Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis
Page 161
Liu Zheng came up with a solution.
"Okay, let me try."
After hanging up the phone, a heavy knocking sound immediately rang out on the door.
He looked in the direction from which the sound came, and his heart, which had just been filled with joy, immediately turned cold.
because.
All the doors rang.
Chapter 135 Stockings
The hallway was filled with chaotic knocking.
If you add in sounds like "Give me back my life!", then it's a standard horror movie plot.
However, this monotonous sound can sometimes be more terrifying than a human voice.
"It's quite lively."
Liu Zheng felt surrounded by voices from all directions and raised an eyebrow.
"I never expected to receive such a warm welcome from someone as simple as a food deliveryman. I'm so touched."
He wiped his face with his tentacles, as if wiping away tears.
"Since everyone welcomes me so much, I can't refuse to give them face."
He lowered the tentacles and spoke loudly.
"Next, I'll randomly select a lucky guest to enjoy playing with the Tindaros Hounds. It's free!"
Liu Zheng raised the teething stick and said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the corridor fell silent.
"What happened? Why is there no sound?"
"It's so deserted, I guess you don't welcome me."
Liu Zheng sneered.
No one answered, not even the Nightingale's door.
"I just love a lively atmosphere. If you guys aren't having a good time, then I'll just have to make it lively by myself."
"Do you think the number of residents on this floor would be enough for a pack of Tindaros hounds to keep up with?"
He raised his golden finger again, looking curious.
"Snapped!"
"Crack! Crack!"
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
The knocking on the door immediately intensified, even more so than before.
"That's more like it. It's better to have some liveliness. This apartment is so depressing, it needs to be lively to feel alive."
Liu Zheng said with satisfaction.
Then he randomly walked to a room and looked at the number on it.
1299.
He tried to turn the doorknob, but it wouldn't budge.
"Bang bang bang!"
So he simply banged on the door.
"Open the door and let me in to have a look."
Liu Zheng shouted.
"My husband isn't home, so it's inconvenient."
The knocking stopped abruptly, and a woman's voice, barely audible, answered.
"My husband's not home, that's no fun. Fine, keep knocking on the door."
He waved and walked toward another door.
1211.
"Open the door, open the door."
Liu Zheng continued banging on the door.
"My wife isn't home either, you can come another time."
A timid, hesitant male voice replied.
"Isn't that even better? I can still hear your voice, husband, it's still so charming."
He chuckled slyly.
"what?"
"Listen to me, let me in and take a look. Otherwise, I'll unleash the dogs, and whatever happens after that will be your responsibility."
Liu Zheng threatened.
"No, please, let me go, I'm not pretty at all."
The man pleaded desperately.
"I don't want you to think, I want me to think."
His tone was domineering.
"Then come in."
The man's tone suddenly turned sinister.
With a click, the inner lock on the door was opened.
A small crack appeared in the door, through which a faint, dark red light shone.
A flat, human figure was behind the door, appearing and disappearing intermittently.
"Come in, come in."
The man spoke in a psychedelic voice.
The knocking on the doors of the other rooms also stopped at this moment.
Alarm bells rang in Liu Zheng's mind.
Things took an unexpected turn of events.
The intimidation, which had been going smoothly, seemed to suddenly lose its effectiveness.
Behind that door, there must be some unspeakable horror.
But the more this is the case, the less he intends to back down.
If a person dies, a bird will look up to the sky, and he will not die for tens of thousands of years.
Since these weirdos want to play with him, he'll play along with them.
"Okay, then I'll come in. I have a lot of things, I don't know if you can fit them all."
Liu Zheng kicked the door open with a sudden burst of energy.
The dark red light suddenly surged, and a human-shaped cardboard figure floated in the air, reaching out its hands towards him, as if wanting to give him a hug.
"So enthusiastic, okay, okay, then we should give each other a big hug."
Suppressing his growing sense of danger with unwavering willpower, Liu Zheng hugged the cardboard cutout.
He wasn't lying; all four tentacles were holding something.
These included a teething toy, a cheat code, a Chaos Club membership card, and a delivery slip that had somehow ended up in his pocket.
The cardboard figure trembled slightly, and a gentle breeze blew it away from Liu Zheng's embrace.
Liu Zheng could sense that it was afraid.
Although we don't know what it's afraid of, as long as it's afraid, things will be easier to handle.
"Don't be so shy, come here, give me a hug."
He lunged at the cardboard cutout.
Another breeze blew by, and the cardboard figure dodged his lunge.
"Okay, okay, if you don't want a hug, then a handshake is fine, right?"
Liu Zheng extended all four tentacles.
The cardboard cutout figure saw the four thick, long tentacles as if it were four venomous snakes.
This time, it didn't even need the wind to blow it; it just started running around the house.
"Are you playing the eagle catching chicks here?"
Liu Zheng got impatient after grabbing it for a while, and directly raised the tentacle and shouted.
"Don't you dare run away, or I'll pull the strings and everyone in this apartment building will be dead."
The cardboard figure stopped running, its eerie flat eyes staring at him without uttering a word.
"Take me to 1219."
Liu Zheng shouted.
The cardboard figure trembled again, but made no further move.
It seems it's still a little unwilling.
"Then you can just wait to be mailed."
He suddenly lunged forward, hugged the cardboard figure, and with a flick of his wrist, tried to tear off the delivery slip.
It shuddered violently, then kicked Liu Zheng away.
Then it peeled a piece of paper off its body, blew it towards Liu Zheng, and the latter caught it in his hand.
Then, the cardboard cutout gestured to Liu Zheng, pointing towards the door.
The meaning is very clear.
Grandpa, you'd better hurry up and leave!
Liu Zheng tactfully walked towards the door, and as he stepped out, he turned back to the cardboard cutout and said something.
"Your house is nice, I'll come again next time."
"boom!"
The door slammed shut, nearly crushing his nose.
"Tch, how rude."
Liu Zheng pursed his lips and looked at the note.
Just as he was thinking about how to use it, the note flew up on its own and headed forward.
"Looks like it's a compass."
Liu Zheng followed the note and walked forward.
After walking for a few minutes, the note suddenly turned and landed at the doorway of a room on the right.
Room number: 1219.
He extended his tentacle and rang the doorbell.
Since we're all acquaintances, there's no need to be so abrupt in knocking on the door.
Soon, the door was opened.
A strong gust of wind made Liu Zheng squint. In his limited field of vision, a huge floor-to-ceiling window, shattered into pieces, stood in front of him.
