Spring bamboo apartment has six floors. Except for the first floor, the above five floors are residential buildings with 16 families on each floor.

If this is a square tube building, then the public toilets and stairs should be distributed in the four corners of the floor. If it is a circular building, the toilets and stairs are located at the four equidistant points of the ring, with four households in the middle.

The terrace is surrounded by a brick red fence. Standing next to the fence, you can see the circular courtyard below. Looking up is the door of most of the residents in this apartment, which is arranged in a cylindrical inner circle.

Only Zhu Haowen and Weidong lived in the last room on the sixth floor, 616.

Kexun took the key to open the door of Room 411. Because it was a circular building, the door of the room was close to the door, and the structure of the room inside was fan-shaped.

The room is a suite of 50 square meters at most. The outer room is a small reception hall with old-fashioned chest of drawers, a tea table with glass plates and a pair of small sofas with wooden armrests.

There was only an old wooden bed with a writing desk and bookshelf on one side. The bookshelf was full of art books.

Kexun opened the cloth curtain. Outside was the breathless night, thick and narrow.

The warm orange room, on the contrary, makes people feel down-to-earth.

Sometimes, just furniture, can let people glimpse the life of this family.

"Did you feel uncomfortable when you entered the painting this time?" Mu Yi Ran put his simple luggage on the desk.

Kexun didn't really think about this question: "after you said that, it seems better than the previous two times. When you first entered the building, I was suffocated." Kexun also put his backpack on the desk. "By the way, I brought toilet paper this time. You can take it if you use it."

Mu Yi Ran: "I also brought it."

It seems that everyone has suffered a lot before.

Mu Yi Ran looked at the interior of the room carefully from inside and outside. His eyes looked under the bed and frowned slightly.

Under the bed, there was a pair of red plastic slippers, which were thrown back and forth like a woman about to move forward slowly.

Kexun soon found this pair of red slippers. For a moment, he felt that the shoes were placed under the bed, but he didn't know where to put them.

"NPC didn't say it couldn't move things in the room." Kexun comforted himself, picked up the red slippers, slipped them in the room, and finally put them on the simple shoe rack in the outer room. ——These things that don't belong to you are not easy to throw out. The shoe rack is probably the most suitable place.

The shoe shelf itself was empty, and a pair of red slippers were put on it at the moment, as if there was a woman living in the room.

Kexun looked at his hands, and he always felt dirty.

"Go to the bathroom and wash your hands." Mu Yi Ran took out a travel soap box from his backpack.

Kexun had not received such treatment. He took the soap box with cold sex style and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

The public toilet was connected to the public water room, and the cement mill pool was smooth and clean. Ke Xun was in a good mood. Just then, he saw that his red slippers were not happy. He washed his hands twice. Mu Yi Ran's soap tasted like coconut, which made people want to take a bite.

Clear white soap, wash out of the soap foam but light pink, do not know where the other party bought such a girl's heart soap

Soon, Salix also brought some simple Travel Toiletries to the water room to wash. When she saw Kexun, she asked, "is there anything strange in your room?"

Kexun did not intend to hide: "there is a pair of red slippers under the bed, is this strange?"

"Our two rooms were full of books, two large bookshelves, high books beside the bed, and boxes of books under the bed."

Kexun didn't bring a towel, but directly shook his coconut scented hand: "it seems that the previous landlord or tenant loved reading, maybe he was a scholar."

"No, those books are all romance novels."

“……”

"The ones that were particularly popular in the 1980s and 1990s, such as those of Qiongyao's Cen Kailun's, Xi Juan's and Yu Qing's..." Salix frowned, the words behind did not mean to say, in addition to these, the bedside of those books are all forbidden by the romantic world.

Kexun picked up the soap box and prepared to leave the water room, leaving a sentence: "it seems that your landlord used to be a bookshop."

Salix alone in the water room, looking at the tap out of those not clear, some rusty water, reluctantly washed.

I live in room 410, those romance novels are not really terrible, but combined with the room can be observed everywhere traces of life, it makes people feel a little strange.

410 bedroom, there are two spittoons, a small and a large, I do not know what to do with.

Salix can understand that people who use public toilets may use spittoons at night, which can be called urinals.But the big spittoon was a little too big. It was almost as big as the toilet of later generations. It was covered with a cover and had holes dug out. It was used to sit on the toilet.

What kind of person does he have to defecate in the house? There is a public toilet in the apartment.

there is also a princess dressing table in the bedroom. I don't know why I took off the mirror. What's on the dressing table is the face cream, perfume, prickly heat powder, a bottle of massage cream and some unknown cream, and a wide toothed comb with white hair and long white hair. If the hair grows on the head, it should be able to grow and waist.

But it is white hair, still so long, it makes people feel strange.

Thinking of these things in the water chamber, she suddenly realized that she was alone in the water room. She looked up at the incandescent lamp on top of her head. When she was cold, she went out in a hurry.

