Chapter 18 Hotel Information
“I heard from the previous residents of the hotel that the Nightmare Hotel was not here before, but in Dahan City.”
Chen Kai recalled it carefully: “The hotel I moved here a few years ago. I came to the hotel two years ago when the residents on the eighth floor of the hotel were checking out. "
Jin Jiuyue frowned. The hotel used to be in Dahan City. Doesn't it mean they are together with the ghost post office? Is there any connection? There is also the check-out task mentioned by Chen Kai, which should be the task before residents leave the hotel.
“Keep talking and don’t leave out important information.”
"The check-out task is the last task that residents perform after the hotel is upgraded from the first floor to the eighth floor. As long as it is completed, the hotel will let us leave. However, the check-out task is rare and random, and there are only residents on the eighth floor. You can participate, but people on the other seven floors cannot participate, and they cannot leave the hotel even half a step."
It turns out that the wine is here. The store previously had three tasks to choose from every month. Residents on the first floor needed to complete three tasks on the floor before they could move to a higher floor. However, there is a premise for this upgrade model, which is that residents on the upper floors have vacant rooms. If The upper floors are all full. Even if you complete three tasks on your floor, you still need to complete three more tasks.
Such a model is a complete nightmare for ordinary people. As the number of completed tasks increases, high-rise residents will become more and more experienced. Just like people like Chen Kai and Baldhead, this has emerged. In this case, the check-out task on the eighth floor is randomly released and may not appear at any time.
Once there is no check-out task, the residents on the eighth floor cannot leave and can only continue the task. If the residents on the eighth floor do not leave, the residents on the seventh floor cannot come up. By analogy, many residents will be Stuck on a floor and unable to move up.
Over time, the new residents on the first floor of the hotel died away, and there were fewer and fewer new residents. It was always them old people.
"If the check-out task never appears, then the residents on the eighth floor will always stay here?" Jin Jiuyue was puzzled by this model.
"Yes, if the residents on the eighth floor don't leave, they won't be able to leave the other seven floors either." Chen Kai smiled bitterly while sitting on the sofa.
Who wants to stay here forever?
It’s really uncomfortable to have a home and not be able to go back, and not be able to reunite with my wife and children.
“Has anyone ever left?”
Jin Jiuyue was a little dissatisfied with the hotel's approach, which was equivalent to completely locking out these residents.
“Yes, I caught up with the check-out task of the hotel on the first day I came here. At that time, a female resident on the eighth floor successfully completed it and finally left the hotel.”
“Female resident ?”
I don’t know why, but he is a little concerned about women in this place. This concern is entirely because of the captain-level characters Yinzi and Sister Hong in the original work.
The person who can leave the hotel alive must be a boss. Even if he is not a ghost master, he is still better than a ghost master. Even a ghost master who controls a ghost may not be able to defeat them.
"Other than this woman, who else has left? Also, do you know when the last check-out task was."
Chen Kai frowned and thought for a while, and said: "There are two more people, but I I haven’t seen it before. The last check-out task was more than a year ago.”
Through what Chen Kai said, Jin Jiuyue got a general understanding of the situation. They are all free workers and coolies in the hotel. Whether you can leave or not depends entirely on God's will.
"Have any of the residents below the eighth floor ever tried to leave?"
"Yes, and there were many of them. Not long after I arrived, my next door neighbor forcibly left the hotel and directly He died outside the hotel. He was killed at the gate as soon as he left the hotel.”
Jin Yueyue's eyes narrowed suddenly. He was killed as soon as he left. Was it similar to a curse?
“What will happen if you don’t stay in the hotel at night.”
“There will be ghosts following you. If you don’t come back at the first time, you will be killed.”
Chen Kai sighed. The hotel's approach blocked all their options. There was no other way to leave except completing the task.
"Is there anything else missing? Are you thinking, do the rest of you have anything to add?" Jin Yueyue looked at the other three.
"No, what Brother Kai said is right."
What these residents know is also very limited. None of them have explored the hotel and dare not do so.
But it is not without gain. At least I know that someone has left the hotel alive. If I want to investigate the rest of the situation clearly, I can only find a way to break through the ghost zone of the hotel.
"By the way, has anything happened in Dachang City recently?" Jin Jiuyue suddenly thought of Dachang City and asked them if they could figure out the current time period.
"Dachang City? I don't know." Chen Kai shook his head.
The other three people don't know either.
"Okay, I've said all that needs to be said. I'll give you five minutes to rest. I'll go get the room card later." Jin Jiuyue nodded. It seems that he has time to go to Dachang. Market.
"Um... do you want us to get the room card?" Chen Kai was a little scared. He was worried that Jin Jiuyue would use them as cannon fodder.
"You can just follow, you don't have to take it."
The four of them breathed a sigh of relief. If they were really asked to get it, they had no choice but to bite the bullet.
Five minutes passed quickly.
Jin Jiuyue took the four of them out of room 801.
Chen Kai speculated that the current location of the ghost is likely to be on the sixth or seventh floor. The movement pattern of this ghost is very simple, from the lobby to the ninth floor, and then from the ninth floor to the lobby, and cycle back and forth.
As soon as they got down to the seventh floor, they discovered the ghost. The ghost was currently in room 709, the innermost room.
"You guys wait here for me."
Instructing the four people to stay and wait, Jin Yueyue walked towards the ghost.
If what Chen Kai said is right, then this ghost will basically not harm him, as long as it does not cause fear.
The ghost did not look back because of the movement made by Jin Yueyue, and was still walking towards the deepest point.
This ghost is wearing a very shabby dress, and the style seems to be that of the past ten years.
After reaching the end of the corridor, the ghost slowly turned around and began to walk back. Jin Yueyue stood face to face.
Chen Kai and others were extremely nervous watching this scene. This was the first time they saw someone who was not afraid of ghosts.
After finishing his mission in Daluo City, Jin Jiuyue thought of many things, including the fact that he was the body of a ghost.
Logically speaking, he is a ghost. As long as he does not deliberately violate the trigger rules, he will not be attacked by ghosts, except for the ghosts who actively attack in the hotel mission.
So, he doesn’t need to worry about this scary ghost at all.
The ghost walked closer step by step. Jin Yueyue found that the clothes on the ghost had pockets, and the room key card was probably in his jacket pocket. Without saying anything, he walked directly to the side of the ghost.
Chen Kai and the other four people watching from behind broke into cold sweats. This Jin Yue Yue was too courageous.
Jin Jiuyue put his hand into his pocket. The ghost didn't make any movement and just walked straight forward. The pattern Chen Kai deduced was completely correct.
There was nothing in the pocket on this side. He went around from the back to the other side. Sure enough, he found a hard card in the pocket of his clothes.
Just when he was about to take out the card, the ghost suddenly turned his head and stared at him with a pair of dead and cold eyes. (End of this chapter)
