Chapter 5 The First Night
After lunch, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Lunch is sliced bread sealed in a bag. It can only be eaten with water.
After confirming that there is a supernatural presence in this hotel, the principle of "loneliest people must die" prevented them from acting alone.
Wei Miao opened the curtains in the room, and the sunlight that fell was warm and bright, dispelling the coldness of the room.
Around 2 p.m., Bude organized another search, this time searching the second floor.
The second floor is the functional area, where the restaurant, laundry room, etc. are located. There are more sundries, so searching is time-consuming and laborious.
After getting nowhere, the time came to around five o'clock. After a few people had dinner, they gathered on the third floor.
However, only their four rooms on the third floor could be opened, and the other rooms were locked, with darkness leaking from the cracks in the doors. Therefore, after looking left and right, Bude admitted that this floor was not worth searching.
The four of them came to the fourth floor, and the situation here was slightly different.
There are the same thirteen rooms, but the key card of each room is inserted directly into the groove, so they can easily enter the room to explore.
Wei Miao entered 401, fumbled with her right hand to turn on the light, and saw that the layout was the same as her room, nothing more ordinary.
Then why is the room on the third floor locked? Is there some ulterior secret hidden in it?
They searched all thirteen rooms until nine o'clock in the evening.
Wei Miao found blood stains and even some suspicious dried minced meat in some hidden corners of multiple rooms. She looked at them silently for a few times, then turned and left.
"Searching like this is just a waste of time and effort. There are no clues at all." Anderson said harshly. He searched very hard but found nothing, which made him a little annoyed.
Bud comforted: "We've just reached the fourth floor, right? Even if those who took us out of prison wanted to play, we would have given some clues. If we act earlier, we will have more clues." Take the initiative."
But Edith said: "I'm tired and want to rest early."
She stretched out, showing off her hot figure.
Anderson shouted: "I agree! I'm tired too."
Wei Miao was also a little tired, but she didn't show it, but looked at Bude.
Now it seems that this is the only reliable person. She just needs to remain silent, observe from the sidelines, and let him come forward.
Bude looked at the two of them helplessly: "Well, rest early, recharge yourself, and check again tomorrow."
Wei Miao nodded to him with a smile, Return to your room.
It's a bit too early to go to bed after nine o'clock. As for taking a bath... this may not be something she can touch.
There was also a TV in the room. Wei Miao found the remote control and tried to turn it on.
With the chirping sound of the startup music, the LCD screen of the TV actually lit up, and it seemed that the evening news was being broadcast. The female host's expression was serious and pitiful.
“Our news: At 6:14 this evening, a large-scale supernatural incident occurred in Bangshan Garden Community, Litai Mansion, Yuexiang City, Sudelai Prefecture. More than 3,000 people living in the community were killed. Except for Lingshe is deploying additional manpower to try to resolve the incident and try to mitigate the impact of the incident. It is understood that the source of this incident may be an alarmingly powerful spirit. At present, the community has been classified as a level A risk area. Please ask nearby residents. Escape as soon as possible.”
In the picture shown, the entire high-end community was lifeless. At the entrance, there were a few gloomy-looking people carrying various equipment and entering in teams. Guards were dozens of meters away. Raise the cordon. Ambulances and fire trucks were parked not far away, and several reporters were surrounding them, with cameras pointed at the community.
Wei Miao keenly captured the key information points: except Lingshe, Ling, and A-level risk areas. Based on the introduction, it seems that the Spirit Exorcist Society is the organization where the spirit exorcists work. Ghosts are called "spirits" here, and areas where supernatural events have occurred are classified into different levels of risk areas. Moreover, supernatural events are open to the whole society, and ordinary people can only live passively and bear the risks of supernatural beings.
Wei Miao continued to watch, but what followed was some ordinary social news. About fifteen minutes later, another supernatural event was broadcast.
“Our news: The strange and paranormal incident that occurred at Luther Zoo on June 4 was solved by the local ghost removal society yesterday. The family members of the victims were extremely excited, saying that the victims could finally rest in peace and wished to hurt the victims. Pain and supernatural beings are far away from them. "
The ghosts in the strange and paranormal incidents seem to be different from spirits. In the picture, the zoo is in a mess as if it has been run over by a large truck. The trees are crooked, the fences are twisted, and there is violence everywhere. The traces of destruction and even some blood stains on the ground have not been cleaned up.
Wei Miao sat on the bed, watching TV with an expressionless face, fully understanding the outside world. I have to say that the world view of "Masquerade" is very complete, almost like a real world.
The world here is similar to Blue Star, but there is only one continent, and two countries divide the continent into two. The country they are in now is called Lanche, with a structure similar to the Federation, and the other country is called Teng Yu. The two compete with each other, but when it comes to supernatural incidents, both have set up spirit-removing societies as processing agencies to work together.
Ranche's daily life entertainment is not weakened by the supernatural. Instead, it has the flavor of "entertaining oneself to death". There is even a singing program called "Jini Taimei", and the venue is similar to a basketball court. , mainly funny.
Wei Miao glanced at the time, and the short hand was almost pointing to twelve o'clock.
She got up and turned off the light, went to bed in the dark, and slept in her clothes.
Sinking into the soft bed quilt, Wei Miao instantly felt sleepy, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
"Dong-dong-dong-"
Suddenly, a series of strange sounds woke Wei Miao up.
She recognized the bed and slept lightly in a strange place. Because the door was soundproofed, the sound was not loud, but she still woke up immediately.
She remained motionless in her sleeping position, raising her ears to identify carefully.
The sound seemed to come from the corridor, very regular, like... footsteps.
But it's not like the crisp popping sound of ordinary shoes stepping on the ground, but a dull sound.
Wei Miao thought for a moment and felt that this was like the sound of walking barefoot. Who would be wandering around barefoot at this late hour?
The sound went from far to near, and then from near to far, repeating this several times, constantly echoing in the corridor.
Now Wei Miao is sure that this is definitely not a human being. Let’s not talk about whether the other three players have the courage to go out at this time. Even if they go out, what lunatic would go back and forth in the corridor?
Suddenly, the footsteps stopped.
Stop in front of her door.
“Creak-squeak-well-”
Another strange noise, it sounded like the door handle was pressed down and the door was pushed open.
But the door is automatically locked. Logically speaking, it cannot be opened without the room card! And now the key card is in her pocket!
Moreover, she clearly remembered that the door sliding in this room made no sound!