Passing by room 412 next to the water room, I saw an old lady sitting at the door of the house, fanning to enjoy the cool, wearing a kind of old lady's floral T-shirt, covered with small red flowers on a white background.

When the willow passed by, the old lady shook her fan and said, "it's really hot on this day."

Salix slowed down, thinking that maybe she could learn something from the old lady, so she said with a smile, "yes, it's still so hot at night. Should the lights be turned off soon?"

The porter did not elaborate on the matter of turning off the lights. Shaliu wanted to find out whether the lights were active or passive.

Sure enough, the old lady said, "the power will be turned off at 11 o'clock."

Turn off the lights? Shaliu wanted to ask whether the public toilet would be cut off or not. But the old lady first asked, "girl, are you new here?"

Shaliu nodded and bravely asked, "Auntie, who lived before 410?"

"Yafen," the old lady said a name, "Yafen has lived here for more than ten years. Now she has gone to enjoy herself with her parents. She lives in a new house in the center of the city. I heard there are elevators!"

"Oh, that's good." After talking to these NPCs for a long time, who knows whether it will cause any side effects or not, it's better to stop at once.

When she came back to the house, she saw Qiu Lu leaning on the sofa reading a romance novel. She frowned. She didn't want to move anything in the room.

Qiu Lu closed the book I am a cloud and turned down the screen lamp. "I heard you say that the power was cut off at 11 o'clock," and then she looked at the pink clock hanging on the wall: "there is still half an hour."

When she felt the cool wind blowing, it turned out that Qiu Lu turned on the electric fan: "do you think what they said is true? In the picture? How can they tell such a romantic lie. "

After a look at the poetess, she felt sympathy. At the moment, she just laughed: "romance is not romantic. I'll know after tonight."

Qiu Lu turned on the lamp again and went on reading novels.

It was the first time for Shaliu to see such a big hearted person. She could not sleep in the first half of the night. According to the "Convention", she could barely sleep for a while only when the "danger" of the night passed.

After listening to 411 next door, Shaliu could hear Ke Xun's voice, occasionally mixed with Mu Yi Ran's low response, but the content was not clear.

The whole Chunzhu apartment is not so quiet, and there is even a kind of bustle like a big courtyard. The willow opens a small part of the curtain and looks at the people sitting in the shade outside. Some children refuse to go to bed early and are still chasing and playing on the terrace.

Some people's TV sound is particularly loud, above playing the old TV drama theme song: the vast land, where is my home! The world is vast, what words will you leave behind

The old lady sitting outside had gone back to her room.

At this time, a few girls passed by the window and talked about their topic: "Legend of Xiangshuai"? When was that TV play? Is it earlier than "youth Bao Qingtian"

"There is no" huanzhu Ge Ge "at the moment! You can imagine it! It's just a bunch of prehistoric people The girls who were talking were the three long legged girls. At this time, one of them was eating an ice-cream. "Besides, the food here is so cheap."

"Don't listen to the scaremongering of those people. We've probably crossed it! There is no painting! We'll buy stocks tomorrow! Take advantage of the cheap to buy a house! I have a lot of money in my card The more excited the three simple minded girls said, they wished to take the opportunity to transform the world.

Shaliu looked at them in the dark with some hostility. She recalled that she had chosen "companion" in front of the fifth exhibition hall of rhinoceros elephant art museum today, but she was intercepted by these three girls and directly let her "companion" stay behind. The three of them came in first!

All of a sudden, the number of people was in chaos. Salix wanted to cry without tears. She had already entered 12 people, but she was almost one of them. That person could only be herself

Suddenly, when it was dark, the three legged girls outside the window screamed together. They heard a neighbor shouting, "what's the ghost calling? Isn't the light off and the power is off? Go back to your room and go to bedThree girls quiet down, taking advantage of the public toilet through a bit of light, touch back several people's residence - 402.

Qiu Lu was calm about the sudden power failure, and said with a smile, "this was the way we used to be in college. When we looked at novels, we turned off the lights."

Shaliu is very angry with Qiu Lu. The other party is not as timid as she is. She can also analyze the current situation with her, but she is a fool with a big mind, ha ha.

Shaliu looks at the three legged girls entering 402, then turns her face from the window. At this moment, Qiu Lu turns on the lighting of her mobile phone. A face is particularly abrupt and terrifying in the backlight. She is frightened and angry.

Two people and clothes lie on the small bed, Salix is not sleepy, also does not talk.

Qiu Lu took the initiative to say, "I think you are still a little girl. Have you ever been in love?"

"No

"It's a pity not to fall in love at university."

“……”

"Which do you think is better, thin bamboo or sweet potato?"

Sha Liu didn't want to talk any more. Her eyes were fixed on the two big spittoons, one high and one low, in the dark. After staring at them for a while, she felt more and more like two ancient wooden figurines staring at themselves, so she quickly moved away from her eyes.

When the eyes get used to the darkness, they can feel that the whole apartment is quiet, as if there are no people living in this building, which is clearly an empty building in the dark night.

An urgent knock on the door, after an hour.
