Chapter 1110: Chapter 1110: Strange Tales
With the help of the second senior brother, Yue Qingqing quickly obtained the information.
Yue Xingxing also got the news from the agency.
The two of them talked on the phone and basically figured out the situation.
It turned out that the estate nad “Champs Elysees Residences” was a project from seven or eight years ago, secured by a major corporation looking to transition into real estate.
The corporation was quite powerful, making a grand spectacle at the ti, even inviting a top-tier celebrity for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
To build brand image, the corporation held an early booking event with significant discounts.
Many people paid to book houses before even seeing the foundation.
Qiang Xin was probably one of them.
Yue Qingqing could tell from his aura that he was speculative by nature, likely seizing the opportunity and buying so many units in one bold move.
However, this project that seed promising encountered issues midway.
It was said that during construction, a contractor’s family ran into trouble.
The next day, the contractor was distracted while supervising the site.
As a result, an accident occurred.
Falling steel beams killed four people on the site, and the contractor ended up in jail because of it.
Strangely enough, not long after, news ca of the contractor’s death.
What’s more, his death was particularly bizarre, as his head got stuck in a crevice, and he was crushed to death.
It was identical to how one of the construction workers was killed by the falling steel.
Despite this, the project didn’t stop; the top boss replaced the team and planned to continue.
They even aid to complete it within the specified tifra.
This ti, everything seed smooth, and the buildings went up.
The boss gave the project a fancy na—Champs Elysees Residences.
He thought that although there was an accident during construction, the quality of the houses was still solid, the location was good, and they would definitely sell well.
However, during the completion ceremony, another problem arose.
It was almost a replay of the previous events.
During the press conference, a sudden gust blew, and a high-rise window inexplicably fell.
It plumted down, killing four people again.
This ti, the four included the boss who was answering reporters’ questions.
Blood splattered in front of the caras.
The scene was filled with screams.
The incident was covered by local dia for half a month.
At that ti, it beca well known to everyone.
Although officials repeatedly emphasized it was an accident, all sorts of rumors still spread wide.
So said it was ghosts seeking revenge, as how else to explain such coincidental, similar accidents? The wronged souls couldn’t rest in peace.
Others firmly believed the estate was built on an old graveyard, filled with grievances, never suitable for living, or else residents would also encounter accidents.
No matter which theory, the estate’s property prices plumted.
The corporation was severely damaged by the incident, gradually declining.
This was also seen as another curse on the Champs Elysees Residences.
Later residents who didn’t believe in such things moved in, but strange occurrences happened frequently.
Either hearing singing at night or seeing a woman without legs while taking out the trash.
Eventually, due to the low occupancy rate, the corporation simply cut off the water and electricity.
Yue Xingxing guessed that the reason the lights could be turned on in their room yesterday was probably because Qiang Xin used a generator or so other thod, but there was definitely no way to supply water.
The current state of the estate is unoccupied; earlier buyers tried to get refunds several tis but were helpless as the corporation entered bankruptcy liquidation.
The matter was even put on forums and beca one of Beijing’s top ten urban legends.
Many locals still rember, and Qiang Xin probably targeted Yue Qingqing and the others because they were outsiders.
