Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

Chapter 359: Distant Cousin Little Q

Big Tiger turned the car around and drove in a straight line.He said, "We pretended to be police officers and went in to search. I never expected we'd get results so quickly."

"But this method can only be used once. After using it once, we've already alerted the enemy. Even if we continue pretending to be police officers to search other places, we won't find anything useful."

Second Tiger spread his hands, "So what? It doesn't matter! With the three of us, I refuse to believe we can't find the other murderer!"

Big Tiger glanced at Second Tiger.

Among the three tigers, Second Tiger was the most handsome.

Even by outside standards, he fell into the handsome category.

Because of this, his luck with women was surprisingly good.

Whenever seduction was needed, he was the one who stepped up.

Big Tiger sighed, "Actually, that's not the fundamental reason. There's another one."

Second Tiger asked, "Which one?"

Third Tiger also leaned his head over.

But he remained his usual self, hardly speaking.

Big Tiger spoke while driving:

"I have a distant cousin named Xiao Q."

"I met him a few times when he was young. Although he was younger, we got along quite well because I discovered he loved criminal investigation, detective work, and horror supernatural stuff since childhood. Just like me."

"But later, since we were distant relatives after all, we hadn't seen each other for many years, only chatting occasionally on our phones."

"And then, about two or three months ago."

"He suddenly sent me some very strange text."

"The content went like this."

"Cousin, I signed an agreement and entered the Alice Apartment in Nancheng City. Staying here for one day earns me ten thousand yuan."

"I discovered this is real, but I also found out the secret of this apartment."

"This apartment seems to be a game set up by certain people."

"It houses many deranged criminals, deranged serial killers, and ordinary people like me who signed agreements to enter..."

"This was the first text he sent me. Later, at different times, he sent me other texts, intermittently."

"I thought this was a novel he was writing, since I also wrote this type of novel when I was young."

"So at the time, I didn't ask him if it was real. I thought he sent it to me for feedback on his novel."

"But after reading it, I didn't have much to suggest, so I just replied, 'Good concept.'"

"He just sent back a smiling emoji."

"Then one day not long ago, he suddenly sent me this text during a weird early morning hour:"

"Cousin, I'm currently on Macedonia Island. I think this island has countless connections with Alice Apartment, and the format should be similar to Alice Apartment."

"Right now, Xiao Peng I mentioned before—his ex-girlfriend was captured by the chainsaw murderer, forcing us to rescue her within fifteen minutes. We have to go now. Sigh, I have a feeling I might die here, though I'll try my best to survive."

"It was early morning at that time, and I was sleeping, so I only saw it when I woke up."

"After reading it, I thought this was the climax of the novel plot he designed."

"So I replied: What happened next? Did you survive?"

"But..."

Big Tiger laughed mockingly at this point, "He never replied to my messages again after that."

"I thought at the time this kid was playing mystery games with me, since he'd done similar things before."

"Until one day I suddenly heard from my parents that my distant cousin Xiao Q had gone missing while traveling abroad."

"Only then did I instantly understand."

"Turns out, those things he sent me weren't some novel he designed, but actually exist in this world."

Big Tiger now parked the car by the roadside.

He turned to look at Second Tiger and Third Tiger:

"The place we went to today was that Alice Apartment my cousin told me about."

"And as you saw, that Xiao Xing guy had a cabinet full of human heads."

Second Tiger and Third Tiger fell silent.

After a long silence, Second Tiger said, "But I still don't understand. Since you already knew about the shady aspects of this Alice Apartment, Big Tiger,"

"you could have either refused the commission or completed it. So why withdraw halfway after starting?"

Big Tiger said, "Knowing this Alice Apartment truly exists, even though I knew it was dangerous, I still wanted to go see it to satisfy my curiosity."

"As for why I stopped—it's precisely because of the danger. My curiosity was somewhat satisfied, so I stopped."

After hearing this.

Second Tiger stopped questioning and leaned his head back against the car seat.

"Forget it, forget it. Since even you think it's dangerous, Big Tiger, then it must be truly dangerous. Anyway, we got 500,000 yuan this time, and I recently had my eye on a model—now I have money to have fun."

The Three Tigers Detective Group always split their income equally.

No matter what type of partnership, if money issues aren't handled properly, it's extremely easy for people to go their separate ways.

Second Tiger stopped concerning himself with this matter.

But the usually silent Third Tiger suddenly spoke: "Big Tiger, your distant cousin probably died at the hands of that chainsaw murderer. Don't you plan to avenge him?"

Big Tiger smiled and adjusted his glasses.

"Avenge him? If that chainsaw murderer were right in front of me, and I had complete confidence, I would avenge him."

"But if I have to go through all kinds of trouble to avenge him, that would only happen for my parents or my biological siblings."

At that suburban villa.

Zhou Yan and the other two were still waiting for the police to arrive.

Xiao Xing sat obediently on the sofa with silver metal handcuffs locking his hands, showing no desire to escape.

Despite this, Li Miguo and Jimmy stood on either side of him, watching him.

Zhou Yan sat cross-legged in a queen-like posture on a purple sofa, saying, "That damned Three Tigers Detective Group! They didn't even finish the job before running off! They have no professional ethics at all!"

Zhou Yan was still complaining about the Three Tigers Detective Group.

It seemed she felt that if they had put in more effort, they might have caught the person who killed her father too.

Li Miguo asked Jimmy, "Jimmy, why do you think the Three Tigers Detective Group terminated the commission?"

Jimmy thought for a moment and said, "Probably the same reason as Mike—they think that apartment is dangerous. If they continued investigating, they might lose their lives!"

Zhou Yan sneered, "What bullshit about losing their lives? What danger could an apartment possibly have?"

At this moment, Xiao Xing suddenly said, "Since you think that apartment isn't dangerous, why don't you go investigate your father's death yourself?"

Zhou Yan, feeling provoked, became quite angry, "I'm not a professional! What would I investigate? And I have money—it's not like I can't afford to hire people to investigate for me."

"Oh, right, I want to ask—since you killed my brother, did you also kill my dad?!"
