Smell

A friend of mine told me this incident that happen to her a few weeks ago
this is how it goes...

She lives in an apartment on th 6th floor along Latrobe street.
She herself is from HK and her housemate is from Korea.
So that night her housemate bought some durian and they enjoyed themselves at home eating.
After that, my friend went for a shower and her housemate prepared to go to bed.
Suddenly the buzzer at their door began to ring, and when her roommate pick up, a man on the other side told them to quickly get out of the building...they were evacuating the whole building!!
my poor showering friend quickly put on some clothes and a jacket and she was out of the door..
at the doorway they meet their neighbor (ang mo) and her son pulling a huge bag. The son press the lift button and his mum screamed at him "take the stairs!! do you want to die!"
So down were all the residents of the building, with 3 fireman trucks and an ambulance.
They were all standing out in the cold in the middle of the night not knowing what was happening. Then, the fireman told them they suspect a gas leakage.
After 2 hours in the cold, they still could not find the source of the leakage,they were only sure that the source was somewhere in the 5th to 7th floor as the smell was really strong there. So they did not have a choice and their next move was to call the gas company.
Before that happen, my friend felt weird, she thought they live in the 6th floor, so it might be their apartment. So they gave the fireman permission to enter their apartment and search.
and sure enough it was their apartment with the gas leakage!!!

So after everything was settled and all the residents were given an explanation everyone went back to bed..

Guess what??!! the gas leakage was actually the smell of the DURIAN!!

So be careful when you eat durain especially in overseas...tell your neighbours before you eat it!!
