Chapter 29 Voice
"After taking the four keys handed over by the woman, he put the keys into his left pocket," Jiang Cheng said calmly: "Then his left hand was kept in his pocket. He was doing something, and at the same time he kept talking to try to distract us. "
The fat man felt that his brain was running out of energy again. He was very tired. He asked cautiously: "Did he do something to the key?"
"It's not clear yet," Jiang Cheng replied, "I just checked the key and didn't find anything strange."
The fat man nodded and explained to himself: "So, doctor, you asked the pajama girl and the others to go over just to interrupt his little movements?"
The fat man gritted his teeth and said indignantly: "Doctor, this man in a suit looks okay, but I didn't expect that he was so bad behind his back that he even retaliated and assigned us to room 404."
"I "Take a moment," Jiang Cheng ignored him and turned over, "Remember to wake me up in an hour."
"Okay." The fat man took the watch that Jiang Cheng threw over.
The watch chain is not long enough for him to put it on, so he can only hold it in his hand.
Although he was not too sleepy, in order to prevent him from falling asleep accidentally, he still sat up and wrapped the quilt around him.
The night was very quiet, and the whole campus seemed dead.
The fat man is thinking that there are probably no students living nearby, otherwise it would never be so quiet.
When the hour was up, Fatty got out of bed and shook Jiang Cheng awake.
Jiang Cheng was a light sleeper. He had already woken up when the fat man got out of bed, but he still waited for the fat man to push him a few times before he opened his eyes in a daze.
After he sat up, he moved his neck and shoulders. The pillows here were not very comfortable. He was used to sleeping on buckwheat pillows at home, not too soft cotton ones.
"Has anything strange happened during this period?"
"No," the fat man said, "Doctor, don't worry, I will wake you up even if I find a cockroach. You should know that, I'm very alert."
Jiang Cheng stood up and walked to the door first, without getting too close, and just listened to the movement in the corridor through the door.
After a while, he returned to his bed, lay on it, and listened to the movement next door for a while.
"Doctor," the fat man said, "they should all be asleep. It's very quiet around here."
Jiang Cheng glanced at him and said nothing. He took the watch back from the fat man's hand and put it on his wrist.
Although the fat man was not hungry anymore after eating the chocolate, he felt very thirsty.
After another half hour of this, Jiang Cheng estimated in his mind that it was almost done and was ready to take action. He first warned the fat man to pretend to be ignorant no matter what happened.
The fat man's head was filled with questions, but out of his trust in Jiang Cheng, he still agreed.
Jiang Cheng pulled out an old-fashioned dime coin from the corner of the ground, then picked up the coin and returned to the wall next to his bed, gently scratching the wall with the edge of the coin.
"嚓——"
"嚓——"
Again and again.
The intensity is just right, the sound is not loud, but it is very clear in the silent night.
“What are you doing?”
The slight scratching sound made the fat man's skin crawl. Many people had a physiological objection to such friction sounds.
Jiang Cheng didn’t answer, still repeating the scratching action.
Gradually, there began to be sounds coming from the next door. Although they were not loud, one could tell from the chaotic sounds that the people next door were panicking.
Next door is room 405.
Room with man in suit and cap.
After a while, the sound of the door being pushed open came from the corridor, followed by the sound of rapid and unorganized footsteps.
Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Cheng immediately stopped rubbing the wall with the coins, carefully wiped off the remaining wall debris on the coins, and then threw them in an inconspicuous corner on the ground.
But the footsteps were in the opposite direction of Room 404 where Jiang Cheng was. Then he stood still and heard messy knocks on the door and the sounds of men in suits and caps.
After a while, the corridor became lively again.
Jiang Cheng pretended to have just woken up and slowly opened the door to his room. It seemed that he did not expect that everyone was outside. His expression instantly turned fearful, "What's wrong? Come out." What happened?”
Seeing Jiang Cheng come out, the leading man in a suit seemed to be stunned for a moment. After a while, he asked in a strange tone: "Did you hear a strange sound?"
"A strange sound?" Jiang Cheng scratched his head. Scratching his head, "No, I just fell asleep. It's very quiet here."
"No?" The man in the suit looked ugly, as if he suddenly remembered something. Well, he said hurriedly: "Where is the fat man in your room?"
"I'm here." The fat man came out after hearing the words, and poked his big head out of the room. His hair was messy, as if he had just After waking up, he asked, "Brother, what do you want from me?"
In a hurry, the man in a suit asked directly: "Did you hear a strange sound?"
He paused and described: "It's like the sound of scraping with something like a spoon?"
The fat man's eyes widened and he said doubtfully: "No, I haven't slept the whole time, nothing." I didn’t hear it.”
Hearing the answers from Jiang Cheng and Fatty, except for the man in the suit and the peaked hat, everyone in the other two rooms showed expressions of relief.
At the same time, they looked at the man in a suit with intriguing faces.
Only the people in room 405 heard the strange noise, so does that mean they will encounter those things first.
In other words, they will die first.
“We are going back,” the cheongsam woman said first.
Then she walked directly back to her room, followed by the dinosaur pajamas girl, like a little tail, for fear of being abandoned.
Seeing that 407 was so decisive, the three people in 406 stopped staying. After saying a few words, they also ran back to their rooms.
The door closed with a bang, as if afraid that something would follow.
Now only the gloomy-looking man in a suit and the peaked cap were left.
Jiang Cheng leaned against the door with a puzzled look on his face, and then as if he suddenly realized something, he suddenly blurted out: "Is hearing the weird friction sound the trigger for the ghost to kill? It's so scary!"
“Fat man.” Jiang Cheng turned his head and panicked: "Did you really not hear it?"
The fat man replied very cooperatively: "Good brother, I really didn't, how about you?"
"I fell asleep like everyone else. "I didn't hear anything." Jiang Cheng spread his hands and put on an innocent and pitiful expression.
"That's great." The fat man said, "We don't have to die."
After saying that, the two closed the door, leaving the man in the suit and the peaked hat standing alone in the corridor under the dim light. (End of this chapter)
