Zhang Yao said, "That's not what I meant either."
"Before searching the apartment."
"Let the manager @everyone in the group, and have them report three times a day-morning, noon, and evening-whether they've seen Bundy or not."
"They must reply with a video of a few seconds."
"If anyone doesn't respond, there's a chance Bundy is in their home."
"After all, the most dangerous place is also the safest. He might have broken into someone's home, killed them, and taken over."
"That's why I said earlier that replying with a few seconds of video would prevent this kind of problem!"
A long string of words left the three people in the management office lost in thought for a long time.
In the end, Yang Qi slowly exhaled a mouthful of foul air and said, "That's a good idea. It reduces our workload."
"So, Manager, please take care of it!!!"
Manager Wu Meiling also wanted to catch Bundy as soon as possible, so she posted the requirement they had just discussed in the group chat.
But they had miscalculated one thing.
Forget that the residents of Alice Apartment were all deranged criminals and deranged serial killers, unyielding and unruly. Even in the outside world, if property management asked residents of a residential complex to do something like this, especially video reports three times a day in the morning, noon, and evening, a ton of people would refuse because it was too much trouble.
That was exactly the situation they were facing now.
Half an hour had passed since the message was sent, and not a single person had replied with a video.
Zeng Yan looked down at his phone, then raised his head and said, "What do we do now? No one's cooperating!"
Zhang Yao said, "Let's set an example by sending videos first."
So, Zhang Yao and the other three each sent videos.
The gist of their videos was that they hadn't seen any sign of Bundy.
But even after the four of them sent their videos, no one else followed suit.
Zhang Yao stared at the situation in the group chat.
He couldn't help scratching his head in frustration. He was finally doing a good thing-catching this foreign deranged serial killer. Why were so many people not cooperating?
Was it really this hard?
He simply typed a message in the group:
"Everyone, please cooperate. This is to catch Bundy as quickly as possible. A dangerous person like him is hiding in the apartment-aren't you all worried about running into him?"
When Zhang Yao saw that no one in the group responded to his message, he asked Manager Wu Meiling to post one instead.
Manager Wu Meiling posted, asking everyone to cooperate more. But the result was the same.
Seeing this, Manager Wu Meiling was at a loss.
Even though she was the manager, she wasn't the real boss of the apartment complex. The residents didn't all listen to her. If the manager were the boss, then the manager before Manager Mao Li Zhishu, Manager Li Chong, wouldn't have died.
When he saw that even the manager's post got no response, Zhang Yao got a little angry and sent another message in the group: "Everyone, can you have a little sense of responsibility? We're doing this for the good of all the residents!!"
"Is it really that hard to help with a small favor?"
"It's such a simple thing to do!!!"
Zhang Yao complained a few more times in the group.
Then, a resident retorted: "Idiot. Why would I go along with reporting to you three times a day with a video? Only an idiot would do that."
"What the hell is Bundy? Whoever runs into him is just unlucky. I'm not going to run into him anyway."
Seeing someone actually daring to retort to him, Zhang Yao nodded his head three times: "Fine, fine, fine. A bunch of useless pricks!"
Just as he was saying this,
Jiang Ran returned from the hospital.
After removing the last of the bandages, Jiang Ran was completely healed.
He was no longer a mummy.
When he came back, he learned about Zhang Yao and what they had done while he was at the hospital.
So, he pulled out his phone. "Since that's the case, let me, as the assistant manager, post in the group too and try to encourage everyone a bit!"
Zhang Yao watched Jiang Ran take out his phone to post, and inwardly, he was full of contempt.
He had already gotten to know the residents living here. Every single one of them was a bastard who deserved a beating. No matter who posted, the result would be the same.
What irritated him even more was that he was somewhat jealous of Jiang Ran. He clearly remembered how Hong Nan had actively come on to Jiang Ran and failed.
Jiang Ran also posted in the group. His post was very simple too. The general idea was that everyone didn't need to do it three times a day-just twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, would be fine.
After he posted,
Zhang Yao looked at the cold, silent group chat and sneered coldly in his heart.
He had said it-no one's post would make a difference.
But just as he was thinking that,
Suddenly, a new message popped up.
It was a video.
In the video was a bespectacled man, who said: "Everything is safe on my end. I haven't found any trace of Bundy."
After watching the video, Zhang Yao was stunned. Then he exited and saw that the resident's name was Jia Tao.
Right after Jia Tao, another resident posted a similar video.
This person was named Ah Wei.
Zhang Yao was a bit dumbfounded.
He had no idea why these two had actually obeyed Jiang Ran's words so obediently.
In Room 902 of Building No. 1, where Jia Tao lived.
Ah Wei was also confused about this.
"Boss, why do we have to obey Jiang Ran's words like that? Doing this is so stupid!!!"
Jia Tao was eating an orange at the moment. He stuffed half the orange into his mouth, chewed it loudly a few times, and then mumbled: "This is called giving Jiang Ran face! This is called showing goodwill!"
Ah Wei asked, "In case we end up in Jiang Ran's hands someday and need to beg for mercy?"
Aside from these two,
There were also a few others.
For example, Qin Kelian, Kim Yoon-ah, Su Mi, Sherlock, and Zhang Le.
These people cooperated with Jiang Ran out of fear, a desire to show goodwill, or other motives.
In short, as soon as Jiang Ran posted, it spurred these people to post.
Zhang Yao looked at the videos in the group chat, and his heart ached with anger!
Especially since among those who posted were several beautiful women!!!
Just look at Qin Kelian from Room 303, as well as Kim Yoon-ah and Su Mi.
Zhang Yao was practically drooling just looking at them.
At the same time, his jealousy toward Jiang Ran grew stronger and stronger.
Why was Jiang Ran able to attract so many people, especially beautiful women, to kowtow to him?
While he, Zhang Yao, couldn't get a single one?
Faced with this situation,
Jiang Ran hadn't expected so many people to show him such support either!
He felt a little pleased inside.
Although so many people had backed him up, even more people still chose not to post and just lurked.
Therefore, the few people in the management office discussed it and decided they couldn't just stay here and wait for prey to show up. They needed to go out and search for traces of Bundy.
Two people would stay behind in the management office, while the other three would go out and look.
The two staying behind were Zeng Yan and Manager Wu Meiling.
Those going out to search were Jiang Ran, Yang Qi, and Zhang Yao.
Before they left, each of them brought a mop to use as a weapon.
In the live stream room.
Ultimate Rich Kid: [Does anyone know where Bundy is hiding now? I've switched to a lot of cameras, and I haven't seen him.]
Fairy Sister: [I'm switching cameras too. Anyway, he's definitely still in the apartment.]
