Weird rental experience
At that time, I was a young man who had just been out of the society for a few years. I was working in a township in the central and southern countryside and owned a locomotive and a second-hand car.
At the beginning, I rented a building suite, not far from the company, and there was a parking space in the basement of the building that could be rented separately, which perfectly solved my parking needs. However, the building is exclusively rented out with suites. The number of households is quite large, and there are many college students renting it. The vigorous energy of college students and the upside-down daily routine have seriously affected me as an office worker, and because of the location, the suites are quite humid. The factors are superimposed, and I have the idea of changing houses.
At that time, the rental housing network was not so popular, and the way to find houses was usually through PTT, real estate brokers, small advertisements that can be seen everywhere, or introductions from neighbors and friends. ' in large letters.
One time when I was looking for food after get off work, I casually chatted with the proprietress about finding a house. The proprietress happened to have a nearby house that she planned to rent out, and the house itself had a garage. I thought to myself, where can I find such a good opportunity? We made an appointment for a time, place, and ready to see the house.
As it turns out, coincidences are not always fortunate.
The house is located in a lively alley, it is an old-fashioned house with 2 floors (similar to the fashion store in the photo, but the fashion store has only 1 floor), and parking is available on the first floor. Seeing this kind of wooden gate, there is almost no safety at all, and my heart has been greatly reduced, but people are coming, and it is not easy to refuse the boss's kindness (after all, I have to go there to eat...), I still follow The lady boss entered the house.
First of all, I'm a Muggle with no sensibilities, and I've even visited the famous haunted house with a group of friends. Of course there are occasional uncomfortable situations, but in the end it is a minority.
As soon as I entered the 1st floor, the lights were dim, and there was a strong smell of damp and musty, followed by a burst of dizziness. Because I was severely anemic at the time, I didn’t think too much about it. I thought it was anemia again, but I didn’t expect the highlight. still behind.
The 1st floor is mainly a parking space, there is nothing to see, and then you have to go to the main living space on the 2nd floor. For some reason, when I looked at the stairs leading to the second floor, I felt a strong sense of resistance, but at that time, I was a young man with strong blood and thin skin.
I have no impression of what the space distribution on the 2nd floor looks like. I only remember that there should be no strange houses, but in my eyes, it is a space that is constantly distorted. Headache and shortness of breath are still trivial things, but the sudden palpitation and goose bumps made me feel like I was enveloped in fear, which made me stop at the entrance of the stairs and didn't take the next step forward.
In this case, even if I were a Muggle, I should have known something was wrong.
Trying to stabilize myself, I hurried downstairs, left the house, and stood in the street waiting for the proprietress. The proprietress looked at me inexplicably, I just smiled and said, "It's too big, I'm still used to living in a suite", and then quickly left by bike, went to the local famous Mazu Temple to pay homage, and stayed in the temple for a while , and then gradually recovered.
This is more than 10 years ago, and I am still impressed. Over the years, I have traveled from north to south, and I have changed many rental houses. At the same time, I have learned to be good. As long as there is a little doubt about the appearance and the surrounding environment, I will directly refuse, and I will not even take a step.
Thick-skinned, why not?
