A Core Ship From The Start Chapter 699

Chapter 699: Chapter 515 Apartment_3 Chapter 699: Chapter 515 Apartment_3 According to this artist, this grand, medium, small-scale vision would enable observers to appreciate and experience their daily life from different perspectives.

Of course, Duanmu Huai also thought this was pretty fun, no wonder this artist's exhibition was popular. However, this exhibition couldn't keep going forever, the artist was already planning his next project, so he originally planned to sell off the apartment.

As for the furniture inside, it would have to be disposed of if no one takes over.

On the contrary, Duanmu Huai's arrival excited the artist. At least… his meticulously crafted creations didn't have to be disposed off.

Not only was the artist jubilant, Duanmu Huai was excited too. After all, the apartment was handcrafted by the artist himself. Let alone the exquisite style, the artist's craftsmanship was not bad. Amazingly, for perfection, the artist really oversized everything, from the door, coat hangers to the sofa, and even the fireplace, recliners, window plant pots, and utensils were all made to suit his own size.

For Duanmu Huai, this was a ready-made home, nothing was missing.

As for the ordinary rooms on the second floor, Lorena could stay there, the third floor, well… let Ling'Nu and Tutu, the two pets, wreak havoc there.

The two parties quickly finalized the matter. Originally, the artist planned to give the apartment to Duanmu Huai directly. As per him, he could only dream of someone like Duanmu Huai, now he unexpectedly exists in reality, indeed there are always people beyond people, and heaven beyond the sky……

Um? Didn't that sound a bit off?

In the end, Duanmu Huai didn't accept the apartment for free, he wasn't short of money and he also didn't want the hassle of accepting a favor. After a long discussion, in the end, the artist decided to sell it for half the price. Duanmu Huai agreed, then they signed a contract, made the payment and took the keys……

“Oh yes, sir.”

Just when everything seemed resolved, the artist recalled something, hurriedly retracting his hand.

“Before the final handover, I must warn you, this apartment…seems to have a little problem.”

“What problem?”

Upon hearing the artist, Duanmu Huai was taken aback.

“Well… ”
The artist had gotten too excited seeing Duanmu Huai earlier, now that he had cooled down, he remembered something and hurriedly explained it to Duanmu Huai.

It turned out, when the artist originally bought this apartment for the exhibition, he acquired it at a very cheap price. He found it strange that such a prime location had remained vacant for so long with no takers, and the price was so cheap. Later, an artist's friend found out and told him why.

Apparently, this apartment previously belonged to a businessman in Fog City who was in the shipping business. At that time, his business was thriving, and he had a harmonious family with a wife and daughter.

But… facing unpredictable catastrophes … wait, that didn't sound right.

Either way, one day, tragedy struck this family. The neighbors hadn't seen them for several days, and later a nauseating smell emanated from their house. Unable to bear it, the neighbors notified the police. When the police arrived and forced open the house door, they found the businessman, his wife, and his daughter all dead. Their state of death was miserable.

At that time, this turned into a major case of Fog City, and the conclusion drawn from the police investigation left everyone dumbfounded.

According to the police investigation, the person who killed the family was none other than the couple's daughter, who killed her sleeping parents with a kitchen cleaver and then slit her own throat.

This investigation outcome left everyone in shock. The girl was just twelve or thirteen years old, a lively and cute child in everyday life. How could she suddenly turn into a murderer? Could the police have made a mistake?

That's what was said, but the results of the investigation stood, and finally, the police closed the case as a suicide. This event caused a sensation for a while and was then gradually forgotten.

Then, this apartment was sold to another wealthy businessman.

Half a month later, another incident occurred.

This time, everyone was awakened by a scream in the middle of the night. When they turned on their lights to look outside, they saw the apartment door busted open, a bloody fat man stumbled out while his daughter, a ten-year-old girl with a twisted face holding a kitchen knife, chased after him, stabbing him repeatedly, effectively murdering him in the middle of the street.

By the time the police arrived, the girl slit her own throat and died in front of everybody – neighbors and police.

This scared everyone, and almost all residents chose to move out. Many suspected that the apartment was cursed and fled.

After that, no one lived in the apartment again.

Admittedly, the story is quite spooky, but the artist didn't mind as he didn't live there. However… the artist had to admit, there was something eerie about the apartment.

According to him, there were several instances when he came early in the morning and found the furniture he had prepared in different places, or even dismantled. Angered, he thought local hooligans were playing tricks, so he hired a few people to guard it overnight. But the next day, those guys ran off, claiming the apartment was haunted.

Although the exhibition gradually became popular later, such strange incidents stopped happening, but the artist did hear some weird stories from some guests.

For instance, they sometimes said they saw a girl in a white nightgown lying on the bed on the third floor, or that furniture in the room moved by itself, etc. Although the artist never noticed anything unusual when he checked, so many people saying such things did worry him to an extent.

With Duanmu Huai intending to buy the apartment and reside in it, the artist immediately recalled the incident and quickly explained it to Duanmu Huai.

After listening to the artist, Duanmu Huai's eyes lit up.

Buying a satisfactory apartment and it's haunted too?

Such good fortunes existed?

Well, there's no need to say more, I'm buying it!
