Chapter 212 Sudden attack
"result……"
Ruyi sighed deeply and her shoulders slumped.
"As a result, they couldn't stop arguing and started fighting, and ended up in the police station."
"My boyfriend Lin Xiao and I went to the police station to pick up the person." Ruyi felt like there was something stuck in her throat when she said this.
"That's when we realized the owners hadn't signed rental contracts with the landlord. To reduce expenses and lower costs, they had signed sublease contracts directly with the previous company of 1808."
As soon as Ruyi said this, the barrage of comments instantly became boiling.
[The original boss of 1808, isn't that a mistress?!]
[Even if I'm a boss, I still have to be a mistress. What's wrong with this world? ]
[That means the contract was signed with the sub-landlord, who is also a person of bad morals. I'm afraid this house will be even more difficult to return...]
If they can't return it, then they can just move out. They can start their own companies, so why would they need that little money?
When Ruyi saw this comment, she felt even worse.
Why do people think that people who run companies must be rich, but her boyfriend Lin Xiao is not one of them?
"My boyfriend doesn't run the company alone, and six months' rent plus the deposit is a considerable expense. Asking them to move out directly is not a realistic idea."
Mei Ling'er nodded and continued to ask:
"From what you've said, the female ghost you're talking about doesn't actively harm others, nor does it cause any actual harm to your boyfriend. What made you decide to let me capture her?"
Ruyi and Lin Xiao also thought so before, that female ghosts would not take the initiative to hurt others, but after Wang Tianyang went to 1807, things took a turn for the worse.
That day, Lin Xiao worked overtime until midnight, and he and another technician were the only ones left in the company.
Lin Xiao glanced at the time, turned to the technician and said:
"Xiao Liu, let's leave it at that for today!"
"There's no end to the code. I'll do it tomorrow."
Xiao Liu stopped what he was doing and shifted his gaze from the computer screen to Lin Xiao's face.
"I know, Mr. Lin."
After they finished talking, they started closing the programs on their computers, packing up and leaving get off work.
When they reached the office door, they found a uniformed security guard standing at the door of 1807, covering his face and looking into the room through the crack in the door.
The two looked at each other, both feeling puzzled.
Without waiting for them to ask, the security guard started laughing. The laughter sounded like an innocent young man smiling foolishly at the girl he liked.
"Then I'll come back tomorrow."
The security guard said this to the inside of the door and left on his own.
After the security guard left, Lin Xiao and Xiao Liu took a look into office 1807, but it was pitch black and they couldn't see anything.
Lin Xiao understood the situation in Office 1807 and didn't want any more accidents to happen, so he turned to Xiao Liu and said:
"Maybe he's just been watching too many short videos and talking to himself!"
"Come on, I'll treat you to a midnight snack."
Xiao Liu smiled, stopped looking into office 1807, and followed Lin Xiao into the elevator.
The next day, Lin Xiao continued to work overtime, and this time he was the only one left in the company.
He stretched himself and glanced at the time.
It's almost midnight and there's really not enough time.
After he packed his things, he walked to the switch in the lobby at the entrance and was about to turn off the light when he caught a glimpse of a man in a security uniform standing at the door of Room 1807 next door.
He looked closely and saw that it was the same security guard from yesterday.
The difference was that this time the security guard did not peek inside through the crack in the door, but instead came out of office 1807 with his trousers held up, his belt tugged at, and his head lowered.
Lin Xiao's brows were tightly furrowed into the shape of a "川" character. He couldn't understand why the security guard came out of 1807. The property staff in this building should all know what happened in office 1807.
How could anyone dare to go in... After all, people on the same floor would go around it.
He came to his senses and wanted to talk to the security guard, but when he looked up, he couldn't even see the other person.
Lin Xiao shook his head and sighed softly.
Let’s wait until tomorrow. The security guard should come again tomorrow night.
What Lin Xiao didn't expect was that when he waited at the door early the next day, there was no sign of the security guard. Just when he was wondering, two patrolling security guards passed by him.
"Hey! Have you heard about Xiao Zhao?"
"Isn't he in the hospital because of illness?"
"Do you know what's wrong with him?"
"I'm not sure about that, but he's lost a lot of weight these past few days. His cheeks are sunken, and he has dark circles under his eyes. He looks pretty scary."
"When he fainted this morning, another colleague and I took him to the hospital. The doctor said he had done that too much and it had drained his body."
"what?"
After hearing the real reason why Xiao Liu fell ill, Lin Xiao was as surprised as the other security guard.
He easily connected the security guard's illness with the female ghost in 1807. After all, he saw the security guard lingering at the door of 1807's office two nights ago and said something intriguing.
Lin Xiao was lost in thought and didn't realize that the door of Room 1807 was opened from the inside, which scared him.
The other person was a man in a suit and tie. He also saw Lin Xiao, and an unnatural expression appeared on his face. Then he hurried away.
Lin Xiao seemed to be talking to himself: "Why did she start to hurt people?"
Suddenly, the door to Office 1807 began to shake violently, as if someone was operating the door handle.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
"Where are you? Why don't you dare come out to see me?"
thumping!
The light bulb on the ceiling of the hall exploded, and glass fragments fell on Lin Xiao's head, leaving more than a dozen small wounds on his face.
"Lin Xiao!"
The man who was standing there in a daze was awakened by a call, and he looked towards the elevator entrance.
His girlfriend Ruyi was looking at him with concern. When their eyes met in the air, the other ran over without hesitation.
Ruyi grabbed Lin Xiao's arm and said, "Are you okay? Lin Xiao!"
Lin Xiao looked at his girlfriend, his consciousness gradually returning, and he smiled gently.
"It's okay, I just need to find a technician to check the lights tomorrow."
Ruyi carefully stroked the wound on Lin Xiao's face, feeling heartbroken beyond words.
"I asked you if you were okay... and you didn't tell me the truth?"
"Who was that man who just came out of 1807?"
"What did you say to 1807? Why...why did she suddenly become aggressive towards you?"
Lin Xiao opened her mouth slightly. When did Ruyi come... Did she see it all?
