Stepping out of room 3, Lin Jue pulled the landlord into the hallway. Looking at the workers constantly carrying boxes upstairs, he lowered his voice and asked, "You said the new tenant is named Wu Fang?"

"Is there a problem?" The landlord looked like he was savoring something, seemingly very fond of the new tenant: "I've never seen such a beautiful woman in my life."

Seeing the guy's expression, he probably really hadn't seen that woman. The name Wu Fang was indeed quite common.

After a few seconds of silence, Lin Jue continued to ask, "Do you remember the previous tenant of room 3, also named Wu Fang?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed the landlord staring at him with a strange expression.

"Fu Yu, did you have memory problems after going out? Room 3 has always been empty. Where would there be a tenant?"

As he spoke, he reached out and touched Lin Jue's forehead: "You don't have a fever. I thought you were delirious."

Room 3 has always been empty?

Then who is the person written about in Fu Yu's diary?

Or is the landlord lying?

A room that has always been empty has a new tenant moving in, and the name matches the one in Fu Yu's diary. What exactly is going on?

"Maybe I remembered it wrong." Lin Jue didn't show any unusual emotion on his face, still looking indifferent.

"Ouch!"

Just then, a worker carrying a box tripped while going up the stairs. The wooden box fell to the ground, and a corner was shattered, revealing the contents inside.

It had a grayish-plaster luster.

"Are you okay?" Lin Jue walked over and helped the worker up, picking up the box at the same time.

Looking through the hole, the box contained a human head sculpture, but it was not in a realistic style, but rather an abstract style.

Round eyes, a pointed mouth, a thin face, and a rectangular nose. It didn't look like a human, but rather a humanoid creature.

"It's a sculpture."

"This Wu Fang is obviously the neighbor recorded in Fu Yu's diary, but why does the landlord say that room 3 has always been empty? Is he lying to me? That shouldn't be the case. He hasn't realized that I'm a fake Fu Yu, so he wouldn't lie to me…"

"Could it be that Fu Yu has some kind of precognitive ability? He wrote down future events in his diary, but there's also a novelist in the diary, and the novelist hasn't appeared…"

Lin Jue frowned. The beginning of this plot could be said to be full of doubts, with one question after another.

"I don't know why that woman is moving so many boxes. It's really…"

The worker was about to complain, but after seeing Lin Jue's scarred face, he paused, said thank you, and hurriedly took the box and left.

The move lasted until noon. Lin Jue went out to find the shop written about in Fu Yu's diary.

In five minutes, he stopped outside a small grocery store. The owner was an old man of about sixty, lazily lying on a deck chair, basking in the sun.

"The diary says this is the only store within a few hundred meters. This should be it."

Lin Jue walked over and softly called out, "Boss."

"Hmm?" The old man slightly opened his eyes. He seemed to be very familiar with Fu Yu, and he smiled as he propped himself up from the deck chair: "Young man, I haven't seen you in a long time. Where have you been?"

"I went out to take care of some things." Lin Jue walked into the store, took two bags of laundry detergent from the counter, and pretended to ask casually while paying, "Boss, do you remember a female tenant who lived in my building before? It was about a month ago."

This is the only store open nearby, so Wu Fang would have had to come here to buy things before. The boss should have an impression.

Perhaps he could find out from the boss whether the landlord or the diary was the problem.

"You mean that very beautiful woman who wore a black dress every day?" The boss said while looking for change: "Of course I remember. There aren't many people on this street anyway. Although I'm old, my memory is still very good."

"That woman often came to my place with her husband to buy things. I heard her husband is a novelist, named something like…"

"Crazy…"

"Feng Jue Shisan." Lin Jue added.

"Yes, yes, that's the name." The boss handed a few crumpled bills to Lin Jue: "That writer even took his own novel to me to sell. I flipped through it, but I couldn't understand what he wrote, so I didn't buy it."

Lin Jue put the money in his pocket, picked up the laundry detergent, thanked the boss, and turned to leave.

Fu Yu's diary is not the problem. The landlord is the problem.

Wu Fang is that Wu Fang. The landlord is lying.

"Why is the landlord lying to me? The disappeared Wu Fang has moved back again."

"The time Wu Fang disappeared before and the time Fu Yu disappeared should be about the same. After Wu Fang disappeared, Fu Yu disappeared. Now that 'Fu Yu' is back, Wu Fang is also back."

"Are the landlord and Wu Fang plotting something?"

Lin Jue walked downstairs and looked up.

Just then, he saw Wu Fang by the window. She also noticed him, smiled sweetly at him, and then suddenly pulled the curtains shut.

Lin Jue withdrew his gaze, returned to his room, took out Zhou Yue's white coat, threw it in a basin, poured some laundry detergent, and added water to soak it.

This white coat was covered in black blood stains and needed to be cleaned.

He sat at the desk again and pulled out the novel titled "Trap" from the pile of novels.

The latest and greatest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

The novel cover was a pure black background with a blooming, delicate rose, but the thorns on the rose branches were sharp knives, and the tips of the knives were dripping with blood.

"Trap"

By Feng Jue Shisan.

These were the lines of scarlet text on the title page.

【I walk on a path called love. I thought it was the thorns of the rose that scratched me, but little did I know that it was the sharp blade that killed me.】

Looking at this introduction, Lin Jue could roughly guess that this novel was mostly about a story of betrayal by a lover, similar to the "Under the Bed" script. The closest person on the pillow eventually became the murderer who killed him.

Lin Jue didn't finish reading the last page of the novel until evening.

As he guessed, this novel tells the story of a rich man who meets a very beautiful woman. The woman is gentle and virtuous, and generous, and soon makes the rich man infatuated with her.

But in reality, this is just the woman's carefully crafted disguise, all in order to make the rich man fall into a sugar-coated trap.

The woman is a bloodsucker, greedily absorbing all the wealth of the rich man, completely draining him before dumping him.

But the rich man was unwilling to break up like this, and kept saying that he would sue the woman and recover all the money. In the end, the woman became malicious and, together with her lover, killed the rich man with a fruit knife and buried the body in a rose garden.

The story ends here. The woman's final fate is not mentioned in this novel.

Moreover, this novel is written in the first person from the rich man's point of view, which gives the impression that the author is writing his own story.

"Fu Yu's diary said that one day Feng Jue Shisan and Wu Fang had a conflict because the latter was cheating, and then Feng Jue Shisan disappeared, and Wu Fang's house had an extra sculpture."

"In the novel, the rich man's girlfriend also cheated and killed the rich man with her lover."

"Moreover, this novel was sold to Fu Yu by Feng Jue Shisan. Did this writer realize that Wu Fang would attack him? So he sold this novel to Fu Yu in order to get Fu Yu to call the police."

Suddenly, Lin Jue's eyes moved.

Is it possible that Wu Fang's affair was with the landlord?

Wu Fang killed Feng Jue Shisan at the time, and Fu Yu overheard this. Because the sound of the conflict was loud, Wu Fang knew that Fu Yu must have heard it, so she wanted to join forces with the landlord to eliminate Fu Yu.

As a result, Fu Yu suddenly disappeared. Wu Fang had no way to start, so she had to move away.

A month later, he returned here playing Fu Yu, and the landlord, as Wu Fang's lover, began to report, so Wu Fang moved back again, wanting to do it again!
