Chapter 205 She Is My Sister
"Close the door quickly." The woman seemed to know that she was a little scary, and hurried into the back room.
"Okay." Chen Ge didn't lock the door, leaving a finger-wide gap. He had already started to think about a way back before he entered the house.
Standing in the living room with a bag on his back, Chen Ge looked towards the back room. The woman was sitting beside the bed, covered with a thin quilt: "The house is messy, don't dislike it, just sit down."
The woman's house wasn't too messy, but there were a lot of medicine bottles thrown around. Chen Ge picked it up and looked at it. It was all in English, and he could only recognize a small part of it.
"Don't mess with my things." The woman whispered. She looked at Chen Ge with a hint of uncertainty in her eyes: "What's in your backpack? I don't think you're here to buy a house."
"Although the bag is broken, my belongings are all inside." Chen Ge said casually: "The location of your house is very good, but the price needs to be negotiated."
"My house has a lot of room for appreciation. If I didn't need money urgently right now, I wouldn't sell anything." The woman's skin was unhealthy white, which gave people a strange feeling.
"I'm taking the liberty to ask, what's wrong with you? You need to buy a house to raise money." Chen Ge didn't come to buy a house at all, and he started talking as soon as he came up.
"Cancer." The woman pointed to her face: "After long-term chemotherapy, my hair and eyebrows are all gone."
"Sorry." Chen Ge didn't expect to get such an answer.
"I'm thinking about how many more days I can live now. It's only at this time that people think that they can live a few more days." A woman sells a house to prolong her life. It seems right at first, but Thinking about it carefully, I always feel that there is a problem.
"Let's talk about the price."
The woman made a big concession, offering a price 30 percent less than comparable houses on the market.
"If you agree, tomorrow I can go through the relevant procedures with the documents."
"It's not that I'm taking advantage of the fire, the price you paid is a bit high." Chen Ge looked very entangled when he wanted to make a full play.
"Is the price too high?"
"I sympathize with your experience, but every yard is a yard. I asked before I came here. Your house was haunted a few years ago, so it has never been sold." Chen Ge patted his backpack: " I'm a daring person, plus I'm really short of money,
There's no other way to think about selling your house. "
The woman knew she was right, and she asked again, "Then how much are you going to pay?"
"One-tenth of the market price, I only have so much money."
"One-tenth?!" The woman was exasperated: "You still said you weren't taking advantage of the fire?"
"After all, there was a haunted house in that house. Buying a house is a lifetime event. If it wasn't for the lack of money, I wouldn't buy a haunted house." Chen Ge completely assumed his role. There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes. After seeing the woman's situation, I couldn't bear it: "How about we take a step back, I know you bought a house in exchange for life-saving money, I can borrow it from friends and relatives, but the price you offer is too high, I can't afford it ."
Maybe it was because the house hadn't been sold for a long time, and the woman was desperate, she kept silent for a long time: "One tenth is too little, my bottom line is half of the market price, if you want it, I'll entrust a guarantee company tomorrow. I'll go through the formalities with you, if you don't want to, forget it."
"Half..." Chen Ge lowered his head and seemed to be distressed.
"Don't listen to other people's nonsense, the owner of the community has never been injured, how can it be haunted?" The woman was half lying on the bed, she noticed Chen Ge's tone was loose, and began to persuade.
"Don't lie to me. The security guard in your community personally told me that he saw a white shadow get into your house a few years ago, and then the police went too. You were not at home that night, so you may not know these things." Chen Ge followed the other party's words and began to slowly ask what he wanted to know.
"How could I not know about my own house?" The woman sighed, with a trace of struggle in her eyes: "Actually, I never wanted to mention this, that Bai Ying is not a ghost."
"Not a ghost?" Chen Ge's heart suddenly lifted, and the whole thing was likely to take an unexpected turn.
"Yes, that Bai Ying is my sister, she is a mentally ill person who has just been picked up from the hospital." The woman looked in pain and coughed violently: "My sister did something wrong when she was very young, her illness That's when she was discovered, and she's been put in a mental hospital since then, and she didn't come out until four or five years ago."
"Wrong thing? Is it serious?" The information of the woman's sister basically matched that of the patient in Room 2, and Chen Ge listened more seriously.
"Very serious, it was that incident that ruined her life." The woman felt sorry for her sister: "My sister's situation is quite special, she belongs to a patient who needs to be isolated and treated, and there is a certain danger. If discovered by the police, She may be forcibly removed and put back in the hospital."
"So you hid her in your own home?"
"My sister has recovered very well after more than ten years of treatment." The woman's tone changed, and it seemed that this was an irrefutable question: "How many decades in a person's life? She suffered too much in the first half of her life. Sin, you should also enjoy life and enjoy the happiness of being born as a human being.”
Chen Ge always felt that the woman's words sounded uncomfortable: "You hid your sister in your own home, but you didn't expect her to run out to scare the neighbors by herself, so this is the truth of the haunting back then?"
"Yes, the so-called hauntings are all made up by those people who want to make up their own minds."
"Then where did your sister go? You are seriously ill now, and she won't come to take care of you?"
"I don't know where she went. I haven't seen her since that night." The woman looked a little helpless: "She is my only relative, and sometimes I go to Fanghuayuan to see , I hope to wait for her."
"It's the same person who has fallen from the end of the world. I understand your pain very well. If no one buys it, you can keep your house for me first, and I'll go to raise money tomorrow." Chen Ge said with sincerity and thought. But to temporarily stabilize the woman, he urgently needs to determine another thing.
"Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow." The woman took the initiative to terminate the conversation. She seemed a little tired and leaned on the bedside weakly.
"See you tomorrow." Chen Ge got up and left with his bag on his back.
At the moment when the door of the apartment building closed, the expressions on the faces of the two people inside and outside the house changed.
Chen Ge stood there and typed a few English words he wrote down from the medicine bottle into his phone.
"As I guessed, this woman has a big problem. The medicines in her room are not related to the treatment of cancer. Most of them are medicines to promote wound healing and prevent allergies."
Taking a taxi to Fanghuayuan Community, Chen Ge called Team Li on the road and told him about Xinkang Apartment.
