Zhang Wanjing's words exploded in her ears like a bomb, making Ning Mianmian a little dizzy.

Isn't Sina the former administrator?So who was it that brought them in just now?

In other words, was it a human being who brought them in?

Recalling Xin Na's bloodless face and empty eyes, Ning Mianmian felt a chill running down her back, trying to calm down.

Lin Cen seemed to be familiar with it, and asked calmly, "Who was the former administrator?"

"I don't remember, let's die." Zhang Wanjing laughed again, her tone was very natural, as if she was talking about eating and drinking water, "There is a problem with this apartment, and the people who come to live here are desperate people, and no one will care if they die .”

Lin Cen's eyes flickered, "What's the problem?"

"This building is cursed." Zhang Wanjing looked around warily and lowered her voice, "Every twelve o'clock at night... there will be ghosts."

No wonder the rules say they should return to their rooms before twelve o'clock.Ning Mianmian was thinking, she asked Zhang Wanjing: "Then why didn't you move away?"

"I can't move away, no one can move away." Zhang Wanjing stared straight at her, and suddenly giggled, "No one can escape, no one can escape."

She pointed at Ning Mianmian and Lin Cen, "It's the same for you two."

Lin Cen smiled, noncommittal.

Zhang Wanjing didn't intend to continue the conversation either. After saying this, she immediately closed the door.Through the door, there was another burst of indistinct and weird laughter.

Lin Cen didn't care, and started walking to the second floor.

Ning Mianmian panicked when she heard that, and she asked Lin Cen as she walked, "What is this man laughing at? Is he crazy?"

"Just get used to it." Lin Cen said lightly, the light cast flickering shadows on her face, "The most indispensable thing in the dungeon is the lunatic."

Ning Mianmian thinks about it too, anyone who stays in such a weird dungeon will go crazy after a long time.Whether it's a player or an NPC, I'm afraid they all need psychological counseling.

The resident of the second family looked much more normal, a gentle woman named Ren Qiu.She looked to be in her 30s, with long curly hair and already had faint crow's feet around her eyes.

After learning about their intentions, Ren Qiu said politely: "Thanks for your hard work, it's too late today, I will treat you well another day."

"Thank you, sister." Ning Mianmian knew it was polite when she heard her tone, and she waved her hand with a smile, "It's all what we should do."

Lin Cen glanced at her room, it was much neater than Zhang Wanjing's just now.The floor was spotless, and although the furniture was old, it was wiped clean.Incense is used in the room and has a faint aroma.

She said, "May I ask you a few questions if it's convenient?"

Ren Qiu nodded.

Lin Cen said, "How long have you lived here?"

Ren Qiu: "I forgot, it's been a long time."

Lin Cen asked again: "It is said that there are ghosts haunting here at night, is it true?"

"Ghosts? I don't know." Ren Qiu's tone was firm, "I've been sleeping so hard at night that I can't hear anything."

Ning Mianmian thought for a while and asked, "Then do you know Miss Xin Na?"

Ren Qiu shook his head, "I don't know."

At this time, a black shadow suddenly flashed behind her, and then there was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Ning Mianmian was startled, she looked back over Ren Qiu's shoulder, and saw a figure lying upright on the ground.

There are... others in the room?

"It's my doll." Ren Qiu's expression flashed slightly, and he quickly walked over to pick up the doll and carried it to the door.

The puppet is a young man, half taller than Ren Qiu, with fine workmanship and lifelike.

Ning Mianmian looked at it, then suddenly reached out to touch it.

"I was too lonely by myself, so I made a puppet to accompany me." Ren Qiu explained, and she moved the puppet back calmly, as if she didn't want Ning Mianmian to touch it again. Accidentally fell over."

Ren Qiu is a very uncooperative NPC, no matter what she asks, she can't answer why, let alone the matter of Apple.

On the way to the third house, Ning Mianmian asked Lin Cen, "Sister, is there something wrong with Ren Qiu's doll?"

She touched the doll on purpose just now, and found that its touch was too similar to human skin.I don't know whether it was made directly from living people, or only the skin was taken.

"Of course there is." Lin Cen was not surprised, "If there is no problem, it will make people feel strange."

As soon as the door of the third house was opened, there was a strong smell of alcohol.

A drunken middle-aged man leaned on the door frame and looked up.

Ning Mianmian checked the list, his name was Liu Zhou.

Liu Zhou looked haggard and unshaven.He wiped his face with his hands, and when he saw the faces of the two clearly, his expression became excited, "The new administrator? He looks good."

Saying these few words seemed to consume a lot of his physical strength, as if he was about to lose his footing in the next second.

Ning Mianmian frowned, she had seen this kind of look too much at the wine table, greedy and slippery, as if she wanted to swallow people up.She took half a step back and asked, "Sir, are you feeling unwell?"

"It's uncomfortable." Liu Zhou moved forward with a playful smile. He pointed to a few apples on the coffee table behind him, "Little beauty, help me treat it? I can pay you, you will need it."

After all, he seemed impatient, reaching out to touch Ning Mianmian's shoulder.

The strong smell of alcohol rushed towards his face, Ning Mianmian frowned, and dodged his hand away.

Out of personal hobbies, she has learned boxing and judo, and her physical fitness is very good. Dealing with this kind of ordinary man is just a piece of cake.

But the "Work Instructions" said that violence should not be used against residents, so she had to hold back.

