Chapter 2525: Chapter 1689: Abnormal Situation (Yan Yun’s Plot is Pretty Good)_2

Duanmu Huai slid his phone, sipping on some tea.

"At the time, the police asked the neighbors and concluded that the couple was in discord, the husband accidentally killed his wife and daughter, and then committed suicide. Hmm, same room, same location, also with the same red necktie."

"Hmm...... this is a bit creepy."

Banai shivered.

"Then the fourth and sixth homeowners were also like this, all were families of three, all died by suicide in unexpected circumstances. Actually, the police had also investigated directions like vendetta or poisoning, but no matter how they investigated, all they could find were traces of suicide, so they could only close the case as suicide."

"Then the third and fifth homeowners...... uh......"

Banai hadn’t finished speaking but came back to his senses.

"Are they laundry houses?"

"That’s right."

Duanmu Huai also put down his phone at this moment, pondered for a moment, then again sent a message to Mikazuki Mika, asking her to investigate all the properties owned by this real estate company as well as the records of incidents that occurred in these properties.

Why can police tell if someone is a criminal?

The reason is simple, experience is the key.

Thieves are different from ordinary people, sometimes the police can tell if someone is a thief just by their actions or gaze.

In a word, it depends on skill and experience.

This is also applicable to this real estate company.

Looking at how skillfully this real estate company laundries houses, Duanmu Huai did not believe they were purely good people. Chances are this real estate company has more than one haunted house.

[Understood, I’ll investigate right now!]

Mikazuki Mika’s response was quick, almost instant, well, having such an efficient assistant is quite reassuring.

"We want to visit her house, can we go now?"

"Hmm...... let me ask."

Banai took out his phone and started typing furiously.

"No problem, she’s at a family restaurant right now!"

According to Banai, since suspecting her home to be a haunted house, Honda has been staying at the restaurant until late every day before returning home. Because of these matters, her friends also don’t dare to accompany her home. So upon learning that Banai and others wanted to visit her house, Honda was quite delighted.

As Honda said, her house isn’t far from school, taking about half an hour. From the outside, it just looks like an ordinary two-story building with a yard, nothing else. It looks no different from many standalone houses where people live.

Looking at this house, both Banai and Chitanda were somewhat surprised because after hearing what Honda and Duanmu Huai had said, they subconsciously believed it should be like those dark and dilapidated, mysterious houses seen in horror movies. However, unexpectedly, the house appeared bright and clean, certainly unrelated to a haunted house.

Meanwhile, Duanmu Huai curiously raised his head, observed the house briefly, then retracted his gaze and followed the others inside.

"Please come in."

Honda took out a key, opened the door, let the three in and said quietly.

"Mom’s not home, she, like me, feels there’s something odd about this place, so she returns home very late every day."

"How about your father?"

"Dad...... has been busy with work these days, also coming home late."

Speaking to this point, Honda’s expression became somewhat gloomy.

"I’ve heard dad’s work hasn’t been going well lately, so he’s been in a bad mood when coming home and often quarrels with mom......"

"......"

Upon hearing Honda’s words, Banai and Chitanda exchanged a glance, involuntarily recalling the investigation report Duanmu Huai had previously shared with them.

After this, the group arrived at Honda’s bedroom, which was no different from an ordinary girl’s bedroom, decorated quite cutely. Honda went to prepare tea and snacks for the three, and after Honda left, Banai immediately turned to Duanmu Huai.

"Xiao Ai, have you discovered anything?"

After all, Banai and Chitanda were clueless about this, so if anything had to be said, it was entirely reliant on Duanmu Huai.

"Discoveries? Yes, a bit, but not much."

Duanmu Huai glanced around.

"Let’s start with the conclusion, here...... seems like there’s no ghost."

"Huh?"

It’s true, this answer was beyond Banai and Chitanda’s expectations.

"None?"

"Yeah, at least not now."

Duanmu Huai was also surprised. He originally thought it might be similar to an earth-bound spirit or Curse Spirit, but Duanmu Huai looked around and found the house was clean beyond measure, just an ordinary house. If not for some residual Curse Spirit energy inside, there wouldn’t have been anything at all.

However, this was rather odd.

According to Duanmu Huai’s experience, such a house wouldn’t be this clean, having had so many deaths, there would usually be some Spiritual Energy reaction, yet the reaction here was so weak, instead alerting Duanmu Huai.

After all, when things go abnormal, there must be a devil.

At this moment, Honda returned to the room carrying tea and snacks.

"Please enjoy."

"Thanks...... Honda, I’d like to ask something."

As Duanmu Huai spoke, he gestured towards the neighbor across the street.

"Have you seen the neighbor across the street?"

"Uh? You mean Ms. Da Mu? I’ve seen her several times...... she’s very nice and treats us well. She even mentioned to me that this house isn’t quite normal......"

"Oh......"

Duanmu Huai nodded his head, didn’t say more, only thoughtfully gazed at the house across.

Since there were no ghosts in this house, the three didn’t conduct any further investigation, simply chatted with Honda and then took their leave.

"Somewhat disappointing."

Walking on the street, Banai stretched lazily.

"I thought there would be some strange experience, but that house was just an ordinary house, right."

"But...... why did Honda and her parents become like this? And, Xiao Ai also investigated that house, indeed many people died there, right."

"Hmm...... perhaps it’s a coincidence?"

Banai didn’t quite believe it himself.

"Maybe she’s overthinking."

At this point, Duanmu Huai spoke.

"She also mentioned her father’s work hasn’t been smooth recently. People always have rough times at work, impatience and irritability can affect the family environment, so occasional quarreling isn’t impossible. After all, we’re only hearing from her, maybe she just wants to blame the changes in her family environment on external factors, rather than her parents’ discord."

"That makes sense......"

Chitanda nodded slightly.

"I can understand, after all, everyone is constantly changing, what one saw as a child is not necessarily the same upon growing up......"

"Alright, let’s head back."

Duanmu Huai glanced back at the house and then retracted his gaze.

"It’s getting late, we’ll handle the rest tomorrow."
