Chapter 414: Liu Xiaogang Falls for It — Qin Yi’s Irresistible Charm Over Men
The Military General Opera Performer didn't go out to chase. It seemed he intended to deal with Yao Junjie in front of him first.Watching Liu Xiaogang flee, the saying "true friendship is revealed in adversity" came to mind.
If he could get out of this alive, he would absolutely never make videos with Liu Xiaogang again!
That bastard, seriously, just left him here like this.
Clearly, if the two of them fought together, there was hope.
At that moment, as if remembering something, he immediately shouted towards the bedroom, "Jiang Ran! Save me! Fight with me!"
He wanted to call for Jiang Ran, but Jiang Ran clearly rejected his idea. There wasn't the slightest movement from the bedroom door.
Instantly, Yao Junjie fell into despair.
In despair, he picked up a large bone-chopping kitchen knife from the table.
Liu Xiaogang, who had fled outside the door, was trembling all over with fear. He had only run a few steps before he almost tripped and fell.
He planned to escape to a safe place first, then make the call!
After all, he was afraid that by the time he made the call, that person would have already killed Yao Junjie and come chasing after him!
"Junjie! You have to hold on!"
Liu Xiaogang fled towards the stairs, not even taking the elevator.
Just as he was passing by Room 303.
The door to 303 suddenly opened.
The door was half-open, and a beautiful figure urgently called out to him, "Get in here, quick!"
Liu Xiaogang swore that if the person who suddenly opened the door of 303 and called him inside was a big, bearded man, he definitely wouldn't have gone in.
But the one opening the door was a stunning beauty.
Instantly, all his guard dropped. In a daze, he didn't even know how he ended up going inside.
After he entered, the door to 303 closed.
The beautiful figure who had opened the door for him carefully observed the outside through the peephole.
Then, she gently patted her ample chest and let out a deep sigh of relief, "Phew, good thing that person didn't chase us."
Looking at the beautiful figure before him, especially the area her jade-like hand was patting, Liu Xiaogang stared with wide, fixed eyes, unconsciously swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
Then, as if realizing this wasn't good, making him seem too much like a pervert—something women generally don't like—he averted his gaze and asked, "Who are you? Why did you let me in?"
This beautiful figure spoke somewhat hurriedly, "My name is Qin Yi. I live in 303."
"I know you. You're the resident of 302."
"As for why I let you in... it's because I was originally going out to take out the trash, but then I saw that person wearing the white opera costume heading towards 304."
Qin Yi stood by the door, while Liu Xiaogang stood in the living room area. He could smell the pleasant, delicate fragrance wafting from her direction.
Liu Xiaogang was drawn in by Qin Yi's words. He said, "You know that person?"
Qin Yi nodded, "He's also a resident of this apartment, but he's mentally ill. He went crazy from singing opera. A while ago, he was locked up in a mental hospital for injuring someone. I never thought he'd be out again after just a few days!"
"I saw him knocking on 304's door, and I knew someone was in for trouble. But I thought it would be Jiang Ran. I didn't expect it to be you!"
Liu Xiaogang almost cried, "Damn, this kind of mentally ill person isn't kept locked up in the mental hospital? Instead, they let him out? Isn't that just screwing people over? My friend is still in there drawing his fire!"
"Ah, I almost forgot the main thing!"
Liu Xiaogang hurriedly pulled out his phone and dialed the police emergency number, describing the situation on his end to the person on the other end of the line.
While Liu Xiaogang was on the phone, Qin Yi ran to the open-plan kitchen and poured a glass of water.
By the time she brought this glass of water to Liu Xiaogang.
Liu Xiaogang had just about finished his call.
"Your friend... the odds are heavily against him surviving. Now it all depends on his luck."
"Being anxious won't help now. Have a drink of water too!"
Qin Yi handed that glass of water to Liu Xiaogang.
Faced with a beautiful woman offering him water, Liu Xiaogang had absolutely no guard up at all.
He chuckled, took it, and drank more than half in one gulp, even complimenting how sweet the water was.
"Oh right, I'm Liu Xiaogang."
Only then did Liu Xiaogang remember he had forgotten to introduce himself, so he hurriedly added.
"Mm, hello, Xiaogang."
Qin Yi gave a slight smile, like a hundred flowers blooming.
Liu Xiaogang's eyes went completely wide. He actually blurted out his inner thoughts, "I never expected there'd be a beauty like you in this apartment building."
Qin Yi didn't speak, just smiled.
Liu Xiaogang stared at Qin Yi's face. Suddenly, he realized his eyes were having trouble focusing on that beautiful face and impressive figure in front of him.
He shook his head, blinking his eyes hard.
But it was no use.
He felt his eyelids were so heavy, and his body was heavy too.
So heavy that the next moment, he collapsed to the floor and fell into a deep sleep.
...
Jiang Ran hid in the bedroom, eavesdropping on the commotion outside the whole time.
He naturally heard Yao Junjie calling for him to come out and help.
But he didn't.
After all, your own good friend ran off. Why should he, a stranger, risk his life to help you?
Don't be ridiculous.
So, Jiang Ran just waited. He waited for who knows how long, until there was no more sound outside.
Only then did he open the bedroom door a crack, peeking out with his eye.
After confirming it was safe, he widened the crack, sticking his head out.
Then his upper body, then his whole body.
Finally, truly, he walked out and returned to the living room.
At this moment, the living room was a complete mess.
Especially the open-plan kitchen area.
Whether it was the kitchen knives or various small items.
It was truly a chaotic mess.
Even though, hiding in the bedroom and listening to the clattering and banging of the fight outside, he had mentally prepared himself.
But when he actually came out, he couldn't help but look up to the ceiling and sigh:
"Why is it always my place that gets wrecked?"
Jiang Ran hadn't forgotten the hardships his home had previously endured.
But currently, none of those hardships compared to this one.
He saw that friend of Liu Xiaogang's, named Yao Junjie.
Impaled through the mouth by a red-tasseled spear, nailed to a white wall in Jiang Ran's living room.
Just like Manager Li Chong, not a stitch of clothing on his body.
And similarly, he was definitely nailed up after he died.
Not killed by being impaled in this manner.
Jiang Ran stumbled and fell onto the somewhat slippery white porcelain floor.
He looked down. Under his butt was all blood.
White stained by red.
"Hey, was it you who called the police?"
At that moment, four police officers appeared outside the door of 304.
"Yes, it was me."
Jiang Ran nodded. While hiding in the bedroom, he had already called the police.
The four officers, without even entering the apartment, saw the horrific scene in the living room. When they saw the corpse nailed to the living room wall.
All four of their eyes showed a tremor.
"Didn't your apartment building just have a murder case this morning? And now another one? And the manner of death is exactly the same as the one this morning? This is a serial murder case?"
These four officers, seeing this, immediately called for backup.
Before backup arrived, they questioned Jiang Ran.
