Chapter 1172 Neighbors
But Jiang Cheng is more concerned about what Zhou Tong plans to do next.
"It is now 9 o'clock at night. According to the experience of previous missions, it is too dangerous to walk around outside during this time. I suggest... we should find a place to rest first." Lu Yu's voice was weak. explain.
This sudden sentence instantly aroused Jiang Cheng's alert. Lu Yu had lost two teammates, and now she was the only one left. No matter how you looked at it, it was not her turn to give advice.
Moreover, Lu Yu was still crying just now, but now his eyes were so calm that Jiang Cheng was afraid.
His eyes swept over Lu Yu and Zhou Tong. Jiang Cheng's face remained calm, and he comforted him very naturally: "Lu Yu, don't worry, we will be fine with all of us here."
"Yes, nothing will happen to us." Fatty also made a promise to Lu Yu.
But at this moment, Jiang Cheng's heart could no longer be calm. He could clearly feel the pressure of the coming storm. The closer it was to the time to sing the ghost show, the more ghosts pretending to be around him. He became increasingly impatient.
But this is not entirely a bad thing. The more impatient the ghost is, the more flaws it reveals. Excluding the two dead people, the identities of Zhou Tong and Lu Yu have also been confirmed.
In other words, Teacher Zigui, Bai Xi, and Lu Yu are all ghosts.
This is what makes Jiang Cheng wary the most.
It also reminded him of what the ghost bride said on the bus: Don’t trust anyone.
The ghost bride and the newspaper man are both law enforcers in the old president’s field. They must also know each other’s abilities. It seems that the ghost bride is worried that she will be confused by the newspaper man’s ability, so she said In this case.
"Look, there is a drawer here that can be opened." Zhou Tong suddenly spoke.
Jiang Cheng knew when he heard that she was setting the pace again, but he didn't want to expose her. He glanced at Lin Wan'er subconsciously, and their eyes met in an instant. The tacit understanding cultivated over many years made Jiang Cheng understand that Lin Wan'er also See through Zhou Tong's identity.
Zhou Tong squatted down and opened a drawer that had been dusty for a long time. The drawer handle was still covered in dust.
Du Moyu came up, half-knelt on the ground, and looked into the drawer.
Zhou Tong reached in and took out a piece of paper. The writing on the paper was very scrawled. It looked like it was written in a hurry. The content was very simple, just to remind the guests staying in the hotel. Don't go out and walk around at night. Try to stay in your own room. Even if you hear any strange noises, don't pay attention.
A maximum of two people can stay in each room.
Finally, a very inexplicable sentence was added to remind guests to abide by the hotel's regulations and be sure to put on slippers when entering the room.
The word "slippers" is followed by an exclamation mark.
Zhou Tong pretended to be scared and urged everyone to find a room and move in quickly. Then he stood up and went to get the hotel room key, but unexpectedly, someone beat him to it.
Chen Ran quickly stepped in front of Zhou Tong and said with a smile: "I don't have to worry about this, Miss Zhou, let me do it." After saying that, he didn't listen to Zhou Tong's explanation and quickly took off the keys one by one. Get down and put it in your pocket.
Jiang Cheng could feel that Zhou Tong was about to explode with anger. He once thought that Zhou Tong was going to tear off his mask and take action directly. But whether it was because of fear of Chen Ran or due to the rules, Zhou Tong endured the anger. , turned sideways and let Chenran go.
"Thank you, Miss Zhou." Chenran grinned as if to show off, patted his pocket with his hand, and the keys inside made a clattering sound, "Believe me, we will be fine tonight. ”
Xia Meng stared at Chenran, Lin Wan'er and others, and whispered, "Madman."
The storm was resolved invisibly, and Jiang Cheng's tense heartstrings relaxed. He turned around and looked at When Fatty was comforting Lu Yu heartlessly, asking her to cheer up and be stronger, Jiang Cheng was so angry that he wanted to rush over and give him a kick.
I didn’t dare to stay here for a long time. After everyone discussed it, they decided to go upstairs to have a look. At this time, Su Xiaoxiao, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke up, "Everyone." Her handsome face was as cold as ice, " Why do I feel like something is wrong here? We seem... to be led by someone."
"Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence to find these keys and the drawer with the note?" He speaks his mind outright, as if he is not afraid of offending anyone at all.
Hearing what Su Xiaoxiao said, Zhou Tong's face suddenly darkened, "What do you mean? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hide it!"
"Did I say it was you? Why are you so excited?" Su Xiaoxiao responded mercilessly.
Seemingly sensing the threat from Zhou Tong, Su An uncharacteristically showed a fierce expression towards Zhou Tong, and at the same time pulled her sister Su Xiaoxiao behind her.
Seeing that something was not right, Xia Qiang and others stepped forward to pull the two groups apart and persuaded them to calm down. We are all in the same team and are all friends of Mr. Jiang, so don't hurt the harmony.
In the end, it was Lin Wan'er who stood up and made the final decision, asking everyone to go upstairs to look for clues. As soon as this woman opened her mouth, her momentum overwhelmed the entire audience, and no one said anything more.
Everyone found a hotel layout map at the corner. According to the guidance of the map, everyone learned that there are three ways to go upstairs.
There is a main staircase in the middle of the hotel, mainly for guests.
There is also a narrower and more shabby small staircase on the left side, which is used by hotel employees to go up and down the stairs daily. It is also used as an escape route in case of emergency.
At the same time, there is an old-fashioned elevator on the right side of the hotel, which is exclusively for VIP use.
The elevator was abandoned directly. The employee passage on the far left was too narrow. There were so many of them that in case of emergency, they couldn't move at all, so they had to choose the spacious main staircase.
The main staircase is very luxurious. You can barely hear footsteps when your shoes step on the carpet. But what really caught Jiang Cheng's attention was the mirror that was taller than a person at the corner of the staircase.
This immediately reminded Jiang Cheng that in the newspaper story, there was a huge mirror, and the strange thing was that after every fire, the nameless charred corpse would appear in front of the mirror.
Unfortunately, the hotel has been renovated at this time, and Jiang Cheng found no other clues near the mirror.
Following the stairs, they went all the way to the 3rd floor.
Chenran took out the key and looked at everyone, "There are two keys for this floor. Which of you wants to live here?"
Seeing no one answered, Su Xiaoxiao raised his hand "I can live on this floor, but I only need one room for my brother and I."
Su Xiaoxiao took the key from Chenran's hand and just turned around. Before opening the door, Zhou Tong suddenly said, "Give me a key too. I want to live on this floor too."
Zhou Tong stared at Su Xiaoxiao with a playful expression, "I want to be neighbors with Miss Su." (End of Chapter)
