After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 771 Noise upstairs, cat being released next door

These two sounds were like turning on a switch.

Soon, clanging, banging, and popping sounds came down from the ceiling in succession.

Occasionally, there were interspersed a few indistinct words and suppressed screams and cries of pain.

Jiang Hanying could clearly hear every sound, and even the moment she heard a sound, she could simulate the scene in her mind.

Even though she herself had come from a place ravaged by death, she couldn't help but gasp in astonishment. "What grudge could lead to such a fierce fight in their own home?"

However, since it was someone else's family matter, she didn't seem to have any reason to barge into their home to break up the fight.

Li Chengxiao also stopped cleaning and listened quietly for a while. Then, as if thinking of something, his face darkened. He put down the mop and stood up. "I'll go up and take a look."

Jiang Hanying jumped up from the sofa, slipped on her cheap owner's slippers that were several sizes too big, and chased after him, saying, "I'm going too."

Just as I reached the door and was about to open it, a sharp meow suddenly rang out from upstairs, after which all other sounds disappeared.

"It seems like they're not playing anymore, are you still going?"

"Ah."

"Let's go, let's go," Jiang Hanying said, and dashed out first.

Li Chengxiao glanced at someone who was more interested in watching the show, and reluctantly followed.

When she arrived at the elevator lobby and saw that the elevator was stopped on the first floor, Jiang Hanying was too lazy to wait and went to the stairwell next to it.

It's just one floor anyway.

In less than half a minute, the two arrived at the door of 1401.

Jiang Hanying sniffed; she could smell fresh blood even through the door, not just human blood, but also animal blood.

Li Chengxiao stepped forward and rang the doorbell posted on the front door.

There was another loud bang from inside, followed by a somewhat hurried female voice, "Who is it? Who is it?"

"We live downstairs. We heard some noise from your house, so we came up to check if you were alright."

"No, it's nothing. I'm sorry to disturb your rest. There won't be any more noise later. You can go back and rest."

Jiang Hanying opened her mouth and whispered, "Lying!"

Li Chengxiao patted her head and replied towards the door, "It's alright, we'll go downstairs now."

Since the other party said it was fine and didn't open the door, they couldn't just force their way in.

"Let's go."

When I got back downstairs, there was no much noise. Although there were still slight sounds of walking and dragging things around, it was negligible.

Li Chengxiao continued to tidy up the living room and the bedroom, then went to the kitchen to boil water, poured a cup for the follower behind him, and then rushed to the bedroom to make the bed.

After finishing his work, he went back to the kitchen, picked up his glass of water, and was about to drink it when Jiang Hanying pulled him to the entrance.

There's some noise outside!

Although he was a little drunk today, Li Chengxiao had no doubt about Jiang Hanying's hearing. As soon as he heard her words, he simply turned on the hidden camera on the front door.

This was originally installed to monitor the neighbors.

Through a receiver screen installed on the wall, the real-time image outside the door can be clearly projected onto the screen.

The screen lit up, and they saw a figure squatting in front of the front door next to theirs, taking a key from under the carpet, looking around before inserting it into the lock, opening the door, picking up a black bag from beside his feet, and going inside.

"It's that lady who was in the elevator just now."

"Ah."

What was she doing next door?

"Look again."

The two drank water and stared at the screen for another two minutes before the person finally came out, but the big black bag they had taken in was also gone.

Then he gently closed the door, put the key back under the carpet, and adjusted the position of the doormat. After looking around, he limped out of the shooting area.

Jiang Hanying put down her cup, looking eager. "What did she put next door?"

Li Chengxiao had already reached out and opened the door. "Go and take a look."

"Hehe." The two went out again and were just two steps away from the door next door.

Li Chengxiao squatted down, thought for a moment, then went back to the kitchen to find a pair of disposable gloves and put them on. As he put them on, he also told Jiang Hanying, "Don't touch anything inside."

"Uh-huh."

The door was reopened.

Inside, the decor was similar, with white walls and tiled floors throughout, and the furniture was covered with dust covers.

In addition, since no one has lived here for a long time, there is a noticeable musty smell.

Jiang Hanying covered her nose and didn't bother to visit the haunted house that everyone was afraid of. She just followed the fresh footprints left on the ground.

This led them to the master bedroom inside the house.

"Woo!"

He met a pair of wide, wary cat eyes.

There were also several tiny kittens nearby, probably only a few days old, their eyes still closed and unable to stand, crawling around on the master bedroom bed.

Jiang Hanying: "...So, did you secretly use this room to keep cats?"

This is truly unexpected!

That's an absolutely brilliant idea!

Li Chengxiao stepped into the bedroom, but stopped at the edge of the bed.

A mother cat that is nursing will only get scratched if anyone gets close to her, unless they are a very affectionate human.

Not to mention, this cat still seems to retain some wildness.

However, this distance was enough for him to see clearly: "There was blood on the cat's paws."

"Ok?"

"It must have scratched someone earlier and got locked up here." Li Chengxiao glanced at the half-open bag of cat food and a basin of water in the corner, then turned around. "Let's go back."

Even if you only stayed next door for a short while, you still felt like you had picked up a lot of musty smell when you came back.

In addition, it was getting late, so Li Chengxiao took out a new bath towel, packed the still energetic person into it, and sent them into the bathroom, saying, "Go take a shower first."

Jiang Hanying was incredibly swift this time, pulling her cheap master, who was about to leave, towards her. "Together!"

Hot water causes the residual alcohol in the body to evaporate faster, and the mind becomes more excited, so a bath lasts for more than an hour.

The bathroom here isn't very big; I almost ran out of oxygen towards the end.

The last bit of drunkenness was completely washed away.

Finally lying on the soft, plush bed, Jiang Hanying half-closed her eyes, enjoying her cheap host's hair-drying service. Seeing the ceiling, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "When you lived here before, did you hear any fighting upstairs?"

"No, no one lived upstairs before. The residents of 1401 must have moved in within the last six months."

"The cat next door isn't scratching that lady, it must be scratching the person she was fighting with."

"Yes, most likely."

"Then why do you think they suddenly stopped fighting?"

"Maybe they were just tired from playing."

Jiang Hanying met the eyes of her cheap master who was looking down at her, and nodded slightly.

Let's just say we were tired from playing.

"Alright," Li Chengxiao said, turning off the hairdryer as his hair dried completely. He glanced at the clock on the wall. "It's almost one o'clock. Time for bed."

"Wait, I don't have pajamas yet!"

Li Chengxiao had no choice but to go around to the wardrobe again, open it, glance at the few clothes hanging inside, and finally take down a black shirt with a smooth and soft fabric and hand it over, "Can you wear this as pajamas for now?"

Jiang Hanying didn't hesitate, taking the dress and putting it on quickly. After fastening the jade buttons on the chest, she stood up from the bed, turned around, and showed it off from all angles. "How is it?"

Li Chengxiao stood with his back against the cabinet door, and upon seeing this scene, his fingers twitched slightly involuntarily.

It seems like I've suddenly figured out the right way to wear this shirt!

Put it on the person in front of you!