Seeing that she didn't fight back, Liu Zhou stepped closer to her even more vigorously.

At this moment, several streams of light suddenly flashed in front of Ning Mianmian's eyes.

The black ribbon on Lin Cen's wrist was slightly raised, and quickly meandered away, "swiping" several times to seal the door of the room, separating Liu Zhou from the two people outside the door.

Those ribbons were like thin sharp knives, glowing with awe-inspiring cold light, reflecting the pair of dark golden pupils without emotion.

Through the gap of the ribbon, Ning Mianmian saw that Liu Zhou's face was full of fear.

He looked over with resentment, and Ning Mianmian stared back without showing any weakness. The two sides were in a stalemate for two seconds, and the door was closed vigorously.

Lin Cen raised his hand to put away the ribbon, "Let's go."

"Thank you sister for helping me." Ning Mianmian immediately thanked her. She pointed to the ribbon on Lin Cen's arm and asked, "Sister, is this your weapon?"

She had no doubt that if there were no restrictions, Liuzhou would be a pile of minced meat now.

Lin Cen: "It's just a prop."

Ning Mianmian: ...Okay, Versailles, right?

Forget it, she believes that she will become stronger in the future, perhaps even stronger than Lin Cen.

The resident of the fourth household is a young man named Lu Jun, with a gentle and handsome appearance, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and his skin is sickly pale.He looked over warily, and after confirming the uniforms on the two of them again and again, he relaxed a little.

But he seemed to be a late-stage social phobia, and just after Ning Mianmian finished greeting, he quickly and quietly said "Troubleshooting", and quickly closed the door.

The owner of the fifth family is named Mo Shu. The door looks a little weird, densely covered with talisman paper, with red twisted patterns outlined on the talisman paper, and the content is completely incomprehensible.

After knocking on the door, there was a slight knock inside the door, but no one spoke.

Ning Mianmian turned to Lin Cen and silently mouthed, "There is someone."

Lin Cen nodded and said politely, "Miss Mo, we are new administrators, and we came here specially to say hello to you. If it's not convenient, we can come back another day."

After speaking, someone knocked on the door panel lightly, which seemed to be some kind of response.

Lin Cen said again: "Miss Mo, do you need help?"

This time the door was knocked twice, as if to say "no".

No matter what he said after that, there was complete silence inside the door.

It was past ten o'clock, and the two decided to go to the sixth family first.

After Ning Mianmian knocked on the door, a timid female voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

Hearing that the voice was a little girl, Ning Mianmian slowed down and said softly, "You are Song Yun, right? We are the new administrators."

The person inside the door was silent for a few seconds, and responded softly.

Ning Mianmian was not in a hurry, and waited quietly for a few seconds before Song Yun spoke again.

"I dare not open the door at night, I'm afraid..."

Lin Cen said lightly, "Then I can ask a few questions, is that okay?"

Song Yun whispered: "Wait until after dawn, I dare not...I, I'm going to bed."

Then there was no more sound from the door, time was precious, Ning Mianmian asked Lin Cen for advice, "Sister, shall we go to the seventh floor?"

Lin Cen said, "Okay."

The seventh floor was the last house, and there seemed to be no one there. Ning Mianmian knocked on the door for a long time, but there was still no sound inside.

On the roster, the resident on the seventh floor was named Xue Lan, who looked like a woman.

Xin Na said that she must return to her room before twelve o'clock.Ning Mianmian looked at the task progress "6/7" displayed on the panel, and couldn't help feeling a little anxious. The main task required them to greet the NPC, but if the NPC came back late, would they not be able to return to the room in time?

And the most important thing is that they dealt with the tenants just now. Although everyone had different attitudes, when they mentioned Apple, they all acted very cautiously.Ning Mianmian even felt that the NPC's reluctance to open the door and communicate was also because they did not want to provide apples.

Does Apple really want to use a beauty trick to get it from Liu Zhou?

Thinking of this, Ning Mianmian frowned in disgust.No, if you can't use violence, you will be led by the nose when you make a deal with Liu Zhou. There must be other ways.

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded at the stairway.

"Tack, tick, tick..."

The high heels tapped on the steps, unhurriedly, getting closer.

Ning Mianmian quickly stood up straight and looked towards the source of the voice.

Lin Cen stood against the wall, heard the movement, and raised his eyes to look over.

I saw a slender figure slowly walking out of the stairs, it was a woman.The woman has black hair and a shawl. She is tall and thin, but she doesn't look vulnerable.

Dim lights scattered from the ceiling, illuminating the scarlet mottled blood on her body.Her wrist was very slender, and she carried a bone-chopping knife in her hand, which was more than a foot long, and the blade was also smudged with blood.

The moment she saw the two of them, the woman rolled her eyes and smiled silently.

Her eyes wandered around Ning Mianmian and Lin Cen, and then walked towards them.

The smell of blood in the air became more and more intense, Ning Mianmian took a step back subconsciously.

The sharp blade in the woman's hand reflected a little light, and her face and hands were covered with viscous blood, which was particularly dazzling on her pale skin.

So this person came back so late because... did he kill someone?

Lin Cen didn't move, and greeted in a flat tone, "Miss Xue Lan?"

"Hello." Xue Lan stood still at the door and opened the door with the key.

The blood on her hand was fresh, leaving a sticky red mark on the doorknob.

Xue Lan looked over, with a smile in her eyes, "Come in and sit down?"
