[Comprehensive British and American] Almighty Witch

The elevator door opened, and Kay stepped in with the walkie-talkie, flashlight and door key. After thinking about it, he pressed the 7th floor, and it was more time-saving to patrol from the top floor to the first floor.

Because the apartment is not officially open, Kay does not need to register tenant information, so she and the other two male administrators will patrol the apartment for one night. After the official opening, she will not be responsible for this area.

In fact, it is not difficult for Kay to watch the night. Her previous job was a female dormitory administrator in a certain university, and she also needed to watch the night frequently.Those female college students often make noise until midnight. Sometimes it is so loud that the neighbors will call her to complain when they can't stand it. She has to get out of bed in the middle of the night and go upstairs to knock on the door and shout. Girls don't necessarily buy it yet.

Relatively speaking, the night watch here is much simpler. If there are no accidents, you just walk along the corridor from beginning to end to check whether the doors and windows are open or not, and whether the water and electricity are normal.No, it took less than 10 minutes to go upstairs, and she has already found the third floor. Everything is normal on the fourth floor, and I believe the third floor is also the same.

While thinking about this, Kay watched the elevator door slowly open, and a big red "3" was displayed on the door.

"Ding Dong"

The elevator door had been fully opened, and Kay stepped out. She had just stood outside the elevator door when her eyes suddenly went dark. Before her exclamation came out, the lights came on again, and everything was as usual.

"Oh, I was taken aback. Remember to talk to George, who is in charge of the water and electricity later, and let him see if there is something wrong with the wiring!"

Kay caressed his chest exaggeratedly, and walked down the hallway while clutching the flashlight.The elevator door was facing a long corridor. The corridor was covered with a scarlet carpet, and people walked on it softly and silently.

There are closed doors on both sides of the corridor. The doors are dark brown, which looks fine during the day, but Kay suddenly feels that this color looks very old under the dim light.

"Tsk, why didn't I notice it before? It turns out that the color of the door looks so earthy at night, it really looks like the color of the door that was popular more than ten years ago!"

Kay turned on the flashlight while complaining in his heart. He wondered if it was because the sky was getting late. The street lights that he thought were bright enough before seemed a little dim now.Kay didn't care, and took a flashlight to scan left and right. The door was locked tightly like the floors above. Except for the lighting problem, there was nothing wrong with it.

Soon, Kay came to the end. There was a window at the end. The window was half open. Although the outside was not facing Lake Mosor, the chilly wind still blew in.

Kai was shivered by the wind, and quickly reached out to close the window.

"Before I went upstairs, I didn't think it was so cold tonight. I guess it will rain tonight. Let's close the windows so that the rain doesn't come in!"

Kay was looking out the window, wondering if the windows on the upper floors were closed, and if they were not, she might have to go upstairs.

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly, there was a loud noise behind Kay.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

Kai's heart was pounding with fright, she turned around immediately, the long corridor was empty, only her angry and terrified face was vaguely seen in the mirror on the elevator door from a distance.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

The voice sounded again when Kay was unprepared, this time Kay heard it clearly, it was clearly a knock on the door, a hasty and panicked knock on the door.

Kai felt scared. She just walked past these doors. Every door was locked. It was impossible for anyone to enter the room. If no one entered the room, who was knocking on the door inside the room?

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

The knocking on the door continued, and Kay confirmed that she was not hallucinating.This realization made her heart beat faster, and she could almost hear her own heartbeat.But this time, she began to move forward slowly. Whether she was checking the sound, or running into the elevator to call for someone, she always passed the closed doors.

The knock on the door kept ringing, and Kay, who moved her steps carefully, was getting closer and closer to the sound, and she felt that her heart, which was still pounding just now, was almost frightened.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'll just take a look at it when I pass by it, and run away after a look! It's okay, it's okay!"

