Chapter 202 The sound of tapping on the window
There was no elevator, so Su Ping and the others followed the old woman up to the second floor.
The old woman went to the bottom of the stairs and brought out two candles for them.
"This place is remote, and power outages are common. I'll give you two candles for emergencies."
Su Ping took the candle with a puzzled look on her face. For some reason, she always felt that something was strange here.
The old woman pointed to the stairs next to her and said, "Okay, you can go up here."
"Remember, it can be windy at night and branches can hit your windows. If you hear them banging against your windows, just ignore them."
"And don't walk in the corridor unless necessary. There are guests upstairs, and they'll be in a bad mood if they're woken up."
After the old woman said this, she turned around and went back to her room.
Her figure was dim in the light of the wall lamp.
"Why do I feel like this place is weird?"
Su Ping shrank her neck, took Lu Zhiyan's hand and walked upstairs.
The lights upstairs were dimmer, so Su Ping could only turn on the flashlight on her cell phone.
The surroundings were very quiet, and Su Ping and Tie Niu slowly walked up to the third floor.
There were rooms on both sides. Su Ping looked at each room one by one and found that the room on the right was 316.
If it's 304, it should be over there.
Su Ping was walking over there, and suddenly she paused when she passed by 303 next door.
Because she saw that the door of room 303 was half open, and even though there was no wind, the door was swaying.
There's no one inside!
Su Ping's face looked a little ugly. She quickly grabbed Lu Zhiyan's hand and used the card to open the door of room 304.
As soon as I walked into the house, I smelled a musty smell.
Su Ping even suspected that she was killed by that old woman. How long had it been since anyone had lived in this room?
After Lu Zhiyan tidied up the room briefly, he opened the window to get some fresh air.
As soon as I opened the window, a strong wind blew outside, blowing in a lot of dead branches and leaves.
It also has the fishy and salty smell of sea water.
It seems that what the old woman said was right, the wind is indeed quite strong.
Lu Zhiyan wanted to close the window, but found that he couldn't close it.
The evening wind whistled into the room, sounding like a baby crying.
Su Ping felt a tingling sensation and went over to close the window with Lu Zhiyan after much difficulty.
She didn't know why, but she always felt a little uneasy.
When Su Ping was taking a shower, the power suddenly went out and the bathroom was plunged into darkness.
Before she could speak, Lu Zhiyan pushed open the door and walked in with a candle.
"Don't be afraid."
Su Ping and he looked at each other. Lu Zhiyan's eyes were full of worry, and he didn't feel that anything was wrong at all.
Finally, Su Ping blushed and hugged herself, then turned around and squatted down: "Get out!"
"But……"
Lu Zhiyan knew that once he went out of the bathroom he would be plunged into darkness again, and he was afraid that Pingping would fall.
Seeing that he didn't move, Su Ping turned her head and found that he was holding a candle in his hand and staring at her with a troubled look on his face.
"Put the candle aside and get out!"
Lu Zhiyan felt a little aggrieved when he saw her suddenly talking to him angrily.
But after seeing her red ears, he realized what was happening.
His eyes unconsciously fell on her snow-white back and he swallowed subconsciously.
Pingping's back is so beautiful, he can't think of any adjectives to express it, it's beyond words.
Without waiting for Su Ping to speak again, he consciously put the candle in the candlestick next to him and turned around to close the bathroom door.
Looking at his shaky back, Su Ping burst out laughing.
When she came out of the shower, Lu Zhiyan was still sitting on the bed in a daze, not daring to look at her.
Su Ping wanted to tease him.
Faced with her sudden approach, Lu Zhiyan subconsciously stepped back and almost fell backwards on the bed.
Su Ping laughed and took a clean towel from the shelf next to her.
"What are you doing? I just want you to sit closer so I can dry my hair."
After realizing how much he thought about it, Lu Zhiyan's face turned red.
Suddenly, the only sound in the room was the sound of her brushing her hair. Looking at this scene, Lu Zhiyan felt as if his heart was filled with something.
After Su Ping finished wiping her hair, she found Lu Zhiyan staring at her.
Lu Zhiyan was caught red-handed and quickly looked away.
He suddenly felt a little hot and looked around the room.
It must be said that this old woman knows how to do business. There is no chair or sofa in the room except a bed.
Su Ping saw his embarrassment and said.
"Now that the weather is cooler, let's squeeze in together."
Lu Zhiyan looked at the only quilt, thought for a while and decided to go downstairs to ask the old woman for another quilt.
When Su Ping saw him stand up, she hurriedly asked him where he was going.
Lu Zhiyan opened the door and said he would be back soon.
After saying that, he took his phone and went out.
Su Ping remembered what the old woman said, that is, don't go to the corridor unless necessary. For some reason, his scalp suddenly felt tingling.
When she chased him to the door, Lu Zhiyan had already reached the stairs.
His figure flickered in the dim candlelight, making it difficult to see clearly, and finally disappeared at the stairs.
Not knowing when he would come back, Su Ping left the door ajar.
[Calabash Brothers, when can I go back tomorrow? ]
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Calabash Brothers yawned, obviously very sleepy.
Su Ping didn't understand and asked.
Why wait until nine in the morning?
Because the work schedule is from 9 to 6, only those who are responsible at 9 am will go to work.
When Su Ping heard what Calabash Brothers said, she almost laughed out of anger.
It's the familiar nine to six again.
She vaguely heard the sound of a doorbell downstairs, which rang twice and then stopped.
It seems that Lu Zhiyan has learned his lesson this time and didn't keep pressing the button.
Su Ping rubbed his sore eyes and looked towards the door.
Why hasn’t Lu Zhiyan come back yet?
The bell downstairs seemed to ring twice again. Su Ping was too lazy to wait for him. He yawned, lifted the quilt and lay down.
She was half asleep when she was awakened by a knock on the window.
The sound was a bit creepy, as if someone was really knocking on the window outside.
But this is the third floor, there can't be anyone outside the window.
The noise outside the window was still going on, and Su Ping's scalp felt numb. Why was this homestay so scary?
She was the only one in the room. Su Ping glanced at her cell phone and saw that half an hour had passed.
The door was still ajar. Why hadn't Lu Zhiyan come back yet?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard faint footsteps outside the door.
Because it is extremely quiet at night, any slight movement will be magnified infinitely.
Su Ping listened to the footsteps approaching this side from the stairs, and finally stopped outside the door.
How did it take so long?
Su Ping yawned, turned over and sat up in bed, intending to go to the bathroom.
The moment she closed the bathroom door, the half-open door of the room was pushed open.
