Chapter 14 Strange Community
Cao Bo and others went out of the school gate and took a taxi directly. Sun Yuyang sat in the co-pilot, while Cao Bo and Xiao Hui sat in the back row.
Cao Bo has had a bad feeling since just now. He didn't understand himself, but he felt that he was a little confused.
What is the reason? Cao Bo's face was calm, and his body leaned against the car door without saying a word. Sun Yuyang was also a person who couldn't beat a fart with a stick, so that the car became dull.
During Xiaohui's period, he provoked two words, but Cao Bo really didn't talk about it, so he didn't talk to the other party. Finally, he made Xiaohui feel bored and shut up.
It was getting dark. Cao Bo leaned against the window and saw the lights outside.
Cao Bo couldn't help sighing in his heart. Why do some people live so freely, but they have to worry about three meals?
Wh! Cao Bo took advantage of the light shot in from outside and saw something at his feet emitting a faint light.
Cao Bo saw that it was a one-dollar coin, and he didn't know which passenger dropped it before.
"Is there any activity over there?" Cao Bo pointed to the other side, and Xiao Hui was sitting there.
"Do you have it? Is there a special price in the mall? After all, Xiaohui is a girl. As soon as she hears something, her eyes are straight.
Cao Bo took the opportunity of Xiao Hui to look out. He quickly bent down and picked up the coin, and then held it tightly in the palm of his hand.
You can buy two steamed buns in the canteen for this one yuan!
"Where are the activities?" Xiaohui didn't know that this was Cao Bo's trick. She looked back at Cao Bo in disappointment, because she didn't see any activities on the street just now.
"I saw it just now! It's a sea of people. Did you miss it? Cao Bo only felt that his hands were full of sweat, and the coin was almost drained by him.
"No way? Young man?" The driver looked at Cao Bo through the rearview mirror, and his expression was a little strange.
"We passed Houshou Road just now. Can you really see the sea of people?" The driver not only had a strange expression, but also his voice trembled a little, because Houshou Road specializes in longevity clothes, ingots, paper money, and is usually deserted and rarely seen...
Cao Bo was suddenly embarrassed, and the co-pilot Sun Yuyang sneered. This time, his reaction was not slow.
"Isn't it? Cao Bo?" Xiao Hui also had a surprised expression: "Did you really see it?"
Cao Bo not only had a cold sweat on his hands, but also on his back.
"Maybe I don't have enough rest. Was it dazzled just now?" Cao Bo was explaining that suddenly his stomach made a series of 'gurgling' sounds, and then he remembered that he hadn't eaten dinner yet.
"I must be hungry!" Cao Bo said it with a sworn oath, and finally found a reason, otherwise he would let others be monsters.
Xiaohui seemed to accept this reason. She made a few jokes with Cao Bo, but heard from Sun Yuyang that she had arrived at the place.
Thank you! Cao Bo quickly climbed out of the carriage. When the warm spring breeze blew on Cao Bo, he found that most of his clothes were wet.
For a dollar, you have to lie and be laughed at...
Cao Bo felt a little aggrieved. Originally, he planned to throw away this dollar far away, but on second thought, Cao Bo put the coin in his pocket again.
You have to live a backbone! Cao Bo did not allow such a thing to happen again! And this coin was used as a warning by him.
Brother Sun's house is not far from Houshou Road. It seems that he is not very rich, otherwise he can't buy a house here.
In the eyes of some people, the feng shui here is not good, but Cao Bo just feels that the location of the buildings in front of him is quite remote, and Cao Bo can't see the others.
Sun Yuyang called and told Cao Bo that his brother was waiting at home. Now it's time for those damn cockroaches to go out at night.
Cao Bo and Xiao Hui followed Sun Yuyang to the building complex. These houses should be built by a developer, because they are all seven-story buildings with a unified style.
It is a little remote here, and the temperature should be slightly lower than in the city. And now it's cold spring, and it's a little cold to wear a coat at night.
But when Cao Bo came in, he felt waves of warmth all around him.
"Isn't it? Is there geothermal heat in the whole community? Cao Bo was a little surprised, because there was indeed a big gap between the temperature outside and here.
"What kind of geothermal!" Sun Yuyang indignantly pointed to a puddle not far away and said, "The heating pipe here is cracked, which not only makes water everywhere, but also seriously affects the indoor temperature because of the leakage of warm water."
"You didn't know last winter!" Sun Yuyang told Cao Bo that at that time, the temperature outside was higher than that in the house, and many owners also complained that it was useless at all!
What a waste! At the beginning, Cao Bo saw the puddle with a diameter of more than ten meters. He thought it was the community that made an artificial lake or something, but now when he looked at the moonlight, there was still water vapor on the water.
"The heating here originally made my sister-in-law unhappy, but now there are cockroaches..." Sun Yuyang sighed here, and then continued to lead Cao Bo and the other to one of the buildings.
Brother Sun's house is on the second floor. When Cao Bo saw him, he saw the man in his early thirties with a sad face.