Kay muttered to herself as if hypnotizing herself, which she had a habit of every time she got too nervous.When I came here, the corridor that I thought would take a few minutes to walk through seemed very long at this time, and the width seemed to suddenly become narrow. The narrow and long space made it difficult for people to breathe.

I don't know if it's because of too much tension that caused the lack of oxygen. Kay just felt that her eyes suddenly became blurred, as if countless thick smoke poured in from all directions. She felt that she must be hallucinating, but the thick smoke The choking smell was so real, so real that she couldn't help coughing violently.

"Cough cough cough!!! Cough cough!!!"

The choking smoke grew more and more, Kai covered his mouth and nose, blocked the sound of coughing, and tried to open his tears from the smoke to look around!

"My God, is there a fire?"

Kay took out the walkie-talkie and quickened his pace towards the elevator not far away. When he passed a closed door, there was another hasty knock on the door.

This time, the sound rang in Kay's left ear, and Kay turned his head subconsciously to see that a lot of thick smoke was billowing from the crack in the door of the room on the left, and the slightly black smoke was about to cover the entire door. All wrapped up, Kay looked up subconsciously, and saw "314" marked on the dark brown door.It turned out that the apartment building was really on fire, and the source of the fire was in the "314" room.

And almost at the same time, Kai heard weak cries for help, a woman's voice: "Help! Help! Is there anyone outside? Help me!"

Only then did Kay realize that there was really someone in room "314". Since it was a person, even if there was a fire, Kay immediately relaxed, stopped in his footsteps, and retreated to the room of "314". In front of the main entrance.

There was a lot of interference on the intercom, but Kay had already heard George and Stilwell telling her that they would come up immediately, which made her calm down a lot. Feeling a little anxious, he frantically pulled out a bunch of keys and searched for the key of "314".

"People inside, don't worry, I'll open the door to save you right away, just wait a moment!" The more anxious he became, the more flustered he became. Kai searched for the key for a while but couldn't find the key, and the female voice calling for help in the room became weaker and weaker. Looking at the thick smoke constantly coming out from the crack of the door, Kay extremely suspected that the woman in the room was almost suffocated by the smoke.

"Oh God, finally found you!"

Kay immediately inserted the key into the keyhole, turned his right hand, and with a "creak", the door of "314" opened.

Kay was afraid that the fire would be too big to open the door at once, so he tried his best to disperse the thick smoke with his hands, and shouted loudly: "Hey, the door has been opened, the people inside come out quickly, cough cough, come out quickly !"

However, no one responded to Kai's call, as if the female voice calling for help just now was really Kai's hallucination.The strange thing is that the thick smoke that was still filled just now is gradually decreasing and fading. Kay guessed that the fire in the house should not be big, so he pushed the door of "314" room open with all his strength.

It didn't take long for a scream to resound through the entire apartment building.

"The woman in the house was burned?"

Burke asked Mina curiously. After asking, he shook his head and denied it. If it was just burning people to death, everything would be done according to legal procedures. Why would Childe bother to ask a witch like Adeline to deal with this matter? thing?

Adeline drooped her eyelids to cover the flash of light in her eyes, but continued Burke's guess and said: "If I had to guess, I would guess that there was no one in the room, neither the living nor the dead. !"

Mina was taken aback by Adeline's words, and she nodded, thinking that this woman named Adeline seemed to be much more accurate than Burke's intuition.The eyes of Childe beside her lit up, and his trust in Adeline increased.

At this moment, Mina's footsteps stopped, she turned around, frowned and said solemnly to the three people behind: "Here, it's here! What's inside, you can go in and see for yourself."

Burke and Adeline looked up at the same time when they heard the words, and a striking golden number "314" broke into their eyes.

Mina made a gesture of invitation, signaling Burke to open the door for himself. Burke glanced at Adeline, and Adeline nodded to him. Burke took a step forward, and with a light twist, the door opened "Crack" and opened.

