a rib, and asked again.

"……Row."

The young man nodded in response.

"Want to chop a piece?"

"If you want to chop it into pieces, please ask the boss to chop up the bones into smaller pieces."

The young man responded one after another.

"Take it back and burn it?"

"Can you see such a big piece?"

The stall owner picked up the knife and chopped the ribs on the chopping board.

"Please chop off a little more... My father's mouth is too small, she can't eat it if it's too big."

The young man said something again, a little embarrassed.

"Okay, I'll chop it again."

"Thank you."

Put the ribs chopped into small pieces into a bag and hand them to the young man. After collecting the money, the stall owner looked at the young man again,

"Young man, you just moved here, it seems like it's the first time I've seen you come to buy meat."

"Yes. Thank you."

"If you need to buy something next time, come here again."

"it is good."
