The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1353 Arrival

boom!

Amidst the sound of tire rubber rubbing against the ground, Eckerd, who was just about to turn around, threw himself in front of the driver's seat. In his wide eyes, a white cat shadow flashed past.

Cat is a magical creature. It doesn't matter whether you are poor or rich, whether you are healthy or sick, and whether you are happy or sad, it... looks down on you.

Of course, most of the time, the appearance of a cat will attract people's attention, and even the idea of ​​​​petting and raising it will arise.

But in this quiet, dark street, the cat suddenly appeared, but it didn't make people have similar thoughts at all. A strange feeling had already filled everyone's hearts.

Ickerd climbed up in embarrassment, loosened his tie, twisted his uncomfortable back, and looked at Kieran subconsciously.

Kieran was still sitting there, his posture had not changed, and his face was still expressionless.

Normally seeing such an expression would be nothing, but at this time, Eckerd breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down.

"How about it?"

As Eckerd asked, he turned his head and looked around, as if he was worried that something unexpected would appear.

Obviously the deputy director was still a little worried.

"continue."

Kieran said calmly.

"drive!"

After hearing Qin Ran's answer, the deputy director finally breathed a sigh of relief. He patted the back of the seat behind him and motioned for the driver to continue.

The driver wanted very much to say no.

But he had no choice.

When facing such a choice in this world, there will always be a minority of people who have the right to say no.

even……

Less than expected.

The car started again.

Qin Ran was sitting in the chair, and out of the corner of his eye he glanced at Mei Huasheng in the seat next to him, recalling the white cat shadow just now.

Although it was fleeting, it was enough for Qin Ran to see everything clearly.

It was a cat with white fur, blue eyes, and strong limbs.

Very clean and beautiful.

Someone clearly kept this cat.

Judging from the activity radius of ordinary cats...

Qin Ran raised his head and looked at the building at the end of the alley.

Elwood Apartments!

"More careless than imagined."

"really……"

"Are you numb because it took too long?"

Qin Ran muttered to himself, and then he closed his eyes.

The unexpected information gave him more confidence.

And now?

All he needs to do is wait to reach his destination.

When the nanny car moved forward again, the interview car that had traveled a certain distance also started again.

The two cars drove towards their destination at a speed that was almost crawling, as if they hoped they would never arrive. But even at a crawling speed, facing this small alley that was not infinite in length, there was still a moment when they reached the end.

After this period of hard work, it was completely dark.

The third-floor Elwood Apartments stood in such darkness. Even if the lighting engineer turned on the searchlight, he could still only see a corner of the entire apartment.

Obviously, this apartment is much larger than it looks in the photos.

Kieran got out of the nanny car and walked straight to the apartment.

Behind him, the pale lights, cameras, and temporary guest host Eckerd were about to follow, but Kieran waved his hand.

"I need to check it out on my own."

"It won't be long, about fifteen minutes."

As Qin Ran said this, he walked slowly around the iron fence outside the apartment. Mei Huasheng, who remained silent the whole time, followed closely behind Qin Ran.

Qin Ran glanced around.

Mei Huasheng looked at Qin Ran.

Kieran felt that scrutinizing gaze again, but he ignored him at all, he was looking at other things.

The light of the flashlight shines through the iron fence on the dry garden, and clear shadows divide the garden into strips.

As Kieran's footsteps moved, such strips of shapes followed the light.

There are no flowers in the garden, only handfuls of weeds.

Such weeds grow extremely densely, and in some places they even break through the fence and grow outside. Similarly, it makes it difficult for people standing outside the apartment to see clearly what is inside the apartment without getting really close.

This is not only the case near the garden, but also at the small door at the back of the apartment and on the other side.

Overgrown with weeds is no longer enough to describe such a growing environment, it should be said that it is surrounded.

Kieran's eyes stayed on the small door for a moment.

Unlike the peeling paint and rust in other places, the two iron fences near the edge of the small gate need to be "new".

The corner of Qin Ran's mouth curled up.

He continued walking around Elwood's apartment without stopping. He started walking around the alley again. When the time was about to reach fifteen minutes, Kieran returned to the door of the apartment.

At this time, Eckerd, who was acting as the temporary host, had already started speaking to the camera.

"Good evening, everyone, we are..."

After describing the script process, the cameraman and lights immediately focused on Kieran.

Although they were very scared, their professional ethics still let them know what they should do.

Ignoring the lights and cameras, Kieran strode towards the apartment door.

The door has long been entangled with rusty iron chains, and at the end of the iron chain is a rusty iron lock.

The crew of the film crew immediately ran over with a saw to unlock the door.

"We obtained the entry permit here through formal channels, viewers should not imitate..."

Eckerd, who was holding the microphone, explained appropriately, but before he finished speaking, his voice stopped abruptly.

Because, when Qin Ran came running over, he raised his hand to touch the rusty iron lock.

In full view of everyone, the iron lock made a crisp sound——

Click!

Then, he just fell to the ground.

Without the restraint of the iron lock, the rusty iron chain immediately began to slip, and eventually fell to the ground like the iron lock.

Wow, bang.

Only with the dull sound of landing did the people around them come back to their senses.

After all, the guest host Eckerd was not a professional host. At this time, he was completely speechless. He just held the microphone and looked at Kieran's back stupidly.

The lighting and direction are professional.

Without the host to adjust the rhythm, he still followed Qin Ran closely.

They first clearly captured the scene of Kieran pointing his finger on the iron lock, and the iron lock and chain falling to the ground. Then, they captured the scene of Kieran pushing the door with no expression on his face.

The rusty door did not open in response.

But...

He fell straight to the ground.

boom!

With a sound many times louder than before, the iron door hit the stone floor heavily, and the dust that accumulated on the ground suddenly flew up.

In the light of the lighting engineer, dust is flying in the light, like smoke and fog.

In the photographer's lens, a figure just walked into the smoke.

Crunch, crunch.

The unique sound of metal came from under his feet.

He strode forward.

The sound of footsteps intertwined with the sound of metal twisting was not only loud, but also made people's hair stand on end.

No restraint at all.

No cover-up.

he……

It seemed that he was announcing his arrival without restraint.