"Here you are!" Brother Sun was still very happy to see Cao Bo. He enthusiastically let Cao Bo into the room and poured him and Xiao Hui two glasses of juice.
The decoration of the room is very simple, but overall it looks very refreshing and clean.
"It's those damn cockroaches, a good wedding room!" Brother Sun couldn't help sighing again when he said this.
"That's why I'm here." Cao Bo also sympathizes with the other party. Since he is here, he has to try his best to help others?
Cao Bo suggested that he go around, while Brother Sun accompanied Xiao Hui to chat in the living room.
"Are there any cockroaches in this house?" Cao Bo walked into the house and took out Jiang Gan.
"Wait for my subordinates to explore!" Jiang Gan lay in the palm of Cao Bo's hand, and his two beards swayed back and forth like antennas, as if detecting the position of cockroaches.
Cao Bo took this opportunity to look around. He saw that the decorations in the room were very simple, and there were almost no dark corners. In Cao Bo's opinion, he couldn't see any cockroaches in some places where cockroaches liked to appear.
"Is it strange?" Jiang Gan finally gave Cao Bo a similar conclusion: "In this house, my subordinates have not detected traces of cockroaches..."
No way? Cao Bo couldn't help but feel nervous after listening to Jiang Gan's words. If there are really no cockroaches in this room, what is the purpose of Sun Yuyang bringing him here?
Why did they lie to themselves? Besides, Cao Bo, a poor man, is not worth cheating!
"But..." Jiang Gan's beard suddenly stopped, and his voice was also full of surprise.
"I feel that there seems to be some force in the distance, which is obviously very weak, but I feel that it is rolling in. It's so strong!" What Jiang Gan said was not only understood by Cao Bo, but also very contradictory.
Jiang Gan is now quite sensitive to cockroaches. If he can feel it, it means that there are indeed cockroaches in the distance.
But what he said is weak and strong, which can't be explained.
Cao Bo put Jiang Gan back in his pocket, and then turned back to the living room to ask what was going on.
But Cao Bo went out and looked into the living room, but he couldn't help but be surprised! Because there is no one there at this time, only a few cups with juice can prove that someone has just sat here!
"No way?" Cao Bo stopped and held his breath. He glanced around alertly, and still didn't see anyone in the open kitchen.
"Is it in the middle?" Jiang Gan took Cao Bo's pocket and looked out. It seemed that he also felt the tense atmosphere at this time...
"Shh..." Cao Bo booed softly, and then told Jiang Gan not to come out. It would be more troublesome if people found a talking cockroach.
Cao Boping listened to the movement around him quietly, but at this time, a sharp cry suddenly came from the direction of the bathroom!
Listening to the cry, Xiaohui came out, and the position where Cao Bo stood happened to be unable to see the bathroom.
Is something wrong? Cao Bo hurried to the bathroom in his heart, and Jiang Gan hurriedly got out of his pocket and shouted, "I'm coming! Here we go!"
What's coming? Cao Bozheng didn't know what Jiang Gan was talking about, but suddenly saw dozens of cockroaches gushing out of the bathroom!
What's going on? When Cao Bo entered the house just now, he checked the bathroom at the first time, but he didn't see a cockroach at that time.
And Xiaohui's scream came from the bathroom again. Cao Bo rushed into the bathroom and trampled a few cockroaches along the way.
"What's the matter?" As soon as Cao Bo entered the door, he saw Xiao Hui sitting on the washstand with a frightened expression on his face.
Sun Yuyang and Brother Sun stood at the mouth of the sewer. Although they stepped on cockroaches in a hurry, many leaking fish rushed into the house.
"It's like this at this time every day!" Brother Sun's face was full of depression, and Sun Yuyang seemed to be used to it. He finally stopped, because cockroaches no longer crawl out of the sewer.
Isn't this too exaggerated? If Cao Bo hadn't seen it with his own eyes just now, he wouldn't even believe it.
Cao Bo glanced at Xiao Hui and saw that she was just a little panicked and not injured. Cao Bo was finally relieved.
It turned out that these three people were not in the living room just now, but came to the bathroom.
"This thing is evil!" Brother Sun told Cao Bo that cockroaches were rarely seen in the room during the day, but in the evening, these cockroaches climbed into the house like an alarm clock.
What Brother Sun said is basically the same as Jiang Gan, and Cao Bo finally understood what Jiang Gan just said.
Those cockroaches must be hidden in the pipe, but what makes them come out within a specific time?
Cao Bo can't figure it out for a while. If things are so easy to think about, will Brother Sun still come to him?
"Brother, why don't we kill all the cockroaches in the house first!" Sun Yuyang proposed so, because the main purpose of Cao Bo's visit this time was to eliminate cockroaches.
"Uh-huh!" Brother Sun nodded, then gritted his teeth and said, "Kill them all! Don't leave any of them!"
ps: Well, it's the eleventh question of the Hundred Questions of Fire!
In fact, the first question of this book is very simple. These chapters of clues have also been given to everyone. Who can tell the reason for the strange behavior of these cockroaches?
