Haunted House (入凶宅)

Recently,

short-period comet.

P1975271F

made its closest pass by Earth in twenty-five years.

Multiple monitoring stations are

picking up a rare, ongoing geomagnetic anomaly.

Authorities have issued a warning:

This geomagnetic disturbance

could trigger localized space time anomalies.

Where do you think you're going?

Where do you think you're going?

This window is broken.

It won't close,

and the landlord won't fix it.

Oh,

I'll try.

The waterproofing on this building isn't great.

See over there?

It leaks every time it rains.

Why is it leaking?

Oh,

right.

Come over here.

Look at this bathroom,

so clean,

so spacious.

The toilet's broken.

Won't flush.

You'll have to replace it yourself.

Can we get rid of that TV?

Landlord says no.

Can't any of you

help reach out to him?

No point.

No,

what she means is

we can't reach out right now.

The landlord's

in the States, see?

Time difference,

right?

Don't you two worry.

Manager Li gave us special orders

to take very good care of you.

Come on,

let's take a look at the kitchen.

This floor plan,

the kitchen is really something.

Right this way,

sir,

and madam.

Who are you?

Why are you here?

Is this your home?

I have a large wardrobe at home too.

Are you a witch too?

Are you Harry Potter?

I'm Voldemort.

Then if you don't leave now,

I'll take what's yours.

Can you not bring clients

to this unit next time?

This was my listing to begin with.

But I'm your superior.

And today's clients were arranged by Manager Li herself.

So whatever Li Xinxin tells you to do, you just do it?

You're so obedient to her.

Please,

just give me a break.

Can you please stop crashing here every single day?

This is the last empty unit

that's still habitable.

Once a new one comes online,

I'll move out immediately.

Hui,

this is a haunted house.

You're staying here,

aren't you even a little creeped out?

Haunted is better.

Go ahead and tell Li Xinxin

it's haunted.

No one will dare to rent it.

Our job as agents,

we rent out any property

and that's what we do.

But I've told you again and again,

squatting in a listing isn't just against the rules,

it's illegal.

And if it goes that far,

you're looking at jail time.

Hui,

can't you just listen to me for once?

After all, I am your master.

I did listen.

Isn't it you, Master,

who taught me to squat in the first place?

Back then, Manager Li brought you to me,

I took you in out of pity.

I still remember that card of yours,

one hundred and seventy-two three left, wasn't it?

It's freezing out there.

I couldn't just let you sleep on the street, could I?

Besides,

that listing belongs to a friend of mine.

So it's not really

squatting, is it?

Hao,

your memory is remarkable.

With a gift like that,

how did you let your Li

rise so far above you?

So how long are you planning to stay?

If someone finds out,

we're both done for.

I've got my eye on a ground-floor unit.

Down payment's cheap.

I'm almost there.

I really don't get it.

Why the rush to buy?

Of course you don't.

Because you don't have a father who vanished

and a mother who jumped.

No,

that's not what I meant.

What I'm saying is

you can stay with me.

I won't charge you rent.

Well,

just watch yourself.

And,

whatever you do, don't let the neighbors…

Are you done?

By the way,

this place

is really off.

Take this and keep it on you.

It'll hold the line.

Who is there?

Hello?

Hello?

What are you doing up there?

Li Xinxin and I are already downstairs.

Hao,

what's taking you?

Hurry up.

The client.

Hao,

hurry up.

Open the door.

Where's that noise coming from?

This place has been empty for so long.

Why would anyone file a complaint all of a sudden?

Oh,

The rats

have been getting pretty bad around here.

And old houses like this?

They're prime real estate for nests.

Hui?

Oh,

she

showed a client yesterday for me.

Must've left it here.

I can't bend on this.

Sure, Song Hui and I went to college together,

but rules are rules.

Lose your security card,

and you lose your pay.

Hao,

Where's all this water coming from?

Rat piss.

Has to be rat piss.

Rats?

I don't see any rats.

Hey,

right there.

Where is it?

Look,

just there.

And there's droppings too.

Right there.

Hey,

you just stepped on one.

This Song Hui,

been with the company forever,

and what's she got to show for it? Nothing.

And that face she wears, like she's already dead,

scares every client right out the door.

Xiaohui's just shy.

She's actually

a decent person.

Decent?

You know how she got that scar on her head?

From the day

her mother jumped.

She claims she can't remember a thing,

but I say

she just cracked her dead as a kid.

Not a single one of us from college ever liked her.

And you know what she did

to get out of the dorms?