Adeline frowned slightly when she heard the sound of the door, but immediately she looked normal again.Burke pushed the door and entered the room, and Adeline stepped into the door after him. The two froze at the door at the same time. The Childers behind them clasped their hands, not surprised at Burke and Adeline's reaction. Because, they have seen such surprise and even fear countless times.

At this time, Adeline's eyes were full of dense black handprints on the supposedly white wall facing her. No, the handprints were too gentle, and the prepared ones were more like anger, fear, or dying. During the struggle, there were black scratches on the wall.

There was a hint of surprise in Adeline's eyes, but it didn't show on her face. She turned around and looked around. Sure enough, it wasn't just on the opposite wall. There were scratches like this in all directions in the room, even on the ceiling.

Burke followed Adeline's movements and glanced around. Even though he was a policeman who often went to the scene of various murders, he couldn't help but feel the goosebumps on his body: "No wonder Kay was shocked. screaming, this looks too intrusive! By the way, how is Kay now? This matter is of little use to the police, and it will also affect the reputation of the apartment. It is indeed a bit troublesome!"

Mina and Childe were still standing outside the door, and she really didn't want to see the scene inside the room again: "Kay is fine, it's just that she was too frightened and needs to rest for a while. However, she doesn't want to do her job as an administrator. Done. Well, luckily George and Stilwell weren't frightened, but they didn't dare to come to the third floor again during the night watch!"

Burke stepped forward to wipe the black handprint with his hand, put it on the tip of his nose, and immediately frowned: "This is indeed the soot after the fire burned out. It seems that the fire and smoke that Kay said are not all hallucinations."

Mina tightened her blouse with her hands, and added in a desperate tone: "I don't dare to ask others for this room, so I tried to paint it several times by myself, but it didn't work at all. When I opened it the next day, it still looked like a ghost. , Alas, it’s really not possible, I can only give up this apartment!”

Adeline had walked around the house several times at this time, except for the black handprints on the wall and the new door that creaked, there was nothing suspicious about it.

No one spoke, and the room suddenly became quiet.At this moment, Josh's phone came in, and just as Adeline connected, Josh's hahaha sound came from next to her ear.

"Hahaha, Adeline, I guessed right, the remaining one out of a hundred people must be joking with you! Do you know that Rene is just a 13-year-old girl, and her so-called supernatural things It's her father who has been waiting for his wife who has been missing for ten years. Rene firmly believes that her father is fascinated by the "fox spirit". I ask you, a witch, to help her drive away the so-called "fox spirit"! "

Although Adeline was a little surprised, she didn't feel disappointed: "If this is the case, then come and find us, we are still working on the apartment!" After that, Adeline reported the address of the apartment to Josh.

Unexpectedly, Josh has the spirit of watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously. He was afraid that Adeline would hang up on him, so he said a long paragraph: "Adeline, how can you say that Rene is your little girl?" The first customer in the store, although the service she bought is not within your business scope, but the little girl doesn't think so, she firmly believes, listen carefully, she firmly believes that his father's current lover is a "vixen", so I think it's best for you to meet with her and clarify the matter on the spot, otherwise, if she leaves a message of dissatisfaction with you to your shop, your business will never be able to open!"

"Is that so?" Adeline was a little confused by Josh's words, but in the end, it was nothing more than letting her meet the little girl Rene. Adeline felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so she agreed with Josh. According to Ash's suggestion, Josh happily hung up the phone, and paid some money to hire the little girl to be his tour guide to take him to the apartment building, and let her meet Adeline by the way.

Adeline seemed to think of something after hanging up the phone, and immediately stopped the Mina couple and Burke who were about to leave and asked: "Mina, did you say that this apartment building was built on the site of an old hotel? ?”

"Yes, 'Tribethia Hotel', but that hotel has been closed for ten years, and when I took over, there was only a ruin!"

"If I'm not mistaken, that hotel closed down because of a fire!" Adeline said with certainty, looking into Mina's eyes.
